This is continuing off of chapter 6, as it's again the day after your phone was taken due to the rando on it.
-Reader POV-
I woke up, as the sensation of a body being under mine went through me. My vision was blurry, as the room was still dark. I looked up, barely seeing the outline of a face. My body froze, before I remembered yesterday. Oh...I guess this is going to be awkward. I was going to try and get off of him, but when I attempted to lift myself up, I felt his arms  on my back, unmoving. I sighed, as I didn't want to wake him up. I stayed where I was, feeling slightly uncomfortable. My eyes closed in an attempt to go to sleep again, but I was too aware to slip back into that state. I sighed again, as I decided to make myself comfortable. Eyes staring blankly at the wall, I got lost in my thoughts. How long is this thing going to be? I'm just hoping I'm not going to make any enemies while I'm here, especially considering how Tundra is. I'm just thankful that Blast saw what was happening yesterday, otherwise...
I heard a 'Hmm?' as Blast's body started to move. I closed my eyes, pretending to be asleep. There was a moment of silence, before I heard him mutter,"Huh."
His grip on me tightened a little, as he turned slightly as well. I didn't know if he was awake or not, as I decided to open my eyes. The soft glow of his eyes were visible, as I heard him whisper,"Good morning."
My voice groaned as I stretched. Blast kept his grip, as he watched me. He chuckled a little, as he asked,"Did you sleep well?"
I nodded, as I turned to look up at him,asking in a sleepy tone,"How about you?"
He shrugged,"I guess I slept well, but can't exactly sleep badly cause I can just go online and offline."
I hummed in agreement, as he let me go,"Ok, let's get up."
I got off of him as I stood there in the dark room. I could barely see the outline of things, but not exactly. Blast had gotten up, as his softly glowing eyes are now slightly above me . He started walking over to the light, as I covered my eyes. I jokingly hissed, as Blast chuckled,"What are you, a vampire?"
I was being a little dramatic,"My eyes!"
He just shook his head, snickering, before copying my actions. My eyes slowly got used to the light, as I sighed in relief. I still didn't noticed Blast copying me, before he decided to stop and head to his laptop. Blast opened it, as it turned on and showed what he was working on last night. I tried to look around for a clock, but decided to look at the computer. I walked over behind him, as I looked at the time.
8:35 am
Blast's head turned, as he asked curiously, looking at me,"Whatcha looking at?"
I turned around, as I went to my bag,"I'm just seeing what time it is."
He nodded, noticing I was searching through the bag. He seemed a bit uncomfortable, guessing why I was going through it,"Do I need to go in the closet real quick, or?"
I shrugged as I grabbed the clothes, masking my slowly leaking awkwardness into the situation," Sure, let's just get that out of the way."
He got up, as he went back in the closet. Blast warned,"Might want to hurry up, cause the others may be online as well. I'm pretty sure the last thing you want is a robot walking in on you." He smirked jokingly at his little comment.
I nodded at the warning, as he went all the way into the closet. I got myself changed quickly, swapping out everything for my day clothes. Before I said I was done, I stuffed my dirty clothes into the backpack and got out my brush,"Ok I'm done."
Blast hesitantly got out of the closet, as he looked at me for a second. He gave a thumbs up, as he asked with slight sarcasm,"So, what do you think of the horrendous outfit?"
I snickered, rolling my eyes," It's good."
He smiled a little, as he said,"Good. So, what are we going to do today?"
I sat down on the bed as I began to brush my hair," Could we go to my house? I kinda need to do my commissions and all that."
Blast nodded understandingly, as he sat at the desk and grabbed a paper and a pencil,"I figured, as you always seem to be working on those. Just let me write a little note so Light doesn't freak out." He paused before he mumbled,"Don't wanna give the old man a heart attack."
I hummed in response, as I continued to untangle my (h/c) hair, unaware of the last part Blast said. My eyes looked over at Blast, as I saw his hand writing. It was kinda choppy, as it looked like he was trying to write the note in as little time as possible. He then stood up, as he held the paper in his hand. Blast turned towards me, saying,"I'll be right back, I've just gotta put this on his desk. I'm guessing he's still asleep, but either way, I don't want him yelling at me this early in the morning."
I nodded in response, asking,"So....I should stay here?"
He did a 'kinda' hand signal, as he shrugged,"Maybe, because you are kinda new here. You don't know your way around just yet.... I think."
I shrugged back,"Fair enough."
He grinned a little, as the door opened,"Ok, I'll be right back y/n!"
I waved, causing him to copy my motion. The door closed, as the room was left in silence. I finished brushing my hair, being free from the mess of tangles. The brush was set on the bed, as I looked around for a second. My eyes stared at the ground, not knowing what to do to pass the time. I crossed my legs and place my elbow on my knee, as I moved my head onto my palm. I wonder how far away the office is. Maybe it's gonna take a while, considering how big this place is. It's basically a maze. Someone walked in, as Roll smiled, seeming a little surprised,"Oh! Hi y/n."
I turned to her, as I waved in greeting,"Good morning Roll, how are you?"
She entered the room, the door shutting behind her,"I'm doing great. I didn't expect you to be in here, considering I ran into Blast in the hallway."
I looked at her confusedly as to why she was in here, as she explained,"I usually come in the robot master's rooms to clean them. I'm actually surprised he got his room to stay clean for once, he usually blows me off about it every time."
I snickered, ratting Blast out slightly,"Wasn't like this yesterday."
She turned to me, looking shocked,"Nooo, you couldn't."
I smiled a little, as I asked,"What?"
Roll sat down next to me, as she made a broad gesture to the room,"I've never been able to get Blastman to help clean his room EVER. The fact that you, on your first try, got him to help is shocking!"
I was chuckling, as I realized how similar her response to the room being clean was similar to how I reacted to learning she cleaned everything."What?" She asked with child-like curiosity.
I turned to look at her, as I said,"You should've seen my reaction to learning you had to clean it up. I was pretty shocked as well. Like, yeah, kids have to do chores, but jeez, how much do you have to do?"
Roll snickered, giggling,"Oh, it's not that bad! Atleast....if you ignore Gutsman, Bombman, and this room."
I rose a brow, as my eyes widened. She giggled at my response, giving a bit more detail,"Their rooms are war zones."
I sighed,"Oh boy, that doesn't sound good."
She shook her head,"Yeah. They just kinda throw their stuff EVERYWHERE."
I felt slightly empathy towards her, as I remembered having to pick up after my parents often before I moved out,"I feel you on that."
We continued to chat a little more, the two of us getting along quite well. Roll seemed to enjoy the company of another female, as another robot master had left the lab prior to this month to pursue a career of modeling.
Eventually, there was a pause in our chatter, as Roll smiled," It's nice to have a full on break for once in the middle of cleaning the rooms. I usually space the disastrous trio's rooms out in my routine, so I don't go crazy. After this, I usually got to check up on Acidman." She grinned as she continued,"He is a major germaphobe, so I don't really need to clean up much. Occasionally though, there is a vial or tissue to dispose of, but otherwise it's fine."
I paused, as I asked,"Acidman is the green one that looks like he's constantly snorkeling right?"
She nodded, laughing a little at my description. I smiled a bit, as Blast walked in. He said,"Ok, so you ready to go y/n?"
He noticed Roll, smiling nervously, as he remembered a comment she had made yesterday to him while I was spaced out,"Oh hey Roll."
She noticed, as she smirked, knowing exactly what was up,"What? Something wrong?"
He tried to stay calm and collected, as he scoffed with a faked tone,"No, why would something be wrong?"
She chuckled, as she mischievously responded,"Hmm, well, if you actually cleaned your room for once when you never ever usually, and it was only when Y/n was present...Im thinking my little guess is correct."
I butted in, as I felt curiosity take over, unaware to the underlying conversation tone," What are you two talking about?"
Roll turned to me, after winking at Blast. He flinched at this, sending a subtle glare towards the blond robotic child. She answered calmly," Well, it's just a theory that I've made about you and Blast."
I raised a brow, as I innocently asked,"Ok? What is the theory?"
She tried not to burst into giggles, as she explained further," I think the only reason why he actually cleaned his room, is because he l-."
Right before she could spell it out, Blast put a halt to the social treason Roll was about to commit. Roll looked at Blast with a,"Why did you do this?", expression, as Blast shook his head with a low grumble. He stopped her to prevent anything to happen to the extremely friendly friendship between us, but also seemed to have another factor at play, as he seemed to be trying to pretend that he wasn't blushing slightly.
I sighed, as I rolled my eyes, disappointed,"Fine."
Roll sat there for a second, before she grabbed the broom she brought in stealthily earlier. She jabbed Blast with it, as he recoiled, removing his hand from over her mouth. Roll sighed in relief, as she got up,"I would love to keep this conversation going, but I've gotta continued my schedule. Bye y/n! Bye....Blast."
Roll seemed to sneer when she said his name, as he grumbled,"Great, Finally."
I nodded, as I smiled,"See ya Roll, talk to you later!"
She smiled at this, as she replied,"I hope so!"
I smiled back at her, as the door shut. Blast kept up his annoyed demeanor, before the shell cracked and showed a more soft side, or the side I've associated with him more,"She seems happy to talk to another girl. There used to be another female robot master, before she went and got into modeling."
I raised a brow in confusion at the lack of details, as he shrugged, not wanting to explain," Whatever. So, do you want to head to your house now?"
I nodded, as I sighed,"Might as well get it out of the way."
He smiled as he said with a knowing tone,"I figured."
I got up, as I hugged him. He seemed caught off guard, before he hugged back. We stayed like that for a while, until Blast broke the silence,"Ok, close your eyes."
I nodded as my eyes shut closed, Blast did his little countdown,"Ok. 3...2...1.."
Bwop
I opened my eyes, as Blast let go of me. I sighed at the familiar sight of home, as I went to the kitchen and made myself breakfast...or I was going to until Blast pulled me away from it and offered,"I'll make you breakfast y/n, how about you just go start on your commissions?"
I smiled gratefully, as I thanked,"Thanks Blast, I appreciate it."
He smiled as he turned to go through my kitchen. I felt slightly concerned about how he would be, but decided to follow an old saying. Turning, I went to my office and sat down at the desk. I turned on my computer, as I logged in. Immediately after the computer loaded up, what seemed like a million messages popped up from my mom. I muttered in a worried tone,"Oh mother..."
Clicking the messages, I decided to respond to her, but gave as little information to what was going on. A feeling of sadness seemed to be growing, as I felt awfully for making her worry. It's was like picking at a bandaid. I sent the message,'Sorry mom, I lost my phone. I'm guessing it died, because I haven't been able to call it. Sorry for worrying you!'
I sighed, as I decided to hurry up and finish the commissions. I didn't want to be by the computer if she messaged me back.
—30 minutes later—
I had finished two, as I had to do three today. I felt uneasy the entire time though, seeing as there was the occasional groan from outside the door. My door swung open, as I jumped from the sudden noise, the door crashing against the wall from the sudden force,"I'm done! Get out here!"
I had a small smile, oh boy, let's see how this goes. Blast grabbed my hand, getting me out of the chair. He seemed excited, as he said,"Guess what I was able to make."
I tilted my head to the side, as I asked,"What?"
He smiled, as he said proudly ," I made pancakes!"
I turned to the kitchen, as I saw it was a little dirty. There was a few questionable patches of pancake mix on the cabinets, as I questioned if Blast got a little upset while making them. At the counter, there was a stack of three pancakes, as a glass of milk was next to it. I felt happy, as I turned to Blast, smiling. He smiled back, as he ushered,"Come on, try them! I can't really tell how they taste...BUT I BET THEY ARE STILL GOOD! Just because I'm a robot, doesn't mean I can't cook."
I giggled a little, as I walked over to the counter, sitting down. Blast sat down next to me, as he watched me. Grabbing the fork, I cut myself a piece of the food. I raised it to my mouth(if you don't like pancakes, just pretend you do here ;) ), as I ate it. It tasted great actually, as I felt a grin on my face. Blast inquired curiously,"Sooo, how is it?"
I gave him a thumbs up, as I swallowed it,"It's really good Blast, you did a great job."
He seemed to be happy about this, as I unintentionally fed his pride and ego a little. He puffed up his chest, as he proclaimed cockily,"I knew it, I just needed a little confirmation."
I snickered at him, as I continued to eat. He continued to watch me, as he asked,"How many more commissions do you have to do?"
I paused, as I dipped a piece of the pancake in syrup. The fork hovered over the plate, as I answered,"I only have one more to do. It's quite small today, so we get to hang out a bit more." I smiled at the end, before continuing to eat.
Blast smiled back, as he said,"Great! Then I'll just clean this up while you do that."
I nodded, as I was halfway done with the breakfast. Wow, he's being super helpful today. I kinda wonder why that is though...There was a silence for a couple of seconds, before I felt a tinge of curiosity. I asked,"Hey Blast?"
He nodded, as he turned his face to look at me. I inquired,"Do you ever eat?"
He chuckled a little, with a slightly disappointed tone, as he shook his head,"No, not exactly. The only thing I can technically 'consume' are eTanks."
I was confused for a second, before remembering the cans in Blast's room when we had to clean it. I decided to try and confirm it, as I asked,"Were those the cans that were sprinkled all over your room?"
He nodded, as he said,"Yeah. I don't usually have so many, but I guess I was just so absorbed with what I was doing."
I raised a brow in suspicion at his vagueness, but then shrugged it off, as I finished my food. Before I could grab my plate to take it to the sink, Blast swiped it away. He wore a grin, as I went to take the plate from him,"I can do it myself Blast."
He responded,"But I'm the one cleaning the kitchen, am I not?"
I tried to get the plate, as I was now determined to wash it myself,"But I can do my own plate."
He held it above me, as I cursed his height. I tried to jump up to get it, but it was still out of my reach. Blast was chuckling the entire time, as he taunted,"You might need to jump higher~"
I tried to jump as high as I can, as I was almost able to grab the plate. Blast smirked, as he said," I win."
I pretended to give up, walking away slowly,"Fine...but Blast."
Blast turned, as he seemed suspicious,"Hmm?"
I tackled him in an attempt to get the plate, as he started falling backwards,"Y/N!!"
We both hit the ground with a thud, as he still held the plate. I snickered, as I snatched it from his hand. Quickly, I tried to get off of him in time to get away, but he grabbed my free arm before I could. Blast wore a smirk, as he said, sitting up,"Nuh uh uh y/n, you're not winning that easily~"
I responded with a cocky tone,"Oh yeah? We'll see about that!"
In an attempt to get to the sink, I tried to yank my arm away. Blast was chuckling, before I felt a tug on my arm. I ignored it, before being pulled towards him, as I fell onto him again. My face was smushed against his stomach area, as I went cherry red. My hand unwillingly let go of the plate, as Blast took it triumphantly. I quickly got up, as I retreated to my office without saying a word. I heard him snicker before I closed the door, as he mumbled something that I couldn't hear. My hand turned the lights off, as my body went under the desk, leaving me to try and recover control over my face. I felt more flustered than I have been in my entire life, as the moment replayed on repeat in my brain. The soft sounds of dishes being cleaned could be heard from outside the door, but I ignored the sound. Time quickened around me, as soon enough, I heard knocking on the door,"Y/n?"
I didn't respond, as I silently questioned, Why is he suddenly knocking on the door? He's never done that before. The door cracked open a little, before I heard him say,"Jeez, Why is it so dark in here?"
Blast flipped the light switch as I was revealed, my face peeking out from behind my arms. Blast shook his head, as he asked,"You're not still flustered about that are you?"
I tried to talk, as I stumbled upon my words,"W-Well, imagine i-if y-you randomly f-face planted into m-my stomach. How would you react?!"
He paused, before I caught a quick flush of pink on his face. Blast shook his head, as he responded,"I would act normal, not like t-this."
I looked at him skeptically, as I pointed out,"B-But, you j-just stuttered."
Blast rolled his eyes,"Oh, shut up."
I snickered at my small victory, as Blast inquired curiously,"So, are we going to come out from under the desk now?"
I shook my head, as I responded jokingly,"Nope, this is my cave now."
Blast laughed a little, as he crouched down,"Well then, I guess I might just have to get you out of there myself."
I raised a brow, as I asked semi-tauntingly,"Oh really? How do you plan on doing that?"
He grabbed my ankles, as he dragged me out from under the desk,"Like this!"
I snorted, before breaking out laughing. Blast laughed as well, as he continued to drag me on the floor, before stopping in the living room. He picked me up off the floor, before he said," Another win for me."
I rolled my eyes, as I said in a sarcastic tone,"Yeah right, sure."
Blast caught my tone, as he asked,"Got something to say?"
I grinned, as I inquired,"How does that qualify as a win?"
He smiled, as he said with innocence,"I got you to laugh, that's how I won."
I didn't notice the small amount of blush on my face, as I responded with a small smile,"Last time I checked this wasn't a try not to laugh challenge."
Blast simply shrugged, as he sat down. I tried to sit next to him, but as I was about to, he grabbed my wrist and pulled me towards himself. I stumbled a little, falling backwards onto his lap, facing up towards him. Despite him being made of metal, it didn't hurt to fall on him, as I noticed the small blush on his face. He smiled nervously, as he said,"Sorry, I didn't mean to cause you to fall."
I looked at him skeptically, as I remained how I was,"What were you trying to do?"
Blast hugged me, as he replied non-chalantly,"I wanted a hug."
I snickered, as I returned the hug,"You could have just asked for one."
I heard him huff a little, as if embarrassed he didn't do that first, as I found it funny how he reacts sometimes. We stayed like that for a second, before I sprang up when I remembered,"WAIT! IVE STILL GOT ONE MORE COMMISSION TO DO!"
Blast didn't seem surprised, as he pouted fakely," Aww, Dang it."
I ran over to my office, practically throwing myself into the chair. Blast stayed on the couch, as he seemed to be entertained by how I was handling it. My computer didn't log off, so I was able to just get straight into the final piece. I read it over, as I sighed in relief. It was an easy one. All I had to do was draw a rose themed creature. I heard the sound of footsteps drawing near, assuming it was my robot companion. It feels weird to call him a robot, seeing as I don't feel like that describes him well enough. He does his own thing, and seems so...so... human, in a way.
As I was starting to do the final outline, I felt a head on my shoulder, and the soft sound of breathing. My face reddened a little, as Blast hummed,"How much longer are you going to be working on this?"
I turned my face a little, as I replied," N-Not much longer. I just have to outline, color, and shade."
Thankfully, he didn't noticed my stutter, as he replied,"Cool, I guess I'll just sit over here then."
I nodded, not noticing him sitting in the corner with a mischievous grin, as it seemed like he wasn't going to let that go anytime soon. There was a silence, as I was focused on getting the commission done quickly. After about fifteen minutes, I managed to get it done, as I sighed,"Aaaaand done."
Blast remained on the floor, as he looked at the image on screen,"That looks awesome n/n.(nickname)"
I had a slight blush as I turned to look at Blast, surprised at the sudden use of a nickname. He seemed to blush slightly, as he said embarrassedly,"Sorry, slip of the tongue."
I raised a brow, as I decided to poke a little,"If you say so Blasty."
Immediately, the pigment increased in his cheeks, as he tried to say something, but only left his mouth open to indicate that. I giggled a little, as he looked at me with an ounce of frustration,"What's so funny?!"
I smiled, as I answered," Usually you would be the one poking fun at something."
There was a pause, before he slowly started to smile. He sighed,"I guess you're right there."
He raised his hands in fake defeat, as he said jokingly,"Ya got me."
I shook my head as I snickered, before a ding was heard. Blast rolled his eyes a little at the timing, before he pulled out his phone. He checked it, looking confused,"That wasn't me."
I looked at the computer, as the message appeared. I felt a small amount off dread, as I saw the contact before the message.
'Mom' sent you a message!
'Oh, well I hope you find it soon! If not, that's the second phone this week. But I'm glad you're online right now, because I need to talk to you about something.'
I gulped, as I clicked on the notification. I placed my hands on the keyboard, ready to type, before freezing up due to fearing what she wanted to talk about. I slowly typed my response,'Ok, what is it?'
I pressed enter, as the message sent. The typing bubble appeared, as Blast asked,"Is it ok if I read your conversation, or no?"
I sighed, as I said reluctantly,"Sure."
There was some mumbling from Blast, but I wasn't able to hear it because of the noise from my computer when my mom responded.
' I got this weird call from the police. It was something about whether or not I got a message from some suspect or something. Was there something on the news that I didn't catch?'
I paused, as I looked over at Blast for help. He seemed to be surprised, but not shocked. He looked at me, as he suggested,"Try lying about it being on the news."
I nodded, as I began to type, before pausing,"Should I say that it's apart of some scam kind of thing?"
I heard him hum in response,"Mhm."
My fingers finished typing the rest of it, as I sent it to her,' Yeah, there was something about a scammer pretending to be a company. I got the same thing, but apparently the scammer uses the same number for everyone, so the cops are just kinda double checking I guess.'
Blast seemed to think this was a good disguise, as he spoke,"Yeah, that seems like something that would happen. Hopefully she buys it, but I mean, why wouldn't she?"
He seemed to be a little cocky about it, as I sat there nervously. She messaged back, as my mom had typed,'Oh? It seems a lot of bad has happened recently then. First it's the murders, and now scammers. What's next, Wily getting out?'
I immediately typed in response,'Don't jinx it Mom.'
There was a huff, as Blast scoffed,"If that old geyser got out, I would blast him off into space!"
An ounce of anger could be sensed in Blast's threat. I remembered when he brought up an encounter with the fiend a few days ago, when Blast very briefly explained why he was being updated before he left. I was going to ask about it, as I opened my mouth to speak, but had my mom respond,' It's not likely to happen y/n, calm down. But, I have another thing I want to ask you.'
I nodded, more so to myself, causing a small snicker from my robot company,' Okay, what?'
I was slightly nervous, before I read her response with shock,'Well, I was thinking that maybe I could come up and visit you! It's kinda boring up here, especially considering that your dad went on a business trip.'
I spoke aloud, as I felt confused on what to do,"Uhhhhhhhh...."
I turned to Blast once again, as he seemed to be unsure towards this. He shrugged at me, as he answered with casualness,"It's up to you, I'd just have to inform Light that we're both hanging out here at your house tonight if so. I'd have to keep you two company, but that's not going to be an issue."
I raised a brow at his last statement, as I heard the confident tone he held,"Oh really?"
He nodded,"Yeah! I get along with almost anyone, so this won't be that bad."
I sighed, as I showed a weak smile. My eyes went to the screen, before my voice sounded,"It would be nice to see her for once. I just hope she doesn't mind your addition Blast."
I typed to her, as I said,'Yeah, Sure! Also, I hope you don't mind Blast hanging out with us. He doesn't really have anything to do tomorrow.'
I felt my moral rise, as I started to become a bit more optimistic,"Maybe we could all go shopping or go to the park."
Blast smiled, as I noticed his happiness increase slightly after my positivity increase,"Of course! Or maybe we blow stuff up!"
I giggled, as I felt a slight heat increase in my cheeks,"Only you."
His expression changed to one of confusion, as I smiled,"You would be the one setting them off."
He nodded, as he pridefully said,"Only the best. Can't have some amateur do it."
I was going to respond, but heard the ding from my computer, as I saw,' Lovely! The more the merrier! It would be great to meet one of your friends as well.'
I smiled joyfully, as I texted/typed back,'Cool! Then how about you come over here at 12 tomorrow?'
Blast questioned curiously,"Why twelve?"
I answered with a positive tone,"So we have time to prepare and all that. Also, it will be around lunch time then, so we could plan around that."
Blastman nodded, as he understood. The final ding of the day rung, as my mom texted,'Great, it's a plan then! See you tomorrow xoxo.'
I responded back with a,' See ya then mom xo'
The conversation between us ended, as I smiled in anticipation of tomorrow's plans. The tab closed, as my final commission appeared on screen. It was almost done, but I wasn't quite satisfied with it. My mood dwindled a little, as I reluctantly picked up my stylus. Before I could do anything however, my hand was grabbed by another's, as the stylus was gently taken out of my hand,"Why don't we call it good here? It looks fantastic."
I looked at Blast for a second, as I considered it. My mind choose to listen to him, as I nodded, sending it off as it was. A satisfied smile grew on Blast's face, as he asked jokingly," Wow, you actually took my advice?"
I shook my head, as I laughed," I might as well, but we're going to prepare for tomorrow."
He nodded, as he sighed,"Fair enough."
I got up, as I stretched from my period of sitting. Blast signed me off the computer, as he was about to walk out of the office. Before he exited however, he jabbed at my side, as a high pitched squeak erupted from me. I quickly turned to look at him, as he was snickering. My face tried to stay straight for as long as it could, but eventually I failed as I giggled at how dumb it was. There was a cheerful mood in the air, as Blast smiled back. We left the office and went to the kitchen, as we both sat down at the counter. Blast leaned up on the it a little, as he turned to look at me,"So, what are we gonna do first?"
I looked around, as I suggested,"Maybe the living room?"
He nodded, as he said with a slight reluctance in his tone,"Ok then, let's get this boredom over with."
I shook my head at his response, as I responded,"It's not gonna be that bad."
-3:32 p:m(five hours later)-
Blast and I laid on the ground, as there was a silence. The house was finally clean, as we had done a thorough clean, finding embarrassing and funny items. I made the mistake of letting Blast clean the bathroom, as he had found a rouge wrapper hiding under the sink. It was an awkward moment when that happened, but thankfully there was only one. Blast spoke first, as he laughed,"That took a lot longer than expected."
I sighed,"No kidding."
He turned onto his stomach, as he looked down at me,"Soooooo, now that we've got that done, how about we do something fun?"
I looked up at him, as I made eye contact,"Sure, what do you having in mind?"
He paused before he said embarrassedly,"Well, there's this game that I've been wanting to try for a while, but..."
I raised a brow, as I was confused as to why he was embarrassed,"But what?"
He looked away,"Only Rock and Roll play it, so it's kinda a kids game."
My arms crossed, as I was getting more confused by the second,"Ok? What's wrong with that?"
He seemed to be making a bigger deal out of this than needed, as he finally got to the point,"Can we play hide and seek?"
I nodded, as I said,"Of course! I played that yesterday with Rock and Roll, with the addition of Iceman as well."
He seemed relieved, as he grinned,"Great, so I'll go first then?"
I shrugged, sitting up,"Sure, but why don't we add a twist?"
Blast was intrigued by this, as he asked,"Oh? And what would that be?"
I smiled, as I said,"We turn the lights off!"
He nodded, as he got up,"Yeah, that sounds like fun!"
Following his actions, I lifted myself off the ground, as I turned the lights off,"Cool! Then start counting!"
His chuckle rang in the darkness, as his eyes disappeared. His voice boomed,"ONE! TWO! THREE!"
Blast continued counting down, as I tried to find a good place to hide. I considered the office, but decided against it. Thankfully, right as he was about to finish his countdown, I found the perfect spot: Under my bed. There was nothing under it, and it was pretty dark, so he wouldn't be able to find me without a flashlight or something. As I got comfy, I heard Blast yell,"READY OR NOT HERE I COME! PREPARE TO LOSE!"
I smirked, as I silently retorted,"Yeah right!"
There was a silence as I couldn't hear anything outside the door for a long time. My breathing was pretty quiet, as there was a surprising calmness to the dark....
Or atleast until someone's footsteps could be heard going up the stairs. I grinned, as the door opened with a click. Blast didn't bother even being silent, as he said boastfully,"If you think you could trick me by hiding in here, you are wrong!". I refrained myself from snickering, as my grin just widened instead. My eyes had gotten used to this darkness, as I tried to look for Blast, seeing his feet walk around the room. Remaining still, I stayed under the bed, as I swear I heard a slight groan of annoyance from him. There was a slight tension, until Blast paused. He spoke, as I noticed he turned to face the bed,"Wait a minute..."
I held my breath, hearing him talk to himself,"I haven't checked under here yet."
The tension increased, reaching its max when Blast's slightly glowing eyes meet mine. I saw their shapes change to an expression of pride, as he yelled triumphantly,"Found ya y/n!"
I laughed, teasing,"Took you long enough."
He rolled his eyes, as he went to turn the lights on. This confused me, as I crawled out from under the bed,"Don't you want to have a turn hiding?"
He nodded, before he groaned,"Yeah, but I got a call from Torch while I was looking for you. Apparently there is concern that something happened to us or whatever." There was a pause before he mumbled,"Doc worries too much sometimes."
I was confused for a second, before I remembered. Understandingly, I nodded,"I can kinda see that." I paused, before I joked, trying to lighten the mood and ignore my slowly growing fear of the ordeal growing in the background,"I bet Tundra would be thrilled if it was confirmed."
Blast seemed to show a shred of concern at this comment, before simply agreeing with a huff,"You're not wrong there."
I stood up, as I yawned a little. Blast looked at me for a second, before he smirked. He asked with a teasing tone,"Were you able to sleep at all last night? Or were you up all night staring at me?"
I blushed a little, as I laughed nervously,"You wish." I paused, as I yawned again,"All that cleaning must have worn me out."
He rolled his eyes, as he said,"I'll go and tell Dr.Light by myself about the plans for tomorrow then. You just try and sleep."
I nodded, as he added,"And if I see you forcing yourself to stay up when I get back, I'm gonna embarrass you infront of your mom."
I smiled tiredly, as I shook my head,"Yeah right."
He grinned at something before changing back to a neutral look,"Well then, watch yourself while I'm gone."
I hummed in acknowledgement as I walked over to my closet, hearing the sound that I've grown to associate with teleportation follow quickly after. I looked through my stuff and decided on just wearing my huge shirt dress for pajamas. I paused and looked at myself in the mirror for a second, before immediately questioning my actions, as I turned and basically threw myself out of the closet. There was a calming silence in the room, as I turned off all the lights, going under my covers. My mind was swirling with random thoughts, ranging from what all of us were going to do tomorrow to what the sky would look like if it was on fire or something. These quieted over time as I drifted off into a deep sleep, rolling the dice on if I was going to be receiving a dream or not.

Nobody's P.O.V:
It had been a while since any sounds were heard from the interior of the house, as a darkened figure lurked around the home. There was a jingle heard from the back door, before it slowly opened up. A shadow moved amongst the lightless home, but no footsteps to be heard. The only sign that somebody, or something, had committed B&E was two glowing red dots in the position of eyes. Technically, there was two, but nobody would be able to hear the soft movement of fabric occurring. The red dots hovered, as they floated towards the office, a hand brushing the keyboard, stirring the computer to awake. Silently, the intruder injected a flash drive into one of the slots on the back, causing the screen to flash blue before automatically gaining them access after. A satisfied look would normally be visible, but you wouldn't be able to tell by how dim the lighting was. Not even the computer gave off enough light to illuminate their face, not like it would matter. Softly pressed keys were audible, as the hand that awakened the computer was joined by another, working together to show what was to not be seen by anyone except for you. The messages were brought up, a 'hmm' being heard.
'So, it seems that possibly the three of them will be having a get together tomorrow?'
' What a convenience."
' If that spiky theme park mascot is going to constantly be guarding the bait, then it seems that we're going to have to.... rearrange some pieces here.'
It had been a couple of minutes, as a muffled sound was heard through the ceiling from the upper floor.
Bwop!
The computer was quickly put to rest, as the flash drive was ripped out. As silent as the night, the shadow quickly escaped the house, leaving no evident traces anywhere. Nothing heard the soft tear of rushed stitched fabric, as a piece of cloth floated down faintly. The door was shut, leaving the house to only hold two for the night. A light upstairs was turned on, revealing a sleeping h/c (hair color) haired female to be resting. A relieved smile found its way to the robotic companion's face, as they put down a f/c backpack down by the bed. His red eyes looked upon the girl for a minute, before taking off his chest plate. Blastman was about to take off his helmet, before deciding against it, as he wasn't sure if he wanted to show what was beneath it yet. The sneaky shadow prior had been released into the pitch black of night, as the robot master turned off the lights and crept into bed next to his 'friend'. There was a moment of hesitation before his arms wrapped around the human's figure, causing a small blush to arise on both faces. In the human's case, her reaction was from her dream playing out in her head. In Blastman's case, he was contemplating something. There was a small feeling he had obtained upon meeting this individual, which he had brushed off until now. At first, it was mistaken to be a fixed version of joy due to a new friend. Then, it evolved into a feeling of comfort, and soon enough, the robot started to question his coding. There was nothing to describe what he was experiencing, as this...emotion, never lined up with any prior that he'd had. Joy, relaxed, comfort: they all were apart of it, but never completely fit in the slot. He had thought about talking to Doctor Light about it, but he didn't want to have it removed if it was a problem, because truth be told, he enjoyed this weird feeling. The only problem was, what caused it? Why was it her, a curious stranger, that sparks this to occur. Everyone else he's encounter in his life span hasn't caused this to him. There was confusion, until the bot's eyes widened at a possibility. Could he possibly be experiencing...Love?
'But its way too soon! Usually in Roll's dumb movies, this happens after a month or two, not a week!'
A sigh followed this thought, as another took it's place .
' God, this means that she was right yesterday, if that even is what's happening. For all I know, this could just be a really close friendship!'
A pause in thought appeared, as the male robot's face relaxed a little, however still obtained some blush.
' That's exactly what's going on! I may be amazing when it comes to interacting with people, but this would be a whole nother level.'
He got closer to the female, as her hair was in his face slightly. He inhaled the fragrance a little, as he noted before going offline.
' Atleast she smells pleasant.'
