3rd Person POV

"Y/N, isn't she so beautiful? I think we'll name her... Summer. After her grandmother." Tears slid down Ruby's face as she held her newborn daughter in her arms. Y/N, crying from his seat, placed his hand over his mouth to hold off his sobs. Ruby was right to say that she was beautiful. Slowly rising up from his seat, Y/N walked over to Ruby and wiped away his tears. "You know, you're crying more than I thought Y/N. It's kind of... cute in a way." Just as Y/N reached out to hold Summer, he felt a slight jolt in his body, causing him to jump slightly. "Y/N, are you okay?" For a brief moment, he could've sworn he heard a familiar voice. "Y/N?" Ruby said softly. Before he could turn around to see who the voice was, he felt the jolt again.

"Y/N! Oh for the love of... Y/N get up!" Y/N's body jolted up as he heard Sean's voice. Quickly, he looked around to see that he was still in his office and not in the emergency room. "S... Sean?" Y/N tired asked as he rubbed his eyes. "Yeah, it's me. Look, you need to stop falling asleep so much. Do you sleep when you get home?" For a brief moment, Y/N just stared at Sean, blinking every two seconds. "I... Yeah. It's just that I have to worry about a few things. My cousin is getting married in Mistral and I'm not sure if I'll make it. My sister hasn't been speaking to me lately and I think something may have happened. It's just... a lot to take in, you know?"

"Yeah, I get it. If you gotta talk to someone about all of this, I'm here alright Grandpa?"
"Grandpa?! I'm not old!"
"Says the person who collects stamps."
"I'm not old! Just because I collect stamps doesn't mean a thing."
"Whatever you say dude. It's fine if you do. Just don't tell us stories about how it used to be and please don't call us whippersnappers."
"...Why do you have to do this to me?"

As Y/N rubbed his temples, he heard the sound of someone clearing their throat. Both he and Sean turned to see their manager. Ruby Rose. "Sean, stop bothering Y/N. If you bother him about stamps, then you wouldn't mind telling him about the thing in your drawer. The rather... large... black thing." Sean's eyes went wide and he ran off to where he was meant to be. "Now that he's taken care of... Y/N, why didn't you tell me you were going through a rough patch?"

"Well I... Didn't want to bother you Ms. Rose."
"If one of my workers needs a break, then they should come and tell me." Ruby flashed Y/N a genuine smile before crossing her arms.

"Just don't sleep too much, okay?" Babe. Y/N nodded slowly as Ruby walked away. He could've sworn he heard her say babe at the end of that sentence. Perhaps it was just his mind playing games with him...again. Sighing, Y/N took a sip of his now cold coffee. "Some day... I... I know I could do it, but... No... Why would she settle for someone like me?" After looking around for other workers, Y/N placed his head down on his desk and slowly closed his eyes. "Y/N, how does this feel~?" Once again, his eyes shot open. He definitely didn't need those dreams at work.

"Home at last..." Throwing down his bag, Y/N hopped on his bed and took out his scroll and earbuds. "Now let's see. Not in the mood for that... nope... not that... There it is!" Once he pressed the song, he smiled and closed his eyes.

I've got you under my skin... I have got you, deep in the heart of me
So deep in my heart that you're really a part of me.. I've got you under my skin

I'd tried so, not to give in... I said to myself this affair it never will go so well... But why should I try to resist when baby I know so well 
I've got you under my skin
