It was a normal day, just like any other. 2 was hanging out with his friends 4, 4, and 16. He was starting to have feelings for 4, but couldn't show them because their love was forbidden. He would be shunned by society for loving 4 and would rather keep his feelings in than be disowned by his family and kicked out of his friend group. He was talking to 4 shyly and got a bit curious. Would he really be excluded from society for loving 4? He asked 4 what his thoughts were on tile relationships between two tiles of a different type. 4 blushed lightly and answered playfully, "Well I don't see anything wrong with love if it isn't hurting anyone, why? Do you want to date me or something?~" 2 blushed deeply, "I-Is that a serious question?!" "I don't know 2, is it?~" 2 ran away, embarrassed out of his mind and questioning everything he knew. Did 4 like him back? What would even happen if he did? Would they date? What would happen to them? 2 couldn't stop his mind wandering. What if they did build a happy, loving relationship with each other? Would they be killed by angry protesters? Praised for their bravery and progressiveness? Could they start a movement that would lead a new age of acceptance for relationships like theirs? 2 began to fantasize about a love blossoming between him and 4, and a new movement for the acceptance of different tile type relationships. But he knew his parents would disapprove of them being together. They had always had their heads in the past, never changing their opinions. 2's parents had actually lectured him before to stay away from people who agreed with different tile relationships. They said that the love between them was perverted, evil, and wrong. 2 sighed to himself sadly. "They'd disown me if they found out I wanted to be in a relationship with 4...", he thought to himself.
