Chapter 4: Day out with Matt!

Third person POV

It was just another day. Y/n was in their drawing pictures and talking to Shay on the walkie-talkie. "No, Shay!" Y/n yelled and giggled "No way you ate that bug!" "But I did! It was crunchy, but slimy...BLEH!" He joked. They were talking about things they've been doing recently with their families, apparently the other day Shay went to the park with his parents and ate a funny looking bug! "Well, enough about me. What did you do with your Parents?" Shay asked "Well, we decorated and customized my room, Tommy and Tordle got into a fight, but after that we had a movie night." Y/n went on "That sounds cool, but I gotta go" he said "Okay bye!" Just as soon as Y/n clicked the button, Matt rushed into their room excitedly "Y/N, I'M GOING TO THE SHOPS, DO YOU WANNA GO!?" He screamed "YES OF COURSE BUT WHY ARE YOU SCREAMING!?" Y/n yelled back "SORRY! I'm just excited now let's go!" So Matt grabbed Y/n's hand and rushed out.

At the Mall

Y/n and Matt strolled through the mall staring in awe at all the cool shops. Game Crap, Fashion Crap, Music Crap and all of em! But what REALLY got them to stop and stare and eventually walk in; Antique Crap. Y/n and Matt excitedly hurried in and were immediately immersed into all the pretty little antiques and delicate decorations. While Matt was going Ooh and Ahh over all the novelty toys and figurines, Y/n was going starry-eyed over abstract stained glass panes and tiny porcelain statues of ballerinas and princesses, nutcracker and frogs. They examined each of them delicately, paying attention to all the pretty little details as Y/n ran their fingers over them. But their immersion was cut short with Matt scaring them making them almost drop the antique "Hey Y/n! Have you found something interesting!" Matt squeaked "Matt!" Y/n exclaimed back almost catching the ballerina figurine before it slips from them "Oh, sorry." Matt apologized "It's okay, and yes, look! Aren't they pretty!" Y/n held up some of the porcelain figurines up to Matt. "Oooooh! Okay, let's go pay!" So they did, they walked up to the cashier...but...apparently, Matt forgot his wallet..! "Shucks! Sorry Y/n, I guess we have to leave those behind to get them back." "We are not leaving anything behind!" Y/n exclaimed as they rushed out before Matt could ask, he stuttered conflicted whether he should put the antiques back and chase after the child that's getting farther and farther, but just has a mental shut down and stands there with a bag of porcelain figurines and novelty toys.

Y/n's POV

I ran as fast as I can across the mall heading to the gates, I leapt out and made my way across the sidewalk to Edd's house. I zig-zagged around the people walking on the sidewalk, and me being small but fast is wasn't very hard to avoid them, but it was hard to not have them trip over me. I saw Edd's ever nearing house in the distance so I started running faster.

Third-person POV

Edd hummed to his favourite song while preparing lunch for when Matt and Y/n come back, but his peace was disturbed when he heard the door fly open. Assuming it was either Tord or Tom, he yelled "Quit it you two, the doors breaking!" But he knew something was off when he didn't hear arguing, instead he heard the pitter-patter of small feet that rushed right by him going upstairs "Y/n??" But before he could ask anything the small child rushed out again out the door yelling "Hi Eddie Bye Eddie!" Before vanishing out the door again. But wait, wasn't Y/n supposed to be with Matt at the mall? And...they came alone..? "OH I'M SO GOING TO KILL HIM" Edd yelled to nobody in frustration. Y/n proceeded to run again in the direction of the mall now clutching Matt's purse in their tiny hands. Y/n made it to the shops and saw the antiques shop and also Matt waving at them, YES! They were gonna make it! Except instead of reaching the shop Y/n was now trampled on the ground, Matt's purse flying out of their hand into the fountain, they have bumped into someone or something and have fallen. "Oh my God! Are you alright!?" The lady that Y/n bumped into yelled holding her hand out to help Y/n out "H-huh..? Oh y-yeah..! Uh, MATT! MATTS WALLET!" Y/n got up with the lady's help and headed to the fountains to retrieve the purse but was stopped by Matt's hug "OH Y/N! I'M SO SORRY I SHOULDN'T HAVE LET YOU GO ALONE YOU COULD'VE GOT HURT OR WORSE-" He cried but was cut off by Y/n's tiny finger on his lips hushing him "Hey, it's okay! I got the money but...I dropped it in the fountain..." Y/n said pointing to the fountains, but they fished out the Wallet, took a little pushing to have the cashier accept a soaked tuft of 30 pounds but it worked, and so Matt and Y/n left the Mall with their antiques and ice-cream and made it back home. But going home, with this whole sharade they were expecting to be greeted by a less that satisfied Edd. "Am I in trouble?" Y/n looked over with their chocolate stained mouth "Looks like we both are..." Matt said before hesitantly opening the door, but except being greeted by a barrage of lectures by Edd, they were greeted by....a mere "Hi". "Oh, you're back! Just in time for lunch!" Edd warmly said which really baffled the two "Wait you're not...Mad at us..?" Y/n and Matt said that last part in unison. Edd put his hands on his hips and looked aside before saying "Well, I was...but, Tom talked to me about it and told me that it would be a little unfair to just ridicule you like that." Edd simply said. Matt and Y/n looked at eachother in utter disbelief before looking at Tom on the couch who immediately turned his gaze away from them to the TV as Edd continued "Yeah, but...What happened anyway?" "Well, it's a long story..." Y/n replied and scratched the back of their neck "Well tell me all about it for lunch." Edd chuckled as they all sat down to eat.
