Baseball was standing in front of the hotel. He knows he shouldn't be so far out of the shows perimeters but he needed someone to speak too and that object is Nickel.

He and Nickel were best buddies for years! It sucks to see him go... If only he didn't get that one vote, he would still be in the game with Baseball... Baseball had been feeling very depressed recently ever since Nickel had got in the portal, he has never been the same since... He had been feeling very hopeless and depressed, still thinking about Nickel.

Baseball sighed, he knows he had to get over it as other contestants had made friends and those friends had got voted off but he and Nickel were... Close... like.. Baseball sees Nickel more than just a friend... He was his...Boyfriend... Of course, Nickel presumably doesn't know Baseball even considered him a boyfriend, but this is why we're here today- well, tonight.

Tonight Baseball was going to confess To nickel and hopefully, Nickel doesn't think he's a weirdo or anything. Baseball delicately knocked on the door, he wasn't going to sneak in cause one; Breaking and Entering and two; He was too big to fit threw the windows soooo... He doesn't know any other way to get in but the front door.

OJ opened up the door and noticed Baseball, Baseball hesitated to smile.

Baseball: May I come in..?

OJ: That depends... Are you eliminated?

Baseball: Well... N-

OJ: (Cuts him off) That's all I needed to hear... *sighs* Listen, you contestants that are still participating in the show need to stop visiting over to the hotel to converse with your friends. Come back later once you're eliminated

OJ was about to close the door but Baseball put his foot threw the doorway, preventing OJ from shutting the door any further.

Baseball: I know I know! But I just really want to speak to Nickel for a moment!

OJ: Sorry, but rules are rules

Baseball: C'mon OJ! Wouldn't you be doing the same thing for Paper? Seeing him again if you two were ever departed?

OJ reflected for a moment. Yes, he would do the same thing for Paper. He and Paper had been best friends all the way back from season one. OJ slowly reopened the door to let Baseball in. OJ gave a small grin then Baseball smiled back then walked to the stairway.

Baseball had visited before so he knows where Nickel's room was located. He walked down the corridor and spotted Nickel's room. He was a bit afraid at first, he didn't know what to say to Nickel as he hadn't seen him in a while, he didn't even know how to speak to Nickel!

~~~~

Baseball tried to gather all his courage and just go over there and knock. He lightly knocked on the door then waited, his heart began pounding faster than it normally was, he also felt rather sick as butterflies were in his stomach.

Baseball straightened up as he saw the doorknob wiggling. The coin opened up the door then Baseball let out a chuckle of amusement as he saw Nickel was standing on an ottoman.

Nickel saw Baseball's amused face then playfully rolled his eyes.

Nickel: How else could I open the door?

Baseball: Oh I don't know, get help? Isn't Balloon your roommate?

Nickel: Yes but he's out doing something I don't know... Also, great to see ya man! Still in the game?

Baseball: *nods* Yeah... I'm still in the game!

Nickel: Awesome! I was afraid that you were eliminated. I know you got this show in the palm of your hand- well... You know what I mean!

Baseball: Sure do! But... The show has been pretty... lonely without you there...

Nickel: Pretty sure the other contestants beg to differ on that one...

Baseball: I really miss you Nickel... Like... You are my friend- actually my best friend! I don't think you noticed but I've been pretty depressed recently...

Nickel: Yea... I could tell, the whole show is filmed on live TV. Me and Balloon were watching the show and I noticed how you weren't your usual self... Something up?

Baseball: (corrects Nickel) It's Balloon and I and yes! Something is wrong!! I've hadn't been the same since you were gone... You're the kind of person to put that... Glow into my life y'know? I was amazed as I made it this far though... I thought I would get voted off sooner as people had noticed I wasn't my normal self recently... I just want to be with my best buddy is all...

~~~~

Nickel was quiet for a moment, Baseball was feeling a little uneasy... Nickel was never this quiet before. Did he say something wrong?

Nickel: Your pretty pathetic, you know that right?

Baseball: W-what...?

Nickel: Listen big guy, we both know that one of us would get eliminated and that person is me. What I'm telling you is that you shouldn't feel all edgy just because I left! I will always be with you in your heart or in your head, giving you ideas like the smart nickel I am~ Proceed to move on Baseball, I'm no longer with you so you got to come up with your own thoughts and opinions! Forget all about me! I know I'm the one who keeps you from being your normal... Happy-go-lucky self, so just forget I was ever there and just concentrate on winning that million! You got this Baseball, just be you and just pretend I'm with you! But don't go making a doll version of me made of sticks or something like that... That's just weird

Baseball had a few tears running down his face then hugged Nickel with his leg.

Baseball: Thank you Nickel...

Nickel: Haha.... Anytime pal... Now, could you let go of me? I need my bubble space..

Baseball immediately moved away then showed a goofy smile. Nickel snickered as he saw Baseball's expression.

Nickel: Ok... Enough sappy talk, wanna go inside my room and talk for a bit? None-show-related?

Baseball: Would love too but can't... MePhone would get pretty upset...

Nickel: Ugh... Right... Well, until next time buddy~

Nickel was about to close the door.

Baseball: Nickel, wait!

Nickel lifted one eyebrow. Baseball breathe in and out, trying to gather all his courage to tell him!

Nickel: Uhh... Ya ok there..?

Baseball: I LOVE YOU!!

Baseball instantly shut his mouth, his face turning a light pink. He didn't mean to shout that out! He was pretty sure everyone in the hotel had heard it..

Nickel: As in friend? Yea, I love you too man

Baseball: N-no! I mean... More than a friend..

Nickel's face looked priceless (no pun intended) Baseball wished he had hands so he could conceal his face from Nickel.

Baseball: S-sorry! I didn't mean to make it too weird-

Nickel bounced up and quickly pecked Baseball on the lips then smiled up at him.

Nickel: Go win that prize~

Baseball smiled then Nickel slowly closed the door. Baseball had that goofy smile on his face again... He would defiantly win this show, for Nickel!
