(Y/n) woke up with a confused look. She looked around. "Wha.." she noticed she was holding onto something. She looked at Jonathan and blushed a bit. She tried not to move so that he wouldn't wake up. "Uh.. Jonathan..?" She tried waking him up. After it didn't work, she sighed. She tried getting up but she couldn't because he was holding onto her. She kept trying to wake him up. "Jonathan?" She said a bit louder but not very loud. He finally woke up. "Huh?" He said as he tried to get used to the sunlight. He looked at her and immediately let go of her. His face grew red as he looked at the ground. "Sorry.." he said quietly but loud enough for her to hear. "It's fine.." She replied as she played with a strand of her hair. They were quiet for a while until a loud noise broke the silence. It was Ornith. They both looked at the small crow. "We should probably go.." she mumbled as he nodded in agreement.

   Once they got back inside, they sat at the 'meeting' table. They both stared at the ground in embarrassment. It was obvious that (Y/n) was, but for Jonathan, nobody cause notice because of his mask. The entire time, (Y/n) thought about what happened that morning. Little did she know, she was getting stared at but a certain scarecrow the entire time.

   After the meeting, (Y/n) was awoken from her daydream by a loud, high pitched laugh. She looked up at who it was, and sure enough, it was Jerome. "What?" She asked, rolling her eyes. Jonathan turned his attention to Jerome as well. He stopped laughing and looked at the two of them, who were the only two left at the table other than him. "Seriously, you are really bad at hiding things!" He said as he kept laughing. (Y/n) and Jonathan looked at eachother then back at Jerome. "What do you mean..?" (y/n) asked. "You two! Like each other, or are together and don't want us to know even though it's easy to notice because you may be dark and shady but it's easy to know what you are hiding." Jerome said. "Yea I don't know what you are talking about." (Y/n) said as she blushed. Jonathan nodded and slowly backed away from the table. (Y/n) looked at him with a 'help me out here' look. He just shrugged and walked away. (Y/n) rolled her eyes and looked at the smiling ginger in front of her. (I'm not sure but I'm pretty sure Jerome is a ginger) She sighed. "Here we go.."

After what seemed like forever, (Y/n) finally left and went to her lab. She walked in and saw Jonathan in the chair in the corner. "For a second there I thought you were Jerome trying to ask more stupid questions. Jonathan let out a small laugh and shook his head. "Luckily, I'm not." He said. (Y/n) laughed. "Obviously." She said as she looked back at the table either eh lab equipment. "So anyways, did you need something?" She asked. "Actually, I kinda wanted to ask you something." He said hesitantly. She raised an eyebrow and nodded. She sat on the chair next to his and looked over at him. "What's up?" She asked. "I was just wondering if you were mad at me or anything." He asked. "Why would I be mad at you?" She said with a confused laugh. "I'm not sure.. I just thought you seemed mad at me back there." Jonathan said. He looked at her as she got up and gave him a hug. "I don't have a reason to be mad at you." She said as he hugged her back. She said back down and looked at him. "So, uh did you want to talk about anything else?" She asked. Jonathan thought for a moment before coming up with a question. "Why didn't you wake me up this morning? You could've woken me up and I would have stopped hugging you." He said. (Y/n) got a bit flustered and quickly answered. "I tried to wake you up, but you are a really heavy sleeper. So I just stayed there." She said. He nodded and stood up. "I'll leave you alone now. Cya later I guess." Jonathan left the room.

(Y/n) stared at the door as she thought to herself. 'Am I starting to fall for him..?'
