A/N: Short chapter, sorry.

You all walk into your room. You're holding a candle again. AJ walks over to his bed and he turns around.

Clem: Time for bed, little guy.

AJ: Can I stay up?

You smirk.

You: Nope.

AJ: Two more minutes?

You: Tell you what. You says, walking over to the nightstand. You lay down, and then we'll see.

You take off your hat and you put it down. Clem takes off her hat and puts it down next to yours.

AJ hops into his bed with his legs crossed.

AJ: I like it here.

You set the candle down on the nightstand.

AJ: I got to kill fish! Violet looked like she was having a good time.

You and Clem sit on AJ's bed.

AJ: It's nice. Not driving everywhere, or running away. But the Foundation and the ranch were nice, too. Before the blood.

Clem sighs.

Clem: This isn't the ranch.

You: Nor the Foundation.

There's a moment of silence between you all for a few seconds.

AJ: Do you guys like it? I like it, now that I'm used to it. There's games, and the walls make it feel safe.

Clem: I do. I really do. It's good to feel safe somewhere.

You: I like it too. This place is paradise, so far.

Clem nods.

You and Clem stand up.

Clem: There, you got to stay up two minutes more. Time for sleep.

AJ: I'll lay down when you blow out the light.

You: Alright. Give us a minute.

You look at Clem.

You: I found a few decorations for our room.

Clem: Me too.

You lay out all of the decorations, which include: the deer skull, the cat skull, Tenn's drawing, and some flowers that Clem found.

Clem: That everything?

You remember the fake flowers.

You: Oh, yeah! Totally forgot.

You pull out the fake flowers. You bow at Clem and you offer the flowers.

You in a British accent: M'lady.

She giggles.

Clem: You're such a dork.

She grabs the flowers and puts them in a flower pot on a shelf.

Clem: There.

AJ: You have to water flowers.

You look at AJ.

You: Not these.

Clem: They're fake, 'cause Y/N isn't able to find REAL ones like me.

You: Hardy, har, har.

AJ: So they never die?

You: Never.

AJ: Lucky flowers. But they're not as pretty as Clem's.

Clem: That's right.

You sigh.

You: I guess I'll never try to do something nice for you again.

Clem: Oh, I'm only teasing. She says, walking over to you and kissing you on the cheek.

Clem walks over to the bed and gets in first. You walk over to the candle and you blow it out.
