A/N

Sorry. Promised the update a few days ago, but I've been too busy with school. Aiming for the toplisters of the school so I've been studying a shit ton. Takes away my fun and writing, but it's all for my better future. Anyway, enough with that emo shit hi guys! Shoutout to warrior of birthright who PMed me, thanks for reaching out! I love talking to the peeps who read my shit. Anyway, don't wanna drag this too long, so here's the disclaimer and then the fic. (Anybody play CS:GO here? PM me so we can do a few competitive rounds together. Btw, don't judge me, I'm under silver but I've got years of experience playing CSS. Just officially bought the game a few days ago.)

Disclaimer: I don't claim anything. Except my OC.

Theo's POV.

His apartment, 4:59 pm, November 12…

Sleep tight I'm not afraid~

The ones that we love are here with me~

Lay away, A place for me

'Cause as soon as I'm done, I'll be on my waaay~

To LIIIIIVE ETERNALLY!

…. (RIP Rev of A7X. Live foREVer m8.)

And just as the epic solo was about to come in, somebody knocks on Theo's door. Nobody knocks on Theo's door when a solo was near. He was obviously pissed off, shouting a ton of words to the door that would even make Blanc's pissed off attitude blush. He was finally getting his valuable alone time after weeks of work as Lyrica's manager (not to be confused with a producer, Theo is more of a scheduler in his line of work, and paper pusher/shredder/signer/sender.)

He was audibly stomping his foot as he walked towards the door, possibly to scold another shitty door marketer (it was bad the first time, and the times after that.) and ass he opens the door, his face full of fury immediately became replaced with terror and shame, as he saw Lyrica and Cave outside, both exchanging worried looks to one another.

"Uhm, we should get going." Lyrica started. Theo was visibly shaking in shame, face paper white and overall afraid on what they would think of him. He was really harsh, and I mean it.

"N-no! I'm sorry. I'm…. just pissed off… marketers keep knocking at my door and I thought you guys were another one. So, I'm sorry!" He bowed hard.

"Well, it was a misunderstanding, so no need to bow. C'mon lift your head." Cave spoke. She was surprisingly calm here, not that it wasn't normal at all, but you get the point.

Theo lifted up his head, seemed to have calmed down a bit but still shaky. Thinking on what to say next, he just said "S-so, come in I guess?"

"Okay then. Sorry for the intrusion~" Lyrica replied.

"So let me get this straight, you two wanna crash at my apartment for a few days to hang out?"

"Yep. Me and Cave decided that a few days ago. *mumble* And I wanted to know more about you *mumble*"

"What was that?"

"Eep! N-nothing! Nothing at all!"

The three were at Theo's small living room/kitchen/gaming hub. Lyrica and Cave were sitting next to each other on the couch while Theo was sitting in one of his dining chairs. Cave sighed at their little conversation. She reluctantly agreed to this idea, but the way Lyrica was so pushy on the subject really questioned her. Lyrica is a good friend to everybody she meets, a bit shy but that's just how she rolls. But there's something about Theo that she just can't explain. They're getting a bit too close, but that may be because he's Lyrica's manager. And—

"Hello~? Earth to Cave? Come in Cave? Is she alright Lyrica?"

Cave came back to reality after her deep thinking. The characters in this story are doing a lot of that recently. But, that's just how the author rolls. Anyway, Lyrica spoke up.

"As I was saying, we'll be staying here for a few days, and the three of us are going out on a friends' night out just as we agreed right Cave?"

"Right."

And here comes another idea Cave was reluctant about. She was worried that if fans would recognize 5pb. going outside in normal clothes, they would freak out and take pictures and whatnot.

"So we're going out tonight? I heard that there was a night fair by the baywalk that just recently opened up." Theo asked.

Cave and Lyrica thought for a bit, then Cave spoke up first.

"I think it's a great idea."

Theo and Lyrica audibly gasped in shock, Theo more of a fake one, as he realized that she said the magical line that would trigger a major event flag.

"Well what are we waiting for? It's almost dark out so you guys get ready. I'll just update a few things here and there on my site and edit a few vids. There's an extra room I use for recording so you two can take that one. Don't worry about the futon there its big enough for the two of you, I think."

"Thank you for your hospitality Theo. We'll be fine." Cave replied.

"Alrighty then. Time to edit me some videos!"

About an hour later, 6 pm….

"Wow. Ehm, am I supposed to say something?" Theo was stunned.

"S-shut up! Lyrica was the one who picked this one out for me." Cave was blushing hard.

"Aaw but it looks cute on you!" And Lyrica is dying inside due to moe.

Sorry readers but I ain't describin how Cave looks. I'll leave that to your imagination. Keep this in mind though, she looks FUCKING ADORABLE. No pink tho, still mostly red and white.

"Thank you author. I would not have survived the embarrassment if the readers knew what I wore today"

BUT ITS FUCKING CUTE…

"Hmph." Cave pouted adorably.

*kawaii lvl: over Neptune!*

Screams in the background: "Hey that's no fair! I'm supposed to be your waifu *beep*!"

I love you too Nep. But I love 5pb just a bit more.

"Noooooo! My position as the main protagonist and his waifu is in danger!"

Ahem. Sorry a bit sugar high here, anyway, the three head out for their night full of excitement and fun, or so they say? I don't even know anymore I'm just staring at Cave. By the way, Lyrica is in disguise and Theo is well, being Theo.

The fair was a little project by Lady Green Heart as a way to celebrate their prosperity, and a way to attract more followers from around the continent. Stalls left and right, selling all kinds of food and goods, even a few games from the different consoles from the different nations. The three were walking around the fairgrounds, chatting about random things here and there.

"So have you seen the new game that the Lastation 4 released a few weeks ago? The one with a dungeon crawler bullet hell?" Theo continued on their random chats, munching on a hotdog.

Cave's ears picked up the magic word: Bullet Hell. She loves that shit (and so do I irl) But she kept her composure and replied "Really? What was it called?"

"I think it was called The Bulletgeon or something. I tried the game, but it was too hard for a casual bullet hell gamer for me. You like bullet hell right Cave?"

"Yes in all honesty. Since we are at the fair, would you guys help me look for that game?"

"You don't even need to ask Cave!" Lyrica replied cheerily.

"Okay then, we got our next quest! Let's split up and look for it for a bit and meet up here in 30 minutes. Don't buy the game though, we might have ourselves one more copy than we need." Theo replied.

"I agree. So, let's go?" Cave replied.

"Lets. See you in 30 minutes guys!"

And with that, the three split up and looked for the game, hidden from the large amount of stalls and shops that opened up.

I'm a dick. I know. I promised 4000 words, but ended up with less than 1500. But I just needed to post this chapter up so the fire doesn't die off yet. So, I've decided, that I'll update at least every week, longest is probably two, but only keep it to 1.5k words to keep it short and long, if you catch my drift. Short in a sense that every chapter is short, long in a sense that I'll be forced to go above 25 chapters so you can enjoy it a bit longer. Anyway, again I'm sorry, aiming for the top list in school is my goal for now, so yeah. School is more important figuratively. Anyway, drop a review, follow the story, or even me if you dig it, and yeah. Anyway, thanks for reading, see you in the next update!
