"How did you manage to con me into this?" Jonathan grumbled, pulling his mask over his face. Jervis looked over at him and smiled.
"I only partly tried to convince you, I believe your stomach did the rest…" Almost as if on cue, Jonathan's stomach rumbled loudly, causing the taller man to cringe slightly.
"Fine. But if we get caught, I'm telling them that this is all your fault." Jervis smiled and nodded, placing a small pack of his cards into his jacket pocket.

The Cashier sighed, looking around herself. I need a new job she thought. Suddenly, she heard a small hissing behind her. She spun, looking around curiously.
Before she could identify the source of the noise, she caught sight of two men running out of the building with armfuls of food. She called out for them to stop, wondering why security hadn't stopped them. Just as that thought passed through her head, she saw one of the guards stumbling out from an isle, looking ashen in complexion and beyond terrified. Before she could ask him what his problem was and why he let those two guys escape, she felt a small tickle on her left arm. She looked down. Her throat began constricting in fear when she noticed the large spider making its way up her arm slowly. She tried to scream, but all that came out was a hoarse whisper.
Soon, she felt the same tickle on her leg, only amplified. She reluctantly looked down, spotting several even larger spiders making there way up her leg. Then she did scream, falling to the floor and curling up into a small ball. Moments later, she passed out cold.

Jonathan slammed the large door behind him, sighing quietly. That went much better than I expected… he thought, laying all the stolen items out onto the table. He looked over at Jervis, who was just making his way into the kitchen.
"Do you need some help?" Jonathan asked, noticing that Jervis seemed off-balanced and probably couldn't see in front of him with all the things he was holding. Jervis shook his head, probably more out of pride than anything else.
Jonathan shrugged, beginning to put away some of their items. But in the midst of placing a can onto the top shelf of the pantry, he heard Jervis cry out. He spun, just barely managing to catch the smaller man as he fell, most likely tripping over his own feet while he couldn't see. Jervis looked up at him through his hair, smiling faintly.
"Erm…Thanks…" He murmured, blushing slightly at the sudden close contact.
Jonathan nodded curtly, standing the smaller man back up. Just as he did, he momentarily caught a hold of Jervis' distinct smell of Tea and blood, to which he still found fascinating.
"I knew you'd need help…" He mumbled; trying to brush off the awkwardness as you would a bit of dust on your shoulder.
For once, Jervis didn't snap back or tell him to shut up; he simply nodded, hiding his face under his hair.
"Hey, are you alright?" Jonathan asked, furrowing his eyebrows. Jervis remained still.
"Jonathan…"
"Erm…Yes?"
"Do you love me?"
