*Mr. Chair's POV*

We were trapped in our new base for about six hours before there was the tapping of combat boots against tile in the halls. After a minute or so, it was completely quiet in the halls. "He's gone. He's finally gone," Pewdie breathed. Everyone sighed of relief, except me.

I was too busy cowering in my little corner. What did Barrel say about r***ing us? I was too scared to walk that stupid Barrel's path. I didn't want to go outside! Why should I? Knowing that Barrel was going to r**** us up to get what he wanted?

About five minutes after Barrel had left, I found myself crying. It was quiet crying at first, but the more I thought about Barrel's threats, the louder the crying. Piggeh must've heard, because he looked away from the window, and crawled over to me in the corner.

"Ohh, my dear," he whispered. "Why are you crying? Why the tears? Tell Piggeh." He lifted a finger to either one of my cheeks, and let the tears roll off. I sniffled. "Barrel scared me," I sobbed, clinging onto my sweetheart. Piggeh sighed, and held me in his arms. "Oh my poor Mr. Chair," he whispered. "Barrel got us all a little spooked. But there's no need to cry. He can't hurt us. I won't let that son of a barrel touch you at all, especially if it makes you uncomfortable."

I squeezed Piggeh harder, beginning to shiver. I didn't want to be touched by Barrel! He would hurt me! Piggeh sighed again. "Oh my goodness, Mr. Chair," he whispered. "Look at chu...you're just shaking. You're shaking, my honey. Don't shake...don't cry. The bros and I are right here, and we're going to protect you."

*Piggeh's POV*

My muscles tightened with anger as Mr. Chair told me he was afraid of Barrel. How dare he scare my baby! Doesn't he know that the poor thing gets frightened easily?! He scared the living wits out of Mr. Chair! He was most likely too scared to leave the corner...and probably even too scared to leave my arms if he was that frightened!

I leaned into my baby's ear. "Honey, remember that if we can defeat Barrel once," I whispered, "we can defeat him again. We can take whatever he throws at us, right?" Mr. Chair nods once, and kisses my cheek. I smile, and bury his face in my chest.

When the night fell upon us, everyone slept in the corner in case Barrel decided to pay us a visit while we were sleeping. Mr. Chair conked out right away; he buried his arm in my chest, and fell fast asleep. He was snoring, but it was very very gently, and barely audible. Everyone else fell asleep about twenty minutes later. I stayed up longer than everyone else; I just couldn't sleep.

{Name} and Cry were sleeping beside each other. In his sleep, Cry began to shiver because he was probably chilly. {Name} must've felt the movements of him quivering, because he/she unfolded one of his/her majestic wings, and wrapped it around Cry's body. Cry, eyes still closed, smiled blushed, and snuggled into the wing that surrounded him.

I smiled, and let my eyes roll closed. I don't know about my Mr. Chair honey, but I knew they had a crush on one another, and the day that they told each other would be awesome.
