"Do yew 'ave a spare iPhone charga'?" 2D called meekly to Noodle who was in her kitchen, making poor, sick 2D, some macaroni cheese while forcing this god-awful craving for McDonald's down, far far down her train of thought. She'd also gone out in the rain (with an umbrella) to fetch his car and bring it up outside the house. But she'd done it in a lovely lilac dress and she still hadn't warmed up after she got back inside, even though the underfloor heating and gas fireplaces were set on overdrive.

"Just borrow mine." Noodle yelled back, stirring the bubbling cheese sauce until her arms became numb. It still didn't taste right-MORE SALT IS REQUIRED. She reached into the cupboard above her head and stood on her tiptoes to search for the missing ingredient.

Salt aquired.

"Where 'es ih'?" Noodle heard an alarmingly loud thump from the living room, and almost smacked her head into the open cupboard in shock.

"You okay, 2D?" she ducked around the kitchen to check up on him. He'd fallen off the couch, as predicted. She snorted, and knelt down to help him back up.

"Yeah, 'm aw'righ'. My phone's dead, howeva'." he pulled a face of mourning, and Noodle rolled her eyes.

"There isn't even a plug nearby. Just watch the telly, I'll charge it in the kitchen." she snatched his phone before he could protest, and traded it for the TV remote. 2D mumbled a response and began flicking through channels. Noodle shook her head in amusement.

Milk is easy to burn.

"FUCK." She sprinted back to the kitchen and took care of the bubbling cheese sauce. After turning the heat down and giving it a good stir, she plugged 2D's phone into an electric socket and begun to take selfies. A nice treat for him to return to.

"I could live off 'dis." 2D spat macaroni cheese everywhere in a fit of excitement. Noodle cringed and flicked a bit of chewed-up pasta from her hand that got the brunt of the crossfire.

"Eugh, you got it all over me." she wiped her arm on his jeans, unable to accept the grossly-delivered compliment. He got to lay across the couch, while she was squeezed up at the very end.

"Save ih' for te' Winter." he mumbled, distracted by the meal and still talking with food in his mouth. Noodle stared at him and felt her lips curl in disgust, but she started giggling anyway.

"How long 'es your hair?" 2D was awed, and had been plaiting it for a minute or two.

"It's short, 2D"

"Good god 'et's longer 'dan..."

Noodle suppressed a dick joke. She waited for him to continue, but he seemed to have forgotten that he was talking.

It was a comfortable silence.

"FUCK" she yanked her hair away and whipped around to see 2D looking rather sheepish, and a clump of her hair between his fingers after pulling at a knot.

Maybe not..

"SHE IS GOING TO GET EATEN." Noodle screamed in fear, and 2D yelled at her outburst, more out of confusion. They drowned out the programmes gory noises with confused sounds. Noodle was situated beside 2D's head and sitting on the floor as he lay on the couch, and if she was blocking his view, he hadn't complained.

A jump scare made her scream once again, and she grabbed a pillow to cover her eyes, only it wasn't a pillow, it was 2D's rather large hand. This was maybe on accident (maybe not). She blushed and flicked his hand back forcefully so he whacked himself in the face, but this didn't stop his joy.

"Yew scared of a zombie now, Noods?" 2D started laughing once the moment passed, and Noodle felt offended.

"No! I just have a lot of sympathy for idiots." she retorted pointedly, not exactly talking about the dumbass on TV anymore, but he didn't seem to notice.

"Aww, 'et's okay tih' be scared, chook." He patted her head.

Noodle felt like the idiot here, now.

"Whatever, watch this yourself." She hunched over her phone so he couldn't see what she was doing.

Time for glorious smut.

2D noticed.

"What're yew readin'?" He asked as he peered over her shoulder with no sense of personal space or privacy whatsoever.

Noodle felt her heartbeat go way out of control, and her cheeks became redder than the gore 2D was meant to still be distracted with.

"N-nothing! Stop reading over my shoulder!" She stuttered and closed the fanfiction app altogether, clicking on the old Wattpad one she used to use, but effort was futile at this point.

"Nah I know what 'dat was, because I saw 'et once at a..."

He trailed off, and Noodle felt slightly relieved. Maybe he's forgotten-

"At a gas station! Yeah,"

Noodle wanted to scream.

"And 'dese guys were doin' 'dat or somefink in te' lads toilet, and it sucked. 'cause I had to pee, so I went intah' tih' lady's one and a lady smacked me over te' head with her hand bag and called me a perv! I tried to tell 'er I just had to pee but she ran out, so I peed and went to leave but another lady smacked me with a hand bag as well, so thats why I don't go to gas station bathrooms to pee and masturbate."

Noodle, who had been listening rather intently, dropped her phone in shock. A rather drastic change in the story at the very end there, 2D.

"Wait, where did that come from?" She squeaked.

"Where did what come from?"

Noodle breathed heavily for a couple of seconds. Why on earth did she come to like this guy so much? Her shocked face split into a sudden grin, and she broke into peals of laughter. 2D found this quite infectious, and started giggling as well.

"Never mind." Noodle patted him on the head, and took the plates to get seconds of mac'n'cheese.
