Ranboo's POV:

I woke up before Tubbo. I wanted to get up and make us breakfast٫ so that when he woke up, we could eat together. For some reason, though, I couldn't bring myself to leave the bed. I wanted to stay with him.

I lie there, staring at him sleep. It could be looked at as creepy, but that's not what it was. I just loved looking at him in general. And when he was asleep, I had the perfect opportunity to do so.

He turned his head and made a slight squeal noise. That was the sound he made when he was stretching, so I knew he was about to wake up. I quickly turned to pick up my phone so that he wouldn't know I was staring.

He sat up and looked over and up at me.

He smiled up at me.

"Morning, big guy." He spoke in a deep, raspy voice.

"Good morning, Tubbo. How'd ya sleep?" I put my phone down and looked back at him.

"I slept greaattt." He extended the last word. "You're a very comfy pillow, Ranboo."

"I- wha- uhm, ok." I had no idea what to say, but that made me blush.

"Hahah, you get flustered so easily. It's actually really fun to tease you." He joked.

So I guess I finally figured out why he acted the way he did around me. He found satisfaction in me being a flustered mess. I'd understood then.

I couldn't help but feel sad about it, though.

"Oh, ok. I get it.." I blurted out.

"Get what?" He slightly tilted his head.

"I- oh, never mind." I aimed my head downwards and shook it lightly.

"No! What is it? You're confusing me, Ranboo.."

"Chill out. It's no big deal." I didn't want him to catch on. There was no way that he could know how I felt about him then.

"There you go again. You never talk to me. You're not open with me. And I really want you to be, Ranboo, I want you to trust me like I trust you!" He got louder and louder as he spoke. He could clearly tell that something was bothering me, otherwise he wouldn't have been so upset.

I was shocked. He'd never acted like this towards me. It kind of scared me to fight with him, but I argued back.

"Tubbo, I would never lie to you if it wasn't for a reason! I do trust you, more than anyone. But some things need to be left alone so that it doesn't cause... issues.."

"Well, clearly this has already become an issue! Why not throw in another one?" He shrugged dramatically.

"Because I don't want to have any more issues.. I really don't wanna fight with you, Tubbo.."

"Then.. tell me when something's bothering you.. please. I-I always want to help, b-but I can't read you're mind, Ranboo." He got much more quiet.

"If I told you.. th-then things would be ruined..." I looked down. "I'll tell you some day, Tubbo. When I can overcome my fear of it."

He leaned over on me and hugged me, almost knocking me over on the bed. He squeezed me really tightly.

"I-I'm really sorry, Ranboo. Let's never do this again." He sounded like he was crying, so I took him off of me and wiped his tears.

"Hey, it's not gonna happen again, ok? Don't be sad, please.." I said, pulling him back in and pressing his head against my chest.

I just felt him nod his head, sniffling. I felt sorry for arguing with him, but there was just no way that I could tell him. Not then at least.

"Hey, Tubbo. Why don't we go somewhere? You know, to take our minds off of this." I spoke up after a couple minutes of him snuggling me. He pulled away from me.

"That would be great." He smiled, looking down slightly, and wiping a tear from his face.

"I thought you'd say that." I got up and took his hand for him to get up, too.

I let go of his hand and went to get us some clothes. I came back a moment later and gave him a simple outfit, and he went into the bathroom. I just got changed in my bedroom.

He soon after came back out, cute as ever, making me smile and blush.

"Where are we gonna go?" He said, bending down to put on his shoes.

"Anywhere you want to." I pulled up my mask.

He looked at me, standing in front of me now. His face was lit up, and he was jumping up and down.

"I- y-you really mean that?!" He grabbed both of my hands, and he stopped jumping.

"Of course." I smiled. "Why wouldn't I mean it?"

"I-I dunno! But lets go then!!" He shouted, taking my hand and running down the stairs, causing me to trip along the way.

I couldn't help but to chuckle. He was just so adorable.

When we got outside, he slowed down and began telling me where he wanted to go. We were still walking, though.

"Ok, so. I want to go to the Fun Center. I've only been there like- once, and that's when I was.. 6, I think. All I can remember is that it was really fun and I really didn't want to leave!" He sped up and spoke more and more quickly.

I laughed. "Alright, alright, the fun center it is." I pulled up my mask again.

"YAYYYYY!!!!" He yelled out. "RANBOO, YOU'RE THE BEST!!!!" He began jumping up and down again, making my heart hurt for the hundredth time by then.

"Awh, thanks, Tubbo." I rubbed the back of my neck. I was blushing, but my mask hid that very well.

Tubbo giggled and started to hum a song that I didn't know. But I did know that he sounded like an angel.

We arrived close to a coffee shop.

"Tubbo, do you wanna get something to drink real quick?" I pointed to the shop.

"Only if you let me pay this time."

"Well, I kind of still have your wallet. And I can't do that." I held out his wallet to let him see, but I wasn't going to give it to him.

"YOU D(bleep)K!! GIVE ME BACK MY WALLET, YOU THIEF!" He let go of my hand and punched me in the shoulder.

"Ow! I will, I will! Just after today because you're not paying for anything. Don't be mad, be grateful." I rubbed my shoulder.

"Ranboo, you're making me feel like a d(bleep)n gold digger! Now give me back my money."

"You're not a gold digger if I'm giving you no other choice." I started walking towards the shop.

"Ughhhhh, Ranbooooo." He caught up to me and held my hand from behind, leaning his head on my back. I giggled. I was excited for today.
