Chapter Text
The round ended.
No one survived that time.
They usually don't when the killers is Sixer. Noob usually dies first, but no one fully understand why...
Except for Taph. She knew a lot about noob. Taph decides to check on noob, they seem stressed.
Taph went to Noobs cabin. He knew this round was specifically hard on noob. But why this one? "(Hi noob, are you okay..? Can I stay?)" Taph signs. Noob nods immediately. They really enjoy Taph's company. "Im okay...its just.. we've been here for so long, what if this hell never ends..?" Noob vents. Taph listens. Taph puts their arm around noob. Noob huddles close to Taph. "(its okay, I understand. I've been thinking about it myself, I have no idea how long i've been here, but you've been here longer than I have.)" taph signs. Noob nods. "if we never make it back, at least I'm not alone..you are always there for me...and I love you" Noob speaks up. "(oh noob..I love you too..)" taph signs.
Noob pulls Taph closer. "can you stay here for the night? please?" they ask. Taph nods. "(I was going to anyways..)" taph signs. "Good." Noob says. They cuddle with taph for a while. Taph cuddles them back. "this is good..can we stay like this? I could sleep like this." noob states. Taph nods in agreement. "(I could too...)" he signs. noob smiles softly. "Okay..then this it is." Noob eventually drifts off to sleep. Taph shifts slightly to be closer to Noob. They look so innocent and calm in their sleep. Taph plays with noobs hair. She enjoys doing that. Noob always has soft hair. Taph falls asleep with noob.
At the other cabin, a few of the others weren't asleep yet.
They are questioning what's happening between taph and noob.
"Do you think they're in love?" Shedletsky questions.
He gets a few glares back but Chance agrees.
"Wait guys, he's not completely wrong...I mean look. They have both been going off alone together for a while now." Chance says, tossing their coin in the air.
"Okay, lets just keep it under our hats for now, we don't need to be spreading any false information." Builderman says.
They all agree.
Next morning and Noob wakes up first. They huddle with Taph again. Taph wakes up due to the movement. "Oh sorry.." Noob says quietly. Taph just hugs noob. "(don't apologize...its okay..I'm a light sleeper.)" She signs. Noob nods. "Okay, lets head to the main cabin now.." Noob says, offering their hand and Taph takes their hand.
