I woke up to the sound of silence. The only think I could hear was the beeping of the machine next to me, and my own breathing. I felt the pain I usually felt when sent here, just a little worse.

My main concern was Austin though.

I know I hadn't just fell into the delete Icon.

I was pushed.

I sat up quickly, almost falling back.

I mumbled, ripping the wires off of me and rubbing my eyes with the palms of my hands.

I heard metal footsteps echo down the hallway. I didn't have the energy to run away, and my mind was too foggy to remember how to teleport back to the mii channel, so I slid off of the bed, sitting down beside it. I hoped he wouldn't find me.

No matter how strong my shock k!nk is, I really don't wanna be electrocuted right now.

I heard his footsteps get closer, then stop. I covered my mouth with my hand, trying to muffle my breathing.

I heard a few more footsteps before quickly stopping again. I looked to my side to see Austin peering down at me about 8 feet away.

I felt my heart skip a beat as I quickly dragged my knees to my chest. I admired him for a moment, noticing something was different.

He didn't have his usual torture grin.

More of a blank state.

I shook my head as he began to slowly walk towards me, remembering how screwed I was. I placed my hands above my head fearfully.

I heard his footsteps stop right in front of me, making me tense out of reflex.

I heard him sit down in front of me.

Fuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuck-

"Romantic feelings, huh?" He said.

Wait what-
