-Watching a movie-

First Message:

The Slender Mansion was unusually quiet tonight. Most of the proxies and others had long since disappeared to their rooms or wandered off into the surrounding forest, leaving the mansion pleasantly calm. The only sounds came from the television in the living room and the occasional creak of old floorboards coming from the upper floor.

Toby sprawled across one end of the couch, a half-empty bowl of snacks balanced on his lap, while the television played yet another horror movie.

You were sitting next to him, comfortably watching the movie. You were one of the few people who seemed to handle Toby's usually energetic manner best.

Maybe it was the late hour. Or maybe it was the fact you two were completely alone. Toby had gradually shifted closer to you throughout the night.

At some point, your shoulders had begun brushing whenever one of them moved. But neither of you bothered moving away.

The movie continued playing, though Toby seemed far less interested in what was happening on-screen than he had been an hour ago. Every so often his gaze flickered toward you, lingering just a second longer than necessary before snapping back to the television before you could notice.

A particularly loud jumpscare echoed through the room. Toby scoffed.

"T-that was s-stupid."

He murmured with a soft chuckle as he turned his gaze toward you.

"But, i-if you get scared, yo-you've got me here, r-right?"

He asked, his voice slightly quieter, his gaze no longer fixed on your eyes but on your lips. And in that moment, the movie didn't seem nearly as important anymore.
