The 4th Music Room

[cottoncandynear]

Near is wandering aimlessly through the halls, looking for something slightly interesting. It is then he decides to enter a room- which he does.

He opens the door and red rose petals swirl out with a whoosh! There's a bright light coming from inside, so he decides to check it out. When he walks in, he realizes his clothes have changed- black

[choccomello]

Oh hell. What the fuck is this supposed to be?

[ waves rose petals away from his face, not amused by the stupid blue jacket/pants ensemble he's been forced into. ]

[cottoncandynear]

"I have no idea... but it's tea time," Near says, plucking a petal from his hair.

[choccomello]

[ he rolls his eyes, brushing some more petals off his 'new' clothes. ]

Tea?

[cottoncandynear]

He gestures to the room, where tables are set with tea. "Tea," he confirms.

[choccomello]

Why can't it be hot cocoa or something? [ grumbles ]

[cottoncandynear]

"That would be nice," he laughs lightly, "But this place doesn't seem to fit with something so informal."

[choccomello]

Bah. Whatever.

[cottoncandynear]

Near smiles, "I guess we could try to find some... I mean, all these doors-" he gestures around the room, "-have to lead somewhere..."

[choccomello]

I suppose.

Want to try?

[cottoncandynear]

"Sure," Near says, and grabs Mello's hand- sprinting across the room in slow motion.

[choccomello]

[ slow motion following, what, with a surprised and thoroughly confused look on his face. are those sparkles floating around them? ]

[cottoncandynear]

A last leap and a bound and Near has crossed the room with Mello. He stops, still holding the other boy's hand and-

A rose garden now? They're completely surrounded by the flowers, with strange music playing as he looks up at Mello.

"What's going on?" He whispers, in almost a daze.

[choccomello]

[ there are more sparkles and rose petals everywhere and Mello just wants to gag - but he's suddenly compelled to gaze down at Near with big shiny eyes. ]

...I don't know? [ also feels weirdly dazed ]

[cottoncandynear]

Near puts a hand on the other boy's chest and stands close to him. "But it doesn't really matter..." he whispers.

[choccomello]

[ eeeergh, the room is spinning or something. he's forced to lean forward, clutching at Near's shirt, not understanding what's happening. ]

R-Right...

[cottoncandynear]

"Don't let go," he mutters, eyes locked to the brown ones above his, and tightening his grip on Mello's hand.
