The skeleton made his way into a small alley and looked around. "Sansy?" He called out, "Where are you?" He rattled the container that was in his hand, "I got you some food." The mention of food brought the cat named Sansy out of hiding, as it appeared in front of Ccino. It gave the skeleton a small greeting.

"There you are!" Ccino petted the stray cat, who let out a purr. "Meow!" The cat sniffed the object he was holding and let out another meow. "Oh, yeah! I almost forgot!" Ccino opened the lid and placed it down for the cat. "Here's your breakfast." The skeleton watched as the lazy cat devoured the kibble. He hummed happily to himself as he watched.

"Aww... you're just too cute!" As if agreeing with Ccino, Sansy replied with a purr. "I gotta go, Sansy. Or else I'm gonna be late for school!" Ccino petted the blue and white cat one more time, before running off to school. The cat meowed and walked off to who knows where.

Ccino fidgeted with his sleeves as he walked through campus. He didn't like all the people that were around him. It made him pretty nervous, but he could manage! "I just have to calm myself down." Besides, he was going to have lunch with his best friend! He was pretty excited. Arrow had been busy with school work, so they hadn't been able to eat lunch together in a while. With a happy thought in mind, Ccino's nervousness started to fade away.

Suddenly he felt someone tug at his sleeve. Panic immediately rose in his soul, but when he turned around, he was surprised to find another student. They wore a purple long-sleeved shirt that had a crescent design on the front. But what surprised Ccino the most was that they were another skeleton monster. The monster looked up at Ccino, who took note of their purple eye lights. They smiled shyly at the cat lover, a small purple blush on their cheeks.

"Um, I was wondering if you would like to... have lunch with me...?" Ccino blinked at them. Did they just ask to have lunch with him? He felt a little bad for them since he already had lunch plans. "S-sorry... But I already have lunch plans with someone else." The smile on the skeleton's face dropped slightly. "O-Oh..." they sounded a bit disappointed, "T-though thank you for asking!" Ccino smiled at them. The cat lover waved a small goodbye to the mysterious student before going off to find Arrow.

Nightmare watched as Ccino walked away. Suddenly he felt Dream come up behind him, "Did you really ask Ccino out to lunch?!" Nightmare's younger twin asked. "He said no..." Nightmare replied shortly. Dream's smile dropped slightly, as he felt the disappointment radiating off of Night.

"It's alright, Nightmare! Maybe next time!" Dream said, trying to cheer his darker twin up. Nightmare only hummed in response. "Yeah... Maybe next time."

"Someone asked you to eat lunch with you?!" Arrow exclaimed. Ccino nodded in response, "Yeah... I kinda feel bad for turning them down..." Ccino stuffed another marshmallow into his mouth, munching happily on the snack. "What did they look like?" His friend asked. The skeleton hummed in thought as he tried to remember what the other looked like, before describing them. "Oh, I know who you're talking about! That's Nightmare."

Ccino tilted his head at the name, "Nightmare...?" Arrow nodded as he took another bite of his sandwich. "Uh-huh. Nightmare Joku! He's a freshman this year. A lot of girls had their eyes on him, but he rejected them all." Arrow told Ccino, "Apparently he already has someone he's interested in." Ccino nodded, "I see." Whoever he likes must really be pretty. Ccino took a bite out of his lunch and sighed. He wondered if one day he would fall in love.

Ccino walked up the flight of stairs, his footsteps echoing throughout the complex. Man, why did his apartment have to be on the third floor? As he reached the third floor, Ccino suddenly smelled smoke. Was someone smoking...? And then the skeleton saw where the source was coming from. At the entrance of the third floor stood the student who had stopped him earlier. They turned to look in his direction and their face lit up. "Ccino!" Nightmare waved at the cat lover happily, "We meet again!" Ccino nodded slowly. He hadn't expected to run into him here.

"Do you live here too? Nightmare asked the other. 'O-Oh! Y- Yeah! I live here." Ccino looked at the cigarette that was in Nightmare's hand, "A-and... um... you're not supposed to smoke inside." He said quietly to Nightmare. "Ah! Sorry about that!" The purple skeleton put out his cigarette and smiled warmly at Ccino, who unlocked his apartment door. "It's such a coincidence that we're neighbors!" Nightmare stated. "I'm so lucky~!" Ccino turned around to look at the purple skeleton, confused at his words.

"Lucky...?" Ccino parroted. Nightmare nodded and stepped closer to Ccino, "Yup! After all... I get to be neighbors with the one I like the most!" Ccino stared at the purple skeleton, his eyes wide, "W-what...?" Did he hear that right? Did Nightmare just say what he thought the other had said? "I like you, Ccino..." Ccino didn't notice the crazed look in Nightmare's eyes as he spoke, "Ever since I first meet you... I liked you, Ccino!"
