(*A distant past*)

*No P.O.V*

"Hehe! I'm gonna get you Loony!", a small child like voice giggled.

"No you won't! Bleh!", another child teased.

The two small children seemed to be playing a very fun game of tag. Best friends just having tons of fun in childhood.

Moments later, the small chubbier one with salmon like hair falls to the ground. As he falls, the other with blonde hair trips over him and falls as well.

Silence fell between the two as suddenly the two burst out into a fit of giggles and laughs. They stand back up as their parents call for each child respectively.

Deciding they could play more after, they rush to their respected parents and have lunch. Though, for one family, it was a very quick lunch.

Packing up, the salmon hair's family quickly left the park, leaving the child very distraught. He didn't even get to say goodbye to his best friend!

Back at the park, the blonde child had just finished his lunch and went back to look for his best friend. However, his salmon hair friend was nowhere to be found.

Tearing up, he rushes back to his parents to express his sadness. His parents comfort him and explain the sad news to him.

His friend was moving away and they couldn't do anything about it. Upon hearing this, the blonde-haired child began to cry at the news.

No more could they go on fun play trips... For now... they lived far away from each other, with no contact whatsoever.

Sadness was what both boys felt... but years soon passed and they grew up. Both now in their early 20s and have very faint memories of one another...

(*Present Time*)

*Balloon's P.O.V*

I wasn't really ready for today... not at all. Just another day outside in the woods with no real way of getting food.

Sure. There was a very nice hotel near me... but the owner, OJ, who was my own cousin; wouldn't let me in.

Why? ... Cause he doesn't love me. Or, that's what I believe anyways. It's also cause he doesn't trust me with being with the other residents inside.

... But it doesn't matter. Heh. It's better for me to be out here... where I can just rot away. Nobody there really... liked me anyways.

Nevermind that though. My current mindset was focused on a dream. It was a little weird though...

The dream was of my past. I was at a playground with... somebody. I don't remember who... But their hair was the most prominent feature.

Blonde hair that was poofy and curly. Soft to the touch and smelled like cherry. Heh, that sounded very weird.

Other than the hair, the person had freckles and some sort of skin condition. I think it was called Vitiligo or something like that.

It was very pretty and looked cool on them. Wait, why the hell am I going this deep into my dream?!

Shaking off the thoughts from my mind, I stood up from my very shabby tent and made my way towards the hotel. Maybe this time OJ will let me inside...

As I walked towards the hotel, I saw lights going on and off. Oh, OJ was throwing another party it seemed...

Maybe I should just try to sneak in. Yea. Maybe I could get some food from a higher up room, since everyone was downstairs anyways!

Rushing towards the back of the hotel, I pushed open the door since it was a bit heavy. Sneaking my way in, I head upstairs to see if I could nab a snack or two.

Heading up to the 5th floor, I browsed the place in sorts of any sort of room where snacks could be held. Let's see, nothing so far... man this sucks.

Wait. I hear something. It... sounded like a plane of sorts. Not weird, but... it sounded like... it was getting closer??

That's about when my whole world turned dark. I was knocked out by.... Something.

*No P.O.V*

Right before Mephone could announce who was getting into the newest season of Inanimate Insanity, he had to revive 2 people. 1st, he revived OJ, the hotel manager.

Though, OJ wished he was still dead so he didn't see the heavy damage from the plane crash. 2nd he had to receive... Balloon?

Not one to question things, Mephone soon revived Balloon as well. Upon coming back from the dead, Balloon was very confused and very anxious.

Everybody was staring directly at him, and it made him super uneasy. His thoughts were plagued with thoughts.

'Why was Balloon here?'

'How did he die? I bet it was by something stupid!'

'Where did Balloon even come from?'

All those thoughts and more was all Balloon could hear in his mind. It ate him up as he became very self conscious about his appearance.

Mephone soon introduced the brand new contestants and revealed that some of the older ones would get another shot at playing the game.

How would this be decided? Well by the fate of a slot machine of course! Mephone spun for the 1st old contestant who would be joining back for season 2.

It rolled for a bit before it landed on Balloon. Gasps could be heard as they looked towards the salmon hair boy.

Balloon could barely hear as he was having a very obvious panic attack. Some didn't even think of helping, heck, they didn't bother asking if he was okay.

All but a small handful didn't pay any mind to Balloon. But only one decided to be brave enough to go and help.

"Hey. Are you okay?", a faintly familiar voice asked.

Looking up very slightly, Balloon caught a glimpse of a boy. A boy with blonde, poofy hair, freckles and vitiligo skin.

Still shaking a bit, Balloon pulls this boy into a hug. Not really caring, the blonde boy hugs back hoping to calm down Balloon.

While this was happening, Mephone kept going and soon he got enough people to join season 2 of Inanimate Insanity.

As he explained the game to the contestants, Balloon was finally calming down from his very bad panic attack. His breathing went back to normal as he looked up at the blonde boy again.

"Hey! You feeling any better?", the blonde hair boy asked.

Not finding the strength to talk, Balloon could only nod to the boy's question. Smiling at the answer, the boy hugs Balloon more.

"That's gouda! Ah. The name's Cheesy by the way. What's your name?", Cheesy introduced.

"B-ba... Balloon...", Balloon mustered.

"Balloon huh? Sounds familiar. Well it's nice to meet you!", Cheesy smiled.

This simple interaction perked Balloon up a tad bit as he smiled back at Cheesy. And this was the beginning of something more.

As the game went on, Balloon and Cheesy became very close friends. Of course, none could ever decipher the dreams still of the past...

But it didn't matter. Since in a way, without them knowing, brought them back together again.

So they bonded over the course of the game, on and off the show. Cheesy sadly was eliminated, but they still kept in contact.

With their now distanced friendship, Balloon kept pushing onward. It's what Cheesy would've wanted. A shame he couldn't confess to him sooner... maybe one day he could.
