"Soooo, Emo, how exactly is the service around here? Will daily meals be brought straight to my door? Are beautiful maids awaiting my every call? OOO! Are you my maid? You may be a bit clumsy... average... and stupid, but I'm certain I'll manage! So so soooo, will you put on a dress and follow my every command Mr. Emo!?" Kokichi continued to loudly asked questions towards the uncomfortable boy beside him. Lucky for Kokichi, The two were walking side by side down the empty hallway leading to their destination. He took this chance to get back at the detective for slamming him with a door by clinging and tease him like their was no tommorow.

"You do know this is an apartment complex, right? Not a hotel... And why would I wear a maid outfit?" Shuichi asked clearly uncomfortable, did this guy have no sense of personal space?

"Because you're toootally into that kind of foreplay! Aren't you Mr.Emo~" Kokichi leaned in closer while smirking seductively, which made Shuichi flinch back. "H-huh?!"

"I'm just teasing, Emo-chan!" He giggled and bounded forward, finally realeasing Shuichi. He turned around while continuing to walk backwards in front of the navy haired boy, his hands laced behind his head with a wide grin as he smirked in satisfaction "I am a liar after all!"

Shuichi's brows furrowed. He couldn't even begin to analyze this guy no matter how hard he tried... This guy just switches from one emotion to the next almost at random. All of his statements contradict one another, and Shuichi was still extremely tired from last night to comprehend any of this...

"Can you please stop calling me emo? I have a name you know" He snapped." It's Shuichi Saihara"

The purple boy lifted an eyebrow in curiousity as Shuichi became aware of what had happened. His hand rose up to pull down his baseball cap in order to cover his eyes that were wide in shock. "I'm... sorry, I don't know why... I'm just tired" He mumbled.

Kokichi began to snicker. "So the withdrawn kitten does have claws! Or he just has a really scary hiss" he teased. Shuichi was about to say something but Kokichi beat him to it. "I was trying to annoy you Saihara-chan~" he grinned, satisfied with how well the new nick name rolled off of his tongue.

Shuichi on the other hand didn't know what was worse, being called Saihara-chan or being called an emo.

"And I succeeded! Haha! There isn't a soul I can't control" his narcissism began to shine brightly to the entirety of Suichis being. " Maybe that's why I have thousands of henchmen across the world who will do as I say without question!" The 20 year old fibbed.

"That's very unlikely" Shuichi voiced in disbelief. "That isn't possible unless you were the boss of a mafia or something. And you don't strike me as that type" he rose a brow.

Kokichi let out a dramatic gasp of offense. "It's totally true! Why would I lie to you~ BUT! I am warning you Saihara-chan! Don't hurt me or anything. If you do, my organization will be on you in a snap!" He gave a childish huff. Shuichi rolled his eyes in response.

"Riiight..." He drawled out. " Anyway, uhm, what exactly... is your name?" The blueberry asked. After all, the boy never introduced himself... And if he where being completely honest. Shuichi really wanted to know, weither that being for positive or negative reasons, even he didn't know.

"Me? Your asking about mwah?" He asked and gasped.

"Why, I'm the one and only Kokichi Ouma of course!" He shouted with a smirk. "This world will be mine, I will be a king! So bow down to me Saihara-chan! Do it while you have the chance, I won't be so henoirous next time~" He ordered and stopped walking. He held out a hand while tilting his head up, as if waiting for Saihara to kneel down and kiss it.

But instead, Shuichi walked right past the grape, making him whine.

'Kokichi Ouma... Why does that name sound so familiar?"

"Saihara-chaaan" he complained running to catch back up. "Why are you being so mean. First rudely slam me in the face with a door and then you-"

"Oh, would you look at that, we are here" he said in releif, rushing past the annoyed boy to a door residing in the first floor. "Rude.." Kokichi begrudgingly followed with a childish pout."I should really be going" Saihara mumbled trying to shove down a yawn.

"Awwe~ but I wanted to spend more time with you!" Kokichi whined clutching onto his arm.

" Five minutes ago you were insulting me" he replied bluntly trying to nudge the guy off of his arm.

"Yeah, buuuut what if I told you it was a lie!" He huffed hugging tighter refusing to let go. "I wanna stay with Saihara-chaaaan

"Eh?! Why are you acting so-"

The conversation was cut off by a phone ringing. Shuichi quickly pulled out a phone that had a checkered case with two little key chains shaped like a magnifying glass and a black baseball cap, much like the one he was wearing right now, attatched. He looked at Kokichi pleading silently for him to let go, the grimlin sighed but complied crossing his arms in disappointment.

"Hello?" The emo asked turning away to have a little privacy after sending a glance Kokichi's way." I wasn't expecting a call from you today..." the boys voice became inaudible as he distanced himself away from Kokichi.

Kokichi's eyes widened slightly in surprise. A checkered phone case exactly like the one Saihara had was a gift one received from KumaSpace after reaching 500k followers! Along with it you had the chance to get two customized key chains of your choice. Purple eyes rose to the nervous anxious boy infront of him. Although it is entirely possible that the case is just a fake, just from standing near the stranger for over two seconds tells him that he wouldn't be the type to do that. Yet again, Kokichi wouldn't have expected the cluts infront of him to be a streamer either.

'So the little emo is actually a MonoPlayer? Hm..I would have never guessed from first glance. Wow Saihara-chan! You sure are full of surprises, Nee-hee-hee!' The boy chuckled lowly.

Maybe this place wouldn't be so boring after all.

The purplenette sighed and walked into the door that lead to the lobby so he could finish checking in.

He took one last glance at Shuichi before slipping away unnoticed.

°•°•°•°•°•°•°

"I wasn't expecting a call from you today Kaito, what's wrong?"

"What do you mean 'what's wrong'? Nothings wrong! Am I not allowed to call my favorite sidekick if I wanna chat??" A loud voice bellowed from the other side.

"You never call me just to chat... Have you by chance accidentally bleach Maki's clothes again?"

"Whaaat, I'd never do something as carless as that... what are you talking about!!"

"What are you talking about, I'm the one who helped you replace every scrap of-"

"THAT'S QUITE ENOUGH SHUICHI!!" The male interrupted. Shuichi was confused as to why Kaito was acting this way, that was until a threatening voice joined the call.

"What exactly did he to my clothes Shuichi.." Shuichi could feel the malice radiating from his smart phone. His mouth suddenly went dry.

Of course he was on speaker phone. He loved his friend, but honestly Kaito is just dense sometimes.

"It's nothing Makiroll! Shuichi is just tired from his stream that... that ran all night! A-aren't you Shuichi!"

"... yeah actually. I was just about to take a nap"

"Wait, you're actually tired?" Kaito asked in surprise before coffing. "I mean, yeah! Of course you are, you must be exhausted !"

Shuichi sighed and rubbed one of his eye slowly.

"So why did you guys call me in the first place?"

" Oh, yeah, about that! Have you heard about the big announcement posted on the KumaSpace community page?"

Shuichi frowned in thought.

"No, I haven't had time to be online today.."

"Kaito, this is taking too long. See? We've already made it to the studio."

"But I haven't told Shuichi-"

"You're already 4 minutes late to the stream, any later and I'll kill you. Sorry Shuichi, but he can call you later, this idiot didn't listen to my instructions earlier"

"Maki wait-"

Saihara sighed and pocketed his phone that just clicked, signalling he was disconnected. So KumaSpace made an announcement? He'd have to check it out later...

Shuichi looked around for the purple haired menace, but was surprised to find him gone. The male sighed. He might as well go back to his room, there will be time for talking later, and the new neighbor has already given him a headache.

Coming to a decision wasn't difficult, so he turned around and began to walk up stairs and through hallways.

Entering his apartment only managed to make him more exhausted then before, he couldn't even keep his eyes open. His door closed with a gentle click and with that he walked all the way to his bedroom with a sigh.

"Maybe... I'll close my eyes for ten minutes" he mumbled and crawled onto the soft comforter. The best pulled him in deep and lured out the sweet embrace of dark slumber. He grabbed a pillow and pulled it under his head. "Yeah, no longer then ten minutes." He whispered allowing his eyelids to fall closed.

"I'll get up in.. ten.. minutes"

And like that, he was easily out cold for the rest of the day.

Is what would have happened if a scream didn't emerge from next door in the middle of the night.
