How much sleep have you gotten this past week?¨ ¨Pft im a TV i dont need sleep¨ Vee laughs ¨ Okkkayyy¨ Connie says while drifting away Connie slept while floating, Gourdy slept at the edge of the couch,Yatta,Gigi And Finn slept on the floor Sprouts eyes slightly opened He got up and began looking around Everyone was still asleep He wiped his eyes and headed to the door ¨ Vee?¨ Sprout mumbled, still half asleep Vee didn't answer He calls her again, still trying to stay quiet to not wake anyone up ¨Hmmm?¨ He hears faintly from the inside Sprouts eyes widen That didn't sound like Vee “ Vee?” he asked “ Yepp” She mumbles “ You.. aren’t sleeping?” “Noope.” “ aand you aren’t planning to? Also.. Uhm… hows Bassie?” “ No, I can’t sleep.. And Mmm Shess fineee” Vee yawns Sprout stays silent “ You do you.” as he walks to the door He grabs the doorknob and gently twists it so it wouldn’t make noise He opened the door and slowly closed it and began walking to the edge of the stage where the stairs were and took a seat Something had been spiking his neck so he reaches his arm and finds a flower From.. Bassie He puts it up to his head “I’m… Sorry..” He mumbled “ All of this… all of this is my.. fault.. I couldn’t protect you well enough..” Tears formed in his eyes “Please… be okay.” He put the flower in the ripped part of his scarf so it would stick with him He went back inside and locked the door He fell back asleep pretty fast but it wasn't very long until everyone woke up and decided to wake him up too Its been almost half a day since Bassie got infected Well Vee is saying she's fine.. So he trusts her He wiped his eyes to see clearly Vee opened the inner door and yawned, stretching her arms out She looked at Sprout then began laughing “Vee..Please say you’ve figured something out” She grabs his shoulders and starts shaking him “Juuust give me a bittt.. Maybe later today” Vee says while giggling He gives her a sour expression “ Don't worry Sprout.” She closes the door Over the day he was playing games,sleeping or just sitting Until Vee called his name He got up instantly and sprinted to the room “ EY EY SLOW DOWN” Vee shouts as Sprout fails to slow down when he slips on a piece of paper and falls on the floor “ Slow down.. You wouldn’t want to wake her up” Vee says softly Sprout froze, those words were as if someone gave him everything When he walked through the doorway Bassie was asleep On the other side of the room Astro had been wrapped up while lying down, Bobette still in the cage, growling at every movement anyone would make. “ The.. cure” Sprout stuttered He glanced at Bassie’s hand, Which was wrapped up There was no remnants of the leaves on her hand Vee started to push him “ Now go away, now you know she's okay so shoo” When he walked out the door, He grabbed his scarf and smiled
