"Haha! Go go!" You cheered, putting your hands in the air as Mathias pushed you in a rolling desk chair around the huge store. You were hanging out with your five friends, and of course you and Mathias were the ones goofing off.

The six of you got separated and everyone was looking for each other. Well, you and Mathias weren't. From right when you walked into the store, all of you went separate ways. From what the two of you gathered, Tino was with Berwald, and Lukas was with Emil.

You laughed as you stepped out of the chair once it stopped rolling, landing on shaky feet. You grinned at your companion who rolled the chair back into it's place in the model bedroom. You two had done two complete circles on the bottom floor; One with you pushing Mathias, and vice versa.

"It has to have been at least an hour by now." You grumbled, pushing up your sleeve and glaring at your watch, as if it would turn back time in fear. "Shall we go up a level and look for them there?"

Your Danish friend nodded and grinned grabbing your hand and dragging you forward to an escalator. Oh boy, you did not like those things. You flushed when your friend grabbed your hand—Wait, why did you do that? He was just a friend…. Right?

The Dane didn't seem to notice however. You hesitated on the first step, looking down a little fearfully. You hated these things. Moving up and down with practically nothing to hold on to. Getting close to the slanted ceiling as it went up. Even the fact that if you tripped backwards, you would just keep rolling to the bottom!

Mathias paused and examined the look on your face, frowning and tilting his head. He tugged on your hand again until you stumbled onto the first step with a loud squeak. There were a few people up ahead of you, but the escalator was mostly deserted. You had a fearful look as you got up to the step your crush was on, involuntarily clinging to his arm.

"(Y/N)….?" He asked curiously, looking down at you. "..You alright?" The look in his bright blue eyes was one of concern, and he wrapped his other arm around your shoulders and pulled you into a hug. "….Hvad sker der?"

You turned scarlet at his actions and shook, glancing up at him. "Er,…. I-I.. I-I'm s-scared of escalators-s…" You mumbled bashfully, hiding your face in his chest. This was one of the rare times you got this close to him, well, other than when the two of you wrestled. You were great friends, and you just clicked… And maybe on a higher level than friendship.

Mathias frowned again, trying to think of what to do to distract you… Or even to just help.  Once an idea popped in his head, he smirked and pulled away from you just a little. You blinked, feeling rejected and looked down at your feet. But a hand went under your chin and forced you to look up into his blue sparkling eyes, before he closed them and leaned in. He placed his soft lips upon yours and your eyes widened, freezing. You felt your blush rise again and you slowly began to kiss back, completely forgetting about the escalator, carrying you up higher.

You felt the Dane smile at your actions, wrapping his arms back around your waist. You pulled away for air and quickly found yourself being mauled with kisses again as your heart soared. You went to kiss him again, only to be interrupted by a loud bang, coming somewhere from behind Mathias' back.

You leaned over as Mathias turned, both a little awed at the sight you saw. Emil was standing there with a neutral expression on his face, two Ping Pong Paddles in his hands and knocking them together. Lukas was shaking salt and pepper shakers, Tino had a wind-up flashlight he was cranking, and Berwald gave a wave. They all must have regrouped and had a hunch this would happen… Apparently Mathias was the only one who didn't listen when you talked to them.

They even found their own noise makers to celebrate. You smiled up at Mathias and he smiled back. You two hopped off of the escalator when it reached it's destination, and got on the one next to it at the rest of your friends were on, going down. Once you all got to the bottom you held hands with Mathias, walking out the doors that read "IKEA" in big yellow letters with the rest of the gang.

"M'thias. Y'u can kiss in my st're. But n' sex."
