Eridan looked up to the blonde face across from him. He removed his hand from the base of Dave's neck and reached up slowy to tug at the shades that masked his face. He pulled them off carefully and held his breath in anticipation. Dave had his eye's squeezed shut and he opened them slowly, cautiously.
Eridan stared, he couldn't help himself. His boyfriend was flawless, but what would you expect; he was dating THE one and only Eridan Ampora, one of the most popular kids in school, even if he was kind of an asshole.
Dave looked up to his taller counterpart, and frowned. Eridan's lips were parted and his eyebrows were raised. He looked puzzled but intrigued at the same time. Dave wasn't self-conscious most of the time and generally just didn't give a fuck because that's what a coolkid does, but his eyes were his one 'fatal flaw'. They were a red-orange color that changed according to the light and he had been teasaed about them on countless occasions. People thought they were weird, so he hid them. And he never let anyone see them. Period. But Eridan had bothered him about it practically since they had started dating. So, Dave finally gave in and let him see them. The look on Eridan's face made him regret this descision.
Eridan saw the corners of his boyfriends mouth turn down and his eyes widen. His eyes, they were beautiful, gorgeous, amazing in everyway and the purple-scarfed boy didn't understand why they had to stay hidden behind those gaudy shades all the time.
Dave..."
Dave's freckled head dropped and he reached for his shades, grabbing for them blindly to avoid having to look back into his boyfriends normally-colored eyes.
"Come on, Eridan, just give them back, don't be an asshole about this."
"Quit squirmin' around..shit...just look at me for a second Dave."
Eridan reached up to the shorter one's face and tilted his chin up so that he could see his face properly.
"Dave honestly those are the most fuckin' gorgeous eyes i've ever seen so you need to quit actin' like you're some freak of nature because of them."
"Okay, whatever you say dickwad but i still want my shades back, come on."
"Not a chance."
Eridan smirked and raised the arm holding the oh-so-precious glasses above his head. He watched with amusment as the 5'5 boy stretched to reach them.
Dave stopped reaching and stood still. The smirk seemed to transfer from Eridan's face to Dave's as he got an idea. He reached up to the brunette and tickled his sides.
Eridan was taken by surprise, his eye's widened and he fell into a pile of giggles on the bed in his room.
Oh hell no.
He wasn't going to let this happen.
By now Dave was sitting on top of him, tickling all of the sensitive spots on his torso and shoulders. Eridan reached up and grabbed the blonde by the shoulders. He then rolled him over, stradled his stomach, and pinned his arms by his head.
Eridan gulped breaths of air and smiled widely.
"' bet you thought you had the upper hand didn't you?" he laughed.
Dave gave him a sly smile, "and I bet you think that you have the upper hand now."
The shorter of the two grabbed the taller's shirt and pulled him into a kiss. Eridan was caught off-gaurd and Dave took that oppurtunity to roll over on top of him.
He pulled away and whispered, "you'll never have the upper hand."
