Cheesy
"Ren..?"
"Yes, Horo?"
"Do you like cheese?"
"… What kind of question is that?"
Silence.
"Alright Horo, what's the matter?"
"Nothing! I was just wondering if you liked cheese!"
"Horo…"
"Alright! But geez, you don't have to be so pushy about it," Ren rolled his eyes at the idiot-Ainu. Now, what was it again that he saw in him? He shrugged it off and listened to what he had to say. "Are… you embarrassed?"
"About what?"
"Us." Well, he hadn't expected that… well, maybe he did.
"Why do you ask?" Why? Maybe because you ordered him specifically not to tell anyone that you two are dating, you moron! Of course he's bound to ask a question like that!
"Well… you never let me hug you in public, or kiss you, or let me tell Yoh and the others about us. So are you embarrassed?" Ren sighed. It wasn't because of that… Ren was simply not used to public affection and he was afraid of what Yoh might think of them- he wasn't embarrassed. Heck, he loved the idiot, but still… he didn't want to lose his other few friends.
"It's not because of that, it's just…" Ren walked over to Horo and gave him a peck on his lips. "I'm just not ready," he whispered.
"But I love you, I want to tell the whole world," Horo murmured, letting one of his hands run through Ren's purple hair while using the other to pull him closer. Ren sighed in contentment and allowed Horo to pull him on his lap. He wrapped his own arms around the Ainu's neck. "But… I won't do anything you don't want me to," he whispered in his ear. Yes, that was exactly the way Horo was… he never did anything against Ren's own will. He always waited, was always caring- he never did what he himself wanted to do and always asked Ren first. Horo was sweet and caring… he was everything Ren could ever ask for.
Maybe…
"Maybe… we should tell them," he finally said. It was for the best- he loved the idiot. And if his friends didn't like it… well, he still had Horo. The other boy grinned as he showered Ren with quick kisses on his face and neck- Ren wasn't complaining.
"So…"
"What is it now?"
"… Do you like cheese or not?"
Ren sighed again, wondering how he had ever fallen in love with the idiot-Ainu.
A/N: I blame this on the chocolate I had earlier. Really… it doesn't make any sense, but heck… they are cute, aren't they? XD Nah, I don't know why… it was just something silly I wanted to write O.o… weird.
