Cold, dark, quiet.. That's all his room was then, only the faintest moonlight peeking in through the window. Breathing had become shallow and hardly audible, yet he still couldn't get himself to sleep. Deep blue hues came into view as the blonde boy opened his eyes and turned his gaze to the clock, the cruel glowing numbers reading '3:18'. He allowed a soft sigh to pass his cold lips and closed his eyes once more in an attempt to sleep.
Thoughts began dissolving, and in that moment… Crash!
Len's eyes shot open as he threw himself into a sitting position and tossed the covers off, his curiosity lit like a fire at the odd sound. He slid off the bed and sunk his teeth into the delicate tissue of his bottom lip, beginning to take slow steps out of the room. Carefully, as to not wake his sleeping twin sister, he opened and closed the door as quiet as he could manage.
Cold, slender hands slid through the silky blonde hair and managed a loose ponytail, multiple strands falling over his curious blue hues and porcelain facial features. He frowned at the messiness of his attempt to put his hair up, but shrugged it off to check for the source of the sound he had heard earlier. Though he didn't understand why anyone would be up at such a time, he suspected the person to be suffering the same problem as he was.
He stumbled a bit, unable to see anything other than what seemed to be an endless darkness, when he heard a crashing sound come from what he thought was the kitchen. It couldn't hurt to check, could it..? The boy shifted his direction to the kitchen, and sure enough, there was light shining through and open doorway that led to it. Maybe it was just Kaito eating ice cream...
Len continued walking and eventually made it into the kitchen, near being blinded by the light shining in his eyes after getting so used to the dark. He blinked a few times before his eyes finally decided to adjust and he could see clearly.
"H-hello.." Said the white haired boy in a soft voice laced with a hint of nervousness.
A kind smile tugged at the corners of Len's lips while he approached the boy. "Hello, Piko!" He replied cheerfully before pulling the other into a tight hug, forcing the oxygen in his lungs to escape.
A soft smile graced Piko's lips once the Kagamine boy let go of him and allowed him to breathe. A small and somewhat feminine hand brushed the hair out of his face before being placed on his hip, the smile plastered onto his too-pale facial features held perfectly. Then Len realized he was staring and felt his cheeks heat up. He quickly averted his eyes and stared at the floor while he thought of something to say, but Piko beat him to it.
"What are you doing up..?" Piko asked softly, shattering the silence as if it were glass.
"I could ask you the same thing," Len said with a light chuckle. He shifted his gaze to the taller boy once more and tried desperately to ignore the blush creeping onto his cheeks. Blush? He didn't know why he was blushing to begin with and looked back down to hide it. They had sung a few songs together before, but that wasn't a reason to blush, was it?
"Well I- Len, are you okay?" He heard Piko ask, forcing him back into reality. Looking up, he saw that Piko's previous expression had been replaced by a concerned one, lips curled downwards to form a soft frown, hues filled with an emotion he couldn't place, and brow furrowed. Len simply nodded in reply, but Piko didn't seem to accept it, and pressed the back of his right hand against his forehead. Piko's hand was unsurprisingly smooth against his skin, and for some unknown reason, made his heart flutter.
If Len thought he was blushing before...
Unable to help it, the blonde's cheeks burst with a strawberry red colour at the touch. 'Why am I blushing?' He asked himself, his facial features growing more and more confused as Piko's grew more and more concerned.
"You seem sick," Said the white haired boy as he removed his hand, again placing it on his hip.
However, Len wasn't listening, but trying to figure out what was wrong with him. "Maybe sleeping will help.. Goodnight, Utatane!" He smiled warmly and quickly began walking away, getting only a soft 'goodnight' in reply.
Once he made it back to his and Rin's room, he tried to sleep, and finally succeeded. He had a dream, as well. About the boy known as Piko Utatane.

I know that the title makes no sense but I couldn't think of anything, so that's what it ended up with. X3
