Lucas was walking home like any other day. He didn't expect anything of note to happen along the way, since everything was shaping up to just be another Monday of nothingness. He didn't even do much at Baseball practice. All he did was that; practice. Lucas grew accustomed to this life. He did want to have more excitement in life, but he doubted he would ever be able to do that.

Lucas arrived at his house, still, nothing happened. There was so much nothing that even nothing grew bored. Lucas nodded a "hello" toward his family before walking toward his room. He entered it and sat down with a dissatisfied sigh. That was when his phone buzzed. Lucas rolled his eyes, thinking it was just his friend doing his daily "You a wack-ass-hoe" text. Lucas just placed the phone on the nightstand and laid back against his bed. He kept his eyes on the roof.

Maybe I could take a stroll to the mall tomorrow. Would Ness want to come? Nah, he's very intense in his Baseball. I guess I could go alone.

Lucas's phone had this thing that would happen when he had a text he hadn't read yet. It was a red light that would blink at the top of his phone's face. Lucas saw this light, which was starting to annoy him. "Ugh, screw you, TL," Lucas said. He grabbed the phone and turned it on. He saw that the number that texted him wasn't Toon Link's. It was an unknown number. Lucas perked up and went to the text, after putting his password of N3$$ in. Lucas read the text.

?: Hey

Lucas raised an eyebrow.

Should I respond? I probably shouldn't…..but I am bored. It wouldn't hurt to entertain this…..person for a little while.

Me: Ummmm hi?

?: Hehe, you finally responded

Me: I guess I did

Me: But, who are you?

?: Now now

?: That'd ruin the fun, wouldn't it?

Me: I don't know what you see fun about this

?: Would you like a hint?

Me: I'd like to know your name, that's what

?: Ahhh

?: So a clue it is

Me: ?

?: Don't give me that sass

Me: Just give me the damn clue already

?: Oh?

?: I've piqued your interest

Me: Just hurry the hell up

Me: I'm on a tight schedule

?: Oh right

?: Baseball huh?

?: Oh wait, practice ended, so you're actually free

Me: …..

Me: How'd you know?

?: Well…

?: We do play together

Me: Play…..together?

?: Boom, there's your hint for the day

Me: WHAT?!

?: Mhm, I don't wanna give myself away too soon

Me: Can you at least tell me why you're even contacting me?

?: I like you

Me: You…...like me?

?: Mhm

Me: How so?

?: Ugh, do I have to fucking spell it out fo you?

?: I

?: HAVE

?: A

?: CRUSH

?: ON

?: YOU

?: YOU

?: DUMBASS

Me: …...

?: I've already said too much

Me: Wait

?: G'night

Me: …...fuck you

?: Nah, I think it'll be the other way around ?

?: Now SLEEP

Me: Fine

Lucas placed the phone back on the nightstand and laid back down. He now had something he found somewhat fun. He smiled to himself.

Who is this? They seem to have a crush on me, so that could be good? I mean, my crush would never like me so I guess I could give this person a chance. But wait….what if they're a chick. I've gotta ask them tomorrow.

Lucas was tasked with picking up all the Baseballs that were launched out and never obtained during practice. He ended up having to run all the way over to the end of the track to grab the furthest ball. He bent down to pick it up. "Damn you, Ness."

"Aww, why do you gotta hurt me like this?" Ness's voice said, coming from behind Lucas. Lucas shot up and around. He had a very tiny blush but tried to play it off.

"Cause fuck you, that's what." Ness rubbed his lower lip with his thumb, making Lucas blush some more, so he looked away.

"You should bend down more, that was pretty cute." Lucas growled before turning back toward Ness.

"SHUT UP!" Ness giggled. He playfully patted Lucas's cheek.

"Aww, don't be so brash."

"...Don't be so brash…." Lucas mocked as he started walking away.

"You're just so adorable." Lucas's blush grew deeper and his speed heightened.

Oh shut up already. I hate what you do to me. Can you just, like, stop?

Ness soon joined Lucas on the calm but fast walk back toward the team. They walked in silence but it was a welcomed one, for Lucas at least. Ness found the silence very awkward. "So, wanna hang out?" Lucas brightened up. He turned toward Ness and hopped very slightly. He looked up at the slightly taller boy with hope in his eyes.

"Today!?" Ness was slightly cut off guard by Lucas's sudden change in enthusiasm. He started rubbing his neck nervously.

"S-sorry, but I can't do it today. I'm…..busy." Lucas's eyes instantly lowered before he turned away.

"Oh. Ok," Lucas sadly said. He started walking ahead of Ness. Lucas got quite far before Ness even thought of moving.

He slammed his fist into his forehead as he yelled, "Stupid!"

I messed it up. How could I do that? If I just said tomorrow, then it would've been fine, but noooooo, I just had to mess it up. I guess it's just what I do.

Lucas sat down on his bed and yawned. He laid back, with his feet still planted on the ground, and sighed. He still can't get what Ness said out of his head.

Come on! Stop it! He just misspoke. I can't believe I acted like that….

Lucas's phone buzzed. Lucas sat up and grabbed the phone rather quickly. He saw that it was the mystery person. Lucas grew a very tiny smile as he unlocked his phone and went to the text.

?: You were cute today

Me: ….

Me: Way to be creepy

?: Hehe, you didn't deny it though

?: Were you trying to be cute cause you know someone likes you?

Me: Shut up, what do you want now?

?: Oh, I just thought you wanted another hint to who I am

Me: Yes please

?: Ooooo

?: You're really interested

Me: ?

?: Well, ask a question, I may answer it

Me: What's your name?

?: No

Me: Fuck you

?: Did you really think that would work?

Me: Fine

Me: Ummm, are you a boy or a girl?

?: Does it really matter?

Me: Yes

Me: It very much does

?: How so?

Me: Just tell me

?: I'm a boy

Me: I see

?: Is that a good "I see" or…..

Me: Good for you, I guess

Me: So a boy on my baseball team?

?: Mhm

Me: So literally any of them is possible

?: ?

?: Do you have a crush?

Me: If I did, why would I tell you?

?: Does anyone know

Me: No

?: Then, if the truth of your crush comes out, so would mine

?: Only I would know so…..it's like we both have a stake in this

Me: I never wanted a stake in this.

?: Come on, you can't deny that I've piqued your interest

Me: Fine

Me: Yes, I do have a crush

?: Oooooo

?: Who is it?

Me: …...

Me: Someone named Ness

?: ? ゚ᄂᆵ? ゚ᄂᆵ? ゚ᄂᆵ? ゚ᄂᆵ?

Me: Shush

?: Hehe, no worries

?: Your secret is safe with me

Me: It better be

?: Ooooo, the bottom bitch is acting tough now?

Me: What're you calling me?

?: Hehe, you thought I didn't know?

Me: I…...

Me: I don't know what you're talking about

?: Mhm, right

?: Deny it all you want

?: I'll be more than willing to be your top?

Me: Pfft, no offense, but…..

Me: I doubt you can measure up to what I've used

Me: Literally

?: Oh?

?: Want me to prove my worth?

Me: How're you gonna do that?

?: Well, I had an idea, but I don't wanna scare you away

?: So don't worry

Me: Come onnnn

Me: I can handle anything

?: Hehe

?: Fine, but you brought this upon yourself

After a certain NSFW picture was sent

Me: Oh my

Me: Ahem, it's uh

Me: It's…...nice

Me: Nono, that's not exactly what I meant

Me: Ummm…..

Me: Ugh, it looks…...great, ok?

?: Hehe

Me: Ummm….

Me: HEY!?

Me: Just…...don't allow anyone else to see it

?: You really do trust me with it?

Me: Well….

Me: I don't trust you

Me: But you sent yours so…..it was only fair

?: Hehe

?: I'll cherish it forever

Me: Ugh

?: Oh, I guess I can give another clue as a thanks

?: My position in our team is heavily focused on catching fly balls

Me: I see

Me: Thanks?

?: No worries

?: Oh trust me, I know you're blushing

?: I know how to make you blush

?: Oops, I've said too much again

?: Buh-bye love?

Me: ….

Me: Night…...dude

Lucas entered the locker room. Their practice was a tad awkward for Lucas. He kept the picture that the mystery person sent in his mind. So, the entire time during practice, he tried to assign the image to each of the members of his team, which weren't the best images to see. This did result in a poor practice by Lucas, which was why he was told to head home early. Lucas took his shirt off, still slightly in a dazed state.

Ness entered the locker room and saw Lucas at the end of the room trying to put his pants over his upper body…..like a shirt. Ness cleared his throat, kicking Lucas out of his daze. Lucas looked at Ness and saw the rim of his pants fall over his eyes. He stayed still as Ness walked toward him. "I…..have my pants on my head, don't I?" Ness looked Lucas up and down and enjoyed the sight of a nude Lucas. He giggled to himself. Before he responded, he looked where Lucas's head would be, as to not expose himself.

"Yes." Lucas sighed. He took the pants off and turned around. Ness raised an eyebrow. "You doing alright? You were off your game." Lucas started putting on his clothes in the proper way. Before he put on his shirt, he turned around.

"Ness…..this may sound weird but…"

"Go on, shoot." Ness noticed Lucas's nervous state. Not once has he seen this. Even when he constantly made Lucas blush and flustered, he never saw this much nervousness come from him. Lucas placed the shirt aside and stepped forward, making the space between the two boys shorten. Ness started leaning back as he raised an eyebrow.

The hell's gotten into him?

"Can you take off your clothes?" Ness's mind died instantly, although he stayed standing. A long and awkward silence fell over the boys, the awkwardness hitting both boys like an elephant.

"...Excuse me…...what?"

"You heard me, I want your clothes off." Lucas grabbed the rim of Ness's pants and underwear. "Or at least these."

"What the hell's wrong with you, why would I—" Lucas didn't bother with hearing Ness out, and just ripped them down. He looked at the sight and compared it to the picture. Lucas sighed. All of Ness's blood rushed all the way up to his face, and his heart was racing like Shane Dawson toward a kid.

"Ugh, it's not hard."

"AND WHY THE HELL WOULD IT BE!" Lucas looked up and smiled.

"I'll just make it that way." At that moment the door opened.

"Yo, guys, Captain was wondering if—" Toon Link started, but stopped when he saw the sight that was going down. Lucas and Ness looked at him. Toon Link looked between the two boys for a while before sliding away, without even really moving his feet. "GUYS, NESS AND LUCAS ARE GAY AS HELL!" Ness shakily looked back down at Lucas's face, who now just seemed to understand just what he was doing. Lucas shot up and started chuckling very nervously. He started stuttering as if he was in the middle of a blizzard, which Ness honestly found to be cute. Lucas's face was somehow more red than Ness's, and Lucas's heart was beating so fast that it felt like it wasn't beating at all. After about a good two minutes of stuttering, Lucas was finally able to apologize before running off. Ness finally pulled up his clothes and smiled to himself.

Damn you TL. I could've had fun if it wasn't for your wack ass. Ugh…..Although, he did allow me to have more fun with him. Hehe, I wonder how long I'll keep this up. I kinda like how he got just then. Yeah, I'll keep this up for a little longer at least.

A few months later.

Lucas sat on his bed, staring at the phone on his nightstand. He was tapping his foot quickly, each time feeling like an earthquake to him. "Come onnnnn, where the hell are you….." Lucas was waiting for the text from the mystery person. Lucas talked to this person every day for the past few months. After the first few days, he got rid of the whole "trying to figure who this is" mindset, and just wanted to have fun. He didn't care if this person was secretly a 50-year-old man, all he cared about was that it gave him a warm and tingly feeling. This person also, countless times, helped Lucas….ease his stress in the way most teenage boys do in private. The number of times Lucas has sent a picture or even a video of himself doing it outnumbers the number of grains of sand. That's a tad bit of an over-exaggeration, but still…..

The phone buzzed, and Lucas clapped his hands before grabbing it. Once he turned the phone on he realized, it was just Toon Link. "Ugh."

TL: Yo, Gay boy

Me: What?

TL: Damn

TL: Not even a hello?

Me: I was waiting for someone to text me

TL: Well, here I am

Me: No

TL: Awww

TL: Was that necessary?

Me: Yes

TL: ?

Me: Now leave me alone

TL: Fine

TL: Asshole

Lucas groaned some more as he placed the phone back on the nightstand. He still kept his eyes on the phone, waiting for the faithful buzz. But there was still nothing. Lucas started growing anxious.

Does he not wanna talk anymore? Did I scare him away? No, I don't want that. Come back…..please.

Nope, still nothing. The room is quieter than Lucas when he tried on a gag.

Ugh. You know what, imma just text him. Yeah, he'll have to respond. But what if he doesn't? No, I can't think like that. I have to do this. I have to meet him.

Lucas grabbed the phone.

Me: Ummm hi

?: Huh?

?: Oh wow, you texted me

Me: ….yeah, I guess I did

?: Is something wrong?

Me: Kinda

?: Well, what is it?

Me: Why can't we meet already?

?: Because I'm scared

Me: Scared of what?

?: Showing you who I am

Me: Come onnnnn

Me: I literally showed you every damn part of my body

Me: Often times in different sex positions

?: Well, that's you

?: Not me

?: …..I don't want to be made fun of

Me: I wouldn't make fun of you

?: …..

?: You really wouldn't make fun of me?

Me: Not at all

?:

?: Fine

?: You know that arcade in the Ultimall?

Me: Yeah, that's like my favorite place

?: Good…..meet me there

Me: YAY

?: I've always loved your enthusiasm

Me: Hehe thanks

Me: See you soon?

?: …..

?: Yeah

Lucas placed the phone in his pocket and instantly rushed out of the house. Only once out there did he realize he didn't have a shirt or shoes. He slowly walked back in to put them on. After doing that, he, once again, rushed out of the house. He ran through the afternoon aroma that had engulfed Ultimatum. He knew just how far the Ultimall was from his house, but he didn't really care. He would've run all the way to Japan if he needed to.

It took him around half an hour to make it to the mall, and he ran the entire time. Once he entered the mall he hunched over and started breathing heavily. He started coughing as he continued to walk toward the arcade, which was on the third floor. Lucas took escalators to go to the second floor then the third. The arcade was still quite the way away from him though. "Jesus, I don't remember it being this far away." He shook his head and continued.

He soon made it to the arcade. It was somewhat packed. The kids were loud and running around, pretty much everything expected out of an arcade. Lucas walked over to his personal favorite machine, a crane game that grabbed plushies of his favorite anime characters. He planted his face against the glass as he stared at the Shoyo Hinata plushie he had tried to get many, many times. He has wasted a total of $50 dollars trying to get it, but failing each dollar. "Yo, Lucas," Ness's voice came from behind Lucas. Lucas turned his head and raised an eyebrow.

"Oh, hey Ness." Lucas looked back at the machine. Ness decided to lean against it, being slightly in Lucas's line of sight. "How'd you know I was gonna be here?" Ness crossed his arms, surprised at how clueless Lucas was.

"I told you to meet me here."

"No, you didn't…." Lucas turned toward Ness with a confused face, "the mystery number di—" Lucas realized what had happened. Ness was the mystery person. Lucas took a step back and stared at Ness in the eyes. "Ness….?" Ness averted his gaze as to not see Lucas's accidental judgemental face. Lucas soon smiled and blushed hard. He walked to Ness and brought him into a weird hug since Lucas was hugging from Ness's side. Ness was able to adjust himself so Lucas could be hugging him properly.

"Lucas?" Lucas looked up and smiled a cute smile.

"Why didn't you tell me, asshole?"

"I didn't think you'd like me." Lucas broke up the hug and stepped back. Lucas gave Ness a look of disbelief.

"I almost sucked your dick that one time, how would I NOT like you?" Ness started rubbing his neck.

"I….I also kinda enjoyed how you were acting over the phone." Lucas smiled and walked back to Ness. Lucas planted his head on Ness's chest.

"Well, now I can act that way in person." Ness couldn't help a smile and a single tear of joy. Ness placed a hand in Lucas's hair and slightly scratched. Ness patted Lucas's shoulder, prompting Lucas to back off. Ness then faced the machine. He inserted a dollar and started moving the crane. Lucas, like before, slammed his head into the glass and kept his eyes on the plushie. "Come on Nessy, you can do it." Ness smiled as the crane got closer to the plushie. Ness stopped the crane right above the plush. He adjusted it a bit before pressing the button. Lucas glared at the crane as it went down in seemingly slow motion. "Come on you piece of shit, grab my baby!"

"Are you talking to me or the crane?"

"Shut up, I'm focusing." Ness giggled, happy that Lucas hadn't changed too much from the realization that Ness has been the mystery person. The crane grew closer and closer to the plush. Eventually, the hooks of the crane surrounded Hinata. Lucas started growling at the crane as if trying to intimidate it into grabbing Hinata successfully. The hooks close in on Hinata, grabbing him by his head. The crane moves up, keeping Hinata in its clutches. Lucas started hopping as he barked quietly. Once the crane made it all the way up, Hinata showed no sign of escaping the crane. The crane moved over to the hole, still keeping Hinata. Lucas started beaming. The crane then dropped Hinata into the hole. Ness won. Lucas instantly jumped with a loud "YAY!"

Ness grabbed Hinata and faced Lucas. Lucas was bouncing, eager to grab the plush. Ness decided to play around a little. Ness, being taller, held up the plush enough for Lucas to not reach it. Lucas tried to reach it, but couldn't get it. He could've gotten it if he simply jumped, but for one reason or another, he didn't. "Gimmegimmegimmegimmegimme!" Ness giggled as he held the plush higher up.

"Kiss me first," Ness joked. He didn't expect Lucas to ever kiss him, which was why he was surprised when Lucas did. Lucas kissed Ness right on the lips for a good minute. Once Ness started melting into the kiss, he started to lower his arm. Lucas took advantage of this and grabbed Hinata. Once he had the plush firm in his grip, he bounced back with joy.

"YES!" Ness just looked at Lucas with surprise on his face. He rubbed his lips. A smile crept onto his lips. Ness cleared his throat and turned away.

"Well—" Ness stopped himself once he felt something grab his left arm. He looked and saw that Lucas had come in close and started hugging his arm. Lucas still kept Hinata in his free hand. Lucas was also looking up with a deep blush and a wide, happy smile.

"Let's go eat, I'm hungry." Ness lowered his head and kissed Lucas's forehead.

"Sounds like a deal." Ness looked forward and smiled to himself. The two of them, and Hinata, walked out of the arcade, all three with a wide, innocent, happy smile.
