Miku had warned him, several times actually. As wretchedly disgusting as his diet was, he still wouldn't turn himself around. Ice cream and sweets were all he ever saw as edible. When they went to the grocery store, it was all he ever bought. Or rather, it was all he ever begged her to buy for him. And she did end up buying it every single time.

"Ugh," Kaito grumbled, his hands clutching at his aching stomach, "I don't get it. I've eaten loads of junk late at night and it's never hurt this much before..."

His teal-haired friend just sighed and wondered why she allowed him to eat another pound of ungodly sugar. She stroked Kaito's fluffy mane, shaking her head and laughing to herself. He was such a child sometimes. His shirt was pulled up, exposing his well-rounded stomach. He was sprawled out across the sofa with his sweaty head resting in her lap.

When she yawned suddenly, Kaito frowned and muttered, "If you're tired then go to bed. I'll be okay."

"Don't be silly. I'm not that sleepy." Miku quickly retorted, her glassy eyes fixed upon his warm visage. Her companion didn't seem convinced though, and reached up to pinch a hunk of her cheek. The reaction was abrupt; all moisture faded from her eyes and sparks flew into her being as she flicked Kaito in the forehead for his little stunt.

"See? You are tired." The glutton replied and rubbed the spot Miku flicked. His grin was enough to send blood rushing into her face, causing her to flip her head to the side to hide her embarrassment. He just chuckled and pressed his face into her abdomen, leeching off of her body heat. Before she could hit him again, she noticed how heavy his own eyes became. It wouldn't be right to deny him a peaceful slumber.

"You're such an idiot." Miku stared down at him and swept his bangs away from his face.

Shifting around her lap, Kaito murmured under his hot breath, "Thanks, Miku."

"F-for what?" The girl inquired and immediately removed her wandering hands from his person. Did he suspect something?

Kaito grabbed one of her stray hands and nuzzled it against his feverish cheek. "You'll always be my favorite flavor..."

"What do you mean, 'favorite flavor?' Kaito," she paused between fist pumps and glanced down at him, "you can't even hear me, can you?"

It was too late for any reprieve. Kaito had already fallen asleep in her lap with one of his arms curled around her leg in a tight embrace, as if she were his stuffed animal or something. Petting his head again, she whispered into the night air,

"You've always been my favorite, too."
