I would call this next Noex fic a fluffy bunny...but after this most recent episode, I don't think I can do that with a straight face! XD Seriously...an Evo BUNNY! ROFL! Not to mention the fangirl factor: shirtless Rex at the beginning combined with Noah AND Rex in a tux AT THE SAME TIME. And on that subject...NOAH IS BACK! YAY! It's about time too! Our fav blonde kid needs some screen time! I figured, to honor the occasion, the next Weak Spot oneshot would be a Noex. That girl Noah dated...eh...whatever. She can just go do...whatever. Annie was AWESOME! I actually know some people like that! I wanted to hug her! But that act could be fatal... Okay, enough rambling! Here's a Noex section of Weak Spots! Our star is...NOAH! (In honor of his long-overdue screen time.) Noah gets injured when Rex is jumped by an Evo in the woods. Majorly sickening fluff ensues (I'm suffering Fluffitis again). SHIRTLESS NOAH ALERT! Enjoy! ^_^

BUNNIES! LOL! *falls on floor laughing*
"Gotcha..." Rex panted, pressing his hand against the fallen Evo and starting to absorb the excess nanites. He watched the large, mutant purple and blue rat slowly shrink down until it was nothing more than a simple chipmunk. The tiny rodent looked up, slightly dazed, before shaking its head and scampering away. "Phew..." He turned around and grinned. "Work! It follows you everywhere, huh Noah?" His grin faded when he saw the form of Noah sprawled out on the ground.
"Noah!" Rex ran over and knelt down beside his friend. "Are you okay?" His eyes widened as he saw blood rapidly staining Noah's chocolate-brown shirt. "Oh man...Noah, try to turn over. Lie on your back." Noah obeyed, groaning slightly as he did so. "That's it..." He whispered soothingly. "Here..." He coaxed Noah into shrugging off his jacket before gently pulling his shirt over his head.
"Ugh..." Noah stretched up his arms slightly as his shirt came off. "Stupid thing slashed me while you were chasing it... First a bunny, now a rat. What's next? A squirrel?"
"Probably." Rex muttered pulling off his own jacket. "They're already pretty evil on their own." 'Okay, if he can crack jokes, it can't be too serious...' Still, he frowned slightly as he examined Noah's wound. It was long, thin, and moderately deep. It was bleeding just enough to require a binding. Quickly, Rex started tearing strips from his jacket. 'Thank goodness Holiday started teaching me the finer points of First Aid...' "Don't move..." He murmured.
"Oh darn..." Noah replied sarcastically. "I was just planning on running a Triathlon." He flinched involuntarily as the cloth from Rex's jacket began pressing into his cut.
Rex rolled his eyes as he tied the cloth firmly around Noah's shoulder and side, covering the gash. He pressed the rest of the torn jacket onto the wound to stop the bleeding. Hopefully, it would stop in a few minutes... "Sorry..." He sighed, pressing firmly on the cut. "I thought the woods would be a relatively Evo-free, Providence-free zone to chill in."
"You were half right." Noah tried to smile but grimaced at the dull, throbbing pain in his chest. "And don't worry about it! A day isn't complete until at least one of us starts bleeding!"
Rex chuckled a little. "True that, Noah. True that." The bleeding was already ebbing, thankfully. Rex's eyes flashed in sympathy at Noah's failed attempt to smile. He almost reached out and brushed his hand against his friend's cheek, but pushed the impulse down just in time. "So..." He said instead, "How was your date with Clair the other day?" He felt a jolt in his chest. Why did he bring up that subject?
"Eh..." Noah felt his face flush. "Um...I don't think it's gonna work out..." He winced a little as Rex pressed down on his wound again.
"Yeah? How come?" Rex's eyes wandered as he pressed on the gash. He gazed at Noah's flushed skin, his sparkling gray eyes, his soft golden locks... 'Stop! Bad Rex!'
"Er...Don't really wanna say..." Noah carefully avoided Rex's eyes. 'No way can I tell him! He'd never talk to me again!'
"Was she a jerk?" Rex pulled his bloody, tattered jacket remains away as the cut finally stopped bleeding. "Just lie still for awhile." He added as he tossed the cloth to the side.
"Kay." Noah muttered. "And no...she wasn't a jerk. It's just...I don't feel...a...connection. I think it was something I was trying to...force, but there was never anything...there." Noah spoke carefully, trying not to let anything show. "She's...more of a friend."
"I see." Rex nodded, touching his hand absentmindedly to Noah's chest. "Feeling any better?"
"A...little..." Noah's heart was beating impossibly fast. 'Why is his hand still there?'
"Don't worry about Clair." Rex said, grinning easily. "There are other girls out there!" 'Key word being "girls".' His hand moved softly until it was resting gently on the left side of Noah's chest, over his heart.
An unexpected warmth flooded through Noah's body as Rex's hand touched the area of his chest where his heart was. His face turned red and a soft gasp escaped his throat. Rex quickly drew his hand back, though the feeling still lingered.
"Did I hurt you?" Rex asked, his eyes wide with concern. 'Snap! Stupid, stupid, stupid!'
"N-No..." Noah whispered, his voice unnaturally soft. "It's f-fine..." 'What's the matter with me? Keep cool, Noah! Keep cool!'
"Okay..." This time, the urge to touch Noah's cheek overpowered Rex's rational mind. Tentatively, he reached out and brushed his fingers against the blonde's flushed face. It was warm... Rex gazed at that blushing face. Was he blushing?
"I th-think I can s-sit up now..." Noah propped himself up on his elbows and tried to push himself into a sitting-up position. 'Come on...' Suddenly, he was surrounded by warmth. Rex's arms were wrapping around him, pulling him up.
"Here, let's just-" Rex stopped speaking abruptly. He hadn't expected Noah's face to become so close when he pulled him up! Trying to hide his blush, he wrapped one arm around Noah's back. "There we go..." He said in a very quiet voice. His right hand fell into a natural position on Noah's chest.
The gentle pressure of Rex's hand on his bare chest combined with the surrounding warmth of his other arm was too much for poor Noah to bear. His eyes closed and he whimpered longingly as his heart started to beat faster and faster.
For a split second, Rex thought he might have actually hurt Noah this time. He was just opening his mouth to apologize when realization dawned on him. He looked from his hand, which was on the uninjured area of Noah's chest, to Noah's face, which was even redder than before. He could feel an odd sense of excitement. Could it be...? He watched as Noah opened his eyes and looked up at him. His expression was...shy and slightly hopeful. Rex felt his heart melt. Before he even knew was he was doing, his lips were already pressed passionately against Noah's.
Noah felt energy shoot through his veins as Rex began fiercely kissing him. The Evo boy's lips were moving rapidly, almost desperately, as if this was his one and only shot. One of Noah's hands moved to the back of Rex's head, pressing him closer. Begging for more. His lips parted and Rex's tongue moved in immediately and began exploring his mouth and twining with his own tongue. Rex's arm tightened around him, pressing him closer. Noah broke the kiss with a yelp as the forceful act caused his cut to start hurting again.
Rex quickly pulled back, guilt flooding his system. "S-Sorry..." He murmured sheepishly. "Guess I got carried away..." 'Idiot!' He silently scolded himself. "Here...let's move you over a little..." He carefully moved Noah until they were both leaning against a large tree. Noah sat up as straight as he could before slumping against the smooth bark.
Noah's heart was still pounding from the sheer electricity of that kiss. He wanted more (though probably with a little less vigor). He leaned over and planted a quick kiss on Rex's cheek. Rex turned and stared at him. Noah gazed back, his eyes giving Rex a silent invitation.
"C-Can I...?" Rex started before trailing off.
Noah nodded timidly. "M-Maybe not so rough..."
Rex beamed as Noah's cuteness threatened to overwhelm him. "Don't worry..." He crooned, leaning close once more. "I'll be gentle..." He leaned in and brushed his lips against Noah's soft, warm ones. He inhaled Noah's vanilla/lemon scent. His gloved hands moved across Noah's skin like butterflies, stroking and caressing. His hand brushed Noah's chest and, once again, Noah froze and let out an endearing whine. Rex moved back slightly. 'I wonder...' He moved down and experimentally nuzzled Noah's chest.
"Ah...R-Rex..." Noah breathed as another wave of heat overcame him. 'So warm...'
Rex's heart did a back flip at the way Noah said his name. 'Wow...' He paused for a moment, listening to the sound of Noah's heart beating, before kissing him on the chest.
'Oh...' Noah grew stiff and began to moan with delight. As Rex kissed him, he faintly wondered, 'Is this...what love feels like?' Rex moved his head back up and pulled Noah into a hug. Noah snuggled up against him and closed his eyes. 'Yeah...I think it is...'
DON'T FLAME! The bunnies *snicker* made me write this! They were threatening me with a mallet *snort* and really big teeth... Seriously though, Noex is pretty much canon! Did you notice that in this episode, when Clair answered the door, Rex put his arm around Noah and hugged him (for a split second before Noah pushed him off)? If not, GO BACK AND LOOK! I think it's still on Youtube. If it gets deleted from there, it'll be on the Cartoon Network site in a few days. Peace out! BUNNIES! ^_^
