"So me and Mahiru will be next, huh." Said the pianist, it was more of a question than a statement, with, of course, a clinging blonde on his side. The brunette nodded for confirmation.
"Oh, then, I think you should ask, Licht." Mahiru followed with a smile. Licht nodded, though it followed a hand swiping his blonde's hand from his cheek, whispering a not so nice tone, "Don't be too cocky, you stupid hedgehog." The blonde's response was more of a whine than an argument, mumbling 'you're so mean, Angel-chan...' as he reform back into his animal form, still cuddling onto his Eve. Still lost in his own petty fight with his pet.
"Is the Greed pair always like this, Shirota?" Asked the exasperated looking Misono, observing the little quarrel.
"Yeah... Let's just leave them be for now... A small break will do." Mahiru said. Whispering for Kuro to climb off, yet was ignored and climbed onto the Eve's shoulder. Mahiru didn't mind it much as he stood up and walked to the counter to give drinks to everyone while waiting for the Greed pair to finish.
Hearing Kuro say his usual drink, and everyone else's while Mahiru sighed. Mumbling a comeback in the lines of 'drink more healthier!' to the feline on his shoulder, yet he answered with a meow. While waiting, he looked up to see what everyone was doing. Misono was chatting to Tetsu, in the lines of their conversation, he could hear a faint 'That's amazing, Chibi' and got shouted for calling Misono that, whilst Lliy and Hugh is listening to them, seldom joining in the chat. Mikuni was talking— more like arguing with Jeje, which set off the hooded man. Coming back to the circle with a tray of drinks for everyone.
Seems like the Greed pair was done and was just drinking their juices. Licht looked up to Mahiru, who was scolding Kuro, softly though. Returning his attention to the game, he broke the comforting silence between the gang and continued the game.
"Truth or Dare, Mahiru?" asked the delusional angel. Mahiru, who was taken aback by the sudden words but smiled seeing Licht has his attention again, toke time to answer.
"Hmm, Truth. I mean, why not...?" Mahiru said, lifting his shoulders slightly, with Kuro, yawning. Face it. A question from the violent angel will be either utterly ridiculous or just simply weird. Well, at least that would be better than an outrageous dare out of nowhere. The pianist thought this over, when his eyes went to the adorable black cat. Grinning, when a light bulb popped on top of his head.
"Is Mr. Cat's fur soft?" Licht's eyes sparkled a little, and his sour face, soften. Mahiru flinched at his straightforwardness, not just that, the question itself was rather... odd to answer. The brunette thought this over, he never actually touched or stroked his feline partner with that kind intention. He thought, of course it would be... After Kuro showers, he's pretty sure his fur is more softer...
He looked down at his black cat, he seems to have fallen into a light sleep. Forgetting that the whole gang was here, absentmindedly, he reached out and stroked Kuro's fur, which was unexpectedly soft, softer than usual, he mused. Guess he showered...
Though his stroke was gentle, it woke up the drowsy feline from his nap. The black cat looked for his Eve's eyes to have gentleness, tenderly stroking him, which he didn't mind, at all. He gave his Eve a questioning look, also having a 'been-soothed-by-my-cuteness-eh?' look, but said nothing.
The brunette realized his cat has his eyes on him, having a smug-like expression, he huffed to his annoyance... and confirmation. For the first time. The others simply observed their actions, like they're talking telepathically, and nobody understands their words just by looking at them in the face, but them. Though someone broke the silent argument the Sloth pair was having, by a cough.
"Ahem! What, did this game suddenly became a staring contest?" The lavender-haired Eve suddenly interrupted in annoyance. Bringing back the Sloth pair to reality and that the whole gang is here, playing a game. Mahiru had a tint of pink in his cheeks, looking to the impatient boy, mumbling an apology. Kuro paid no mind to this and went back to his nap like usual, still being soothed by his Eve's gentle hand made him sunk deeper into sleep.
"Uh... yeah. I could at least say that Kuro's fur is soft, naturally." Mahiru answered. The shine in Licht's eyes came back, the question written all over his face. Mahiru chuckled at the self-proclaimed angel's look, like an open book. Mahiru held out Kuro gently and slowly, not wanting to wake the feline up. Giving permission to let Licht rub Kuro. For a while.
Licht looked at the kitty and tenderly toke him with the shining eyes that didn't waver. He gentle stroked it, whispering sweet words, and a certain pet getting jealous.
"Is Nii-san cuter than me, Lichtan?" The hedgehog whined at his side, pouted.
"You're a demon, so yes. Mr. Cat's cuter than you." He repeated his sentence. The spiky pet puffed out his cheeks.
"But Nii-san's a vampire too!" Hyde reasoned. "He's not the only cute pet here!" He added. Fine! Just cuddle with Nii-san... Hyde mused. Mahiru somehow read the spiky pet's thoughts. He sighed.
"Well, Licht. Truth or Dare?" Mahiru changed the subject. These two sure needs some pushing... he thought. Seems like that question caught the pianist attention.
"Dare." He said, almost boldly. Mahiru was a little taken aback because of how fast he answered, but recovered quickly. Straighting up and having a serious yet amused tone to his voice.
"I dare you to be honest with Hyde about his animal form... for about the next 3 rounds." A few people were a little surprised by a specific dare, especially coming from Mahiru. Licht gave him a glare before saying,
"Are you saying I was lying?" He sounded surprised and irritated. "Me? Lying?" He added, his voice cold. His eyebrows twitching in irritation. Kuro glanced at his Eve. How troublesome... If Angel-can decided to fight here... Ugh, what a pain... Kuro hopped out of Licht's grasp an landed on his Eve's left shoulder. Licht gasped a little because of the sudden distance and whined a little.
"No, no, no! I just said be honest..." Mahiru protested quickly. He knew this would irritate the pianist, but still went with it. Holding Kuro on his lap and started to pet him again. Licht still has his glare at him before glancing at his side. He looked reluctant to say something but not trusting his words to be voiced out, instead nodded his head silenlty. Although Hyde was annoyed, he was listening and so, he wanted to try his honesty.
"Lichtan, am I cute, at least?" He asked a little curious of what he would say. Licht toke a moment before slowly nodding, not trusting his voice, just say in denial. The hedgehog squeaked in delight, they might not see it but he has a wide grin on his little face. Mahiru has his bright grin on his lips, huffing in satisfaction. Kuro stared at his Eve's face for a moment. Did his Eve just... planned this...? Can't deal... Oh well, at least he fixed it... He mused, leaning into his Eve's touch. From the other's view, they can't see the tint of blush on Licht's face. He was sure, from his cat's view, there was a red shade of color on Licht's cheeks.
That's Mahiru Shirota for you.
Hey, was it bad? A heads up! When a people are playing, it will be focused on them! It rarely says any other people, referring to guys, whole gang, everybody, etc. I feel like I made OOC parts and it's shorter than the last chapter... Well, I have no time sulking over that! Hope you really enjoyed it! By the way, for those people who reviewed, my reply!

De hearts 26 - Ehehehe! Well, he was a cat... I would've wrote him hiding in a blanket buuut, I wanted him to be honest! And don't worry, now that you said it, Imma make him blush harder next time! Ehehehe!
