Luigi startled as a hand swiped his shoulders and he turned to watch Boo stroll into the shelves, It wasn't often that Boo touched him. But these last few weeks had shown him just how much insanity was left inside of the ghostly King.
After admitting that he needed to learn more about Boo and that Boo would learn more about him…Well, there were times when he wasn't a hundred percent sure but was kind of sure that one side of Boo was flirting with him. Biting his lip Luigi tried to go back to the book he was reading, too aware now that Boo wasn't that far away. What was the man up to, there were several ways this could turn, and he wasn't sure which one he preferred.
The Talkative Boo, the quiet Boo, the regal Boo, and the flirtatious Boo, all of them his husband and he was utterly baffled at how to handle that level of insanity, it wasn't like he was a therapist for crying out loud just a plumber, one half of a hero duo of Mushroom Kingdom, and Knight of the Beanbean Kingdom.
Boo was back, leaning over him to see what he was looking at before flopping another book on top of it. It looked older, but the page it landed on was of a drawing of the Artifact that ran the Ghost Dimension. Was…Boo trusting him with this information now?
"What?" Boo chuckled as he sat down in the chair next to Luigi.
"You've been looking in all the wrong places, most of these are either obsolete or wrong, former kings have messed with things here and there. I've done my best to get as much of it together but there are plenty of things I don't know or can't find."
And how much of that was the truth? Boo himself had pointed out the book Luigi had been reading before he'd been so rudely interrupted.
"But why help me now? I mean you weren't too thrilled when you first realized I was hunting for information." Boo shrugged.
"I changed my mind." Clearly! Luigi almost jumped out of his skin when a giant hand reached out and yanked his chair closer to the King. A thumb ran over his bottom lip, looking into those haunting eyes he swallowed. He'd been so certain it would be a loveless marriage, certain that there was no way Boo could have any sort of feelings.
One side of him did, but the other saner part of him didn't so what did it mean? Lips pressed against his knuckles and Luigi found himself wondering if it would be bad to want this side to hang around more? He felt adored when Boo was like this even though he shouldn't. He should push this away because Boo had tricked him into this marriage and Luigi had thought that he would never fall for Boo.
Was he lying to himself? Had some part of him wanted Boo to pay him attention? Boo had been obsessed with beating him, scaring the living daylights out of him and now they were married. Luigi gasped as unexpected lips pressed against his, he felt heat creep up his face and down his neck. Boo was kissing him, they were kissing. Boo placed a hand on his hip, scooting him towards the end of his chair and the king's other hand was holding his still.
Luigi felt his sanity flee his mind and he kissed back, Boo lapped into his mouth and Luigi moaned at the feeling of that tongue exploring his mouth.
The library doors slammed open causing Luigi to jump about a thousand feet in the air and one of the ghostly guards burst into the room.
"My king, apologize for the interruption but your needed urgently." Luigi watched Boo go to follow his guard not without looking back with a smug look on his face before disappearing from the room. His heart was still beating a million miles and, he felt like he had a bad sunburn from how warm his face was.
Jesus, what had he been thinking? Making out with Boo like a teenager like that! They were not together because they wanted to be, and he wasn't about to let Boo play with him! There would be no love between them! He pressed his hands to his face, annoyed he'd allowed Boo to kiss him like that.
What happened to the innocent press of lips of their marriage and why was Boo acting like he was trying to court him now well after they'd gotten married? Surely the other was just…Blindsiding him or something from a bigger problem. Was Boo losing more of his sanity? Shit, was he losing more of his sanity? Was he going to be as insane as his husband someday?
