Rafael gave him a quick squeeze before letting go of him and starting to eat his food, humming softly.
"I am the darknesss-" "GET OFF THE COUNTER YOU'RE GONNA BREAK A LEG" // Vampire Romance // OxO // Closed!!
group
Arien sat down when Rafael pulled away, making himself some hot coco. He was addicted, he would admit, but the drama lately had distracted him from the sweet, sweet call of the sugary drink.
Rafael smiled a bit when he figured out what Arien was making, chuckling softly under his breath.
group
Arien looked over when he heard Rafael chuckle.
"What's so funny?" he asked, moving to sit down across from Rafael with his mug.
“It’s just been awhile since you made it some of that I almost forgot that you drank it. You still making it just as sweet as you are?” He asked with a small smile.
group
"Mm, still not sweet enough, then." Arien smiled in turn. "I'd much rather it'd be more like you than me."
He chuckled. “That was pretty smooth, good job.”
group
Arien laughed lightly.
"Why thank you, I do my best."
He smiled, continuing to eat his food.
group
Arien sipped at his drink, letting out a soft hum of content.
"This is nice," he said softly.
“It is, isn’t it?” He just hoped it would last. He didn’t want this whole relationship thing…jeez they hadn’t even really said that they were in a relationship. He just kind of assumed.
group
Arien had assumed they were in a relationship as well. He hummed softly, reaching over to lightly squeeze Rafael's hand.
"I'm so glad we finally did this."
He smiled, squeezing Arien’s hand. “Me too..”
group
Arien leaned forward, kissing Rafael's cheek lightly. He was so glad they'd finally opened up to each other, face to face.
“You know what this means don’t you?” He said, suddenly sounding very serious.
group
Arien was a bit surprised by the sudden change in tone.
"What..?"
“We’ll never be able to see your friends again because they were right.” He said, his serious facade cracking as he started laughing.
group
Arien let out a low groan, putting his head on the counter.
"They're never going to let me live this down," he mumbled. "They're going to be all over me being shy, I swear to god-"
“They really won’t ever let you live this down so um….good luck.” He said, gently patting Arien’s shoulder.
group
Arien mumbled something into the countertop, eyes closed as his face turned red in embarrassment.
"I'm literally going to be embarrassed by them for the rest of time…"
“Yep, good luck.” Rafael chuckled softly, resting his hand on Arien’s head.
group
"Hhhnnnnn…" Arien lifted his hand up to put on top of Rafael's. "If I have to deal with this, I want you to be around while my friends are laughing their asses off…"
“Well I’ll be around for a good while..” he said, his smile faltering just a bit.
group
Arien looked up.
"Yeah…" He saw the faulter, taking Rafael's hand in his. "A long, long time." He didn't want Rafael to have to think about that right now.
He nodded, squeezing Arien’s hand gently, offering him a weak smile.
group
Arien leaned forward, gently kissing Rafael.
"Is there anything you'd like to do?" He asked, distracting them both from their trains of thought.
“Wanna just snuggle and watch tv?” He asked, smiling a bit more. “I should probably also take my medication.”
group
"Sounds perfect to me." Arien stood, grabbing Rafael's medicine and offering it to him.
"Here," he said with a smile.
“Thanks.” He said, carefully taking it from Arien’s hands and downing the amount of medicine he needed for that day. He handed the bottle back to Arien once he was done.
group
Arien let out a hum.
"Welcome." He took the medicine, putting it away. He took Rafael's hand, pulling him towards the couch.
