LULU

"I'm sorry, love, you alright?" He asked and you tried so hard to tell him that you were but you shook your head, hardly getting any words out as he instantly wrapped his arms around you. He had always been affectionate and this time was no different but there was something comforting and warm about the cooks' arms. He wrapped you up in them, making you feel right at home. You really did feel at home in them. You buried your face against his chest as his hand gently cradled the back of your head, you felt the tears well up in your eyes but you were safe, warm, and Sanji only held you tighter as he placed a kiss atop your head.

"Shh, it's alright now, mon amour." He whispered. "I've got you."

Luffy

Most people assumed that Luffy didn't have any clue about emotions or other people but they'd be wrong. He knew his crew like he knew himself and he was very well aware of how they all were feeling. He knew when Zoro was happy but didn't show it how most people did, he knew when Sanji was truly angry, he knew when Robin was excited about a new discovery, Nami was excited about treasure, Usopp when he was truly afraid, Franky when he was happy...

He knew his crew and he knew something was off with you the moment he saw you on the figure head by yourself. Typically that was his spot, but Luffy didn't mind sharing it with you, he climbed up and sat down beside you. He wasn't loud, no, Luffy did know when to be quiet and when words were needed.

"You need a hug?" He asked softly, causing you to turn to look at your captain. You'd hardly noticed him as you were lost in your own thoughts. Your cheeks were stained with tears and he reached over and gently brushed his thumb under them as you nodded. It was only an instant later that the reckless and loud captain with the straw hat was pulling you into his arms. He held you tight, resting his chin on your head as he pulled you into his lap. You snuggled against him, burying your face against his neck.

Luffy smiled as he rested his chin on top of your head, staring out at the endless sea. "See, you'll be alright, hm? You've got all of us, always."

And that was his promise and he would keep it.

Zoro

The swordsman had known something was off with you when you didn't come and watch him train in the morning. That was typically one of the first things you did even before breakfast, you came and watched him, then he noticed you had hardly talked to anyone during breakfast and then you had retreated to somewhere deep in the ship.

He sighed.

"Tch. Troublesome." He muttered but he went to find you anyway. His observation haki wasn't needed. He knew where you'd be. You'd be in the aquarium bar. He walked into the room to find you on the beach, staring at the fish, a book lay opened on your lap but you weren't reading it.

"You okay?" His voice was gruff as he walked over to you. He didn't ask permission as he picked you up with ease and sat back down with you in his lap. You let out a startled noise but he didn't pay any mind as he made himself comfortable on the bench. He sighed as he tucked you against him. He was warm, safe, home. You buried your face against his neck as you wrapped your arms around him. He was broad but he was warm.

"No." You muttered as he held you tighter and he closed his eye, resting his cheek against your temple. His hug giving you everything you didn't realize you needed.

"Figured, you're alright now. I'm here."

Ace

Ace had dealt with many things in his life and he was good at several of them, bad at several of them too, but he knew he gave good hugs. You had told him that plenty of times and now, he was going to give you the best hug of your life. Marco had told him that the mission had been a rough mission and you had gone straight to your cabin.

Ace wouldn't be having that. He may hate himself but he didn't need you hating yourself too. He knocked on your door.

"Sweetheart?" He knocked and he heard your muffled 'come in' and he opened the door. His face softened at the sight of you sitting wrapped in a blanket on your bed.

"C'mere." Ace held his arms out and you got up, walking right into them. Ace had become home to you and you were home to him. There was no place he or you would rather be than in each other's arms. He felt your body relax as his warmth spread into you. It was something that he did without realizing it but it always relaxed you. He hummed, resting his chin on top of your head as his arms tightened around you.

"You can let it out." He whispered as he held you tighter, hand rubbing your back as he felt you practically melt into him. He smiled softly, pressing a kiss to your hair. "I'm not going anywhere. Ever." He promised as he held you tighter, the hug comforting both him and you.

The whole debacle began one day as Leona was walking you to your class. It was your routine; he walks with you, and you give him a kiss in return. A fair exchange, if you ask him. But this time was different. As you turned away from the peck, you wiped your mouth on your sleeve. You didn't even wait for him to walk away before doing it. It instantly soured his mood.

Leona grabbed your sleeve, tugging you gently back towards him. His free hand landed on your waist as he pulled you in, "Hey." He muttered out, brows furrowed in clear annoyance. The beastman bent down, pressing a deeper kiss to your lips. "Don't wipe this one off, Idiot." It was pretty surprising, coming from a man who really couldn't care less about PDA. Sure, showing you off was fun, but he had seen other couples quickly turn tacky due to their cheesy lack of care for their environment.

"Why not?" You teased, eyes crinkling with a smug smirk, "It's just a kiss." You stated simply, patting his chest with your hand. You knew what you were doing, and he knew that. You just wanted to mess with him.

"'Cause." He retorted, clearly aware of your antics. He let go of your sleeve to cup the back of your neck, "I'm your boyfriend. You shouldn't have to wipe off my kisses." "Okay, okay." You relented, "It was a prank, but if it bugs you then I'll stop." You finally separated from him, turning your back to return to class, "See you after?" "Yeah."

i think we're gonna see a trend here.

vil is also not having it.

but unlike leona, he's not gonna confront you about it. he knows your shenanigans and can be equally as petty

You and Vil had been at a standstill for almost a week. It had started when you had wiped his kiss off. He gave you no response. You did it again. Still, no response. It had gotten to the point where he had decided that if you would wipe them off, he just wouldn't bother. What you had meant to be a silly prank had turned into quite a big problem for you. "Vil..." You pleaded, wrapping your arms around his shoulders from behind. He was seated in the Pomfiore lounge, reading an article on his phone, "Come on.... just one...?" The blond shook his head, "No. I refuse to entertain such games with you." He crossed one leg over the other, tone dangerously neutral. It was amusing the first time you did it, and now your prank was just plain annoying. "You have to admit, it was a little funny." You whispered, "I laughed pretty hard." You leaned further forward, face nestled in the crook of his neck. "Well, I did not." He argued, "There are other ways to get a rise out of me without disregarding my love for you." He reached up with one hand to pat your head, "Try again tomorrow. I might be feeling more generous." "Aw, man....."

d1 drama queen (king?)

he is not having it INSTANTLY.

like you don't even get to reach up to wipe it off.

The second your hand reaches to touch your lips, you feel a grip on your shoulder. "Don't do that." Malleus pouted. Call it whatever you'd like, but he had a bad feeling about what you'd try to do next. "But I'm not doing anything." You batted your eyes innocently, "I'm just scratching an itch." "You weren't trying to wipe off my kiss?" He interrogated. Malleus knew you all too well. You had a habit of trying to sow chaos in times like this. No matter how much he tried to prevent it, you'd find a way. "Nu-uh." You shook your head, "I'd never do such a thing." "Then what were you doing?" "..." "Well?" Arms crossed, Malleus glared at you with disapproval, "Answer me." "wiping off your kiss..." "Come here, then." He stepped forward, quickly getting into your personal space, "I'll give you enough to wipe off, and then some." You dug your own grave.

taglist: @ieatkidscontrollers @sunnybwby @strawberryshortcake143 @ancientfragment to be added, just reply to this post!

his alarms went off as soon as he noticed you were about to get out of bed, he hadn't even finished opening his eyes properly and you were already about to leave? no! his hands quickly circled your waist, pulling you back against him, you fell onto the mattress with a gasp of surprise, feeling your boyfriend's arms tightening to prevent you from being able to pull away again.

“Idia? I have to go to class,” you reminded him trying to rid yourself of his grip once more. you weren't even supposed to be there, you weren't sure what the rules were about staying the night in the room of other students, but without a doubt it couldn't be anything good. especially if that student was your boyfriend… but Idia had an incredible way of manipulating you and well, how could you resist when he had your favorite snacks in his room and had the exact couch you'd mentioned you needed for your gaming sessions?

“five minutes. it's too bright outside, and there are too many NPCs that aren't worth your time.” you huffed when he pulled you close again, completely ignoring your words. however, it was enough to feel the way he buried his face in the curve of your neck to make you melt. Idia rarely allowed himself to be just as clingy as in those moments, he liked feeling you close, yet sometimes he was afraid of invading your personal space too much.

your mind was torn between being a responsible person and getting out of bed at that moment with the intention of returning to your own room and arriving on time for class… or staying a few more minutes, even the rest of the day, was there any way to justify a class absence due to your boyfriend's need for affection? probably not.

it wasn't until you felt Idia’s lips slide from your jaw to your cheek that you gave up. you let out a sound of frustration at your own lack of self-control and shifted under the covers so you could turn and look at his still sleepy face. “only five more minutes,” you warned before sinking into his arms again.

a wide smile spread across his face, revealing his sharp teeth, as he tightened his arms around you. and just as he had predicted: in the end it hadn't been only five minutes.

The warmth of your two bodies pressed together, the rhythm of your heartbeat helping to slow his down, and your cute little snores.

Nowadays, whenever you don’t cuddle up to him at night, he assumes you’re upset or he’s done something wrong.

Leona

Lions naturally sleep in piles, so it wouldn’t be far off for lion beastfolk to fall asleep cuddling one another.

In fact, it was Leona who rolled over on top of you one day, then you just snuggled in, and it’s been that way ever since.

Leona does notice after a while that you prefer holding onto him and cuddling, rather than him sleeping on top of you, so he pays more attention.

He’ll pull you in rather than rolling onto you, or just placing you on top of him, he’ll just wrap an arm around your waist and let you do what you want.

Once Leona gets used to you cuddling him, he’s going to expect cuddles every night, so you should warn him in advance before you get in bed.

If not, he’s just gonna snuggle up to you, and pull you close like he always does.

Azul

Like Riddle, Azul finds it unacceptable when you suddenly get into his personal space at first. But unlike Riddle, he immediately takes it as a sign that you’re comfortable with him.

He also goes stiff the first few times you roll on top of him, or squeeze him tight in your sleep. Not because he’s uncomfortable, but because he doesn’t want to disturb you.

It means so much to him that you’re comfortable enough to be so close to him while being in your most vulnerable state, and he doesn’t want to ruin anything.

Azul slowly starts to get used to it, and you notice that he’ll cling onto you too, though it hard to tell if it because he loves you so much, or it’s just instinct from being an octomer.

Either way, you two become so used to each other’s body heat, that whenever you’re not near each other, it’s freezing.

Jamil

Jamil finds it odd at first, but takes it as a sign of trust and show of further your relationship, and just cuddles you back after a while.

It does get hot in Scarabia, so sometimes he’ll slide you off without waking you up somehow, so you’ll open your eyes the next morning and notice you’re separated.

When Jamil doesn’t end up sliding you off, he’ll wrap an arm around you tightly in an almost vice grip, as if someone was going to steal you.

You’re the first person he’s ever shared his heart with, and he wants to be the only one, so if cuddling makes you happy, so be it, it makes him happy too.

If you really are bothered by getting slid off sometimes, he’ll compromise by holding your hand, so you won’t be completely apart.

Vil

Vil almost thought you had lost your mind the first time you snuggle your way into his personal space. Why you go and ruin his beauty sleep?? You know the oils from your face are gonna-…

“Wait, couples actually do this outside of tv…”, he thinks as he looks down at your peaceful face.

It takes a while for Vil to get used to, but the number one rule is that you CANNOT press your cheek against his.

Even if he has you on the same impeccable skincare routine as his, he doesn’t want to risk any drool, he’d rather you drool on his pajamas top if either of you can help it.

Eventually, Vil will welcome your cuddles with open arms, and even be excited for them as they’ll start being his most favorite part of the day.

Idia

Idia audibly gasps the first time, and probably the next couple time you wrap your arms around him in your sleep. He doesn’t even think he’s worthy of being your ‘snuggle buddy’.

He unironically calls the two of you that now ever since he got used to you cuddling him, and he thinks of it as some kind of honor.

Idia already treats your hugs as some kind of power up, but you cuddling him in bed at night like he’s some romance manga protagonist? He treats it as a SSR legendary reward you can only earn at the highest possible level.

You better believe he’s never letting you go, you’re his ‘snuggle buddy’ now, no matter how cringe that sounds to you and him.

Since Idia spends so much time in his room, and you hang out there a lot, he won’t initiate it himself, but he’ll start subtly asking for cuddles all the time.

He’ll want you to snuggle up to him while he’s playing on his console, he’ll want you on his lap when he’s sitting his gaming chair, and he’ll want you to lay on top of him while you’re watching anime together.

You of course don’t mind at all, and you two become almost inseparable in the comfort of Idia’s room.

Malleus

Malleus thinks you rolling on top of him at night and hug him tight as just another one of your human customs, so he welcomes the gesture with open arms.

He loves getting to know you better and learning about the strange things humans do, so after a few nights of this, he’ll ask you directly why you cuddle him so tightly at night.

When you explain it’s a gesture of love and trust, Malleus is overjoyed that his child of man feels so close to him.

He quickly begins to cuddle you at night as well to show how much he loves and trust you back, he even curls around you slightly as if you’re a hoard of treasure, which to him, you are.

Malleus loves cuddling so much to the point where he’ll start doing it in public, he won’t care, and it’s not like anyone’s going to tell him to stop besides his more eccentric guard.

Whether you do or don’t like it, you’ll have to explain what PDA is, why other people could be uncomfortable by it, and whether or not you’re comfortable with it.

You were attending one of the unbirthday parties that were hosted in heartslabyul, and after that you had to go run some errands and finish the little work you had on you.

So with the few minutes you had left, riddle was walking with you alone through the rose maze, holding your hand in his as he smiled listening to you, he was so cute like this..a soft smile gracing his pretty face, looking at you like you’re his whole world. it almost made you wanna ditch everything and just stay with him, but you were more mature than that..it’s already late in the evening.

“I’ll have to leave now, rido! I’ll visit tomorrow with ace deuce, so I’ll see you then.”

“I’d prefer it if you stayed longer, but as you wish, my love.”

words cannot describe how you just wanted to kiss him and bite him—but you just leaned over and pressed a small kiss on his cheek, that you didn’t think much of. You completely forgot that you wore lipstick, and he didn’t even notice.

Eventually after you’ve left, he came out the maze and went to sit at his place, the moment he walked in and was seen by ace and cater, ace immediately laughed while cater looked shocked..but with that grin he usually had.

Riddle looked at them confused when he saw them suddenly start laughing when he came, What was with them? Have they gone mad? Riddle didn’t do anything ..

“Woah rids!!! That’s so brave of you to come out like that~ you two are tots adorable!”

“Wowww, housewarden! I didn’t think you’re a show off guy!”

Riddle looked at them confused and , even more annoyed. What are they talking about?? He really doesn’t get it.. ‘you two’? Did you do something in the rose maze while he wasn’t aware? But you didn’t play with his hair like usual, so it wasn’t messed up, you two didn’t even kiss like usual , so he by all means didn’t have anything on his lips or anything wrong with his appearance..so what’s brave and ‘show off’ about him?

“What are you two talking about..? I don’t recall having anything in my appearance that would make a big deal.”

A tired sigh was heard, as Trey was standing on the side . He already saw riddle when he came out, and he knew riddle would never go out with that..he knew it was an accident.

“Don’t worry about them, riddle. Just..you might wanna check your face, that’s all.”

Riddle saw cater shove his phone in his hand, camera app already opened giving him a mirror, and when he saw..

It was..there was..a kiss mark on his cheek. He gasped as he almost dropped caters phone.

“W-WHAT IS THAT?! THAT IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE!! Give me a tissue this instant!”

He yelled, although the flush on his face was saying otherwise , as ace kept teasing him.

God..you really just keep making him flustered, even when you’re not around.

He really won’t live this down for a while now..

After spending most of the day at leonas room, you had to take your leave to tend to your own matters, despite him asking demanding you to stay with him, because seriously, why did you even need to go? Just do whatever you wanna do later and just hang with him.

But as tempting as that sounds, you couldn’t have the luxury of staying or you won’t be hearing the end of it from Crowley, not that Leona would deal with it.

“Not really, I’ve got to go. I’ll see you tomorrow morning though!”

You said as you stood up from his bed, leaning down to press a small and thick kiss on the exposed part of his forehead. Eventually you left, and that’s when it all happened..

Leona didn’t really bother to do anything else, so he closed his eyes to take a nap. He heard the door open but he knew it wasn’t you because you just left, so he figured it was ruggie. No one else would have just walked in casually.

However..that laughed ruggie let out annoyed him a bit..he could tell it was targeted at him, he opened an eye as saw ruggie looking back at him with that smug and knowing look.

“The hell are you laughing at?”

“Oh, nothing Leona San! I just didn’t think you’d be that type of guy..shishishishh”

Leona furrowed his brows, that type of guy? The hell did he mean? The more Leona grew confused, the more he felt annoying..sitting up and glaring at ruggie, he spoke once more,

“You gonna spit it out or what? I don’t have all day.”

“Sorry, boss~ here! You could borrow my mirror!”

Ruggie said with a shiteating grin as he gave Leona his small mirror , Leona looked at his face, there was..nothing, tf?? He was about to turn to ruggie to get him out, till he noticed the lipstick. On his forehead. That small bit that was exposed.

Sevens..did you seriously have no where better to leave it on? He let out a big sigh as he shoved the mirror at ruggie hand and tried to wipe the lipstick and immediately slumping back, not bothering to check if it’s gone.

“Y’know it’s still there, right? What a cheesy guy—“

“Get the hell out ruggie.”

You came over to Octavinelle, more specifically azuls office for a small while. You had some free time on your hand, and what better way to spend it than to go and annoy your pretty boyfriend for a small bit? However, just as you were about to leave , giving him time to finish his own work, you leaned closer and placed a small kiss on the edge of his lips,

“Then, I’ll take my leave now. See ya tomorrow Azul?”

“Yes, I’ll see you tomorrow, my pearl.”

With that you left, and in the same time Jade walked in the same time.

“Azul, I believe that—..oho? Azul, i didn’t expect this type of thing from you.”

“Jade? Whatever are you talking about?”

Azul looked up at him, what thing? He would know that Jade wasn’t talking about him doing anything shady, because Jade was just as bad as him.

Jade noticing that Azul didn’t seem to pick up on what he meant, or, notice the lipstick for that matter, merely gave him one of his eerie smiles as he placed whatever paper he had brought for him.

“Nothing the matter. Although, you may want to take a look on the mirror. It quite suits your appearance.”

Seeing that smile, he already knew something was up, and he already knew that whatever was up, was something he clearly won’t be hearing the end of anytime soon.

He just..really didn’t expect it y to be a lipstick smudged near his lips. Sevens..he really, really won’t be hearing the end of it..

Kalim being an airhead was one thing, and it seemed to rub on you when you were around him .

This time, Kalim was the one who had to leave to get his own work done, you’d be lying if you said that you didn’t feel bummed out because when you finally didn’t have anything, he did..but it’s fine ..

“It’s okay, cutie! I’ll try to finish faster, jamils gonna help me anyway!”

You nodded with a sigh as you hugged him back when he gave a tight hug, placing a quick kiss on his jaw as you waved him off goodbye. Now then..what are you up to do?

Kalim, on the other hand, walked through the hallway with a happy hum after hanging out with you, he noticed some stares on his way, but it wasn’t really unusual, so he didn’t pay them annnyyyyyyy mind!

When he reached the library, he waved excitedly at jamil ,

“Heyyy , jamil ! You’re already here!”

“Of course I am. Could you— wait..”

Kalim looked at him confused with that usual smile that quickly flew away when jamil got a grip on him, holding his chin as he shoved his head to the other side .

“Did—DID YOU WALK ALL THE WAY WITH THAT?!”

“Huh?? With what?”

Kalim looked at jamil confused and caught off guard with his he suddenly switched up, what was he talking about? Kalim really didn’t understand..

“Whatever you do with [name], stays where it is. You can’t walk around having evidence on you, do you know how shameful it is?”

Kalim blinked, whatever you two do..? What did you two did? Thinking as hard as his brain allowed him, let’s see..you two hung out..played games..then chatted..then he had to leave , and hugged you, then..you kissed him..that’s it! Wait, was it about the kiss…?! How did jamil know?!

“..?! How’d you know they kissed me?! Are you a mind reader?!”

“that’s not what mind reading means. Look at your jaw, you have an obvious lipstick stain. You’ll be better off to clean it.”

Jamil sighed heavily. Seriously..he has to babysit two idiots (sorry..)

Look, he found out later. After you placed a chaste kiss on him, a small smudge seemed to catch on his cheek, but you didn’t pick up on it , and somehow, neither did he despite the time he picked up a mirror throughout the day.

He was talking to epel, something about his behaviour..

“I’d also expect you to keep pomefiore reputation intact, every participant counts. Do you understand?”

“..yes, vil-san.”

“Good.”

Epel looked at him once more, as if he was about to speak, but hesitated, and vil waited for him to get the words out.

“What is it?”

“..uh..”

Epel looked a bit uncomfortable, as if something was bothering him (it is) vil raised an eyebrow,

“Speak up, I’m listening.”

“Your um..cheek. It has a little kiss on it..”

Vil blinked for a moment, a kiss? He just checked his mirror , how did he even miss it..?! Or was epel pulling a prank? He picked up his mirror and looked, and once he turned his face slightly to the side, he saw it..it was faint, really.

Seems your lipstick wasn’t the strongest out there, huh..he let out a sigh, now..how did that happen, and in front of no other than epel? Alas, he still tried to act like he wasn’t embarrassed or anything.

“I see. Thank you for letting me know, epel. You can go now. Go. You can leave.”

Epel wasn’t an idiot, he clearly could tell that tone .. so he quickly left , just as you were walking in the room, when you passed epel, he glared at you mumbling something. What’s up with that prissy thing now..??!

Walking in the room, you were immediately met by his glare . You fought the urge to just turn around and leave but he bet you to it..

“Took your sweet time coming here, now?”

“what do you mean..”

“Would you explain this?”

He said angrily as he pointed to his cheek, and you saw the lipstick, lol..it really suited him, man. You’d do that shit again no doubt .

“Ah..sorry, accidents , am I right?”

You said , trying to lighten the mood a little, but it clearly didn’t work ..

“Accidents, hm? Well. It’d only be fair if you were to have a little accident too. Sit down.”

Well you’d be a fool to pass that on!!! You’d even pay to be all marked up with lipstick by vil schoenheit!

It was one of those few times where Idia left his room, wow. Yay. He went to Sam’s shop, his plan was simple. Go to the store. Get snacks and candy for him and his s/o. Get back to his room. Just that. He had no plans to talk to anyone! And thankfully, it was late at night so it’s mostly empty.

“Idia senpai?”

He yelped as he looked back at the noise —ah..silver-shi..jeez. He had to be all mysterious and cool like that, how did he not hear his step.

“Ah..silver..”

“What are you doing here? It’s way past curfew.”

(IKNOW. It’s that vignette. I just like it.)

Idia sighed as he looked at the other side.

“Just a quick side quest to Sam’s.”

“Oh, i see. You better head—..oh.”

Silver suddenly looked surprised when the wing caught up and slightly waved idias hair. What, was he suddenly thinking idia was sooo pretty? Wheheh..right..

“What’s that? Aren’t you gonna like, finish your sentence?”

“My apologies. I was just caught off guard. I didn’t know you had some lipstick on your forehead. Your hair covers it well.”

He laughed, hah. Of course he’s caught off guard! How amazing is that?! Ah..idia managed to make a ssr rarity rated character surprised just by having a kiss mark on his—

..wait. Wut.

“…lipstick..?!”

WHAT THE HELL. SO HE WASNT IMPRESSED BY IDIA AND , HE JUST EMBARRASSED HIMSELF FURTHER.!! Sevens..

“wait! Idia senpai—!”

Silver couldn’t finish his sentence when idia quickly turned around and ran surprisingly fast for someone like him, having his hood to cover his hair as its end turn pink.

-

Back in his room, he didn’t bother doing anything or getting anything!!! You or ortho can grab it!!

Slamming face first into his bed , his cries were heard by his little brother floating to him .

“Brother?! What’s wrong?”

“i CANT step a foot outside anymore!”

“What happened??”

“It’s over. This is the part where i die. I’ll be better off as an npc.”

“..what happened?”

“I embarrassed myself..my social score is minus zero. In front of silver-shi too..”

“What social scores are you talking about?”

“THANKS A LOT, ORTHO.”

Malleus wasn’t usually seen by others outside his dorm unless it was in a joint class , or something.

So, when you told him you needed to go your way, promising to visit diasomnia later , he nodded.

“Ah, i see. I’ll see you soon, beloved.”

You nodded, placing a small kiss on his lower cheek , and going your way.

The walk back to his dorm was peaceful, he was content, clear sky, empty hallways , the whether was pleasant . Nothing quite unusual.

And as he walked past a few students, they suddenly went quiet. Malleus noticed that, but he also knew that many people did that around him. So he paid no great mind to it.

However, when he stepped a foot into diasomnia’s lounge , he was met by Lilia who looked up at him, about to greet him but seemingly caught off guard.

“Oho? You seem to be in a good mood tonight.”

“Am i?”

“Certainly! You’re very radiant, it aren’t you?”

“..Lilia, is there something you wish to tell me?”

“Nothing really. It’s already there, you might wanna check out your cheeks though. Kheheh!”

Malleus’ fingers instinctively went to rub his cheeks, glancing at his fingers afterward, seeing a faint colour on them. He was silent for a moment ,

“Ah.”

“Yes?”

He slowly remembered, just before you two parted ways you kissed him. He didn’t really notice your lipstick, not that he’d stop you even if he did.

He was much more focused on the fact that you kissed more than anything else in the world.

How unfortunate..

Lilias laugh was what cut him off of his thoughts, looking back at him ,

“It is hardly that amusing.”

“Oh, of course! Walking around with your sweethearts print is not amusing at all. Kheheh.”

“…”

Maybe it is a little amusing, but, he wasn’t that panicked or embarrassed by it. He was oddly pleased by the thought of you leaving a small mark on him. Not because of the lipstick, but because the fact that it left evidence that someone dear to him was there.

So, i guess it’s worth it if he endures lilias teasing for a while.

a/n : my god this took so much longer than i thought. Expect some mistakes because I don’t feel like reading it all over, and please let me know about any mistakes to better myself. Thank you!
