“Heh! Yeah dogs are the top of the list forever. They are the 0. Nothing could ever beat a dog in friend status! Unless the dog was named after alcohol. That dog would be the best of the best.” A pout stretched across his face then. “HIkarruuu let’s go adopt a dog and name it Whiskey!”

“We should get a dog and name it Whiskey?” Hikaru questioned a loud, and then he laughed, putting his fist to his mouth... That was a...

Genius idea.

He’s not Cipher’s friend…?

Hikaru felt his world turn black and white, the cigarette in this mouth hanging loosely against his lips.

He was replaced by… Tequilla. Of course, Tequilla was more beautiful–more knowledge than he was. Tequilla could comfort Cipher more than he ever could.

Tequilla… You stole Cipher from him. How could you?

He stared into the distance drunkenly, feeling… cold.

“I’m…” Hikaru lifted his hand to the cigarette to keep it from falling out.

His smile came at a surprise to her, she had never really seen it before, or at least this big. She could see how it beamed and how genuine it was. He was really happy and that made her happy. Last year when she stumbled into his castle during a battle with the Southern Isle’s, she had promised to stay with him for turning his castle to ice in order to protect herself. He never once smiled this big since she had met him, she was glad she stayed this long now.

Strangely, deep down, even if she wanted to escape, a part of her could never let her. She felt he was the only one who could truly understand her, even if they had fought a lot. But he still had that gentle side that he showed from side to side. Only one part of all of him that she came to care for.

Looking him in the eye, she smiled as he said her name, listening to him. Her heart pounded and her cheeks flushed hearing it all. 

Those three words, those three words her heart wanted to hear but never thought would come. 

“Karu…” she said his name but let it trail off, caught off guard. She snapped out of it suddenly. “I love you.” she said back to him, “I’ve loved you for a long time.”

His light green eyes lit up as Elsa said those little three words.

I. Love. You.

Was this a dream? It felt like a dream, but it couldn’t be. He was sure he wasn’t asleep because he remembered waking up this morning…

This is real.

One hundred percent real. Hikaru had never felt his heart swell with such emotion before. His chest soared and yet ached at the same-- and he felt like he needed to just scream or something to get the sudden explosion of energy he had out of his body, but he stayed still. His cheeks naturally turned a light shade of red and brighten his complexation.

Quietly, he searched Elsa’s face looking for anything besides a loving look, a joke or something-- but all he found was a gentle, sincere loving look.

After a heartbeat, he moved his hands and placed them delicately on Elsa’s face, brushing a stray blonde strand of hair away from her face with one of his claw like fingers.

Hikaru felt his heart flutter and his mouth stretch into a wide smile that kind of hurt his face a bit. The feeling of Elsa’s fingers cold to the touch wrapped around his hand that was so warm. Hikaru had no idea how she could even touch him with the dark red scales decorating his skin and the sharp black nails he sported. A beast like him doesn’t deserve such a wonderful, beautiful woman like Elsa, but somehow he lucked out. The circumstances weren’t exactly the best, and Elsa had many chances to escape but she stayed with him and his monstrous ways throughout the year. He has no idea how she has managed to put up with his rage, fire-breathing, and temperament of a five-year-old.

Hikaru chuckled weakly, and then let go of a deep sigh before dropping his gaze to the dull wooden floor. “Yeah… It makes me feel a little better.” He runs a hand through his jet-black hair, tussling it up in a frustrated manner before looking up again and staring at Leiko with sad green eyes.

     “ AW – ” He winced as the pair of ears were pretty much smacked into his face. He watched as the ears clattered on the ground in mild irritation but he was going to let that slide.

     “ Why not ? I mean, it’s not everyday you get to see a deadpanned rabbit and besides, little things like this adds onto the cuteness factor … I think. Or at least that’s what I’ve heard. ” He slipped his phone out slightly to send the said picture and with the tap of the screen, there it went. 

Hikaru was officially irritated and yet also flustered at the same time. His cheeks beginning to turn red with anger and embarrassment at the same time.

     THE heir simply gave a chuckle at his words. It sure was fun to be on the side that teased for once since he was often on the receiving end. It was a nice change of pace and besides, Hikaru’s reactions were amusing.

     “ If you hate me for what I did then why aren’t you taking the ears off ? You seem to be enjoying them to an extent. Maybe I’ll send the picture to Vincent. I’m sure he would admire how adorable you look. ”

“I AM taking the damn bunny ears off!” Hikaru retorted with a shouted and ripped the ears off his head and then threw them directly at Leone’s face.

“BESIDES, why the hell would you send the picture to Vince of all people?! How am I even adorable?” Adorable is just as bad as cute in his mind. He’s manly!

    “ AM I now ? No need to get so worked up. It’s only a small joke. ” A slight smile remained stretched across his lips despite the push. He swiftly snapped  a photo of him with his cell phone then quickly slipped it back in his pocket. Now it was time to retreat a few steps back, just in case.

    “They sure … ” Snort. “ Look cute on you. ” 

“YES!” --Hikaru tried to react to the cell phone and cover his face, but he knows that that wouldn’t even help that much. He is still identifiable, spelling him out to be Hikaru Madden with bunny ears on his head.

@incxnerated // response to ask

     HE briefly snickered since that deadpanned bunny sure brought visual hilarity. “ I don’t know. Perhaps you should take a look yourself. ” 

Hikaru sighed, taking the cigarette out of his mouth and putting the bud out onto the nearest thing next to him. Leone had snicked at him--briefly but snickered. Unlocking his phone, he went into the camera function and turned it into the selfie camera.

Then he stared at the depiction of himself wearing--bunny ears similar to a certain Looney Toons cartoon character.

Hikaru had been walking down the sidewalk with his face glued to his phone and a cigarette sticking out of the side of his mouth. His face seemed blank, staring at whatever social media account he felt like looking at that day.

It was dark out, and Hikaru had walked down this street sometimes to clear his head after finishing his baseball practice at the nearby private academy that only the rich and wealthy attended.

He typically wouldn’t wander down this street so late, but he didn’t want to be scolded for the call the school would be forced give to his aunt and mother tonight. Apparently, he had roughed up a sophomore too much on the team, and they went and cried to their father like a baby.

Hikaru was playing on his phone and smoking a cigarette when he felt something go on his head.

The young male looks up and takes the cigarette out of his mouth, looking a bit confused and then he turns around to see– Leone.

He deadpans.Deadpan Hikaru with bunny ears must be pretty hilarious.
