XII A cozy indoor date XII

After what felt like a whole month of work both me and Robin are finally able to take a break for ourselves, but I still felt like something is wrong with Robin. She kept telling me that everything is fine but I've known them for a long time now, I can tell when something is bothering them; I want to comfort them about it, find out what's wrong, but I just don't know how to approach this, it's rare for Robin to start feeling emotions that are similar to the past. So I can only hope that talking to Alphonse at his place will help me figure something out, or at least try not to think about it.

Ava's pov

"Oh yeah, the epitome romance; a pile of snacks, a collection of blankets and pillows and a Wi-Fi password. You better be getting cosy because babe, tonight is gonna be maximum chillaximum...chill...chil-chillax, max chillax...?"

He's so cute when he tries to be smart with words, just enough to make me giggle. Today is an indoor date for Al and me. Since we both agreed to take everything slow, also means that we won't be doing anything fancy just yet or even rush each other into anything. To be honest, I think that indoor dates are so much better; you're in an environment where you both feel comfortable and there's nothing to fuss over about. Though I still find it sweet that he did all of this.

"Ok, that all sounded better in my head scratch that, focus on the snacks. Or me, you're more than welcome to focus on me. You my dear are in for a treat; we're going to forget all about all the BS you've been dealing with and we're just going to have the most self-indulgent night ever. When it comes to sleepover dates I'm the master, I think it might have something to do with my lost childhood and the fact that I never had those romanticised fun sleepovers with friends and junk, that that sounds heavier than what I meant it to, look what I'm saying is bring your cute ass over here and cuddle with me," he said to me.

"Okay Al," I said with a smile as I cuddled up to him.

"There we go, I missed you, I was ready to Netflix and chill but real talk, it's hard to take my eyes off of you."

"I don't know if words could describe how much I missed you too, so how about I show you instead."

After saying that we both closed the gap between ourselves by sharing a kiss. It's been a while since we last kissed, but Alphonse is still sweet as ever. And sadly after a small minute, we both pulled away from each other.

"Your kisses are the sweetest," he said to me with a smile.

"No, they aren't!"

I'm used to compliments but nothing like this. I feel my cheeks warming up even more as I turned my attention away from him while trying to hide my flustered face.

"Ya ha! I'm like an expert on sweet things, you can't deny it! If there's anyone who qualifies to determine your sweetness, is me," Alphonse said with a soft smile as he lifted my head back up to look at me. And within that moment we both shared another small and short sweet kiss.

"You know your face does this cute thing when I tease you, I can't get enough of it; it gets all red and your nose wrinkles in this very specific way and that only happens when you think 'wow Al is so great, I think I'm in love!' you know, whatever the voice in you're head sounds like."

"You're actually not too far off."

We both didn't say anything for a bit since we were too busy eating snacks and cuddling with each other. I sometimes wonder what life would have been like if we haven't met on that evening, on the hilltop while underneath the moonlight. I think that's something that I could never imagine happening.

"You are too damn cute and I'm too damn lucky," he said.

"I feel like I should be the lucky one," I responded to him.

"No no! I'm the lucky one. I mean maybe you're a little lucky to have me but you're the one who is the real catch; most people think they want me, but then they don't want to put up with my mess. You, on the other hand, your like the Alphonse whisperer, you keep me in check which is a good thing cause I'm almost as good at screwing things up as I am having sleepover dates."

As he said that I couldn't help but wonder if there were anyone else who was lucky to be with Alphonse, and there was another person; who were they? And where are they now? I couldn't help but to gaze up at Al with a strong urge building up in me.
