Nero's Pov

Dad had arranged another day for me to play with Credo and Kyrie. I was also going to sleep over because their parents wanted to return the favor for us dealing with them for a night without any warning.

I wasn't sure how I felt about another day around Kyrie again, after last time. I was nervous, but I also felt excited.

The day came, and dad took me over there. When we arrived, Kyrie greeted me in a slightly less embarrassing way, this time just awkwardly waving at me. We were standing sort of close, and dad pushed my head a little closer to hers. Her parents chuckled as we both pulled away with our faces red.

Nero: "Dad!"

Y/N: "Sorry, I tripped." I tried to hide my face and saw Kyrie doing the same. Dad left soon after thanking her parents for taking care of me. After he left, they told me Credo was at school at the time, but would be back in the afternoon. Kyrie took me to her room and closed the door.

Kyrie: "Your dad didn't trip. I saw him when he pushed you."

Nero: "I know. He likes to tease me about it."

Kyrie: "At least he's not against us seeing each other."

Nero: "I thought this stuff was only supposed to happen when we're older."

Kyrie: "I don't think it's a bad thing. Do... You think it is?"

Nero: "I don't know. It just feels weird."

Kyrie: "Yeah, I know." She moved closer to me. "Since Credo's not here, you can take the sleeve off your arm."

Nero: "You want me to?"

Kyrie: "Yes." I pulled it up.

Nero: "I miss it being normal." She held it.

Kyrie: "It's ok."

Nero: "No it's not. I have to hide it everywhere I go."

Kyrie: "I liked it when you wrapped your wing around me."

Nero: "You want me to again?"

Kyrie: "Please." She leaned on me. I summoned the larger arm with the wing on it. I wrapped it around her and she looked up at it.

Nero: "Why do you like it?"

Kyrie: "I like being so close." I went even redder.

Nero: "Do you want to play or just sit here?"

Kyrie: "I want to keep talking."

Nero: "About what?"

Kyrie: "I don't know." She took her head off my shoulder and looked at me. "We can just play like normal." I made the wing disappear.

Nero: "Ok." I was about to get up and get some toys out of my backpack. Before I did, she leaned her head close to me. I froze. We both knew where this was going, but I was too shy to push it. She started leaning in and I did too. I felt our lips touch. Then we pulled away. I felt my heart beating in my chest.

Kyrie: "Sorry. I..." We both looked at each other. We were both equally red.

Nero: "Um, I... It's ok." I smiled at her, trying to distract myself from what just happened. She smiled back at me.

Kyrie: "Do you... Want to again?"

Nero: "I-uh, sure." We kissed again, this time a little more confidently. This time, we took longer to pull apart.

Kyrie: "I guess... Does this mean we're..."

Nero: "I don't know."

Kyrie: "What do you even call it?"
