It had been a few days since Larry had started staying in Steve's apartment. He was always coming to his jobs late, causing him to lose a few. He was sitting on the floor, deep in thought, and then he heard the voice he loved so much. "Hey Larry! You okay there?" Steve asked, closing and locking the door before walking over to sit next to Larry. "hm? Oh, yeah. Just...thinking" Larry replied, trying to think if leaning on Steve would be weird. "Well, I have a question for you" Steve said. Larry looked up at him. "So, since you have the nightshift today, would you want to go somewhere with me to get dinner or something?" Steve nervously asked as he sat crosslegged on the floor, playing with his hair somewhat. "I- I- Uhm" Larry stuttered and blushed. Did steve just ask him out on a date? "we don't have to" Steve smiled, awkwardly, as Larry tried to think of the right words. "n-no, going to get dinner sounds great" Larry said, watching the clouds face light up. "oh perfect! I know exactly what to do! Just leave this all to me" Steve said enthusiastically. Steve started to undo his ponytail, and was still completely oblivious to the way Larry stared when he put his hair down. Steve decided to just hug Larry and pull him on top of him. Larry blushed at the sudden affection towards him. "would it be too early to tell you I love you" Steve said, holding Larry's hand with one of his, the other hand holding Larry's face to his. "I love you too" Larry whispered just loud enough for Steve to hear. He pulled their faces together, kissing Larry. After a few moments, Steve broke the kiss, and just smiled there with his eyes closed. Larry's eyes were wide open, staring at the cloud. His face had turned a deep red, as his mind raced and his heart started beating faster. He felt a soft arm pull him tight, his sharp edges digging into the cloud. He was concerned he would hurt Steve, so he tried to shuffle into a position where he wouldn't be digging into the clouds body. It was somewhat uncomfortable, but he decided that it was fine. He decided to reach his hands forward to touch Steve's hair. He started to play with the clouds hair. It calmed Larry to run his fingers through the long fluffy hair. He decided he would be brave and just kiss Steve again, and he did. Steve kissed back, holding onto Larry. Larry decided once more he would be a bit more brave, sticking his tongue ever so slightly into the clouds mouth. His bravery was met by the clouds tongue, intertwining them. After at the very least a minute, Larry broke the kiss to catch his breath. "holy shit" Lary thought too himself. "I just made out with a dude".  He looked at Steve, who wwas laying on the floor blissfully closing his eyes and smiling widely.

"WHAT THE WHAT"

Larry heard the voice of gumball, sounding muffled. He glanced to the window in the apartment, only to see Darwin staring like he had just seen the most amazing thing ever,  and gumball looking confused.

"WATTERSON!!!!"

Larry yelled, making Steve open his eyes and looking at the window, seeing the watterson brothers. He slowly pushed Lary off of him and walked to the window, opening it and telling the boys to go inside the building. After a minute or two, the two boys knocked at the door, with the same expressions from the window.  "Boys" Steve said, sounding calm but also angry. "I'm sorry Mr small, but Gumball wanted to see where you lived and we both wanted to know what Larry does when he's not working". Larry walked over to them, trying to not scream at them. "Why were you guys kissing" Gumball said, and Larry sighing. "Because we're adults and we can do what we want" Larry said, putting his hands on his hips and looking angrily at the boys. "Does that mean you guys are in love" Darwin said, smiling wide eyed and looking at the two. There was a pause. "Yes" Larry heard Steve say, then feeling a hand pulling him closer. "Now go home before I tell principal brown about how you were spying on a teacher".  "Gladly" Gumball said, pulling his brother, who was still smiling and staring at the two men. Steve closed the door and chuckled. "sometimes those boys can really be a lot" he said, looking at Larry. "Tell me about it" Larry replied putting a hand on his forehead. "I imagine yyou know them?" Steve said walking over too his air mattresss, being one of the most comfortable things in the apartment. "The Wattersons make my job a living hell" Larry said blankly. Steve chuckled, moving towards Larry a bit. Larry leaned on him, holding onto his hair. "I'll take you out later" Steve whispered to Larry, holding him close.
