Yesterday was a ruckus one they paid for but it's history for Aloha. He woke up with a spring in his step and a hummed a beautiful tune getting dressed. He opened his little gift Army gave him (miraculously it didn't break) and inside revealed a wire pink sea glass necklace with a hibiscus and pearl hanging at its side. Aloha grazed his finger tips over the fine jewelry before putting it on and examines himself in the mirror. He wanted to look nice today..because well, he did kiss Army on the cheek and give him a certain look that might have made his feelings abundantly clear.
He didn't think it was safe to just call it a simple friendly gesture. No. Aloha wants to make it notable that he wants Army romantically. Today he's going to walk up to Army and ask him to be his boyfriend. One final look in the mirror and Aloha was off to find the lad in question. Everyone was mostly awake at this hour so he assumed Army would be in the lounge area talking with a few of their friends, but once he arrived, Army was no where in sight. He glanced left and right in hopes to sight him but he never did. Eventually, he decides to ask Prince who's enjoying some reading time with Laceless.
"Hey Prince..have you seen Army by chance?" Aloha asked as he takes a seat across from the lad and his partner. "Army? I have a while ago. He was in here shortly then left abruptly. I don't have a clue were he might of went."
Aloha rests his eyes in dejection not knowing either where his roommate might have gone. Prince wanders his gaze over to the pink lad who's seen fiddling with his new necklace. The younger king closes his book and solemnly spoke, "Is it important to find him?" Aloha raises his eyes slightly startled Prince is beginning a conversation. He's often been know to keep his thoughts to himself and only engage with those he's most closest too. So it's a surprise that he's talking with Aloha, someone he doesn't know all that well. "..there was something I needed to ask..actually tell him mostly." Aloha nervously chuckles not knowing whether or not to go into details. Prince seems to have his ears perked and eyes set on this matter."I wanted to tell—"
"Are you going to ask him out?" Prince interrupted with an eager glimmer to his eyes. Aloha didn't know how to respond except to just gap his mouth open in shock. Prince immediately apologized for his intrusion and lean back feeling ashamed. "...I was hoping, yes." Aloha muttered which lifted Princes spirits immediately. He giggles and boasted about how he knew those two had something for each other.
Aloha's never seen this side of Prince before, too him it's kind of funny that he's getting so excited over this.
But something stuck with him...Prince knew there was something going on?"Wait. What do you mean?"
Prince laughs thinking Aloha's joking but explains nevertheless. "When we first arrived here and I saw how close you two were; I assumed you guys were dating or something. But once I heard that you two were only friends..I thought 'no way' Army doesn't look at you like you're just friends.." Alohas clueless and wondered how Army looks at him. Does he not see it himself?
"How does he look at me?" Questions the pink lad with impatience.
Prince smiles fondly and explains,
"Whenever I walk past; I always see the way he looks at you..it's the same way Rider and Goggles look at each other.""Which is?"
"Admiration..there's love in his eyes whenever he looks too you." Aloha slowly chuckles until he feels his walls come crashing down. Has he been that blind? Has Army been looking at him that way this entire time? "I never noticed." Muttered Aloha as he fiddles with his necklace once more.
"He does it all the time whenever you're around. It's cute." Prince hummed as he turns to his partner and strokes his head gently."Prince..this just makes my task even more important; but the thing is..I don't know how to ask him out."
"Have you not asked anyone out before?" Prince knew Aloha was very popular with people and had numerous dates before, so he's just confused.
"I mean..no..I never actually committed to them. Army's different though. I want this so be meaningful and heartfelt. Breathtaking even!"
Prince agrees and explains that Laceless & him ended up together by 'accident' if you can call it that. The young king was crushing on the gardener for some time and after this intense battle that they won Prince joyously announced that he loves Laceless, and instead of a cold shoulder, the lad said it back with just as much passion. "We went out for a date later that day and well..I just asked him if he wanted to be my boyfriend. Years later we are still together." Prince smiles proudly and smothers his lover with kisses.
