" LOVE ME " || AyaThoma / Thomato

- 10 -

It was around 9 PM now, Thoma was walking to Ayato's room. While it was late at night, the hallways reminded him of something. It's the same hallway he sees every day while waking up, but he, for no reason, starts to reminisce about the past. This was the hallway he walked down when he first started permanently staying in the estate. It was also the same hallway he went down when he first went into his master's room.

He then knocked at the door at the end of the hallway. He waited for a few seconds, before he saw the door open, revealing a certain blue-haired man he's seen before multiple times. "Come in, Thoma"

Thoma came inside, and saw that everything was already neatly tidied. The pillows were all in place, and the TV was already on. Ayato gestured for the blonde to come sit on the bed next to him.

"Are you fine with horror movies, Thoma?" The bluenette asked. Thoma thought for a bit, before nodding his head. "Is it fine if I start to grab onto you though, My Lord? I get scared quite easily" He spoke, feeling a bit shy.

Ayato chuckled, and nodded. He started up the movie, which started pretty normally. It was actually not that bad for the first 10 or so minutes. But then, a jumpscare popped up, which spooked Thoma, while Ayato was unfazed.

From then on, jumpscares would become more frequent. They really scared Thoma. He was only wearing a hoodie and shorts, which made him feel exposed. The air that hit his skin also felt colder, sending shivers across his body.

Eventually, around 30 minutes in, Thoma decided that he has had enough. Without warning, he suddenly hugged the boy next to him. It was quite an odd position, and Thoma would much rather sit on the other's lap.

Though, what he didn't expect was that Ayato grabbed onto him, again, placing the blonde down on his lap, just as he did earlier today. This time, it wasn't so awkward, yet Thoma still felt flustered, and hid his face in the bluenette's neck.

They, or at least, Ayato, continued watching the movie in this position, completely unbothered by all the not-so-family-friendly scenes. Meanwhile, Thoma, despite not being able to see anything, frequently gets spooked by even the slightest sounds. He flinched every time there was a disturbing sound.

Though, whenever the movie transitions into a calm scene, Ayato would whisper into the blonde's ear. They were only a few words, just some sweet nothings, but it drove Thoma crazy. Things like, "You're really brave, Thoma", or "It's cute when you're like this" 

Eventually, the movie ended, and the two laid down. Ayato's bed was near a window, it had a beautiful view of the night sky that illuminated the room. As expected, it was big enough for the both of them. Thoma started to wonder what it would be like to have a bed this big all to yourself.

But, Thoma was too tired to think about that. He yawned softly, murmuring a soft "good night" as he closed his eyes. There was only 1 blanket, but, Thoma decided that it was Ayato's, and he shouldn't use it.

But, his thoughts were silenced as he felt the blanket being put on top of him. His eyes fluttered open, looking at the boy beside him. "My lord.. isn't this yours?" He yawned. Ayato replied with a chuckle at that question, "It's big enough for the both of us, Thoma, now, go to sleep"

Thoma nodded gently. "Goodnight Ayato.." He spoke. Ayato was shocked, normally, Thoma wouldn't call him that, but he smiled. His name sounded heavenly when Thoma said it. Perhaps it's because he doesn't normally say it? Maybe it's because the blonde is tired?

But, Ayato paid no mind, instead, he laid down again, slowly falling into the dreamland. 

The dream he had was a familiar one.. it's more of a memory than a dream.. huh, a chance to relive a memory, that shouldn't be so bad.
