Plagued Love

7

Zeltron cuddled up against Carnelian a large smile on his face. This was the happiest he'd been in years. His arms wrapped around him in a tight, warm hug.

 Carnelian returns the tight hug, not wanting to let go any time soon. The thought of being held in his arms brings out his softest side, his cheeks staying pink as he looks over at Zeltron. 

He leans in and rests his head on his shoulder, wanting to know everything about him now. He takes a deep breath and his heartbeat quiets down, his body feeling calm near Zeltron's. 

Zeltron now has a pink tint running over his caramel skin. Having no need for his mask, already taken off, he sets it aside and cuddles against Carnelian shutting his eyes. Carnelian smiles softly as he watches Zeltron close his eyes and lean against him. He wraps his arms around him, feeling his body against his as he lays his head on his shoulder. His heart melts when he sees Zeltron's face, pink and relaxed. 

He wants to be with him all the time, for the butterflies to remain in his stomach when he's near him. He smiles softly and closes his eyes, wanting to stay like this forever. Zeltron clearly agreed with this as he refused to stop cuddling him, just yet. 

Carnelian's cheeks remain a bright shade of pink as he lays against Zeltron. He kisses his cheek before resting his head on his shoulder once more. He can't stop staring at Zeltron's face, his eyes are so mesmerizing and his features are beautiful to the point they take all of his breath away. His heart beats wildly in his chest with every thought of him, the feeling of Zeltron's warm body against him just makes it worse but better in a way. 

Zeltron looked up at him with a small smile and a dreamed expression on his face. He was deeply in love and he was happy to have met the elf. Carnelian looks at him and takes note of Zeltron's expression before leaning down and softly kissing his lips once again. The taste of his lips is still fresh in his mind, and he can't help but want to kiss Zeltron more. 

He brings his lips closer to his, but stops when their faces are just an inch apart. His cheeks feel hot to the touch as he smiles softly. "I know we met half a month ago but... I'm thinking of asking you something."  

He whispers softly, looking into his eyes. "What is it?" Zeltron asked as he tilted his head. 

He was naturally a curious man, which he couldn't help. He blushed at the distance, a soft smile still on his face. The smile on his face brings out a joyful expression of his own. He looks down at Zeltron's caramel face as he tries to think of how to word things properly. 

"I... I want to ask something... something important." He mumbles softly, feeling his heart race even more as he looks into his eyes. "I... I-I..." He trails off, unable to find the right words. He gulps loudly before taking a deep breath and closing his eyes for a moment. With a deep breath he says it. "Will you... be my boyfriend?" He whispers softly. 

Zeltron smiled and hugged him tightly burying his face into Carnelians chest "Of course I will...". 

Carnelian hugs him tightly and kisses his forehead, his chest rising and falling quickly with every breath. He smiles softly and looks around the living room, taking in the sight of Zeltron afterwards. 

It's official, they're a couple. His heart warms and his face stays a shade of pink even as he looks at Zeltron. He kisses his cheek again, blushing as he stares at Zeltron. Being with him makes his legs feel like they might give in but it's a good pain. A pain of happiness and love. He wants this feeling to never go away.
