Not much just short lil stories. (Some Veneer X Kid Ritz)

Gecz time

Veneer POV

I woke up to the sound of something tapping on my window? Confused as the last I checked I live on the second floor of a duplex. Far from the ground.

Another bang and I jump at the sound. I get up and scratch at my crest, peeking out of the window, Ritz? 

"HEY VENEER! DOWN HERE!" He says. Waving his hands about. His hair dangles and sways as the wind blows while his beanie droops off the side of his head. 

I look down at him, confused and tired, making what is supposed to be a questioning look. I look over at the clock, it reads 12:37 A.M. I look back down at him, he's just standing there his usually calm demeanor now replaced with frantic and excited movements and facial expressions. I love him I do, but sometimes I wonder whats wrong with him. 

"What is so important that you had to wake me Ritz?" I ask, my tone coming off as bratty and annoyed. 

"Well I thought about you all night, and the I finally decided to drive over here" he stops and looks from side to side, i can see the nervousness in his eyes and how he is standing upright. His usual slouch nowhere to be found. Maybe thats what he was looking for. "Can I.. Can I come up there with you?" 

Im taken slightly aback by this, we've only been dating for maybe 4 months now, was it too early to say yes? I feel my crest start to stand up right and I realize that my body is responding to my new alert state. 

"Umm sure why not? Climb on up" I call down to him. Expecting him to start grabbing at the wall and making his way up. But he doesn't and at this I frown, my eyelashes slightly drooping. He just stares at me. His tail swaying ever so slowly, side to side. 

"Well come on!" 

"Uhh how exactly?" He gives me a small smile. And I laugh, assuming he's making a joke. He doesn't join me in my laughter like he usually would. 

"Climb up?! Now hurry before Velvet sees you!" I yell. Reminding him that Velvet has made it overtly clear that she isn't his biggest fan. Not since the couch. 

No one POV.

He looks at the rough brick wall, and runs towards it, jumps and grabs it, not making it more than two inches before he falls down towards the ground. 

Ritz POV

Well that obviously isn't going to work, but I came here super late and I don't feel like waking up my roommate to let me back into the apartment, so I try again. I fall on my tail and partially my ass and give a small yelp in response. Veneer apparently hears this and disappears into his room.

He comes back and he has something in his hand, its long and green? A rope maybe? 

"Whats that?" I ask.

Veneer starts hopping out of his window and for a second my heart drops and I instinctively hold out my hands, only to drop them when he sticks to the wall? He's fine, hes just slowly moving down the wall. He stays halfway up the wall and hes holding out this green rope thing?

"What? What am I supposed-"

"Climb up here and grab the tail" he says to me. He sounds tired but I see that hes wiggling the 'tail' around.

Hes about 10 feet off the ground but nonetheless I still try and I actually make it up two feet. Only to lose my grip on a smoother brick.  So rock climbing was out, I look back at Veneer and he seems  confused. 

"Can- can you not climb?" He asks, a bewildered look on his face. 

"uuh... no I can't. If you hadn't seen me fall on my tail two seconds ago" I felt slightly annoyed. And confused. I knew that we weren't the same species but I didn't exactly know how different we were. "Now can you please help me up?"

I saw Veneer quickly scale down the wall, maybe he was giggling at me or the wind was especially melodic tonight, either way. His legs moved in such a rhythmic way, no fear of falling. Once he was almost to the ground he turned around, his tail facing me, the heat in my cheeks when that wasn't even possible evident.

"Well come on, she'll be up any second" he wiggles his tail at me and I grab onto it. 

He makes a sound, and I ask if I hurt him. He doesn't respond and instead starts breathing and starts making his way up, leaving me to dangle as I watch us get higher and higher off the ground. At this I start to panic, a fall from this high up will most likely end with a broken tail. 

He gets to the window and forcefully pulls us both through, sending me flying into his dresser. Headache on contact, but its done, I'm in his room. I smile at him and he lowers his brow as he frowns at me. He licks his eye and- WHAT THE FUCK HE JUST LICKED HIS EYE!!!???

"dude what was that!?" I whisper yell at him, I've never seen him do that before. Its kind of freaky. 

"What?" Is all he says to me. 

"Nothing I- I just uhh- saw a bug- YEAH a bug" I say a little too loudly and that causes Veneer to rush forward and cover my mouth.

I hear loud footsteps and Veneer is glaring at me. 

Veneer POV

Well now we've both just been fucked. I know that if Velvet sees him she'll skin him and wear him as a hat. Now not only has Ritz put my sleep on the line but now he's also gambled his life as well. Velvet has always made good on her promises.

I hear her call me, shes almost halfway down the hall, and I'm looking to Ritz. I uncover his mouth and tell him to hide somewhere. I don't have enough time to pretend to be asleep as I hear my door slam open. 

"Lil bro, you better have a DAMN good reason as to why all I hear is slamming and talking" I look at her, her sleeping mask on her head and her socks falling off, her eye bags visible. 

"Uuh well I was just umm... I" my eyes dart all over the room and I damn near double over in anger. This motherfucker decided the best hiding spot was next to my vanity, cosplaying a lamp. "I don't know?"

Velvet looks around my room and just barely misses Ritz. 

"Just get to sleep alright? I'm tired" she turns around and wishes me a good night before closing my door and making her way back to her room. I sigh and turn around to where Ritz is standing. I walk over to him and take the lampshade off his stupid head, uncovering his even stupider face. 

He just smiles at me, before dropping it and apologizing. I don't even know what to say to him. I just roll my eyes and walk over to my bed. He looks at me with puppy eyes and I pat the empty spot on my bed, watching as he walks over, a grin on his face. He lays next to me and moves in for a kiss.

I push his face back and roll over so I face the wall. 

"I'm sorry" is all I hear before he moves to spoon me. His arm over my waist as his head presses into my neck and back. I turn ever so much and give him a small peck on his lips, watching as he slowly flusters before rolling back over. 

"So... whats with the licking your eye thing?" 

I'm just never going to get a good nights sleep am I?
