Riba's Pov:
After a little while, I drew my lips away from Mario's. He looked shocked, and his face was very red. Did I do something wrong? what if he doesn't ACTUALLY like me back? dammit why did I do that-
"I-" Mario stuttered. "I love you too." He broke out into another blush.
My heart skipped a beat. A smile slowly crept up onto my face. "You don't know how long I've felt the same."
He got even more flustered. I decided to lean in and kiss him again, this time, he leaned into the kiss as well.
Suddenly, we heard two voices, I drew back.
"I f**king called it. give me my 20."
"Grr... Frick you."
"Awh I think they heard us lmao."
"Hey there-" They stood up. It was that person who gave us the house!
"I was riiiight~!" The other one said, also standing.
"sssshhhut up." They said.
"But i waaas..."
Marios entire face was bright red, including his ears. "H-How long were you here?!"
"Long enough to see y'all SMOOC-"
The house giver slapped their hand over the others mouth. "We're very sorry for intruding I uh... Congratulations on figuring out something about yourselves..."
My face was also progressively turning redder- especially at the fact they literally made a BET about what I assumed was if Mario and I would kiss or not. "I- Thanks- I guess. Mario and I are gonna uh- go now..." I grabbed Mario's hand and bolted off.
"Omg their so gay :3" I heard the one who won the bet in the distance.
That was so embarrassing! Who even spies on peoples love lif- Whatever- I was now home and I opened the door, let Mario in, and then shut it.
His face was still completely red. "I'm-a... I'm just gonna go lie down." He walked upstairs.
Poor Mario- he must be as embarrassed as I am... I quickly followed behind him and entered the bedroom with him, where he flopped down on the bed, still red as a tomato.
"Well... at least there aren't any people to spy on us in here..." I said, sitting onto the bed.
"I uh... well yeah..." His face got even a darker shade of red.
I laid down next to him and wrapped my arms around him. He buried his face into my chest, and I kissed him on the forehead, then stroked his hair with my hand, which caused him to nuzzle even deeper into my chest. Eventually, he fell asleep... Wow. I had almost forgotten what love felt like after all these centuries. But. now I had it again... and it felt nice... Marios slow, patterned breathing lured me into sleep as well.
