FADE TO COLOR

Chapter 8~ Late Night Discussions

((Ryan's P.O.V.))

I smiled at the smaller male, holding him to my chest as we relaxed on the couch, our hands locked together in comfortable silence. I felt my lips tug up further as I looked at the smaller male.

Everything about him was now in color... his warm slightly tanned skin, his soft blonde hair with darker brownish lowlights... how his cheeks glowed with a soft rose blush whenever he was flustered or happy... how his clear, soft blue eyes sparkled and glowed with happiness...

Everything about him was so beautiful and colorful...

I grinned softly and leaned down slightly, brushing my lips against his sweetly before holding him closer and breathing, "it's getting late, Felix... you should sleep..."

Felix's eyes opened and he looked at me, pushing his lips before frowning slightly, "but I'm comfortable here... don't make me move I'm too lazy!"

I smiled and chuckled softly, rolling my eyes, "you have done absolutely nothing productive today. Least you could do is go to bed on time."

"Wow I have known you for like three days and you already talk like my mom."

"Its what I'm here for. Now. Don't make me carry you."

He huffed and pouted, still not moving, "nah."

"God you're an idiot."

"I'm YOUR idiot. Get it right man."

I exhaled and stood, picking up the smaller blonde and slinging him over my shoulder before walking from the couch, wandering down a random hall until I found what I assumed what was his bedroom.

Felix sighed loudly and pouted harder, making him look like a tiny angry child. "You're too tall for your own good."

"Well you're too short."

"Just means I'm closer to hell."

"Wow okay... just shut up and lay down, shortie."

Felix blushed and huffed shortly, falling back onto the bed. But not before he grabbed me by my shirt and dragged me down with him, causing me to fall on top of him.

The blonde squeaked and blushed harder, "gerroff me!! I can't breathe!!!"

I snickered and grinned innocently, rolling off of him, "payback is a bitch."

"No. You are."

"Oh you shut up."

"Make me."

"Nah."

Felix rolled his eyes and blushed softly, smiling and grabbing my arm, cuddling into my side. "Ryan-san?"

I blushed and chuckled, "yeah shortie?"

He blushed harder, his cheeks a warm rose red. "Um... Will you... s-stay here tonight...?"

I blinked, then smiled warmly and pressed my lips to his hair, "if you want me to, of course I will." Felix smiled and closed his eyes, moving closer.

I held the smaller blonde, pulling the dark comforter over us and exhaling in relaxation.

That's when I noticed Felix started fidgeting and biting his lip.

I looked at him, "what's up...?"

He sighed and sat up slightly, looking at me with his pretty blue eyes. "Ryan... my brother visited me today... and we got talking... the thing is; almost no one has been documented with being able to see color for 100 years... that our "soul mate's"... well it's a taboo. It was turned into an urban legend... Ryan, some things not right here... I don't mean between us, I mean with everyone. Why is it hushed? Why is it taboo? Why is it so... uncommon? And... why aren't we born to be able to see color naturally...? What happened to our species that caused this in our genetic code? What if... what if this is all leading to something horrible?... I'm scared Ryan..."

I paused and looked at Felix, then blinked and bit my lip. "I... I've thought the same thing... if you ask me this isn't exactly natural, now is it?"

He shook his head and let out a breath, "what if something happens?"

I pulled him back into my arms and closed my eyes, "I won't let anything happen. Trust me, Felix. Even if all of this is unnatural... that doesn't mean I don't love you or care for you..." I whispered softly, running my fingers through his soft, yet messy blonde hair.

He relaxed, and he moved into my embrace, "thank you, Ryan..."

"Don't worry about it, Felix..."

Wowie two chapters in one day?

Wow I'm getting better at this Shit.

Woo plot!! So much plot! It's like a thick spaghetti sauce. The plot thickens it. *Papyrus laughter*

I'm sorry that was needed.
