Part 3, fluff
That night when he'd come over to eat dinner, for the hundredth time, something made me realize my love for him. That night, we'd confessed our feelings, and now, I would consider us to be a couple. We did couple things regularly, nights in, nights out, days spent well.
We've taken it slow, to make things last, to make sure we really understand each other and who we are, and who we are together. Still, I worry about his reaction to seeing my ears. I have Faunus ears, they're Kinkajou ears. Of course I have human ears to go along with it, so I believe he doesn't suspect a thing.
The thing that concerns me the most now, is how very little I know of his life, he tells me he's staying with a friend, but I can't visit him. He tells me he works as a handy man, if that's the case, how can he pay for his expensive suits? The worries I have about him are not outweighed by my love for him, they're just always floating at the back of my mind, and I wonder if these things which he keeps from me will even make me regret our relationship. Thoughts are scary, and I can't help but wonder, is he? He's unknowingly in love with a Faunus, me, people he does not show support for. I'm still a huntress, I should know what to do in times of worry and pain, but still, it's hard to figure out the right way to do things when you're in love.
As I'm lost in my own thoughts of him, my worries, and my love, my doorbell buzzes loudly, breaking me out my thoughts like glass shattering. "Oh, right." I mutter to no one but me. Roman was coming over today once again.
I stand up, my feet padding on the floor as I walk, I readjust my scarf carefully. Then, checking the peephole, I can see the love of my life standing outside, a box in his hands. I smile, and open the door.
Roman steps inside, placing his coat on the coat rack's side, and his hat on the top. "I brought you something that I thought might be useful to you." He says, opening the box he's holding in front of me.
My eyes widen, I peer inside, eyes reflecting off the sparkling gem I see inside. Inside, is a beautiful bracelet with a red gem embedded into it. I pluck it out of the box, and fit it onto my wrist. "Roman..." I say softly, my voice shaking with joy. "Thank you!" I exclaim, jumping onto him so hard that he drops the box. I kiss him quickly. He kisses right back.
"I think you deserve something nice every once in awhile, or all the time if I can." Roman laughs, hugging onto me tightly. I can feel him staring at me, with my face buried into his chest.
A short while later, Roman takes me out to eat, brining me to a fancy restaurant. I'm all smiles, and if he took me to a dingy restaurant I'd feel the the same level of joy, simply because I'd be with him.
Sitting down, I sip my water and casually eat my bread. He does the same, we keep glancing up at each other, smiling. "Honey, I know what I'm getting, what will you get?" He asks me, carefully inspecting the menu.
"I have no idea. What are you having?" I ask him. I've always been bad at choosing what I want. Everything, from my perspective, just looks and seems amazing. I could feel my mouth watering just by reading the menu. "I was going to get caramelized onions with grilled turkey breast. We can share, it says there's enough for two." He replies, getting the waiters attention.
Before I can say what I want drink, Roman tells the waiter exactly what I wanted. As the waiter walks away, I look at my boyfriend and ask him, "How did you know?"
Roman laughed. He smoothly said, "I know what kind of beverage my girlfriend likes. I try my best to know you, after all." After he says that, I see a blush creep onto his cheeks, like ivy wrapping its way onto a wall. Seeing him like that heats me up, and makes me uncertain of what to say or do.
