Aoba looked around at the empty Heibon and sighed. 'Not a single customer in sight...not even a sight of the brats either,' He thought, placing his cheek in the palm of his hand. Suddenly the bell chimed as someone walked in. He smiled and perked up."Yokoso! Welcome to Heibon!" He said, his mood brightening when he saw who it was. Ren smiled and said, "I thought I'd come see how work was going for you," walking up to the counter and sitting on it. Aoba sighed and said, "It's going pretty shitty, there hasn't been a customer all day and no sign of the brats either...", placing his arms behind his head and stretching with a loud yawn. Ren chuckled and said, "Sorry, how about I sit up here and keep you company until your shift ends?" He blushed and shook his head. "Ah! No....Nonono! I-I couldn't ask you to do that! You'll be stuck here bored out of your mind!" He said nervously. Ren cocked his head to the side and said, "Are you alright Aoba? You're face is really red right now and you seem feverish," hopping over the counter and placing his hand on Aoba's forehead. Aoba quickly backed away and blushed deeper. "I-I'm fine...y-you should probably go, I-I'm about to close up anyway..." He said, looking away from Ren. Suddenly, Aoba felt Ren's large hand grab his wrist and was gently pulled closer to him, feeling his soft lips meet with Ren's. His eyes widened at first as his face quickly turned bright red, then he just sighed and kissed him back, letting his eyes close. The kiss ended after several long minutes and they both sat there silently for a moment before Ren cleared his throat. "I-I should probably..." He said, about to turn to leave when he felt Aoba's small, feminine hand grab his broad wrist. Aoba fidgeted, his face bright red. "U-um...c-could you stay here while I close up?...W-we could walk home together..." He said, growing more embarrassed by the second.  Ren's eyes widened as he did the same, then he smiled and walked over to Aoba, kissing his cheek. "Sure, Aoba, I'd love to," he said with a smile. And so with that, Aoba took Ren's hand in his and locked up the shop, walking home with a smile on their faces that refused to leave.
