There was a moment of silence, the two lost in eye contact with each other. Pit calmed down his sobbing and a few tears still trickled down his reddened cheeks. His bottom lip was twitching not because of the crying but for something else, something more tenderly. The atmosphere was heavy, making Pit's mouth open by an inch; leaning more towards Dark.
"I promise not to go."
Pit doubted Dark had noticed the air yet, but he gave it a shot anyways. He wrapped his arms around Dark's neck and pulled him in for a kiss. Dark's eyes shot open at the sudden invasion of his lips. Pit shifted into a sitting position to crave more from the other's mouth. After getting tired from it, he broke the kiss and looked at Dark in the eye. He was expecting a punch or a push...
But Dark was not that type, not to Pit. He looked back at the blue in shock but it soothed out. He began to form a smile but quickly broke it when Pit moved to the other side of the couch and curled into a ball. Even though it was pitch black in the living room, Dark could see Pit's ears poking out and they were in a deep shade of red.
"I'm... I'm so sorry Dark! I don't know what got into me!"
Dark shook his head in amusement and moved sitting near the brunette ball. He extended his arms open and hugged Pit close.
"I care for you too, Pit. You're the nicest person I have ever met. Compared to back then..."
Dark trailed off from a compliment to a dark low mumbling, twitching and smiling. Pit was too embarrassed to understand whatever he mumbled.
"I'm sorry, though! I didn't-"
"Hush, you tomato. I won't leave you. So quit pretending to be a ball and let's go to sleep."
Pit looked up and his face lit up with joy once again. To Dark his face was like a nightlight: so shiny you can even see it in darkness. Pit sniffed away his last tear and looked to his side, chuckling softly.
"I'd say... That's my 'thanks' for... staying with me."
