"it's pouring." amara frowned, watching the rain slide down the windowsill, her legs tangled with joji's on the couch.

"great observation." joji chuckled, earning a hard nudge from amara.

amara continued to let the sound of the rain soothe her as the drops left streaks down the window.

"i'll be back." joji smiled, leaving a soft kiss on amara's forehead.

amara sat confused and now cold due to the fact her warmth came from joji.

"what's going on?" amara questioned, observing joji walking through the door, two large paper bags in each hand.

"burgers." joji simply replied.

"burgers?" amara mumbled to herself meeting joji in the kitchen.

amara stared wide eyed at the sight of what seemed like an endless supply of burgers from various places.

"i bet you can't eat ten." joji smirked confidently.

"i'll make a better bet. who ever eats more burgers gets to pick the movie we watch." amara spoke, slowly reaching for a burger.

before joji could agree or disagree, amara grabbed a burger beginning to munch on it.

*many burgers and belly aches later*

"let's watch scott pilgrim vs. the world." amara suggested from her victory, sprawling her legs out on joji's lap.

joji didn't want to admit it but he secretly loved scott pilgrim, he thought it was an all around great film with an even better soundtrack.

"fine, but," joji paused as amara flipped through netflix.

"we have to try something different." he finished, shrugging his shoulders.

joji was always close with amara, but never as close as he'd like to be. they'd often do things couples would do and say, minus the labels and such.

"sure?" amara agreed, completely unaware of what she was agreeing to.

joji slowly moved across the couch laying behind amara, wrapping his long arm around her.

this sparked a familiar feeling, one amara has grown to specifically adore. even the slightest touch from joji ignited all the warm and fuzzy feelings.

"cuddling?" amara simply chuckled.

"if you don't want to i-" amara cut joji's stammering off, scooting closer.

"i like it." amara admitted bashfully, shattering all embarrassment from joji's mind.

"wait this is my favorite part." joji laughed softly, moving amara's hair with his breath.

the two watched as the vegan police scene finished, earning a deep laugh from joji.

amara turned and admired joji's pretty smile as he laughed uncontrollably.
