Roman annoyed Anxiety. That's an understatement if Anxiety could back flip away from Roman he would even if that meant back flipping into a field of Legos.

"What ya doing?" Roman asked sliding up next to Anxiety, getting way too close and personally.

Anxiety opened his eyes and scowled. "Trying to take a nap," he replied, glaring at Roman.

"Why? You got like 12 hours of sleep last night," Roman responded, wondering how someone could sleep that much.

Anxiety sat up and said, "Because I'm tired of your bullshit," causing Roman to gasp and slap his hand to his chest with a painful-sounding thud.

"Ow, that hurts," Roman said not sure if he was referring to Anxiety's insult or the fact that he just slapped himself in the chest.

"Good it was supposed to," Anxiety replied, going to lay back down and hopefully take a nap, but Roman not so gently pushed him off of the couch causing him to yell, "What the fuck?!?"

Roman just smiled and sarcastically asked, "Did that hurt?"

"Fight me," Anxiety said, staring Roman down. The urge to punch Roman in his perfect face building.

Roman snorted with laughter and responded, "Are you sure you could take me? You are pretty scrawny," an arrogant smile gracing his face.

"That's it," Anxiety thought as he launched himself off of the ground and tackled Roman. Not missing a beat Roman shoved Anxiety off of him and jumped to his feet, waiting for the next attack, which came shortly after. Anxiety charged him and punching Roman in the face. Once again Roman pushed Anxiety backward, but this time he fell to the ground and Roman pinned him there in an attempted to end the fight.

Silence. At the same time, they both realized the position they were in, Anxiety's wrist pinned above his head and Roman's knee between Anxiety's leg. The only sound that could be heard was Anxiety's light panting as he tried to catch his breath from the fight only moments early. In those few moments, the entire atmosphere of the room changed completely.

"Could you maybe get off of me?" Anxiety asked in a hoarse whisper, not sure how to react in this situation.

Roman swallowed nervously and answered with a gently kiss, no idea why he did it, but it felt oh so right. When he pulled away he stared at Anxiety scared about what the other's response would be.

Anxiety couldn't hold back his grin as he said, "I hate you unconditionally," Roman's heart sank, "But I love you just as much," he finished looking Roman in the eyes.

Roman smiled, but this time instead of being arrogant it was gentle and loving, he didn't know what they were doing, but he knew he loved it and Anxiety.
