Meant to Be (BlakeXLeo)

Pretty Cool

I sat at the kitchen table next to Blake and across from Jake and Lady. Jake was watching every move Blake made and I could feel the awkwardness in the air. I took a bite out of my sandwich. They had instantly made it for me after I had finished the kimbap. So now it was my excuse for not talking. "Sooo...." Jake let the word die off. "Yeah..." Blake answered. I raised a brow at them. 

"Card Wars?" At that Lady got up swiftly and started speaking in a language I didn't understand. If I didn't know any better I would say Jake had started to blush, but of course dogs couldn't blush. I leaned over to Blake. "You're uncle seems pretty cool." I whispered in his ear.He laughed and gave me a sidelong look. "What?" I asked. He shrugged. 

"Nothing. Most of my friends or-er most of my friends have never really used those words to describe him to me. Or their friends..." He said the last part under his breath, but I had still caught it. "You guys are just awkward....It's kinda cute." I told him with a smirk. He blushed and his hair flamed up. I let out a small laugh. 

"Uhm. Lady says no Card Wars...so is there something else you wanna do?" Jake said in a cautious sort of shy voice. "Where's BMO? I haven't seen him in a while." Blake asked while rubbing his hands nervously on his pants. I looked away from them to hide my smile.

"Oh he's off somewhere. I don't know where he runs off to these days." Jake said. Apparently BMO was a safe topic and they felt more comfortable talking about him. "Oh."

We were back in the coach on our way to the fire kingdom. "You know Blake you're really cute when you're shy. It's quite adorable really." I said with my head on his shoulder. He shook his head. "You were no help in there. I didn't know what to say the entire time. I never know what to say to him. It's not that I don't like my uncle. We just don't talk enough anymore for me to know what to say." Blake said while laying his head on mine. 

"I don't know how I could've possibly helped you, but I'm sorry for not." I said. 

"It's fine."

I closed my eyes and swam in the darkness it allowed. I was suddenly dreading the heat of the fire kingdom. They had set a fire protection spell on me, but I knew it was still gonna be hot. Is this really a good idea Leo? I asked my self before drifting off into a deep dreamless sleep.

A/N: Hey guys. Sorry it's so short, but I'm just trying to get to a certain point, and then the chapters will be longer, I promise!                   ~Xoxo, Toxic
