Duke and the Duchess (Rouxls Kaard x Reader)

04

Wow. You really didn't notice how bent out of shape you were until today. You walked about a mile with the blue man, and your legs already hurt. Dang, I need to stop eating so much, you thought, stopping outside Rouxls's little home, and stepping inside. You tried to catch your breath, which resulted in your lungs throwing a fit and refusing to work properly. You sighed, and flopped on to the bean bag in the guest room. 

"Welcome back, Y/N," Sunstone called, currently tying Jig's scarf around her neck, but not enough to choke her. "How was your little date?" 

You scoffed. "It was not a date, jerkface," you said, laughing a little bit at the thought. Did you think Rouxls was attractive? Yes. Did you want to dive in to another relationship that was probably going to fail? Hell naw. 

"So, Sunstone, how've you been while I was gone?" you asked.

"Not half bad. Jig dropped her scarf on the floor, so I helped her put it back on," he replied.  

Yeah, sure, "dropped it." You decided not to press any further. 

"Mhmm. Jig, how are you?"

"Oh!" she said, "I've been doing fine. I kind of freaked out when you weren't here, but Sun helped me out" She chuckled, in the nervous tone you were all too familiar with. You didn't press on this, either. 

"What's your boyfriend like, anyways?" Sunstone asked, the teasing in his tone becoming ever-so apparent.

"Okay, first off, he is not my boyfriend, and second off....He loves worms.....and he certainly knows his directions around this place," you replied, struggling to not over-spill the info you knew. Like how his strange soupy-substance made your mouth drool each time you saw it, or how well muscled he looks. Expecially-

No. Not finishing that thought. 

Suddenly, a knock at the door caught all of you guys's attention. "Hello? Art thou worms discussing moi?"

Sunstone snickered, but as soon as he opened his mouth to speak, you clapped your hand over it. "N-no! We're just discussing eachother's day." Shoot, did I stutter?! 

 Surprisingly, he bought it. "Oh, wellth. Didest thoust plan to?"

Shoot, caught red handed! You might as well had just made a deal with the devil when you censored the little orange Rudiin,  and now you were going to pay the price. "Y/N might've!" he called, covering his giggles as your face went from its normal tone to a raspberry red. "S-S-Sunstone!" you whisper-yelled, picking him up by his shirt's scruff. "You dumbo! That's private!" 

He laughed, a full blown laugh, and you thanked whatever force that didn't blow your cover that the door was locked. An audible gawk could be heard outside, but you were too busy thrashing Sunstone to notice. 

"Guys! Don't fight!" Jig called, unaware that you didn't plan to harm Sunstone. "Ah, sorry Jig," you responded, placing the small worm-man down on the floor. 

"Why ist the door locked?!" Rouxls called, the drumming on the door becoming more audible.

Well, there goes the thanks to that unknown force.
