Duke and the Duchess (Rouxls Kaard x Reader)

05

You turned the slot inside the doorknob, unlocking the door. 

"Welleth, worm, what wereth thou going to discusseth about moi?"  Rouxls asked, walking into your doorway and standing there, hands on his hips. 

"W-well-" you started...

"He was talking about how 'hot you are!'" Sunstone called, giggling as Jig hit him with her scarf. 

Rouxls's cheeks turned a large electric blue, and your own face was probably as red as a Christmas tree ornament. "No I wasn't," you muttered to Rouxls, who was still currently getting over the slight shock. 

"Well, even if thoust were," Rouxls said, almost inaudibly, "I...wouldn'tst mindeth.." 

You blushed at that. "Wow. Never took you as a softie," you teased, pulling away from him as to not cause suspicion.  He scoffed.

"I didn't taketh thou as homosexual," Rouxls replied, making you punch him playfully in the shoulder.

"You started it, so maybe you're gay," you replied, crossing your arms and giving Rouxls the sassiest look you could muster.

He stuttered, not coming up with an answer, and left. You sat down on the bean bag again, and Sunstone uncorked all the laughter he was holding in. Jig, despite herself, started laughing too. You couldn't help but giggle.

It was kind of absurd how the tall blue man reacted, but you didn't seem to mind as the pleasant fluffy feeling between your lungs swirled in your chest again.

As you came down off your high, you began to wonder about your own sexuality. Sure, sometimes you liked girls, but lately you've been having strong feelings about a certain blue-suited man.

Oh shoot, you were bisexual. I mean, you had a nagging suspicion since you were ten, but now it was all too clear. Huh, kinda anticlimactic. Maybe you should tell your pals.

You shook it off and stepped outside again. You wandered to the room next door, andknocked on Rouxls's door.

"Cometh in," he said. You opened the door and Rouxls stared at you.

"Y/N? What ist thou doing here?"

"I came to apologise for calling you gay earlier. That was really crappy of me."

Rouxls beckoned you forward, and you sat down next to him on his bed. He took a deep breath, and what he said next shocked you.

"The truth ist... I am gayeth," Rouxls said, looking away from you, possibly in embarrassment. You nodded in understanding, despite being stunned.

"Well, I'm bisexual, so I guess it works out," you said, placing your hand on his shoulder.

"Y/n, I must confess," Rouxls said, "that I haveth been keeping this a secret for a longe time. Will you promise not to tell anyone until I geteth public with ith?"

You nodded. "I promise."
