~Y/N's Pov~

I sat on the couch, sipping a cup of hot cocoa. I was watching F/Sh... but I was also watching something else. I couldn't help myself from watching him, shoveling the fresh snowfall outside.

I wonder if he's cold... I get up and wander into the kitchen, my tail happily wagging as I reach up to grab a package of carob powder for a hot carob, the werewolf version of hot chocolate. I gently warm up milk and pour the carob powder inside, putting it back into the microwave to keep it warm enough.

I turn around and jump, his cheeks flushed from the cold. His ears twitch at the sudden jolt I had made.

"When did you come inside?!" I ask and he chuckles a little, rubbing my ears.

"Not long ago. I just saw you put something in the microwave, that's all."

"I made a cup of hot carob for you... That's all." I mumble and he smiles a little.

"Thanks Y/N." His tail wags happily as he grabs the cup from the microwave. He quickly sets it down and looks at his hands. "Damn... again?!"

"You keep burning yourself?" I laugh, and he sighs.

"Yeah... I'm just really spacious lately."

"Just... grab a hot pad. Where do you keep them?" I begin to look around and he opens a cupboard, wrapping it around his mug.

"Got it." He looks at me and I sigh.

"Alright..." I wander back to the couch and sit down, resuming watching the TV.

"That's all?" He wanders over and sits down next to me, his tail curling up his lap.

"I guess... I thought you'd be freezing so I made you something to warm up." I look at his tail, which had snow chunks in it. "Wait, did you go outside with your ears and tail showing?"

"Yeah, nobody was outside." He sips his hot carob and smiles. "Did you use milk?"

"Yeah. It usually makes it creamer." I chuckle and begin to pick out chunks of snow from his tail.

"Y-You don't need to do that Y/N." He grabs my hand and I look up at him.

"But I want to."

"I-" He sighs and lets go of my hand. "Fine, go ahead."

"Thank you." I chuckle and continue to pull out snow. When I finish, I begin to reach for his ears when he swats my hand away.

"Please ask to do that. You could have startled me."

"Sorry Aaron..."

"It's... It's fine." He sighs and picks out the snow from his ears.

I look down at my tail, which was curled down by my side, and then back to his, which was laying on my lap. I softly begin to brush his tail, startling him.

"What are you doing?!" His tail puffs up a little and I laugh.

"I don't know, why was your tail on my lap, huh?"

"Because it settled there... that's why." He mumbles and sighs.

"Poor excuse." I say and he grumbles. "Sorry, but it's true."

"Whatever you want to believe Y/N."

"I'm believing the truth." I look at his tail, wagging gently.

"You know what?" He tackles me and ruffles up my hair, making me laugh.

This reminds me of when we were kids. Because of our curses, we were both very dominate werewolves around each other, so we would rough house. We looked like a bunch of idiots, but it was just something we did as friends.

"What's so funny?" He looks down at me, his arms pressing down my own to keep me down.

"You're acting like a kid! It's so adorable!" I look at him, light blush dusting his cheeks from under his bandana. I begin to feel my face get warm.

"Shut up." He mumbles and I laugh, making him sit up on my legs, his tail wagging happily behind him.

"Just admit you had fun doing that, you always loved to tease me back then."

"Did not."

"Aaron, don't lie."

"I am not lying." His ears twitch.

"Aaron, don't be afraid to be you. Nobody is going to judge you for acting normal, at least I won't."

"That's because you are a good person Y/N." He smiles a little and he rubs my ears gently, making me burn more in the face.

"You should probably stay away from me. I do have I cold I believe."

"I don't believe that." He feels my forehead, his hands still cold from the outside.

I sneeze and he laughs, making me confused. "What's so funny about me sneezing?"

"You're obviously lying about being sick. If you were really sick, you'd be coughing, and other nasty stuff. You could be warm from embarrassment and sneezing from allergies."

"I'm not embarrassed. Why would I be embarrassed?"

"Because I'm teasing you." He says with a sigh.

"Sorry... I'm oblivious a lot."

"And I like you that way..." He mumbles quietly.

"What?"

"Nothing." He gets off the couch and takes his empty mug and mine to the kitchen, placing it next to the sink to be washed.

"Aarooon..."

"It's seriously nothing Y/N. If you really want to know, I said that I understand. I can be that way myself sometimes."

"Oh... Alright." I smiles and look at my phone, Aph had messaged me about Thanksgiving dinner, and how the date was coming up. I respond with a yes, that I'm coming over most likely.

"Ugh, black Friday is coming up." Aaron grumbles and I laugh.

"What? Do you go shopping by yourself on that day?"

"Yeah, I usually need to get things to improve the house a little."

"You're getting old." I laugh and he growls.

"I-I know. I can't help that." I look at him, his face flushed.

"You're so smooth and collected." I laugh and he huffs.

Why does he deny to act normal?

But when he does...

It's kinda cute... Heh.
