Forever?

Sykkuno

We headed downstairs, and I grabbed the apron from the hook. "Wait you wear an apron?" He asked.

"Yeah? What of it?" I pouted.

"Nothing, nothing." He waved his hand. I could feel his eyes trailing me as I moved through the kitchen.

"Go set the table while I cook okay?" I asked. His eyes were making me nervous. Like if I messed up, he'd laugh at me.

He walked up behind me and touched my shoulders. "Sure thing, Alec."

"The plates are right up here." I opened it with my free hand so he could grab it. I don't know what it is, but when he said my name, I felt happy. That someone, anyone knew that I was Corpse and still liked me anyway. I pulled the drawer open so he could get the utensils. "I hope you like spaghetti and meatballs."

"No way! Of course! I don't know how people couldn't. Do you have Parmesan Cheese?" Sykkuno licked his lips as he looked over the bowl of spaghetti.

It's almost like he's doing this on purpose. I didn't just see it, but I could hear his tongue glide over his lips. "Y-Yeah, It's in the fridge." Soon enough, every part of the food is done, including the garlic bread. I brought it over to the table. "Take as much as you want."

"Now I feel bad. You did all of this for me. What can I do around the house to help you? I can't be staying here for free." He took some of the food and put it on his plate. "I'm good at cleaning." At that moment, I thought of him wearing a maid dress, sitting on the floor, and looking hella sexy. I blocked my eyes and waved my hand. "No, no, no really that's perfectly fine. You don't have to do anything."

"Even so, I still don't want to make you do all the work. I already told everyone on my youtube channel that I'll be gone for a couple of days, so not streaming won't be a problem." He sighed. "Alec!"

I dropped my fork and looked up at him. He really needs to stop saying my name in his sweet voice. "Yes?" I answered calmly.

"I will clean this house for you and you will not complain! Are we clear?!" So assertive."Y-Yes!" I yelled back.

"Good, we're on the same page here." He hummed while he ate his food. He kicked his legs under the table. He was way shorter than I thought he would be. He almost looks like a teenager. He is still older than me.

He finished his food quickly, even after he had seconds and thirds. I finished my second place right after his third. He took my dishes from me and started to wash them. I had a sudden urge to grab his waist but, instead, I said, "I'm gonna go in the loft and play some games. Come upstairs after you're done okay?" He made a shooing motion with his hand.

Did he just shoo me? He could've given me a thumbs up. Maybe he's really focused.I was upstairs for a while before Kuno came up. "Hey, your real name is Thomas right?" I asked.

"Yeah...I just liked to be called Sykkuno. In your case Kuno." he scratched the back of his head and sat next to me on the floor. "Can I ask you a question?"

"Shoot." I gave Kuno a controller.

"I was wondering. What made you want to become a faceless YouTuber?" He looked at me, and I froze. "You don't have to answer!"

"No, no, it's fine." I took a deep breath in and out. "So, back when I was in school, a lot of people told me that I was nothing. That I would amount to nothing. Apart from me wanted to prove them wrong. So I dropped out. I didn't have a plan. I knew I wanted to be someone who just made other people happy, so they didn't have to feel the way I felt. I never thought I would be a simp magnet, but still, I feel happy about what I do. So in short, I've just been through a lot of stuff you know..."

He rested his hand on my shoulder. "I get it, Alec. I did just beat you in this game though." I looked at the screen, and my side said loser. "How? When did you-but I-we just-what!" I stuttered.

"Behold the power of Sykkuno and a controller." I laughed.

"Oh yeah? Wanna bet?" I started the next game, and as soon as it started he somehow found me and killed me. "How are you doing this?"

"Who knows. I'm just lucky." I glared at him, and he just laughed.

It felt like we played for days when only it was a few hours. It felt so endless when I was with Kuno. I didn't feel any pressure. No anxiety. It felt colorful with him. Even though he did beat me all the time. Actually, most of the time. That's not the point. "How are you so good at this game?!"

"I'm just lucky, I told you." He grinned.

"You say that one more time I will tackle you." I pushed his shoulder lightly.

"Yeah, yeah, big guy. Listen, you couldn't do it." Kuno pouted.

"You wanna bet?" I dropped my controller and pushed him down to the ground. I started to tickle his stomach when I did, the more he laughed and squirmed under me.

"S-Stop!" He laughed.

"No way!" I yelled back.

"A-Alec! Please!" Kuno grunted.

"Fine, Fine, I'll stop." I placed my hands beside his head.

His body was sweaty and tired. Kuno's hand was clutched around the controller for dear life. He wasn't looking at me because he was trying to catch his breath. Even so...I still wanted to touch him. I moved my face closer to his, and at that moment, he opened his eyes.

With just his eyes be found a way to hold me down. How does he do it? What makes him so special to me? I could feel his chest rise up and down. We were so close. I was trying to move, but I was too paralyzed to do it. I felt his leg through my jeans.

"A-Alec?" Kuno asked. "You okay? You're crying?" His hands reached up to my face. I felt butterflies. His hands weren't just soft but they were comforting. I don't know why, but my eyes closed. It felt so familiar.

"Sorry, It's just been a long time since I've had this much fun." I lied. I wanted to say, 'It's been a long time since I fell in love with someone like you.'

"Let's head to bed okay?" He smiled.

"Of course, it's late anyway." As I got up, I felt my knee rub against something. I hoped it wasn't what I thought it was.

Kuno got up quickly and turned the other way. "I'm gonna go to the bathroom for a second before I go to bed. Do you mind cleaning up?"

"I mean it is my house. There is a bathroom right there if you'd like." I think it was.

I cleaned up and set up our beds. Kuno didn't come out for a while so, I decided to close my eyes and try to go to sleep. "That felt really good. It's hard to hold your pee for that long." He came out and immediately went to the couch. Apart of me wishes he would've stopped and maybe just talked to me. I knew it wouldn't happen.

"This might be the only time I get to see you. Good night, Alec." He heard him shift to the couch and go silent.

What?
