"Y/N please let me hold him!!" Whined Leo, watching you happily play with your pet hamster, Nibbles.
"No way! Last time I gave him to you, you nearly dropped him from two feet in the air you idiot!" You snapped, keeping guard of Nibbles.
"HE BIT ME THOUGH!!" He yelled.
"Still no excuse," you said simply, not bothering to look up.
"I promise I won't drop him again! I'm really sorry about before," he urged, "and you know I was sorry for that! I spent two weeks straight apologising to you!"
"Yeah, yeah," you sighed, "I still ain't givin' him to you!" You smirked.
"Argh plleeaaaasseeeeeeeee?" He complained.
"Eh, maybe," you said, "but for now, you can go and play with the cat."
"Ew cats are boring as!" He moaned. "I wanna hold Nibbles!"
"Ugh fine, but only for 2 seconds," you said, slowly passing the small creature to him.
He carefully let him run up and down his arms and crawl along his hands, being very cautious on what he was doing. Suddenly, a brown lump of poo appeared on his hand.
"EW EW EW EW EW EW Y/N GET IT OFF OF ME!!!!" He screamed, dropping Nibbles on to the floor.
Without warning, you saw Nibbles scurried off behind the sofa.
"LEONDRE YOU IDIOT!" You exclaimed, swatting him. "COME ON, WE GOTTA FIND HIM BEFORE ITS TOO LATE!"
"OMG I'm so so so so so so so so so so sorry Y/N!!" Cried Leo, getting up hurriedly and finding him.
***
It'd been 10 minutes since Leondre had dropped your hamster, you were both frantically searching for Nibbles, but there was no hope.
You bursted out crying and fell to the floor.
"L-le-o," you whimpered. "He's gone."
"Y/N you don't even know how sorry I am," he whispered, sitting down next to you and pulling you in for a hug. "I'll get you a new one, and you can hate me for the rest of your life! Just please forgive me! I'm sorry I can't do anything right."
You couldn't even speak to him.
"Y/N please say something?" He said, looking down at the floor. "Please."
You ignored him and carried on crying.
After a few moments, you heard him get up, and leave the room.
Then all of a sudden there was a loud scream.
"Y/N, Y/N!!!" Leondre yelled from the hallway.
"What?" You said, getting up in alarm.
"ITS NIBBLES! HES ALIVE!!" He shouted with delight.
"What, where?" You asked, coming through the door.
There stood Leo with a tiny fluff ball in his hands.
Nibbles.
"OMG LEO YOU FOUND HIM!!" You screamed with joy, hugging Leo so tightly but avoiding crushing Nibbles. You carefully took him out of Leo's hands and placed him back in his cage safely.
Thank god.
"Leo, I don't even know how to thank you!!" You said, smiling.
"Well there is one thing.." He said, shyly.
"And what would that be?" You asked, folding your arms.
"This," he said, as he leant down to kiss you.
Fireworks exploded on your stomach and your heart raced so fast, you swore it had stopped beating all together.
You had been friend-zoned for years with Leondre, and you never thought he felt the same about you. Until now.
Eventually you pulled back and stood in shock.
"I love you Y/N, more than a best friend," he said, looking into your eyes.
"Me too," you whispered, grinning.
You were left staring at him until his phone buzzed. He quickly took it out and checked it.
"Y/N I gotta go, emergency at home," he sighed, pulling away.
"Okay, see you tomorrow!" You smiled.
"I love you!" He said, kissing you once more before leaving the house.
Perfect.
