ㅤ aw. it almost makes it sound as though I’M the bad guy. what’s with that, neku? and that certain someone would be WHO? come now, don’t be shy. ㅤ

ㅤ heehee. i knew it. ㅤ

ㅤ actually i was only teasing you, neku. ㅤ

ㅤ ᏞᎬᏀᎬΝᎠᎪᎡᎽ ᎡᎬᎪᏢᎬᎡ. hello, neku. ㅤ

ㅤ it’s been a while, hm? i figured what better time to bother my dear, DEAR partner. ㅤ

ㅤ long time no see! :) ㅤ

ㅤ oh i know how you’d much prefer it to mean something different, dear. ( there he goes. same old joshua, TEASING as always. ) you too, neku. ㅤ

ㅤ ( laughter. quick to leave joshua’s lips upon the sudden retort from neku. ah— in some aspects, he really hadn’t changed— had he? ) how CUTE. ㅤ

ㅤ why so angry, neku? ( of course he was messing around. one thing he absolutely adored to do was tease neku. to get something— ANY sort of reaction out of him. ) just what do you intend to do? i’ve hardly done anything to you right now, after all. ㅤ

ㅤ that might what? go on? surely you’ve not gone back to your introverted ways, dear. speak up, don’t be shy. ㅤ

ㅤ i don’t know. perhaps it’s been a while since i saw a friend, or perhaps it’s just the ever sinking reality of loneliness digging it’s claws into my very flesh reminding me that i truly have no one. probably the first one, really. ㅤ

ㅤ hmm, maybe you’re right. hence why i stated that it was the first issue and not the latter. oh well. ( a shrug. how usually GREAT he was at hiding it all away. ) ㅤ

ㅤ hmm? what was that, neku? i don’t believe i heard you? ㅤ

ㅤ i— ( wow! rendering joshua SPEECHLESS, for once. that was a start. initial shock was soon replaced with a smirk, regardless. nice… maybe he wasn’t lonely after all. ) ㅤ

ㅤ ( sassy huh? wow. neku really HAD changed. even taking everything into consideration, he still though of joshua to be a friend— … joshua leant in, close. a chuckle swift to leave him, a hum following suit before his lips pressed against the other’s in a kiss. ) ㅤ

ㅤ hello. :) ㅤ
