I see a sparkle... I guess that means you're feeling better?

[ His tone is teasing, but the look on his face could only be known as relieved. ]

[oathkeeper]

[Sora nods sleepily.] Hmmhm, sorry for waking you up.

[At least Squall's sleeping habits seem to be a little better these days but he does feel bad for waking him.]

[innermonologues]

Mmm, don't be. I probably needed to wake up at some point.

[ He let out a tiny yawn and moved to tug Sora closer to his chest. ]

[oathkeeper]

[It's so rare to see Squall actually enjoying sleep!! For that, Sora nuzzles close to him, lips pressing a quick kiss to his neck before feeling drowsy.]

Nah, sleep in with me.

[innermonologues]

[ Squall made a tiny sound to the kiss. He hated to admit it, but being kissed, being held, just being around Sora in general made his heart flutter in the stupidest of ways. ]

Mmm... I think that van be arranged.

[oathkeeper]

[Squall should tell Sora these things out loud, Sora would eat it all up.]

Can you manage to stay in bed for that long? [A sleepy laugh.]

[innermonologues]

[ Squall snorted softly at that and leaned down a bit to kiss the top of his head. ]

I don't have a choice, you've left me completely powerless.

[oathkeeper]

[Sora squirms.]

That makes me want to challenge you to staying in bed for a whole day.

[innermonologues]

I feel like that might be a harder challenge on you. Seeing as how you're always out and about.

[ He reached down to cup Sora's cheek with a warm smile on his face. ]

You have so much energy, something I really do wonder if you power this island all on your own. It must be a constant battle between your positivity and my negativity, huh?

[oathkeeper]

Yup. I'm secretly an arehei. Don't tell anyone.

[Sora looks up at Squall and leans his head into the touch. He can't help but chuckle.]

Negative? You say while you're smiling at me... [Which he likes.] I dunno, Squall. You're a lot less grumpy these days. I still remember when I first met you, making ice all over the place. That hasn't happened for a while.

[innermonologues]

[ Squall's cheeks turned a faint shade of pink. he turned his head to the side. ]

You melted down the icy wall of hatred, so... I guess I have you to thank that I'm not getting frostbite anymore.

[oathkeeper]

[His smile gets bigger. He nuzzles his nose gently against Squall's cheek.]

I'm pretty proud of you, did you know that?

[innermonologues]

Proud...? Why would you be proud of me?

[oathkeeper]

Because you have changed a lot since you first came here. You're really not as negative as you think you are, dummy. You've got friends that care about you and you care about them. You don't act like you're all alone.

Still a little bad at saying what you mean sometimes, but it's gotten a lot better... [He gives a teasing smile.]

[innermonologues]

Maybe I just don't want to give you the satisfaction of hearing some of those things. Because I know you'll get that grin on your face and you'll start to vibrate and sparkle.

[ He let out a tiny huff, but turned to look at Sora again. ]

But with that being said... I do... like it when you you show your excitement... even over the littlest of things. It's cute...

[oathkeeper]

What- Squall!

[Sora's turn to blush as he looks down. Some little red sparks bounce off the tips of his ears.]

When you're happy, I'm happy, okay...

[innermonologues]

Then I guess in a way, I contribute to your perky nature... since being around you always makes me happy.

[oathkeeper]

Heh. You're cute too, Squall. [Some more red sparks...!]

[innermonologues]

Cute? [ He let out another huff and pinched his cheek playfully. ]

What part about me is cute?

[oathkeeper]

Ack--! [Sora fails and swats at Squall's fingers.]

When you say things like that, Squall!!

[innermonologues]

The only cute one here is you.

[ He huffs loudly and goes to try and tickle Sora's sides. ]

[oathkeeper]

Heheh-Ahh!

[Sora flails under those fingers. So much for feeling drowsy, tickling wakes him right up. He tries to grab at Squall's fingers.]

Nooo!

[innermonologues]

Noooo? Nooo what, Sora?


[ Sorry, but Squall feels like being a little bratty, so he keeps tickling his sides a little while longer. ]

[oathkeeper]

[SQUALL THAT'S RUDE]

Stop that!! No tickling!

[Squall knows he hates tickling, and yet!!

Well, Sora's gonna start wrestling Squall, fighting his fingers and then rolling on top of him. Stop tickling!]

[innermonologues]

[ It's been a while since he's gotten into one of these silly wrestling matches with Sora, and for some reason every time they do it just puts a smile on Squall's face. He gives Sora a gentle playful headbutt as he fights to roll back on top. ]

What are you going yo do to stop me?
