Work Text:
ILUNA had just signed off a good 5 hour group stream, mostly consisting of Scarle and Aia making horny jokes (mostly Scarle), Kyo cursing everyone out for being stupid, Maria existing, and Ren and Aster flirting like hell. Aster had made a few comments that Ren could not ignore.
" Aw, fuck me." Ren said as he died for 13th time in a row.
"Is that a request or demand?" Aster chuckled. "
"NAWWW DAS CRAZYYY. Bro's out here getting steamy on stream!" Kyo yelled as the rest of ILUNA giggled.
Ren had used multiple tactics to kill off Aster before finally offing the little cunt.
"Ngh~ Harder." Aster said. "
"AYO!?" Scarle yelled as she began cackling. Ren sat in his chair and blushed as Aster laughed off the whole situation.
Aster might have thought of everything as a joke, but Ren and his dick did not take it as such. He went to his bathroom to jerk off to relieve some of that tension Aster had built up. He didn't even know why he felt so strongly about his colleague. And the biggest question on his mind was, did Aster even feel the same? Was he just hopelessly delusional? He signed and turned off his computer before going to bed.
"It's obvious he's begging for you."
"I dunno Scarle, maybe he's just being nice."
"Aster, oh my god you are dense. You better grab him before someone else does! That man literally has people drooling and screaming for him, he's valuable."
"You're overexaggerating."
"You're being dumb."
"Hush and go to bed, it's 2 am."
"Fine, fine. But if I don't hear that you've sucked him off or something, I'm gonna be pissed."
"Scarle, oh my god!" Aster blushed and hung up on his friend. Even the idea of getting close a monster cock like that made him tremble. But then again, all the flirting and teasing was purely fan service... Right?
Ren woke up to his phone ringing. At 8 am, what the fuck? He checked his phone then it all made sense. Of course Aster was up bright and early.
"Hey Ren!"
"Hey." Ren forgot how deep his voice was in the morning. Good thing he couldn't hear Aster gawking on the other side.
"Damn, someone just woke up."
"I don't wake up at ungodly hours, you know this."
"Boohoo sleepy head, I'm taking you out today." Ren almost did a double take.
"What?" "I found a cool diner we should go to!"
"Just the two of us?"
"Yeah, silly. You up for it? It'd be a shame if I went alone..."
"Yeah, I'll be ready in 10."
"Great! See you soon~" Ren hung up and gave himself a good slap on the forehead. Aster simply teasing the idea of a date made him half-hard and anxious. He rubbed his eyes to wake up before going to his wardrobe to get ready.
Ren arrived to the address Aster had sent him, noticing he was already sitting down at an outside table with two coffees and little treats.
He got out of his car to the star, who greeted the alien with a hug.
"I got you a coffee and some scones!"
"How thoughtful."
"Thank you!" Aster sat back down and invited Ren to do the same.
"So I thought of some more streams we could do together." Ren mentioned, taking that wonderful first sip of his coffee.
"Oh? Do tell."
"Well, we could do a lie detector stream, share some burning secrets with ourselves and the viewers."
"Hmm, I dunno. The pain might be too much for me. I know for a fact there'd be clips of me taken out of context from that."
"That already happens to the both of us when we stream together. The viewers just automatically assume we're secretly dating or something. It's kinda cute to be honest."
"What, the viewers thinking we're dating or us actually dating?"
"Hmm... both." Ren took another sip and looked away, not being able to come back from that embarrassment.
"That'd be nice. But the thought of us dating is pretty much inconceivable, right?"
"Yeah... right."
They continued their conversation, about what exactly? Ren didn't even know. He shut down after the indirect rejection. To Aster, them being together is inconceivable. If Ren were alone, he'd be screaming into his pillow about how stupid he is.
Aster noticed how disconnected from the conversation Ren was. It made him think he did something wrong. He didn't think he did. And Ren wasn't really that sensitive. Was he missing something?
"Ren, are you alright?"
"Oh, I'm fine." He said blankly.
"No, you're not. Your eyes are dull, and you aren't even looking at me when I talk!"
"Aster, it's really nothing don't worry about it. I'm just not in a great mood."
"You seemed fine when you got here!"
"Well I hadn't gotten rejected by who I think, is the love of my life! I didn't hear us being together is inconceivable! You know what, screw this! I love you, Aster Arcadia! But you don't seem to give a flying fuck!" He left after his little tantrum, leaving Aster with tears building up in his eyes.
"Hey what's- oh. Woah."
"Scarle, I royally fucked up." Aster sobbed.
"Well okay, what happened?"
"I took Ren out to eat today and he told me he loved me right after I said us being together was inconceivable. And I really, really hurt him. He won't answer me and I don't know what to do." Aster continued to cry, guilt overflowing him as he recounted the memory.
"Oh don't worry, I'll give him a piece of my mind."
"Thank you..."
"Oh and also."
"Hm..?"
"I told you so."
"Fuck off!" Aster hung up and continued his crying sesh.
"Hello?"
"Ren Zotto you little shit, apologize to Aster!"
"I know, I flipped I'm sorry, Scarle!"
"Don't apologize to me, apologize to Aster! He's crying his guts out cause you're ignoring him."
"Fuck me..."
"Put on your big alien pants, and go say sorry. What he said wasn't the best, but quite frankly he's dense as fuck. And didn't know. So cut him some slack for god's sake!"
"I got it... I'll go."
"Good. I better hear good things after this."
She hung up and Ren rubbed his temples. He figured saying sorry over text wouldn't be the most sincere.
Aster opened his door to find Ren Zotto standing, with a solemn look on his face.
"I'm sorry, Aster. I didn't mean to go off on you like that."
"You're alright... I shouldn't have said us being a couple was inconceivable. Cause I really do like you-"
Ren shut him up by capturing his lips in a sweet kiss. One filled with passion and feeling. Aster wrapped his arms around Ren's neck, begging for more. Ren pulled away and shut the door behind them. Ren picked up Aster bridal style and carried him to the couch. He sat down, his star in his arms, peppering sweet kisses all over his face.
"I love you so much, Aster."
"I love you too, Ren."
"HAH, I KNEW IT." Scarle yelled.
"Oh please shut up." Aster buried his face in Ren's chest, while Kyo almost puked.
