Work Text:
Gepard decides to visit his sister at her workshop then he sees Sampo and Sampo also sees him, they look at each other for a while before Sampo runs. Gepard chases him until he cornered him. "You have nowhere else to go, Koski, I won't let you go like last time." "Woah there, captain, talk about being possessive, is that your way of confessing?" Sampo teased Gepard making him flustered.
"W-what?! I'm not confessing, I'm going to arrest you!" "Then why are you blushing?" Sampo teased him again. "I'm not blushing, i-it's just hot in here."
'Welp, guess the fun's over' Sampo slowly reached for his back pocket and Gepard got into his stance. "Don't do anything stupid, Koski!" "You know, Geppie, I don't want to use this on you. But I have no choice if I don't want to get caught." Sampo took out a bomb and threw it towards Gepard.
The bomb exploded causing smoke all over the place and Gepard inhaled some of it then started coughing. "Bye, Geppie!" Gepard saw Sampo running away and for some reason he looked... Majestic. Gepard shook his head and tried to chase Sampo but he lost him. He wanted to look for him but he's so exhausted that he went back to his apartment and sleep.
Gepard woke up the next day and did a little patrol around the area and for some reason, he was hoping to see Koski and he was disappointed when he finished his little patrol. Sure, he wants to see Koski everyday but to capture him, however, this time is different, it feels like he wants to see Koski for him to mesmerize. Gepard went to his office to finish the papers on his table.
Days passed and he was done with all the papers on his desk, he was so drained and exhausted. He went to a nearby coffee shop and sat down on a nearby chair. Time passed and as he was about to finish his coffee, he saw Koski from afar, he stood up and ran towards him. They ran around for hours until Koski is cornered once again. "I won't *pant* let you go, Koski! *Pant*" then Gepard passed out.
Hours later, he woke up in what seems to be a clinic. He sat up and felt something move next to him, he looked at it and saw Koski sleeping. He ran his fingers through his hair and it's fluffy. Natasha walked towards him and asked how he was doing. "I'm fine, thank you, Natasha, did Koski bring me here?" Natasha nodded. "How is he?" "He's fine, he's just tired. You're not going to arrest him are you?"
Gepard slowly shakes his head. "I don't think so, I'll let him be for now as long as he's happy." Natasha stares at him smiling. Unbeknownst to them, Sampo is awake and decides to fake sleep. "You love him don't you?" Gepard nodded. "Yea, I always feel butterflies in my stomach whenever I think or see him." Sampo blushed and intertwined his fingers with Gepard. Gepard looks down and sees Sampo awake. "I love you too." "Y-you heard that?!" "From the part when Natasha asked you if you like me."
Natasha left the two to talk and take care of her other patients. "D-do you really love me?" Sampo sits up properly and nodded. "From the time you were chasing me. I was starting to like the attention." They don't know what to say until Sampo breaks the silence and the atmosphere turns gloomy. "This might sound ridiculous to you but I think you only love me because of the bomb that blasted near you." Gepard looks at him confused. "When you cornered me, I used a bomb that whenever someone inhales the smoke, they will fall in love with the person they see first. I hope you're not mad at me and you'll still love me."
Sampo seems to be holding back... Tears? Gepard hugs him. "I knew something was wrong when I couldn't get you out of my mind for days." It's now Sampo's turn to look confused. "Whenever I work I always put my mind into it and put aside the things that don't concern my work, so when I always think of you during work I knew something was wrong. And I love you ever since I first saw you I don't have the guts to tell you since you're a criminal and I'm a captain of the Silvermane guards. I'm mad at you for using that bomb though, what if I saw someone else instead of you? What if we don't end up together?" Gepard and Sampo are now crying. "Let's forget about it for now and thank the Aeons that you're the first person I saw." They wiped their tears and hugged each other as if it were going to be their last hug.
