Aypierre was never exactly shy with his feelings. Showing Slime with diamond blocks and other types of gifts as often as he could, he had so much to give and he had so much he needed. Slime tried to reciprocate but he didn't have much to give, the only thing he could really be was death fodder or someone to test on and Aypierre didn't really like that idea, seeing his joy was enough. Along with the entertainment that having Slimecicle around was.
But that doesn't stop Slime from trying! Him asking Aypierre's friends for what he likes before promptly begging and eventually ending up doing ridiculous shit for it. Sometimes Aypierre already has more than enough of it, but they still say he needs more of it just to see Slime do something silly.
But they've never exactly become official or even confessed to each other. Sure, they have kissed, and have been on many many unofficial dates but they weren't dating each other. But they weren't exactly not saying either? They were exclusive to one another, but they've never talked about it.
That was until now, when Aypierre remembered that they weren't dating. It was surprisingly easy to forget when they were so lovely around each other. But it was finally time to do something about it, he had gotten very tired of not talking about it.
“Slime?”
Aypierre called to him from the couch as Slime looked through the fridge for food. They even shared the same bed and live in the same house but never thought of actually asking the other to go out on a date.
“Yeah?”
Slime called back as he pulled out two orange juice bottles from the fridge, closing the door behind him and heading over to where Aypierre was, handing over a bottle to him.
“Do you wanna date? Be boyfriends and all that?”
Aypierre asked. Slime sitting down next to him, letting his head rest on Aypierre’s shoulder.
“Yeah. I really would like to be your boyfriend Pierre.”
Slime answered. It was surprisingly calm for a confession. Despite that Aypierre's face was red at the confirmation. Slime was his boyfriend now. His heart fluttered at the thought.
They were finally and officially boyfriends.
