After promising to go shopping on the weekend, time seemed to slow down exponentially, as if taunting you. Your first outing with Leona in what felt like forever (it had been a month)! You were so excited that you kinda accidentally made it to the gates about 10 minutes earlier than planned.
“You’re damn near hoppin’ off the walls. You that excited?” Leona commented as he approached you.
You hadn’t even noticed that you were rocking on your heels, “Well, duh. It’s been a while since we’ve been out.”
A frown caught his lips for a moment before he leaned down, pecking your temple. “That’s gonna change, alright?”
“I know.” You were certain Leona would keep his promise.
Shopping for Leona was actually pretty easy. All he really wanted was comfortable furniture to lounge around on and anything else (ie. the decorations) could be left to you, and he didn’t fuss about it.
“At this point, we’re making a glorified fort.” You chuckled, “Not that I’m complaining.”
“So what you’re saying is we should use these big pillows,” He pointed to a comically large orange pillow, “as the floor?”
You plopped down on it. “Hmmm…maybe so? It is pretty comfy!”
“Oh yeah, you look like you’re on the edge of dreamland there.”
You kinda were. There more you laid here, the more you actually considered using these as a floor for his fort—room.
Ping!
Pulling your phone out of your pocket, you gasped, absolutely shocked at what you saw.

It was you. Right now, laying on the pillow. Posted to his Magicam.
You smiled as you stood, “I think we should get at least this one.” You pocketed your phone, then hauled the pillow in the cart with his help.

AYOOOOO
ARE Y’ALL OUT ON A DATE RN
“Welcome back, my dear.” Azul greeted you, but his eyes were on Leona. “I see you’ve brought a guest with you this time.”
Leona didn’t respond to the obvious taunt, he simply pulled out his phone, fingers quickly gliding against the screen.
“Don’t, Ashengrotto.” You warned. “Just get us a table.”
“Why, of course, my dear.” His smile widened (you hated that smile) as he led you.
“And stop calling me ‘dear’ . I’m clearly with my partner.”
“Yes, yes.” He waved you off, gesturing at the table that he had chosen for you. “Here you are.”
The table was in the middle of the lounge. You were sure he wanted everyone to get a good view of Leona ignoring you or something. Well, this would be quite the boring show. At least, that’s what you thought, but then a large, boisterous crowd entered the lounge. You glanced at Leona, who was already looking at you with a grin.
Drinks and a show, how lovely.
“I’m sorry, but we’re currently at full capacity, so if you’d be so kind—” Azul attempted to dissuade the group from coming in any further, but—
“Nah, they’re with me.” Leona spoke up.
Azul didn’t even bother to hide the frown. “And as I said, we’re at full capacity—”
“I’ll rent the whole place out for double what it would normally be worth.”
Watching Azul debate with himself over selling out or withholding his morals was fun.
Of course, he sold out in the end when Leona offered to pay triple the price.

I’m glad to see the two of you dining together in our establishment, @The_Monstro_Lounge_Offical We hope to see the two of you again soon.
Apparently, Leona wasn’t done with the surprises because one day during lunch while you were standing in line with the other first years, he suddenly appeared, gently removing you from the group.
“Oi! What are you doing?” Jack reflexively grabbed your arm. The lunch line was a chaotic mess, and if someone stepped out of line even accidentally, they lost their spot and had to take the walk of shame to the back of the line.
“We’re not eating in here, so let go, pup.” You could have sworn there was a bit of a growl at the end of that sentence (but maybe you were imagining it).
“Oh?” You cut in, easing yourself from Jack. “You cooked for me or somethin’?”
“Ha!” His laugh was sharp, “Nah, you know I can’t cook—since I’m a prince and all. I ordered out.”
Your eyes lit up. “What are we waiting for? Let’s go!”
Of course, the little lunch date was set up in the botanical garden. It looked like he had gotten some help from the fairies that managed it with the set-up, and even to give you two some privacy. You popped a bit of your favorite dish in your mouth, almost tearing up at the burst of flavor.

I am very happy for the two of you! However, if something bad happens, just know that I’ll be there! :)
“Party’s here, but I’m pretty sure you ain’t here—” Ace stopped short, brain short-circuiting at what he was seeing.
And Deuce followed suit. “Quiet as usual— huh? ”
There in the lounging in the lounge was you, Grim and Leona. But that wasn’t the weirdest part. No, the weirdest part was the fact that you were laying on top of Leona (which wasn’t all that weird) and Grim was lying on top of you (once again, not weird), but like Grim was laying on top of you who was laying on top of Leona which was weird.
However, once Grim caught sight of them, he scrambled out of your grasp, which woke both you and Leona up.
“Save me!” He scrambled behind Ace. “They’ve been holding me here hostage for hours now!”
“We’ve literally been asleep for maybe an hour. What are you talking about, Grim?”
“I didn’t ask for a front row seat to all of this! ” He gestured widely at the two of you before jumping onto Ace’s shoulders. “Let’s go! Before they kiss or something!”
“I’m sure they wouldn’t— OH MY GOD—EWWWW! ”
You were caught off guard just as much as Deuce was. You knew Leona was cheeky, but you didn’t expect him to kiss you in front of your friends like that (not that you really minded a kiss from him). He didn’t let you go until the front door slammed shut, and when he did, you knew it was only for a moment.
Oh well, at least you didn’t have an audience anymore.

THIS IS THE GREAT GRIM AND I CAN CONFIRM THAT THEYRE SUPER ANNOYING
“It’s that time again, My King.”
“Time for you to say that you’re tired of me?”
You lightly slapped his arm, earning a chuckle from him. “Of course not.” You cupped his face, making it meet yours that had moved closer. “It’s time for me to remind you that I am so deeply in love with you.”
He closed the distance, capturing your lips. “Right backatcha. I’m actually more in love with you than you are with me.”
“So it’s a contest now?” You kissed him again. “How do we decide a winner?”
“I can think of a few ways”
“Well, the two of you are gonna have to wait until later.” Someone stopped the two of you from going any further.
Leona sighed. “Always coming in at the right moments, aren’tcha Bucchi?”
“ Shishishi… but nah, for real y’all are really gonna have to wait to do all of that later.”
You smirked. “What? Tired of us yet, Ruggie?”
“I wanna say, yeah, but the pay is too good, so I’ll just smile and nod.” He did neither.
“Alright,” Leona straighten himself then pulled you into his lap. “Let’s get this over with.”
“‘Course the two of you are gonna be difficult till the very end.” Ruggie shook his head, but begun his repot nonetheless, not like he could do anything anyway.
The two of you wouldn’t listen to anyone, but each other, at this point.
Now and forever.
