“G-Gahahaming!” Chongyun laughed, desperately tugging at Gaming’s wrists in a vain attempt to push them away from his sides, to stop those nimble fingers from tickling his unprepared body. “S-stohohop! Ahahah, I wahah- ahaha, w-wasn’t reheheady!”
Gaming sighed softly, tilting his head as he stared into Chongyun’s laughing face. Was it really tickling that bad or was he just… overreacting? “Come on, I’m not even doing it that hard, Yunyun,” he cooed and pouted slightly. “Didn’t you say I could tickle you?”
Chongyun shook his head left and right, pressing his eyes shut while his cheeks slowly turned pink. “B-but- ahAHAha, w-wahahait, plehehease!” He giggled, his feet kicking behind the other and even hitting Gaming with his heels - by accident, of course. Chongyun could feel each tickle, each poke and each prod against his sides, ribs and tummy. He could also feel how bad they tickled.
Despite his cool and chill nature, Gaming couldn’t help but start to feel a little annoyed. This was their fourth attempt, after all. Just a little bit of tickling, how hard could it be?
Very, it seemed, as he would barely wiggle his fingers against Chongyun’s sides or trace his ribs and the exorcist would already be yielding, asking for a break or for Gaming to stop because “it tickled too much”. Just how sensitive could he be, Gaming wondered.
While it was cute and amusing during the first tries, this whole situation started to take a toll on Gaming’s nerves. Now, back to their current try, he had Chongyun begging as if his life was on the line. “Plehehehease!” He pleaded while scrunching up his shoulders, as if he was about to sink on his own body.
“It can’t be all that bad, Yunyun,” Gaming cooed, poking random spots around Chongyun’s navel, watching his stomach and body tremble as he laughed, “I doubt you’re even this sensitive.”
“B-but I wahahasn’t reahahady!! Gahahaming, plehehease,” he whined through laughter in a way that made Gaming’s heart skip a beat. Damn it. He really couldn’t go against that.
Sighing, Gaming ended up obliging to Chongyun’s pleas, his fingers slowly coming to a halt until finally stopping. Gaming rested his hands flat against Chongyun’s sides, nearly cupping his waist in his hands. “You’re making this so difficult,” he pouted.
“S-sohohorry,” Chongyun mumbled, his body loosing up and relaxing after another round of tickling - even if it was a short-lived one. As annoying as those breaks could be, Gaming couldn’t deny that seeing Chongyun smile so freely was worth the trouble in the end. “I-I’ll try harder, I swehear.”
“Will you? Really?” Gaming teased, pinching Chongyun’s waist and making him jolt, letting out a high-pitched squeak. Gaming laughed, “alright, let’s do it again.”
Chongyun felt the heat spreading down his neck and up to the tip of his ears. If he began to think too much about how he looked, he would probably overheat and pass out. The exorcist shook his head and took a deep breath. “O-okay,” he nodded, slowly moving his hands up until they were high above his head.
Tugging at the first thing he could reach, Chongyun bit his inner and gathered courage to look at Gaming in his eyes.
“Ready?” Gaming asked with a smirk, holding his hands inches above Chongyun’s body. As the exorcist nodded, Gaming jumped into action, filling the room - once again - with that bright, joyful laughter that he loved to hear.
