Scar was going to tell mumbo he is hotguy, he had only told Grian so far and he told scar that mumbo is a bit crazy about hotguy
So he was a bit more nervous to tell mumbo then he was telling Grian, not only did he think “crazy” ment mumbo hated hotguy but that mumbo wouldn’t want to be friends anymore
He got to mumbos apartment and was greeted with a very happy mumbo, scar went a little red in the cheeks looking up at mumbo so happy
Mumbo let scar in
“So scar what do you want to watch?”
“Uh I don’t know”
“So you don’t want some Star Wars?”
“Mmm maybe not today”
Mumbo paused and squinted at scar
“suspicious”
When they got to the lounge room Mumbo closed the blinds a bit and put on a movie for them to watch, scar wasn’t paying attention to it he didn’t even know what movie it was,
he could only think of the different ways mumbo can react to scar saying he’s hotguy
It only felt like a few minutes but it was actually an hour before he was scared out of thought by mumbo scaring him
“Mate you were zoned out for the whole movie”
“Wait what!”
“Yeah… anything on your mind?”
Scar decided just to rip the bandaid off and tell him
“I’m … I’m ga- I mean hotguy”
“Yeah and I have a moustac- wait what…”
Mumbo and scar just looked at each other before mumbo ran to his room, scar did not except mumbo to react like this… but then he heard papers ripping and banging, scar went up to mumbos door and opened it a little bit
Mumbo was ripping what looked like posters and… note books? Mumbo looked at scar and hid the note book he was trying to rip behind his back
“Mumbo what’s… what is this reaction to me telling you I’m a super hero?”
“Well I just hade the urge to clean my room,you know just in case you want to come in with me”
Scars mind went to wired places when mumbo said that
“Uhhhhh… jeez mumbo” scar said turning slightly red
“Oh pfft get your head out the gutter scar, hotguy, old buddy ol pal, a super hero I totally feel normal about”
Mumbo looked at his bed trying to not make eye contact but then ran to sit on his bed to cover a pillow or something
Mumbo is now looking at scar in a awkward way as scar looks at the ground trying not to think about how mumbo definitely is trying to hide a body pillow
Scar picks up the two peace’s of paper he was standing on,one of them being a poster of himself as hot guy ,on the other is something written
“Mumbo blushed as hot guy saved him from the kidna… mumbo?”
Mumbo grabbed the peace of paper out of scars hand
“Wow how did that get hear hehe”
Mumbo was now bright red probably from embarrassment
“Mumbo, do you have a crush on me in a superhero costume?”
Mumbo was now bright as a tomato as he put his hand on the back of his neck
“Maybe, kinda, yeah”
Scar dropped the ripped poster, scar goes bright red
“I uhhhh”
“Sorry, I was trying to get rid of my crush on you and then got really obsessed with hotguy”
“Do- do you still have that crush on me?”
“Well guess I do, I’m still very nervous around you sometimes ”
Scar blushed and went to go hold mumbos face, mumbo just froze and scar could feel mumbos face get warmer
Scar finally decided to kissed him,it was like seeing the most beautiful sunset in the world,scar could feel his heart setting off fireworks, it’s only when he pulled away did he realise that was very impulsive of him
He looked at mumbo how who just frozen there flustered, his mouth opening and closing like a fish trying to speak.
“I- sorry I probably shouldn’t have done that”
“No that was… nice”
They looked at each other before both realising what just happened
“I uhh -yeah I- lets couch”
“Yep let’s uhhh more movie”
“Uh Star Wars?”
“Yes I need something to distract me”
They ended up falling asleep cuddling because mumbo wanted to give scar an apology hug for him witnessing his hotguy obsession.
