Ruggie wakes up to his fucking phone ringing. The tone sounds weirder than usual, and it's on the wrong side of the bed Fuck!— would it kill Leona to move!? and he has to crawl over Leona to get to it.
"Fat ass." He whispers before answering the call. Leona merely swishes his tail un annoyance. Ah, so he is awake. Asshole. "What?" He puts the phone to his ear.
"Ruggie-shi!?"
"Idia!?" He moves the phone away from his ear— Radish sprout.
Radish sprout!?
"Oh my G— Leona!" He slaps the back of his head, it gets him a low growl. "I don't give a shit! Why the fuck is your boyfriend calling at—" He checks the phone's time. "Two in the fucking morning!"
"We're not!" Comes Idia's voice, tinny from the phone being further from his ear. "Boyfriends! We're not boyfriends!"
"Dude, I don't give a fuck!" He yells to Idia as Leona grumbles.
"Stop it with the hysterics, Ruggie."
"Hysterics!?" Leona snatches his phone from Ruggie's hand. The world must've gone upside down when he was sleeping, because Leona does something never once documented; he leaves his bed and walks to the balcony, where he speaks in hush tones to the phone.
To Idia.
That damned Roblox duo stealer—!
Fuck him!
Fuck him AND his stupid brother too!
He rolls over, angry, and falls back asleep.
Okay... when he wakes up again he's decidedly feeling less hateful, so as he gathers Leona's dirty laundry, he asks him: "What was that about?"
Leona frowns, "What was what?"
"Why did your boyfriend call you at two in the morning?"
A dumb look of confusion, and then Leona's eyes widen in recognition. "I don't think he realized the hour when he called." And he says it in an obnoxiously soft tone.
Ruggie doesn't entirely remember, but he's pretty sure he yelled something about the hour then too. "Didn't I say what time it was?"
Leona nods. "Yeah. He started freaking out about it and I had to calm him the fuck down, so thanks for that." Okay, he's back to being annoying again. "He was calling to tell me about a limited skin he got. From a game he likes."
There's no way. "Holy shit."
"What?" Leona snaps.
"You two are actually boyfriends. Gay boyfriends."
Leona makes a face. "Hasn't even asked me out on a date yet, so no we're not."
Now it's Ruggie who makes a face. "Dude then YOU get to it." Though, ew, wait, "Actually, nevermind—"
"Nah. It's funner to watch him struggle."
Ruggie's ears flatten. Talking to Leona is definitely how you're greeted in Hell.
