Coiny laughs as he wins for the 30th time a row. The TV screen showed 1st on his half and 2nd on Snowball’s. Snowball, groaning, throws his controller to the ground. “OH MY FLAKE COINY STOP CHOOSING MARIO!” Snowball yells at Coiny. Who just laughs even harder.
“What are you jealous? Because I’m better at this game?” Coiny teases, giggling in between his sentences. Snowball growls at him before sitting back down, sighing. Rubbing his temples. “Spare meeee!” Snowball whines.
Coiny smirks. “You finally learn you can’t beat me? And you need me to go easy on you?” Snowball just looks away, a small tint of blush on his face. Yeah, he figured that out. And he hated that fact. He playfully punches Coiny’s shoulder.
Coiny chuckles, wrapping his arm around Snowball. “Alright, alright I’ll spare you!” Snowball grumbles but Coiny could see the smile he had. Snowball grabbed the controller back from the ground.
Starting up another game, Coiny is immediately in the lead. Snowball growls, grabbing the magic cube thingies, (I actually have no idea what they are) he earns a bullet. Smiling, he waits until he is right next to Coiny before using the item.
Coiny chuckles. He missed the cube on purpose. He said he was going to go easy on Snowball and he’s sticking to his word! As they played, Coiny decided to start up a conversation between them.
“Sooo! How’s the kid, Grassy? I heard you are kind of like his brother or something.” Coiny asks, looking at Snowball.
“Grassy’s been great though he’s not a kid. Just so ya know. I don’t really think of him as like my found family thing. That’s sappy as hell, he’s like a close friend. Nothing else really. He’s really strong. That’s cool.” Snowball answers, not once looking away from the screen. He was desperate to win.
Coiny giggles at how focused Snowball was. “How’re things with Pin?” Snowball asks. “Nothing too much.” Coiny says. “She’s been getting along with Gaty and Saw! It’s nice to see her make new friends since BFDIA. Haha!” Coiny laughs.
“Doesn’t she dislike that season because of how she acted?”
“Yeah, but sometimes parts of your past will come up whether you like it or not, so you just have to deal with it. Or something.”
Snowball thinks for a second. “Guess you’re right.” They tapped away on the controllers, noises coming out of them. They pass lap one. Snowball consciously sticks his tongue out from how focused he was.
Coiny smirks as he passes Snowball, crossing the finish line and going into lap two. He just wanted to tease him for a little. Snowball growls which causes Coiny to laugh. Snowball grumbles at him to shut up. Coiny chuckles, using his hand to wipe away a tear.
He lets Snowball pass him again, Snowball smiles. Coiny watches Snowball as he plays the game. He looked kind of cute when he was focused like this. Coiny’s face softened as he watched the usually stoic ball of snow play the game. Studying his face, and the way his tongue stuck out from concentration, the way his eyes kind of squinted. He stopped paying attention to the game. Basically, not even playing anymore.
“Coiny! What are you doing?” Snowball says, looking over at his side of the split screen. Coin had bumped into the railings of the game, most of the NPCs already passed him, he was second to last. They had already finished lap two.
Coiny shook his head. “Huh?” Coiny said, confused. He looks over to his screen and realizes he wasn’t paying attention. He starts playing it again, just barely able to pass the NPCs as they race. He groans as he grabs a cube, earning a mushroom which he uses to catch up to Snowball.
“Now you’re trying to beat me?” Snowball says, looking at him with a mean pout.
“Noooo!” Coiny says, smiling innocently.
“Really Coiny?”
“I just thought it would be funny?”
“Coiny.”
“Okay I’m sorryyy I’ll let you win.” Coiny says, purposefully bumping into something so he would slow down as Snowball gets close to winning the race. He passes the finish line as 1st and Coiny does 2nd. Snowball pumps a fist into the air, smiling as he finally wins.
“You should be glad I let you win!” Coiny said, smirking. Snowball glares at him with a frown. “What? It’s true!”
Snowball looks away, pouting. Coiny sighs. And wraps his hand around his shoulder. “Sorry, okay? You did great.”
Snowball looks at him before rolling his eyes. “Hey Coiny.” Snowball says.
“Yeah?” Coiny replies, looking back at the screen.
“What distracted you during the game? You were, like, staring at me.” Snowball questioned, an eyebrow raised to emphasize his confusion.
Coiny started sweating. Should he tell him that it was because he looked pretty or something else? “Uhh.. It was because you looked cute.” Too late his mouth reacted faster. Snowball stared at him, blushing a small tint of red.
“Uhhhh I didn’t.. Uh That’s not wha-” Coiny stuttered, trying to explain his wording, blushing.
“Really..?” Snowball seemed hesitant and a little excited. He looked away in embarrassment from how excited he sounded. Coiny looked at him, hearing the small excitement behind his words.
“I- Y-yeah..” Coiny smiled, looking away as well. Okay. This was incredibly awkward. What should Coiny say?
“Y-you think I’m cute..?” Snowball asked, making Coiny look at him. Coiny nodded hesitantly. Snowball scooted a little closer to him. “I-I think you’re.. Um cute too..” Snowball blushed heavily before huffing and looked away. Flake, he felt so embarrassed and happy and nervous and anxious and so stupid rolled up in a ramble.
Coiny put a hand on Snowball’s cheek making him look at him. He was blushing harshly. He got closer to Snowball and kissed him on the lips. Snowball’s eyes widened as Coiny kissed him. They parted. Coiny smiled nervously.
“W-was that okay?” Coiny asked.
Snowball looked at him. He stuttered horribly. “U-uh um I- uh.” He couldn’t speak, his face turned a bright red. He covered his face. His heart was beating fast, he felt dizzy, sometimes he hated this feeling but right now it felt like the best thing ever.
He nodded. Coiny chuckled as he watched Snowball get so flustered over a little kiss. He leaned his body against Snowball, nuzzling him. Snowball froze up then relaxed, shakingly and hesitantly putting his arm around Coiny’s shoulder. Coiny smiles and wraps both his arms around Snowball.
“Does this.. Uh make us.. Um boyfriends?” Snowball asked.
Coiny looked at him and nodded. “Yeah! I guess you can say that!” He kissed Snowball’s cheek and kept nuzzling his body against Snowball.
Snowball smiled shakingly, this was the best day of his life. And it was the start of a beautiful new relationship. (That I swear will last forever and nothing will ever happen to them.)
