Valentines Treats- YouXDarkleer

(Note; this is, in a way, a continuation of the YouXEquius story from the end of it) 

--No one....Oh...Right..You didn't have a matesprit....Well, you DID..But it didn't end well......So who knocked on your door...? Looking down you saw that you had mail, regular stuff....Oops... With a sigh you picked it up, before re-entering your [house/hive]. Welp...Guess you were spending the day alone with movies and junk food...Again.

-------Later that Night--------

You sighed as you got off your couch to get more--

KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK

Now who was that...? You put down your bowl to walk over and opened to the door and opened it to see-

":33 The might huntrrress grrrreats her furriend..!" Disciple's voice chimed before you were tackle-pounce hug. You steadied yourself by grasping onto the doorway's frame.

"Uhm...H-hi Disciple....What're you doing here...?" The Disciple pulled back from the hug, a biiiiig grin on her face.

":33 Mew see, I have been asked by a furrrriend to be a match-makerrrrr~" 

"O-Oh...?" Oh dear lord, you could tell where this was going....

"X33 Yes...! And, the might huntrrrress was wonderrrring, purrrrhaps, if mew could be the blind date...!" 

"Uhm...Geez, Disciple I--"

"Oh purrrrrease [Name]...? Purrretty purrreeeeease..?" Disciple was now begging, pouting as she gasped your shoulders. "Just this one time, and mew don't have to do it efurrrr again..!" 

......

Your sigh was all the feline girl needed before she gave a delighted squeal. "Oh thank mew [Name]..! Thank mew sooooo much...!" 

"Yeah yeah....Just...Tell me when and where I should go...." 

":33 Purrrfect...! And mew won't rrregret it..! I purrromise..!" 

----------

You sighed as you walked into the Vegetarian restaurant the day AFTER Valentines Day...Talk about romantic, Disciple....

All around there was foliage, pictures of animals, especially horses....

"Hello [M'am/Sir], may I help you...?" The Hostess asked you as you stepped forward, wearing a semi-formal attire. 

"Oh, uhm...Yes, I am supposed to uhhh...Meet someone here..." The Hostess looked at her records at this, before smiling as she started walking.

"Then please, follow me..!" The Hostess' cheery personality annoyed you a bit, yet you still followed her. 

After walking passed a few hippies, some junkies, a few people who were ACTUALLY professionals...Before the perky girl pointed to a booth in the far back, where you saw a large figure sitting. 

"That'll be your guy, have fun..!" your eyes remained for a moment on the waitress, still trying to figure out just HOW people can remain so perky in this job.....Before sighing and walking over to your date for the evening. 

Once you were about five feet from the booth, the man turned at the sound of new footsteps, and stood to properly greet you...Even though the two of you had met during one of the Disciple's singles parties....

"8=O Oh....Hello, [Name].." Darkleer greeted you, a small embarrassed smile on his face. Dear lord this was embarrassing....

Even more so since, after one of those parties.....He had become rather...Flushed for you. He had hounded Disciple and others for more information about you, and...Well, he truly was flushed. 

"Hi Darkleer." you blushed at him in return, you also had a...Flushed feeling for him as well. You may or may not have....Asked a few people about him....Oops. 

The Zahhak held out his hand for you to shake, which you did whilst admiring his attire for the evening. 

He was wearing a gentle dark blue polo shirt, black slacks, black shoes, and black gloves. All of which were probably made by the Dolorosa.  

The two of you sat down across from each other, both of you with smiles on your faces. This...Might just work. 

-----a little later-----

You and Darkleer were now talking over your dinners and cups of wine, both of you having decided to share a bottle. When you both got a bit antsy or too nervous, just a small sip would do. 

After all, neither of you were gonna drink too heavy tonight. Who knows WHAT you might say...? 

"8X3 If I may say [Name], I am glad that the Disciple reigned in you to be my date on the evening." Darkleer confessed to you, making you blush a bit while swirling your cup. 

"As am I, Darklee--"

"8XI Please, if I may ask...Would you please call me Horuss...?" Darkleer gave a nervous sip to his wine. " 8XI It is uhm...My real name..." 

You blushed a bit more at this, sipping your own cup. "I...Uhm...S-sure..!" 

Darkleer's smile seemed to grow at this, before gently picking up your hand, and kissing the top of it. "8 Thank you, my dear [Name]." 

doki doki 

SHUT UP KOKORO. 

"I-It's no problem Dar--Horuss...It's my pleasure." Darkleer wanted to say something else, however your perky waitress came over. She picked up and organized the empty plates, and looked between you and your date.

"Hi..! Can I get you two anything for dessert...?" You were about to decline, when the Zahhak answered. 

"8=/ Could we have a brownie a la mode for two..?" 

"Very good choice sir, I'll get that for you two as soon as possible..!" The waitress soon left, allowing you to look at Darkleer.

"H-Horuss you didn't have too--" 

"8 I know, but I wanted to."....You giggled at this, gently intertwining your fingers with his. 

"Well I...Suppose I can't stop that."

"8X3 No you can't."

----------

You giggled as Darkleer held out a spoonful filled with vanilla ice cream and milk chocolate brownie. 

"8 Aaaaaaaah~" Okay, maaaaaaybe he had a bit too much wine...But you weren't really complaining.

"Aaaah~" You responded, happily eating the spoonful. You and Darkleer happily laughed with one another. It was nice that, even for a moment, he trusted you enough to the point where he didn't have to put up his STRONG or non-100d front. You two were just...Enjoying each other. 
 
"8XI I uhm...Have something I must take off my back, [Name]..." 

"O...Oh..?"

"8xO Oh, um..And, not in a 100d way either..." That made you relax a bit... "8XI I uhm...You see I....I have felt....Uhm...That you have reigned in my b100d pumper...." 

Your face was completely flushed now.

"8 I uh...Understand if you do not have any STRONG feelings for me..."

"N-No..! No..I...I do...Very, very strong in fact I..." Darkleer's face was a dark blue... "I would even say that I'm...I'm flushed for you, Horuss..."  

....
....
....

"8XO O...Oh my..." 

"Y-Yeah...." 

"8XI...I.....I--"

"Here's your check...!" STUPID WAITRESSES!!! 

----------

You and Darkleer hadn't talk since that odd moment when the Waitress had interrupted you two, and right now your front door was right in front of you.

"8=X So...Uhm..."

"Hm--" You were cut off when Darkleer carefully pressed his lips to yours, his breathing was nervous and unsure....However it soon hitched when you slid your arms around his neck, deepening the kiss. His hands carefully lingered over you delicate waist, pressing you against him. 

However the need for air overcame the need for passion, making you both break from each other gasping for sweet yet idiotic oxygen. 

"8XO I...Uhm...Perhaps we should...Continue this round-up inside..." 

"You read my mind, Executioner."  

----------

Bonus 1

You cuddled into Horuss' strong arms, a smile on your face as you felt his heartbeat. 

"8=3 So..Matesprits...?" 

"You bet your hoofbeasts on it." a grin came over the male's face, before he kissed your forehead. 

"8 Happy belated Flushed Feelings day, [Name]." 

"Yes it is." 

----------

Bonus 2

"8=? How do you think Darkleer is doing...?" Horuss asked his dancestor as the two worked on some machines. 

"I presume and hope he isn't horsing around..." 

"8 Like you when you tried to use wooden pencils...?" 

...
...
...

"I loath you. I loath you so. Flipping. Much."

"8=O Oh F*ddlesticks, someone call the troll cops Terezi and Sollux, we have a bad donkey in here." 

"Oh ha ha ha..."
