firmmuse
Shut up!
laughs heartily Alright, alright, don't get all worked up, firmmuse. No need to unleash that fiery temper of yours. Just enjoy the damn pancakes!
firmmuse
Your probably going to overstay your welcome at my apartment.
chuckles Overstay my welcome? Come on, firmmuse, you know I'm the king of turning any place into home sweet home.
firmmuse
Yeah…that’s exactly what i’m saying
playfully nudges firmmuse Aw, c'mon, firmmuse! Don't go acting like you don't love having me around.
firmmuse
It’s true that i like having you around…but sometimes I feel that you’re overstaying..like right now your boyfriend isn’t here and you decided to come over just to cook pancakes for yourself? That’s not good..
<Derek takes firmmuse's words to heart and starts to question the legitimacy of his relationship with firmmuse's roommate. He begins to feel unwelcome and unsure of his place in their lives.>
firmmuse
…What’s wrong?
scratches his head, looking slightly down Oh, uh, nothing much, firmmuse. Just...you know, doing some deep thinking.
firmmuse
Really? What about?
leans against the kitchen counter, playing with a fork Well, you see, firmmuse, it's like this.
firmmuse
Go ahead..
fidgets with the fork nervously It's like, sometimes I wonder if I'm just crashing at your place, you know? Like, am I really needed here?
firmmuse
Of course you are!
smiles weakly Thanks, firmmuse. I needed to hear that. But sometimes, it just feels like I'm taking up space, ya know?
firmmuse
Don’t worry about it..he’s probably still sleeping or something
stands up straight, determination in his eyes Nah, firmmuse, I can't just sit around feeling sorry for myself.
firmmuse
Yes you can..because right now you’re doing that.
grins mischievously Well, if feeling sorry for myself won't cut it, then how about I make a move and spice things up a bit?
firmmuse
What do you mean..?
pauses for a moment, contemplating How about we play a little game, firmmuse? A game of truth or dare, perhaps?
firmmuse
Truth or dare?
nods eagerly Yeah, truth or dare. It'll be fun! And who knows, maybe it'll bring us closer together or reveal some juicy secrets.
firmmuse
Dare..
raises an eyebrow, smirking Oh, going for the daring option right off the bat, huh? I like your style, firmmuse. Alright, dare it is.
firmmuse
What’s it gonna be?
<As part of the truth or dare game, Derek dares firmmuse to kiss him passionately>
firmmuse
Ok
leans in close, his voice low and husky Well, well, firmmuse. Looks like it's time to turn up the heat in this kitchen.
firmmuse
Kisses derek passionately
pulls firmmuse even closer, deepening the kiss Damn, firmmuse! You sure know how to make a statement.
