?* [Clukr x Garnold] *?

Clukr facepalms with a deep sigh. Garnold obvious isn't this stupid, so at this point, he's realized that he was just playing around and this point. Even so, Clukr himself was just too tired to deal with it right now. "Garnold, just get up." He sighs, dropping his hands back down to his sides. Silence lingers a bit longer, up until Fun Bot randomly breaks said silence. "I don't believe Garnold will be getting up anytime soon." It comments with the usual smile on it's face. At this point, Clukr gives up and plops on the couch with an exhausted sigh. Seeing his exhausted look, Garnold attemps to cheer him up.

"It's kinda lonely on the flooring here, Clukr." He comments, looking over to his silver friend. Hearing his name mentioned, Clukr looks over at Garnold with a raised eyebrow. He glances at him, then back at the floor, and then back over at him.

"...Garnold, I'm not lying on the floor. I have a bed for a reason."

"As do I."

"You really expect me to lay on the floor with you?"

Garnold shrugged. "You tell me." Fun Bot then chimes in the playful banter with a happy grin. "Yay! Lay together!"

'He isn't gonna give it up, is he?' Clukr thinks to himself. After a small debate with himself, he sighs deeply and shakes his head, taking a seat beside Garnold on the floor and lying down with his arms crossed. A silence lingered once again, and trying to keep it from being awkward, Clukr speaks up. "Happy now, Garnold?"

"No, not entirely."

As Clukr beings to question him, Garnold unexpectedly pulls Clukr into his arms. "What?! Garnold!" He attempts to pull away and protest, but Garnold holds onto him tightly. It doesn't take long for him to quiet down and stop struggling. He instead relaxes in Garnold's embrace, hugging onto him tightly. After a comfortable silence, Garnold looks down at him. "You've been working hard Clukr. Why not take a break from time to time?" he asks. Clukr looks up at him, and suddenly, he finds it hard to speak as Garnold gazes into his eyes. "Well..." He flushes nervously and turns away, trying to find his original train of thought.

"...I guess I've just got too much on my plate at the moment to just stop and, 'take a break', as you say." He finally responded after a lingering silence. Garnold tilts his head and responds with a smile. "You do realize that im an investor as well, right? Wouldn't want you falling and collapsing am I right?"

"Yeah. I guess you're right." Clukr sighs, resting  his head against Garnold's chest.

As they lay there, the silence that floated between the two was oddly comforting. For once, Clukr didn't mind just sitting still and doing nothing... like every other time he's held close by his friend. He released a relaxed sigh and hugged a bit tighter onto Garnold, who in response, had returned the comforting squeeze. The silence lingered a bit longer before finally, Garnold spoke up.

"Oh and uhh.. about collapsing, that's why I'm on the floor."

"...What?" Clukr looks up at Garnold confused.

"Yeahhh so..." The golden investor began, a slight tinged of embaressment in his tone. "I was walking into the living room, and then I tripped and fell."

"Garnold, seriously...?"

"Yup... and then that was when I realized our roof had needed inspecting!"

"Or you thought it was the perfect change to play some dumb joke on me, and decided to stay laying there..."

Garnold goes silent for a moment. "Nah. Definitely the roof inspecting."

His statement makes Clukr laugh and nuzzle further into his chest. "You're crazy." He chuckled, his smile widening. He had never felt more glad to have Garnold in his life; in fact, he was possibly the best thing that's ever happened to him. They've been through a lot together since the 4th grade, and seeing each other grow has been inspiring... well, sometimes.

After another silence, Clukr looks up at Garnold, who was already staring down at him. They keep eye contact for a while, and as time ticks, Clukr feels himself slowly move on autopilot. He reached a hand up and caresses Garnold's cheek, and Garnold doesn't pull away or flinch... in fact, he didn't look surprised by the affectionate display at all; he instead pulls Clukr closer, the moment becoming a bit more tense. Still, neither of them had looked away from one another.

"Stop looking at me like that, Clukr."

"...Like what?"

"Like you..." Garnold trails off, trying to find a different way to word what he was gonna say. But after finding no different way to word it, he continues. "Like you want me to kiss you."

Clukr chuckles. "And what if I do?"

The two go silent once again, and finally, after a lot of inner contemplation, Garnold slowly moves in. When their lips meet, it's electrifying... a feeling neither of them knew they'd ever feel. The kiss grows more passionate, and their of the two want to pull away. But after a need for air, Clukr and Garnold pull away from the kiss, both flustered, but still satisfied by the experience.

"Wanna uhh... try that again?" Garnold recommends.

Clukr remains silent for a moment before he chuckles a response. "Fun Bot is still here, Goldie."

"Oh right. My bad..."
