Lines
The house was usually quiet but she was enjoying it. Her son was visiting his friend for the day, which meant she could afford to spare some time for herself in the peace and quiet. She sat on her brown leather couch with her legs tucked under her and her body leaning on the arm of the couch. In her hands was a manga she had been saving for a time like this when she finally had some much needed free time. As she read her story in silence she reveled in her moment alone.
“Hey, Babe!”
Well almost alone.
“What do you want?” She asked her husband as he came into the living room and took a seat right beside her. She tried not to sound too annoyed by his presence, but he was interrupting a good part of her manga. She reluctantly tore her gaze away from the book and glanced over at the man.
His deep blue eyes looked back at her expectantly and sparkled with mischief. His smirk being another tell that he was up to something. “So…” he started as he swung his arm over her shoulders. “Have you ever kissed anyone before?”
The purple-haired girl was not amused. She looked back at him with disinterested eyes and a bored frown. “That joke wasn’t funny on our wedding night and it’s not funny now.”
Rin’s confident act quickly deflated. “Ah come on, it’s such a good line though!”
Izumo rolled her eyes at his whining. “You don’t have a good line.” She retorted.
“I do too have good lines!” He quickly huffed, pulling his arm back. “Remember what I said to you on our first date?”
There was a brief moment of silence as Izumo gave it some thought. “Your eyes are as red as my heart?” She asked in a questioning tone.
“Yeah!” Rin exclaimed. “Admit it, you totally fell for that one!”
It was her turn to scuff. “I did not!” She bit back, this time fully turning toward him to give him her undivided attention. “That line didn’t even make sense!”
“But you kissed me!”
“No, you kissed me!”
The pair looked hotly at each other, arms crossed and brows scrunched together.
“Well, you definitely kissed back.” Rin countered.
Again, Izumo rolled her eyes. “Because it was a good kiss, not a good line.” She explained as if it were obvious.
“Wait…” Rin shifted in his seat, a small smile returning to his face. “You think I’m a good kisser?” He asked hopefully.
“That’s not what I said.”
“But it’s what you implied.”
Izumo gave an exaggerated sigh. “Fine.” She admitted tersely. “You’re a good kisser. Happy?”
The half-demon looked ecstatic. “Very.” He replied as he sat back on the couch looking smug.
The woman gritted her teeth and squeezed the edges of her book. “Is that why you came over here? For validation?”
Her husband smirked at her. “Actually, I was hoping for a kiss.”
She sent him a glare, but it didn’t dissuade him any less. She knew he wouldn’t leave her alone until he got what he wanted. So despite her better judgment, she leaned over and gave him a quick peck on the lips.
Rin returned it gratefully but was surprised that it ended so soon. When he opened his eyes, she was already back to focusing on her manga.
“Aw, man.” He whined again.
“Now what?” Izumo barked back.
Rin looked dejected. “Well I was just hoping since we’re...you know... alone , that we could do more than just...that.”
Izumo regarded him with a small sense of guilt. He was giving her those puppy-dog eyes that begged and pleaded for her attention. But she really wanted to finish her manga…
“Don’t you wanna make out with the best kisser ever?” Rin teased as he wiggled his eyebrows suggestively.
“Ugh.” She relented as she leaned forward again and met his puckered up lips.
Their lips moved in sync for a moment before Rin stopped just for a second to say “See, I’ve got good lines.”
Izumo groaned. “Shut up.” She said before slamming her lips back to his.
