"Damn Prank"

---------------

As the year-long girlfriend of Aone, you were definitely used to his silent antics. You didn't mind it at all, to be honest. You were well-aware of his love for you thought the male rarely expressed it through words.

Why else had you relationship come this far?

Usually, you were the one that kept the one-sided conversation going. After all, you were the type of girl that strove to make everyone around you feel comfortable, one of the many reasons why Aone fell for you.

But today you were feeling evil.

The Silent Treatment Prank, often a weapon used by upset individuals to torment their significant others. You found this stunt rather amusing, especially when their said pairs turn desperate and would go to any lengths just to gain their partner's attention.

Which is why you wanted to see if Aone would start the conversation for once by ignoring him.

It was cruel of you to do this to the silent teddy-bear, no doubt, but at this point in time, curiosity had really gotten the better of you.

That evening, as Aone got home from volleyball practice, he was surprised to see you snuggled up on his couch and watching television. Not even bothering to greet him in his estate. 

Normally you'd message the white-haired athlete before you visited his home, so this was certainly uncalled for. 

Aone took off his shoes before approaching your much smaller frame that nestled upon his cushions. He stood there, completely immobile as he awaited an explanation or even some sort of greeting from you. 

Noticing his presence, you barely pared him a glance before you shifted your attention back to the anime you were watching. You wanted him to know that you'd at least seen him as your scheme played on.

Bewildered at your behavior, Aone raised a brow at your poor excuse of a 'greeting' before shrugging it off as some sort of phase and moving towards his room to change.

"Is it even working?" You mumbled to yourself, doubtful. Seeing as the male barely cared and even was audacious enough to leave you on your own. 

But why were you upset?

Moments later, Aone came back. He was topless but luckily, in a pair of black sweatpants. A towel hung around his neck, leading you to conclude that he had just taken a shower. 

He walked over to the the couch, towards you. You could smell his sent from a few feet away-- the very scent that often lured you to cuddle with him every time. However, you did not wish to break character and continued to act as if he was never there.

Aone sat himself beside you, but again, you didn't bother to acknowledge him even as his eyes lingered on your form for a longer period than needed. At this, he was slightly upset.

With a grown, the gentle giant let out a small huff before moving his gaze towards the television and he familiarized himself with the series. 

Needless to say, the silence was overwhelming even for the introverted male. And inevitably, Aone grew restless and snuck his arm around your upper chest. The feeling of his hands caused you to blush, all the while the male tried puling you to lay against him but you were still playing stubborn and denied his craving. 

'Don't give in... Don't give in...' Your subconsciousness chanted.

Noticing your protests, Aone gave up, refusing to use his strength on you because he was afraid he'd hurt you. Instead, the gentle giant got up from the couch and withdrew into his bedroom. 

You thought he was coming back yet after half an hour of waiting for his appearance, he never did. With that, Aone had surrendered and had left you to watch the show on your own. 

"Aone..." You instinctively called out, lips dropping into a frown.

Oddly enough, you were starting to feel guilty about ignoring the male. Especially with his silent request to cuddle with you previously, I mean-- wasn't that enough for you already? You did manage to get him to initiate it out of his own will.

Just the thought and perception of Aone getting upset all because of a rubbish prank tugged at your heartstrings and a little bit of your humanity was restored. Goddamn, you even got him to turn in for the night.

It was only eight in the evening!

You couldn't have hurt such an adorable cinnamon roll over a harmless prank right?

With haste, you scurried over to Aone's room. Not bothering to knock as you entered it and saw Aone laying atop his bead, his back turned towards you as a broken aura radiated off of him.

There your pride disintegrated and now, all you wanted to do was apologize to Aone and pepper him with all the love and pampering he deserved. 

Your heart had never beaten so fast as you crawled onto the bed, settling on the small yet manageable space left beside Aone. Your nostrils caught his scent and that's what made you snap entirely. Shakily, your hands snaked around Aone whilst your legs went over his. 

Despite being in a weird position you didn't give a damn, you just wanted to hold him and you most definitely wanted him to hold you too.

"Aone..." Hearing him let out a quiet, questioning hum at your call, you finally spoke to him. "I'm sorry." You whimpered, burying your face more into his back. 

For a few moments, Aone didn't react, which added onto your anxiety. That is, he shifted his body so that he was facing you. And when his arms wrapped around you to embrace your body, his warmth seeping into you, you melted.

"I didn't mean to drive you away. In fact, the reason why I was ignoring was that..." You were embarrassed to confess your yearning at first but then eventually blurted it out. "Well, I wanted to see how you'd react. And maybe a part of me really hoped you'd do anything to earn my attention but instead you did the opposite and now I feel really REALLY bad!" You exclaimed, pouting childishly.

You felt Aone's warm hand gently ruffle your hair and the gesture alone gave you the courage to raise your head and look up at him. 

"I didn't intend to make you feel sad, Aone-Chii, I promise." 

Aone only hummed and nodded his head in response t your defense but that was all you needed for reassurance. Your nerves began to settle in Aone's soothing embrace. 

Your plan to make Aone desperate might not have been successful but at least you got extra affectionate cuddles tonight.

"I love you Aone-Ch..." You didn't even get to finish your sentence before you drifted off into a comfortable state of slumber.

A little while later, Aone peeked over at you from his side, seeing your eyes shut permanently for the rest of the night. Soft snores escaping your slight-open lips. 

He guessed your were already sleeping from the signs you gave off, and you looked absolutely adorable. With a blush tainting his face, Aone smiled down as he gave a soft kiss. 

"I love you too, (y/n)."
