"Are you done yet?"

Tubbo called out to Ranboo.

"Uhh, yeah! Just a minute!"

He came out of the closet fully dressed.

"Huh, guess it fits me after all huh?"

He looked at Tubbo who was staring at him.

"Tubbo?"

Tubbo couldn't utter a word. Tubbo couldn't help but turn pink. He was always flustered in Ranboo's presence but now he's even more flustered that Ranboo is dressed as a prince. And it makes it worse because he IS a prince.

"H-hot.."

Was all he could say. Ranboo blushed that his friend called him hot.

"Uhm.. Thanks.." he muttered.

Tubbo noticed that he's been staring at Ranboo for too long so shifted his gaze and cleared his throat.

"You.. Look handsome bossman!"

He smiled.

"Thanks Tubbo."

"Well I should get changed as well to see if the suit I picked will fit me!"

Tubbo went in the closet to change.

Ranboo was waiting. Did Tubbo really just call him 'handsome'? No, its just a common compliment.. Ranboo thought to himself. Would there be fireworks this evening? He wants to see the fireworks. It'll be so pretty.

"Ranboo! What do you think?"

Ranboo was too stunned to speak. Tubbo was looking at him.

He smirked

"What's wrong bossman?"

Tubbo leaned closer to his face.

"T-Tubbo..."

Tubbo realized, he immediately backed up.

"AAAH- I'M SO SORRY!"

Tubbo covered his face out of embarrassment.

"Its fine, anyway, I like it!"

"You like my outfit?"

"Mhm! Looks cute on you!"

"C-cute?"

"Yeah..?"

"Thanks..."

--
"Wanna see the fireworks later?"

"Nah.. I'm terrified of fireworks.."

"Oh, ok. What do want to do later?"

"I dunno."

"Stargazing?"

"Sure!"

There was comfortable silence between them. They were both laying down on the bed.

"Y'know Tubbo? You look cute.."

"Aww, thanks bossman! You look cute too..!"

...

"Tubbo?"

"Yeah?"

"We're just friends, right?"

"..."

"..."

"Yeah... I guess.."

Tubbo muttered sounding disappointed and sad.

"Okay..."

Now there was tense silence.. It was awkward and tense.

Tubbo moved closer to him and hugged him.

"Can I get cuddles?"

"Sure.. Come here.."

Back to the comfortable silence. The two were cuddling with each other.

Tubbo looked at Ranboo and kissed the tip of his nose like a little 'boop'.

"Wha-"

Tubbo laughed for a bit.

"You look so red!"

"W-well of course I'd look red! You kissed me.."

"Its a big deal to you?"

"Well... Yeah..."

"Sorry.. I didn't know..."

Tubbo backed away a bit.

"Not like that- its just- I- I don't know.."

"Its fine.. I thought I wouldn't expect any reactions from you.."

"...."

"I'm sorry.."

Tubbo got up and left the room.

"Tubbo wait- damn it!"

Ranboo punched the mattress.

--

Tubbo was getting ready for the night. He was so excited that he feels like he's about to explode.

"Boo! Are you ready?"

He came in the room.

"Hey Tubbo, I-"

Tubbo put a finger on his lips to shush him.

"Its fine, it wasn't a big deal anyway. So its alright, okay?"

"M'kay.."

"Now, get ready because we are going somewhere later."

"Okay. I'll get ready."

Hey-o! Happy New Years Eve everyone! Happy 2022! May you all have a nice new year!

Remember, don't forget to eat, drink and be happy!
