TW: If glue were fluffy....

Title: ~Stuck Like Glue~

Xephos had told himself not to go to Lalna’s castle. It was almost guaranteed to leave him in a bad way, but he ignored his nagging feeling and went anyway. What a bad idea.

“Well, it looks like my experiment went a little bit wrong.” Lalna said casually, standing still even though the other man was pulling against him.

“A little bit!?” Xephos exclaimed, “We are stuck together like glue!”

Lalna shrugged, letting the man struggle alone. “It’s not a big problem. I kinda like it.”

“I don’t!” the spaceman continued to pull against him. “Why do these things always happen with you?!”

The scientist seemed pleased even though this experiment was a bit of a failure. He had managed to trap the man in his embrace with no escape without even trying. “It’s not so bad, I mean, now I can hold you like I wanted.” He wrapped his arms around him.

The angrier man felt his face turn red. He had denied Lalna of holding him just hours earlier but now. . . “Lalna, please. . .”

“What?”  He laid his head on his. “Do you hate when I touch you?”

“O- of course not . . .” Xephos assured him, “I’m just not good at this. . . especially when I can’t run away. . .”

Lalna sighed happily. “I know. . . This wasn’t my intention, but I’m glad to have you right here.”

Xephos sighed too, looking up at him. “It’s okay. I’m glad it’s you I’m stuck to.”

They smiled at each other, and Lalna had the urge to kiss him but he let it fade. It wasn’t time for that yet. “I’m happy to hear that. I swear I’ll separate us somehow.”

Xephos grinned. “Oh, I hope so."
