Chapter Text
Geno looked at the nothingness outside their windows. His mind lost in the inner turmoil that was his existence.
Reaper was mostly a silent partner. One that he had known for some time now.
In the outside Reaper could seem like a distant cold and much of an asshole monster. And he could be. If he had to.
Detached from everything and everyone.
Not caring a single ounce.
Taping on the screen of his phone. Lost to the world.
But he wasn't like that. Not with him at least. Never with him. And for the most part Geno was grateful for the silence. The space, while not empty was total freedom to do as he wanted.
To feel close to him while having a time for himself.
On times like this Geno liked to look at Reaper. The small teasing smile on his teeth, the practiced and rhythmic tap, the carefree pose...
“You know, we been together for a while” Reaper said abruptly putting his phone on the counter and leaving the chair walking towards him “We've know each other for a while now, and I trust you more than any other monster around...”
Geno frowned.
Reaper was never one to interrupt their peaceful calmness, not without a good reason at least. And this time his partner looked dead serious.
He smiled at his own joke. Even now his jokes were still to die for.
“...And I been thinking that it's time to take a step forward in this relationship”
“What...?” He asked looking at Reaper going down on one knee in front of him with a blank incredulous expression.
Time seemed to slow down as Reaper fumbled a little with his cloak and pulled out a small piece of paper... ?
“Here” Reaper said getting up and placing the small paper on Geno's hands “It's my cellphone password”
Geno looked at the paper cupped in his hands stupidly... blinking a couple of times just staring at it. What in the sweet he-
But he didn't finished.
Abruptly he felt the soft brush of Reaper hand's cupping his cheekbone, closing his sockets the moment he felt the comforting touch of his teeth against his.
The kiss had an air of unreality, as everything was turning out to be in this bizarre thing...
“Lov ya, babe, see you tonight” Reaper whispered placing a last, hurried kiss on his forehead. Caressing the side of his face with infinite care and smiling softly at his bashful expression.
Vanishing from existence the next moment.
Leaving the coldness and silent of his absence for Geno to feel. Biting at his bones. Realizing in total disbelief that Reaper's cellphone, the thing that was almost a part of his partner, always attached to his hand, was still in the counter of the kitchen facing downwards. He looked once more at the piece of paper he was holding tight in his hand. Not believing for a second that any of this could be real.

He clutched the piece of paper against his chest and blushed harder.
