❛❛ I swear to god, if you give me a ‘dick-in-a-box’ for Christmas again- ❜❜
“I can’t! My dick’s broken!” Lui drunkenly blurted out, louder than he’d anticipated. He’d shown up to Bijou’s ‘welcome back’ party, present in tow for her and everything, even though he was still pretty pissed at her for just vanishing for a whole semester. Maybe she was right, though; maybe he needed to get over himself and not take it so personally. That was why he was here, that was why he was totally hammered -- because he didn’t know how to deal with emotions in a normal way, but he really, really wanted his friend back. Especially right now, when stuff was confusing and he had no idea how to deal with emotions without someone like Bij telling him what to do.
He hadn’t meant to tell her like that, though. He saw the way her eyebrows arched at his statement, and her nails dug into the skin of his arm as she dragged him away to a quieter place, hissing “What do you mean, your dick’s broken?”
That probably hadn’t been the best way to say it; a sober him might have gotten that she was concerned about the fact that maybe his statement meant a disease or something. After all, she’d totally touched that dick before, she could have been worried about it affecting her, too. But as Lui started to ramble, about how the only disease he’d caught were feelings and he didn’t know what to do with them and how he couldn’t even get it up for other girls anymore because of his heart boner, he realized that Bijou was shaking with silent laughter. “It’s not funny!” he protested, his voice whinier than he was used to it sounding. “I’m not supposed to catch feelings, I don’t know what to do with feelings!” he insisted as he felt Bij wrap him up in a hug, a feeling he didn’t even realize how much he’d been missing.
“Oh poor, stupid Lui,” she said, and Lui realized then that at least one part of the night had been successful -- her voice didn’t sound venomous talking to him anymore, it was back to fond and amused by his predicament. “Let me tell you what you’re going to do about this...”
