(Chester and Geoff)
After yet another light speed tunnel, Chester, Geoff, and Patrick reappeared in front of the construction zone.
"What's worse now?" Geoff asked as he let go of Patrick.
Patrick gave an unsure look and sighed.
"Your hair and eyes are almost black and your teeth are pretty sharp now."
Geoff rolled his eyes.
"Eh," he said while shrugging.
He then turned and walked away while waving at Patrick and Chester did a sillier version of that. Patrick waved back, though he was clearly hesitant and unsure about this.

(Chester and Geoff)
The workday that day was the paperboy one. As Geoff and Chester spent the day on their paper route, though, they couldn't help but enjoy each other's company. They didn't exactly know why, but they felt strangely... great w/ each other? For Chester, he loved being on Geoff, making sure to make his hoodie self as comfortable as he could as he enjoyed the experience. As for Geoff, he actually adored the soft feeling of Chester's warm hoodie self hugging his body. (The inside of Hoodie-Chester felt like soft, plush fur). As for the route itself, thankfully, for one, nothing different happened from the norm, and two, luckily, Lola was preoccupied w/ work, so she couldn't bother the companions. Finally, as for Thread, he simply gorged himself on Chester's blood, as usual. After a long paper day, Geoff and Chester finally got to ride home. Once Chester had gotten off of Geoff, he began to make dinner (a simple dish of chicken and rice). After the meal was done and Geoff and Chester had eaten, they simply chose to chill on the couch, cuddling all the while and feeling pretty great about each other. Eventually, though, Geoff brought something up.
"Hey... Chester?" Geoff began.
Chester looked down at him w/ a small smile.
"Yes, :3?"
Geoff paused for a bit.
"You like me, right?" Geoff finally asked.
"What kind of question is that? Of course, I do!" Chester replied.
"Well,... I like you too..."
Chester simply giggled at that.
"No, I mean... I think I... like like you..." Geoff said quietly.
"Wha-huh?" Chester asked w/ a confused look.
Geoff rose up a bit and faced Chester. His face had somewhat of a blush which Chester slowly mirrored w/ a shocked stare as Geoff moved closer.
"Geoff, what-?" Chester started.
But he didn't get to finish, for Geoff planted a kiss on Chester's connected lips. At first, Chester didn't know what to say! It was so sudden and so shocking, that his unstable brain was further frazzled! After a bit, though, Chester chose to return the gesture. It was a strange kiss, to say the least, considering that Chester's mouth and lips felt very weird to kiss, but it didn't matter. Geoff and Chester were too lost in the moment as their tongues danced and their lips fitted together. Thread, all the while, was frantically scurrying all over Chester's back in excitement. After a bit, though, the lovers finally disconnected, breathing a little heavily.
"...So that's what you meant..." Chester said quietly.
Geoff turned his head away.
"I-I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that..."
Chester, smiling, gently grabbed Geoff's face and turned it back, much to the latter's confusion.
"Why don't we do it again :}?"
Geoff's eyebrows went up.
"Wait, really?" He asked unsurely.
Chester nodded happily and pulled Geoff in for another kiss. After another while of passionate smooching, eventually, the two fell asleep, holding each other.
Oh, dad, Chester thought sleepily, I can't wait 'til you can see us uwu...
