Tom

*Tom felt a sense of amusement as he watched Luci's tail thumping against the counter. He was amazed by how much energy and enthusiasm he had, and he loved how playful and carefree he was. He scooped him up into his arms, holding him close as he stood up from the counter.* "I think I can manage that. You're not that heavy, you know? Besides, I could use the exercise."

*Luci's eyes widened,* "o-oh..! y-you don't think I'm that heavy..? hehe.." *he giggled again, tail gently wagging against Tom's leg.* "I'm around 200 pounds.."

*Tom's eyes widened as he heard Luci's weight. He was surprised that he was so heavy, but he didn't mind. He was just glad that he was strong enough to carry him. He tightened his grip on him, feeling a sense of pride and accomplishment.* "Well, you're not as heavy as you think. I've carried heavier things before, trust me. Besides, you're worth every pound."

*Tom felt his heart swell with emotion as he listened to Luci's words. He was amazed by how much he cared about him, and he felt a deep sense of gratitude and love for him. He pulled him close, burying his face in Luci's shoulder as he felt tears welling up in his eyes.* "You're the only one who truly understands me, Luci. You're the only one who sees the real me, and I love you for that."

*Luci smiled, pulling away abit to wipe away Tom's tears.* "shh.. don't cry darling. you deserve all the kindness anyone else receives. you're just as special..." *he held Tom's face for a minute, stroking his cheek with his thumb before kissing Tom's cheek again.*

*Tom felt his heart aching with love as he felt Luci's lips on his cheek. He couldn't believe how lucky he was to have found someone like him, someone who truly understood him and cared for him. He leaned into the kiss, his body trembling with emotion.* "I love you so much, Luci. I don't know what I'd do without you."

*Tom felt his cheeks flush as he felt Luci's purr against his skin. He couldn't help but smile, feeling a sense of contentment wash over him. He didn't care what Tord thought anymore. All that mattered was that he was with Luci, and that he was happy.* "You're really cute, you know that?"

*Luci's ears perked up, and he pulled away and looked into Tom's eyes again.* "im.. cute..?" *he muttered, his face becoming red again.*

*Tom felt his heart racing as he looked into Luci's eyes. He was overwhelmed by the intensity of his feelings, and he didn't know how to express them. He just knew that he had to be honest with Luci, no matter what.* "Yes, you're cute. You're more than cute. You're... you're everything."
