Ayontay felt his ears going warm from the hug and lifted a hand to one to feel it and found it actually was warm. They were probably bright red as well! He wanted to die of embarrassment over how he was blushing so much from Madiquel’s praises that his damn ears were even blushing. Still, he couldn’t help the smile at her excitement and how she showed her dad – well, tried to, she really didn’t give him all that much time to do more than acknowledge that the wood existed—and Ayontay laughed, suddenly forgetting his embarrassment and just revelling in how happy he had made her.
Wait, what? Her bedroom? Ayontay had spent plenty of time in her room and it had never seemed odd and even Jajojin didn’t seem to care, though Ayontay had caught him from time to time checking up on them. But now, he suddenly felt awkward and shy about going in there. Nothing had changed, except maybe he was starting to realise he really liked Madiquel more than and different than he liked their other friends. She was just so special. Beautiful, funny, kind, and strong. But he was… awkward. You could definitely tell he was one of R’nd’s boys as he looked like his dad and his half-brother T’ryn, but he didn’t think he had half the confidence as either one of them and he still had his baby fat and just felt like he wouldn’t end up with anyone or even a dragon. When he tried to tell T’ryn that, his brother told him to shut up and stop worrying since he was so young still. Ayontay had noticed how uncomfortable T’ryn was and wondered if the bronzerider considered himself to be too young still as well.
No matter what, he had decided to keep his crush hidden as best as he could because he didn’t want to lose his friendship with Madiquel. They had so much fun together and he’d hate to lose it because he wanted to kiss her and she was disgusted at the thought. Shadow, perched on his shoulder, nudged his head against his cheek in reassurance and Ayontay smiled and gave the tiny blue a pat on his head.
“I think you should put the one with your name outside your room. I mean, you and your dad know where your room is, but any company that comes by will know and know better than to wander in but they can also see how amazing the sign is,” he laughed lightly as he mock-bragged about his work. He was proud of it but he didn’t think it was the best piece of work there ever was.
Kicking off his shoes, as he always did when he entered Madiquel’s room so he didn’t track dirt, Ayontay wandered around, studying the walls. “For the other one… above the bed? By the dresser?” He laughed again over how very unhelpful he was being. “I dunno, Madi. Are you sure you really want to see it every day? Maybe shove it in the closet?” Her reaction was so genuine that he knew she couldn’t have faked it but even still, he didn’t want her to feel obligated to hang it if she really didn’t want to.
