By the time another week passed, Gemini had proven Pond’s statement true.

Kisses were no longer just a morning greeting. They happened when Fourth was pouting, when he was anxious, when he was being teased by the others. Every moment seemed like an excuse for Gemini to lean in and steal another one.

One evening, they were watching a movie with everyone in the living room. Fourth had snuggled up against Gemini’s side, his head resting on his shoulder. He had been quiet all day, and Gemini could tell he was tired.

Without thinking, Gemini turned his head and pressed a lingering kiss to the top of Fourth’s head. Fourth sighed softly, relaxing even more against him.

The room fell silent.

Pond was the first to break it. “You guys do realize we’re still here, right?”

Gemini barely acknowledged them, his focus still on Fourth. “And?”

Prim squealed. “He doesn’t care anymore! He really doesn’t care anymore!”

Fourth groaned, his face now completely buried against Gemini’s chest. “I hate you all.”

Gemini smirked, pressing another kiss to Fourth’s temple just to prove a point. “No, you don’t.”

Fourth peeked up at him, cheeks still pink. “Maybe a little.”

Gemini chuckled, wrapping his arms around Fourth a little tighter. “Too bad. You’re stuck with me now.”

And for once, Fourth didn’t mind that at all.
