Star Wars Action Figures

"How could something so... small... take up so much space in my heart?" Tyler peered down at the boy abouta head and a half shorter than him,

"Are you calling me short?!" Axel looked up, annoyed.

"I'm sorry, what did you say? I can't here from all the way up here."

"I am NOT short. You're are just too tall."

"Aww, it's okay. Dwarves are my type."

"Shut up." Axel blushed and looked back down at his Nikes.

"Look at me."

"No."

"But it's cute when you blush."

"Nope."

"If you don't I'm stealing your Star Wars action figures."

Axel looked back up at his boyfriend while his face was still flushed.

"Sorry." Tyler said. Axel didn't have time to think about why he had said sorry, because right after he had, Tyler cupped Axles face in his hands and pressed their lips together. It was about a three second kiss, and Axel kept his eyes open for the entire time out of surprise.

Their was a pause of silence as both of the boys stared at each other, Axel's face still resting in Tyler's hands.

Realising that, Tyler pulled his hands away and nervously chuckled. He was rubbing his neck, looking at the sky, and Axel was sti looking up at him in shock.

"Yeah... Um... Sorry." this time Tyler's face was more red, and noticing this brought Axel back to his senses.

He smiled, "You should be!"

Tyler loo back down, slightly frightened, but Axel wasn't finished,

"No one threatens to steal my Star Wars action figures!"

Tyler let out a sigh of relief, "Of course not. I am deeply sorry." they laughed a bit longer and both smiled at each other. There eyes met once again and Axel wrapped his arms around Tyler's waist and hugged him. Tyler burried his face in the short boy's hair. Though neither of them could see the other's face, both of them were smiling.
