A Sleepover at Del Fiore Manor

"Oh no, I completely forgot! I haven't even given you a proper proposal yet! I'll prepare the perfect setting next time, so look forward to it! And, of course, I need to get the finest ring for you!"

Laxus squeezed Rocco tightly in his arms, pulling him down onto the bed, already chattering away about their future together.

At this point, Rocco felt like crying.

Nothing he said seemed to get through.

When, exactly, had he ever agreed to marry Laxus?

Well… okay, maybe he had said something along the lines of "If I had to choose between the Crown Prince and Laxus, I'd rather marry Laxus."

However, that was just a figure of speech, wasn't it?

Sure, maybe he had gotten a little jealous, but that was just childish possessiveness over a close friend!

It wasn't like he…

"…Hmm."

…Okay.

Maybe he had said and done a lot of things that could be misunderstood.
