KRIS DREEMURR || DELTARUNE

Even though your new friend, Kris, was a bit of a wallflower, they somehow managed to fluster or infuriate you with just a few words or actions. They genuinely seemed to enjoy your explosive reactions, and sometimes it was hard to tell if they were joking or if there was some hidden subtext in their teasing, something that might hint at their true feelings for you. Meh, though, you always chalked it up to friendly banter. After all, the thought that you could actually be someone's romantic interest was unsettling and left a bitter taste in your mouth. Like… anyone but you. That's just ridiculous…

Having no other friends or hobbies, you spent all your free time in Kris's company. They weren't the most talkative, but they listened to you perfectly. It felt like they only opened their mouth to deliberately provoke you. What an idiot…

"Let's play a guessing game?" Kris asked calmly, staring at the ceiling of their room. You were both lying on the floor, and it was incredibly boring. You looked at them lying next to you with some suspicion, but still smirked and nudged them with your elbow. "What are we guessing?" you asked with newfound enthusiasm, as if challenging your friend. Kris looked at you with their piercing red eyes and then pulled a package of flavored lip glosses from their pants pocket, with flavors like berries or soda. The corners of their lips lifted slightly, showing you the package in all its glory. All your confidence immediately plummeted, blood rushed to your cheeks, and your lips trembled, no longer able to contain the confident smirk that had been there just a few seconds earlier. "Uh… we're going to eat them, right?" At your hesitant words, Kris only smiled wider, not hiding the cunning glint in their eyes. You noticed how their face was beginning to flush slightly red.
