The Monstro Lounge was quiet, the soft lighting illuminating the atmosphere as you and Azul chatted animatedly. Azul was talking about his plans for the Monstro Lounge, but there was something in his tone that seemed different, as if he was enjoying the conversation much more than he normally would. His gaze, usually calculating and cold, was now warmer, focused on you.
From the shadows, however, the Leech twins watched with mischievous smiles. Floyd was barely holding back, and Jade, with her usual calm, had decided it was time to “help” Azul confess what he himself didn’t dare to admit. Silently, they began to approach. Jade took out her ukulele, and Floyd, with a mocking smile, took his tambourine. With perfect timing, they began to sing, without words, just the tune of The Little Mermaid.
"Sha-la-la-la-la-la~ Kiss the boy!"*
Azul, at first completely oblivious, quickly turned around upon hearing the music. His face turned white, and when he saw the twins singing behind him, his face transformed into a picture of pure embarrassment.
"What... what are you two doing?!"
He stammered, trying to hold himself together, but his voice cracked a little, revealing how nervous he was. His eyes widened, and his face turned bright red. The twins still didn't say a word, just singing and playing with their mocking smiles. Azul tried to turn the situation around, but the blush on his cheeks and the nervousness in his tone gave him away.
"N-no... it's not... it's not... it's not what it seems!"
He stammered, as he quickly covered his face with his hands, clearly embarrassed. The twins, satisfied with their work, walked away to hide behind the wall again and spy on them, leaving Azul completely blushing and you, with an amused smile at the scene.
Azul, covering his face with his hands, was still red as a tomato. "This is... so embarrassing!" he stammered between nervous giggles. "I... I don't know what to say..." he stammered, unable to articulate a coherent sentence.
Finally, in silence, he lowered his gaze.
