[He doesn't even know that Ren knows the truth. He knows the future they'll hold, he just refuses to imagine it. If that is where his path is taking, so be it, but...
He never knows exactly where his path is going. Nothing is set in stone. And if he dreams hard enough, if he hopes hard enough, if he simply thinks it's going to happen a different way...
It might. It's not a promise, but it might.
Ren's smile softens, and he tips upwards to place a kiss on Akechi's forehead.]
Just something to think about. I bet it would be fun.
[They can, if he believes it. They can. They will.]
Gives me something to think about while I enjoy the chocolate you gave me. Do you want to try one?
There are worse people to travel with. I imagine with the two of us it would never be boring.
[Which feels like an understatement considering all of their everything, but the thought leaves Akechi a little warm, even if it he knows it's such an impossibility. Still, the fantasy of it is everything.
For once, he accepts the kiss without grumbling or pushing away, allowing Ren to press in close and shower him with affection.]
No, they're yours. But I'll stay and keep you company while you enjoy them.
If I was going to, I certainly wouldn't spoil the surprise.
[And what does it say that Ren pulls him and Akechi goes without hesitation, following him to the table, where he'll no doubt be cuddled and kissed and fawned over while the other boy enjoys his sweets. But maybe, considering it's Ren, it really isn't the worst thing. Maybe this is one of those precious moments he'll hold on to, knowing their time together is so limited.
So Akechi will stay and see every minute through.]

[He reaches and loops their fingers together as he starts to pull Akechi towards the table where he put the candy.]
Stay a while then. Okay?
