What are you smiling at? I smile because you smile. I like when you smile widely. You're cute. I'm not cute. I'm solemn. The president of the Prefect Club, you know? Are you opposed to your own cuteness? I am not cute. You wanna fight me? You're cute. Picking up a fight,huh?

i love love love how, throughout, this entire episode we could see the build up for the kiss.
from akk protesting to give aye a 'sponge bath' to eventually holding his hand
then the way akk kept touching aye, unprompted, lingering for longer and longer
then actually giving into the teasing and being just as playful
to the moment he realized aye wanted to kiss him and accepting that he wanted to kiss him back
and opening up to aye's feelings, smiling when aye admitted his jealousy
this entire episode was perfect in the pacing and the kiss was a culmination of all these moments, with akk embracing his own feelings and giving into the urge he's been experiencing all along.
“Last time, you were the only one that pinned it for me. It’s not fair. This time, we do it for each other. I like it. It’s like we’re exchanging wedding rings.”
