Floating HU in 3bet pots

This hand is before the other one posted. Same opponent in both posts. We've both been playing our buttons aggressively. Hes limped once or twice, but otherwise would raise or fold. I've been raising most of my buttons and called both 3bets. I showed down KK88ds and KKK5ss in both pots.

Opponent is Pwnette_15 or something like that. Was sitting with +6 buyins ($660ish) when I sat so either ran hot or something before I got there. No past history between us. This hand is about 30-40 hands into our match. I flopped a flush with KK88 and stacked AA, most of the stacks went in pre and I got a great flop. Guy was pissin' and moaning all match as I kept building my stack. Theres been a fair amount of 3betting since we've been deep. Mostly on his part however. I caught one bluff before this hand where I flopped a straight, bet the flop, checked behind on the turn and called a strong river bet when board paired. Other than that, no bluffs I've caught. Been solid play from both of us. What do you do here?

Ok, I picked up a OESD and FD but the plan was to bet most turns if checked too.

doesn't seem like the best board to float, but now that you are here you kind of have to bet. I don't think he's folding a big pair on the turn though so you are probably going to have to fire another barrel depending on river.

That's hardly even a float. You're more like hanging around for a 7-high flush. I would actually just check this hand down; no need to get over-invested with a weak hand.
