CHAPTER 1
Caught off guard
"Stein?"
"Mm?"
"How many times have you dissected me?"
It was a fine afternoon; cloudy with a beautiful amount of sunshine. I'm sure Death the Kid loved the scene, admiring it wherever he is right now. Well, he's not a part of our story.
"Why did you ask all of a sudden? Do you really want to know?" The stitched professor giggled.
"W-w-why? It's my body, dammit!" Spirit defensively shouted.
"I can't really remember. I have dissected you more than once a day back then." Stein teased.
"Why can't I say it, damn it." The deathscythe argued in his mind.
"Is something wrong, senpai?" his kouhai asked.
"No- It's nothing, really." He replied.
Stein looked at the sky, reminisced and said, "I miss those days."
He was surprised. Seriously, this man? He can actually MISS something? "Heh. What am I thinking? He's a person too." He smiled silently.
"Why are you smiling by yourself there?" he looked oddly at him.
"You know, Stein, I miss those days too. I'm glad that you feel the same." He patted his head and smiled sweetly, "Would you want to be my partner again?"
His heart suddenly started pounding. He was blushing too. Looking at his senpai's cute smiling face, he was like a girl in love.
"Stein? Oi, Stein!"
The moment he saw his kouhai back into reality, he broke out in laughter. "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! You should've seen your face! You were blushing!" and he continued laughing.
"Shut up!" he hit his senpai's head.
"Itaaaaaiiii"
"Deathschyte, Stein, Shinigami-sama is calling for you." Sid interrupted.
"He was making a very cute face a while ago. But…why was he blushing?" Spirit thought and blushed himself.
As they continued walking, Stein thought, "Was I really blushing? Dammit, I'm going to dissect him!"
