Shika/Tema
AU.
He spots her leaning against her black corvette, mutters, and makes his way towards her smirking form. He ignores his friend's incredulous stares, and urgent questions.
Who is that? They ask with question marks in their eyes. Is that your girlfriend?
He makes an attempt to straighten out his tie, smooth out his upset shirt, and sag his pants slightly as he continues on his way towards her. He feels like a child as he looms closer and closer; she goes to college, and he is still slaving away in high school. Whenever they go out together, he notices many people giving him slightly offensive glances, surprise in their wide eyes as if silently asking themselves 'How did he manage to get her?'
From her corvette, she notices his contemplative state, and purses her lips. She knows what is exactly going through his teenaged mind, and is determined to wash those thoughts away.
As he draws closer, she reaches out and grabs him by the collar before pulling him into a kiss that they usually shared when the stars shone at night, and when no one was there to witness it…
And then, in the middle of the court yard filled with gaping students, in front of the shocked faces, and in front of his slightly jealous friends, she pulls away gently and smiles her best smile at him.
"Younger guys are grand, aren't they?" She says arrogantly, flushing slightly (it was the autumn heat, she would blame later).
He smiles lazily, an uncharacteristic blush gracing his high cheekbones before shoving his hands deep into his pockets. He no longer feels self-conscious, because he knows that this woman, the one who always seemed to embarrass him, loves him for who he is, despite the age differences and their clashing personalities.
Hope it wasn't too confusing :D
