Ideas
It was the time of the year. That time of the year. Lars sighed and looked at Mei sideways. She was focused on her sketch notebook, writing and talking alone. They were in the first days of October, but she got some ideas probably since January, he thought. That was the way she was when it was about costumes.
It wasn't a surprise; she was a fashion designer and a cosplayer. Last year they dressed up as two characters from her favorite anime. Also those costumes were very useful for other occasions, he cough and blushed when he thought about it.
That day he accompanied her to buy some materials.
"I still can't decide what we will be this year" she said.
"Why don't we wear some costumes from a past year?" he asked.
"No! Of course no!" she replied almost insulted.
He looked at her. No one else knew her better than he did, so he already knew she wouldn't accept his stupid suggestions and less asking her to repeat. However they already had a lot of costumes at home.
"Don't you have a favorite one?"
"No… well, yes, I do, but I don't think you want us to be the waiter and the bunny girl at your sister's party" she teased.
He blushed. Those ones were only for their eyes; no one had to know about the existence of such costumes, and even if she said as a joke, the only image caused him shocked him. She giggled when she saw his reaction.
"Just kidding. Those are only for the two of us, Bunny" she said, kissing him.
"I know!" he said a bit upset, crossing his arms.
She laughed again.
"Wait, I have an idea" she said with that cheerfulness of hers. She talked quickly about the costumes she would make and the things they should buy.
He just smiled. That's how she was, and he loved her for that.
