Stretching

"You need to stretch first," Anzu told Otogi. "Otherwise you'll get cramps and hurt yourself."

Otogi looked around at his furniture, which had been pushed as far as it would go against the walls of his living room. Had his floor always been that big? A rainy Saturday afternoon could certainly lead to activities that he hadn't considered before. In this case, it was Anzu teaching him some simple dance moves.

"Sounds good," Otogi said after realising that Anzu was waiting for a response. "A couple of leg stretches, right?"

"Right," Anzu nodded. She crossed the room to where the sofa had been pushed aside, raised her right leg and rested her ankle on the back of the item of furniture. "Like this."

Otogi studied the angle that her legs made. "What do you take me for?"

"What?"

"I will get hurt if you make me stretch like that."

Anzu blinked once before she realised what he meant, (giving herself a swift mental kick for not understanding sooner. She hung out with Jounouchi, for goodness sake). "That's not a problem," she said, laughing it off. "Just use a lower surface. Then start off with some gentle stretches."

Anzu turned so that her whole body faced her outstretched leg to give a quick demonstration. When she looked back to Otogi, she caught a brief flash of a smile that he wasn't quick enough to wipe off his face.

It was the sort of smile that she didn't trust.

"What?"

"Nothing," Otogi immediately replied, attempting a look of innocence that only raised Anzu's suspicion.

It was at that moment when a draft came under the door and Anzu felt the chill around her legs. Looking down, she discovered that her skirt had slowly been creeping up her thighs.

"Why you-"

The fact that Otogi had not done any stretches, therefore quickly developed cramps when trying to leap over the furniture, meant that Anzu was able to catch him.
