We don't notice it.
We don't feel it.
Still…
We move on…
The other guardians thought that they would make a good couple. However, they thought otherwise. After all, she had a strong will of dislike towards him and he… he likes someone else…
He likes Amu-chan- happy, peppy, lively and cute Amu-chan.
That is why, with every little thing that she did, he couldn't help but wonder what Amu-chan would do if she was the one left alone with him…
They were watching a horror movie and she looked bored. Amu-chan would be screaming her head off, wouldn't she?
She was hogging the entire chocolate shake. Amu-chan would share it with him, wouldn't she?
She would call him, 'Jerk', 'Purple-head', 'Girly-boy' and 'Annoying hobbit'. Amu-chan would kindly address him with his real name, wouldn't she?
The face of a ghost suddenly popped in the screen and, to his surprise, even she screamed. In her panic, the chocolate shake sprawled all over her white dress. He immediately lent her his hanky and, noticing that the drink wouldn't come off, immediately stood up then ran towards the restroom so that he could let water run over the cloth. After squeezing it so that it didn't drip on the floor, he jogged his way towards the cinema. However, at the sight of the stall where they sold drinks, he immediately stopped.
"Here you go" he handed her the damp cloth. She eyed him for a moment before grabbing the hanky and then using it to clean the chocolate off her dress.
Amu-chan would definitely smile and thank him, wouldn't she?
He sighed, sat on his chair then handed her a cup, not bothering to look at her. "Here. I figured that you might want something to drink since the movie is not even halfway done…"
No acknowledgement, no thank you- she simply grabbed the cup. It wasn't long before he heard her gulp on the strawberry drink.
Suddenly, another horrifying face popped in the screen. Out of reflex, her hand jolted, causing the drink to spill all over his oxford shirt. He sighed, and was about to stand when her hand forced his chest down.
"I'll do it…" she sighed.
Amu-chan would be freaking out by now, wouldn't she?
"Fine…"
And with that, she was off.
He didn't expect her to come back. It was in her nature to leave him. It was so typical of her to enjoy his humiliation. However, she did come back. He sat up straight, trying to hide his surprise.
"Here you go…"
"Thanks…"
She handed him the damp cloth.
Amu-chan would be in so much panic that she'd trip on her way back and attempt to wipe the drink off my shirt herself…
She settled in her seat beside him and, when he was done wiping his shirt, she handed him a chocolate bar.
"Thank you…for helping me clean my dress and…I'm sorry for wasting your money on the drink…" she gazed at him- sincere, honey-blazed eyes being reflected back at him. Then, to his surprise, she cutely smiled, slightly cocking her head to the side. "By the way, in case you did not know, I don't hate you…girly-boy…"
Nagihiko completely forgets Amu…
