AN: Hey y'all! (I'm southern, sorry!) Here is another quick drabble I had to get out of my head and onto paper before I forgot. So, here it is! Please enjoy!
Teru backed against the wall, preparing herself for the worst. A bruise was forming on her jaw, and she was bleeding from the corner of her mouth. She had run away from everyone she cared about, trying to bring them some form of protection. But, trouble always seemed to find her at her most vulnerable moments. She stopped backing up, and held her stance firm, gripping her cell phone in one hand, her other hand tightly in a fist. The man who had cornered her was none other than Akira, Mori-sensei's henchman. His evil grin sent chills up and down Teru's spine, but she didn't back down. Otherwise, all that training with DAISY; no, Kurosaki, would have been pointless! She gritted her teeth, preparing herself. Suddenly, Akira's jaw went slack, and he crumbled to the ground.
Teru started to scream, but a calloused hand covered her mouth. A familiar voice spoke into her ear.
"Shhhhhh! Can't you ever learn how to be quiet, brat?" her muscles relaxed when she recognized the voice. He removed his hand from her mouth, and she whispered, "How did you find me? I turned the cell phone off, and.."
A finger to her lips silenced her, and the blond man with piercingly blue eyes spoke, "I followed ya; that first night ya left, I felt somethin' was wrong with ya. So, see how good my instincts were? Next time, A-cup, leave all the other stuff to me, k?"
Teru nodded, a tear slipping down her face. She turned and faced her rescuer; Kurosaki. She smiled weakly and tried to think of something to say. Before she could utter a word, she was roughly swung over his shoulder, and she instinctively yelled, "Go bald, Kurosaki! Baldy, baldy!" He chuckled but didn't release her. They made their way to his car, and he softly set her down. He took his jacket off, and wrapped it around Teru's shaking shoulders. Kurosaki tilted her face towards his, and lightly pressed his lips to her own. She didn't flinch like he expected, but slowly closed her eyes and wrapped her arms around his neck. He kept the kiss chaste, and they remained that way for an eternity. When he pulled away, she whispered, "Ummm, Kurosaki?"
He smiled genuinely, "Yes, Teru?"
She blushed, "Can I call you.. Tasuku?" It was his turn to blush, and he pulled her into a gentle hug.
"It doesn't matter to me, either way," he said, blushing beet red. "I'm just thankful that you're okay."
AN: I absolutely adore this pairing! They cheer me up with their cute name-callng and such. But, anyways! What'd you think of this chappie? Bad? Terrible? Awesome? Hehe! I'm still getting used to publishing my work online, so wish me luck! Until next time!
