Internal thoughts
Awkward Friendship Stage…
She cannot keep holding out on me. I will find out who her supplier is. Three months and she still hasn't cracked. For being a gossip, she sure can keep secrets.
Cobra keeps thinking to himself as he sits at the bar waiting for Kinana to show up, so he can give her baby gift. He finally was able to tell what the sex is and wanted to surprise her. Staring at the steaming mix of chemicals in front of him he looks up at the demon bar maid. Nothing short of a chemist could create such a toxic combination.
"How is it that a barmaid has better black-market connections than me?"
Giggling while pouring the fourth mug of beer on her tray she answers, "No it's not a black-market connection. You won't get my supplier information just give up."
She lifts the tray and walks around the bar to distribute the drinks with a grumpy slayer following on her heels growling low and slapping away grabby hands. Listening to her souls he hates when they all agree but listening to Alegria almost always makes him smile with its constant hunger for his poison.
Never tell he won't help us match make! Never tell no more babies! Never tell he won't let us taste his poison!
"I don't know how you can deal with all these nasty drunks." He hisses out after a particularly grabby drunk tried to dodge his slap.
"I get paid to and I know that if they seriously try I could destroy them." She replies with an evil smirk that causes a shiver down his spine for a reason that he rather not dwell on at the moment. "You don't have to keep following me I can handle them without a guard dragon."
"I am hoping to get the name of your chemist and it'd be easier while your distracted working."
After handing out the last beer on her tray she swiftly spins to be face to face with Cobra.
"If I tell you the name then you won't have any reason to help me with my match making."
"I told you about Lucy and Bickslow. She was the biggest person you wanted to match make."
"You didn't tell me about them! You told me to go to the storage room so I could find them myself!"
"Same difference. I told you before I wasn't going to tell you directly but if you find out on your own with a little push in the right direction what would be the difference? I also told you about the library incident where you found Freed and Cana."
"That was very unexpected! They all are really messing up my shipping ideas."
"You aren't going to be happy until everyone in the guild is paired up, are you?"
"Not until the guild is full of babies to be playmates for Asuka!"
"Then get a boyfriend and have your own!" he finally growls out after getting nowhere.
Can't have babies. Infertile. Too intimidating for a boyfriend. Oh, no he heard me!
Cobra's eye widens catching her involuntary admittance of being unable to have children. Now he understands her obsession with couples and kids unable to have her own. She just wants her guild family to grow so she could help take care of them. Locking onto her scared eyes he shakes his head no to let her know he won't tell anyone.
Clearing her throat, she walks over to the bar once again setting down the tray. Picking up a glass she starts wiping it out while not meeting his eye.
"So what's in the bag?"
"A present for Kinana's baby. When she supposed to be coming in?"
"She should be in the next 10 minutes. What did you get her?"
Mira began to lean over the bar hoping to get a view in the bag. Cobra snatches it keep the top of the purple bag closed.
"I got her a toy for the baby and the color is to tell her the sex of the baby. I finally got a good listen on the soul so I thought I would tell her what she is having."
"Aww that's so sweet! You are going to be a wonderful uncle!"
"Of course I am."
"What is she having?"
"I am not telling you before her. But I'll give you a hint. She's having a baby."
The smartass slayer smirks at the frustrated and angry look he's receiving from the demon. He swivels around to face the front door when he heard the familiar soul he has been waiting for.
Ouch my feet! Why did I have to swell up so much! I am glad that I stopped throwing up though!
Chuckling he watches as she makes her way through the guild till she stops and notices his stare. Waving her over she gives him a large smile and hug. He hands her the purple bag and watches as she opens it up and pulls out a blue stuffed snake.
"It's not my birthday what is this for? Not that I don't like it but I remember being purple."
"It's for the baby and I figured blue would be better for a boy."
She stares at him open mouth for a moment but is broken from her stupor upon hearing Mira's squeal of baby boy.
"Are you saying?"
"Yes you are having my nephew."
"OH MY GOD! JET COME HERE NOW!"
The speed mage runs up to his girlfriend recently turned fiancé thinking that something happened begins to check for signs of injury. She pushes his hands away and puts the snake in his face which turns to confusion staring at the stuffed animal.
"It's cute is this what you needed to show me?"
"It's blue!"
"It's a nice blue snake."
"We're having a boy baka!"
"We're having a boy…"
"Yes!"
"Oh my god we are having a boy!"
Jet quickly picks up Kinana and spins her in a circle. Setting her down he keeps his arm around her facing the guild.
"WE ARE HAVING A BOY!"
The whole guild cheers on the good news. The master declared a celebration. Cobra looks at Mira while she wipes a tear from her eye from all the happiness she feels for the soon to be parents.
"For the record there are plenty of guys that are not intimidated by you and you can always adopt." Cobra whispers in her direction.
"You really are a good guy under all the threats and glares." She quietly responded.
"You keep that nonsense to yourself!" He growled back.
"I won't ruin your image."
His name is Henry Ovall. He is the chemist I get all my poisons from.
"Thanks."
He vowed that he will still help her with some couples even after getting what he wants. Not too many people can share his tastes in poisons after all.
AN: Okay so not the best but not the worst and I like to think we are growing closer at a normal pace and I am trying to keep them in character but if you see problems please let me know! Mira is hard for me to write and that's why it takes so long! Always enjoy constructive criticism! Thanks for reading!
