Zero hasn't changed much all these years but he was still as good-looking as ever. When she was near enough she yelled for him to stop but it looked like he didn't hear her or he was ignoring her. It was either one of those two but she felt it was the latter. "Jeez , Zero didn't change. Even now I can't match up with his long strides," she muttered to herself. Suddenly Zero seemed to stop walking and Yuuki quickly approached him.
"Ummm…" Yuuki said and Zero turned around with a questioning look in his face when he saw the brunette. Lavender eyes met with the Chocolate brown ones. Yuuki couldn't help but be mesmerized whenever she looked into those lavender eyes of his. She came back to reality when she heard someone cough.
"Ummnn…I would like to thank you for saving me earlier. And as thanks I …." Yuuki said but Zero cut off what she was saying and told her in a very irritated tone, "You don't need to thank me for that. And you're pretty much bothering me so stop following." and started walking again. Yuuki didn't heed his words and continued to follow him and she thought, "Did Zero forget about me or was he just playing tricks with me like when we were young?"
""Hey!" Yuuki said again but Zero just ignored her. "I just wanted to treat you as thanks. Please accept my offer," Still Zero didn't answer her but she did not give up until Zero tired with all of this just accepted to get it over with.
Both of them entered a café, since it was the 24th of December there are a lot of customers in the café and majority of it were couples. A waitress came to their table, greeted them then took their order. Zero ordered a brewed coffee while Yuuki got a parfait. The waitress informed them that they were the 100th customer of the day and as a treat, the café will gave them a special couple menu for free. Yuuki was blushing and gave a smile at the waitress as she moved away. Zero was frowning and wanted to retort at the thought that they were mistaken as a couple. Yet when he saw the sparkle in those chocolate brown eyes of Yuuki when she heard that they will get a free treat he felt a nostalgic feeling that he can't explain. The two of them sat in the secluded area of the café wherein the customers can have privacy. Yuuki was still blushing at the thought that they were mistaken as couple and pretended that they really are just to avail the free treat. But somehow she was surprised that Zero didn't react.
There was an awkward silence that surrounded the both of them. As they finally took a step to break that silence, both of them spoke at the same time. Zero sighed and gestured for Yuuki to talk first.
"I just want to thank you properly for saving me earlier and for accepting my offer as a token of my gratitude." Yuuki said with sincerity in her eyes.
"Like I said earlier, you don't need to thank me for that. It's not a big deal anyway," Zero said as he looked into those chocolate-brown eyes as if he was looking deep into those eyes searching for something. "Anyway, I haven't introduced myself I'm Zero Kiryuu."
Looking into those eyes is kind of nostalgic.
He was still surprised with himself. Why was he sitting down in this café facing the brunette he saved earlier and why didn't he retort at the idea that they were mistaken as couple by the waitress? All these questions and no possible answers.
"Yuuki Cross," Yuuki said warmly as she gave him a smile yet at the back of her mind she thought, Did Zero really forget me or was he just playing pranks on me, pretending to be cold. She was broken out of her reverie when their orders arrived. At first they were hesitant to talk with each other but later on they found themselves enjoying each other's company. Yuuki did all the talking while Zero listened to her every word.
