Previously:
His smiles were very confusing to her.
But nonetheless, it was sincere, that she could tell.
"You're a girl,"
What.
The.
Heck?
Violet eyes stared at Bossun which made him quite uncomfortable but nonetheless, he stared back, too, with his light brown eyes, scanning for any bad feelings or such. But nothing was found, almost like she was unreadable. But, she wasn't. Without his goggles, he finally identified what she was feeling.
She was puzzled and a little disappointed.
He stretched another smile, which made her more confused than ever before.
"Just because you're the 'Onihime', doesn't mean I'll let you off by yourself," He finally explained and Himeko's shoulders relaxed from its tense position. A small smile was found on her lips, then, she laughs out loud. Bossun was confused, why the hell was she laughing at a serious statement. Yes, he, the great Bossun, is serious.
Without his goggles.
Finally Himeko spoke after her 'laughing fit'.
"That's the good thing," It wasn't, actually. Himeko just continued. "I'm called 'Onihime'! And others would just run off if they know me, right! It's a good thing," she stated again. She had remembered the time when she saved the kid, who was now looking for her, from thugs. She knew the fear they had felt when the other shouted she was the 'Onihime' to his partner.
She bit her lip, which was unnoticeable from the still confused Bossun. She walks pass Bossun and stopped after she did. "I can handle myself very well than you," She muttered. Bossun wanted to cackle, but didn't. He remembered how helpless she were when Momoka and that gang beat her up. Both him and Switch came to the rescue.
What if it happened again? (Excuse the Momoka part, she's a good girl now.)
He shook his head and grabbed her hand again. "Look, I know that," he said, hesitating a bit until he finally continued, "But just what I said," His gaze hardened as he looked at Himeko's back. "No, I can't let you off on your own."
A sigh came out her lips.
"Alright, fine," Bossun smiles. She looks back to be met with his grinning face close to her. She stops for a moment, processing. Her cheeks reddened and she looked away. She gripped fiercely on his hand, making Bossun let an inaudible scream of pain at her back. Her heart was beating so fast they had to stand there for a few minutes.
When her heart calmed down to its regular beat, she nudged him.
"C-Come on!"
She pulled him, running to the streets. He followed willingly, still the grin stayed. She was calm now, the grip on his hand had relaxed and it was gentler now. But no, she wasn't calm at all. Her face felt hot. Even after a few minutes of walking, it still hasn't gone down. Many thoughts ran around in her mind, mostly made of questions she couldn't answer herself.
She continued walking on, aiming at nothing, head in clouds. Her hand got pulled back softly which she ignored or maybe she didn't really noticed.
"Himeko?"
He pulled more, but it was still gentle. This time, she really ignored it. He looked back and sighed. He pulled her harshly this time, annoyed. She gasp as she fell down, but not on the cemented street. But on Bossun's arms. Bossun sighs.
"Sheesh, I called you for like, the second time, what's wrong?"
Himeko blushes at their position and stood straight quickly. She nervously laughs, her cheeks still red and just got redder. "S-Sorry.." He hummed and turned around, walking. She tilts her head, confused. He didn't hear any steps from her and turned around, confused too.
"That's your house, right?"
He pointed at the blue house. Himeko cringed at this and the same time, blushed.
"Y-Yes," She whispered but was still heard by Bossun. Bossun nodded. "Then, come on," He grabbed her arm and surprisingly she hooked it more, getting them closer than before. There was always this exacted measurement of space between them whenever they walk.
Now, it seemed she was glad they didn't have one now. She smiles softly at this thought the blush reddening after. Bossun noticed this and rose his eyebrow, curious to what made the great 'Onihime' blush. But he didn't ask, he would probably get hit by her hockey stick. He scratches his head with his hat and sighs.
Himeko looks up at him, her violet eyes that seemed to shine in the darkness glowed curiously. Bossun noticed she was staring, he looked at her, his brown eyes, curious too. Himeko leaned in closer, her heart thumping louder than before.
"What's wrong?" She asked in a whisper and Bossun, for the first time, blushed as he was now the one noticed how close they were. He leaned back and looked away, coughing.
"W-Well, you seemed air-headed today," He found an excuse. Her eyes widened. She leaned back, too, and shrugs. "Just thinking of something, sorting it out." He nods and pulled her to her house. She walked on the front porch steps and set her hand on the handle but looked back.
He grins. "Farewell?"
She opened the door and closed it a little but poked her head out, grinning back. She laughs.
"Farewell, my knight in shining armor," She teased which made Bossun chuckle.
"You got that right!" Bossun winked.
Then, they realized they just flirted. Himeko cleared her throat, feeling her face get hot again. Bossun turned around, his own cheeks, red. "Well. See ya tomorrow, bye," He stated and walked away, one hand in the air, waving.
Himeko muttered, "Bye.." Then, she watched his figure disappear as he closed the door, blushing.
I hate this day.
