A light shiver traced up her back, but not one that she wanted. It was the freezing cold, that she couldn't get out of her system, no matter how hard she tried. A warm cardigan covered her arms, and a fluffy blanket was draped over her frail frame. She sighed, expecting to see a cloud of air escape from barely parted lips, but instead, just watched as nothing happened. A frown, a groan, and a bad attempt to cover herself up completely.
The sound gained the attention of Yusei Fudo, who looked over, concern lacing his expression.
"Aki, darling, is everything okay?" He asked, moving to sit beside the bundle of blankets, which moved quickly, red hair soon peeping out between grey. Her brown eyes looked him over, squeaking a little; he was so close, and she didn't know what to do, or say. God, what if she messed this up? She was so scared, and could do no more than whimper.
A reassuring hand gripped her shoulder, rubbing it gently, as the mechanic quietly tried to calm her – it worked within seconds, and soon, Aki had subdued, taking a moment to relax into his hold, before sitting up, offering some blanket to him. Instantly, blue eyes lit up, as he pulled the material, and the small woman who was wrapped up in it, close, kissing her cheek lightly and stroking her hair. Aki placed her head on his chest, smiling faintly at the feeling of his heart beating in his chest, as the sweet smell of a vanilla-based cologne filled her senses. Her mind blank, she allowed herself to get comfortable, nuzzling close and attempting to close her eyes, wanting nothing more than a moment of rest, cuddled up to the man that she wanted more than anything else. His fingers still combed through a sea of red, twirling single strands, and plaiting others in the hopes of making the girl happier.
