"So... Now what?" Tiffani asked. She was extremely bored. Even thought it's only been a few minutes... maybe 13 minutes at the most.
"Well your still part snake..." Ayame stated.
"This sucks..." Tiffani exclaimed. Ayame flashed her some puppy dog eyes. Tiffani teasingly stuck her tongue out at him.
"I wasn't saying you suck... yet... and don't worry I'm a mean person so if I do say you suck trust me it's the closest I can get to a compliment." She started to mumble.
"Your a strange little cookie." Ayame said. Tiffani looked him.
"Oh really? Did you just now notice?" She asked. He was about to say something when she tackled him and sat on him with an I-don't-care look.
"What was that for?" he asked, his voice muffled by the floor.
"I have no idea." Tiffani said, getting off of him
She sat next to him as he gathered himself.
"I guess it was payback..." She said blushing.
"But I just hugged you. You sat on me!" he said.
"I'm not one to hug!"
"Well get over it! It will become mandatory that you hug me at least once a day!" Ayame said certain that if he could reason he could force.
"Ahhah no." Tiffani laughed.
"Yes" Ayame said very seriously. Tiffani was about to shake her head no when Ayame glomped her.
"GAH! Get off me!" Tiffani yelled.
"Nope! Not until you agree to my demands!" Ayame said with a smile.
"Gah alright alright one small hug every day FINE!" she yelled. Ayame climbed off of her.
"YAY! Hug!" Ayame yelled. Tiffani gave him a murderous look.
"No... I'm counting the fact that you just sat on me as a hug." Tiffani said sternly.
"Oh you're no fun! I bet Veronica would hug me." Ayame said. Tiffani felt a twang of... something. Anger? No that wasn't it. Sadness? No not that either. Jealousy? But... How?
"But you can only hug the person your paired with... so HA!" Tiffani rubbed it in Ayame's face. Ayame had a sad look.
"Great I'm paired with someone who doesn't like affection whatsoever!" Ayame cried. Tiffani shrugged and turned her back to him.
"Not my fault..." She stated.
Tiffani heard sobbing. She turned to see Ayame crying.
"You don't know what it's like," he sobbed, "to never be able to hold a woman. One you may care for deeply. You don't know what it's like, to never be loved by someone out of the family. Being stuck with Shigure! Sure I love him but he's a man! I need a woman! And I find out that there is a woman for me and I can't fucking have her because she so caught up on herself!"
Tiffani was shocked. She looked at the broken man, sobbing his heart out.
Tiffani felt horrible.
"I'm not caught up in myself... I just don't want to get hurt!" Tiffani yelled. She felt like a bitch. She went to give Ayame a hug.
"Well think about it this way... the less often you get a hug the more you appreciate it..." Tiffani whispered.
Ayame wrapped his arms around Tiffani fast and he held her there.
"I would never hurt you.." he whispered into her hair.
"You can't tell the future Ayame..." Tiffani said. Ayame had a sad look on his face.
"You're right. Maybe I might as well just go kill myself right now. Would that please you?" he spat letting her go. Tiffani's eyes went wide.
