Leon observed Sora laughing as she finished her tale.

He noticed that she had rolled up the sweat pants he lent her and the sleeves of her jacket were rolled up as well. Her legs were crossed on the couch and the previous space between them was very small. He could "accidently" shift and their legs would be touching…

"Mom was very embarrassed and Dad didn't know what to do with me."

She giggled a little more. "I mean, what do you do when your child's screaming that the pregnant lady ate a baby?"

Leon shook his head with a half-smile. "I would stop reading Little Red Riding Hood to said child."

He had shifted his body earlier towards her, so he was able to place his elbow on the back of the couch while his hand propped his head. "I never knew you were such a troublemaker."

Sora playfully pushed his shoulder. "I never knew you liked to have fun with water. I bet you feel right at home in a water park!"

He smirked. "Says the person who started the water fight."

"Hey, I wasn't the one making outrageous demands every day!"

"You were not," he conceded, "however, you did carry out my every whim."

He reached a hand out to grab some locks of her red hair.

"I wonder what that means," he murmured as his eyes watched his fingers tangle themselves in the locks.

When she made a sound of surprise, he looked up at her.

Grey eyes were slightly lidded and very focused on her. Her hands gripped her knees.

"I, I had the bet to fulfill."

His fingers lightly tugged her hair. "That wasn't it."

Her brown eyes narrowed. "How would you know?"

He gave a one shouldered shrug. "Observations."

Her eyebrows went up. "Like what?"

A crooked smile appeared on his face. "I thought you'd never ask."
