Stein POV

So...Chrona liked my idea.

Damn...just when I thought that girl couldn't be any sexier.

"Huh..." My smirk was so wide I couldn't hold my cigerette anymore, instead butting it out. "Damn, that girl..."

"I don't know what to do about her..." Kid admitted. "I think...that you might be right..."

"Right?"

Kid had a look of depression and shame on his features. "That I'm not good enough for her..."

I sighed in slight irritation. "What a pesimist," I commented.

"Excuse me?"

"I never said that were weren't good enough, Kid. I said that you wouldn't be able to hold her attention forever with how little you know. You should start listening better,"

Kid POV

I felt extremely lost. "But...that is what you meant? That I wasn't good enough...?"

"Kid, you're a reaper. You're next in line to take the title of Shinigami-sama. I'm a scientist and professor. If anything, Chrona would be doubting if she's good enough for you...which I'm sure she is. And I rarely stack up."

"But...you're a powerful Meister just like she is..." I drifted.

"Yeah, but so are you."

"I have a horrible obsession..."

"Chrona has a talking blob that bullies her," Stein sighed. "Look, Kid, I get that you think you're...asymmetrical scum or whatever the hell, but we all have faults and strengths. There's no point in trying to ruin the little moments of happiness you have with stupid little troubles."

I sat there, feeling humiliated with my previous behavior. Stein had insulted me...but it seemed like all of my fears were of my own imagination.

I felt like an ass.

"I...I'm sorry then..." I mumbled, my hands figeting in my lap and my face heating up.

"No, I should apologize," Stein clarified. "Actually I considered it the last time you were here, after you left but now...I don't know if I should."

"What?"

He had a smirk on his face again and wound his screw. "You said that Chrona liked the idea, right?"

I was seeing red again. "Oh, no! Nononononono! We are NOT doing it!"

"Why not?"

"WHY NOT? It's disgusting and wrong!"

"What's so wrong about it?" He asked. Was he really so filthy?

"Jeez, I though Spirit was the pervert of your duo! But you!" I threw my arms up in defeat. "There's no reasoning with a man like you!"

"Hey, I'm not the one that told Chrona and got her all excited. What if she wants to? And it'd be a good learning experience for you," he pressed on.

"NO!" I stood and headed for the door. "I can't beleive I came here! You're disgusting!" This time, I did slam the door behind me.

Stein POV

I sighed, frowning in disappointment.

Seems like I took five steps forward and eight steps back. Damn.

I leaned back and thought if I should do something to push this into my favor. I could try talking to Kid again, but he's so prideful and easily offended. My best option was to go and confront Chrona.

ooooo
