She wasn't expecting a knock on her door at five-thirty in the morning and she groaned while her brother snored loudly on the sofa.
With much exhaustion, she slouched out of her bed in her usual pink pajama's, and slowly walked towards the door with a somber expression.
Rubbing her left eye, she deliberately opened the door, and to her surpise she saw Allen.
He stood confidently with a hand on his right side while it seemed that he was biting onto the stem of a red-colored rose. The flower part on the left side of his face and the stem part on the right side. He smirked once he saw her and flashed her a seductive wink.
The farmer's eyes grew wide at seeing the rose placed in his mouth and was taken aback while she blushed insanely.
"Greetings Miki, sorry for the disturbance..." Allen apologized with a laugh and flashed her a wink as he took the rose out of his mouth.
Miki's body jumped slightly at seeing him take the rose out of his mouth and he held out his hand with the rose in it so she could obtain it.
"This is for you," Allen advised smoothly and his signature smirk formed onto his lips.
It took her awhile for his words to register into her mind, considering she was rather drowsy, and she then jumped in shock at realizing what he had just said.
"B-But... I-It w-was i-in y-your m-mouth," Miki stuttered timidly while blushing and shifted her eyes to the ground.
Allen inched closer towards her face with a smirk and whispered seductively, "Exactly."
A squeak escaped out of Miki's mouth as she fell backwards onto the floor of her house and he chuckled quietly.
The hair stylist suddenly felt an immediate amount of guilt for not catching her and helped her up.
"You okay?" Allen questioned quietly.
"Yeah. I-I think..." Miki replied uncertainly while blushing and avoided eye contact.
Allen then held the rose to her face with a smirk and asked in a cocky tone, "Well? Will you accept it?"
"U-Uh..." Miki stammered as she blushed, unsure of what to say, and she bit her lip.
"Come on, it won't kill you," Allen teased playfully and then reminded, "And remember I'm still waiting for your answer."
Miki let out a bashful laugh and nodded. "I-I k-know..."
'Darn... I keep blushing around him but WHY?!' Miki thought in frustration and blushed even more.
Footsteps were abruptly heard from behind Allen and the two of them looked back to see that Neil was advancing towards them with some sort of object in his grasp and the animal dealer was looking down at the ground as he walked.
'Neil...? What's he doing here so early? I mean, I know he comes here to help me out with Sapphire but he usually never comes this early... And what's he holding?' Miki pondered innocently.
Looking up, Neil was taken aback at seeing both Miki and Allen at the farmer's door step and he growled.
"Damn it!" he whispered under his breath in frustration and hid the object in his pocket as he finally walked up to them.
"What are you doing here so early, Neil?" Allen asked in a playful tone, adjusting both of his hands onto his sides with much confidence, and smirked.
"None of your damn business," Neil hissed while glaring at him; however, he was slightly blushing.
"Ah, so mysterious as usual, Neil. Do you act that way so Miki will think you're hot?" Allen joked and chuckled.
"SHUT UP! " Neil roared irritated and blushed furiously.
"Hey Neil... What were you holding?" Miki asked curiously, her voice full of innocence, and her voice caused the animal dealer to blush even more.
"Don't worry about it... " Neil muttered and looked away while blushing.
"Oh come on... It's gotta be something," Allen teased and chuckled.
Mako's voice was then heard from inside. "What's...What's going on?!"
Her brother's eyes grew wide at seeing the three at the door way and he scowled.
"What the hell Miki!? Having boys over at five in the morning!? THE HELL!?" Mako fumed and stomped over towards them.
"Sorry, I just wanted to give Miki this-" Allen tried saying politely; however, Mako pushed him away from the door while shouting enraged, "GET OUT!"
A solemn expression appeared on Allen's face as he brushed himself off and crossed his arms.
"Humph!" the hair stylist huffed, putting the rose into Miki's right hand, and stormed away.
"Good riddance..." Mako muttered bitterly and then hissed at Miki, "You have a minute to say goodbye to your boyfriend!"
Mako slammed the door with much force and entered into Miki's house.
It was an awkward silence for a few moments as they glanced at each other and both looked away blushing.
Neil then searched his right pocket for a moment and curiosity spread across Miki's face.
"What are you looking for...?" Miki questioned innocently and blinked repeatedly.
Finally taking his hand out of his pocket, a folded-up note was revealed in Neil's hand, and he handed it to Miki.
"It's the lyrics of the song you heard me sing," Neil informed quietly while closing his eyes, acting as if he didn't care; however, he was blushing.
Miki's eyes trembled of utter happiness as a smile formed onto her lips and she slightly blushed while opening the note.
"Thank you, Neil."
