"And then, Ta-kun, you said, 'I love you Haruko,' and gave me the most
passionate kiss ever!"
Haruko wrung her hands together and pursed her lips, while Naota inched away.
"Naw, I don't think so, Haruko." Naota screwed up his face and looked Haruko up and down.
It had been almost a year since he and Haruko (And with a little help from Atomsk) had single handedly blown up the city of Mabase. Then Haruko had left Naota for seven months, only to return. As soon as Naota saw her, his stomach had dropped. His mind filled with the image of him kissing her.
Of course, Haruko turned it around into something she could mock him about. Telling stories of their future together was one way she horrified him, the next was blowing him or even giving him kisses. But all the same, Naota was glad to have Haruko home again.
Haruko looked back at Naota. "You don't think we'll have a future together?" her expression softened and her voice dropped.
Naota took up a look of slight alarm. "Well, we could, but. Haruko, your several years older than me, and you're an alien."
Haruko raised her eyebrows, then slumped back onto the pillow. She then pulled the covers over her body.
"Lets go to bed, I'm spent."
Naota looked at her with fond eyes. Sighing, he twisted around and turned off his bedside light, then snuggled in next to Haruko. He decided it was better just to snuggle in with Haruko than to argue with her to get in her own bed. Before Naota closed his eyes, he glanced at Haruko's sleeping face. Carefully, he brushed a strand of peachy hair off her cheek and behind her ear. He then sat up a couple inches and planted a soft kiss on top her head.
"Goodnight, Haruko."
Naota turned around and pressed his face deeply into the pillow. As he fell asleep he felt Haruko's arm sneak under his waist and pull him to her.
Naota sighed and didn't protest, but instead dreamed of peachy-haired little girls and boys.
