Chapter 5: Talking

"Fakir, share the bed with me" Ahiru offered blushing

Fakir looks at her surprise

"What are you talking about? What are you planning to do with me?" Fakir said covering himself with a blanket, Ahiru frown

"Excuse me but I am the girl here!" Ahiru said pointing to herself "Fakir…" she calls again

"What?" Fakir this time is positioning himself to sleep

"Thank you" she pause for a minute, she watch Fakir turn his head on her "Thank you because you have done a lot for me and all I can do is offer you a space in your bed, so please don't turn me down" she said shyly

Fakir stare at her as his hands began to travel towards her face and gently caress them;

'F-fakir…' she thought she let him touch her face

"Thanks but I am fine here. Don't worry I am not asking anything in return. Besides didn't I promise you that I'll stay with you." Then he reluctantly pulls his hands away from her and turns his back on her; Ahiru was quite disappointed too

"F-Fakir…" She calls again

"What?" he reply but this time he didn't look back at her and he's getting annoy with her

"Ah… you see… well…" Ahiru's not sure if she should bring it out or not…

"I am waiting?" He said coldly

"Ah.. .Fakir, you don't understand" Ahiru said getting worry

"Just what are you trying to say anyway?" Fakir ask as he sat up again, Ahiru gulp

"Well, I am terrible sleeper when I sleep as a girl so… imightfelloveryou!" she finish

"…"

'Phew, I said it' Ahiru let out a big sigh

"Ahiru know what, even a girl I still can't understand you" Fakir said straight forward, this made Ahiru mad

"Grrr… What are you deaf? Didn't you hear me?" she snaps

"What did you call me, you stupid duck!" he retorted

"What I am trying to say is that, I might fell over you during my sleep so I suggest you sleep with me here in the bed!" she said again, blushing

'Now, he's going to laugh…' she said and frowns when she heard him laugh, and really hard.

Ahiru's face turn really red and feeling so embarrass. She angrily pulls her cover up to her head and angrily pushes her body down the bed

'Stupid, why did I ever mind saying it to him' Ahiru said to herself while trying to sleep when he felt the bed futon lower a bit.

Slowly, Ahiru pulls her blanket down and look to see what it was. It was Fakir besides her in the bed facing the ceiling with his eyes close. Ahiru was about to go to sleep too, when Fakir said something.

"Look, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to laugh at you" He said, still eyes were close

Ahiru shook his head gently

"Ie, It's okay. You see I believe it is already our daily routine. You teasing me while I am expectedly to react and then will fight then we will be okay again." Ahiru explains then giggles as she tried to remember them while Fakir is attentively listening to her

"About that too, I know you are getting really irritated with me, right?" Fakir ask again

"Well, I'd be lying to you now when I say no. But you know what my day wont seems to be completed when you are not there to tease me" Ahiru replied before yawning and falling into sleep "Good night Fakir" yawn

Fakir only this time opened his eyes and looks the sleeping form of Ahiru besides him

"Thank you, you just don't know what it means to me" he smile and close his eyes too but before he falls to his deep slumber "Good night my stupid duck"

The next day, Ahiru help Fakir in doing breakfast and when they are about to be finish she went back to their room carrying a bag of bird food. She carefully pours some in a small bowl and when she opened the window, flock of birds immediately flies towards her and the bowl. Fakir takes went to the room to see what the noise is all about was and was startle when he saw Ahiru drowning from the flock of birds.

After the unusual accident Fakir saw earlier they began eat their breakfast with their normal routine.

"Hey Ahiru, tomorrow we will start to go to school again" Fakir said before drinking his coffee

"Back to the ballet school" Ahiru frown as she remember her old days where she is always tease by Mr. Cat and how she always have to stay for detention because of her clumsiness and wrong sided footing. Fakir heard her let a depressing sigh.

"We have no choice. If everything is going back to normal, we also have too. Besides I need to search something on why is this happening again together with that familiar aura before I began writing the story" Fakir explains

"Oh that's right, you will began searching again at the library right. So everything will be back to its normal routine. Well except for the fact where I will change to Princess Tutu and collect the prince's heart." Ahiru pause for a moment "But anyway I guess I'll be busy with my practice" Ahiru points out and was about to say another word when Fakir cut her

"You don't have to practice alone, I'll teach you everyday myself and you can help me with my research" He said smiling to her

Ahiru who is surprise look at him and ask "Promise?"

Fakir gave her an assuring smile, those deadly smile he only give to her "A knight never goes back from his words especially when he had gave it to a princess"

"Thank you that would be very nice Fakir"
