Koh could officially say he had no clue what was going on.
He was still stuck on the fact that Sayo had literally carried him all the way to a portal with her small hands. She threw him on the couch and had just left him there, shaking and violet eyes burning bright. After all, they were close in height. Had to admire the strength in that.
Then she was rushing about her Tamer Home. His eyes caught a glimpse of her own, narrowed and frantic as she moved through the room, contacting numbers and setting up something. He couldn't see her computer, but whatever it was, the security was terrifying. It was going to be impossible for something to get in.
It might be even harder for him to get out. Koh looked around, hearing her mutter, to see two familiar cats curled up on the other side of the sofa. Their tails swished and they watched him with blue and purple eyes.
He tried to ignore it, looked at Sayo again. There was guilt in her eyes, the most human thing he had seen in her since the day they had met. Guilt and fear and anger. She was going to tear herself apart.
Honestly, after the toying around that had happened, he should want that. But he didn't. He wanted it to stop.
Now, Koh was not stupid. He was in fact very smart. Still, he was in a room with his rival, a cute girl who looked stressed out and somehow still cute and he wanted her to calm the hell down. So what did he do?
He walked over and moved to get in her face. Her hackles went up and she raised her hands to push him off. He leaned forward and kissed her, open-mouthed. For a moment, she was completely still, fight-or-freeze-or-flight taking over. Then she reacted and kneed him in the groin.
He probably deserved that one.
