Kanokido week: day 3 - Seasons
"April showers huh?" Kido groaned as she watched the heavy deluge from inside the base, large pellets of water slapping against the windowsill, dull heavy clouds concealing the sky in a massive grey cloak. She snuggled herself out on the sofa, bunching herself up, tucking her face into her jumper's large neck, producing a faint whine in tedium. "More like April floods..."
"Yeah, I pity Seto, having to work in this weather." Kano smiled faintly. The dreary weather seemed to drag the entire world with it into a bleak shade of boredom and pallid lethargy. "Not to mention to the temperature!" Kano shivered, I his spine suddenly feeling like it was filled with an icy chill. "Isn't the heating on?!"
Kido peered down to look at her phone, reading it's display "I set it to come on around midday." She glanced over to Kano "Hey Kano, you want, watch a movie together?" He cheeks were radiating a slight flush, hidden only by here sweater's high neck.
Kano's face lit up at the pleasant surprise, both metaphorically and literally. "S-sure, Kido! Do you have any idea of what you want to watch?" He felt his cheeks heat up a bit.
"Ah, no not really..." Kido averted her eyes "I just thought I'd offer... Do you have any ideas yourself?"
"Well, not right now, I'll check to see what we've got..." Kano scratched his head as he wandered past Kido to their movie rack. He had lied. He knew what he wanted to see but saying what it was would just result in them both blushing profusely.
"I'll make us some hot chocolate." Kido said as she rose from the sofa. "You put on what you want in the meantime."
Kano watched her as she left the room, finding himself eyeing her entire figure; her verdant, lustrous hair, her beautifully formed cheeks, her smoothly angled behind, Kano quickly whipped the drool trickling down his chin. Oh my dirty, how scandalous indeed! Who was he to deny his own attraction to his old childhood friend? He quickly pulled the DVD from the shelf, popped the disk out and placed it into the player.
"Here you are." Kido returned, placing a pair of steaming mugs onto the coffee table that stood before the sofa, seating her, tucking her knees and making herself comfortable. "So what have you put on?" She asked, gently supping her chocolate.
A sheepish smile spread along Kano's cheeks, he took a seat besides her. "'Getting wet indoors'." His face was a warm shade of pink as he said it.
Kido nearly spat her coffee out hearing him say it,but she instead choked, paused, and swallowed the burning chocolate in her throat, slamming her hand against her chest as she tried to breathe. "T-the PORNO?!"
"Well it is cold and..." Kano paused a moment to gather his words, face burning. "And watching this sort of thing is a good way to produce body heat..."
"Yeah but not like this you dumbo!" Kido screamed, her face red with embarrassment. "And you better not be getting any ideas either because no way! Uh huh! No chance!" She was staking and pointing her hands at Kano hurriedly.
"Well if you want you can just eject the disk..." Kano responded to her accusative gestures with little concern. "It isn't like I'm forcing you." He took a swig of his hot chocolate, feeling it's warm sweet stickyness flow through his mouth and tongue.
Kido went quiet for a moment, her expression that of irritation, blushing intensely. She sighed in defeat "Oh fine I'll watch with you." She settled herself back down.
"That's better." Kano smirked. He threw his arm over Kido's back, causing her to look at him with a glare. "We'll be warmer if we cuddle, nee?" He winked at her, still flushed, especially over the gushing notices being played from the TV.
Kido didn't reply at first, responding only be cuddling closer to him, resting her head by his and clinging to his chest with her arms. After a minute, she planted a soft kiss on his cheek, muttering angrily to him "Stupid Shuuya..."
Kano chirped gleefully as he heard the words. Cuddling with hot chocolate on a rainy afternoon. Things could be slightly better, but they could also be a lot worse.
