"Nikujaga" - Beef stew/Beef and Potato hot pot

"Kowaii" - Scary

"Aree?" - Huh? (actually spelled are but since its already an English word, I put two 'e's)

"Oi" - Informal way of saying 'Hey' usually if you're saying you don't want someone to do something. like "Hey! get away from there!" - "Oi! Soko kara hanarero!"

I studied Japanese for a little bit a few years ago as an elective.

Chpt 4 - Holiday spirit for the snow cat and the blonde beast

"It's thanksgiving next week!" you seem to just about leap out of your skin like a four year old at a circus.

"Whats that?" Celty, Shinra and Shizuo look at you (Celty doing so in her Celty way.)

"Oh hold on. I know what that is. That's the western holiday celebrated. Something about Pilgrims and a feast or something. Basically its where they made an excuse to eat a lot. I don't know, I saw a few kids talking about it when I was in America."

Everyone tuned in to read Celty's message.

"Oh yeah I've heard of that! I read about it once, I believe. They make home cooked turkey and other side dishes" Shinra fixes his glasses

"We should celebrate!" You flail your arms in a spazzy manner, running to Shinra and Celty, pleading with them with your sad kitten eyes.

"Well, we most certainly Could... but.." Shizuo looks at Celty and Shinra

"I don't think any of us can cook" He says, leaning back in the couch and resting his eyes.

"Hmm... I do remember Yui's tonkatsu being very good" Shinra looks at Celty to see if she'd reassure him of Yui's skills.

"Uh I-"

Celty interrupts you by sticking her phone in your face.

"I remember! Can you show us again? Maybe you can cook! Shinra said it was really good! And it looks really yummy! I'll try to help if I can!"

"But-"

Shinra grabs your hands and shakes them

"Please?!"

After they finally convinced you to cook for them, the delicious aroma of bread-crusted tonkatsu wavers from the warm oven. You pull the silicon glove over your hand and reach inside to bring out your creation and cut it up to set on the table.

"Ohhhhh~!"

The three lean over the table and admire the golden delicious crispy meal and reach for their(only Shizuo and Shinra) chop sticks

"ITADAKIMASU!" Shinra proclaims.

"Uh...yea, itadakimasu." Shizuo didn't seem to be used to eating with others.

"Ohhh~! Oishi!"

You felt your ears go warm and you silently placed a piece in your mouth.

"But-"

"You should cook for us! Please!" Shinra beamed

Shizuo looked at you and smiled.

"It's good"

"I...I'll try not to disappoint you!"

You bowed and slammed your head on the table on accident. The room fills with laughter.

Warm steam puffs from your red-ish lips as you rub your cold hands together attempting to muster some warmth. You're thick double button coat over a fluffy sweater wasn't enough to keep the brisk air from brushing your skin and your hat was barely long enough to cover the top half of your red ears.

The soft cloth of Shizuo's scarf folds around your neck, he turns his head so you couldn't see him after he gave you his scarf... It was still warm from his neck. Shizuo stuffed his hands in his pockets as you walk next to him to a convenience store to get some test ingredients.

"What other dishes do you want with our meal?"

You said through the scarf that covered the lower half of your face.

"...Nikujaga, Stir fried bok choy..." He said with steam clouds wisping from his mouth with each word.

"Hmmm how about a hot pot?" You smile at him and his face glows a bit, without him really looking at you.

"That might be too much."

"Oh, you're right.. So a western style cooked turkey, tonkatsu, nikujaga and stir fried bok choy?"

"More Tonkatsu?"

"Well it's my best dish...it used to be the only thing I'd make.. What about dessert?"

"...Flan?"

"Hm? Okay, sure! I can make that. It's simple enough." You giggle a bit

"Wh-what?! Is something weird about flan?!"

"N-no its just I didn't think you'd like something so... sweet and non-macho xD" You continue laughing.

"Sh-Shut up! Fine! Don't make it then! not like i care..."

You look at him and smile.

"Of course I will. If Shizuo wants me to make it, I'll make it for him! ^^"

You stand with your hands behind your back and beam at him.

"...W..whatever..." He turns to hide his blushing face.

You pick out a few ingredients and hand them to Shizuo who is carrying a pile of things.

"Okay... I'll need..."

"Isn't this enough?!"

"Oh.. I'm sorry, I'll go get a cart, stay here!"

You scamper off with Shizuo's scarf flowing behind you.

He watches you run off and breathes deeply. Am I being mean? I gotta keep my cool... Does she think I'm mad? Is SHE mad? Was it too rash of me to give her my scarf? Does she think I.. l-l-...have feelings for her?! Th-thats not it! Is it?!

Shizuo screamed in his head and nearly pulls his hair out.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUGH! WHAT THE HELL?!"

Shizuo looked around and turned beat red. He silently sat back down next to the pile of items as you come running with a cart.

"H-here! Huff...huff..."

You lean on the handle of the cart and try to catch your breathe again.

"Why did you run?"

You try to gasp for air before you answer.

"I...didn't want you to wait in the cold..without your scarf"

Come to think of it, Shizuo isn't wearing a coat or anything! Why?

"Ah, Sh..Shizuo I..."

You plop your coat on his shoulders, his shoulders were to broad for the coat to be able to wrap all the way around him.

"O-oi! I'm fine! put your coat back on!"

"It's okay. I have a sweater ^^ and your scarf."

You press your face into the soft cloth and smile at the scent of Shizuo.

"I don't need-"

"Okay! Onto the dairy section.. milk..milk..."

Ignoring Shizuo, you walk through the isles in the non-heated convenience store and into the refrigerated areas.

"There they are!"

...I'm starting to doubt that I'm gunna be able to make any of this.. it's been a while since I've been in the kitchen..

Shizuo pulls you back as gently as he can and reaches into the icy freezer.

"I could have-"

"It's fine. It's too cold for you"

*Squeal~!*

"Hey hey, aren't those two like, the most totally cute couple ever?!"

"Shh! That's the Shizuo Heiwajima! You don't wanna get him mad!"

"Oh... you're right~! Kowaii~! How scary~! lets get out of here!"

Eventually the store was more or less empty and when they went to pay, the cashier was so scared, he forgot to charge for half of the items you got.

As you walk through the automatic doors, Shizuo stops and sighs.

"? Something wrong?" You look at him, a bit worried.

"...You're not... Scared?"

"Huh? *Aree? Of wh-what? Sh-Shizuo, if you're trying to scare me, i-its not gunna work! I-Is it the slasher? You're such a meanie, Shizu-cha-gasp"

I didn't mean to call him that! He's going to be mad!

Shizuo pauses for a bit and looks at you. He then slams his hand on his face and starts laughing so hard, he had to take a seat on the concrete wall behind him.

"You...You're so stupid...ha...haha...You make me la- pft...hahaha..laugh too much..ohh...hm..haha..." he puts his hand on your head and pets you with his masculine hands.

"Wh-what?! Shizuo! You meanie! I'm not stu-"

You felt a cold sensation land on your face and you nearly jump out of your skin.

?! Rain starts to pour down on you and Shizuo grabs your hand (literally grabs..it hurt a bit) and all the bags and starts to run.

"O-oi! I can walk on my own!"

He drags you under a little roof that shelters a few bikes chained to the poles.

"Are you okay? Are you light headed?"

He sits you down on the concrete wall behind you (oy vey...deja vu..?) and he kneels in front of you, nearly at eye level, he leans forward, holding your bangs up with one hand, the other he subtly places his hand on yours and presses your foreheads together.

You feel your face explode and you stagger back a bit and say "I'm fine!"

Shizuo sighs with relief.

You both look at your hands.

I should...let go. You thought.

His grip tightens and you felt your fingers wrap around his hand also.

...

Both your eyes start to close and you slowly lean forward..

Just as Celty's bike roars around the corner, you both swiftly pull backward before anything happens and Shizuo stiffly stands, trying to act as nothing happened.

Great...

"Are you two okay? I've come to pick you two up since its raining. Try not to get too wet." She typed.

Shizuo puts the bags in the little lift up compartment in the seat and sits down. You sit behind him and Celty wraps shadow helmets around your heads. Of course, this took away your view of Shizuo's face again. What was he thinking? Your face turns red and as the bike jolts forward, you tightly wrap your arms around him.
