I just realized, this is the second last one! I didn't even notice, I've had so much fun writing these! Well, we're not done yet, so I hope you all enjoy this chapter!
"Hey there, cutie pie." A rather perfect looking girl giggles after not so accidentally bumping shoulders with the Shoku warrior. "What's your name?"
Raimundo grins sheepishly, letting himself get tugged away from the girl by the hand intertwined with his. "Sorry, already taken!"
She smiled and waved as the pair walked off. "Well if your ever looking for a good time, you know where to find me!"
Kimiko muttered something harsh under her breath. "You know where to find me!" She mimicked in a high pitched voice. "Like it wasn't obvious enough we were together!"
He let her seethe for a little bit as the couple winded their way through the metropolis that was the city of Hong Kong. He was as good as lost, but Kimiko seemed to know exactly how to get around, and he was just as good with letting her keep the lead while she was in this mood.
"What are you grinning about?" She finally asked at his chipper smile.
"Well, you're mad." He says, squeezing her hand.
"Of course I'm mad, I can't even go out in public without people trying to hit on my boyfriend."
He can only grin wider. "Please, Kimi, it's not even about me. They're all just jealous."
"And why would they be jelous, exactly?"
He stops them in the middle of the sidewalk, catching her off guard. Grasping her hand and cupping her cheek lightly with his other. "Because they know they can't compete with a girl like you."
Kimiko blushed furiously, bringing her own hand up to touch the one around her face. "You can only bring out the best in me."
