A/N: Hey guys Panic ONCE AGAIN. This chapter is very very Fluffy lol but it was worth it.
Shoo would also like to say something so you'll see that down yonder
A/N2: Hello everyone! Shoo here, Panic wanted me to put a word in, so. If you guys have anything to say about this, then go ahead and say whatever you want to. Cause we like it when we get good comments. And, if we can get enough people to like it, and say they'd like another, we'll do a sequel. Just for you guys!
Wally sighed a little bit, having lugged the stupid toolbox the whole way. He looked up at Kuki after what felt like hours of walking. "This thing is fucking HEAVY." He said loudly. He quickly switched arms, continuing to drag it along the ground. Finally, then reached the building, knocking. "Oh, your back." He said softly. He then grabbed the toolbox, which had everything in it. He nodded before motioning them into the house. He pointed to a room. "You are welcome to stay here. And help yourself to the cola." The person said. He stood up, being joined by the other members. Then, they all turned to them. "We only have one bed, you are welcome to use it. Then you guys can go where ever it is your going in the morning."
"Thank you" said Kuki politely as she made a bee-line for the bed. she quickly jumped onto the bed before setting up and motioning for Wally to sit down. " Today was an interesting day" she said with a soft sigh. "How are you Wally?" She asked just a bit worried.
Wally shrugged, sitting next to her. "I dunno." He said with a sigh. "Too many moments of 'you almost getting killed'." He groaned before sighing, laying back against the headboard. "I've been so worried about you getting killed." He said softly. "And, when we came out of the portal, and you weren't there, I freaked out a bit." He said softly. "But, you know...only cause we're really close friends and all, and friends worry about friends." (Foot in mouth time) He then facepalmed, shaking his head. "Ignore me."
Kuki grew silence for what seemed like eons until she placed a hand over Wally's. " Yes... good friends" she said with a hint if sadness in her voice. " We are close friends aren't we?" she said in a slight questioning tone. Kuki looked over to Wally's face before giving his hand a light squeeze. " I'm happy that you worry about me because I worry a lot about you too" she said in a small serious tone. " well you know because we ARE good friends after all!" She quickly added.
He looked at her...then blushed slightly. "You sounded sad..." He said softly, not moving his hand, like he usually would. "D...do you..." he froze for a moment before moving closer to her. "Would you...like..to be more than just friends?" He said, whispering the last part.
Kuki blushed furiously as he moved closer. Oh god he knows now doesn't he? Oh god oh god. Kuki tried desperately to find somewhere else to look other then at Wally. She suddenly took an interest in the old wood floor. Her ears turned a bright red as she tried to think of something to say.
He looked over at her, a deep scarlet now coming across his face. He stared at her for a moment, then back at the ground. "I...I'll leave the question out there for a while..." He said softly. "But, my answer, is yes. I'd like to be more than just friends..." He said softly, then laid his head on the pillow and closed his eyes slightly. "Night, Kuki..."
Kuki stared at the back of Wallys head for a few moments, face still as red as a cherry. Quietly getting off the bed Kuki went to the window to sort things out. She looked up quietly at the sky, stars rippled across the dark blue giving off natural light in waves. It was a beautiful thing. She glanced back at Wally then back to the sky letting out a tiny " me too.." before falling asleep at the window.
Wally sat up quickly, thinking that he'd be back in his normal room...though seeing that he was still back in the room from yesterday...with Kuki, whom had fallen asleep by the window. He slowly walked to her, picking her up and laying her down where he had been. He took the rifle and quickly walked downstairs, sighing. The Delightful Children were all scattered about the house again. "Ah, your awake." They all said at once. "Yeah, I am." He said softly, looking out the window. He then sighed a little bit, holding the gun to him a little.
-skip to an hour later-Kuki woke up to blinding light and a warm bed. " wha-" She quickly shot up recalling the events of last night. Her face grew red once more as she quietly got out of bed and headed to the window where she had fallen asleep. With a quick sweep of the streets she headed to the door. where did Wally go? did he leave her here? she thought to herself as she began calling for Wally " Wally where are you!"
Wally stood up and walked upstairs, looking at her. "Oh, good morning..." HE said softly, smiling slightly. He then set the gun down again, leaning against the door. "So, how are you feeling this fine morning?" He asked, smiling, trying to make the atmosphere of the place seem lighter than it actually was.
Kuki grew silent as she saw Wally walk over. Without much thought she threw her arms around Wally in a tight embrace " I thought you left me.." said she quietly into his shoulder before leaning her forehead against the crook of his neck. " I thought you left me..." she repeated once more.
Wally blinked...then smiled slightly, hugging her tightly. "I'd never do that..." He said softly. "Only a heartless bastard would do that... And I am not one of those." He said softly. He slowly kissed her cheek, still smiling.
A calming quiet befell the two has Kuki hugged Wally tighter. A small blush came to her face as she got an idea. Kuki smiled lightly against Wally's neck giving him a quick smooch on the lips before running off into the other room to get her gun,her face heated as if it were on fire.
Wally stared forward for a few minutes, trying to register what had just happened. And whether to call that a real 'kiss' or not, seeing as it was so quick. He quickly stood up, scrambling to grab his magnum, then putting it into it's holster, smiling. "They got us a change of clothing and everything. So...get changed...and...let's go..." He said softly, still blushing.
Kuki glanced at Wally as she accepted the new clothes. She quickly walked back into the room, closing the door behind her. After a few minutes she came out in a new green button up shirt. The sleeves were too long, going just a bit pasted her hands as the bottom was the same length of her sweater. She stood with a small frilled skirt on (she decided to keep the leggings.)
Wally had taken off his orange hoody, for once, revealing the white no-sleeve shirt. He sighed as he quickly used some of the water to wash his face and such. He sighed as he put on a new pair of jeans, a small sigh escaping as he kept the white shirt, not putting on the hoodie. It was too warm outside for it, so. He sighed as he looked over at Kuki, blushing slightly. "You look nice." (Translation, You look absolutely sexy in a button up shirt)
Kuki smiled as charmingly as she could at Wally "Thanks.I never thought I'd be getting dress up to fight my way through a war zone." she chuckled as she grabbed her rifle and drank a little water from the bottle Wally was using . " Ready to go?"
He nodded slowly, standing next to her, having the magnum drawn. He then turned to the Delightful Children...saluting after a moment. "Thanks." He said softly. They all saluted back before saying. "Good luck." They said before turning around and going back to what they were doing. He slowly started walking towards the north again. "Come on." He said softly.
Kuki and Wally Walked silently through the empty street, being careful to avoid central park. " What do you thing Nigel is doing right now?" She asked Wally, turning to stare at him;Curious about his speculation. She reached for his hand but paused half way through. She frowned slightly remembering that she hadn't give Wally an answer to his question. Butterflies filled her stomach as she remembered his words. Quietly she brought her hand back to her side.
Wally smiled slightly. "Probably punching someone in the face, or doing something awesome." He said softly. He then shrugged. "But, you'd never know..." He then noticed her hand, debating on putting his own hand to hers...but he decided not to, seeing her pull it back. He looked over to the side with a small smile. "I wonder how everyone back in our own time is going..." He said softly, frowning slightly.
-Transition to them getting into northern downtown having to go through a mall derp-
Kuki brought her rifle to her chest as she entered the mall. They could set up base here and replenish their stock while resting for a bit. The walk here went without any trouble but that just signaled that the journey ahead would be twice as hard. Maybe it was just her worrying too much. The few lights in the mall flickered in an attempt top stay alive as she searched for a fountain. It was tiring to walk a whole half a city in the day. Finding a bench to sit on Kuki sprawled out on it giving a loud sigh.
Wally sighed softly as he sat on the ground, drinking a little bit of the water. "Jeez...such a long walk. And nothing happening." He said with a slight frown. He then looked at her, laughing softly. "I'm guessing boredom hit you too?" He asked, laughing once again. He stood up slowly, looking around. "Stay here..." He said softly, walking towards a store. As soon as he was inside, a shot fired off somewhere near where Kuki was. He quickly turned around. "Uh...Kuki...maybe you should come here." HE said as he walked to her, holding out his hand. "And don't let go..."
Kuki blushed slightly as she took his hand, not hearing the shoot that had been fired. She quickly took the time to take notice of her surroundings as Wally led her back in the direction he came from. She quickly wrapped her arms around his arm and looking suspiciously. Something didn't seem right about this mall.
