"I trust you."
Even thinking that statement scares me a little, even though it is true. Perhaps it's because I've spent the majority of my life staying away from people, and preventing them from trusting me.
Or perhaps it's because I've allowed myself to trust someone before-only to find out that I was being used. You know what I'm talking about, don't you? Divine. His name is ironic. He was supposed to be my saviour, the father figure I never had, but he wasn't. No, he just wanted me because of my powers.
So it's pretty new for me, having someone want to be with me because I am just…me .The way you are .Its kinda scary. Because there is the chance you will turn around and walk away, and abandon me.I don't believe it will happen. Because I do trust you…
"Aki?"
Oops. Looks like I forgot where I …oh yeah, the garage at Poppo time , you're fixing up my D-wheel for me , so that I can duel for my licence tomorrow.
"What is it?"
"Sit on it for me. I adjusted the seat, and I need you to tell me if I made it uncomfortable."
I regard it dubiously. It's a half made the hell would I sit on it?
"What's wrong? Think I planted a bomb in there?"
A pause.
"Who knows? I may have…" You have a silly smile on your face-you are just teasing me. That's so out of character for you I have to laugh.
"Don't be dumb, you're too caring to do that." It's not the same as saying that I trust you outright…but it's a good start.
