Kalos was talking, but May tuned him out.

They were getting a short break because of the carnival, something about 'unnecessary to compete for audience,' and blah blah blah...

What was in front of her was more interesting.

Sora stood with Ken on her left and Leon on her right. The carrot top was trying to get the numbskull's attention by brushing his hand against hers. Predictably, she just moved more to her right which caused her to accidently bump into Leon, causing the usually impassive French acrobat to react.

May grinned to herself. She knew the silver hunk's secret.

Or should she say secrets?

She supposed they were related to each other, but it sounded even better if she said secrets. Really, it had taken her a while and a lot of Leon-watching to figure it out. He hid it so well, she had been baffled when she first came to that conclusion.

The first one was easy: Leon liked the redhead.

Why was still under scrutiny but in the long run it really wasn't important to May. The fact that he did proved a lot of entertainment for her since the little dummy was oblivious to it-though Ken's attempts at getting her attention was pathetically funny, May felt kind of bad laughing about it.

The second secret topped the whole scenario with a ridiculous load of whipped cream, fudge, nuts, and tons of cherries: The Pegasus of the Stage, the feared God of Death and the overall most wanted man in the circus world didn't know a thing about women.

She wanted to tell someone, but she knew people wouldn't believe her.

It took her a lot of reflection, starting with the issue of him dropping her during Dracula. When she was finally over him, she looked back at that moment and realized something mind blowing.

He had let go on accident.

When he had caught her after her special spin, she had looked up at him and in a moment of giddiness and flirtation, she winked up at him and offered him her neck with a smug tilt of her lips. She could recall his eyes had widened before he released her.

She had hit on him and freaked him out.

He realized his mistake and grabbed her before she fell, but that little action she did had startled Mr. Ice Block. She wouldn't be surprised if his other partners had done similar things.

That would mean he got the God of Death title on accident.

Boy oh boy...people would lock her up if she ever shared her theory, but she was confident in her assessment. May scrutinized his current reaction to Sora having bumped into him.

Stiff form, grey eyes still staring at his arm where they had contact with an intensity as if the redhead had pulled a sharpie out and drew a unicorn on his limb.

Female interaction was totally his Achilles' heel.

I wonder what it's like to have your body reacting to a crush without knowing what it is. She was positive that's what Leon was going through. She highly doubted he suddenly learned about women; he'd be reacting differently if he had. May blinked at that thought.

How would he be if he did realize it was a crush?

For a few seconds she played with the idea of telling him.

Nah.

This situation was better than cable.
