Yang POV
I looked over at Agony from what he's saying. "I know it's stupid but still, I heard that's what friends do" he said as he adjusted his seat to make it go down lower.
"Oh, so you consider us friends now huh" I support my upper body through my right arm which is on top of my leg.
"Better to have friends than enemies right?" he leaned back on his seat "Plus, how can I possibly deny any relationship from a cute girl" he suddenly adds.
"Oooohhh… flirting with me now huh? You're gonna have to do better than that you know" I crossed my arms as I took a sip of the drink. A bitter taste came only to be replaced by something sweet. I feel lighter, more calm than I had been a moment a go. "Alright, fine, give me your best shot at flirting, if you do great then I'll tell ya" I challenged him.
"Can't we just get this over with?" he asked with a jokingly annoyed tone.
"No, I want you to flirt with me" I said acting all cutely, joking with him.
After a few more seconds of silence he begins. "Yang, I know we've only just met but I think I should be the one to tell you this…" This takes me by surprise since he sounds so serious. What is he trying to do here? "Yang… People have been saying something behind your back and I'm guilty of it as well…" My eyes widen at this. 'People have been stabbing me at my back? And to think Agony also agrees…' I feel hurt and depressed over that idea. "I really do believe it to be true so Yang I just think you should know what I've been saying behind your back…"
I mustered up my courage and then let Agony proceed. "What've you been saying?"
"Nice ass!" He suddenly screams, pumping a huge thumbs up right on my face and a silly grin on his own face. It took me some time to recover and processes what just happened before finally I let it all out.
"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!" I clutched my stomach out of laughter "That was horrible! Absolutely horrible!"
"I tried my best…"
"Are you serious?! AHAHAHAHA! I can't even-" I tried to recompose myself and then said "Don't you know how to actually properly flirt with a girl?" I receive a shake of the head, telling me that Agony is actually socially awkward when it comes to flirting with girls. "AHAhahah…" finally my laughter died down "Well, it was at least amusing and thank you for noticing my nice ass" I winked at him "But what do you do if you were to flirt with a girl? Nothing?"
"Usually I annoy the hell out of them, but I've been… adjusting…" he said, playing with his hands.
"Awwww… don't worry about it!" I said, lightly punching his shoulder. "I can help you out in things like that!"
Silence enveloped us, it was a comfortable one, like it was pretty open for us. I sipped again at the tea, calming myself. I looked over at him, a small smile in his face.
"When I was young" I started my story "It was very fun, playing with Ruby and my mom and dad and mom was jus G, she's super mom basically. Baking us cookies, playing with us and teaching us all of these weird and awesome stuff. It was the best kind of childhood a kid can have" I looked over at him and I see him listening intently "But, my mother was still a huntress. She went on these different missions and she always went back, telling us about her adventures until one day, she didn't. She died during one of her missions, KIA. My dad shut down after that" tears began to roll down my face, I tried to stop them but remembering what happened to my family. My father getting drunk and depressed, slumped over at the couch, my uncle not even visiting us anymore and Ruby. "Ruby took it worse, I felt so helpless to see her just crying her eyes out. She won't accept food, presents, anything, she won't smile for a week" I cried, unable to control the tears anymore. Agony walked over to me and sat beside me, awkwardly patting me in the back and roughing up my hair. I grabbed his hand that was touching my hair keeping it away "Don't mess with my hair" I told him seriously with a deadly undertone.
"Hehe, at least the tears stopped" he said with awkward smile. When we were facing each other, I was surprised on how close the two of us were, his hands seemed rough beneath the bandages he wore. He wiped some tears away from my check then smiled at me "All better" he told me. I faced away from him, hiding the creeping redness in my cheeks.
"A-a-anyway, as I was saying" I cleared my throat as he laughed a little. "I knew that sulking wouldn't help us at all so I talked to dad who was drunk at the time. That's when he revealed it to me" I sipped at the tea "Me and Ruby are only half-sisters, I had a different mother than her. When I was born she left us and she was never seen again"
"So that's who you want me to find huh? Your 'real' mother"
"Yes, I want you to find her so that I can go to her and get answers straight from her. I need to know why she left and after everything that has happened to us, why didn't she return" I clutched my open palm into a fist. "I tried looking for her once, I was stupid back then. Bringing Ruby with me to a lead, I almost got the two of us killed by grimm, it was my uncle Qrow who saved us. I now know that I need to get stronger to find her and so that I can protect the ones I cared about. I may want to find her, but if the price is someone I love, then she can wait" I felt tired after telling my story so I leaned over at him, resting my head at his shoulder. He tensed up moving his hand every now and then. "You know, this is usually the part when the guy makes a move" I teased him.
"Like this?" he snakes his arm around me, moving me closer to him.
I feel comfortable around him, like a gentle breeze passing by, calming me.
"Wow, you are hot" he said suddenly to which I laughed.
"Agony" I looked at him in the eyes "I know that already"
"I-I mean you're warmer compared to others" he covered himself up. I giggled at his action. "You know what I mean Yang!"
I sighed as I calmed myself down, finishing my tea.
"Usually people would say I guess that you should just cry it out to make it easier in yourself but I have my own ideas…"
