ITS not that she was complaining but Aeschylus’ weight was on her, she’s also carrying her bag and his. Aeschylus probably was getting weary, thanks to that nosy guard.
Aeschylus’ orbs grew wider when he was gradually being put inside of her car, he was getting smaller and smaller as he stayed with her. She’s just a shocker to him.
“T-Thank you, uhm…”
“Sorry! I haven’t introduced myself… My name is Hussey Limana Aozora, you can call me anything you like.” She included her now middle name, she and her twin always do this as they’re used to Limana which were their mother’s last name because they just changed their last name into Aozora after their biological father came in their life and married their mother.
A small smile crept on his lips. “Thank you, Hussey.” He felt at least proud to himself when he didn’t stutter his words.
Grinning, she started the engine. “You’re very much welcome, Sky!” She beamed at him for a quick moment before turning her eyes straight to the front.
The young man couldn’t help but to give her mirthfulness laugh which she dearly listened to as the way he sounds was very soft and endearing to hear.
After he told her the way to his house the air fell silence, well, not until Hussey asked.
“Hey, Sky?”
He gave her a once-over then hummed, “Hmm?”
Hussey cocked her head by the way he answered her with the hum, it’s the hum that gets her going and he sounds so inviting.
She shook her head. “Never mind, I’ll tell you later.”
After a few minutes, they got to Aeschylus’ house, Hussey offered him to take care of his wounds but he kindly declined her that’s why they ended up arguing to each other.
Hussey doesn’t like making the argument long but Aeschylus was a different story, of course she would take every chances to get him agree because he’s such a cutie for her.
In the end, Aeschylus lose in their argument.
The guy swore he felt tingly whenever she would lean on him, the way their skin touch, the way she took care of him with gentleness, and even how she talked to him with fondness.
Everything he was experiencing was so new to him, he never experienced being close to any women other than his mother.
It’s because girls in school never took interests in him as they view him as a boring weakling, but all of the girls he sees in their school was contrary to what this lassie—that has a broad smile plastered on her face—was doing to him.
What’s more making him in dazed was the fact that the young lady’s a total package—sure, at first glance not all people will look at her for the second time or for so many times and not all people may take a liking in her unusual beauty but the way she radiates different colors in his eyes makes him want to stare at her exquisite features.
Not taking so long, Hussey successfully treated all the young man’s injuries.
When she looked up to him, she caught him staring at her that made her smirk stretched more than she did earlier.
Because of that, Aeschylus lurched and awkwardly brought his eyes to her perfect work.
Still staring, Hussey realized that Aeschylus have a side bangs, his side parting let a large portion of his bangs cover the right side of his face.
“W-What?” asked Aeschylus when he noticed she was still staring at her.
She shook her head. “Nothing, just failed to realized that I can’t see your right eye,” not so smooth but boldly she uttered.
That made him look away that the latter noticed his burning up face. “T-Thanks for all of these…”
Hussey chirped, “Don’t mention it!”
A warm smile was gifted for the young man, with his reddened face he averted his eyes from meeting with hers.
“Uhm, this may come out odd but what were you doing in there?” he composed a question that made both of her eyebrows raised.
“About that, I just wanted to be in a quiet place while waiting for my friend.”
From that moment, Aeschylus just noticed her position. She was squatting on the floor, her hands on his thighs drawing random shapes on his skin and what made his breath hitched was when she placed her chin on his knees.
This woman was unimaginably touchy.
She looked comfy there though.
The reason she was there squatting was because she lastly treated his sore ankles.
“Y-You should . . . uhh, y-you s-should—”
Smiling softly, she answered what he was about to say if it wasn’t for his fidgety tongue. “It’s okay, I already told her I’ll be going ahead from her.”
She was not the type of friend to ditch her friend for unfortunate encounters but that’s what happened when she met him though.
With his slightly calmed nerves he faintly apologized to her, “I’m sorry for dragging you into my own mess…”
Hussey let out an obnoxious laugh that somehow startled him. “Don’t be sorry, I’m happy I met you, actually—well I’m not happy I met you in that kind of situation but hey, I still met you and that’s great for me, though I wish that never happened to you…” she tried to make it at least truthfully, she was afraid that she might make him upset because of her choice of words.
Inside, she internally wanted to scratch and pinch herself if she ever made a wrong move to him. She sounded rushed and not confident with the words she vocalized.
The young lassie panicked when he didn’t reply to her.
Hearing her reason really made him guilty but it made him feel okay after hearing her sternly denied his apology.
“Hey…” she softly called his attention as she slid her palm on the back of his hand to reassure him. “Not even a moment I thought it as a troublesome,” she heartily admitted.
Tears shimmered in his eyes that made Hussey panicked again, she began to stood up and cupped his face to catch his tears that was forming in his eyes.
Pain sheeted through her with a terrible intensity when she caught his swollen eyes and his nose that was turning scarlet while he sniffled.
Her shoulders slumped down, she repeatedly swallowed as if she felt like if she spoke she might have ended up choking from her own spittle.
“Sky~ you’re crying again!” she whined, Hussey fastened her thumb to wipe away his tears. “Is there something hurting you again? Tell me.”
Concern was obvious in her voice, he frantically shifted his eyes on her orbs until he fixed his gaze on her stunning face.
“S-Sorry. . . .”
Her eyes flickered with distressed, still wiping his tears. “Just know you’re not getting rid of me, okay? From now on. . . .”
