6. Small of the back
Clearly, by now everyone was accustomed to see the two together more often. Even the old ladies of the neighborhood keep teasing the hunter when he is out alone either to walk or to get some errands. To be honest, it does not bother the young man that much because it is true. though the ladies always manage to make him fluster and flee away before they start asking more private questions.
Opening the steel door, the sound of its joints resonated through out the sweet house. Man, he should oil this bloody damn door. Stepping in, it’s rarely to see the living quarter empty; either Vashyron or Leanne would be around. A weird sound came from the huntress room so by his instincts he approached her room stealthily. It might be another monster, but he learned his lessons twice to not enter where she is without knocking at least. Leaning on the door, he listened carefully to distinguish the sounds as Leanne’s coughing. The weather was still cold therefore it does not surprise him if the woman got sick. Although, she was preaching them week ago not to lighten their clothes just because the sun is out. oh boy…
Knocking softly on the door so he wont freak her out. The blonde permitted him to enter, which he walks in afterward. Leanne cracked a joke about how Zephyr actually knocked on the door and not kick it down to see what’s wrong with her. Jeez Leanne. You know how to make the lad fluster. The hunter walked closer to the female who stood near her window staring at the cogs moving in the same mechanical speed as people down the street going and coming by. Her coughing was not serious, thankfully, but it still worried the young male. Another cough was heard from the huntress. Azure eyes stared at the blonde, she would not want to be a burden on them but her health comes first. Good thing that they have a coughing medicine and it seemed she did drank some of it.
The medicine is not magic potion. It will take a while until it kicked in and cure the coughing. Hesitantly, his right hand reached to rub her back. It’s the least thing he could do to lessen her pain. The huntress does not seem to mind his kind gesture. In fact, her reward was more enough for him–her smile. He must protect this smile. After all, this smile what made him the man he is now. Leanne is irreplaceable being in his life. He could not fathom a day without her presence around him. Heh, maybe as the old ladies said a while ago ‘meant to be together’…maybe. Ultimately, she is his own star from heaven.
“How about you lay down? In order for the medicine to work; you need to rest..come on.”
His right hand trailed to grab her hand and guides her back to her bed. Tucking her in, he pulled the chair closer to her bed side to sit beside her.
“Go to sleep. Heey stop smirking like that sheesh…don’t make me tickle you to sleep.
