𝐇𝐎𝐖 𝐒𝐔𝐒𝐏𝐈𝐂𝐈𝐎𝐔𝐒.. ... featuring zanka nijiku
SYPNOSIS / rudo's starting to notice just how close you adn zanka are, it's strange considering how zanka is well, zanka. 'just good friends?' he thought. oh how wrong he was. CONTENT / mild language, heavy public displays of affection, rudo is oblivious.
CASE ONE: the jeep was overfull once again, you were stuck between zanka and rudo
enjin’s diving was reckless as always but on the rare occasion where the car wasn’t on the verge of tipping over you and zanka were still snug against eachother
rudo could hear zanka and your’s whispered conversations with and occasional giggle coming from you
legs pressed against each others, you hands covering one of zanka’s. how strange. he never once took zanka as the type to be that friendly with anyone, yet no one seemed to acknowledge it
CASE TWO: rudo absentmindedly walking down the hallway back to his room once everyone had headed in for the night - well almost everyone
‘BANG!’
“oh my gosh! sorry rudo!”
your voice cut through his world right after the door to some random closet hit him square in the face. his eyes opened, meeting yours and . . . zanka?
“are you alright? im so so sorry!”
your voice filled with worry almost making him forget you and zanka were in some closet
“he’s fine, ain’t ya?”
he watched zankas hand wrap around yours, pulling you away from the scene in the hallway. rudo’s expression could only be described as pure confusion, last time he checked both of your rooms were upstairs. really strange . . .
CASE THREE: everyone was in the mess hall, some random party riyo probably came up with. zanka did always call them an excuse for everyone to drink which is really obvious when you see gris and enjin having the time of their lives in the corner
speaking of zanka, he hasn’t seen him since this morning, or you. rudo has almost made it his personal mission to find out what’s up with the two of you
he’s basically covered the entire floor trying to spot you. he must have a sixth sense cause his eyes directly spotted you both leaning against each other again at the very back table
you mouth next to his ear telling him something as a smile creeps onto his face, then he turns to face you leaning in ever so slightly before your both rudely interrupted
“hey guys, what are we talking about?”
rudo’s presence has become painfully aware by the both of you who are now sitting up right clearly uncomfortable
“oh i-uh just mentioned i’m a bit tired, right zanks’ ”
he watched you nudge zankas side before yawning exaggeratedly
“uh yeah we’re gonna go”
zanka abruptly stood up followed by you
“goodnight rudo”
you smiled waving to him, hands then intertwining with zanka’s just like the other day. ok this is just suspicious . . .
CASE FOUR: team akuta had come back from an encounter with the raiders leaving you pretty beat up. rudo had gone with enjin to get you some of those fake flowers like he did with zanka a while back
this just happened to be the time everything clicked
he stood there as you held zanka’s face in your hands, his eyes slightly red and puffy, hurt written across his face
one of your hands pushed his hair off his forehead as you leaned down kissing him
“zanks’, baby don’t get upset i’m ok”
your voice was so sincere, a soft melody that seemed to calm him down. never in rudo’s very short time on this earth did he think you and zanka were dating
“yo rudo you good man?”
enjin asked, a heavy hand falling on his shoulder
“ohh, you didn’t know huh?”
rudo was long gone. too busy trying to wrap his mind around the new information
“i always thought they were so obnoxious about it, always up on eachother. y’know how many times semiu has found them in a storage closet?”
rudo thinks he might throw up
CASE DISMISSED.
