First five asks get kisses!! – Two of five.
Rantaro was a mystery. One could never tell what he was thinking. He seemed to know too much, but never shared more than necessary. It made him suspicious, in any given scenario. Maki wasn’t much different. Save for the fact she didn’t carry the air of seeming to know things.
For some reason, they seemed t run into each other alone quite a bit. Was he trying to seek her out? She couldn’t tell. He wasn’t pushy, but he did often seemed concerned. Like he wanted to help, but didn’t know how. Today’s run in finds them unusually close.
If this had happened any sooner, she might have pushed him back. The part of her that didn’t want to rely on anyone still wanted to. But... there was no need for that. He was... she couldn’t necessarily say trustworthy. Reliable, perhaps. And he didn’t try to pry things out of her.
She leaned, pressing a quick kiss to the corner of Rantaro’s lips. What was the intention? Perhaps a thank you. In any case, her cheeks flushed. She stepped back, and turned away from him.
