[RL with Akako-Time for some love confessions]

[clockmaster]

Human were so strange, Watson thought, they make a big deal of everything, especially emotions. Animals were easier. You meet your partner, you stay with him, and you breed with him. Humans, though, were odd and keep going on circles. Literally sometimes.

His master was walking from one side of the living room to the other, visibly nervous and wanting for something. Watson moved her head and looked at him upside down. That was unusual, he was never that nervous, or producing that much pheromones.His master stopped at his track when the bell rang, and looked at the door like with a glint on his eye, like they were heaven's gates.

"Wish me luck." he murmured to Watson a few seconds before than went to the door to opening. From his perch on the top of the stair, she saw the red head girl his master was always after.


Maybe human weren't so odd after all.

Once the tea was prepared, he turned to the living room and offered a cup to Akako . That's going to be my death Hakuba mused, staring at the beautiful girl in front of him.

"You want to know the truth? What’s been going on inside my head? Well here it is. I’ll bare my soul to you, drop all my walls and defenses I’ve set up over the years. I’ll tell you here what I’ve been to afraid to say out loud, at least to your face. I love you. I don’t know quite when it happened, but it did. I don’t think it was when I first met you, though I did find you physically attractive then. It could have been after I got to know you. Your personality did draw me to you more and more as I got to know you better. But you loved someone else. I have fallen in love with you. I allowed myself to have feelings for you and you dug yourself into my heart. I opened myself up and you snuck inside. I can’t stop the way I feel about you. I’ve tried." Hakuba sighed and told her about his conversations with Kuroba and Tyki, but he didn't tell her about Tyki's dark side. There some secrets that that needed to be respected.

"I never thought you would respond the way you did. I never thought you would go for it. I could be egotistical and think who wouldn’t take up an offer like that, but I’m not egotistical. I didn’t thought you liked me like that. I guess I was wrong."

Hakuba felt his face go warm and his heart beat faster.Now time for the Apocalypse.

That was a confession if she had ever heard one, and Akako had heard a lot in her days. Who knew blondie was such a romantic at heart?

Not that she was complaining.

The witch was silent for a few moments after he stopped talking. There was something she had to know first... just to make sure it was really him and not one of her spells. For being so popular with the male population, she really didn't know the first thing about being honestly and truly loved.

"I have to ask you something, Saguru," she said as she fiddled with her empty teacup. "This isn't one of my spells at work, is it?" It was a blunt question, and she wasn't sure if he could answer honestly. But she had to try.

Hakuba looked at her in the eye. He allowed himself such thoughts from time to time too.

Being the analytical man he was, he studied every moment , every conversation they share every second they been together and conclude that he wasn't acting like the other boys around her. Like a fool in love, yes, but at the same time different.

He took Akako's hand and put it over his chest, she could felt the pounding of his heart through the clothes.

"I don't think so, Akako."

Akako's hand closed around the front of Hakuba's shirt, and she pulled him forward until her nose was almost touching his. "I'll still have slaves, you know," she said, "Although none of them will matter anymore."

"I know. I will respect that if it make you happy." he hoped that he didn't sound as pathetic as he thought.

"It doesn't," Akako responded, "But I have a reputation to uphold you know." She chuckled to herself and kissed him again.

That works for me Hakuba thought, after all he was still going to see Tyki.

He mover his hand to her her shoulders, softly caressing the long hair,his body leaning towards her. She tasted like the tea, and smelled of powder and soft perfume.

Watson made a sound, but they were too busy to pay attention to the hawk at the moment. Hakuba noticed, thought, that it was a content sound, like she was encouraging them.
