The Mysterious Kokichi Kinnie

Chapter. 14 Night Flight!

    WHOOOOOOOOSSHHHHH!!!! Himiko's broom zipped through the night sky like a shooting star. Kokichi was behind Himiko whooping like a wild boy. Under the circumstances, he was actually enjoying himself.

    "A WHOLE NEEEEW WOOOOORRRLLLLLD!!!" Kokichi sang out. Himiko rolled her eyes in delight and giggled. She loved that Kokichi was such a goofball. 

   "Wanna do a loop-de-loop?" Himiko asked. Kokichi nodded his head vigorously. 

   "YES! YES! YES!!" he exclaimed. Laughing, Himiko steered her broom high up into the clouds until they were upside down. Himiko finished the loop right through a puffy cloud. Kokichi got a bit of water from the cloud on him, but he laughed out loud with glee. 

   "Ooo! Ooo! Do a barrel roll, Himiko!" Kokichi suggested. 

  "Nyeh...okay, here we go!" Himiko sped up ahead and begun to spin her broom in a corkscrew-like motion. Kokichi held up his arms as if he were on a roller coaster.

   "WHOOO-HOOOOO!!!!" he shouted. "WHOOOAAAA!! WHOOOOAAAAA!! WHOOAAAAA!!" He exclaimed everytime Himiko's broom spun around. The barrel roll came to an end and Kokichi looked like he had just went through a tornado. His wear was all wacky...wackier than usual, anyway, his eyes were wide, and his smile was so big it shone in the night sky along with the moon.

   "Have fun?" Himiko asked with a sly smile. Kokichi laughed, probably harder than he had in quite some time.

   "YES!!!" he replied and reached out to hug Himiko. "This is probably THE coolest thing to have ever happened to me!!" Himiko blushed and smiled bashfully. 

  "Well, remember, it has to be kept secret," she reminded him.

  "Himiko...I am NEVER telling ANYONE about this," Kokichi replied. "I get to be the only one to see you do magic, I get to fly on your broom, and...and...do whatever else comes with your magic! And...I get to do it all...with you. I...don't think Makoto or Nagito can be considered lucky compared to me." Himiko blushed again. Kokichi looked into Himiko's eyes and took her hands in his. "I get to do it all with you," he repeated in a soft voice.

   Oh, my gosh! Oh, my gosh, Himiko thought. Is this the moment I've been waiting for?! Okay, calm down! Calm down! 

  Kokichi leaned in closer to Himiko's face. She feel feel the warmth of his body heat as his lips drew nearer to hers. He lifted his hand to caress her face. Himiko felt as if her heart was about to burst out of her chest. She closed her eyes, waiting for Kokichi to press his lips against hers and whisk her away to a level of pure ecstasy. 

   "HIMIKO!!!" Kokichi screamed in her face. Himiko snapped back into reality and looked at Kokichi in shock and annoyance. He was frantically pointing behind her at an airliner barreling towards them! Himiko swerved her broom out of the way just in time! Kokichi and Himiko were breathing heavily at having barely avoided being whomped by a plane.

   "Nee-heehee...well, if I were a Tsumugi who liked puns, I'd say that was just 'plane' crazy, don'cha think?" Kokichi joked. Himiko forced a laugh. That stupid plane, she thought to herself.

   "Well, that's okay," Himiko replied with a tone of slight disappointment. "We need to go help Kiki anyways." Himiko steered her broom down towards the city below them, a bit miffed that she didn't get her kiss.
