Memories (Lio Fotia x Female Reader)

Chapter 6

"I'm Lucia, nice to meet you!"

Galo had presented you to his other teammates, Lucia, Remi and their chief Ignis, and the new elements, Gueira and Meis.

"Y/N! We meet again!" the joyous Aina said

Looks like she's in better conditions than the day before

You chatted with all of them. Truly a nice rescue unit. The thought that you could have been possibly arrested by them if you did something as a Burnish didn't scare you.

Then boom bam, a thunderstorm. Screw the metheorological previsions. You looked worried outside of the window. Nobody had brought an umbrella with them.

"What should I do now?!" you thought.

"Why don't we all stay here for the night?" Ignis proposed "There are enough beds for everyone, it should be okay."

Let's admit it, you were kinda scared of sleeping there.

The night came, and everyone went to sleep. Everyone, except you.

You pretended to sleep. Yeah they were nice, but you still didn't know them at all, and you didn't trust them enough to sleep. What if they steal something while you sleep? Damn thunderstorm.

Then you heard someone walking. You were ready to raise your fists, and as they approached you, you grabbed their pygiama and slammed them on your bed, blocking them.

It was Lio.

You felt kinda stunned but you still held him firmly, on top of him. After all, you didn't know what he wanted.

"You're certainly pretty strong" he smiled. The first smile you had seen on his face. It was kinda cute.

"What do you want?" you ignored him.

"Chill, I just wanted to talk" he answered.

You let him go and he sat on your bed.

"I am curious about something" he said with a cold look.

He looked like somewhat extremely serious, like he wanted to ensure something that's been troubling him.

"What's your goal?" he asked.

You didn't know how to respond. You didn't have any goal at all, and you didn't even know what he was referring to.

"What are you talking about?"

"I'm talking about your presence. What do you intend to accomplish? Our friendship just because we're heroes?"

What the heck?

Then you understand. He was talking about those ladies in the pizzeria the day before, talking mostly with them and fangirling.

"I don't want to be friends with someone who wants to be it just because I'm a hero or something like that" he said. You were sure he wanted to appear cold and full of authority, but in his eyes you could see a sad expression, the expression of someone who doesn't want to know a bad answer.

You slighly smiled, preparing to answer.

"Haha, it's nothing like that Lio-"

Then his stomach rumbled.

He looked pretty embarassed and blushed. Finally, some other expressions rather than his staring one.

Wait, why are you thinking this again?

You started laughing. It seemed like your thought was also true: he didn't eat anything from the day before.

"Wait for me here, I'll prepare you something" you say between a laugh and a smile "and then I'll give you my answer"

Lio wanted to refuse the thought, but he secretly thought you were so pretty when you laughed.
