the plane flew downwards, landing safely onto the runway. It took a turn, heading to one of the terminals.
'you almost here?' Connor texted
Mouse looked at her phone, seeing the text from Connor. She stood up and made her way to the front of the plane and exited.
The building was filled, there were a ton of people walking around. It was so noisy, Mouse couldn't even hear her own thoughts
'I just got off' Mouse texted
'I'm over by the exit' He texted back
'wow, so specific' Mouse said sarcastically
'you'll see me, just come over' Connor said one more time
Mouse made her way through the crowd of people, bumping into someone very so often. She made it to the exit and looked around a bit.
"Mouse! Over here!" A voice called out
To her side was 2 tall guys. The one on the right had dirty blonde, he wore a slim grey hoodie with black jeans. To the left, he was taller by a few inches. He wore a black t-shirt and a rested a jacket over his shoulders, his hair was black and combed back.
The blonde guy waved as Mouse got closer. She looked up at the two who towered over her.
"hey there, Rat" The guy on the right said
Mouse stared right at him with a fire in her eyes.
"Shut up, Monkey" Mouse she blurted back
Connor started laughing, he caught his breath and placed a hand on the guy beside him. He smiled and began to speak
"This is Garnt, Garnt this is Mouse" Connor said
"Nice to meet you" Garnt said extending out his hand
Mouse took his hand and shook it firmly. She gave him a warm smile.
"Ew" Connor said
"SHUT-" She hissed
"Shoulder get going then?" Garnt asked
Connor began to walk out the sliding doors, Garnt and Mouse following right behind him.
"So Mouse, how long are you going to stay here in japan?" Garnt asked
"as long as Connor lets me stay" Mouse said giving a death stare at the back of Connors head
"I'll kick you out after a week then" Connor said jokingly
Mouse kicked the back of his shin, almost tripping Connor in the process.
They stopped before a small white van. It stood as tall as Garnt who was 6 foot in height. Connor openned the door and Mouse climbed in. He sat in the drivers seat while Garnt sat in the passangers seat with Mouse in the back
"So why are you here, Garnt?" Mouse asked
"Connor asked for my help, thought it seems you're both doing fine" He answered
"Well thank god i don't have to be alone with this Monke" She pouted
The tall buildings of Tokyo rushed by. they were not far from eachother, it was able to fit a car barely in between.
Padestrians walked by, shouting and yelling at one another. Some hugged and some ran, Some laughed while some were crying. There was always some business man on a phone walking past
The sun was placed above their heads. The weather was warm and not too hot. The sky was clear from all clouds
The car finally came to a stop.
Connor turned to face Mouse "We're here"
The building in front of them stood at about 10 stories, tall enough to fit several dozen people. It had a worn out paint job on the outside. It was decorated with balcony's on each floor
"The outside doesn't look that bad" Connor reassured himself
"This is where you live? Seems like somewhere you'd live" Mouse smirked
"What the fuck is that supposed to mean?" Connor hollered
Garnt sat there, staring forwards, pretending that there wasn't a fight going on.
They stepped out of the car, leaving Garnt alone in there.
"Is he not coming along?" Mouse asked
"It's his car, I was just borrowing it to pick you up" Connor replied
They waved goodbye as Garnt drove off onto the road, dissapearing along with the other cars.
The two stepped into the building, being greeted by a stream of cool air. They walked over to the elevator and took it to the 6th floor
The door swung open and Mouse walked in, Connor went ahead and closed the door. He showed around, showing his bedroom and the guest bedroom, as well as the washroom that they were going to share
Mouse walked over to a towel that hung nearby, she took in a held it against her cheek, is smelled like Connor
"What are you doing, Mouse?" Connor looked at her in confusion
Mouse jolted back and looked around the room. She quickly came up with an excuse, her face was as red as a tomato
"Uh.. I was seeing if the towel was clean, yea, just a smell" She laughed nervously
"uhh, okay?" Connor said walking to the kitchen "This is the kitchen, nothing much here"
He openned the fridge and showed her a pack of chocolate milk, the same milk that Mouse had to drink as a meal replacement.
"You still have some?" Mouse asked taking one out
"I buy them whenever I run out, we're milk buddies, aren't we?" He smiled
Mouse looked away and began to drink her milk. Her ears were tainted red, they seemed to be burning
"Something wrong? you're all red" Connor asked randomly
"I-Im just a little warm that's all" She laughed awkwardly
"Oh alright" He replied
Connor walked over to the last door of the house, he openned it to show a large room covered in sound proof material. There were posters hung all over
A black desk sat at one end of the room, it was cluttered with wires and streaming gear.
"this is the streaming room, if you want we could set your stuff up here" Connor yawned
"Oh? The monkey is tired?" She mocked him
"Shut-" He paused
Connor stretched his arms upwards and walked over to the couch, plopping down on it.
"you know what? maybe I will take a nap. If you need anything, just call me" Connor said slowly drifting asleep
Mouse wandered around his house for a bit, seeing if there was anything interesting. After setting all her things down she went to check in on Connor
He was still fast asleep, his shirt had lifted in his sleep, revealing his abs. Mouse's face turned a light red and she walked passed him to his room.
"That idiot needs to watch what happens to his clothes" She thought
Mouse took one of Connors pillows and held it tight. It smelled of Connor, a nice, welcoming smell that made her feel comfortable
"this is what he smells like" she smiled
Mouse put the pillow back and stood in front of Connor. She looked at his forehead and leaned forwards.
"You're asleep so it's okay" She said with a smile
Mouse walked back to her own room. She had left a very light but visible mark on his forehead that resembled the shape of lips.
"I'll keep it a secret" Mouse giggled
