Love magic trapped in stone

Chapter 19

Even thru the night the air was still slightly chilly that it then woke Michelle up to sneeze. Looking around everyone was still sleeping, some snoaring loudly. But she knew the day will come soon, getting up and dusting her self off she went to wake up Kohaku and chrome and some villagers. She didn't want to wake up Suika, children still need to rest more than adults. Ruth was back to his size before anymore villagers could be fully awake he didn't want to risk them seeing how big he got. Leaving the others to handle things from there and Ruth to keep watch over a still sleepy Gen, Michelle would claim up to see Senku before she get breakfast ready again.

As she came close she could see he was still asleep soundly making her feel happy but notice he had her cape on him. -He must have gotten cold thru the night and took it. It's fine I don't mind- she was more than happy seeing him use what was hers.

The cape was from a real wolf's hide but she enchanted it to keep the body warm if the temperature got even more cold or it would cool down if it gotten hotter outside. Granted it wasn't water proof but it still help with some elements from the environment. Getting closer to him watching his sleepy face.

It felt as if time stopped all together, he looked so calm and more handsome when he slept, his lips lightly parted hearing his steady breathing. His chest rising and falling with each inhale of air that comes to him. She didn't want to wake him up but she knew she had too. Senku is the kind of guy that likes to get up to work at least and start the day with new inventions. Coming a bit closer she wonder how would she wake him? She didn't want to use her loud voice, oh no she wanted to wake him in a soothing way to relax him too but how? As she was pondering with her eyes closed, arms crossed and her left finger tapping her arm she didn't notice Senku was soon waking up him self, while his eyes open a bit to soon take focus he saw in a sleepy haze a bit that Michelle was in deep thought to her self.

He didn't expect to see her close like this again, unlike last time he didn't had her lap like a pillow but he couldn't deny the fact he did like waking up and the first thing he saw was her. He only looked at her for a moment seeing she was really deep in thought that it was kind of cute but he wouldn't admit it to her. "Michelle what you thinking about?" "I'm thinking on how to wake you up soothingly and not raising my voice... wait." Looking down seeing Senku only look at her with a plain face but then smirk a little as he hum at her "Oh and how would you have done that I wonder?" It took everything she had not to scream and jump away seeing she didn't expect him to wake up least not like this! Still he didn't mind and got up stretching his arms and yawn a little.

When he looked at her face however he saw how red she was and also see the struggle of her holding back her emotions, he would laugh but now wouldn't be the time. "Is everyone else awake or just me?" this took Michelle out her state but would nod lightly "Yes everyone is awake... I just wanted to wake you up but guess that's over... Senku...I get the feeling Gen would want to talk to you. If it happens... please try not to fight I know it's unavoidable but still." "I can't make that as a promise but I understand still... if he goes back to Tsukasa... will you follow him and stay?"

he looked serious seeing in away it was selfish but he wanted to confirm her intentions seeing he knew him longer and he's important to her and her family it could be a possibility, but what took him by surprised was her hugging him and snuggle closer. Sure she was like this but to do this when it was a serious conversation was another thing. "Senku. He may be that yes but I promised your father I'd stay by your side... I'm not leaving you. besides Tsukasa still on my bad list I won't even willingly help him I'll just be on my own, sure Gen and our friends can be near me but... anyone else won't be near me... and if your no longer with me. I'll just go back home there be no point for me staying here."

Hearing this took him by surprised but also confused about going home. If she meant where he slept with her then it means leaving the rest the villagers and never returning back? But he had a suspicious feeling it meant something even more deep then that. Before he could ask Kohaku called out for Michelle as she let go of Senku and walked to the entrance as she looked down at her and smile. "I'll be there in a moment! Don't worry." As she called out and then went to see Senku she knew her words had him thinking but right now she couldn't explain more. "I'll make breakfast while all of you work." Before he could say anything else she left out in a leap to land outside and went into the forest to grab ingredients for breakfast.
