BLACK6IX ZODIAC 2

My very first anime - Yuta

A/N: This week, you know the answer.

The week begins on Monday, April 15, with Mercury in Aries making a semisextile to Jupiter in Taurus. Sagittarius, you might need to enlist some help for the long list of chores that you have to do today. Perhaps you are preparing for a big event or getting your house ready to be sold, but you shouldn't do this alone. It's time to activate the phone tree.

On Thursday, April 18, Mercury conjoins Chiron in Aries. Someone close to you needs some help. This might be a family member or a friend you've known for many years. They need to make big decision that involves not just them but also their family. They need some of your sage wisdom now.

As soon as he walked into the apartment, Yuta's brows furrowed. The sounds were familiar, but unexpected, and as he walked through into the living room, his guesses were only confirmed by what he saw playing on the TV, with her attention captured too.

"What's going on?" He instantly asked, making her jump by the sudden sound of his voice. "Do you want me to pass you the remote or something?"

Her head shook back at him, moving her legs so that he could take a seat beside her. "No, I put this on, take a seat, there's another episode coming on in a minute."

"Am I dreaming right now?" He chuckled, nervously taking a seat beside her. "Have I missed something or are you really sitting here and willingly watching anime right now?"

Her hand reached across to push gently against his arm, "don't sound so surprised, I've listened to enough episodes in the background when you've been watching them before."

"But I just never realised that you actually paid any attention to them," he admitted, scratching the top of his head, "I never had anime down as something that you would enjoy."

To some extent, Yuta was right, anime was far from something that she would enjoy, but she knew it was what he enjoyed. Seeing how happy it made him to watch it always left her feeling as if she was missing out on being able to enjoy it with him.

"It's something you enjoy, and so I want to try and enjoy it too."

She'd lost count of the number of anime episodes she'd watched late at night cuddled up besides Yuta, or in the background whilst the two of them prepared dinner. Although she was yet to fully understand what was happening, she couldn't hide her enjoyment at what she was watching.

His smile slowly grew, allowing himself to relax as he realised what was happening wasn't a joke. "If anime isn't your thing, you don't have to watch it just for me. There's a reason why I don't watch those reality shows that you do."

"I can at least give it a try," she responded, "it seems to make you happy, so why not me?"

His hand relaxed over her legs as the credits rolled on the episode that had just finished. "Answer me this then, did you have much of an idea of what happened in the episode you just watched?"

"A little, but I'm willing to learn, that's what's important, right?"

Yuta's head instantly nodded back at her, impressed that she was so open to learning about something he adored. By now he'd probably watched almost every anime episode out there, but he was more than willing to watch them again with her.

As the next episode of the series played, she made sure to play a little more attention in order to impress Yuta. Whilst she had a basic understanding of who all of the characters were, she wanted to immerse herself more in the storylines and understand the appeal to anime.

Despite it being something that she'd ignored for much of her life, she couldn't ignore how important it was for Yuta. Even if she wasn't going to become anime's biggest fan overnight, having it as something she shared in common was hugely important for her.

For the most part of the following episode, she was able to track what was going on. There were little moments of confusion, but she was learning, which Yuta admired in her too.

As the credits played once again, his eyes flickered across to you and the soft smile that was on your face. "You're really serious about getting into anime, aren't you?" He asked, as her head nodded back at him. "If you've got questions about any of this then you can just ask me."

Her hand once again reached forwards and jabbed his hips, "I know if I ask you any questions then you'll tease me, so I want to do this for myself. Attack on Titan has been recommended to me a lot, so maybe I'll try that next."

"We could watch it together, I love that one," he cheered.

Herr eyebrows raised, silently reminding Yuta of what she'd just said. "I want to watch it and then I can impress you with all of the things that I've learnt. I want to pay attention and not have you talk over it like you usually do."

As disappointed as he was not to be able to watch with her, Yuta understood. This was her thing, and she wanted to learn about the things he loved at her own pace without him getting in the way of it.

"I'm excited to sit down and watch anime with you," he whispered, "but only when you're ready. There's a new programme I've been considering starting, maybe I could save it to watch with you when you want to."

"That would be nice," she responded, "but are you really sure you can wait that long? I know how impatient you are?"

Too many times she'd had to rush home because a new episode was being released or a trailer being posted online. She could only admire Yuta's enthusiasm for it all, he was definitely dedicated to it, which you hoped to try and be too.

"I'll wait, but only because it's to watch with you."

"Are you sure? That means no watching clips on YouTube or anything like you usually do."

Reluctantly his head nodded back at her, although it would be hard for him to do, he was determined to watch it with her. His mind was already thinking about the late evenings cuddled up together on the sofa whilst she watched an episode together.

Similarly, Yuta couldn't quite express how grateful he was to her for starting to invest in the things that made him happy. Whilst he knew anime wasn't exactly her cup of tea, you were willing to give it a try, just for him.

She watched on as he leant in towards you, "maybe I'll start trying to get into a few of those reality shows her like seeing as she's tried anime."

Her eyes widened with a very quick shake of her head, "I've not started watching anime to get you to start watching my programmes," she frantically explained to him, "I know those programmes would completely bore you, and that's alright. Please, don't start watching them just because of this Yuta."

"I want to," he assured you, pressing a kiss against her cheek, "and at least when we go out with your mates then I might start to have a clue about what you're all talking about. It means a lot to me that you're willing to give anime a try, and so the only way I can really show my gratitude is to do the same for you and the things that you enjoy."

Her head nodded back at him, knowing there was never a chance of arguing with Yuta. "There's a new series I've been wanting to watch anyway, maybe we could watch an episode of anime, and then an episode of mine."

"That's a great idea," Yuta cheered, pulling against her tighter, "plus it means that I have more time to spend with you, so there's no possible way that I could find any flaw in this plan, it sounds like perfection."

"You might not be saying that a few episodes into my programme," she joked.

"And you might say that after watching some anime too."

"Touché Yuta. Touché."
