Jax standing in the kitchen with a smug ass smile on his face, holding a bottle of soda. Standing across the bedroom, waiting for Pomni to fulfill her end of the bet. It was a bet that Pomni had lost, and now she had to wear a rabbit suit for the entire day.

"Come on Pomni! You lost the bet! You have to wear it for the entire day! Remember?" Jax asked in a condescending tone.

"Yes! Yes... I do!" Pomni yelled from the other side of the door.

The bedroom door opened up, revealing Pomni wearing a Jax's Circus Suit, leaving Pomni highly embarrassed.

"Wow, if someone said that you're 17 years old, I'd honestly believe them," Jax said nonchalantly.

"This is so embarrassing!" Pomni uttered.

"WHAT!? Come on, you're just an angel!"

"Ugh, do I really have to have a tail?" Pomni asked while grabbing the rabbit tail on the suit.

"Of course, it is, bunny tails are highly important. Plus, it makes you cuter."

"D-don't call me cute, I'm a grown woman!" Pomni demanded.

"Are you sure? Your head is barely cutting up to my stomach, you're not very... You know, sexy."

"W-WHAT!? I'M NOT SEXY!?"

"Not at all, you're a baby. But ay, most men prefer cute women, a man such as myself doesn't like anybody," Jax said.

"Y-you're missing the point! How am I not sexy!?" Pomni demanded to know.

Jax chuckled. "Ya know it's weird to hear you being so assertive, especially when you're 5ft tall, timid, and next-level harmless!"

"W-what!? I'm not harmless! I can be threatening!" Pomni said.

"So... Like I said, a 5ft tall, timid woman like you is harmless, and dressed up like that is absolutely adorable! Don't play me," Jax leaned down to Pomni's face, making her back up slightly.

"It's cute, you think you could even mimic the fraction! Of my... Lovely personality!" he said jokingly.

"Y-you're wrong! I can be more than shy & timid! I can be so much more! Even more than you can handle!" Pomni said with boldness.

"Really? You? Bold? That's a laugh, I would love to see that, hey reader! Do you want to see an assertive kid? Well, tough luck! You can't get something that's just an illusion! Like anime waifus, heh sorry weebs!" Jax teased.

"Don't act like I'm a little girl! I'm a grown woman!" Pomni stated.

"Ahh, yes! You're a timid grown woman!" Jax chuckled playfully.

Pomni grew a vein in her head as he continued to chuckle. "C-come... C-come here!"

"Huh? What was that?" Jax asked jokingly.

"I... I said... 'Come... Here'," she struggled to say with a bright red face.

"Huh? 'Come here'? With that tone? Heh, you would have better luck calling a-" 

Now! Pomni said in a demanding tone, causing Jax to grow a surprised look on his face. "I-I'm telling you, c...come here... Now!" she said, slightly timid. Jax exhaled, realizing that Pomni still had a long road ahead of her. He placed his hand on Pomni's head and chuckled, "Oh yeah... So what? As long as you act like a child, imma treat you like one, but of course, I'll still have my moments of teasing you."

Pomni sighed, looking defeated. "Ugh, I can't stand you sometimes," she announced. "But Jax, can I ask you something?" she asked.

Jax, with a hint of sarcasm in his voice, replied, "I don't know... Can you?" He laughed softly, making Pomni facepalm.

"But all jokes aside, sure, what's the question?" Jax asked.

"It's Ragatha," Pomni said. Jax's eyes quickly widened at the mention of Ragatha.

"She said something about you quitting your job at the circus a while back, is there a reason why?" Pomni asked.

Jax took a moment to gather his thoughts before responding. "Yes, there is a reason why I quit my job at the circus," he said. "It was a decision I had to make for my well-being."

Jax took a moment to gather his thoughts before responding. "Yes, there is a reason why I quit my job at the circus," he said. "It was a decision I had to make for my well-being."

Jax had always been known for his quick wit and confidence, never hesitating to speak his mind. But behind his charismatic exterior, there were depths of pain and sorrow that he kept hidden from those around him. The circus had been his refuge for many years, a place where he could escape from the harsh realities of his past. But as time went on, he realized that he could no longer ignore the darkness that lurked within him.

Leaving the circus was a difficult choice, but Jax knew it was the right one. He needed to focus on his own mental and emotional well-being, rather than continuing to distract himself with the excitement and chaos of the circus. It was a brave decision, one that required him to face his fears and confront the demons that haunted him.






"Am I funny now? Did I make you laugh with joy?"






I know, you're gonna tease me about this later... But I'm serious, I don't want you to think that you have to deal with it on your own, I'm here for you! I know I still need time to get to know you much more... But I rather get to know you through good and bad times.

Pomni turned let of Jax's waist and stood in front of him. "Lower yourself," she demanded softly and gently. Jax, being serious, lowered himself down to Pomni's height.

"Pomni, I'm-"

Pomni leaned closer to Jax, using the tips of her toes to prop her up. Jax's eyes widened with a look of shock, feeling Pomni's small and soft body pressed up against him, hugging him tightly.

"Please, let me be involved with you much more. I... Care deeply about you..."

Jax's eyes began to twitch as he never felt such a generous hug in such a long time. "I... I gotcha" Jax said awkwardly.
