The door creaked open and then was silently shut. Under the shadows cast inside the hotel bedroom, Kitt stood silently in front of the entrance with an etched smile, quite giddy as he had ever been. It was 23:40, and he had quickly checked with his lowly-illuminated phone before he turned it off and placed it back into his pockets. He was already at 4% from all the texting and looking up directions he had done with Aiga prior hours ago. Now, the blader had returned home to his shared hotel room with Honey, the quarters serene and quiet as they had always been in the presence of the sleeping girl.

He silently huffed out of amazement, the thrill of Beyblading and, well, linked intimacy still pulsed vigorously in his veins even after it ended long ago. While the moments of the sweetest exhilaration could have kept him in a never-ending loop inside his head for months at most, it couldn't have been enough to get rid of his doting thoughts of ever disrupting his dear friend's deep slumber. Or more accurately, Kitt should have thought of light slumber, knowing how the other struggled to turn off the lights in her head even if the world was knocked out.

So he walked lightly like a ghost on the wooden boards, carefully calculating his steps through the small corridor to get to the beds, avoiding any boisterous creaks until he froze at the other entrance of the bedroom.

The sight of a rather wide awake girl than one sleeping had him jolting at her unheard presence.

"What the hell!" Kitt screeched out loud, stumbling back away from her ghostly presence, only to hear a small string of giggles echo voluminously inside the room.

"You got scared." she hummed softly in the darkness, her face obscured by the dark overlay cast in the bedrooms. "Don't be scared~ Turn on the lights; I won't attack you while you're switching them."

He scoffed at the other's rather radiant voice, but obliged her request, instantly flickering the yellow lights on above. Now, he could really see Honey in her full form, except that she wasn't donned in her pyjamas but in a pink halter dress with her iconic bow on her waistband. Even more impressive was that she adorned herself with some silver jewellery on her hair, ears, and wrists to contrast her worn dark tights.

Kitt raised a brow at such unusual attire, "Woah, who knew you could dress so fancy! Did'ja you go out somewhere?"

Honey tilted her to the side, tapping on her chin quite languidly, "Maybe, maybe not~" she said.

"Oiya, why are you playing games with me now?" he pouted, "You can't just keep me waiting for the answer. Just spill the beans already!"

"Not even one little guess?" Honey sulked, dramatically dropping her shoulders. He should've really known she was going to pull up her 'puppy eyes' trick somewhere.

Kitt huffed, "Well, I can definitely say wearing a halter dress isn't your style. You're the 'cutesy' type, so now will you spill it?"

"Haha, you know me well." she chuckled, giving him a short round of applause as he came around to sit on his clean bed, parallel to Honey's position on the other bed.

"Well, I won't hide it; this was part of the dress code for a little hangout I was invited to, and guess what? I was able to reunite with a new friend of mine."

"Friend?" Kitt furrowed his brows.

"Have you forgotten?" she tutted, "It's Yúzé. Remember?"

"Yúzé? Yúzé... Oh, that boy!" he snapped his fingers and said, "The one you've really, really gotten close to outta nowhere and spoken to him and about him to me about 250% of the time?"

"Out of nowhere- You know, Kitt, it might be better to say it out loud than vaguely speak of it." she crossed her arms.

He shrugged, "If you say so, then, are you two dating yet?"

She instantly choked on her breath, causing her to gasp for air, while an indescribable mix of shock, embarrassment, and confusion played out across her red face. Huh, guess she wasn't expecting him to be too brash or that she didn't understand him. 'How amusing.', the Air Knight blader thought.

"Ah, not so fast!" she squealed out rather softly in comparison to her strongly flushed cheeks, "It's only been our seventh hangout!" Honey coughed into her fist lightly, bolting her eyes elsewhere, "But, uh, I am interested in him a little, so maybe...?"

Kitt smirked, whistling away as he dropped his head onto his pillow, "Sasha better be paying me €15 when we're back in Spain next year~" he sang.
