回 Chapter Four: Help 回

Quick Author's note: 『I recommend listening to the song I have attached to every chapter: as it usually goes along with the mood of the chapter.』

"Help?" You echo, your drowsy tone now gone, quickly replaced by a darker one. The investigator nods, gulping for a moment. "I'm hungry..." He mumbles softly, almost inaudibly, but you were sure you heard him right. You paused, your prediction was correct. Although you had first met only a few weeks ago, you could still remember how taken back by the unique scent he had you were. You chuckle nervously, hoping for it not to be true. "You can't just go to the CCG's cafeteria?" You chuckle nervously, scratching behind your ear in worry. Hopefully this man wasn't too good at reading other's emotions. "I thought they had really good food there, jeez Haise! You seem a little out of it but I didn't expect you to be that out of it!" You continue, trying to breath out of your mouth rather than from your nostrils. It was already difficult enough that you (probably) had feelings for him, but his mouth-watering scent was enough to drive you up a wall.

"I don't know how to explain this..." He mumbles softly, adjusting his glasses that you had never seen him wear before. His hands were neatly folded in his lap, and you could hear a small cracking sound as his arm shifted for a split second. It sounded like he cracked his knuckles, but that's such a pointless observation. You eagerly listened, awaiting the continuation of his sentence. "Haise?" You said quietly, licking your lips, pretending just to re-moisturize them, although that's a lie. "I-nevermind." He shakes his head quickly, his messy white and black hair flopping around. He stands up, and you notice the large black bags under his eyes, contrasting his pale skin. The investigator stood up and politely bowed. "Thank you for your time." Sasaki mumbles under his breath softly, looking away from your gaze and beginning to walk towards the door.

"Haise!" You call out his first name like he always told you to and grabbed his hand before he could turn the knob to leave. "Why are you so out of it? You can tell me, right?" His eyes meet yours for a moment and quickly turn away. "It's nothing, [surname]-san." He smiles weakly, his gaze looking sad and meloncholy. "It doesn't fit him." You think, looking at him with a concerned expression.

"Can you come over tomorrow at 7:00 pm? I want to introduce you to my squad."
