21: I need you

She laid on his chest sitting sideways in his lap " genos... "

Genos: hai? Sairisu.

Sairisu: your metal now feels so reliable... I don't want to leave. Somehow... It feels warm.

He pats her head and strokes her hair " I modified its settings so you can feel this warmth I'm making using my core. It's tiny... But hoping it's comfortable. " She sticks closer to his chest " very... "

Genos: I'm glad.

Sairisu: you told me everything... But... Something tells me not to process it. Not to accept it. I want to forgive sonic... I don't want to at the same time...

She looked up to him " what should I do? " He cupped her cheek " I can't help you solve that. I want to be selfish and say you have me... Remember me... But I can't. That's... Despicable. "

" genos... " she cupped both his cheeks and kisses on his lips... A long while lasted and a saliva thread pulled out as she left his mouth " Genos. You're too nice. Sonic could win you easily. He's a ninja. "

Genos: aishteru. And I will win you with my own ways. So you'll love me as who I am.

Sairisu: genos... *leans against chest*

She finally returned back to her home. She opened the door and realised a pair of familiar shoes. Shoes she knew. She walked in nevertheless. She took a deep breath " sonic? "

He flash stepped in front of her immediately " Sairisu...!! " he hugged her tight.

Sairisu: sonic...

Sonic: sairisu... Are you still mad at me?

Sairisu: let go of me.

He did and he looked at her guilty " I had my own reasons. I didn't want you to get hurt. Feel used. You were getting horrible nightmares and crying every night even if I hugged you to sleep. You were sleepless for a period of time."

Sairisu: I know...

Sonic: I thought if I told you, you would go crazy like... The others. I don't want that...

Sairisu: you should have told me!!!

Sonic: I don't want you go hurting yourself.

" you still should have told me!!! I always thought rinku was my best friend!! " her tears started to flow "Another me!!! I could actually trust it!! " she hit him in the chest with no strength as she was crying with too much of her strength.

He grabbed her arms gently and hugged her " aishteru da. I don't want you to die. " She cried even harder " you could have stopped me from killing myself!!! Aren't you strong?!!! "

His eyes widened " Sairisu... " he pushed her head deeper into his chest " I... I'm not confident. With you, I'm not confident. I can't fail if it's you. You're too precious. "

Her crying slowly soften and she looked to his eyes " I... Hate you... Making me... Cry... " her legs weaken and he catches her " too tired from crying too much? " he carries her bridal style and puts her on the bed " sleep. "

She makes whining sounds " mmmm... Sonic. " He goes into bed with her and hugs her " alright. "
