Area 51 (Nanbaka: Jyugo x reader)

Chapter 10 Cramming in Love

[|||]

(Y/n)'s POV

Being sandwiched in the luggage storage is rough. It's probably going to take at the minimum at least 24 hours for us to reach Area 51. And sleeping so close to Jyugo is making me melt. He looks so peaceful in his slumber; so innocent. I never looked at him so closely before. His hair was covering his tranquil face, so I reached out my hand to move to it out the way, but he grabbed my wrist. Why does he always grab my wrist or my hand... but it's not that I mind. His heterochromatic eyes shot open, I was taken aback, and I accidentally fell on top on him.

"J-j-jyugo, I-i'm so sorry!" I proclaimed in a nervous tone.

"I-it's o-okay (y/n)," he replied as he slowly sat me up.

Ok now I'm not lying on him, but now I'm sitting in his lap! He doesn't seem to be embarrassed at this. I guess this is a different side of him I haven't seen. He started stroking my hair, which seems really out of character for him. I continued to sit in his lap and let him play in my hair as if he were solving a puzzle.

"Uh, not that I'm not enjoying this, but is there a reason why you're stroking my hair?" I asked.

"I-isn't this what two people in love do?"

"You're in love with me?!" I exclaimed.

"Isn't in obvious? Y-yeah, I guess I was wrong to say that I couldn't except or return your feelings." He said as his face turned pink.

I started crying.

"W-what? W-why are you crying? Did I do something wrong?" Jyugo panicked.

I wiped my eyes," No idiot, I was crying tears of joy."

"Oh..."

"So I guess this means we're dating!" I cheered.

"Y-yeah."

We've been trapped in here for about 10 hours now including the time we were sleeping. The ship started sailing 2 hours ago (pun intended), so we have about another 22 hours before we arrive at our destination. So far I'm hungry, cramped, and I need to pee.

"Jyu-jyu bear, I'm hungryyy," I whined.

"Where did Jyu-jyu bear come from?!" He inquired.

"It's a nickname that I'll be calling you from now on! Haha, have you ever heard of the candies called juju bears, you're sweet like them~"

"W-whatever, anyway I'm pretty sure the boat will take a stop to refuel, so we can sneak out then and get something to eat."

"Yeah, but how are we going to go out without being spotted. I'm pretty sure everyone has been alerted that we escaped."

Jyugo started unlocking the suitcases that surrounded us looking for things that would conceal our identities. He found some makeup, trench coats, and sunglasses to make us look like tourists.

"How much money do you have with you?" He asked me.

"2300 yen, what about you?"

"I can't count, I've been in jail most of my life so I can't count that high," he confessed.

"You're serious? Well I guess that makes sense. Give me your money, and let me count it for you...ok, you have 3400 yen so together we have 5700 yen, that should hold us off for awhile." I told him.

"So how do I apply this liquid stuff?" He asked pointing to a bottle of foundation.

"Give it here, I'll do it, bring your face closer."
