Aqua: What's wrong with (Y/n)?

Megumin looked at you munching on something. In between bites, she spoke.

Megumin: He looks like a cat.

You sat at the table with a large grin on your face. Some would say you looked rather smug, but you were just a happy boy. After the events of fighting the headless knight, you had managed to heal despite Aqua constantly questioning the dark purple spots on your neck. However, what worried you the most was the fact that due to Aqua your group now had to pay for flooding damages to the town. With winter setting in and the snow beginning to fall, your group had to find any jobs they could in the freezing cold. 

Kazuma: What has you so happy (Y/n)?

(Y/n): I found a job!

Kazuma: Eh?! And you didn't tell us sooner?!

Kazuma gripped your shoulders and began to shake you back and forth. 

(Y/n): It's. A. Solo. Job!

You spoke as Kazuma vigorously shook you before you he realized your shoulders.

Megumin: What's the job? *munches*

(Y/n): This pretty girl said she would pay me to move somethings into her new house.

Aqua: Ehhhhh?! When did I give you permission to do things for other girls?!

You tried to respond, but you heard a clock chime off in the distance.

(Y/n): Oh no I'm going to be late!

You jumped up and grabbed a nearby cloak before rushing out the door with Aqua yelling after you the entire time. You pulled the hood over your head as the snow softly fell from the sky. You watched your warm breath blow up into the cold air as you let a smile grace your lips. It wasn't every day a pretty girl paid you to do something. The only pretty girls you knew of were usually flat out broke. I guess you could call them useless, but that would be a tad bit mean. You turned a corner and nearly bumped into a cart. Looking up, the house you were supposed to move things into just so happened to be right in front of you.

???: There you are~

An angelic voice filled your ears as you turned. The girl that had requested your aid was here! Her light blonde hair framing her soft features. Her emerald greens eyes met your (E/c) ones and you blushed. She wore a matching emerald dress with her sleeves being disconnected from her shoulders.

(Y/n): H-Hey... Aren't you cold m'lady?

She giggled quietly.

???: I'm not going to leave you alone in moving into my new home.

(Y/n): T-That's very kind of you, but I i-insist you rest! I'll take care of it for you!

???: Aww thank you for caring about me~ I'll make you some hot cocoa for when you finish.

She smiled at you and walked inside. you let out a shaky breathe you didn't know you had been holding in as your cheeks burned red and a smile broke out onto your face. You looked up at the cart to see she hadn't really brought much with her. Just a chest, a dresser, and a couch. a man walked out wiping his hands with a cloth.

???: You the new guy, huh?

(Y/n): O-Oh yes! I'm here to help the lady of this house.

He raised his eyebrows at you before he let out a snicker.

???: Alright. I already set up the majority of the stuff so you tough guy only has to move this stuff. I'll even help you get it out of the cart so I can take my payment out for a fine night of drinks.
