After getting back from what felt like the longest day of work you've had in a long time, you finally get back to your apartment and reach into your pocket with your wallet and feel around searching for your keys, you remember you took them out at the office. You frown and throw your bag back over your shoulder and rush back to the lobby, Accidentally you run into somebody.
"I'm sorry I should-" You're interrupted in the middle of your apology which you thought was rather rude.
"{Y/N}! Just the Investigator I'm looking for!" You turn to look at the person, as your eyes adjusted to the bright room, illuminated by the warm afternoon sun you see Juuzou standing in the light with his hand out holding your keys. He looked heavenly, his pale skin seemed to be producing the light and reflecting it at the same time, his snow white hair blowing round softly in the room.
"{YN}, are you ok? Your nose is bleeding." The pale man asks looking genuinely concerned weather it was because you might be hurt or because the smell of your blood would attract any ghouls in the area.
"Yeah I'm fine." You decide to stop staring, mentality kicking yourself. The next thing you realize is your feet are no longer on the floor, you look up to see Juuzou carrying you in wedding style way.
"I'll make sure you get back to your room safely" Juuzou says as he starts to walk from the hall you came from.
"No, I'm fine, you don't have to carry me." You turn many shades of red and struggle but after a few seconds you decide its no use and tell him your apartment number. "How did you know where I live Juuzou?" you ask.
"I followed you, I saw you forgot your keys and I decided it would be my duty as a friend and a investigator of the CCG to return them to you." He said. You were shocked to hear he thought of you as a friend, you only saw each other around lunch and passing in the hallways. You let a small smile form on your face knowing he couldn't keep a straight face longer then 2 seconds.
He puts you down at the door of your apartment and starts to walk off. "Juuzou wait!" you call after him "Would you like to stay for dinner?" You felt you at least had to do this for him after he saved you at least an hour by returning your keys. But who knows there could've been a ghoul just waiting for you outside.
He pivots on his heel and does a full 180 degree turn with one foot still out like he was walking. " Why of course I would thanks!" He walks past and takes the keys out of your hand and unlocks your apartment door
"I'll be right back, just let me change!" you call as you walk into your room and close the door behind you.
