{Sakamoto's POV}
Erin is a forgetful girl not only did she forget the vegetables, but the peas on the counter too. I walk up to her door and notice she is on the ground. Her black straight hair covering her face. Making my blue-ish black hair look shaggy.
I knock on her door frame. "What happened? ya need help?" She gets up and throws away some stuffing.
"It's ok, I wouldn't want to bother you from your own unpacking."
"Well, when is dinner ready?" I see her face turn slightly pale. She runs past me stumbling and tripping. As she ran I caught a whiff of her.
Vanilla, roses, no.. Something sweet. I followed her downstairs and stood behind her to see the damage. She started stumbling back into my arms. I blinked and looked down to see her eyes. I didn't know what to do so I let go of her.
I went to sit down on the living room couch, my heart was beating and my face felt hot. She served me a plate of (almost) burnt vegetables.
"I'm sorry if it tastes like plastic, I guess the temp was to high. I should have also put a timer.."
"It's ok..."
