Akame ga Kill! - Killer of the East

Kill the Worry!

Chelsea POV

The manta landed, and when I saw Cyrus and his blood stained shirt, I thought the worst. But as I was about to run to them, I see Cyrus jump off the manta, in perfect health.

Thoughts raced through my mind, Cyrus was hurt, right? He probably used his tears like he did last time. Doya had Lubbocks coat on, and Lubbock himself was covered half in blood.

Lubbock walked past me and Najenda without a word. Usually he'd give us a, "Yo!" or a "what's up?"... but he was silent. Cyrus looked at his friend with worried eyes. What had happened?

Cyrus sees me and smiles, giving me a little wave before heading into the base. He's my boyfriend, I think? We've never really talked after that whole fight deal with Akame.

I run after him, I need a clear answer now or I'll go crazy. I know he feels the same way... but Cyrus is the type of guy to ignore his private life and focus on his missions.

Cyrus is about to enter his room when I tap his shoulder. He jumps at my touch, turning around quickly.

"What's up?" He said quickly. Was it me, or was he nervous?

I put my hand in my bag and hand him another sucker, sour apple flavor. He smiles and pops it into his mouth. The suckers are like my way of saying, "I love you." it was pretty stupid, but it was less embarrassing.

"Thanks... Say, are you off for awhile?" He asks, a slight blush coming on his face. Now I see, all that confidence from before is gone, which makes me happy somehow, I don't him thinking he's in control of this relationship, were on equal terms.

"Yeah. Wanna talk?" I ask, hiding my face. We can't seem to talk to each other without blushing.

He nods and opens his door, and I head into it without thinking. Wait, I'm in his room! my heart does a 360, and my face is blushing like crazy! Cyrus sits down in a chair, near the window.

"Hey... I was wondering, why do you like me?" He asks, looking out the window with a serious face.

I stammer, I wasn't prepared for that question. "I honestly don't know... it was more of a first sight type of thing."

He grins. "Love at first sight... that's pretty cute."

That makes me blush, I twiddle my fingers. I don't know what to say, until I hear him shuffle in his chair. I look at him, he's blushing a bit.

"I like you because your secretly caring, your harsh on the others so you can make them try their hardest. And well..." he stops, because I happen to walk near him while he's saying this.

our faces are only about an inch apart, I can feel and smell his breath, it smells like cinnamon. His arms wrap around me, and pulls me into him. Our bodies touch, and we hug for a very long time.

"I love you." he whisper in my ear, making me shiver.

I can't hold back anymore, I lift my head from his shoulder and wrap my arms around his neck, pulling him into a kiss. It was forced by me at first, and he was surprised, but then he welcomed it, pushing into it.

I let out a moan, and he stops kissing. "Did I hurt you?" He said with worry in his eyes.

I answer by kissing him again. Suddenly, I don't mean to, but my tongue slides in, and he lets it. We kiss like this for what feels like an eternity. When we separate our mouths, saliva cords between our tongues, making us both blush.

We stare in each others eye for a long time, then when we're about to kiss again-

Knock knock!
