They walked closer and slowly trying to find a place.

-You feeling better?

-Yeah...

-I didn't expect you to be so afraid of that thing

-Told ya, I'm a coward

-Come on, that was pretty brave

A brief snort from her followed by a:

- Thank you

A smirk from him

-You're welcome

-How did you manage to get a tea with all these flavors though, and where are we going anyways?

The place was pretty large, with a bunch of attractions, booths and noise; so it seemed difficult to find a nice place to rest.

-So impatient

-Oh, so you actually know where we going?

-Of course I do- he sighted looking sideways- I know everything

-Fantastic..

-There!

He pointed at a bench, right bellow a tree, in between two closed food stalls, while placing his hand -again- over her back, as he guided her, towards it.

The pressure of his warm touch against it, felt so nice, that she began to feel oddly strange.

They sat on it.

-See? - he celebrates - The best place

She briefly laughed

-What? Isn't it good?

Then a smell...

And both frowned as he sentenced

-Yup! we're leaving

He stood up and she laughed louder

-Come on, don't laugh at me - offering his hand - You are supposed to help me or something

She stood up with a smile on her face, and they walked a little longer before finding a better place to sit down; A sidewalk, with a couple trees around it, barely any sound surround it, and a no pee-pee smell.

It was perfect.

-Aaagh- he let it out with relief

And she hands him the empty cup

-What am I supposed to do with that?

-Throw it away?

-Seriously?

-Sorry?

He shook his head smiling, and she looked a little bit sad

-It was pretty good though. Thank you.

-Again, your welcome

-Again, how you managed to get such of thing in the middle of...this?

-I just bought a bunch of teas and mixed them up

Her jaw dropped

-What? Why? Why you didn't just get one?

-Because that's the perfect mix for dizziness

She smiled when she heard it

-Really?

-Yeah

-Well thank you -she said while caressing at the now, empty cup - I didn't bring any money with me, but I'll...

-Agh! stop it

-What?!

-You talk so much it makes me dizzy

-Well fuck you! that ain't very nice

She turned her head away and he laughed loud

-Oh well, at least someone's having fun

-Oh! aren't ya? - he said mocking her tone - I thought you'd be happy cuz we're making two of your goals come true by once

She closed her eyes, shooking her head

-What?

-You know what I mean

-Ah! - she opened her eyes and mouth as she just had realized something very important

-You were going to die - she pointed at him- to give your organs to somebody you love

She was deadly serious, staring into his eyes

-I'm right, am I?

He shook his head as cracked out of laughing. It was a small sound, that briefly escalated into something pretty loud.

-YOU! HAHAHAHA - he passed his hand over his face - Lord, you, really, are kinda something aren't ya? Hahaha..

He looked at her with a wide smile as she couldn't figure out if he was just hysterically avoiding her question, or he was actually, that amused.

-Huh? - she mumbled

And even when the feelings were a mix of nervousness, excitement and anxiety, one thing was for sure; She never had felt as safe as when he gave her that warm cup of tea, as when he placed his warm hand on her back, but mostly; as when he looked at her like that.
