Bullets and Pastries | Granger x Guinevere MLBB ☆COMPLETED☆

Bullet #15: Shampoo

《A/N: SURPRISE! DOUBLE UPDATE!》

Guinevere giddily swayed the paper bag in her hand as she walked. The bag had the Land of Dawn Fun Park trademarked symbol on it and it holds the stuff they bought from the souvenir shop. It was nice that she can finally move her arms and shoulders.

"We safely arrived at our destination, my lady."

Guinevere giggled at his announcement. He totally sounded like a robot.

"Ah. Please do read the instructions written by Doctor Rafaela well and apply the cream daily. It's all here."

Granger put the smaller paper bag, where the cream and the doctor's instruction was packed, in the Fun Park paper bag.

"Again, thank you so much for today, Grangey." Guinevere bowed her to convey her heartfelt gratitude.

"Always a pleasure, Guini. But I'm really sorry about earlier. If only I found you sooner, you wouldn't have been hurt...I guess I'm not a good friend..."

Guinevere could tell Granger was frowning despite of the mask and the low light. He was wearing it again when they left the photo booth. An air of melancholy emitted from him.

"Hey, don't say that! You're an amazing friend, Granger! The best friend one could ever ask for!" Guinevere looked up to him. Jade green orbs looking at ruby ones.

She raised her heels so she could pat Granger's head but failed miserably because Granger backed away, as if teasing her. She was currently wearing flats so she was naturally shorter. Oh how she wished she was wearing heels this moment!

"Goodness, you're so tall! That's unfair."

Guinevere pouted and stomped her foot which made Granger laugh and clutched his stomach. The vein on Guinevere's temple twitched.

Granger then arched his back forward, which caught Guinevere off guard It startled the green eyed girl and froze on her spot.

"Now you can pat me, Guini." Granger's eyes crinkled in delight.

'He's so close...'

Despite the alarm bells in her brain, Guinevere's free hand automatically raised up and did the deed. She touched his hair like it was a sacred relic.

'Oh my!'

"It's so soft! What shampoo do you use?" Guinevere's mind and body seems to have no coordination. She gasped at the words that left her mouth.

'Guinevere Baroque! Why are you so creepy! Hold your tongue and stop asking weird questions!'

Guinevere pulled back her hand in reflex but Granger beat her to it. He firmly placed his hand on top of hers so she could continue patting his head.

His pensive eyes looked so intense for a few seconds. It gave Guinevere goosebumps. A second later, his red eyes returned to normal and crinkled in delight.

"Pat me some more, Guini. It makes me feel like I'm a good friend."

Guinevere could feel the sincerity in Granger's words. Guinevere knew he was smiling underneath his mask when she patted his head in her own will.

"And to answer your question, I use Dove Men Plus Ca--"

The gates suddenly opened and an angry voice bellowed.

"GUINEVERE BAROQUE! C-CRINGER!? WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH MY DEAR LITTLE SISTER?!!"

Guinevere was startled by the sudden intrusion and Granger immediately straightened up. But he still didn't let go of her hand. And what's worse, she didn't get to hear the full name of the shampoo brand! Oh her priorities!
