-Kara-
"Mmh, soo good…." Cana moans as she nibbles on a fry dipped in her smoothie
I took her out.
After summer break Midnight kept mentioning how Mira and Kachan have been going out.
Even Erza has been seeing Todoroki.
So she suggested I take Cana out
She was wearing a white spaghetti string dress.
It was skin tight so her small 20 inch waist made her tits perk more than they already do
"Yummy, taste it!" She nearly crawls on top of the table,arching her back as she waves the fry in my face
She got a double bacon cheeseburger and a smoothie at the most expensive steakhouse in Japan
"Would you like anything else, Mr. Um… Kara?"
"Can we get some more onion rings?!" Cana sits back into her seat
"S-sure thing."
"I'll have another steak."
"Of course." She hurries off
"I could've made you steak, you know." Cana grumbles
"I told you, we're doing this for the media."
"Yeah-yeah." She giggles
"Yeah, so how about you buy something more expensive?"
"But I'm craving a cheeseburger" she scoops her burger up as I cut into what was left of my steak
"Mm-Nom." Her cheeks inflate with every bite she takes. "Sho quiet… what all is going on inside your head?" She gulps
…
"Why are you always asking?"
"Cause I want to know, silly." She giggles
"Well, nothing. I like eating in silence, being in silence."
"Hmh" She smiles. "what's your favorite animal
"What? Why?"
She pauses, her mouth inches from her burger
"Because…" she shrugs "I want to know"
…
"I like chicken, or pork."
"Really?" She tilts her head "my favorite animals are cats." she snaps "although dogs are a close second."
"Dog meat is too gamey, often metallic, though it does have a taste like beef or mutton."
"Wh-what? Not to eat I don't eat puppies!" she frowns
"Then what are you asking?"
"What animal do you like!? Not eat… I know," she snaps "What animal do you like to pet?"
"You mean what animal do I like to keep on a leash? In a cage?"
"Well…" she blushes
I enjoy seeing a human that way. Does that mean I like them?
"Odin often takes the form of a dog. I suppose that's my answer." though hardly so, I couldn't care less to see one die
"Dogs, huh? That's awesome." she giggles
After they brought us our second tray of food I decided it was time to go.
I drove her around in my Pigani to give the media something to talk about for a while
"Hmm… this one, look! The Titanic! I used to watch it all the time as a kid, it's super sad!"
It's starting in five minutes
"Fine."
I buy the entirety of the top row.
After she buys two buckets of popcorn and another smoothie we head inside just as the film began.
She sat on the edge of her seat
Half way through she tucks my arm into her chest after they began getting intimate on screen
…
"What?" I lower my gaze
She smiles.
What does she want?
Why is she always looking at me?
What does she see?
She crawls onto her seat and turns to face me, sitting on her ankles.
…
"What do you want from me?"
…
"Nothing." She shakes her head, "I just want to look at you." She leans in
I turned away before she'd land a kiss…
…
She tilts her head
"Is that so much to ask?"
"What?"
"Relishing what we have…"
…
"Yes…" I cross my arms
"Why?"
…
Because…
Whether or not it's real…
It's but a spec to the longevity of my life.
…
"I'm not asking you to change. Just… make some room for us…"
She rests her head on my chest and pulls my arm around her neck.
After the movie we head back to our dorm. Momo was watching over the girls with Erza so we had some time for ourselves
"And then this one, look!" She raises her wand
she holds her hand out as it floats in front of her
It spins faster and faster before snapping into a wooden staff
She tucks her knees in, bites her tongue, and squeezes her eyes shut
"Hmmm. Star…. Light! Hyahhh!" She raises her staff, casting a spell that… well…
A little star twinkles above her head, lighting the living room
"It's…"
"Neat, huh?" She crosses her arms
"I was going to say useless."
"What?! No way! It's totally useful!"
She pops a few more spells, most of which were simple party tricks.
"Lia loves this one." She cups her hands and creates bubbles "haha, yay!" She tosses them into the air
"You can do a lot more than that, you know…"
"Really? Like how?"
"With magic you can change your appearance, read people's minds and even control time to an extent."
"Wow, really?"
"Yeah… unlike chakra or ki you can form magic into anything."
I raise a finger, figuring various objects and animals
"That's so cute!" She sits down between my knees to meet the puppy running circles around her
"It's magic." The puppy disperses into butterflies before turning back into magic energy.
"Wow, you're so amazing."
"They aren't real animals. Creating a real animal with a soul requires more power."
"That doesn't change how amazing you are!" She stands up
"You should give yourself more credit!" She smiles widely, placing her hands on her hips
"Oh I'm awesome, no doubt." I smirk "but you should be able to do these things by now at the very least
"Really? Well… why don't you teach me then?"
"Teach you?"
"Yeah, c'mon. It'll be fun!" She jumps
"Fun?" I cross my arms. "Don't be ridiculous."
"Awe why not?! I want to get stronger, just like you!" She flex's her bicep
"Heh." She smiles widely
"You can teach Eri too! So she can better manage her quirk! And Lia! Once she's older
Powered by Love and Magic our family will be unstoppable! Just like the incredibles!"
She pumps her fist in the air with a smirk drawn on her face
"Nghk." I grit my teeth
What the hell is she playing in her head?
"Kehehe." She giggles before there was a knock at the door
"That must be Erza!" Cana hurries to the door
I follow behind
"Rawr!" Eri shouts
"Kya?!" Cana leaps behind me after Odin marches in as a small T-Rex with Lia napping on his head
Eri follows behind inside an inflatable T-Rex costume
"I got her these, but she wanted to be a little cow" Erza dangles a pair of T-Rex pj's over her head.
Odin carefully steps inside
Cana scoops Lia up before Odin turns into a Lynx to play with Carrot
"Hmh." Erza smiles as Cana takes Lia away
"Fuck you looking at?"
"Nothing." She giggles
"Tell me."
"Just…" she shrugs. "To think we were competing with Cana all along."
"She just so happened to get pregnant." I cross my arms.
"Yeah, sure." She smiles "oh, also… Midnight said, "Madam president wants to see you."
"Oh yeah?"
"Mhmm… as soon as possible. Think it might have to do with…" She waves at Eri after she caught the worried look on her face
Eri waves as Cana leads her to bed
"Take care of them, alright?"
"Tch." I cross my arms
"Mhm." She smiles
I shut the door and head to the bathroom
I brush my teeth before stepping into the shower
Cana joins me moments later
She steps out of her dress and kicks her panties aside
After brushing her teeth she jumps in with me
"Pfft." She blows the soap out of her mouth
I wiped her hair aside as she began scrubbing it down.
My mind was reeling with the memories of seeing her again
It's been a few months since then.
How long exactly, I'm not sure..
My sense of time has been skewed for a very long time
Spending time with her seems to quicken the pace. But whenever we're alone like this I find myself in awe with her…
Beauty.
That's when times slows
I feel an odd sense of peace, tranquility. One that I have never felt..
To think it would come from simply gazing upon this… face.
…
Cana was preparing breakfast with Lia the following morning
Eri was half asleep, preparing the table
"Wado-wado." Lia chats with Cana
"Yes mama, Strawberry."
"You want one, Lia? Can I give her one?" Eri asks
"Sure." Cana smiles before seeing that I was at the door
"You're not going to have breakfast?" Cana sets Lia down in her chair before joining me at the door
"I have to run an errand. It won't be long."
"Okay…" she opens her arms
"What?"
She crunches her fingers
I lower my head
She locks her fingers behind my neck and reels me in
She pressed her lips against mine.
I kiss and suck on her bottom lip, laced with the syrup she's been sneaking spoons of
…
She pulls away and sets a hand on my chest
"Be careful, alright?"
…
"Y-Yeah…" I nod
I hold her gaze before jumping out a window down the hall
I put all of Madam President's security to sleep with my mere presence as I strolled through her mansion to meet her
"I don't recall inking an invitation to my home estate."
"What do you want?"
"You know exactly what I want." She turns to face me
"Well." I smile. "You're not going to have her."
"Her quirk can be of great use to the criminal justice system."
"Maybe, but it can just as easily be used to control the masses, am I wrong?"
…
"Don't play me for a fool, Yokumiru. I've killed for less than that."
…
"Why protect the girl? I never took you as one to care."
…
"My… woman has taken a liking to her."
…
"Touch a hair on her head…" My essence spews to the four corners of the room. "and I'll saw your fucking head of myself.
She does a very good job to hide to indomitable fear drowning her mind
I disappear before she'd break character and burst into tears so she'd fool herself into thinking she saved face.
…
Pov.
-Cana-
"Useless." I grumble "this isn't useless!" I wiggle my butt with the starlight spell twinkling over my head as I try to find the Little potato Lia threw under the bed
"Found it!"
"Yay!" Eri claps along with Lia
"Neee!" Lia races over in her wheelie chair
I scoop her up and she tries to grab the starlight over my head
"That's so cool!" Eri twirls
But Kara's right.
These spells are useless when it comes down to it
I need to be strong enough to protect them.
I take Lia and Eri to the library to find some magic books
…
Eri and I carry all of them back to our dorm room
Now… offensive magic.
I flip through the pages
…
3 hours later…
"So… cute! Look!" I wiggle my real life cat ears
"Super cute!" Eri shrieks
"I have a tail too, look!" I wiggle my tail
This is going to take my cosplays into a whole nother level!
"Me too! Me too!" She jumps
"Alright-Alright." I raise my wand
"By moon's light and feline grace, transform this form into a cats-… uhh…"
What was it again?
Wait… that wasn't it…
"Wh-." Before I could correct myself Eri disappears
"Kya! No!" I shriek after seeing the small white cat with a little horn on its forehead that took her place
"No-No!"
"Meow?" She tilts her head
"I'm sorry- I'm sorry!" Lia claps as I put her down
I hurry to look for a spell to turn her back as she runs around with Carrot and Odin
Lia laughs hysterically, bumping into every corner as she chases behind them in her chair
I was about to burst into tears when Kara finally arrives
"Kara!" I scoop Eri up
"Please, you have to help her…" I tear up
"Is that…" he tilts his head
"Mhmm." I nod, shamefully
With a sigh he waves his hand
"Nya!" Eri shrieks before turning back to normal
I flip her around
"Eri!" I bring her in as I drop to my knees
"Hehehe, that was fun." She giggles as Lia pets her head
"What's this?" Kara pats my head
"Like them? Cute, huh?" I wiggle my cat ears
