➳❥ kaedehara kazuha ⋆｡ 🍁 °

he had no idea what her name was. He had no idea where she came from. He didn't actually know anything about her. But what he did know was that he wanted her to be okay. He didn't like that she was hurt, that someone had hurt her. He didn't like the idea of ​​someone else touching her at all. What Kazuha liked, however, was that he could hold her hand without making her feel uncomfortable. He liked being able to hold her and be there for her.

     He liked her. He couldn't deny that. He felt weird around her, but in a good way. She reminded him of so many things he loved. Her hair was colored like maple leaves in autumn, her eyes were as pink as cherry blossoms in spring and her voice was as gentle as a light breeze. Besides that she was kind, lovely with words and her clumsiness was fucking cute.

     Kimiko cleared her throat and squeezed his hand lightly, probably to get his attention. »Where exactly are you kidnapping me?«

     »I'm not kidnapping you.«

     »Well, I'm not tied up, but you lead me through a barely lit forest to a place I don't know.«

     He had to laugh a little. »That's true, but you really don't need to worry. After all, I saved you from your last kidnappers.« And he was really happy to have been there. He didn't even want to think about what could have happened.

     »And I'm grateful to you for that.. even though I still think I could have done it on my own.«

     It was true. She could fight a little, and she had a Vision, but still. The robbers were good at what they doing and Kazuha had seen them overpower even good fighters a few too many times.

     »But I have to admit, having a samurai by your side makes you feel safer.«

     »You, you feel safe with me?« He didn't mean to sound so nervous. He hated that she had such an effect on him. But there was nothing he could do about it.

     »Wasn't that obvious?«

     No. Well, maybe so, but Kazuha tried most of the time not to stare at her, not to act too embarrassing.. so he didn't really notice anything like that.

     »I mean I wouldn't let anyone drag me anywhere, Kazuha.« He felt a new, unfamiliar tingling sensation. His name sounded beautiful when she said it. And her little smile was a nice side effect. He felt himself getting warm and his cheeks certainly turned red. »But i think i can trust you.«

     Her smile was genuine and beautiful. He couldn't help but reciprocate and whisper a quiet, »You definitely can.«

     »Great, so do you want to tell me now where we are going?«
