"You wanted to see me,Ms.O?"
You were surprised that your crush,Agent Otto,had said the same thing as you at the same time.
"There you two are,something very odd has happened.Take a seat."
You and Otto exchanged looks but took a seat in frot of the boss.
"As you know,The Puppet Master likes to turn people and things into puppets but it seems like she has teamed up with The Puppy Master and is turning people into puppy puppets."
You raised an eyebrow but pretended as if you understood what was going on.
"I need you two to go into town and gather up every puppy puppet.Well?What are you waiting for?!GO!!"
You stood up but looked at Otto.
"But we aren't partners!"
Otto stood up and agreed.
"True but both of your partners have the day off.And I need you,"
Ms.O stood up and went to her juice bar,to get an apple juice box,and turned around only to become confused."What was I saying?"
Otto stepped in and informed her of what she had said.
"About how you need Ohana to do something."
"Oh yeah.I need you to keep Otto out of trouble.Last time Olive took the day off,he was competing with Oren to become captain fun,which he ended up hating."
Otto had stopped listening and was turning a dark red.Redder than a tomato.
"Yes ma'am.I won't let you down."
You lifted an eyebrow up at Otto and tried holding back your laughter.
"Come on Otto."
You laughed as soon as both of you walked out of the office,only to receive a glare from Otto.
"It's not funny!!"
Otto had proclaimed.
"Whatever you say.Captain Fun."
You skipped into tube number 2 while Otto took rhe one next to you,number 1.
"O'Flannahanarenegan,send us to town.
How would you know about being Captain Fun.You barely started working here!"
"SQUISHINATING!!"
"I've been working here for a year!!How does nobody know?!"
You stomped out of the tube but immediately regretted it because you ended getting your coat sleeve on a thorn.
Why didn't you see that there was a rose bush right where you jumped out from?
You struggled to get it out but it seemed the only way to remove it was to remove your coat.
It was what you did.Thing was that if you don't bandage your wrist after cutting,you could stain your white sleeve.Of blood.
thanks to Otto,you found out the hard way.
"Woah.Are you ok?Y-your wrist!!!...it's bleeding."
Odd dang it!!
You put on a fake smile and nodded,hoping he wouldn't want to look at your arm.You crossed your arms,placing the bleeding one underneath.
"Let's go find these puppy puppets."
For some reason,the boy wouldn't move umtil you showed him your arm.
"Why?"
You had kept asking.
"I want to see if your ok."
He had said.
"We can stay here all day,but I'm not moving until I know that your arm is ok."
He held out his hand for you to place your arm,but you didn't.Instead,he grabbed your arm and rolled up your sleeve.
The boy's expression changed from worried to disgusted to pity amd back to worry.
"Why?"
You just looked away and shook your head.
He gently placed his hand on your cheek and asked you once more.
"Ohana....why.....why would you do this to yourself?It's not right."
You took his hand off your cheek and continued shaking your head.
"I don't need your pity,Otto.It's my decision if I want to do this.Not yours.Besides,you don't know me."
You turned around but he made you stop in your tracks when he said.
"But it's also my decision if I want to worry about what my crush does when I don't see her."
You turned back around and looked him in his eyes.
"What did you say?"
"It's my decision if I want to worry what my crush does when I don't see her."
"But you don't know me!!And you said that I ba-"
"I was kidding.I know how long you've been working rhere.You became an agent right after Todd left.We barely see you because you like changing your jobs a lot.You started off as a health assistant but then you became a kitchen assistant and then a security guard and then you became a scientist and then you finally became an agent.I know.I see you around every day.You just don't see me like I see you."
He left you speechless.Your mouth was open and you felt stalked but loved at the same time.
"I'm going to ask you again and if yoh don't want to tell me,then ok.Why do you harm yourself?"
Time to confess.
"I do it.......because.....I'm....well my self esteem is low...and I feel like everyone hates me and that nobody loves me.It all started when I was just in 5th grade."
He probably thought you were a weirdo or a dork for caring if people like you or dislike you.
"Look,I get that but......you shouldn't take your anger or your sadness on yourself.If you ever need to talk to someone,I'm here for you."
He flipped his hair out his face and placed his hand on top of yours.
He eventually bandaged your wrists and had even gave you his coat.
"Otto?"
You and him were finally back at headquarters when something had popped into your head.
"Yeah?"
Was it right for you to ask him not to tell anyone?Not even tell Olive?
"Are you going to tell anyone about this?"
Your heart pounced as you awaited his amswer.
"No."
He stapled his files and looked back at you.He placed his hand on your cheek and gave you a blushing toothy grin.
"I won't tell anyone because it wouldn't be right for me to betray my friend's trust."
He gave you a smirk and scooted more towards you.
"I believe you owe me something."
You felt your cheeks gettig flustered.Or were they just blushing?Curse cheeks.You couldn't help but just smile like and idiot and nod your head.
"I believe I do."
You had finally figured out what he wanted as a favor when you looked at him.
"Dork."
You gave him a quick peck on the lips and wrapped your hands around his neck.You played with the sleeve of the jacket while the both of you just hugged for a while.The cute part was that you had to stand on his feet to hug him.And also that his coat was too big for you and it just looked like you were a little kid inside a huge sweater.
However,you enjoyed this.No matter what was going on outsode or inside.He was the one that you from getting anymore scars.
