A Collection Of Very Short Stuff

Much to my surprise Yosuke can be… Surprisingly clingy. Though point it out and he would just deny it. Or something like that. Why? Well…

It happened out of nowhere. I was simply doing my work, a customer suddenly approaching me and asking about something he needed. Though the conversation took an unexpected turn, suddenly turning more personal. Not just that but this customer had also gotten closer, his grin uncomfortably wide. I didn't know what to do, what to say. My voice was stuck, frozen. I never had to handle something like that before. Regular customers? Sure but someone like this…

Yet before I have a chance to scramble an answer together I feel an arm wrapping around my waist all of a sudden. I feel someone's warmth on my back. I lift up my head, spotting the one behind me. It’s Yosuke and he’s making a grimace unusual for him. His eyes sharp, almost with the intention to kill. Only to shift into a smile moments later, the usual polite one at work. Yet even that is filled with indescribable sinisterness.

“Sir, the aile is right there.” He points out, his free hand pointing into the direction.

The customer let out a sudden ‘tch’ after probably eyeing the scene himself. I can't tell. I don't see him. I’m only debating if I should be impressed or scared. “Yeah, yeah. Got it.” The guy scoffs, his steps echoing further and further. “Get a room.”

I blink, just barely managing to get out a word. Finally. “Uhm… Thanks.”

All of a sudden something makes him snap. For a second he looks as if processing the situation, then looking down with his gaze and noticing the position we are in. Suddenly he lets go, facing away. “Ah– S… Sorry! I was just–”

“No, it's ok.” I shake my head. Something about this is… Assuring? I don't know but in some way I don't mind too much. “Let’s just get back to work.”

I hear him gulp yet also see him nodding. “R… Right…”

Hah… Guess I’ll owe him big this time.
