[It was mutual. Sure, Neo Tokyo was a city that was more alive at night than it was during the day, and the late night 'dates' he had with girls were a casual outing for him...but he couldn't think of one time he did something like this with a girl.
Just hanging out, enjoying her company, noticing how her voice hitches when she giggles. How her hair dangles perfectly to frame her face... it's enough to get a warm smile spreading across his lips, and one he doesn't have to try to put on, either.
The fact that he'd do this every night with her without complaint. Being with her is fun.
But the one word that can grab his attention more than anything is uttered, and his head whips to look at her, brows raised. There's something about that word that's very...final. Serious. Like he needs to pay attention to her right now more than any other moment.
The way she said it, too...he doesn't know what's going to come out of those lips, and he'd be lying to himself if he said that his heart didn't have a brie moment of freezing shock from it.]

Yeah...?
[It's all he can say.]
