69 Saes Confession (1/2)
Axel, Makoto and Sae all sat at the table and silently ate their snacks. Sae glanced at the pair in confusion as she said, ”Is anybody going to tell me what happened while I was gone?”
However, all she got was silence. She groaned before angrily shoving her sandwich into her mouth. Suddenly, she noticed both Axel and Makoto looking at her in shock.
All they got in return though was an eye roll as Sae silently continued to eat her sandwiches. A soft sigh came from Axel's mouth as he spoke, ”Sorry Sae, I promise nothing bad happened. It's just… a little awkward to talk about.”
Sae paused for a second before turning towards Makoto with an eyebrow raised, ”Did you go back and look at Axel's naked body again?”
Makoto choked on the sandwich she was eating while Axel gave Sae an incredulous look. With a darken blush on her face, Makoto screamed, ”I didn't try and peek on him, OK!?! We were just talking about something and I got embarrass!”
Sae tilted her head as she said, ”Were you talking about his body? I, myself, am quite intrigued on how he trained to get such an absurd body. I'm also quite curious on how he managed to get those scars, especially the one near his heart.”
Axel winced slightly when she mention the scar near his heart. He knew that Sae was probably only concerned about him but the subject of his scary was something Axel didn't want to talk about.
Obviously, Makoto managed to see Axel's wince and kicked her sister in the shin. Sae hissed in pained and glared at her sister, only for Makoto to glare back at her as she mouthed, 'Stop talking…'
Her anger turned into confusion as Sae raised an eyebrow and muttered, ”Why?”
Makoto said nothing in return as she motioned towards Axel with her eyes. Sae glanced towards Axel and saw how his smiled seemed slightly forced.
His eyes, however, held a pain so deep that Sae flinched when he met her gaze. Panic took over Sae as she blurted out, ”I think your hot!”
Everyone at the table froze as Sae's confession set in. Makoto gave her sister an appalled look while Sae paled as she realized what she just said. Axel, however, paused for a few seconds before bursting into a fit of laughter.
Once he stopped laughing, Axel stared into Sae's eyes and sensually purred in a deep tone, ”Your not so bad yourself, you know?”
Sae's face turned a deep red while Makoto stared at Axel with wide eyes. Heck, even Axel was a little surprised on how that came out. All he wanted to do was tease the poor girl, not seduce her.
Though, if he was going to be honest, the thought of seducing Sae popped up more times than he'd like to admit.
I mean, could you blame him? She was a ten out of ten in his eyes. Mentally berating himself for thinking with his other head, Axel was about to apologize when Sae leaned across the table and, to the shock of both Axel and Makoto, softly kissed his cheek.
It was a short, chaste kiss but that didn't stop Axel from blushing as he absent-mindedly touched the spot she kissed and stuttered, ”Y-you… kissed me?”
Sae suddenly became like a meek little girl as she shrunk into a ball and nodded. Makoto, having finally gotten over her initial shock, jumped to her feet as she slammed her hands onto the table, ”That's not fair, onee-chan!!!”
Before anyone could react, Makoto stormed out of the lounge and locked herself inside Axel's bedroom. The table became quiet once more as both Axel and Sae just stared at each other.
After a few minutes, Sae coughed into her hand as she slowly unraveled herself. With her blush mostly receded, Sae softly sighed as she said, ”I should've never kissed you…”
Axel opened his mouth to disagree when Sae gently placed her fingers against his lips as she continued with a soft smile on her face, ”Axel, I'm much older than you.”
Sae seemed to take damage when she mentioned her age, ”I also work for the police, so there's a chance that, just like my father, I too will die in the line of duty.”
”But your just a prosecutor!” Replied Axel.
A sad smile appeared on her face as she softly ruffled his hair, ”I know. But, I've made some rather... bad decisions and shady calls.”
”What I'm trying to say is… I'm not a good person, Axel. And I've made alot of enemies and I wouldn't put it past them to try and hurt me.” Explained Sae.
Stunned, Axel didn't know what to do or say, so he did the one thing that came to his mind. He hugged her. He felt her flinch in his arms but he proceed to hug her as he softly whispered words of comfort I into her ear.
