Chapter 48 - 48 Party (2/2)

Several more hiccups came through the phone, and Gray frowned before a cheeky smile grew on his face.

”Kara?.... Are you drinking again?”.

Their was no immediate response from the teenage Kryptonian. A pregnant pause caused the corners of Gray's mouth to lift slightly before her voice came through the phone.

”....No?”, it sounded more of a question rather than an answer.

The thought of someone that would sell alien alcohol to minors caused Gray to frown, before his eyebrows raised slightly and he turned to the direction of his penthouse.

”Did you break into my apartment again?”.

Once again their was a slight pause in Kara's response time.

”What?! No, of course not! That would be irresponsible and completely illegal! Not to mention that the person who owns the building would have to pay for a broken window when he got back.....”.

Kara could hear Gray's loud sigh through the phone.

”Kara.... are you drunk dialing me?”.

The caller on the other end hung up quicker than Gray could blink. It seems that Kara had started to become aware of his actions, and placed his phone back in his pocket, sighing at the actions of the young Kryptonian.

All teenagers were the same, no matter what universe they were in. And no matter what race they were.

”Sorry fellas. But she's with me”.

Sending Gray a thankful look as he pulled her away from the group of guys, the Pseudo-Servant walked to the opposite end of the house, pressing the buŧŧon for the elevator to carry him to the bottom.

The girl looked at Gray from her group of friends that she was hanging out with, noticing from afar the changes in the man's demeanor as he smiled at her as the elevator doors closed. A wave of familiarity could be seen in his eyes, but the girl couldn't quite put her finger on it.

”What is it Rin? See something you like?”.

”Rin's” friend looked at face of Gray that disappeared as the doors closed, getting a cheeky smile on her face as she rubbed her chin thoughtfully.

”Oh? The Ojou-sama found somebody she likes?”.

Rin instantly turned red in the face and shook her head violently.

”No! Seriously Ayako, what gave you that idea?”.

Her brunette friend shrugged her shoulder as she saw a white haired and purple haired girl coming towards them, a disgusted look on both of their faces.

”What's wrong Sakura? Caren? Did someone try to hit on you?”.

The petite white haired girl nodded and looked at the other purple, seaweed haired boy trying to talk up a buxom American girl. The four girls all gave disgusted looks at Shinji, who was obviously taking this trip to America more liberally than the others.

Ayako sighed and patted Rin's back.

”Too bad Shirou couldn't come. He would've kept Shinji in check”.

Rin nodded absently, he mind wandering to the familiar, yet unfamiliar face of the man she met earlier.

Something about him..... was inexplicably familiar ....
