The water rippled around her as Hanako pawed at her coat, shooing away the stubborn chunks that still clung to her fur. She was fine-ish- with doing it on her own but the fact that Azure stooped down to her stinky level to help out made her heart feel all fluttery in her chest. From the beginning she'd been trying to worm her way around his defences, to be someone he genuinely wanted to spend time with but now that she'd more than achieved that goal she couldn't help but feel a but unsure on where she stood. On where she wanted to be this time next year. Though she admittedly hadn't thought much about it her mind went back to their conversation in her den, of the words they'd exchanged and the implications. Wasn't it only natural then that he helped her out like this? That he was able to look beyond the ick and still see the pretty Hanako beneath? Her face flushed hot and she nodded mindlessly a this words, not really hearing what he was saying.
Or at least till he made a promise to her. For the first time that day Hanako really smiled, wide and beaming as her eyes creased at the corners. He offered her so much and being the selfish girl she was she wanted to take it all, to be the only one who could make him happy.
"I'd really like that, Az." And it had been a long time coming too, had they ever just done stuff together cause they wanted to? Not that she could recall, busy heir that Azure was. "We can finally go fishing, like you promised." She teased, only to drop the matter as she met Azure in the middle for a very sweet, if not chaste nose boop.
