Chapter 32 - 32 The Week's End(Part 3)

As Green, met Cold Blue.

Ezze leaned forward and furrowed her brows, and typed on her device.

"Null, your not okay."

She stated.

"What?, how would you know, huh Esmeralda."

Null questioned her.

Now Ezze, scowled not at him rather at this situation.

She then erased and typed.

"Your, normally more emotional when concerning situations like Jern, and i don't know what your talking about."

Null squeezed his eyes tight then opened them...

As Green, met purple.

"Seems I am, not acting okay..." Null admitted as he turned away, but then felt a pinch of pain on his cheek.

He rubbed it and looked at the pouting Ezze.

Null sighed.

"Sorry, Ezze i didn't mean to be rude." He said as he looked away, then Ezze grabbed the sides of his face and she looked at him, they faces close.

"I'll, try not to repeat this." He said.

She let him go, satisfaction clear on her face, this satisfaction was boosted as Null ate her sandwiches, and he seemed to enjoy it just fine.

'I almost did something i would of regretted... I almost lost an asset.' Null thought.

[STAMINA: 170/170 ]

After eating some of the sandwiches he glanced at Ezze, who looked back at him with a curious gaze.

He broke some bread, from the last sandwich and fed it too her.

'Did, he just....?' Ezze mentally questioned, she didn't put any resistance, neither was she embarrassed, she did the same, did she not.

But even though, is this a gesture like thanks.

But Null had different thoughts.

'I, think this might be cause of that boy... That little piece of tr, ouch!' before Null could really finish that thought.

Ezze, flicked his forehead.

And she looked at him with furrowed brows.

"Why'd you do." He asked calmly.

She pointed at her eye, then at his.

"Because you hit, me." He said back.

She, shook her head, in disagreement.

"What are, you trying to explain here?"

She, sighed and then typed on her device.

"They, were blue before that so i flicked your head."

Null read than, sighed.

'She, seemed frustrated at needing to type, for communication and...'

"You said you don't, like babysitting, so, sorry i didn't keep my word." Null said, frustrated.

More at the situation he found himself.

'That 'NightMare' got me, heh now i understand the name, it's hard to deal with nightmares.' unbeknownst to Null, Ezze glared at the sight of Null's blue eyes.

She didn't hate the eyes, she thought they were cool, but because of how Null is acting she could not really consider them cool for the time being.

She then placed her hand on his head, he looked up and saw Ezze point at him then back to herself.

Then she breathed in and out.

'She, wants me to... breath in and out?' Null looked at Ezze who had her eyes closed.

Null looked at her, then he closed his own, then copied her.

He, listened to how she breathed in and like pouring water on plants, she slowly let her breath out her nose.

They did this, facing each other letting themselves, be.

The dorm room was stagnant, there was no shifting of features, adjusting one self to be comfortable ,nothing, but, the rhythmic breathing of the two occupants.

Then it stopped, as Null's eyes opened wide.

Purple, gazed into green.

"That, helped really well.." Null said something on his mind.

'it made me feel, like I was back in the mindscape, but I was not.' Null thought, and looked at the holograph projecting from the device on her wrist.

"I get mad fast, so i thought that would help, regardless if this is how you normally are."

Null looked at the text, then looked at Ezze with a blunt face.

"You don't like typing." He stated.

Ezze hearing this was about to type on the device...

But... Didn't.

She lowered her hands to her sides.

She, just nodded.

Null kept quiet.

"Let's try communicating." Null suggested.

But it brought confusion to Ezze.

She then was about to type on the device, but...

Null stopped her hand.

"Let's communicate." Null said.

Then Ezze's eyes widen, than she energeticly was thinking of something, putting effort in.

"Try a question first." Null said.

She then thought of something.

She, waved her hand over her face, then dropped her expression, then tilted her head, a questioning expression evident.

"My, expression?" Null asked.

Ezze, nodded.

"That's how I am." Null answered.

Ezze narrowed her eyes.

"You don't believe me?"

She nodded.

Null kept quiet, then looked away.

"Then, believe what you want." Null spoke but the next second green was what he could see, his head between two hands.

"What?"

Ezze, smiled and went back to her narrowed eyed expression she repeated this a few times.

"You want me to smile, really that's what you want?" Null asked.

Ezze nodded.

Null looked at her and just had a blunt face.

Ezze pouted, due to his reaction.

"You're older, yet your acting like a child." Null said.

Her expression didn't change.

Null stared in her emerald eyes.

He sighed and he smiled.

It was not even a big smile at all.

But even though, she still won.

Ezze gained a wide smile and her hands lifted into the air...

Then dropped them to the side.

"You can be open here, him the only one here."

Null said.

She looked at him with a awkward smile and a bead of sweat.

"Ok?" Null questioned.

She, looked him than, nodded, but looked hesitantly at her device.

She didn't want to type on it, she was having fun, even though how mundane it was.

"You still can use your device, you know?" Null asked.

She immediately typed on it.

"When i, have been open with people they get uncomfortable with me so, I like being like this."

Null looked then asked grinning.

"Like how you sprinted, and i saw that grin." He teased.

'His, back to teasing again.' She thought, not amused, but a tiny tint of red across her face.

"Let's continue than." Null suggested.

And Ezze nodded.

They kept on doing this, sometimes going back to use the wrist device.

And there were times when, Null's anger spiked but Ezze helped out.

Then after a while, there, dorm room door opened but they didn't notice while they were still distracted.

Null glanced at the last piece of Sandwich.

He took it a fed it too Ezze but Ezze over extended and bit his finger. He pulled back and Ezze laughed.

"What's...going on?"

Null glanced from where the voice came from, so did Ezze as she stopped laughing.

It, was Lumina.
