"Sure." Ritsuka answered though he crossed his arms guarding himself once more.
'Good… he appreciates a good figure.' Akeno giggled slightly as she sashayed her way up to Ritsuka.
'She's trying something… god it feels just like dealing with Artoria Alter and Jeanne Alter when they get it in their head that showing off their bodies gets my attention… I mean it works but this is far more dangerous…' Ritsuka mentally cringed while keeping his smile on his face.
"So how can I help you today Akeno. I mean I'm not exactly in the most decent positions at this time." Ritsuka chuckled as he showed that he was only in the undershirt and shorts combo at the moment.
"Ara ara… you naughty boy." Akeno giggled clearly amused. "In truth, I need you dressed though. So how about we get you something fancy to wear."
She traced a finger over his chest purring in elation as she did so. Even so he remained stoic enough to keep his wits about. He grabbed her hand slowly letting his fingers trail around hers keeping a gentle but firm grip on her hand.
"I have something if you want to hang out together. Though you should be careful. A young man like me might get the wrong idea about what you're doing." Ritsuka teased back which threw off her pace.
"S-such hopeful thoughts. Well you won't know until you get ready now, will you?" Akeno smirked clearly egging him on. The stutter broke the illusion and she was just as worried about things no matter how she portrayed herself.
'Can't let my guard down once… he's far too charming. Stupid deep blue eyes, genuine smile, kind personality… fuck… fuck fuck fuck…' Akeno tried her best to push the thoughts back.
It was something she didn't like to admit but she didn't want to get close to men. She didn't hate them but the failure of a certain person made her much more guarded. She knew most of the guys who went to Kuoh were nothin but perverts.
It was cute and a part of her wanted to crush that sort of thought. She couldn't help it, that look of despair was enthralling. The problem was that she didn't feel that off of Ritsuka as much. He was far too controlled and that threw off her game. The fact that he played the game right back with confidence she had never seen before in anyone was a bit intimidating.
'Oh boy… that was dangerous.' Ritsuka sighed as he took out his Royal Brand mystic code putting it on for this particular night.
He rubbed his hand down his face lost in thought once more. She was playing with him. He wouldn't say it out loud but it felt like dealing with BB. Even when he could feel that she did at least like him to a degree he knew she was playing with him. The difference was that BB was sadistic to the core and still pined for the Masters that appeared on those particular craft essences. He didn't know which one was the one she liked best but he knew she did like them more.
Akeno wasn't like that. Like most people Ritsuka met he could tell that she was hiding a lot through her eyes. Eyes were a window into the soul… something Moriarty would constantly repeat whenever he was being taught how to read people. Hurt, Loss… things he could relate to. But it would mean opening up… telling a bit about himself that shouldn't be told especially since he didn't know exactly how long he would be in that world.
Taking a deep breath he put on the face Kiritsugu and Irisviel had shown him to make whenever he wore the Royal Brand mystic code. Well, Irisviel wanted him to wear that expression more than Kiritsugu did. Kiritsugu was a little shocked but Ritsuka could never tell why. He was going to deal with this head on… just like everything he did in life because he had no choice but to do so.
'W-wow… so cool looking.' Akeno was taken aback by the person who stood before her.
Dressed in a black suit with grey undershirt Ritsuka looked exactly like a yakuza boss or a professional hitman. The only reason she thought that was because of the cold glare that painted his eyes and the serious demeanor that he held as he stepped before her.
'Crap… that look might be too much… must regain control.' Akeno lightly shook her head before sauntering over to Ritsuka's side wrapping her arms around his shoulders. His right arm was sucked in between her impressive cleavage. While he did soften his gaze he wasn't the stuttering mess she thought he would become.
"Guess this look does attract beautiful women far too easily. You good there beautiful." Ritsuka easily whispered out causing Akeno to shrink down slightly.
"D-don't-take this the wrong way. You are taking me out anyways." Akeno smirk quite sultrily brushing her fingertips across his covered chest.
"I don't mind but I don't know any good places." Ritsuka chuckled finally breaking the serious look he had on his faces. Akeno finally calmed down since he stopped looking so serious.
"Be careful Ritsuka-kun. You are spoiling me and I might just expect it more." Akeno teased cuddling deeper into Ritsuka.
"What can I say? I'm just weak to beautiful girls." Ritsuka sighed with a half shrug as he walked with Akeno slightly dragging him a certain way.
Rias stood at the bottom of the stairs. Akeno's turn was up and she was a bit worried about what she was going to do. She had a tendency of making guys nervous or overwhelmed. She wasn't expecting a very sharply dressed guy walk down with her best friend wrapped around him.
"Hi there… I guess we're going out tonight." Ritsuka called out though he didn't look the least bit disturbed or annoyed. That calm smile continued to break through. The same couldn't be said about Akeno who looked to be very worried and was blushing as well. Usually it would be the other way around when Akeno had to get guys to agree to contracts…
