Always Room at the Top
ibuki said throwing an arm around dulion. the couple turned to talk to the other people at their station leaving dulion and ibuki free to chat. "not too long?" dulion asked? "no need for them to know." ibuki said.
Tears and Fears
A few moments of silence passed as ibuki and dulion ate. as they did, ibuki noticed the weird looks the two were getting from a few of the other tenants.
A Challenging Time
ibuki smiled and gave dulion a peck on his lips. "despite what i know you think," she said, "you are worth getting jealous over." dulion gave ibuki a quick kiss of his own. "oh really?" he said. ibuki didn't answer.
Aftermath
ibuki whispered. "i..." dulion never finished his sentence. a kiss from ibuki took whatever he was going to say away from him. after the quick, initial burst of surprise, dulion returned ibuki's kiss. after a little, ibuki broke the kiss.
Welcome Home
ibuki asked. "honestly, because i'm stupid." dulion said. ibuki was about to say something before a loud pounding was heard on the door. "she's here already!?" ibuki said. "no. she's coming in twenty."
Turnabout Emotions
ibuki added. dulion sighed, but smiled. "give me a moment to get ready?" he said. "sure. we'll meet you by the front door." ibuki said. stephanie let out an expression of joy and walked with ibuki away from dulion's apartment.
Fired...Up
ibuki answered. without another word the doctor left to go to his room. ibuki quickly unlocked dulion's apartment and stepped inside. dulion's apartment was tidy, something ibuki thought befitted him. images of the night flooded her brain.
Falling into Place
The little girl looked at ibuki for a moment before tearing up again and shaking her head. ibuki put a comforting hand on her shoulder. "shh. come in. i'll get him for you." ibuki led the girl to the kitchen and gave her a tissue to dry her tears.
Knight on a White Charger
When ibuki and he made eye contact, he seemed to gallop towards her. ibuki didn't try to suppress her delight when he came up to her. dulion bent down and kissed her gently on the lips. "i love you." dulion said to her. "oh what's this?" ibuki mocked.
Uncaged
The three of them walked out of ibuki's bedroom door and down the hall. dulion and ibuki were slightly ahead of danielle.
