On The Road Again Part Two
Eiji sat as still as possible as the girl next to him slept. He couldn't keep his gaze off her as she breathed in and out slowly. He slowly reached over to tuck a lock of her hair behind her ear but remembered what Mai had said and began to slowly retract it only to be caught by Ai's hand. Eiji was confused as to what was going on because Ai's eyes were still closed but when he felt her hand clasp on to his interlocking their fingers he couldn't help but feel happy. Ai even shifted her head to his chest making his heartbeat even faster. He dared not move even a single centimeter. He did not want her to wake up and let go of his hand. Her hand was small but soft with a few calluses here and there.
