Winter is coming (21)

........

...

The silence between the two of them was quite loud.

Well, it was to be expected...he was offering her a pad after all.

"...hum...what is this," She said her face flushing a bit.

"Hum..you see...its...well...a menstrual pad, it's like a diaper you put on when you are, you know, in that time of the month...it helps keep everything clean and not dirty your underwear," Akira said stuttering a lot.

He couldn't believe he was talking like this.

Sure mentally he was about 17, however, physically he was 12 and his body was acting like any 12-year-old would.

He did not know why speaking about stuff like that got him stuttering like crazy.

...

"...you made it for...me.."

"Y...e...s.."

Goddam it, why couldnt he help himself from just stuttering like there was no tomorrow.

"Thank you" She added shyly as she took the pads from his hands.

Well she seem okay for now.

Time skip a few days.

As he was watching their clothes, he felt so happy when he noticed a lack of stained blood on her undergarment.

Even if he used a glove to watch them, he still felt kind of glad that there was no longer any stain there.

He was happy, his product worked, and he wouldnt have to worry about bloodstains for atleast a year, considering he had gifted her about 12 of them.

She was big chilling.

Once he finish washing the clothes, he placed them in the spot where they would dry, he could feel the winter coming but he was ready for it.

Over the summer,spring,autum, he had been collecting dried tree branches...he had enough wood to last him the whole winter...5 time over.

It never hurted to be to more prepared.

As the clothes finished drawing, he neatly prepare them and place them inside the bag he was carrying.

Once that was done, he made his merry way back home, he did make sure to take the soap with him.

As he made his way back to the house, Krista could be seen plucking out the last fruits and vegetables that they had growned.

Considering the winter was going to kill them, it was better that they were stored now rather than later.

Upon noticing him, she gave him a bright smile.

He smiled back at her as the both of them enter the house and started small talk.

"How was your day?" She asked softly as she brew them some hot tea.

"It was fine thank you" He said calmly.

"Did you store all the meat properly" He said softly looking at her.

She smiled before showing him that she had indeed store them properly.

Though she didnt seem to like the taste of the food anymore.

"It taste like military food" She said softly, she had growned used to his cooking, now everything felt extremely bland to her.

She needed flavor in her meal and that stored meat was not going to do her any good.

"Rabbits still come out in the winter so there is chance i can catch some and make us some soup" he said calmly as looked at the ceiling of the house.

Momentarily activating his byakugan, he made sure that all of the point of the house were solid and there was no chance it would fall unless something catatrosphic happen.

And luckily for him, he had place good care on the house so it would be fine for now.

Upon finishing with the tea, she served it to him.

He thanked her, she was starting to learn more and more stuff about surviving in the wild, and she was getting more independent as the day went by.

Although she seemed like she was getting a bit too dependent on him for emotional support...for a second it looked like she might have a crush on him.

He brushed off the idea of her liking him away, wasnt she like a lesbian in the show, if he remember correctly she was with this Ymir chick, and from all the stuff he saw online, he never watched the full show and only got to the female titan arc himself.

To be more exact, he got to the area where they were trying to trap the titan, he left off just as they were dozing off at a tower.

That was where he personally left, but the whole show had been completed for a while now, and thus he got spoiled a bit, thankfully he never looked up the terms.

All he really knows is that Eren basements have some secrets in them, and Krista crying after reading a letter from Ymir.

Though she did look pregnant in the picture he saw, he wondered who she had settled down with.

Considering how much spunk she had, he was sure she found someone loving, someone she could be herself with.

For some reason, he himself couldn't believe his words, as if a part of him was telling him to stop believing in his lies.

"Thank you," he said thanking her with a smile.

She blushed at that, she seemed really happy when he praised her.

As he drinked the tea, she opened her mouth and said.

"Hum...do..you have more pads...." Her two index fingers we?re fidgetting around nervously, she was nervous while asking this.

"Don't you have 11 more" He said looking at her.

She blushed heavily before saying "...hum...I used them all..."

..

..

She seemed very embarrassed as she said those words.....though he could tell she was very comfortable with him if she could tell him stuff like that.

"Sorry..if I am being a burden"

He look at her with his pupiless white eyes before saying "Guess I have to make them, extra, extra absorbent just for you, plus you are my compagnion, you are not a burden"

"...Thank you...." her cheeks were flushing red.

He may not realize it yet but at this point in time his knowledge about who she might end up with in the canon had been messed up as he was here and unless he died, the person she would be with had been decided.
