Chapter 18

[It's not for me Ruben it's for a girl I've met, she seems like the perfect girl for your show plus I feel like you and here match each other's energy and style. If you can I want her to be your next model, can you give her a chance.]

[ Omg, Ekko you actually found yourself a girlfriend😭😭😭 I'm so proud, I thought you were going to stay single forever. Does shelly know? If not I need to tell her right away ]

[ No it's nothing like that, and don't tell shelly, the last thing I need is a twenty-minute lecture on how to keep a girl happy. So can you do what I asked.]

[ Mhh, Send me her portfolio, and ill see if she's suitable.]

[We're not at her house right now can I just send you a few pictures of her posing.]

[ That works too.]

" Hey, Ekko I'm done. What do you think." Great timing, just as Ekko needed Rangiku she appeared.

Turning around he saw Rangiku in a pair of form-fitting Blue jeans and still wearing his top which was made into a makeshift Crop top With the hem of the shirt tied up in a not. It exposed her cleavage and her sexy flat stomach.

Ekko paused admiring her looks and body. Rangiku was happy with his reaction. Rangiku wasn't your typical Japanese girl who liked to cover up but acted more like European girls who weren't afraid to show off skin.

" You look beautiful like always, Hey can you do me a Favour," Ekko replied before asking her a question.

" Mhh, what is it?"

"Can I take a few pictures of you, and can you pose like you would On a catwalk." Ekkos supposed Favour, surprised Rangiku and the butterfly's from yesterday's incident started bubbling again.

" Ara, so you want to take pictures of me, don't worry I won't ask what you'll use them for later." She winked, thinking he was going to use it for a certain activity. Of course, she misunderstood, but Ekko wasn't going to correct her.

So he switched his camera app on and pointed it at Rangiku. But when he looked through the camera screen he was surprised to see how serious she looked.

Her face almost showed no emotion and she positioned herself like she was taking a photo shoot. She had one hand going through her locks and the other was rested in here Jean's pocket.

Ekko blinked, he was so out of it that he had forgotten to take the photo. Rangiku noticing Ekko's Ogling smiled.' looks like mama still got it.'

" Did my looks shock you that much?" Rangiku said in a raspy and provocative tone that sent shivers down Ekkos's spine.' This woman was dangerous for his blood pressure.'

Ekko finally woke himself up and took the photos. Rangiku struck several different poses some professional and some...cough...well some pictures were only ever going to be seen by him.

He only sent the best-looking ones to Ruben. As for the more risqué pictures, he saved them under a password-locked file.

"Hey, hey, let me see them. Mh, that one is good...Oh, I know you're going to have a great time with that one...that one doesn't show off how big my butt is, delete that one."

Rangiku after the shoot came behind Ekko to look at the photos. There were some she liked and some she didn't like, and Ekko had no choice but to delete the ones she didn't like.

Ekko never understood why girls repeatedly took multiple photos in the same pose, only to delete it and take the same picture, they all looked the same to him.

"Alright, thanks for that...do you need to be anywhere today." Ekko asked.

" Yes I need to head home, and then go to work, so I should be heading out now." Rangiku said staring at Ekko.

" Is that so, there's something I need to do as well, but since I have time ill walk you home."

Ekko decided to walk Rangiku home one because in the meanwhile if Ruben accepts Her as the potential fith model then he wants to tell her right away, and two he was going to search for that cat.

He was killing two birds with one stone.

Rangiku hearing Ekko wanted to Walk her home was happy but when she remembered where she lived she didn't want to show him.

" There's no need, really ill be fine walking back on my own." She tried to tell him there was no need but Ekko had already made up his mind, and Rangiku couldn't stop him.

But before the two set off, Ekko excused himself for a second before he went to buy a jacket in the system store. 

All Rangiku had was a T-shirt and even though the weather was nice it was still a bit windy so he bought her a pink tonal check trucker jacket.

" Hey Rangiku, it's still windy Outside and I don't want you catching a cold so wear this. Think of it as a gift, from our first meeting, so you can keep it." Ekko presented her with the jacket and Rangiku just stared at it. The only other people who had ever given her a present was her mother and brother... and now, a third person has been added to that list.

Rangiku opened her arms wide to Ekkos's confusion, before he finally understood what she wanted and rolled his eyes at her childish actions. Ekko put the sleeves of the Jacket through both of her arms and sorted the collar.

Rangiku looked at the jacket and spun around. She liked it a lot.

"Thanks, Ekko, I love it." Rangiku really did like it.' If I have time and enough money I need to try and get him something as well.

"Your welcome, now let's head out."

"Umu!"

Walking out the front door, Ekko closed it before the pair made it to the front gate. Rangiku glared at the gates like they were her greatest enemy.

" Hey Ekko, let me try and open the doors this time, I was so close yesterday." Ekko was amused and told her to have at it.

He was also interested if she could actually pull the gates open, one day ago she couldn't even budge them but yesterday she somehow managed to open the gate by a few inches.

Rangiku took a deep breath before pulling with all her might, but no matter how much she pulled they just wouldn't move.

" Pfft, you can do it, I think it's actually moving a bit."

"Really!!"

"A!!! my bad, I was just seeing things."

"Bastard!"

Just when Rangiku was tiring out she decided to give it one last push. Ekko who had been laughing and watching stopped and stared at Rangiku dumbfounded.

That was because unlike before where he was joking this time he could see the doors physically moving, but not only that, he could also sense an unknown energy seeping out of Rangiku.

"What the hell is that." But before he could investigate further that energy disappeared and so to did Rangikus's burst of inhuman strength.

Rangiku gasped catching her breath but smiled when she saw, that the door had actually opened if only a bit but that was better than nothing.

'Looks like this girl isn't as normal as I previously thought.'

After that Ekko opened the doors like it was nothing to the mild annoyance of Rangiku and the two started walking back to her house. They would first have to Walk through town before they needed to catch a train.

As the two strolled away Rangiku talked about all the types of things Ekko could do in Tokyo and even recommended some food stalls and Ramen shops she and her brother like to go to when they feel like treating themselves.
