My head hurts. It seems to almost constantly...I've had it checked. They say nothing's wrong. I don't see how it could hurt so much and there be no real explination. Maybe it's because of him... every time I'm near him it feels like my head is spinning anyways. There's just..something. And it's like I'm scared, but I'm in so much awe I can't run. But.. I don't want to run. I just want to fall into his arms and stay there, safe and content. Everything contradicts; I want to run, I want to stay; I want him to leave me alone, I want him to protect me from the world around me. I can't really figure it out.

"..X?"

The boy whirls around, shaken from his thoughts.
"Hai?"

"You feeling any better? That hit you took on the head screwed up your sensors a bit, they said. They were afraid they'd have to take the time to realign everything."

X shrugs, managing a weak smile. His world was spinning again.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Still a bit sore..but..that happens.."

Zero lifts his head a bit, glancing more towards the ceiling than X. He looks awkward, almost annoyed.
"Yeah.. I was thinking..once you were feeling better, you wanna go out to dinner? I mean..like an actual nice dinner?"

X stares at him for a long while.
...date...
"...yeah, sure, sounds great. Tomorrow night?"

"...sure. I better get going, now. Work to do.... See ya."
He doesn't even look at X again, turning and leaving the way he had come.

X smiles.

You make my world spin.
