Neither of you knew how you ended up here, together. A hunter and a demon, holding hands walking past large fish tanks. This went against everything Celine had trained you for, everything you and the girls stood for.
But in that moment you looked normal. Just a guy and his girlfriend stopping to look at the colorful fish under the soft blue lighting. Elderly couples smiled wistfully at the sight of young love as Jinu took a picture of you gawking at the jellyfish. And younger kids stopped and squealed at the sight of a Huntrix girl on a date with a Saja Boy like it was an epic music crossover.
"I like this," you confessed softly. Jinu perked up at the sound of your voice. He looked startled, like he was expecting you to see this as a game. A calculated move from both of you to get at the fans and learn each other's weaknesses.
"You.. you do?"
You nodded, tugging nervously on your braid. Your braid wasn't as long as Rumi's, but it was still done up tight with clear netting woven in. When Jinu stared at you, he looked human. And not because he was in his human form, but because you saw emotion in his eyes. Almost like..
Almost like he still had a soul.
Jinu reached for your braid, "You should let your hair down more often."
