"Pick you up?" Shoji said looking at you curiously after you had asked him if he could lift you up—for no actual reason really.

He looked at you as if waiting for you to tell him it was a joke, but when he didn't saw you back down from the request, he gave it a second thought.

"Mh... well," He muttered with a sigh, taking a step closer and lifting you up in his arms with ease, as if you weighted nothing to him.

"Happy now?" He asked somewhat casually as he tried to make sure you were comfortable. Jesus, he was a lot stronger than you thought he was.
