With his phone flipping shut and a wry-grin displaying along his face, he expected that Nill would come running to him -- in ten minutes, no less -- and it was expected that she would lunge at him in this state (reeking of grit and dirt from Abyss, his clothing and whatever skin that was exposed scraped with filth, not like he could care less, really.) and wrap her slender arms around his neck. Yeah, how could he not return a cute gesture like that
( ... )
It was a pretty slow night. Naruto was wiping up after the last customer who had left only moments before, and secretly praying that another slob like that didn't show up the rest of the night, or more broth would end up on the counter and ground than the customer's stomach. And it was always a pain to watch that go to waste, and then to have to clean it up.
Bu hearing footsteps approaching, Naruto looked up and grinned widely. "Yo Niiiiiiiiill!" he cried, waving excitedly. "Come for more sodium induced satisfaction?" He stopped wiping and leaned on the counter, noticing the man Nill was walking with. Naruto's grin turned mischievous. "Who's your boyfriend? Need an extra big bowl?" he snickered.
When Naruto grinned at her, the blond grinned in return, just as brightly as his-- if not a bit more so, to some degree. Nothing could beat her today, for once, for the first time in what felt like an eternity even though it had barely been a few weeks. She gave a nod at the first question, of course, who didn't love sodium? But abruptly stopped at the second, cheeks turning bright red.
She glanced back at Mello before shifting her line of sight downward, the wings on her back fluttering slightly in her flustered state, before pulling out her cellphone and quickly typing out a message, before holding the phone out for Naruto to see it whilst also making a gesture towards the older blond. 'This is Mello.'
She then pulled the phone away and typed up another message before holding it up for Mello to see. 'This is Naruto.'
Leather entwining with his hair as he glanced along Naruto -- expecting the other blonde to make some wise-ass accusation that he was some guy that got off on younger chicks (Wouldn’t have been the first time -- ) so it was expected for the Mello to emit a dangerous critical heated glare for a moment. But that was quickly dissolved into a short curt dry laugh at his question of his own and Nill’s relationship.
" -- Yeah." He spoke impulsively; almost mocking in the words amused sounds, "Something like that." And with a leather-gloved hand he ruffled Nill’s hair with a gentle feathery gesture, looking down at her with a wry-smirk that spoke volumes in his sarcasm. Him and Nill were completely different species, he thought. But they’ve learnt to co-exist.
"Naruto? Isn't that another name for kamaboko?" Words spoken with a light scoff, "Pretty ironic that you work at a ramen store."
