What the female rider said left Aiden a bit speechless. He muttered irritably, "The way you're saying that, you sound like so kind of female pervert."
Then he continued asking, "So who exactly are you, and why do you know ?"
"Female pervert… cough… you've misunderstood," the female rider said with a light cough. "But you're the previous King of Fighters tournant champion. Who doesn't know you? As for who I am…"
As she spoke, the female rider turned around again, pulled down the zipper of her motorcycle jacket, half taking it off, then gave a thumbs-up and pointed behind her. "You'll know once you see this."
Seeing the short-sleeved shirt on her back with a sun emblem printed on it, Aiden suddenly understood. "You're from the Kusanagi family… you're Kusanagi..."
"Kusanagi Aoi. Kyo's cousin."
The female rider turned back as she spoke, put her motorcycle jacket back on, and removed her helt. She didn't zip the jacket back up, though, so Aiden could clearly see how her full chest stretched the fabric open.
Aiden glanced once and then lowered his head. They'd just t, better not stare too much. But in his mind he was thinking: 'So it really is her, Kusanagi Aoi. Her figure really is pretty good, at least she looks better than Tsukihi…'
It had been said before that Aiden looks at a woman's figure and appearance first, so having thoughts like this was perfectly normal.
Thinking that, Aiden said politely, "I've heard a lot about you."
Kusanagi Aoi naturally knew he was just being courteous and smiled as she asked, "Could it be that Mr. Aiden had heard my na before?"
"Uh… no," Aiden froze for a mont and answered against his conscience. Then he thought, 'I can't exactly say I saw your na in a manga, can I?'
It seems like Kusanagi Aoi also appeared in so fan-made gas?
'Too long ago. Can't really rember.'
'But Miss Kusanagi Aoi, the way you asked that really kills the conversation.'
Kusanagi Aoi also realized she'd killed the conversation. After showing an apologetic expression, she walked over openly and sat down beside Aiden.
Slling the faint scent of smoke on Aiden and the lingering hint of alcohol, Kusanagi Aoi didn't show any discomfort. She then changed the topic. "Mr. Aiden, did you just finish drinking with friends?"
She could sll the alcohol, so it was basically just small talk.
"Yeah." Aiden nodded and replied with a single word.
"Then that's a sha. I was just thinking that since it's our first ti eting, I wanted to invite you for a drink," Kusanagi Aoi said regretfully.
"There will be plenty of chances in the future," Aiden said, turning his head to look at Kusanagi Aoi beside him. He then noticed that she was sitting sideways, propping her chin with her hand, staring straight at him, with… interest in her eyes.
Seeing that Aiden had noticed her gaze, Kusanagi Aoi didn't restrain herself at all. Instead, she said, "Mr. Aiden, you don't mind looking at you like this, do you?"
"Look however you want. It's not like I'll lose a piece of flesh," Aiden said casually.
Kusanagi Aoi imdiately said, "Then please look at like this too, Mr. Aiden."
'Uh…'
'So straightforward?'
'But I like it.'
Since she'd said that, Aiden didn't hold back either. He copied her posture, leaning against the bench's backrest, propping his chin with his hand, and looking at her.
However, after their eyes t, Kusanagi Aoi's face slowly began to turn red.
'His eyes are really nice.'
'He's even more handso in real life than on TV.'
'Even with the faint sll of smoke and alcohol on him, he sohow feels even more attractive.'
'What should I do? Am I falling for him at first sight?'
'Will he feel the sa about ? Oh no, today I only went out to race motorcycles. I didn't put on makeup, my hair isn't styled, and it's short… does he like short hair?'
Aiden, of course, had no idea what Kusanagi Aoi was thinking at that mont. He only noticed a trace of nervousness and unease flash across her face, which left him confused.
'Did my gaze scare her?'
'That can't be it!'
Just as he was wondering, Kusanagi Aoi suddenly leaned her upper body forward. The bench they were sitting on could only fit two people to begin with, so they were already sitting close. With her leaning forward like that, their foreheads almost collided.
To be honest, her sudden movent made Aiden's heart pound hard for a few beats, but he didn't move. He wanted to see what Kusanagi Aoi was going to do.
Then, the very next second… he knew. And he also knew why she'd been nervous and uneasy.
His face was suddenly cupped by the short-haired mature woman, and before he could react, a rosy pair of lips pressed against his. Kusanagi Aoi's initiative left Aiden stunned for quite a while.
'Damn.'
'This woman really is a female pervert.'
This was the first ti Aiden had ever t such a direct woman. In the past, things like this only happened after knowing each other for a long ti.
But her kissing skills were really terrible.
'So then, let teach you.'
With that thought, Aiden unceremoniously pressed down on the short-haired mature woman's shoulders. Just as he was about to pry open her tightly clenched teeth, Kusanagi Aoi suddenly shrank back.
But how could Aiden let her get away? If soone took advantage of him and he didn't take it back, wouldn't that be a huge loss?
So, under the short-haired woman's excited, nervous, stimulated, uneasy, and even slightly expectant gaze, Aiden instead cupped her face and leaned in to kiss her rosy lips.
"No… no, we… just… just t," Kusanagi Aoi stamred, seeming to forget that she'd been the one to make the first move.
And yet, even as she said that, she closed her eyes.
———
Ten minutes, twenty minutes, or maybe half an hour, anyway, the dazed Kusanagi Aoi had already lost track of how much ti had passed. When she finally ca back to her senses, she realized she was sitting sideways on Aiden's lap.
At that mont, Aiden spoke softly by her ear. "Miss Aoi, can you explain this? It's only our first ti eting, right?"
He really did want to know why Kusanagi Aoi had acted like this on their first eting.
The hot breath he exhaled made her ears burn red, and her whole body felt weak. Kusanagi Aoi took a few breaths before saying, "Just call Aoi… um, when I saw you on TV, I already…"
She couldn't bring herself to say the rest, even though she was normally a bold and outgoing mature woman.
"I see," Aiden said, sowhat surprised. 'It was really that simple? Was this self-conquest?'
At that point, Kusanagi Aoi continued, "And then I ran into you here again today. I think this must be fate between us. Maybe heaven knew I liked you, so it let et you."
'No wonder she'd been so proactive.'
Aiden thought to himself, then said, "If that's the case, we really do have quite a bit of fate between us. Then, Aoi, can I kiss you one more ti?"
The short-haired woman didn't say anything. She just tilted her head back and closed her eyes.
