Chapter 16
Bargain (4)
Finally finishing her food, she stripped her yucky clothes off and went into the pool of water, that Switch was still in.
"Hey! Get out!" Switch said in surprise. He was currently naked…And so…Was she!
"I"m dirty!"
"I made this for me, not you!" He wanted to hit himself for not making this pool further away.
"Shut up and let me get clean!"
Switch turned around, so not to be rude. Should he just get out? This girl literally knew he was there...Presley would always force things upon him like this as well. Talking nonstop had really gotten to Switch at first, but after some time Switch realized that he seemed starved for attention. Presley"s special reactions to the world outside his cave made Switch happily bring him along...After so much time, and remembering his past, he saw in Presley on what was meaningful to him. He liked that he was wanted, even if it was just for food…
Anonym"s voice interrupted his thoughts, "What kind of power is it that you have anyway?"
Switch looked over at Anonym, seeing her cleaning her legs happily in front of him. Turning back away, he replied, "It"s a long story."
Seeing Switch seem to close off to her and go quiet, she didn"t pressure him further. What she did know, was that with him being close to her, he would come in handy with what he can do. But what she didn’t know, was that Switch didn’t find that kind of conversation appropriate right now…
"Are you going to continue helping me or be on your way?"
Switch looked up at her surprised, hadn"t he said that he"d help her? Did she still not understand? Perhaps she might have trust issues?
"I told you I was going to help you." Was all he said.
Bargain! "Very well, I"ll let you stay with me! What was your name again?" Anonym said, smiling like a little angel.
Switch"s mouth twitched, she"ll...Let me stay with her...Wasn"t it me that was...?
Shaking his head in anger, he breathed in and out and then spoke again, "...My name is Switch...What will you need, to cultivate for another year?"
"Ah! No way! I want an interlude! Actually, I want an interlude interlude!"
Switch frowned. "An interlude interlude? What"s that?" Did she mean intermission?
Anonym smiled, looking far away, "Yeah!"
Switch wished for more of an explanation, but she looked like she was done talking, as she looked far away with a funny smile on her face...She looked like she was up to something mischievous!
"Very well. We"ll go do something and then you must return to your cultivation."
Looking at her and waiting for her reply, he found that she hadn"t heard any of his words, so, he flicked her on the forehead. "Oi!"
She put her small hands up to her forehead and frowned at him, "What was that for!"
"After this...Interlude interlude. You will return to cultivate."
She looked at his serious face and then rolled her eyes, "Fine." Then she whispered something about his seriousness.
Hearing her words, Switch shook his head. Of all the people that he found, that was like himself, it was only this tiny, little runt!
Eyeing her for the first time, while in the pool, he frowned again, she was still so young!
Suddenly, Anonym felt embarra.s.sed. She hadn"t felt this way in such a long time and she made an honest reaction of putting her hands over herself, "Hey! You pervert!"
Switch abruptly got up and out of the pool of water, at getting called a pervert, and walked off.
"Nice a.s.s!" Her yell caught him off guard and he stood there for a moment before continuing, without looking back.
Anonym took her time to exit the cave. She played with the water, by trying to make it float in the air, and made bubbles. Then she washed her hair and wondered what she was going to do with it. She had even been naked for some time before she had yelled out to Switch for new clothes.
Getting some in her hands seconds later, she laughed. How awesome was this new slave! Thinking of rising his rank to something higher, she wondered if she should call him an a.s.sistant instead…
Now that she knew he was something she wanted to keep, she should try to treat him better. What should she do? She had already given him a compliment about his a.s.s...Didn"t he like compliments?
As she was thinking about this for a brief time, it made Switch a little suspicious, as he had thought that she wanted to go and do something, but there she was, spending so much time in the cave...
When she finally came out, she really was a nice sight to see. He hadn"t really looked at her nice and clean before...Her hair had been nicely combed and half of it was put up into a nice curly bun. The clothes he had given her were that of a n.o.ble, young miss, and her body fit in most parts of it very well. The sleeves may have been a little bit too long and the dress touched the floor but it didn"t wreck her look at all. The colour of light yellow on her dress made her look sweeter and a tiny bit older. And then her eyes, they were so lively that it made him wonder if she"d run off like a child when they were to go out.
Seeing this, Switch was sure that this person must already remember their past life"s. Even though she gives the impression that she is immature and young, she knew how to look and do her hair to that of a rich, young lady. Her eyes also made him feel like she knew more than that of a ten-year-old.
Offering his arm to her, to act the gentleman, he wondered how he would talk about this conversation with her.
Anonym sighed, right, I"m the girl this time uh. She took his arm and walked by his side. They exited the mossy, green forest and went towards the Hydra Clan.
