I decided to add another chapter :D

Note: "Chotto Matte" pretty much means 'wait up' for those of you who might not know ;)

Bonus Bunny Chapter – Yet another Continuation

Yako hurriedly removed as much duct tape from herself as possible. Gathering the oversized, pink bunny plushie, she flung the office door open and threw herself out into the hallway, stumbled down the stairs and finally made it out of the building and onto the street where Higuchi was a few steps away

"Chotto Matte, Yūya-san!"

She stood in the middle of the sidewalk, and he turned around to face her taking a few steps forwards.

"Ahh… thanks for the bunny, it really means a lot to me." Yako's cheeks flushed with the short thankyou and Higuchi allowed a toothy grin to spread across his face.

Taking yet another step closer, he tugged on a strand of her hair, "Perhaps you could express your thanks by joining me for a cup of coffee after work?'

Yako blushed hard, not as much at the suggestion, but at the hot breath that was tickling her face.

"Uh s-sure. I get off at 6.30" She stuttered slightly, eyes downcast and cheeks rosy.

"Well then, see you then!" he cheerfully replied, taking a step back winking he turned and got back on his way.

Meanwhile…. Neuro was pretty annoyed…

Fast Forward to 6.30!!

She stood waiting outside, not wanting to be in the office with Neuro. When she'd gone back inside to resume work, he had already returned, looking quite emotionless. Without questioning, she got straight to work and spent the next hour in awkward silence, anticipating some form of torture that never came, in fact the whole time, Neuro had not uttered a single word.

Yako spotted Higuchi walking towards the office, and ran forward to meet him, stopping just shy of hug. He grinned at her enthusiasm and took her hand.

"Come on, I know this great place." Walking side by side, he led her to a coffee bar some 10 minutes away.

They seated themselves in a booth situated in the corner of the small café, and Yako took the time to observe her surroundings while waiting for her order to arrive. She had assumed that it would be an Internet Café, considering Higuchi's interests, but it was just a normal little shop on the corner of the street.
So instead of initiating any meaningful conversation, they sat in companionable silence, enjoying the rich aroma that surrounded them and wafted up from their steaming cups. The hot liquid was dark and enticing with just the right amount of sugar to balance out bitterness of freshly ground beans. A caffeine boost was exactly what Yako needed after a tiring day of work and school, energizing her poor mind and allowing a good mood to settle in.

After half an hour of coffee and friendly small talk, it was time to go home. Upon making it back to her apartment, Yako wondered whether to ask Higuchi inside for a cup of coffee, before realizing that they'd just had coffee. Jiggling the key in the lock, she half opened her door and turned back to face him, becoming quite flustered when he stepped closer.

"T-thanks for today, I had a great time." Ahh… why was it that he always makes me stutter?

"Maybe we should do it again some other time?"

"Sure I'd like that." He moved in just a bit closer, and her breath quickened. She wasn't used to being in such close proximity with people and she could practically smell his shampoo.

Closing the distance between them Higuchi let their lips meet, weakening her knees. She gripped the sides of his open jacket, fearing that she would fall if there wasn't something there to support her. After a moment she responded to the stimulation and cautiously kissed back.

Higuchi broke the kiss but didn't move away.

"I'll pick you up after work tomorrow then." Prying her hands away from his jacket he turned away and walked down the hallway, leaving a dazed Yako in his wake.

AN: hehe, I actually worked on this very slowly, but I'm pretty happy with the end result. Please review and let me know what you thought about. I probably won't add anymore to this drabble series, since this just randomly came to me one night while I was getting ready for bed. I'll leave the status as complete.
