Chapter 1: The Hot-Headed "Captain" (2/3)

  She stares at his hand. He groans out and places his face into his other palm, "I don't have time for this. I'll give you to the count of three; my time is precious, you know?"
  "One... two..." she glares at him, but snatches his hand anyway. His face contorts into a smile, "I should've told you this, but you'll be listening to everything I say for the first part. When I start to trust you more, then I'll let you do what you want."
  She huffs, but understands the consequences of the decision she's made, this is why she doesn't like taking chances, "Whatever. Let's just get this over with."
  "Get on," it takes her by surprise when he crouches down in front of her, "What are you waiting for? I'm offering to carry you. Get on."
  "You did say I have to do everything you tell me," she sighs out and wraps her arms around his neck, he grabs her legs and stands up.
  He stands up just as his friends reach them. One of them has long light blue, shaggy hair. He also has black sunken eyes, and he has stitched scars at his chin, mouth-line, and the high point of his cheeks. Thorn tattoos run along his shoulders, arms, and neck. The other one is about one meter taller than Kid. He is wearing a dark brown headdress like a cloak, covering his hair, but his face is visible. He has two triangles pointing toward his nose.
  "Heat, Wire, this is... someone. I don't actually know your name," Kid addresses the woman on his back, "I really should've thought about that before I put you on my back..."
  "(Y/n)," she smiles before brushing a (h/c) strand behind her ear, "That's my name. Don't worry. I wouldn't lie about it."
  "(Y/n), huh? Alright. This is Heat," he motions to the long shaggy haired man, then motions to the other one, "This is Wire. Guys, meet (Y/n). She'll be joining us."
  "Sweet! But, Captain, why?" Heat tilts his head to the side obviously confused, "You said we would-"
  Wire nudges Heat's side and shakes his head. Heat sighs and shakes his head, "Well, (Y/n), since Captain invited you, it's a pleasure meeting you!"
  Wire nods silently, then Kid speaks up, "Did you two have any luck in gathering supplies?"
  "Of course, Captain! We'd never disappoint you!" Heat smiles which causes (Y/n) to blink multiple times. This is strange...
  She lowers her voice and whispers right into Kid's ear, "Is he gay for you?"
  Kid shakes his head, "No, of course not. We've just been a group so long that we're like a family. And don't whisper into my ear, I'm still a man."
  "Right. That's true, we did have that discussion when I called you a little boy," she chuckles as he starts to walk ahead of the two other men.
  He lets go of her legs, if her arms weren't around his neck, she would've fallen onto her butt. His head jerks back because he wasn't expecting her to choke him. Her feet dangle about a few inches above the ground.
  "What was that for? Are you trying to kill me?!" she lets go and lands on her good foot. She folds her arms as he turns around.
  "Were you trying to strangle me? You could've at least warned me about how heavy you are," Kid growls rubbing his neck.
  "You never ask a girl for her weight! If I had known you were going to drop me, I would've told you I'm heavy! It's also called... wait for it... gravity. Shocker. I know," she glares back at him not wimping out.
  He groans out, before turning away, "Whatever. Heat, Wire, help her walk. I'm done carrying her."
  "You are so lucky I can't use my foot or it would be so far up your-" she feels herself being elevated and put over someone's shoulder, "Excuse me?!"
  "Sorry, (Y/n)," Wire speaks softly but he doesn't say anything else.
  Not even after they got outside of the mall, or what was left of it anyway. She huffed and stared as she was carried away from it, the building fading off into the distance.
  "Where are we even going?" (Y/n) finally breaks the silence, "I mean, I would like to know that at least."
  "We're going to a place called... my house. You see, my friend is all the way across the fucking country. I need to get him," Kid looks back and smirks at what he sees, "I said help her walk. Not carry her."
  Heat goes to say something, but Kid just shakes his head, "It's fine, I'm getting a great view, so it doesn't bother me at all."
  "Kid, I swear to god if you're talking about staring at my ass, I'm going kill you," she huffs trying to look at the red-head, but can't seem to twist her body to do so.
  "You wouldn't. I saved your life," Kid continues walking again, "Plus, you wouldn't be able to. These two would step in. Sorry, I'm not easily accessible like you."
  "Alright that's it, put me down," (Y/n) tries to push away, "This guy is going to get it. I'm going to kill him. He's going to die."
  "Oh, you're really feisty then," Kid licks his lips, "This should be fun."
