Call to Sai Yau

[bangledbracelet]

Bakumon eyed Mina warily as she settled in on her bed, clearing a nest for herself amid piles of books, papers, and pillows. She wasn't calling the redheaded human, was she? Suddenly the game he was playing was not nearly as interesting, and he paused it. (It wasn't going as well as he'd hoped, anyway; he needed more dexterous appendages. Why

Sai Yau blamed his fever for the sudden rise in heat that tinted his cheeks. His dark eyes fell over to Shakomon who simply glanced back with the goofiest expression on his face. For some reason, his digimon staring back and easedropping made him feel a little more akward. Embaressed even. The young man turned his gaze up to stare at the ceiling in an attempt to look unphazed by the call.

"A-- unn!" The sound of his own voice was rough and congested. He disliked speaking to pretty girls with such an ill-sounding tone. The voice on the other end was so much softer and gentle. Sai Yau really wished he'd been feeling a lot better... or at least sound better.

"Mina-cha--" Once agin, the chinese boy mentally smacked himself for another slip. He needed to keep his manners about him. Shakomon had become so used to tacking '-chan' after Mina's name (much like the Hoi brothers had done with Hikari) that Sai found himself doing the same. Not that Hikari was any more worthy of the suffix! It was... different somehow. If someone were to ask, the boy would probably flail and try to escape giving an answer. Maybe he felt as if he needed to earn it? Possibly. He'd be crossing some sort of line wouldn't he? Again, not that Hikari was special in that case-- just...

"--Mina, I wasn't expecting you to call."

"I was!" The clam digimon piped up before being pulled under the covers by his partner.

"I'm glad to hear from you though." He smiled as Shakomon slipped out to peer at the happiness on his partner's face.

"How are you? Are you very busy studying and working right now?"

"You weren't . . . ? Ah, I am sorry! Shakomon did not tell you . . . ?" But there was Shakomon there in the background -- whose pipings brought a mental laugh, even through her confusion. "I hope that I am not bothering you, then; I am sure you need your rest . . ."

A pause, then wry, as though she were smiling over it, "I try, but I am afraid that I do not concentrate as much as of late as I should. I have been a little distracted, I must admit . . ."

((On a sidenote, I'm completely fangirling Sai Yau at the moment. So cute! Otherwise, sorry for some of the delays; I've been working on a Midterm of Insanity.))
