When I growup

14~

The bane of my existence, yes bane.

By all the gods, celestial's, lore and everything that has a higher power! How can I end up in this situation? 

I blame it on the hog plums!

No wonder those damn things went extinct, I will not curse the mad queen anymore but praise her shamelessly for wiping out the entire thing!

Look at my situation because of hog plums!? Just look at me! 

Wah!

I am mad as hell, but can not blame anyone but myself. 

"Blu, I promise I will no longer force you. Just a hug and I will gift you the plums."

I pursed my lips and eyed the boy, what was he fed that he looks like that?

I don't understand!

Why can't I grow taller? I have only grown five inches, five! And this boy has grown a whopping twelve!

Is he not like a monster?

Ok, most of the students grew eight or ten inches but why am I only five inches taller in two years? 

At this rate, loli will never go away!

In fact, I seem to be temperamental as well, which is terrible!

'Sniff, sniff,'

"I don't want to hug you, each time I do it's like I am about to be suffocated in your huge arms and against your hard chest!" I could not help but snap in annoyance, while glaring at him, since when did an aloof goddess like me care about such trivial matters?

HOG PLUMS!

I wanted to see the source, you know, where the tree was located when suddenly, I was led to his home, introduced to his parents and led around his home.

Now, stupid me was excited for an entire year, before it registered that I had been led into a trap.

Hehe, how could a genius like me fall into an obvious trap?

I dunno, I really don't know. Something that reminded you of home while living in an entirely new place really makes your brain addle.

Sigh, I could not help but fall for it; hook, line and sinker.

'Wah!' Like really!?

My siblings thought I had a friend I was visiting and well, I kind of was but it was a guy.

Well, I had befriended Birdie, ah! Thinking about her...how can she change so drastically?

I thought she would be much more helpful instead of opinionated. Who wants an opinionated minion? No one right!

I know!

But this one always seemed to try and encourage me to be a bit more productive, why?

I am perfect as is, why should I put in more effort? Especially when I do not have any innate powers.

Anyway, before thinking about my minion further I must escape this bane.

"Blu, just one hug,"

I pursed my lips further glaring up at him with my bright blue eyes stubbornly, it's not like I have to lift my head slightly to gaze up at him but that's ok.

"Blu, I promise I will give you something else delicious if you give me a hug,"

My ears perked up and I stared at him a while longer before taking a few steps forward into his arms.

Sigh, this boy smelt so good, at sixteen he should smell a little bit, you know sweaty and stinky, but no he smelled so delicious I wanted to sink my teeth into him.

I sniffed him subtly, when he spoke somehow wanting to snuggle deeper into his arms.

Ahhhh!

This is so wrong! I should stop but my body--I can't resist.

His voice echoed in my ears but I could not even bother to be honest with myself.

"Was that so hard Blu?"

I mumbled, relaxing against him since he did not squeeze me this time but instead gently rubbed my back lulling me to sleep.

My eyes grew heavy and I went slack against him breathing slowly.

Am I...am I a tsundere?

I shivered subconsciously at such a bizarre thought.

(his pov)

The boy holding the small girl against him smiled, his chiselled features looked absolutely stunning. Even though he is sixteen his body looked slightly mature compared to the other students his age.

He knew all too well that it was thanks to this girl who owned him without knowing herself.

The fight among those who had tried to steal her away for themselves was arduous. 

He had wished to officially speak with her siblings to have permission but that seemed to be a failure. Specifically when they were always busy and the sister marrying not too long ago presently spending time with her newlywed husband.

The eldest brother had also become engaged to another girl last year finally and had scheduled the wedding for the next year.

He thought only of having the remaining brothers also paired off but they were constantly busy and women had it hard enough to send or even approach a certain distance.

The parents can not be found either so even attempting to ask permission to have their daughter had also been a failure.

Well, as long as she was specifically his nothing else mattered.

Gathering her in his arms he strode to the window seat filled with pillows and several blankets, with a mere thought he smoothed everything out and sat, half lying, half sitting placing the girl between his legs so she laid partially between his long legs and on his chest where his twin hearts laid.

Holding her close he then decided to pull up the monitor and view all the reports he had tossed aside.

She will sleep awhile and deeply anyway so it is best to check all of his work.

"Master,"

"Mm, we have located the internal issue and have already placed the suspect in the discipline area,"

"Mm," with a wave of his hand he shooed the subordinate returning to the report.

A smile touched his lips once more, his gaze falling on the girl before him before he looked away.

How long has it been and he has not grown tired? Since it is like this, he will never allow her to leave him.

In fact, if she did, he will simply follow.
