Leo hesitated before answering. “N-no.. I just feel that, whatever I do leads to nothing... I can’t even protect the damn Dojo and yet I expect myself to find out who killed my...!” Leo stopped himself, not aware of the fact that Jeiru was already well versed in that information.
He moved his own hand away, afraid of his own actions, seeing this situation before again and again, and afraid of her response if his fears do come true.

Jeiru knew exactly what he was talking about, so without delay she finished his sentence.
"Your mother..?"

“How did...” he said looking back towards her. Tears began to well in his eyes, as he got off the balcony’s guard and went to the wall that was behind them, placing his arm on it and hiding his face.
*Why... why can’t I control my emotions..?!* he thought to himself in frustration.

Jeiru quickly turned her head around and looked towards Leo's direction.
"Leo....listen. I understand completely. Losing someone so close to you..." She turns her entire body to relax her neck but still face Leo. "My father was never in my life, and my mom went missing. I can only assume the worst happened."
After saying that, she looks down, feeling her own heart sink in her chest. Before she goes any further she breathes to allow her thoughts to flow freely without getting too emotional.
"Master Jirai told me about you. Your mother was a doctor.....working for G-Corporation, correct?"

“Y-yeah... she was... she was all I had... and then those bastards took her away!” He said loudly, pounding his fist onto the wood, slightly breaking it.
“And I’m sorry to hear that.. I really am... but I can’t do anything about it, no matter what I do or try!” He yelled once again, feeling overwhelmed by his flood of emotions. Tears fell down his face rapidly, the stream uncontrollable.

Surprised by the sudden sobbing, Jeiru quickly rushes to his side and rubs his back.
"Hey....hey... it's okay. It's okay. Everything will be alright. Just relax. Let it all out it's okay."

“Jeiru..” He said quietly, after some time passed, his sobbing had stopped. And he looked back at Jeiru. There what he saw, was the most beautiful woman in the entire world. He felt, no, he wanted her for himself. He felt too alone, too scared, too weak..
He grabbed her by the arms suddenly and began to move closer to her. “I...” He began to say, as his eyes closed, his smooth pink lips moving closer her light, peach colored lips.
At the last second he realized what he was doing and let go immediately. His worst fear had come true. He ran, ran back inside to hide at least from Jeiru.

After the kiss, Jeiru was left completely speechless. Her mind was scrambling as she touched her lips.
"Wh...what....just happened?"
She sat back down on the rail to continue her thoughts. Scrambling just for the right words to even comprehend, she put her hands on her cheeks. Then it hit her. Multiple thoughts about Leo. How strong he is. How bold he is to stand against Gavin and Stein. How handsome he is. As these thoughts continued, she felt her cheeks redden.
Realizing that Leo's gone, she looks around.
"Leo! Leo wait!!"
She starts running around, trying to find the blonde German.

Leo sat in his old room with the lights completely off, taking his gloves and top off completely. He needed to be alone. He felt like he was the scum of the earth.
Leave. Leaving. Tomorrow he would leave for good, knowing that everything he does ends up doing nothing in the end.
—
“Yoo-hoo, he’s most likely in his old room. Just this time maybe be a bit careful.” Polli said from a distance to Jeiru. He pointed to the direction where his room was. “We’ll talk to him later, just let us know how it goes.” He said to her.

Jeiru looks in the direction Polli points to, then looks back at him and nods.
"Thank you! I will!" She quickly runs towards the direction.
-
Reaching her destination, Jeiru stops at Leo's door, staring at it for a good few seconds. She exhales and brings her hand up and knocks on the door.
"Leo...? It's Jeiru....can I come in?"

Leo sat there on his bed, looking up in surprise to hear Jeiru’s voice at his door. He hesitated, unsure of what to do with the choices in front of him. He decided to no longer run away, and confront his fears, no matter what Jeiru thought of him.
He stood up and and he walked towards the door, opening it slowly, but fully. There he stood, shirtless with only his light blue jeans and leather, dark brown boots.
Although his body itself was skinny and small, it was toned. Abs lined up his abdomen with his pectorals seeming to be majorly developed. His arms showed the muscle depth, and the feeling of power could be felt just by looking at them alone.
Though another thing lined his body.. scars. They weren’t necessarily brutal scars but they were there. Perhaps from when he use to go spelunking?
When he saw Jeiru, guilt welled up inside him. He felt the desire to kiss her once more, but now he was more calm, more deliberate in his action choices. “I’m sorry.” He said quietly, with his head down.

She looked at him, feeling sympathetic again. He must of gone through a lot to reach this point. Even though she sees how built he is, she can sense a broken man.
Jeiru, not really caring about the state of awkwardness this might show, she pulled him into a long, affectionate hug.
"It's okay. I get it now..."

Leo was in surprise. No girl had offered this kind of response to him. He was on the verge of tears again, but fought against his emotions.
He returned the long hug, feeling a comfort he hadn’t been able to feel for a long time. “Thank you.. Jeiru.” He said quietly again. He felt his hands move around her waist but he managed to restrain any other desire.

"You're welcome."
She continues to comfort him, running her hands up and down his back. Feeling the scars she senses more pain.
*"This boy has been through a lot...I hope I can do something to help him get through."* She thought to herself.
"If you need to get anything of your chest, I'm right here for you, Leo. I'm not leaving your side."

“I... don’t know what to say. I honestly don’t.” He said to her in response, still embracing her.
*Maybe... leaving here would be the worst decision in the end. I still need to protect the Academy if I’m able to, no matter what.* He thought to himself.
He had finally decided to let go, almost seeming to regret it. “So... what now?” He asked of her.
