Hathor was definitely not expecting this hug, nor did she feel that she merited it. In fact, she sort of froze... but then started to relax a little. She then sat up to help his position and then buried her face into his shoulder. The tiniest of sobs escaped her but then she reined it back into control.
"I'm sorry... this is stupid of me... I suppose I'm just... scared." She murmered to him quietly as she put her arms around him.

Shizuma smiled and just held her close in comfort. He was her friend and he was going to help her though this...in anyway she wanted her too. As he sat there he listened to her...first her soft sob...and then her words as she hugged him. He just continued to hold her the way he had been as he said softly...
"It's alright, you can let it out if you want. Everyone is scared sometimes...no matter how much we hide it, everyone gets scared...it's how you react and work through it that helps determine the inner strength of someone." said Shizuma recalling the wise words of Grandmaster Kojiro.

Hathor wasn't quite at the ready to do such a thing, although she was almost there. She held him shakingly and her voice was unsteady, her movements were very much a cling to his body.
"W-Well..." For once she faltered over her words. "Look at... I..." She seemed too fogged in what she was trying to say to truly get it out, and so she just clung to him.
"I hear your perceptions get heightened when one is taken away... and I can definitely tell how that is." She said. Then she pulled her head back and facedher face in Shizuma's direction, trying to put on a watery smirk.
"And can you imagine what the sense of touch would be when you're..." She waved around the bed and smirked even more, raising her eyebrows a little past her blindfold. But then... she buried her head back in his shoulder, and tears started to freely soil the blindfold.

"Yeah...I'm sure I could..." said Shizuma giving a very subtle hint to his training with Irou as he tried to make light of her comment.
However, that all went out the window the minute she started to cry freely. He would have to change her blindfold but right now he would just let her cry as she needed to. Shizuma's hands stayed still his arms wrapping more tighter around her to show her as much comfort as he could. Her tears could be heard through out the room...it filled his ears more than any other sound would.
"It's okay...it will get better...I'm sure of it."

"If I had been stronger, it would've never happened. I could've resisted and I could've won against her... damn it..." She growled into his shoulder. Her grip on his shirt was very tight, as if she were both crying in fear and anger at the same time. "She came without warning... I think she did it for everyone, because I could hear the screaming of the other people too." She pulled back and she seemed to fumble with the knot in the back, almost irrationally.
"This damn thing has to come off..." She said in frustration. "I want to be able to see! This is riddiculous!" Hathor as she was vulnerable got angry with herself and with the situation, and when she got angry she didn't exactly think clearly. She hated not being in control... and she even hated hating, so this was... quite a predicament.
"This is..." She let the blindfold fall but yet her eyes still kept squeezed shut. "... stupid."

"Hathor...daijoubu...you will be able to see. Just for now...open your eyes and see as you did before...look at me...start there and we'll move further." said Shizuma as he looked at Hathor as he tilted her head to see at his eyes.
Shizuma decided to try something that did seem to work earlier. He would block some of the light with his body...and help her to see without the blindfold slowly but surely. He hoped that by focusing on his eyes...hers could start to focus and adjust to something other than the dark they had been trapped in...he wanted to help her see again.

She felt her chin be tilted up, and a much weaker woman would have blushed at this in her predicament. But she just went with it. She didn't know what would happen, but a wild part of her thought that Shizuma was going to... no he wouldn't. He wasn't that type of man. He wouldn't try to comfort kiss a woman that he wasn't in a relationship with.
She wondered why she had thought of it in the first place.
Then she tried to open her eyes, inching them open just a little, until she slowly got them half-way open. All she could see was his face, his violet eyes especially, but that was enough for her for now. She just stared into them, grateful to be able to see anything at all, her reflective pools a perfect mirror for Shizuma's own appearance with her ability to see in the dark.

Shizuma smiled and was happy to see her eyes again.
"See there you go, you can see me and I can see you. You still have pretty amber eyes just like I saw the first time I met you." said Shizuma not even realizing how cheesily romantic that may have sounded.
He simply just looked at Hathor for a while...giving her something to see...something to look at for now. He hoped that soon he'd be able to put out more light into this room but for now this would do. The dim amber light that illuminated this room in a stationary state of twilight.

She looked on at him, and then heard him speak. Needless to say she smirked a little and her eyes reflected that mocking glow that she had had when he first saw her naked in the pool of water in the caves. She went a little closer to him, giving the illusion that she just wanted to see him clearer, and then her hand went up to touch his face, as if she were just wanting to make sure it was there. She moved her fingers along his jawline and cheek, exploring the clean-shaven features and she stopped once she got to the back of his neck.
"You realize just how badly romantic that sounded, right?" Hathor said with her smirk, albeit it was weak in her state. She chuckled with her mouth closed and tried to open her eyes a little wider in order to see how his face would react to that.

Shizuma thought about it for a few moments...and then broke out with a soft chuckle of his own, which did nothing to keep the soft blush down on his face. Her touch was soft, and so inviting...it was feeling wonderful. As he sat there, he took in more of Hathor's features...features that were not hard at all to look at.
"Yes, I think it was...but I wasn't even thinking about that at the time. I'm just happy you can see."

She moved her thumb along his cheekbone and then she smiled a little more. Why not? It wasn't as if she hadn't done this before... and it wasn't as if they weren't close. She went closer to him and the scent of peach body spray, something that she applied everyday and apparently Farfarello had to, was lightly within the air. She was extremely close to him, her nose only a couple of inches away from his.
"This... is to say thank you." She said to him. With this statement, her lips covered his softly. She comfortably closed her eyes and though she still felt the blinding headache, she felt a sense of elation. Her heart actually jumped for the first time since her first relationship. Perhaps this kiss was to say more then thank you, but for now, Hathor communicated her gratitude in the best way that she knew how... through a firm and spiced kiss that sent her heart soaring.

"Wha?" was all that Shizuma could get out before her lips met his.
Her eyes closed but his eyes widened as he was experiencing his first kiss. To say the least it was something that damn near blew his mind. Someone like her giving him his first kiss...to thank him?! He didn't know what he exactly did to earn it...but he started to settle in as the initial shock came off of him.
It was at this moment that two of the Six Samurai appeared through his door. It was both Kamon and Yaichi as they came back from their last triumphant battle, not noticing what was going on between the people inside the room.
"Yo, Shiz! Guess what we did?! We totally just..." it was at that moment that Kamon's and Yaichi's eyes laid upon the scene before them. "Awwwwww damn son, ge---"
The rest was muffled thanks to Yaichi's hand over his mouth as she spoke in his ear.
"Do not ruin this moment for him!" in her most dangerous sounding voice.

Hathor's eyes inched open as she seperated herself from Shizuma's lips, although she did it slowly. She looked at his mind-blown face... because that was something she could definitely see. It was far too obvious. She felt his face, which was hot underneath her fingertips from his flushing, and she smiled.
"I suppose that maybe it's a bit more then gratitude... but really... you've seen me nude, are you truly complaining?" She said teasingly to him. Then she hugged him and her eyes had to close tightly once again, yet her breath still remained on the back and sensitive part of his neck.
"I think... I may be falling for you... how quaint." She said and then she chuckled a little and seperated away, keeping her eyes tightly shut.
"Thank you, Shizuma." She said to him, keeping herself blind.

It was then that Kamon went to a new level of struggling against Yaichi as she proceeded to drag him out of the room before Shizuma noticed them being there. Kamon's struggling though made that not as easy as it seemed. Shizuma however, had his eyes locked on Hathor...he took it all in quietly as he listened to her. Her breath sent a light shiver down his spine considering where the breath was touching.
"For whatever reason, you are welcome, Hathor." said Shizuma as his blush grew a bit more hearing that she might be falling for him.

She leaned back in bed, her eyes still closed and her fist started to relax itself as she rested on the now caseless pillow. She moved her hand around to try to find the blindfold and put it back over her eyes, but then she gave up on trying to find it and just made herself comfortable. She turned her head to the side and clasped her hands gently over her torso. She was pretty exhausted... and little did she know that this was convenient, considering Kamon and Yaichi wanted to deliver some news to Shizuma.
So... she started to drift off and fall asleep, not knowing if Shizuma had shared her feelings just now... but then again, she had gone through this before with other men... and if he did not share her feelings then so be it.
