Ikari looked at the pinky finger of his childhood friend, before chuckling slightly at the gesture. [Color=deepskyblue]"You really are something else..."[/color] He muttered more to himself than her. [Color=deepskyblue]"It's a promise, then. If you ever have problems with her, tell me first thing"[/color] The blond said while interlacing his pinky finger with hers. After that, he looked were they were, narrowing his eyes at the image of the old place. Ikari didn't like it at all, and it was starting to bring some bad memories about his hard-lived childhood. Misaki proposed that they should ask a neighbour where Ri-chan house's was. Ikari himself was getting a little annoyed about the atmosphere around them, and wanted to get out of there as soon as possible. [Color=deepskyblue]"What neighbour, though? This nasty-ass place is even creepier than the last time I came here"[/color] The boy expressed his thoughts about the place aloud. [Color=deepskyblue]"Are you sure there are any people in here that we could ask?[/color] He said, eyeing the houses a little. The place had changed a lot since the last time, and he barely recognized Misaki's house, meaning that he was as lost as her. He wasn't one to came with very bright ideas, and the only reason he came along was to protect the girl above anything else. Besides, the blond wasn't as proposed to find his old house as his friend, and he was focusing more on her than other thing.
