She was scared, and he knew it. Pulling her into his arms, he softly and silently hugged her, letting the soft noise and feeling of his heartbeat calm her down. He wouldn’t let there be another incident, whether it be a murder, or a kidnapping. He had to solve this case.
The vibration of Yosuke’s heartbeat calmed her as she wrapped her arms around the other. She was afraid, for both him and herself.
“…I don’t want to lose you. I’m scared you’ll be next…”
Yosuke couldn’t stop blushing. She we holding tight to him, much to his relief. He was afraid that if he let go of her then he’d wake up and all of this would have never happened.
“I never thought you wouldn’t like me back but I thought maybe we were going too fast?”
Rebecca promptly buried her blush in his chest, still holding onto him and simply listening to his heartbeat. This still felt like it was a dream, but it was real, so very real that her heart skipped a beat.
“Th-Then we can go at o-our own pace. I-If we’re not ready t’do somethin’, we’ll tell e-each other.”
“Becca, i did mean it when i told you how i felt.” He’s blushing red, McCree’s remarks over IM about how his face resembled a tomato was completely accurate. Surprisingly, the whole time, he didn’t move from his position next to her. He silently thanked his leader for leaving to get food, since he felt it was much easier to have this talk when it was just the two of them
Thankfully, Rebecca had put her headset on in between their leader leaving and Yosuke speaking. As such, she was able to hear what the other said and hold onto him a little tighter.
“I-I did too, ‘Suke. I love you a lot a-and I’m really happy you love me back…”
He jumps, nearly knocking over a display (A valentine’s day related one, amusingly enough) and stumbled around before finally getting his balance back. “Um heey, Becca-chan, so…how much of that did you hear?” While deep down he already knew that she’d heard the whole thing, he was in denial about it.
“A-Ah! Are you okay?”
She already had her hands lifted to try to help, but she saw he could handle it himself. Then he asked the question and her face lit up in bright red.
“Valentine’s day is coming up huh? That reminds me, i should really ask Partner to teach me how to make chocolates for Becca-chan” Yosuke says to himself as he unpacks some boxes, completely ignorant to how she was standing like 5 feet away.
“U-Uh… ‘Suke?”
She quietly spoke up, probably startling him and breaking him out of his thoughts.
