Shi'Enz didn't understand why Hound would want her to hold him when she just embarrassed herself and could also stain him further.
She started to fidget. "I…I should…"
His lips twitched. "Yes, Shi'Enz grab onto my arm," he said.
"That shall stain you and I do not intend to-"
He cut her off guiding her to his arms. "Nothing from you can ever be a stain, it is only a mark," he said as their arms were now kinked.
She looked up at his face. "A mark?" her question.
"I shall spare you the details" he teased.
With a smile, she asked. "Where are we going?" as they had started to move.
"Somewhere special" he whispered.
Shi'Enz smiled as she tightened her hold on his arm.
They reached the flower garden of the mansion where Conan sighed before starting. "The seedlings for this garden were given to me by someone special"
Special? Shi'Enz thought. Who was that?
