Author's Note: I'd like to say thank you to everyone who reviewed the first chapter. I really appreciate all your comments. I'm also quite glad to know that there are lots of Kaze x Lisa fans here.

Anyway, here's my second ficlet. I hope you'll like it.

Warning:Slightly AU.

02.

He gulped nervously as he loosened the tie around his neck to give himself more freedom to breathe. Only five minutes had passed since he took the seat on the left side of the coffee table but it seemed to him that he had been there for ages. He made a quick glance towards his wristwatch and sighed. What was taking Lisa so long?

Pursing his lips together, Koujirou whistled as he allowed his eyes to wander around the room, trying to entertain himself while Lisa prepared for their date, and also to get his mind off the person who was seated right across him. He made an understated glance towards the man with the reddish-brown hair and inwardly winced upon seeing that he was still staring at him intently behind his broken pair of sunglasses.

Geez…I wonder what's with him…he mused as he removed his attention from him and instead, focused it on the 'stuffed toy' that was standing beside the other man's feet. A feeling of surprise and amusement both hit him upon noticing that, aside from wearing the same black cloak, the same broken sunglasses and possessing the same face marks, the toy (which to him, looked like a cat with a light bulb on his head) was giving him the same intense look the man had.

Strange for a guy like him to own such a thing,

Hoping to break the tension, Koujirou decided to have a little chat with his silent companion.

"Hello. My name is Minagawa Koujirou. How are you? "

But sadly, he received no response whatsoever. Yet despite of this, Koujirou continued his attempt to befriend the person before him.

"Umm…I'm a friend of Lisa's from work."

Still, he got nothing but silence.

"Are you her cousin?"

And silence.

"Older brother?

And more silence.

"You are not really planning to talk to me, are you?"

Sighing, Koujirou finally deemed it was best to give up. Sociability was simply not one of the other guy's strongest traits.

Leaning back against his chair, he turned his head to the direction of Lisa's room. "Come on, Lisa, hurry up," he mumbled softly. He just couldn't wait to get out of the house. For some reason, the unnamed guy before him was starting to give him the creeps.

As Koujirou faced him once more, he found out that he, indeed, had a reason to be afraid.

Nervously staring at the gun currently being pointed at him, Koujirou gulped as all the colors left his cheeks. What was this guy's problem?

"Umm…Hey,pal,c- could you put that thing away? Y-you might kill someone with it."

But the other man remained expressionless and unmoved. And for the first time, a word escaped his lips.

"Leave."

Though he had spoken using a calm tone, Koujirou strongly sensed he was more dangerous than he appeared to be; and because of this he could not help but be scared. The man really looked like he was going to shoot him.

"Leave. Now."

No, he was truly going to shoot him!

"B-but L-lisa…." Koujirou tried to reason. However, he eventually found out that it was a bad idea upon seeing the man's eyes narrow. The finger on the trigger slowly moved next.

That had been Koujirou's sign.

Regaining his ability to move, he clumsily raised himself off his seat. "A-all right…" he said nervously. Then, in a hurried pace, he headed towards door while the unnamed stranger continued to point his pistol at him.

As soon as Koujirou left and closed the door behind him, the 'stuffed toy' beside the stoic man moved and turned to him. "You know, Kaze, that was the fifth guy for the month. If you continue scaring her dates away, Lisa will probably never get a proper boyfriend."

The Demon Gun wielder simply remained silent as he put his weapon away. Moogle teasingly grinned at him.

"But that's the whole point, isn't it?"

Fin.
