Is That A Bird?...

Astrid was taken back by my request.

Not because of how important it was, like she was expecting it to be. But because of my unexpected request, that didn't make any sense, no matter how she looked at it.

She was probably expecting me to say something that would strengthen the bond between us, but didn't expect that it would be something so dumb as getting frightened by something in my pants as if it were the monster underneath the bed.

"Luca, what are you on about? Did I hit your head a little too hard for you to be having such crazy thoughts?" She looked at me like a madman.

"For you to actually think that I will actually be frightened by something in your pants, have you actually gone mad?"

"You don't understand!" I pleaded.

"The thing in my pants isn't as simple as you think it is, nor am I making up how scary it can be to you. I actually want to tell you what I'm talking about. But I'm scared that you'll run away from this room, the moment you hear about it."

"That's how terrifying it is for girls like you!" 

I greatly emphasized the danger hidden underneath and wanted her to mentally prepare for it. But she didn't seem to hear me in the slightest and actually looked at me with eyes filled with concern, as if she were looking at a pityful creature.

"Fine! If you don't want to listen to my words, then think of what I said as a crazy man's rambling! But don't blame me for traumatising you when you see what's hidden underneath my pants, as I've already warned you for your sake." I said in vexation, seeing that she was looking at me with a look of concern when I was sincerely warning her for her sake.

"Of course, Luca. Just for your sake, I'll try not to get scared of the ghost, monster, or whatever wild beast you've hidden underneath your pants." She joked with a smile on her face as she started to unbutton my pants and pull them off, obviously making fun of my intentions to save her, which made me even more irritated.

"But Luca, if I do faint like you said, then I hope I can carry me to the nurse's room and lay me to rest."

"And if the nurse asks why I've fainted, I hope you simply explain the horrifying thing I saw in your pants that made me faint. And not show it to her, no matter how much she asks, as I'm afraid she too will faint after seeing that terrifying object, and there will be no one to take care of me....Pftt!..." She couldn't help but chuckle at her own joke, seeing how absurd it was, even though it was totally possible of happening.

"Laugh! Laugh all you want now!"

"But let's see who's laughing and who's crying after you pull down my pants!" I said with a look of triumph, as if I could already see her expression when she saw what I'm talking about.

"Let's see then. Let's see when I pull off both your pants and underwear at the same time and witness with my eyes this horrifying thing you're talking about." 

She said with a mocking smile on her face as she slid her thumb into my underwear band, held onto my pants, and pulled them down to see for herself what I was talking about.

Whoosh~

Just as she pulled down my underwear and clothes a few inches down my leg, I heard her say

"I mean, how bad could it be? It's not like you're carrying an actual weapon or wild animal that could kill someone at sight in there. Like, how is that even possi-....."

Swish~

And just as she was about to finish her sentence, she felt a gust of wind fly above her face from above and heard the sound of something big flying upwards right in front of her.

She stopped talking, not because of the wind she felt on her face or because of the sound that went past her ear. But because whatever moved across her face actually came out of my underwear and made her startled, since she probably thought that I was actually hanging some kind of animal that could fly like a bird in my pants.

And it was actually a pretty big bird, unlike a simple sparrow or canary, and resembled a hawk from the faint shadow she saw when it escaped my pants and flied around her face.

Thud~

When she wanted to look up to see the bird that she thought flew out of my pants and ask me why I kept such a big bird in my pants, she suddenly felt something land right on top of her head.

It was quite bulky and weighed a decent amount, enough to make a sound as if a pouch full of meat was thrown to the ground and slightly shake her head on impact.

Through 'Resonance' I found out that she first thought it was the bird that escaped from my pants that landed on top of her head, seeing the wide area as a perfect place for landing, and freaked out a little, afraid that it would scratch or poke her head.

But she quickly realised that the feeling on top of her head didn't seem to resemble that of what a bird would feel on top of one's head. And it was actually something else.

Especially since the object on top of her wasn't very wide like a bird would be and was actually very long in structure, which she could feel as the object was sitting right on top of her hair line that parted her hair into two parts and emitted some heat on that line in the center of her head.

The hard object that seemed cylindrical from the feeling on her head sat perfectly on her hairline, from the top of her forehead all the way to the back of her head, where it still continued off her head. She could even feel that the object didn't end where her hairline ended, and a part that wasn't on her head was hanging at the back of her, which meant that it was quite long. Or at least longer than the diameter of her head, and it was quite warm and hard to touch, which she probably found out from the slight pain she felt when the object dropped on her head like a sledgehammer.

Gasp~!

Just as she was wondering what it was, when it wasn't a bird like she expected it to be, she saw a dark shadow right on top of her eyes that extended from the center of my waist all the way to the top of her head, right where her hairline was, which made her eyes quiver in terror and suck in a deep breath of hair in absolute shock that frightened her to the core.
