This boy seemed to be different though. Despite having the chance to get in a good grope when he'd been fighting her, he had even taken a moment to even stare at her chest. Plus, he hadn't tried anything that she knew about, though he could have done something when she was unconscious. He didn't seem to have done that though, and she did find the idea of having actual cooked meals on some regular basis to be appealing.
Besides, she wasn't exactly sure that she could move all that well right then.
So, she decided that it'd be best if she stayed there, and waited to see what would happen. As it was, she didn't know exactly why he was doing what he was doing, or his name, for that matter. Time would allow her to gauge just how much of a threat he was, and get some actual nutrition into her system. When she'd been normal, she'd never known what it would be like to be homeless and hungry, but had always assumed that it would be bad. That was rather simple minded of her, as she'd really learned how... cold the world could be to someone unable to 'fit in'. At least now she could settle down, wait for him to finish cooking, and let him continue to think that she was sleeping.
"Ya know, ya don't haveta keep quiet for me," the boy commented as he stirred the contents of his stew pot. "It's kinda silly ta pretend."
"You knew that I was awake," Akane murmured, opening her eyes just enough to stare back at him.
"From the moment your breathin' changed. When ya make one sound for a long while, and then change ta another, it makes people notice."
"You seemed to be willing to let me rest before. Why not now?"
He looked up at her and grinned. "Didn't seem ta be fair ta leave ya hangin' like that."
"Oh, how nice. Bet you're just waiting for me to spill my guts."
"Actually... nah. Don't wanna clean up puke."
"Not that way!" she barked, letting her nostrils flare as she did so. "I meant that you were thinking that I'd tell you my life story!"
"Oh, I realized that."
"But, then why...."
"'Cause ya got a bit of a rise outta that. Looks like you're a bit more... alive now," the boy told her, his expression just a little pointed.
"Okay.... I'll give you that much."
"Good. Then maybe ya can give me a little more."
Akane's brow furrowed, and she snorted in disgust. "And just what would that be, hmmm?"
"Well... Your name, for one. I mean, ya reacted when I'd say 'hey you', but I kinda doubt that'd be good for the long haul."
"You want...."
"Your name. Yeah."
"Ummm.... It's... Akane."
"'Akane'. Interestin' name."
"Really?"
"Yup," he confirmed, and gave her a bit of a smirk. "It'd make it easier ta call ya back before ya go and try ta sneak off."
"You noticed that too."
"Uh-huh. Saw ya tensin' like ya were thinkin' of movin'. Problem is for someone of your size, it takes a bit of... room and effort ta turn. Kinda too bulky ta make tight twists...."
Glancing down at her bosom, she found herself admitting that her massive cleavage did tend to match his description, even though she understood that he was talking about the bulk of her entire body, while:
