"Well, then that makes us the same huh?" Leo said with a little laugh as he looked at her, and felt somewhat of like he understood her.

"I'd be welcome to share my bench if you'd like." Misuzu offered to him.

"It's okay... I wouldn't want you to have to do that. I can sleep anywhere, since I have to move locations every few days." He said easily as he just kept walking.

"No, I insist!" Misuzu said grabbing his arm and dragging him to the bench. "You are gonna stay where I can keep my eye on you and protect you."

"Protect... me?" Leo said confused, as he hadn't ever been told he would be protected before.

"Of course! You said people were trying to kill you, so I'll protect you from them. I'm a light sleeper anyway, so if they try to attack you in your sleep, I'll get them."

"But you don't have to do that, I can just run away like I always do... I don't like fighting that much." He said as he sat down on the bench, not understanding her reasoning at all.

Misuzu quickly slapped him across the face. "Stop being a coward! No wonder they're after you, you're nothing but a good-for-nothing coward! You need to learn to fight for yourself!"

"What the hell is your problem!" Leo yelled as he looked at her with angry eyes. "You don't slap someone when they don't want to fight..." He said as he started to get sad and got up. "I don't fight because that is what they want..." Leo said as he started to walk off.

Misuzu grabbed him and pushed him back onto the bench. "Look, I used to be the same as you, not fighting back. My father took advantage of that. He beat me until I bled and until my voice was so hoarse I could barely speak. When I finally got tired of it, I stood up for myself and accidentally killed the bastard! I'm not saying you should go get a gun and kill whoever's after you, but if you don't try to stand up for yourself, you'll just keep running and they'll keep hurting you and those you love." Misuzu began to tear up. "I should know... my father probably killed my mother before he started to beat on me."

Leo just grabbed the girl and held her tight as he didn't want to see her cry. "If I was to fight back, then the ones I do love would die... and it would be my fault. But don't worry about me, I've lived this way since I was little... I will manage." He said smiling even though she couldn't see it.

"Look, I don't care what they might do to me, but I know that if they ever meet me, then I will tell them exactly what they are."

"What are they then...?" Leo asked as he just let her cry on him.

"They're damn cowards too, they just make petty threats for someone who is weak enough as it is."

"Thanks, that makes me feel better..." Leo said almost insulted, but he had heard worse so it was okay.

"No problem." Misuzu said. "And don't worry, I don't really think you're weak, but it's just what the saying is."

"I understand, don't worry about it..." He said smiling, even though he hadn't smiled for a long time now.

"So, now what?" Leo asked as he smiled back at her.

"Not sure, but as long as you let me keep my eyes on you, I don't care."

"Should I show you the ones that want to kill me?" Leo said smiling, even though he didn't know why.

"I guess, if you won't go ballistic on them."

"I won't..." He said smiling as he took her hand and started walking towards the cafe' where the Mews worked.
