#264 - AtsuYuu and possibilities
"Do you believe in alternate universes?"
Atsuko lifted an eyebrow as she took her eyes away from her book to look at the older girl. Oshima Yuko sat on the hospital bed and looked at the outdoor scenery. It would be a few more days until she was discharged and Yuko had a lot of time to think about things. A little too much, even. Realizing how serious Yuko was, Atsuko continued to look back at the pages of her book as she spent some time with the older girl.
"I probably don't think that's an option." Atsuko answered truthfully.
"Why so?" Yuko asked, curious of the girl's train of thoughts. "Don't you think that's kinda fun to think about? All the possible things we might be doing in other worlds!" she said enthusiastically, moving about not like someone who had a broken leg would be like.
"Hm? Like what?" Atsuko smirked teasingly, closing the book and now having her full attention to the older girl as she leaned on her seat.
Surprised by the question, Yuko put her fingers on her chin, thinking of all the possibilities. "Err... Like..." then as if a light bulb suddenly switched on near her head like one of those cartoons, she smiled. "We could be yankees! I could be the top of the school as you become a newcomer that would beat everyone in my ranks or something!"
Hearing this, Atsuko lets out an amused chuckle. "And you're the main character? You wish."
"Nah, it would probably be you. I'd be dead by the second season!"
Hearing that, Atsuko couldn't help but let out a forced smile.
"OR!" Yuko's face brightened up a bit more, surprising Atsuko by how sudden the older girl raised her voice. "I could be a werewolf! And you would be, like, a zombie!" Yuko pointed at Atsuko.
"Zombie...?" Atsuko was confused.
"Yeah! And we would fall in love with humans. Then we'd work together to fix our relationships!"
"Highly unlikely." Atsuko chuckled. "Though... I think I'd be more of a vampire, if you know what I mean." Atsuko smirked devilishly, sending chills down Yuko's spine.
"Mou, don't do that." Yuko chuckled. "Then if you're a vampire, I'd be a human. You're like, the vampire princess or something. One of the strongest Vampires in your family! And I would realize one day that my lover is a werewolf!"
"Why are you so fixated on werewolves?" Atsuko asked.
"I have no idea." Yuko shrugged it off. "Ah, how about this? We both would be soldiers, working together with an elite team, though the higher up would be such a... 'b' word to us." Atsuko chuckled hearing this part and commented "I know what 'bitch' means, Yuko." and Yuko smiled apologetically. "Well, might as well censor it. Anyways, we'd be in some real pain because the enemy is a LOT more in numbers and to retreat in a dangerous mission means that our Major would get demoted by our 'b'-y higher up Colonel. So you get separated from the group, disobeying orders to save your Major and my group would have to save you!"
"What's with that long and pretty much specific description?" Atsuko asked, surprised.
"I don't know. Or maybe we'd be wanted men, sailing the seven seas as we escape from the red coats! We'd travel everywhere to find some info that could clear our names! Though it's probably the Captain's fault in the first place, our loyalty knows no bounds and we'd follow her anywhere!"
"Free men, huh..." Atsuko closed her eyes, imagining such scenes. "Or... We'd be idols." Atsuko also shared her fantasies.
"Idols? Us? Pffttt! There's no way that would happen!" Yuko laughed.
"Who knows. Maybe we'd be in a group with many other girls. And us two, we'd be the two Top members."
"And I'd watch your back all the time as you lead us?"
"Or you could surpass me at one point of time."
"But then you'd surpass me yet again."
"Probably." Atsuko chuckled. "But I do know one thing."
"Hm?"
"No matter what world we're in, we'd be the best of friends! Zutto!" Atsuko smiled her best smile, making the older girl blush.
Yuko also smiled as well, not letting go of the younger girl's hand that she held from the start. "Yeah. The best of friends."
