[ Falling isn't something that has happened to Kazuki in a while. After a year like this, he likes to think he's gotten used to being mostly blind. But pre-occupied, confused -- the whole mess of emotions welling up inside of him - has Kazuki less than attentive to his surroundings.
He likes to think he could have stopped himself from falling -- he still has his reflexes of course -- but Zero is fast. Much faster than him, and before he knows he's being steadied by Zero. Too late. Too slow.
He bites back the words in his mind: I could've caught myself just fine. He nods instead and grudgingly says... ]
Alright...
[ It isn't long before they reach the house's main entrance and are standing outside. It's bright - early morning to mid-day probably judging by how gentle the light is - and at least, Kazuki begins to make things out more clearly. He eases -- he didn't even know he'd tensed up -- and sighs in relief. When he turns to Zero, he makes out the silhouette of his face, some of his features... and unmistakable green eyes. ]

Thank you, Zero.
