Azzo looked at Melody. His head almost canted. His stomach still saying something was bad was going to happen. However, why did that sound so familiar. He was biting the inside of his bottom lip. He sipped the cocoa as he thought of a response.
There wasn't anything easy to say. There wasn't an easy answer. His eyes looked up towards the sky. "It'll be getting dark soonish. We should go before we run into another.... well you know."
He finished his cocoa. "It's good to see you again." He said. As he started to walk away, "Oh I'll try not to." He said as he walked towards the door, "Take care of yourself song bird. Keep that brother of yours in line when you can. I don't want to have to hit him with something to make him behave the next time I see him."
He flashed a small smile and a quick bow right before he headed back out into the brutal cold.

Late, yes it was getting late wasn't it? In her pocket her phone vibrated, a text from her father reminding her to be coming home soon so as to not worry her mother. A clear sign that yes, it was time for them to go separate ways once again. As she stood to shove her phone back into her pocket Azzo was all ready up and heading for the door.
"It was good to see you again as well~" was exactly what she wanted to say to him as he began to leave, but his calling her song bird had made her pause in step and the words die in her throat. And it was only when Ignacio was mentioned that she found she could breathe again for just a moment. She managed a smile and a wave, nodding her head.
"Yes, of course Azzo. I promise to keep my brother in line~" There was a hint at laughter, but only if one listened hard enough would they know that it was forced. Only when he left the store, the ringing of the bell the signal of his departure, did she realize she had forgotten to give him her number the smile that had once been on her pretty face fell into a frown as she pulled out her music player.
Removing her earmuffs she slipped the earbuds back into her ears before replacing the white fuzzy contraption that kept her ears warm. With the player turned on, the song turned back on to play, she pocketed it then grabbed her binder and the cocoa so that she too could head out into the cold so that she could return home.
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air? Can't live, can't breathe with no air. It's how I feel whenever you ain't there. It's no air, no air~
Listening to the chorus as she walked, she found that maybe the song fit more then she had previously thought with Azzo's departure. Her chest was tight, heart aching, and it made her wonder if maybe what she thought was a crush was something more that she couldn't understand. But that was impossible, to have feelings beyond a crush for a boy she was sure she hadn't met before the hospital.
Then again what was right in a world that had been turned so upside down by "organ traffic rings", monsters and superheroes in miniskirts? With a shake of her head she finished the cocoa, threw the cup away in the nearest trash can and did her damnedest to stop thinking of the boy she'd just spent a lovely afternoon with on her way to the bus stop. Not that it ever did any good. With a heavy sigh and a need to occupy her mind, the musician of a girl opened her mouth to give singing one last try.
"Got me out here in the water so deep~ Tell me how you gonna be without me... If you ain't here, I just can't breathe... It's no air, no air~"
