" ...Sigh."
Great I'm just left here waiting for that idiot to show up. Why am I even waiting? He probably went to some bar and got drunk instead of showing up for work.
" I should leave..."
"H-Hisoka is that you...?" came a slightly shocked voice from the open office door.
The head of the younger blonde boy turned at the mention of his name from the familiar voice. Emerald eyes met with the dreamy amethyst orbs.
"..." Hisoka just stared at the dark haired older man until he spoke, than he turned to continue working.
"Hisoka what are you still doing here?" asked a confused Tsuzuki.
"I was waiting for you, baka." The empath stated without looking up. He obviously didn't want to talk for some reason. This made Tsuzuki curious.
"Waiting?" asked a curious Tsuzuki.
"Yes, waiting. You see my idiot of a partner left me to do all the work while he got drunk." Hisoka said in a very annoyed tone. He paused for a breath and a quick glare at his "idiot" partner.
"But 'soka-" Tsuzuki tried unsuccessfully, before getting cutt off and yelled at some more.
"Honestly you could at least learn how to tell time baka. Five hours! Can't you do anything right? Why the hell did you bother showing up five hours after everyone else went h-" Hisoka stopped when he realized the older shinigami was crying.
Hisoka just stared in shock not knowing what to do. This wasn't the first time he'd seen the older man cry but he felt lost and confused as to what to do. Before he'd at least known the afflictions that caused the older shinigamis pains, but not now. Now he was in the dark as to what had caused the usually happy go lucky man to revert to this pathetic state. Pain. That was the only feeling Hisoka could grasp from Tsuzukis mind. He wasn't letting his shields fall. That was a good sign, right? Usually when Tsuzuki went into these kinds of states his shields would drop completely causing Hisoka to feel everything Tsuzuki felt. Unintentionally of course. Wait... why was he working so hard to keep his shields up? Was there someting that he didn't want Hisoka to know? Was he upset with Hisoka for yelling at him?
"Tsuzuki-" Hisoka tried but was silenced by complete shock as Tsuzuki lunged forward at the sound of his name, grabbed Hisoka, and began to cry into his shirt.
Hisoka blushed. The action of Tsuzuki grabbing onto Hisokas shirt had ripped off some of the buttons leaving most of Tsuzukis face to burrow and cry into Hisokas bare chest. Hisoka could feel the warm tears on his skin. Realizing the situation he was in he blushed even more before mentally smacking himself and moving on to try and comfort Tsuzuki. He patted the older mans head to try and comfort him before moving on to questioning him.
"Tsuzuki. What's wrong? Did I upset you?" Hisoka tried first changing his patting motions to slow stroking motions.
Tsuzuki seemed more comfortable with these new motions but didn't give an answer. He just moved closer to Hisoka and continued to cry.
As Tsuzuki moved closer to him Hisoka realized that he hadn't been wrong and that Tsuzuki had been drinking. Tsuzuki wasn't drinking for the usual reasons either, something was seriously wrong...
After hours of trying to calm Tsuzuki down and get some information on what was wrong, Hisoka finally gave up. Tsuzuki had worn himself out from crying and had fallen asleep much to Hisokas dismay, on his lap. He was tempted to push the older shinigami awake but thought against it when he saw how much calmer he looked now that he was asleep. Not wanting to awaken the man Hisoka teleported them back to Tsuzuki's place.
