She knew he didn't give the slightest bit about her. She was just a tool for him, something useful he needed from time to time. There was no way she was of any worth to him. He came one day, scaring the other girls but her being half a Yato was pushed forward. It wasn't his looks that made the other girls unwilling it was more his Yato-blood that scared them, also the rumors that were told. He was not gentle, never. She offered sake, food next and after he had ate to his heart's content, she had refrained from staring at his rude eating-habits out of fear to be receiving of his wrath, he had wanted to still his last urge. He said it at the very first time. He wasn't like other men, not pulled in by women and alcohol, not addicted to those things.

"I don't care if you die." He said and she had not said anything, because here it didn't matter. She would die, be it in the streets or because she was killed, it wasn't as if there was a chance for her to ever be free.

Whenever they came he was brought to her room, their ritual taking time as he drank, ate and then used her to his satisfaction.

"You may not be as stupid as the other men, but you still can't help it. I know when I die you will simply take another one, but… I do care for you."

"Then you are stupid." He smiled.

"I don't care. So I may be stupid." She said and let the kimono slide down as usual.

She saw him the next few times he was there, but he ignored her, she tried to ignore the pain, knowing it had no use, he was not only her customer. A customer, that he was and nothing more he should be, an important one but still a customer and nothing more. As she served other men he went to other women. It was but until the day she disappeared that he had seen her again, face to face.

Only a glance, only a smile. She did it because she knew there was no other chance, her life was forsaken, but it was not at its end.

"Kamui… you may say you don't care about your sister and you may say you aren't attached to women and alcohol… but in the end, you are still like the rest of us, you just haven't realized it until now…" She gave him a kiss on the cheeks before disappearing in the darkness of the tunnel.

"No… I don't care… you are just in my favour."

Mah... this is just something my mind came up with at some point after reading too much of nice-Kamui... so bleh, I don't know! This not really anything, still if you like it I'm happy :D

Maybe I'll inspire someone with this one day, ne? xD
