The man closed the man behind him quietly but not quiet enough not to wake the person in the bed…
-As always you arrive far too late…Akito spat at Shigure as the latter walked into the room…Course I expected nothing else from you…
-I came didn't I? he said calmly watching her back as she lied at her bed not facing him…
-Too damned late though! she yelled turning to face him…you are never ever here when I need you to be…At least don't come at all so you wont have to calm me as you so kindly said to that damned snake today!
For a second a flash of something almost like regret flashed in Shigure's face… He smiled it off before Akito could notice it…
-Oh but you had Kureno, he said the name like it was the most filthy thing in the world, waiting for you no? and good old hatori to carry you home. Surely you wouldn't need me of all people… He didn't mention he and Ayame had hell of a fight after she left there was no need for her to know that…
She stayed silent…He expected that, even angry she'd just never admit it… It was obvious really… and just three words… I need you…She'd never do so he knew… not anytime soon… he was willing to wait…
- its your duty! Im your God!! you should, hell you must be at my side! she yelled and sprang up from her bed to look at him
-Now now you're just giving Ayame credit Akito… isn't that something like what he told you? Would you really be happy if I came to you "because its my duty"?
He was smiling down at her again… just because he knew how much it unnerved her…
-At least you'd be here! With me! Kureno doesn't give a fuck about me yet he is here while you are never!
She'd hit a soft spot right now she could see…Shigure had to look away to manage to keep his smile…
- You clearly aren't in the mood Akito… he said still looking away from her… Would you want me to call your Kureno here and take my leave?
- look at me when we talk…Akito hissed…
Shigure looked at her with an almost scary look and cold motionless eyes… Akito felt lost her power wavered…she sat at the bed looking at her feet…
- go away…if all you came to do is make me even worse than I already do go away… all you are doing is making me feel like I'm the pathetic weak and boy-ish girl your friend so kindly told me I am…go away please…please…
Akito was tired…tired and broken…Shigure leaned down and kissed her, waiting for her to shout at him throw something at him, her anger and herself be restored… but nothing happened…instead he felt her crying again an she kissed him back…
- Come on Aki…he murmured and lift her up cradling her curled in his arms as he would with a child…Hush. Hush… he sat down and rocked her back and forth as she curled up in his embrace crying… He started whispering random things and crooning words at her…
She fell asleep clutching his kimono tightly and he couldn't help but smiled at how dependant she was on him…it was a small step to change…but a step in the right direction… he led her down lying next to her as she wouldn't let go of his shirt…she wouldn't wake up for a long time so he could stay for a while and she wouldn't have to know a thing… "why not even him can realize? he asked the asleep Akito…I love you…and at love I'm the most unlucky of them all…
