It was another one of those days for her. Another one of those annoying days that she spent huddled beneath the large blankets, with her feet sticking out the cocoon, and her face aflame. Her small hand reached out to grab the pillow that had been taunting her aching head for minutes now, but fell back onto the bed helplessly because she was just too tired...
...and sick.
The door to her shared apartment opened loudly, and slammed without as harshly. She could hear murmuring and the shuffling of shoes being carelessly tossed to the ground and soon angry and quick footsteps.
She closed her eyes, feeling another sharp pain, and then gently opened them when she saw her younger 12 year old sibling, leaning against the door frame of her room, with his arms folded. "Ayato..." She murmured softly, from under the sheets. "Back so soon?" She tried to tease him a little and ease up that glare on his face.
The dark haired boy simply scowled at her and allowed himself to sit by the edge of her bed. "Yeah, thanks to your dumbass." He replied, with no hint of respect or care. Touka forced a small smile on her face; she knew where he was going with this...
"I told you that befriending that human would bring you nothing but shitty trouble." He muttered, cracking his knuckles. Touka lifted her head a bit, and glanced at her brothers casual clothes. The black shirt was getting a bit torn-most likely due to all his fighting, and those jeans weren't doing his growth spurt any justice.
"Maybe it's time we went shopping again, Ayato." She said softly, laying her head back again.
"Maybe it's time you used your brain, shithead." Ayato snorted at her, and placed the plastic bag by the side of her head. Touka was about to correct him on how he addressed her, but he started to rummage into his bag. He pulled out a heating pad, some coffee beans- A really good brand, and another plastic bag. But, this one smelled oddly different than the rest-an inviting delicious smell.
…A smell that immediately caused her to jump out of bed.
"D...Did you hunt by yourself...?" She questioned him nervously. Ayato quirked an eyebrow and smirked a few seconds later after he noticed the worried expression on her face.
"Well, seeing that your sickness was caused by that shitty human," Ayato shifted her narrowed eyes to the wet bag on his lap, and then looked up to meet the shrunken purple eyes of his older sister. "I decided that it was only fair that we ate her, for causing so much trouble, right?" He said cocking his head to the side.
Touka scrunched her nose up, and fixed him up with a glare. "You're lying, you dipshit." She muttered dangerously.
Ayato returned the glare looking smug. "That I totally am." He replied, smirking widely. At that exact moment, Touka's phone rang, and she quickly grabbed it. Her body relaxed when she read the text that was from Yoriko, asking if she was OK and well.
Feeling tired and annoyed, Touka slapped her younger brother's arm, earning a surprise yelp from him. Ayato growled and snatched her phone out of her hands. "What the hell was that for?! I was just joking!" He yelled. Touka snatched her phone back and hit him over the head for safe measures.
"That was for lying and making me worry, you little shit!" She yelled, pushing him off the bed. Ayato huffed and stood up from the bed annoyed, and rubbing his head. Touka sighed and gently took the wet bag from him. "Thank you though."
In the end, the only thing we've got is each other... She smiled at him, something that she would do only for him.
Ayato turned away from her and took the coffee beans from the bed. He held the can of coffee beans in his right and dug his left into his jeans pocket. He rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly and left the room.
"Whatever, Aneki."
Violet eyes slowly opened to the darkness that surrounded them. Realizing that time had passed and that night had fell, Touka groaned and pushed herself up into a sitting position. She rubbed her eyes with the knuckles of her hand and pushed the covers off of her torso.
"Ayato?" She called. There was no response, and she groaned again, shifting to the end of the bed. "Ayato!" She called his name out louder. Again, there was only silence that answered her. Touka jumped off the bed and growled.
"Where the hell did that little spunky ear pierced snot nosed underage fuck even go-!" The older sibling immediately stopped her rant when she spotted a black mug with steam coming out of it on her desk. Curious, she walked over to the mug and sat on the edge of the desk. She embraced the breeze that was escaping in through the window, and picked up the mug that also had a note attached to it.
"Went out to hunt, get better, Shitty Aneki." She read. A tick mark appeared on her temple and she crumbled up the note into a ball. "Once that brat comes back, I'm gonna teach him a lesson or two about respect!" Touka declared, annoyance clearly written on her face.
She sighed and sipped the coffee calmly. She leaned back into the wall and watched the scenery of lights unfold before her.
"Ayato does make the best coffee." She said with a hum.
TBO- I'm TrashPROMPTSAREWELCOME!
