Yato spent the next few days avoiding Hiyori. Only watching her from extreme distances. Even now, he sat on the roof of her school and waiting patiently for her day to end so he could catch a glimpse of her. He quickly found himself bored.

At first, he tried counting all the cracked tiles that lined the roof but that quickly got tiring. He then began to busy himself with twitter and other social media sites. He was tweeting every random thought that came into his head.

"Weathers stupid today. Looks like rain but no sign of it. MAKE UP YOUR MIND CLOUDS! #fuckyouclouds"

"I hope Hiyo will share her lunch with me today. Yato loves Tamagoyaki #yum #for5yenYatogamiwilleatwithyou"

Yato sighed. He could feel himself being annoying. He couldn't help himself. He was driving himself crazy with his own thoughts and apparently, social media was no remedy. He even tried Googling himself to see if anything came up and yet his search yielded no results. It didn't feel like today was going to be a good day. He started to think that being alone with his own thoughts was a bad idea.

He was asking himself the same questions over and over again without answers. Should he have stayed with her? Should he have rejected her so flippantly after being so utterly compliant? Should he have stopped it earlier? Should he have just kept going for her sake? It all felt so wrong and he couldn't figure out why. He just kept his distance. He couldn't even face Yukine as it would mean he would have to explain his bouts of melancholy.

Yato brought his finger to his lips, remembering the feeling of hers against them. He could already feel his face heating up and raised his hand up to cover his eyes. She was so forceful, needy and so full of want. Even now, Yato wonders what would have happened if he hadn't removed himself. Would he really have taken her without a second thought? "You granted wishes I didn't even know I had," her voice echoed in his mind. What did she mean by that? What wishes could he have possibly granted her? He was at a loss. He played the entire night again and again in his head and no answers came to him.

"You granted wishes I didn't even know I had." The voice wasn't an echo in his mind anymore, Yato turned around to see his father standing there and the voice of Fujisaki. It was enough to put Yato on full alert. He didn't have Yukine, so his only choice would have been to run. Yet, he didn't move.

"Didn't you like it when she touched you?" Fujisaki's voice spoke again. Yato wasn't used to this new voice of his father's.

"W-what?" Yato stuttered. Shit, he already knew before he asked.

"The power of suggestion is amazing." Yato visibly tensed. His father was smirking at this point and it only cause his anger to spiral more out of control. "It didn't take much coaxing to bend her to my will. She already had it in her, she just needed a little push" The cocky smile on his face coupled with the smug delivery was enough for Yato to have already thought of 50 different ways to kill Fujisaki; a first for Yato.

There were so many things the dark haired God wanted to scream and it took every ounce of self-control to not rip his own father's mortal heart out with his bare hands. However, with teeth clenched, Yato didn't utter a word.

"Have I made you angry?" Father said condescendingly. Even after all these centuries, he still treated Yato like a child.

Again, Yato said nothing and only stared at the ground. He couldn't think straight. All sorts of feelings were weighing now on his mind. Regret. Disappointment. Rage. Shame. Blood Lust. There were few things in this world that one could do to make Yato lose it and this was one of those times. Yet, Yato remained unmoved. He scolded himself mentally instead for falling for such an easy trap. Letting Hiyori get so close, it didn't give him time to think. It wasn't until after he had taken her lips that he realized something was amiss. The twinge at his heartstrings now though, reminded him that he still would have done it anyway.

"She doesn't love you and eventually she'll die, save yourself the heartache and just come back with me and your sister."

Both statements, to Yato, felt true. First off, Hiyori probably didn't love him, not like he did her anyway. He was always causing her trouble, so he never begrudged her for it but still, in the dark depths of his heart, he wished she did feel that sort of affection for him. Secondly, she was only mortal. Death was inevitable, no matter how many vows he made to protect her. Death comes for every human. Still, even if they didn't have a long future, he wanted to spend it with Hiyori until her very last day. That would be happiness for Yato.

"Y-Yato!" This time it wasn't Fujisaki's voice that snapped him out of his daze. He looked down below the school to see Hiyori alone, waving to him from the running track. Yato looked back to his father but he had already left. Typical. He then began walking out of sight from her but she called out to him again. "Yato, I'll share my Tamagoyaki with you!"

It was enough to stop Yato's movements and cause him to teleport to her. "Spinach Tamagoyaki?" He inquired.

"Yes, yes, Spinach." She confirmed as she opened her bento box and offered it to Yato. "You know, you SHOULD be focusing on granting my wish and less time stalking me from the roof" She was scolding him now and it felt too normal. They were back to the old routine of him stealing her food and her berating him for not granting her request to not be half-phantom anymore. This wasn't right. Was not even aware of what happened?

Hiyori offered him her chopsticks and he wasn't no time in eating all the Tamagoyaki himself. Al the while, still wondering if she had been made to forget.

"You're supposed to share," Hiyori whined.

"But you made it and it's so good." Yato replied, keeping up with the typical banter.

"I didn't make it, Sasaki-San did"

"You should try and make something. Think it is as an offering to your favourite, Go-"

"Maybe if there was a God here to offer anything to, I would"

"That hurts, I am a great God"

"Then turn me back into a normal human right now, Yato"

"Maybe if you called me Yato-Sama 10 times over, I'd consider it"

"CONSIDER that I want to be a normal human again."

"And what will you do once you become all human?" The question had just slipped out and Yato hadn't meant to ask it out loud.

"What do you mean? I'll go back to my life."

"What about Yukine?" It was an easy save but it wasn't the real question on his mind. All the feeling stirred up by his father hadn't simmered down at all, no matter how casual she was acting. "Will you keep tutoring him?"

"Of course I'm going to keep tutoring him" Hiyori answered. "Yato…What's this about?"
