Prompt: Hug me and tell me everything will be alright.
Looking at the male who still slept soundly on the bed, Totsuka crept to the door. As the door creaked openly loudly, Totsuka turned back to make sure that Mikoto was still asleep. Like he expected, Mikoto was still deep in his slumber.
Once the door to Mikoto's room closes, Totsuka let out a yawn and headed down to the bar. It was already late morning as Totsuka was faced with the brightly lit surroundings.
"Kusanagi-san! Good morning!"
"Morning!"
Seeing that Totsuka was headed towards the door, Izumo asked, "Are you coming back later?"
"Yup, I'm just going to get a change of clothes. See you later."
Totsuka chirped and off he went; the bell by the door jingling as it opened and closed. As Totsuka made his way home, he couldn't help himself but think about the worst case scenario that might dawn upon them. He would have tagged along but he knew better than to do that.
Back at the bar, something miraculously has happened.
Walking down the stairs, Mikoto ran his hand through his bedhead, appearing as if someone had woken him up at an ungodly hour, which didn't happen. Mikoto looked around the bar, noticing the absence of Totsuka and made himself comfortable on one of the bar stools.
Izumo moved around behind the bar, grabbing a cup, filling it with water and he set it in front of Mikoto.
"He went home to change," Answering Mikoto's unasked question, Izumo went back to busy himself with whatever things that Mikoto couldn't really care about. "He'll be back later."
"Hmm."
He leaned on his palm, mindlessly watching the same old things Izumo goes through while tending the bar. One by one, the members of HOMRA gathered. To say that they were excited for the raid later was an understatement, they were exhilarated.
As everyone gathered and were ready to go, Totsuka opened the door to the bar. On his face was the usual grin, nothing unusual. He moved to Anna's side as he watched the members beamed out the door with excitement.
Lightly, Mikoto's fist knocked onto Totsuka's head. Totsuka rubbed his head, soothing the nonexistent pain and looked up at Mikoto who wore the usual frown; however, it seemed so much less intimidating and much gentler than most other times.
"Don't worry so much."
And with that, Mikoto too, walked out of the bar to complete their mission. Totsuka tugged Anna to one of the stools and sat her down; his features gave nothing away about his worry inside.
"Tatara..."
"Yes?"
"They will be okay, right?"
"Mhmm, they will be!"
Silhouettes began getting bigger from across the street and Totsuka was the first to notice. Looking at Anna who was slurping out her drink, Totsuka leaned towards her and with a grin on his face, Totsuka said, "Anna, they're back."
Along with Anna, Totsuka opened the door of the bar and leaned against the door jamb, waiting for everyone to come in and listen to the story. Each member that came in through the door received a 'welcome back' from Totsuka until no one was left outside, Totsuka then leave his position and head for the couch.
Totsuka was sure that he hadn't see Mikoto coming through nor did he see his silhouette just now. Part of him was already at ease that everyone came back unharmed but the fact that Mikoto wasn't back yet had him slightly worried.
Still, Totsuka cast his worry aside, believing that Mikoto will be alright. The quiet bar from just now became noisy with the rowdy laughter and talks about the raid. Once the commotion died down a little, Totsuka moved to get a drink at the bar, it was then Totsuka asked about Mikoto.
"Where's the King?"
"He went to talk a walk around."
Nodding in response, Totsuka brought his drink back to the couch to watch the rest of them get into yet another playful bicker.
As the sky darkened into the night and the members all gone home except for Totsuka, Mikoto came in through the door, looking as tired as ever. It was impossible to notice his entrance as the bell jingled once again.
"King, you're back."
Grunting back a response at Totsuka who was helping out around the bar, Mikoto head straight up the stairs and to his room. A slightly curious look was exchanged between Izumo and Totsuka but nonetheless, neither of them talked about it.
Around the bar, Totsuka helped to clean up the mess whilst humming to a tune he had long forgotten about. When all was done, Totsuka looked up at the stairs, wondering if he should go up.
The answer came about quickly as Totsuka made his way up the stairs. Quietly and slowly to prevent waking Mikoto up, Totsuka turned the door knob and pushed the door open.
A fury of red flames encircles Mikoto who was sat up on his bed.
Upon seeing Totsuka walking towards him and touching his hands, Mikoto could feel his powers going under control again. With a gentle smile, Totsuka looked at Mikoto, his voice coming off softly.
"Nightmare?"
An exhausted sigh left Mikoto's lips as he moved to lie back on his bed, tugging Totsuka along with him. Chuckling at Mikoto's actions, Totsuka did nothing but go along with his King. Stroking Mikoto's arm tenderly, Mikoto heard the words that lulled him to sleep.
"Everything will be alright."
Even with those red strands of hair tickling his neck, waves of drowsiness still washed over him pretty easily and he soon fell into slumber with Mikoto.
He probably should bring over extra sets of clothes soon.
