LoveLess
Chapter 4: 6 a.m.
Yukio, the youngest most talented exorcist, a proud demon exorcism teacher at the prestigious True Cross Academy, was currently facing the predicament of his life.
Blue-green eyes twitched in annoyance, bland fingernails dug on the fringes of the sliding doors with vengeance as if trying to leave some gauging marks on the smooth papery substance. The bespectacled brunette was clothed in his black overcoat exorcist uniform but it was a pretty eye-catching sight as the attire lacked of the lower essential part a.k.a pants. You could guess why...
The distressed teen's eyes scrutinized the long silent corridor, flicking back and forth warily.
After confirming the absence of any living creature in the vicinity, he took a reluctant step out of the safety of his brother's room, eyes and ears kept at their prime function to detect any slight changes.
The brunette carefully started along the long corridor in a brisk pace yet as silent as a mouse. One funny fact though, Yukio walked in a style awfully similar to that of a penguin, in a quest of carrying its egg under the thick safety of its abdomen fur.
It seemed as if he tried to keep both of his thighs glued to each other as much as possible.
Yukio grumbled silently, cursing the terrible ache he was currently experiencing at his rear, particularly around the area of his arse. He silently attempted to pinpoint the one responsible for his unreasonable pain, although this particular train of thought went into a fabulous dead-end not a second later.
Because of the simple fact that he was the one whom started all of this ordeal.
A hint of blush spreaded across the pale cheeks, lips, slightly swollen and bruised probably from all the attention it had received the night before, pursed in contemplation and embarrassment. He didn't know whether he should curse his too-considerate heart which couldn't bear to witness his brother in pain, or Rin's eagerness to ravish him senselessly with almost non-existent of self control.
The damn corridor seemed irritatingly endless, probably from the restriction he currently had with his walking. His mission was simple. Get to his room which was located at the far end of the floor near the stairs without being seen by anyone.
As he gathered all of his determination and will to execute his self-imposed mission, he failed to notice a shadow looming behind him, stretching over him from the east morning sun. By the time the exorcist took notice of the shadow, he was a second too late to react.
"Yo Yukio! Glad to see yer damn ass still in one piece!"
A hand flew towards him with power before connecting to his butt with a noisy slapping sound, resonating throughout the whole mansion in its morning quietness.
Yukio widened his eyes at the searing pain that seemed to tear through him, jolting him from the base of his spine to the tip of his hair. He screeched in a manner similar to a cat being stuck inside a pair of automatic sliding door, then tumbled ungracefully to the floor, face first, with his butt stuck upwards to the air.
Well, forget the mission, he was completely busted. One thing he had failed to notice was the probability of someone sneaking beyond his range of sight. And the simple mistake awarded him the blinding pain he was currently experiencing.
Now he found himself desperately wishing for the presence of a particular black-haired boy he was cursing just moments ago to magically come to the rescue, as his brain whirled quickly to work on the percentage of the possibility.
5.7246% at best… Considering Rin's nature of being incredibly heavy-sleeper.
Woe is him.
…
A shirtless body shifted under the cover, lightly mumbling something incoherent. A pair of blue eyes peeked open at the stream of warm sunlight slipping inside the dark room… before closing again.
Rin had that nice dream about meeting a blonde-haired chick and now she had wondrously asked him for a date in the MepphyLand.
Oh yes, Bliss is him.
…
"Oy", a foot tapped carelessly on his upright butt, "ya still alive Okumura? What's with the stupid reaction anyway?"
Yukio tensed visibly at the sting from the light contact as he quickly shied away from the poking limb. "Urgh, Shura..", one visible green eye glared below the rim of his tousled bangs.
Shura just lifted a brow at the strange antic of her friend. Only God knew the number of times she had executed that one particular prank, but never did the young teacher reacted in such a way that included him rocketing down to the floor.
And not to mention the unsightly position he was now in made the worried exquires behind her had their jaws hanging open with matching blushes. The exorcist coat was riding dangerously high, exposing a generous amount of the milky skin of his lewd parted thighs, his flushed face was contorted into something akin to pain, but it only served to enhance the suggestive aura around the kneeling teen. The exorcist coat clung tightly to his curvy form, making the already improper position seemed more dirty as every part of the fabric accentuated the line of his flesh. Fresh tears rested at the corner of his dazed half-lidded eyes, making his doe-like green orbs seemed to sparkle, and his plump lips were slightly parted open to suck in slow almost sensual, hot breaths.
Bon gulped, suddenly his throat felt so dry like he had swallowed an ample amount of sand. The usually composed Okumura-sensei, now looked like a guy who popped out from some homosexual BFs. He was not gay, yes, but Okumura-sensei looked so damn inviting!
Shima's jaws hang open. He had read and ogled over god-knows-how-many explicit magazines, so he should be immune to this kind of scene, but this... this... Is it just him or is there really some moe moe flowers floating around his sexy sensei now?
Shiemi blushed tomato red at seeing the scene. She may have no perverted thoughts about her childhood friend but she could easily say that the pose he had at the moment was in so many ways were inappropriate. For a man.
Konekomaru's and Izumo's mind: …
Shura crossed her arms and furrowed her brows, "Hey Yukio", her eyes ran from his eyes down to his sprawled body, "Are yer trying to seduce us or something? 'Cause I swear, some male students of yers drooled over ya like fucking dogs on a plate of meat pie.."
The exquires all blushed in shame (including Shiemi and Izumo despite gender's was a complete opposite)
Yukio blinked.
And blinked again.
The exorcist's green orbs widened comically.
His gears and self-consciousness of what he probably looked like in front of his students and fellow teacher hit him like a ton of bricks. He swiftly twirled himself and simultaneously pulled down his exorcist coat. Rising up slowly, he stumbled to find his balance, wincing at the occational jolts of pain should he bend his thighs in the wrong positions.
"Uh...", the brunette whirled his brain for something to say. Works brain! "Eh.. What a fine morning we have today don't you think?"
This was the worst scenario.
He had predicted that most of the occupants of the mansion would be still in their slumber from the strenuous night before, when they had tried to subdue Rin. He could care less about being stared at by the workers there for the reason he would be leaving the place any time soon, for good.
Now here he was, blushing profusely under all the pair of scrutinizing probing eyes of his students and fellow teacher.
"Ano Okumura-sensei", a timid voice from Konekomaru said, "Ho-how is Okumura-kun, uh I mean, Rin-kun? Has he recovered?"
Yukio straightened his posture, trying to look as composed as he normally was, and nodded slightly, "Yes, he is now asleep on his chamber"
An unhealthy silence hung around the gathering group, Yukio tried not to show his uneasiness and simultaneously tried to find a way to safely get to his room without arising mortifying inquiries. He was normally able to handle every situation but for the moment he wasn't sure how to smoothly acquire his retreat. Maybe if he-
"Are you hurt in anywhere sensei? Because I suppose..", Shima scanned his eyes over the slouched and disheveled form of his teacher with incredulous eyes. Their exorcist teacher also had very visible dark bags under his eyes which clearly indicated the lack of sleep. He almost looked like a ghost if not for the morning sun shining over his slouched figure "You look pretty... wrecked" If not completely…
The brunette gulped. He knew fully well that his student referred to the currently half-naked condition of his. He just prayed for whatever deity that heard his distressed call so the damn people in front wouldn't notice the other irritatingly visible signs, like for example, the crease of his exorcist coat which could easily indicate that there was no other piece of garment currently clothing him at the moment.
"Uum", this was too fucking early to kick his fucking brain to fucking work, "Nii- I mean Okumura-kun was quite... rough the night before. It was quite a feat to... maintain my... fullest performance as I was barely keeping up with him"
He mentally berated himself for all the unnecessary pauses his eloquent self wasn't normally made.
Well there was no lie in that answer though, although the indication of the meanings would probably differ greatly from the exquires minds. What he was worried about was the glint in Shura's eyes, it seemed that she had already suspected something... fishy.
He used all of his willpower to not squirm under her impending gaze as she dragged her accusing eyes incredibly slow over his body.
Yukio once again swallowed all of his uneasiness, "Ah so minna-san, I suppose i should excuse myself to my room to-
"YUKIOOOOOO!", a massive extremely loud scream penetrated the tense atmosphere, shattering it completely as all the startled standing party jumped in fright.
There, the perpetrator was running, no, more like flying towards them.
"Geh, Okumura!", Bon quickly fell to a defensive position, his hand jamming down to his pocket where his trusted sutra laid.
All of them mimicked the yellow-streaked haired teen doing, eyes warily trained on the approaching figure. But the half-demon promptly ignored them as he dived straight towards Yukio.
"Yukio!", the boy half wailed half screamed, tackling his brother as his hands secured around the exorcist's waist firmly, "Why didn't you tell me that you left!"
The brunette regarded the teen with confused gaze, arms hanging awkwardly on his sides, before his eyes narrowed slightly.
"Huh?", Yukio directed his piercing gaze to the oblivious sapphire eyes, which dared to blink at him innocently, the younger twin's expression morphed into the dark ever-famous scary calm façade but everyone in the vicinity could easily pinpoint the bubbling anger behind it. Well, maybe except for a certain blue-haired teen.
Yukio, as has been mentioned in the last chapter, was a patient man, yes, but apparently-
"Could you care to repeat what you've said nii-san?", he put on that creepy sharp quirk-up of his lips he called a smile, down to Rin, dark shadows still loomed on the upper part of his face.
Rin, ever oblivious, parroted his previous question.
Snap.
Ooops, the gathering crowd could magically hear it.
"Why did I leave? WHY DID I LEAVE? YOU-", Yukio grabbed on Rin's collars and tugged them harshly, "-IMMATURE UNSENSIBLE INSENSITIVE UNQUESTIONABLY PITIFUL EXCUSE OF A SO-CALLED BROTHER! YOU'VE SCREWED ME UP DOWN TO THIS.. THIS.. WOEFUL ABSURD STATE AND YOU DARED TO QUESTION MY MOMENTARY ABSENCE TO RECOVER MY SCATTERED PIECES OF SELF-DIGNITY?-", the angry, no, enraged teen shook his brother's by his collars while bellowing right into the very surface of his face, "-YOU'VE RIPPED MY DAMN WHOLE CLOTHES TO SHREDS AND I AM NOT ALLOWED TO PEACEFULLY AND SURREPTITIOUSLY RETRIEVE A NEW ONE FROM MY ROOM? HUH? HUH? NOW YOU GOT THE FUCKING REASON WHY I LEFT!"
The brunette finished with a huff, fiery eyes glimmered icy green, daring his brother to retaliate.
Now we all know that our composed young exorcist teacher wouldn't normally lose his temper over such a trivial but slightly provoking matter, but in a morning where he didn't get an ounce of sleep at the previous night plus his brother's innocent attitude despite the said damn sibling of his had banged him senselessly at the same previous night, can apparently let down his record of never having lost it.
Meanwhile, our poor Rin, who believed himself to be an innocent and fault-free teen, was beginning to feel sick from all of the yanking and bouncing. Just what he did wrong anyway? It's not his fault for being worried when his little brother just disappeared like that right? Right? Who knows if the reason of Yukio's disappearance was due to his beloved brother being abducted by youkai?
Konekomaru and Shima had each taken cover behind Bon and Shura, bodies dramatically shivering at every enraged word.
"Ripped clothes?", Shura asked, an eyebrow cocked curiously, but both brothers were too busy chastising each other, well, more like one-way curses from one furious sixteen-year-old teen.
"BAKA NII-SAN! AIR-HEAD! CORRUPTED-DEVIL! PERVERT!"
Now Rin finally found a chance to interrupt the line of the nearly interminable cursing, "Hey, I'm not a pervert! True you can call me a nut-head, scattered-brained or anything, to fuck I care, but you can't blame me for doing it to you! After all, it's not me who last night said, 'Nii-san, You are allowed to fu-
"OKUMURA RIN!", a harsh gust of wind suddenly blew on his face, swiftly knocked whatever word he was about to spout. The half-demon opened his eyes warily to find himself facing a doom-faced Yukio whose eyes were so narrowed and imaginary black clouds were ominously floating as his background. Rin sweatdropped.
"If you proceed to finish that sentence, I will personally tear down that abhorrent tongue of yours and have it barbequed and nailed on the very first entrance gate leading to True Cross Academy. Have I made myself clear?"
Rin, too intimidated to retaliate only managed to utter a, "H-Hai Yukio"
"And we are not to ever bring out this particular topic again in any possible ways"
"Bu-but you were the one who first talked about th-
"HAVE I MADE MYSELF CLEAR?"
"C-CRYSTAL CLEAR!"
Yukio loosen his grip momentarily as his face gradually soften down, leaving one exhausted teen staring down at his trembling brother. Rin gazed wide-eyed at the unreadable half-lidded green orbs and winced visibly when his twin lightly placed his hands on his shoulders. He held his breath as he was expecting another preaching, eyes squeezed shut in preparation, before suddenly finding a weight slumped on his body.
Rin snapped his eyes open in warning, and wrapped his arms around his unconscious brother in time before the brunette could slide and strike the floor, and swiftly supported the powerless body to his level.
"Okumura-sensei!", Bon exclaimed hurriedly as he moved to aid his teacher along with the other alarmed exorcists. But an arm of Shura stopped their advances.
"Relax", Shura said without glancing at the team of the worried exquires, choosing to instead observed the still form of her fellow exorcist as the young demon shifted his position in his arms to have better leverage, "Yer teach is only unconscious from exhaustion"
"Is Oku- Rin that tough to be able to reduce sensei into that state?", Izumo who was silent the whole time decided to verbally join the conversation.
Shura smirked, "Oh I have no fucking doubt that he is. And I know exactly how"
The gathering people looked at the smug-looking woman now as her smirk widened when she saw that Rin was warily looking at her.
She continued, "Although I prefer to hear it straight from the criminal himself"
All eyes immediately returned to Rin.
The said teenager blushed but said nothing as he hauled his brother's body across his arms and lifted the motionless body effortlessly. The sinewy strong muscle of his triceps was visible as he soundlessly proceed to the direction of his brother's room.
"Ooy! Who says yer can get to swerve yer way out of this ya damn brat!"
Rin didn't stop his walk but answered the question nonetheless, "I'm only carrying Yukio to his room to lie him down. Is that wrong? And besides Yukio has clearly said to not talk about that matter again in front of anyone"
Shura frowned, a little disappointed to be stripped off of the fun of humiliating both boys as much as she could, "Since when do yer actually listen to what yer brother says anyway?"
Rin slided open the shouji to his brother's room and stopped just before entering the chamber. The gathering crowd couldn't see what his expression was as half of his face was shrouded under his blue-black bangs. Just as they came to the conclusion that Rin wasn't going to answer, the teen lifted his bangs to gaze at them with strange glint visible on his sapphire eyes.
He lifted his lips and whispered in soft nearly inaudible voice, "Since he offered me his help willingly and prevented me from being consumed by my demon…"
"If I can help in any way, I will gladly do it."
The twin gazed down on his sleeping brother, "And not letting me drown in the feeling of fear alone…",
"Because I couldn't bear to see you in pain anymore nii-san" "I'll do anything to keep you away from being hurt
He let a small smile danced on his lips, serene sapphire orbs observed the tranquil looking face with mixed feelings. He felt like he could gaze at Yukio forever. Just like this.
"But on top of it all, since he utter those words…", Rin looked like he wanted to say something more but decided against it.
Shima ONCE AGAIN decided to break the mood by blurting a completely unintelligent response.
"Huh?"
Bon decided to rephrase the word when he saw that Shima wasn't going to say anything else, "Uh… Can you repeat Okumura? Because truth to be told, I didn't quite get it."
Rin sighed but decided to give in, "Alright I'll summarize it in three words", he made a dramatic pause before a smirk lifted the corner of his lips.
"Since. Last. Night~", Rin purred out in suggestive tone and an equally pair of seductive twinkling orbs. A wide naughty smirk was plastered on his face, baring his fangs to view in a way awfully similar like a demon would.
An elegant flip of a black tail later, the shouji was shut close.
Leaving stunned young teenagers rooted on their place with massive blushes and bulged eyes. Even Shura was slightly taken aback at the undirect shameless confession of her student.
"W-What's just happened?", Konekomaru voiced out breathlessly.
"D-Dunno", Shima answered before awkwardly turned on his heels, prompting the others to follow him, "L-Let's just go to the hot spring and take a dip 'kay?"
The remaining exquires just nodded wordlessly and tailed the pinkette. They deserved a nice hot bath to digest all of the events unfolded which was more than they could handle in a day. And it occurred at a mere 6 a.m. in the morning.
..
The words I cherish the most are... the words which I've never been given a chance to prove of in my whole life, never even hear the beggining of it, and never able to relinquish on the warm feeling it gives...
Until last night...
"I trust you..."
