Hiruma's POV
Chapter 52... Sobered Up
"We need to talk."
The dreaded words left his lips.
"Shit." I cursed.
"A-about what?" I urged him on. I need to hear this. If he's this serious, it must be important.
He glared into my eyes. In all seriousness, this is probably one of the scariest stares I have ever had pointed at me. It's like he is trying to carve me out of my psyche and expose all of my secrets...
"This was in my bag today." He took his eyes away and started ruffling through his bag.
He pulled out the black journal I had been given for my assignment.
"Wh-" I took it, hands shaking.
"Hiruma." he said my name with such confidence it sobered me up instantaneously.
"Explain to me what I mean to you, what our time together has meant to you. Depending on your explanation, "I'll decide if you failed." he said with that slight mimicking tone.
At least he wants to hear it, though. If he had just decided to run off without a word, I would have been short on what to do. If I play my cards right, I won't loose him, right?
"I..." I started shakily, body trembling.
"You are not allowed to lie to me right now, Hiruma." he glared at me, deeply hurt.
"I wasn't going to." I croaked inside. His trust in me has faltered. He needs me to build it back up.
I took a deep breath.
"You were a project I was assigned to."
