Pitter
Patter

A/N: This is a giftficu, dedicated to ownerofattackcat. It was supposed to cheer her up because of the death of a family member, but it'll probably just make her depressed.
His human body had been weak.
After Kuwabara had quit the team, it had only been Yusuke, Kurama, and I: vital, competent men.
As the years went on, Yusuke and I were still in our prime, solely thanks to the demonic blood running through our veins.
Kurama, however, was slowing down. He retired soon after.
But it puzzled us. He was only middle aged. Living in the Ningenkai, Yusuke knew that it wasn't normal. At thirty one, he should have been just as good as the before.
He had cancer.
Kurama's luscious red locks fell out. His body was weakened. And it hurt me. It hurt me to see my vibrant, cheerful lover so feeble. So disheartened.
He died yesterday.
I wrapped myself in the blankets he used to wrap himself in, lying in the same bed he used to lie in. I listened to the rain pitter patter on the same roof he used to listen to pitter patter on. I cried on the same pillow he used to let tears flow on.
Stupid humans…
Why did they have to be so weak?
