"Wake up!" Someone yelled in the room. My eyes opened immediatly when I heard the voice. I looked around, to my surpise didnt find Susumu.
The person ran away when he saw I woken, I got up quickly and looked around again.
"I wonder what's happening." I said then ran out of the room. When I was outside I saw Susumu in his shinobi suit and his fellow ninja.
The sky must have been crying cold tears right then cause it was snowing a light snow.
"Idril, we have to investigate something, you must stay here." Susumu looked at me, his long undone hair blowing with the snow.
"Okay, I guess Ill take a walk." I said.
"Dont stray to far, or Ill have to find you, and I hate that." Susumu said strictly.
I smirked then nodded, waving to him and his men as they jumped on a roof and disappeared.
"True shinobi, that he is." I said, starting to sound like my old friend. I looked around one last time then hopped on a roof and started to look around.
"This place is so beautiful when it's snowing."
"Your even more beautiful now that youve grown." A familier voice said. I turned around and saw Hijikata a few feet away.
"Thanks" I said.
"I know your not father and Im sorry I called you that yesterday."
"It's fine, I was wondering if you remembered or not." Hijikata smirked a little.
"Yeah..." I said then went over to him, I hugged him tightly.
"Ill still treat you as someone I care for." I said, my head leaning on his shoulder, his arms going abour me, also hugging.
"Same here, your like a lover to me, in my mind..." Hijikata looked up at the stars.
"Yes...but I think Ive fallen for another..." I said, letting go of him, his grip loosening slowly.
"With Yamazaki?" Hijikata asked, he looked to the side.
"...ye-" I was cut off by a kiss that was deepening. Closing my eyes I heard someone appear behind us.
Hijikata looked at the shocked Susumu and smirked. He wanted this to happen, but he also didnt want to hurt him.
"I..Idril!" Susumu said still shocked, his eyes widened.
Hearing his voice made me snap, I pushed Hijikata away and ran towards Susumu, I slipped in the process and fell down and off of the roof, landing on my feet, my ankel twisting.
"AHH! OW!" I yelled, feeling it snap a little.
"Idril! Are you okay?" Susumu yelled from the roof. He felt Hijikata's presence disappear, so he jumped off and landed by me.
"I think...but my ankel...I think it's broken." I looked up at him.
"Im..so, so sorry..." My eyes started to fill with unfallen tears.
"Dont worry about that now, we need to get you back to my room." Susumu said caringly.
"K.." I said, feeling him pick me up and dash around the Shinsengumi to his room.
When we got to his room, he set me on his bed and looked at me, his face was saddened from earlier but now a little angry too.
"How could you kiss my own master!" Susumu almost yelled, I could tell he wanted too.
"I...I dont know..." I said, sitting up on the bed, my ankel starting to hurt again.
"How could you not know! Your tounge was completely in his fucking mouth!" Susumu turned around, he couldnt look at me.
"I..." I turned my head to the side, I felt like dying right there.
As I was looking to the side Susumu walked up to me and crouched down infront of me, a kunai in his hand.
"You going to slice my throat cause I messed up?" I asked, turning my eyes to him.
Susumu took the kunai and sliced my upper cheek with it, the slice going deep. I felt blood go down my cheek but didnt wince once. He took the kunai again and sliced along my shoulder and down my arm, this one deeper. The slice on my shoulder the deepest, as it went down it softened to where it wasnt deep.
"Dont do that again...okay?" Susumu looked at me then licked the blood off of his kunai.
More blood went down my body as I tried to move my now sliced arm.
"Yes..." I felt that, if that happened again, he would slice my other arm.
"Good." Susumu said then took of his ninja suit top and put it to the side, then took off his headband and wrapped it around my arm.
"Im sorry for that..." Susumu said, his fishnet tanktop on.
He took some bandages from his ninja suit and wrapped my arm with them to stop the bleeding.
"It had to be done, I guess this just puts more scars on my body." I said, still not wincing from pain.
"This is how you got them?" By betraying people?" Susumu finished wrapping, then looked at me.
"Yes, the one's Ive betrayed always found me and sliced me up, Ive never felt pain since then." I said almost emotionaless.
"Oh, it is part of the ninja way after all..." Susumu said kissing my arm.
"Like I said before, it's alright...I hope that never happens again." I said leaning my forehead on his.
"Did he force you?" Susumu asked looking into my blue eyes.
"Somewhat, but it's also like a part of me wanted it to happen. I said, my hair mixing with his black hair.
"You loved him back then didnt you?" Susumu asked, closing his eyes slightly.
"Well he wasnt much older than me and still kinda isnt, but yea a little, I thought it went away when I ran away, but I guess some of me still does then some of me loves you too." I said looking at the ground. I felt Susumu's soft lips brush against mine in a quick kiss, I looked at him and smiled.
"I love you too, Id never do anything to hurt you." Susumu said licking his lips then pulled away from me and sat on the ground cause his legs were starting to hurt.
"You should rest, Ill keep watch." He said, looking the other way.
"Okay, thank you..." I said forgetting about all the pain shooting through my body when I moved my ankel back onto the bed. I moved so I was comfortable then looked at Susumu once more. He was sitting there for the taking, if my strength was back, he would be pinned, but for now, I must rest, I thought then closed my eyes, falling into a sleep.
"Get some nice sleep, Idril, tomarrow is going to be hell for you, we have to get that ankel fixed." Susumu said, his bangs in his eyes, since he didnt have his headband his hair wasnt sticking up like normal, it was long and down.
