"I'm so sorry dad I'll get them cleaned for you back at my place." Apologetic, Katsumi sighs sadly at her father brow furrowed, she didn't mean for all this mess to happen, she didn't mean for any of this to happen. Honestly…she didn't think any of this would happen. She had hoped Mirko would keep an eye on Hawks at the least…

"It's alright sweetie let's just focus on your friend yeah?" Meekly, Masaru smiles softly at his little girl.

"Yeah…" Sighing, she closes her eyes furrowing her fatigued facial features.

"A ? You hhave a csr!?" Cross, Hawks scowls at the vehicle almost offended by it making Katsumi furrow her brow at him.

"Not all of us have wings Hawk." Snippily, Katsumi remarks brow furrowed at him.

"But you csn do that cute biom vion thing." Grumbling, he whines reaching out to her as her father holds him.

"Boom boom thing?" She furrows her brow befuddled.

"Yoy kno w with yout -" Hawks begins but falters from the sudden spurt of vomit, Katsumi assumed as she rushes over to his side steadying him. He steadied himself, bowing his head, nestling it into the crook of her head once more, seek solace in it.

"Hold it buddy how about you show us in the car yeah." Softy, she smiles down at the whining Hawks who shakes his head.

"O can fky ud homw." He offers flaying his wings all over the place.

"No! You are going in there now." Sternly, she snaps at him ceasing his attempt.

"I don'T wsnba." Whining, he cranes his neck backwards.

"Hawks!" Harshly, she snaps at him.

"…Wyne. Whoaa hi aomeonE's gwttinh to.c. hy whhu sre nt you lije this aT wotk?" Suggestively, he wiggles his brow. She slides him into the backseat, strapping the seatbelt onto him, earning a small purr from him, wrapping his arms around her neck purring pleased almost.

"Just shut up. Thanks for driving again dad sorry you have to deal with this." Tiredly, she sighs prying him off her. He whines reaching out to her like a new-born babe before slamming the door shut in his face then heads to the shotgun seat.

"It's all right." Gently, Masaru smiles as he turns the engine starting the car, the reading soon filling the still silence of the air along with the small meek moans from the back.

"Katsuu…." Whining, Hawks calls out, draped over both backseats making Katsumi's raw red twitch trying to enjoy the light buzz of the radio but of course…

"…" Silently, she crosses her arms over her chest not noting Hawke's hurt features forming a pout.

"Kaaaatsu…" Childishly, Hawk reaches his arms out to her.

"…" Amused, Masaru watches the stoic silent Katsumi a small smirk of amusement upon his lips. He couldn't help but think back to when Katsumi was in a mood sure she'd snap but then she's give everyone the silent treatment, pouting until she forgot what they were arguing about.

"Kaa-" Hawks continues in a slurring sing song tone, a fair few feathers of ruby red teasingly touching her making her raw reds twitch trying to fight back against the tickling touch of the flimsy feathers only making Masaru's smile soften at the endearing sight.

"What?!" Sharply, she snaps turning to furrow her brow at him, her roaring raging red glaring daggers into a pair of dazed bored yellow simply staring at her as after a fair minute or so of simply staring at one another…

"Wsve yweu." Softly, he smiles stretching his arms out to her trying to hug her, lunging at her only making him grunt, whining when the seatbelt pulls him back making him grimace, struggling against the confines.

"What is wrong with you?" Red faced, she demands from him.

"I wuune cwddsle." Childishly, he whines drunkenly swaying struggling against the vice of the seat belt concerning Katsumi slightly.

"Yes well I wanted to spend time with my family. Guess neither of us are getting what we want." Huffing, she grumbles glaring to the side.

"…" Pained, he grimaces from her words wincing, slumping slouching against the seat returning to it dejected.

"…Sorry" Shyly, he whispers bowing his head hurt only making her wince when hearing his words.

"…" Pained, Katsumi grimaces at the sharp sting of guilt, her raw reds meet her father's soften browns simply nodding his head, making her sigh, groaning. She cranes her neck back as she unfastens her seat, making her way to the back of the car.

"I'm here Hawks, it's alright." Affectionately, she whispers to Hawks, wrapping her arm around him, feeling his wings cramped coil around her.

"I'm sorry for euining your dau. I ddidn.'t to qe h. add a driink I difn't nran yo gey tjis drunk., i didn't wa. nr to vother tpu. I sidn't th. ink yiu's come to see ,e I hust wanred to...I'M Sorry, I'm so dotey..." Hurt, Hawks whispers, his voice cracking breaking briefly before bowing his head, blinking back the tears threatening to freely flow sniffling.

"Hawks…hey, hey, it's okay, it's okay. It's alright now it is." Tentatively, she places her hand on his cheek wiping away the stray tear as he leans into her touch, bringing her into his lap, holding her.

"I wrt two…I...You shossvbuwldn't waeedgste yrtrour tiewme onw mwe." He whispers, his grip tightening around her.

"Hey I chose to do this just as I chose to help you now. You're a good hero Hawks, you have the heart of one, you're smart, fast and you bring the people hope that's so much more than most. You matter Hawks." Firmly, she reminds him, his glassy gold gazing into her teary ruby red.

Mutely, he stares at her, the tears descending down silently.

"I'm not going anywhere not now, not ever." Firmly, she vows to him, hugging him making his eyes widen when feeling the tender touch before leaning into it, melting, easing himself into it.

"I doWDn't fweessl swwo gwweood." Drowsily, Hawks groans nestled in the crook of her neck once more.

"Then why don't you sleep? I'll wake you up when we get to my place." She promises him.

"Yew pwemise?" Slurring, he grumbles leaning into her tender touch, his head on her chest, looking relieved almost as he clings to her.

"I promise." Gently, Katsumi whispers staring down at the sleeping figure, a small smile crossing her lips when watching Hawks slowly close his eyes, nestled, settling on her lap, curling on her. His arms wrap around her, both of them oblivious to the meek Masaru's small smile when briefly seeing in the rear mirror of the car, a familiar blonde and brunette before him, a figment of the past proudly presenting itself before him.

"I'll go brew some coffee." Calmly, Masura tells Katsumi as they enter the room. She nods watching him go get some coffee while she handles Hawks, gently guiding him to the bathroom.

"Thanks…come on you. I swear you get drunk on purpose." Softly, she smiles at her father before heading him to the bathroom, where she places Hawk's down on the toilet seat.

"I wouldn't say that… " Tiredly, Hawks sighs, leaning against the cool clean toilet, brow furrowing as she removes his jacket placing it to the side with his aid.

"Right…wait…is that…how the fuck did you get sick in your hair?" Perplexed, Katsumi ponders as he bows his head revealing said sick.

"You're so pwetty." Slurring, he leans into her as she sighs.

"Compliments won't get you anywhere." Sternly, she warns him as she makes her way to the shower, getting out the showerhead, the spare one strapped to the side.

"You ever thought about having kids?" Curious, Hawks asks as he looks up at the ceiling, brow furrowed.

"No." Katsumi answers as she with his help takes his shirt off.

"Someone's eager." Coyly, he smirks as she turns the showerhead on making Hawks hiss slightly from the water descending down upon him.

"Someone wants you to get to bed." She passes him the showerhead as she reaches out to the shampoo.

"I don't deserve you." He whispers bowing his head making her features falter from his words.

"Just shush and let me get that sick out." Sighing, she combs her fingertips through his hair making him hum happily leaning into the teasing touch.

"Like what you see?" Suggestively, he smirks as foam forms around his locks.

"You're a model." Lazily, she shrugs.

"So you admit I'm handsome." Hawks smirks smugly, a glint gleaming in his hues.

"In terms of society's expectation you would be considered attractive." Aloofly, she confirms.

"But do you?"

""Oh come on. We'd have little explosion babies…" Snickering, Hawks chuckles at the thought.

"Just going to stop you there." Tiredly, she sighs furrowing her brow at him.

"I learned some very valuable lessons from this foundation of." Hawks proclaims proudly smirking coyly.

"You mean fountain of alcohol either way I'm guessing they are all horrible distortions on the lessons you actually should've taken away." Annoyed, Katsumi exclaims as she

"Death isn't real, and I'm basically God." Giddily, Hawks smirks.

"Oh really now and what would that make me?" Fascinated, Katsumi decides to entertain him, a small smirk of amusement upon her lips.

"You'd be…an angel." Softly, he whispers leaning into her touch as she tousles his hair.

"I doubt it." She scoffs shaking her head at the thought.

"Wait did god have a lover?" Slurring, Hawks groans.

"Um Hawks…" Worried, Katsumi furrows her brow.

"How did he make Jesus? I mean he slept with some guy's chick what the heck is wrong with people. You wouldn't do that to me right?" Stunned, Hawks questions confused.

"If you mean would I go through the pain of labour without painkillers no." Swiftly, she rejects the idea.

"Why is she even called virgin Mary how can she be a virgin if she gave birth?" Befuddled, Hawks argues.

"You're thinking waay too deeply about this Hawks." Honestly, Katsu tells him as he grumbles crossing his arms over the top of the toilet lid.

"If I were a duck, I'd be addicted to you like quack." Cheekily, he winks at Katsumi simply smirking, amused at his words.

"Riiight…." She rolls her eyes at him, a faint fondness in her tone.

"They say that kissing is a language of love, so would you mind starting a conversation with me?" Mischievously, Hawks leans in, his nose once again touching hers.

"Maybe when you don't taste of vomit." Smoothly, she rejects the notion.

"So you'd consider it." Cheekily, he wiggles a brow bemused.

"Oh brother…" She rolls her eyes exasperated.

"You like me really don't ya?" Hawks teases.

"You're a nice person Hawks." Katsumi tells him.

"I'm not a waste of space." Hopeful, Hawks asks breaking Katsumi's heart when hearing his still silence soon follow, his gold darkening, Katsumi knowing that look far too well.

"Never have been why would I be wasting my time with you if I didn't think you were." Tentatively, she kneels down, staring straight into his glassy gold as she tells him that.

"Look, I like being around you. i like when you're happy. I… I like your face." Feebly, he whispers leaning in.

"…You…have a nice face too." Unsure, Katsu offers standing up taking the showerhead.

"You…mean it." Hawks winces when she pours water over him.

"You are a model for a reason Hawks." Huffing, she sighs.

"N-No I mean… If you got hurt… It'd hurt me. And not just 'cause I'd jump in front of whatever was gonna hurt you." Earnestly, Hawks tells her making her furrow her brow.

"Yeah that isn't happening not on my watch." Smoothly, she shuts down the idea.

"No would you just…" Annoyed, Hawks grumbles only then to grunt.

"Hawks…Shit!" Swiftly, she grabs Hawks helping him up only the to quickly turn him as he swiftly opens the toilet top.

"I'm sorry." After a small silence hanging heavily in the air, Hawk heaves out as he holds the rim of the toilet, Katsumi kneels down, drawing patterns in his back.

"Hawks its fine." Firmly, Katsumi assures Hawks.

"No its not you always look after me. Today was your day with your family and I just…" Hawks scowls, curling his fingertips into a pair of fists.

"Come on you look after everyone all the time, time someone looks after you." Katsumi argues.

"Exactly! That's the issue you're kind and I use you for it. You were with family and I…" Incensed, Hawks scowls.

"Sure it may have been a dick move but what happened, happened. There's no use lingering on it." Katsumi states making Hawks grimace.

"People think you're mean rude, cruel but you're not. You're…" Hawks continues only the to wretch as another geyser gushes out of him making Katsumi sigh.

"Let it out tiger." Tenderly, she draws patterns into the back of his soaked head.

"I wish people…" Hawks begs only to spew out his inside as she pours water on him, the shampoo ad vomit dropping down into the toilet.

"Don't force yourself Hawks." She tells him, drawing patterns into his scalp.

"I'm not forcing myself I want to say this you look after me all the time don't you get sick of it?" Confused, Hawks asks her.

"Not really no." Bluntly, she answers.

"No?" Hawks blinks baffled.

"I wouldn't be doing this if you weren't my friend moron." Meekly, she smiles at him making his ruby red features flare up.

"Kats-" Hawks begins bowing his head, drawing patterns into the toilet ring but another geyser soon spews out of him.

"Come on let it out let it all out…." Softly, she whispers to Hawks heaving, staying by his side as he continues spewing out his inside.

*Happy Halloween guys!*
