Frustration Is A Common Symptom Of An Impatient Creature
-'-
Is maddening. There is a beeping noise somewhere in this damn room and its driving me nuts. And this amanto continues to read badly and repeating sentences on that report of theirs. I can feel the vein in my temple ready to explode. But I keep it cool, maintaining my poker face on, until this meeting ends. Yeah. I can manage that much.

Update. I can't manage that much. I simply had to blow up this time. I leaned in to take the documents from the amanto's hands and I shoved them down their throat. Then I searched for the source of the noise. With my sword. By cutting everything that could be producing the beeping. It felt good to relieve my stress.

"So" begins Kamui, amusement in his voice. "What happened?"
Of course the redhead would bring it up. He just had to. I was so tired today; I almost just kick him out of the room when he asked.
"Nothing much" I answer.
"That so?"
I flop on the futon, not even taking my sandals off, I'm so fucking tired I could murder anyone to piss me off, that amanto was so lucky to be of interest to my plans. The young yato moves, and rests his crossed shoulders over my back, resting his chin on them.
"Wanna talk 'bout it?"
"No" I reply with my face buried on the pillow.
Kamui doesn't talk anymore, and I fall asleep.

My body feels numb. I wake up in the same position I fell asleep on, no wonder my body hurts. There is a blanket over me, and Kamui is snoring softly next to me, curled up in a ball to my side. While trying to shift my position he stirs and scratches his eyes.
"What time is it?" He asks groggily.
I check the clock.
"It's fifteen past three in the morning"
"Why are you getting up so early?"
"I'm not. I'm simply going to put my pajamas on" I answer
"Stay" he begs, draping one arm over me.
"Can't really sleep on this clothes"
"Then take 'em off. I've seen ya naked before" he whines.
Seriously, this man can be childish sometimes. Still, I spoil him, and rid of my clothes.
"If I get sick because of you, I'll be mad" I warn.
"Kay" he sighs contentedly.
He buries his face in my chest and snuggles close. I cover us both with the blankets. And I caress his face and hair, the way I like to do; brushing my fingertips softly upon his cheeks, undoing the knots of his hair, stretching the locks to their full length. I kiss the top of his head, and he pecks my chest, where the heart is. We fall asleep again like this, holding close to the other.

There is a knock on the door. It's Bansai. I jolt awake, throwing Kamui to the side, waking him up. I carry the confused yato bridal style and dump him unceremoniously in the bathtub in my panic, then close the door. I rush to get my kimono on, and look less naked. I get to the door and calm my breathing down before opening.
"Bansai" I greet with a yawn.
"Shinsuke, your song sounds agitated today, I daresay"
"Your hearing is probably wrong. Why are you waking me up so early in the morning?"
"It's almost lunch time, I daresay" he answers. "Also, there are a few inconvenients regarding yesterday's meeting, the other party wishes for an explanation. And I'd like one as well, I daresay".
I sigh. I knew that would backlash on me.
"Lunch time? Why did you let me sleep for so long?"
"You seemed in a bad mood when we arrived. It seemed best to leave you to your own devices, I daresay"
Bansai was probably right on his choices.
"Yes. I'll comb my hair and go with you"
After my hair was somewhat presentable I put my sandals on and followed Bansai outside completely forgetting about Kamui.
He kicked me the next time we met.
