Dinner that night was unusually quiet, except the yelps from Fenrir. Yamino glanced nervously from Loki to Mayura. "How was your day so far Mayura-san?" Yamino asked.
Mayura took a large gulp of the miso soup, "Okay," she replied placing the bowl down. "Yamino-kun," she looked at him straight in the eye, "the meal was delicious."
Loki let out a small sigh of relief, "It is a delicious meal."
Yamino beamed at the compliments, "I brought some of the flavoring from India. And the cheese in the soufflé was from France. At first I wasn't sure if I should have gone with Gouda, but the Brie is just as delicious as well!" He started to ramble on about all of the places he had brought some of the ingredients unaware of the uneasy silence between Mayura and Loki.
After a few more bites Loki stood up, "I'll be in the study Yamino." He told him before ascending up the stairs.
Mayura looked over to where Loki had just went, "Yamino-kun," her voice was quiet, "where did you and Loki-kun go to that day?"
Yamino froze in place, "What day Mayura-san?" he chuckled nervously.
Mayura kept her gaze at the staircase, "When you guys disappeared, where did you go? Or where were you planning to go?"
Fenrir nudged his head towards the door, "Don't answer her," he growled at Yamino.
"Well Mayura-san," Yamino quickly picked up some of the plates from the table, "why don't you ask Loki-sama?" He suggested.
Mayura huffed loudly, "He won't answer me. Onegai Yamino-kun, where did you guys go?" She asked again. Silence was her reply, "Yamino-kun" she turned back around only to see that her companion had already left
Defeated from yet another chance of a reply, Mayura reluctantly stood up and headed up the stairs.
Behind a door, watching a defeated Mayura leave was Fenrir, "Tch" he walked out of the door, "finally she left." He grunted out.
"Nii-san," Yamino stood behind the small pup, "be nice to Mayura-san."
Fenrir growled at Yamino, "Damare."
Yamino gulped, afraid of Fenrir, "Hai."
Mayura placed her hand on top of the metal door knob; she turned the handle and opened the door slowly. A blast of cold air rushed at her, strands of her hair flying behind. "Loki-kun?" Her voice was carried off by the air. Mayura walked inside the cold room, she closed the door behind. She strolled over to the couch only to come face to face with a sleeping Loki. "Ne, Loki-kun," whispered Mayura, "where did you go?" She repeated the same question again.
She bent over towards him, and placed her forehead against his. The soft, warm breathing tickled against her skin. "Loki-kun, why won't you tell me where did you go?"
"Because I didn't go anywhere." The answer startled Mayura, "I went nowhere." Loki sat up on the couch, his eyes locked on Mayura.
She stepped back, shocked that he was awake that whole time. "L-Loki-kun!"
He ran his hand through his light brown hair, "Really Mayura, I went nowhere that day."
She shook her head, not believing any word he was saying. "Usotsuki! You're lying!" Mayura stepped closer to Loki, "You were planning to go somewhere." She clenched her fist, "When I was here that day, everything was gone." She spoke quietly, her voice unwavering. "If you weren't going to go anywhere, then why would you pack your stuff?" Her nails dug into the palm of her hands, her teeth were clenched together, "I just want to know!" her voice escalated.
Loki stood up, "Mayura calm down," he said to her. "Does any of this really matter right now?"
Mayura nodded her head, "Hai" her reply was cold, "it really does."
He took a step towards her. She took a step away from him. "Mayura, he called out to her. "I wasn't going anywhere, nor was I planning on going anywhere."
Mayura started at him, "Uso." She took a step towards the door, her hand grasped around the cold metal. "If you weren't planning on going anywhere," she turned the knob, "then why is it that no one remembered you except for me? Why did Papa and everyone else we met forgot about Yamino-kun, Fenrir-kun, Narugami-kun, even Kaitou-san? Doushite?" Mayura's voice cracked the tears she was fighting to hold back were now slowly falling down. "Loki-kun anata usotsuki."She told him, before escaping out the door.
"Mayura!" Loki yelled her name; he dashed out of his study and ran after her. "Mayura come back!"
She didn't look back, nor did she reply. Her feet guided her down the stairs, passed a confused Yamino and worried Fenrir, and out into the moonless night.
"Loki-sama," Yamino approached the huffing Loki, "what happened? Why is Mayura-san crying?"
Loki pounded his fist against the front door, "Kuso" he muttered under his breath.
"Loki-sama?" Yamino placed a hand on the young boy's shoulder.
"Otou-san," Fenrir walked and sat next to Loki, "daijobudesu ka?"
Loki ran his hand through his hair, "Daijobuda wa," he replied walking back inside and retreating back to his study.
Fenrir followed after Loki, not even taking a second glance to where Mayura had just fled.
"Mayura-san," Yamino went towards the iron gate and closed it. He turned back finding himself looking at a pair of glowing red eyes from a bush. Yamino rubbed his eyes, and when he looked at the exact same bush, they disappeared.
