A soft knock sounded on the door. "Angel, please open the door." Takuma called through the door.

"No! Go away!" Angel yelled back, burying her head in the pillow.

"I'm coming in." Takuma warned, then opened the door with one of his spare keys.

He closed the door softly behind him, then padded over to the female splayed over the bed. "Angel, please talk to me." He reached out, a hand touching the top of her brown head.

She shook her head, refusing to talk.

"Angel, I'm sorry. I honestly forgot what it was." He sighed.

Angel slowly lifted her head. "You promised." She whispered.

"I'm sorry, Angel." He repeated.

"You promised to take me to my parents' graves! You promised!" She cried.

"Angel-"

"How could you?! I tried to remind you, but you said you were too busy and I couldn't even tell you!" She burst into tears.

Takuma felt terrible. He stood up from where he had been crouching next to the bed. "Let me make it up to you." He sat next to her and cradled her in his arms.

She buried her head in his chest. Takuma ran his fingers through her hair, whispering words of comfort in her ear. After a couple minutes, Angel calmed down to hiccups.

Takuma brushed away a tear with his thumb, smiling at her softly. "Am I forgiven?"

"No." She tried to pull away.

He tightened his grip, pulling her into a kiss. She struggled, but he was insistent, kissing her until she finally gave up and let him.

"Get changed out of your school uniform," Takuma brushed a piece of hair out of her eyes. "I'm taking you to your parents' graves."

Angel closed her eyes for a long moment, and when they opened, her amethyst eyes bored into his emerald.

He met her gaze evenly, and after a moment, she smiled, closed her eyes and leaned into his touch. Takuma smiled.

Forgiven.
