Chapter 5

USS Saragota

Half an Hour later

Serizawa wondered through the halls after trying to make Stenz to not go along with the plan. He was looking for Kiyru and Graham, who seemed to have disappeared off of the ship. He had checked the decks, the viewing room her room and even his room. The only place he hasn't checked was Graham's room so, he was heading towards the said room to check there, just so he can calm his nerves. He went up to her door and noticed that it was ajar. He quietly picked in and what he saw made his eyes soften.

Graham was sitting against the wall, wearing a comfortable pair of yoga pants and a long sleeve shirt. She had her eyes closed and her hair was down for once.

Laying down against her with a head on her chest was a sleeping Kiyru in a pair of pajama pants and one of his white t-shirts. Her face held contentment and peace, which never showed on her face while she was awake.

He carefully walked inside the room, quietly shutting the door behind him and walked over to the two. He saw Graham's eyes open and looked up at him. He was about to apologize when she cut him off.

"I've been awake, don't worry."

He nodded before carefully sitting down on the bed. He brushed some of the bangs from his daughter's face gently before giving Graham a questioning look.

"She over worked herself when I told her their plan." she answered his gaze quietly. "We stopped by your room because she wanted to where one of your shirts. She said that it was because she felt more closer to you when your not around. Sensei...did you really tell her the story about her father?"

"Yes, she wanted to know and I could not deny her. She has been asking me since the mines, always asking why we couldn't visit my father. I could not keep it from her."

"Papa?" a small voice called from Graham's chest. He looked and saw Kiyru, eyes half lidded, looking up at him.

"Go back to sleep little one." he told her.

"Lay down with us?" she asked, yawning. Serizawa glanced at the bed, seeing that the available space is on the other side of Kiyru and he would have to lay on his side. He glanced at Graham who nodded. He took off his jacket and his button up shirt, revealing a cotton white t-shirt, and set them over a back of the chair that sat in front of the desk before taking it off of his shoes and laid down on the other side of his daughter. Kiyru smiled tiredly before letting her eyes droop and falling back asleep.

"Sensei, I know it's not my place to ask but...when are you going to find someone and get married?" Graham asked quietly, making him look at her.

"Whenever this is over and things calm down I sopose." he answered truthfully. "Of course, I'd have to find someone who Kiyru approves of and who doesn't mind her."

"Have anyone in mind?"

"Well, I sopose there is one..." he murmured, still gazing at her. "It took Kiyru most of her time with us to actually make me forget about what's professional and what's not." He shifts closer so that Kiyru's back was against him, making her let out a small sigh in her sleep at the familiar warmth that was her father. He leaned on his elbow before he brought his head closer to Graham before capturing her lips in a light kiss. He pulls away after a second, looking at her before kissing her again, deeper than the first. Graham let her eyes flutter close before kissing back.

Serizawa trailed his fingers lightly against her cheek before pulling away. He shifts, fully laying down and watched as Graham doing the same. Once the two was situated, Graham turned off of the lamp that sat on the bedside table beside her and the room was bathed into darkness.

The three slept peacefully as the ship rocked and the behemoth swam only meters beside them.
