Home Life (Rin x Len)

Stupid Rug

Len's POV

I was walking downstairs when i heard Rin stumble over the rug. I rushed quickly to see if she was okay.

"I'm fine Len. Really," she said as she scrammbled to her feet.

I jumped right to my feet to cook us some breakfast.

"If I were you I would go change into your normal clothes." And she did just that.

As I was cooking us breakfast, I heard a loud scream. I ran upstairs to see Rin lying on the floor.

"Rin! Rin! Rin! Are you alright!" I said as I tried to wake her up.

"I'm fine. It's just that I saw something scary, and didn't know how to react."

"Don't scare me like that again," I said as I held her to my chest. Her skin was cold like she had just come in from playing outside in the snow without a coat or jacket on.

She looked up and smiled at me. Our parents were never around. Our dad had died when we were 5, and our mom is always at work, so we have to care for ourselves.

Rin's POV

I held Len tight like I never wanted to let him go. He was always there for me when we were little, and ever since then I never needed anyone else in the entire world. We had to share a room, and bed but, I didn't mind seeing how he is my older brother.

"Len," I said, voice shaking like I was about to cry.

"Yeah Rin? What is it?"

"Why is it every time I hurt myself or scream, you're always right here next to me?"

"Do you not want me next to you?"

"No. It's just that you're always the one who comes running to me like I'm the only thing that matters in your life."

"You are. I love you."

As I reached up to play with his hair, he leaned down and kissed my cheek. I blushed.

"Come on, I'll carry you downstairs," he said picking me up bridal style.

As I put my arms around his neck, so I wouldn't fall out of his grip, his eyes gaze into mine and I felt like I couldn't move at all.

"Len," I managed to say.

"Yes."

"How come when I look at you, you seem to have sad eyes all the time?"

"Because I don't like seeing you get hurt or scared Rin."

With that we were downstairs eating pancakes like any normal family would.

The rest of the night went on, and as we got ready for bed, I felt that nothing would be the same.
