It's ...2 Am in the UA dorms....There's a knock on Aisurus door.
"Uh hey...." Hizashi stood there trying to pretend he wasn't as messed up with everything as he was...

"Can... I come In?" He was actually quiet in how he asked like he was embarrassed...

"Of course..." Aisuru opened the door to her dorm.

"I'm so sorry... Susu... I ..."

"Don't you dare apologize you didn't do anything wrong." Aisuru cut him off...

"I just I can't sleep anymore Su..Su... I see him .... I see him Dead.... I ..." Hizashi is sobbing at this point... just sobbing .... Aisuru Sat on the couch and Patted the spot next to her as an invitation to join her..... As soon as Hizashi took it she took him into her arms.... Feeling the full effect of how badly his body was shaking from the sobs.

" I'm so sorry.. I'm sorry you had to see him like that.. I wish I could take the pain away from you or at least have been there to share it.... This way you wouldn't have to process it Alone , like this." Aisuru rubbed his back...

"I'm glad you didn't see him like that it's probably the same not thing that makes me feel better is that at least one of us doesn't have to live through the nightmares."  Hizashi stated looking up at Aisuru through the tears.

There wasn't much talking from this point on ... Just Attempts to make it easier for Hizashi to go through.
She got him a warm drink hopefully so that the rest of the night wouldn't be so painful....

"Can I stay here...? Just for tonight I'm cool to take the couch... I just..I can't be Alone ... Right now it hurts so much when it gets quiet... that's when the all of the most painful thoughts are at their loudest."
Hizashi... just stared blankly waiting for an answer.

"Well not without a good blanket ..." Aisuru hands him the softest one

"Thank ..you..." Hizashi barely got out.

"Its nothing to thank me for. You should never have to go through something like this alone.. and I'm glad you came to me... because you don't... have to go through it alone. I'll be here 2Am 9Pm 1-5am whenever you need me ... As comedians like to say I'm here aaalll weeek." Aisuru winked at him.

"Ok I don't want to keep you up too late we have classes In the morning." Hizashi reminded her..

"Ok do you need the lights on or is it ok if I turn them off?" Aisuru questioned..

"You can turn them off."  Aisuru did...

"Goodnight Zashi."

"Goodnight SuSu."

Aisuru woke up to Mic crying loudly in his sleep and getting close to using it in his sleep.
She ran to his side gently trying to wake him up....
"Shhhh.... Shhh Hizashi ,it's ok ,your ok. I'm right here ..."Aisuru tried to reassure him...
"But Shirikamo is still dead." Hizashi had a brokenness to his voice that was indescribable.

"I know...Im so sorry. I hear sometimes when were in class and you forget he isn't there anymore and go to speak to him.... I've caught myself doing it a few times too..." Aisuru noted

"It's empty... without him...is this what it was like for... last year with your parents and the media replaying how they died over and over and over so even if you could move on..." Hizashi asked

"It gets shoved right back in your face? Yeah..."
Aisuru confirmed..

"I just you've dealt with so much death of those and I am having a hard with just one. You're Amazing..."
Hizashi pointed out...

Now Aisuru had started crying ...
"We both know Oboro wasn't just ANY one...he made me comfortable around you all in class...
Before everyone and everybody I ever cared about started dying....
The whole class looked up to him...  I know both of us did... " Aisuru expressed before looking to Hizashi...
"Do you think I'm cursed ... The  people I get close to they just die..., My Parents,Shirikamo,  I just I'm scared..." Aisuru confessed.
