I was currently in the kitchen playing on my phone as I laid on the sofa while Megumi was quietly making himself dinner.

"You sure you're not hungry? I can make you something if you want." He looked at me for a moment then went back to cooking.

"I'm fine, thanks." I said while looking for a new show to watch to waste some time. For ones in a very long time we were both in the same room alone without a single argument. It's probably because we haven't really been near each other for quite a few days. We also just came back from a mission that drained most of our energy so an argument is the last thing we want to get into.

Megumi was finally finished cooking as he plaited his food and placed it on the table but instead of sitting down to eat he grabbed a piece of chicken and started walking towards me. I looked up at him confused while he extended his hand that was holding the chicken towards me. I took the chicken and after a few seconds my face brightened.

"It's good huh?" He looked down at me waiting for feedback. "Mhmm." I hummed while still chewing the food. "You sure you don't want some? We can share."

"I just ate Megumi. Thanks though." I smiled up at him as he nodded, now heading back to the table to enjoy his tasty food.

We kept quiet after that. Just him eating and me finally finding a good show. Everyone else was either asleep or on a mission so it's nice to get some quiet time. Megumi's not much of a loud person, to the point were you can sometimes forget that he's in the same room as you. I liked that a lot about him since I very much like a good quiet space to read or watch something on my phone or my favourite way to spend my time, Daydreaming. Just staring at nothing while imagining a whole story in my head.

I was half way into the show now when I heard footsteps coming into the kitchen. Megumi kept cleaning not really bothered to check who it was. I was about to resume the video when I saw someone standing next to me. I looked up from my phone to see Kamo standing there with a smile on his face. I placed my phone down as I sat up now smiling back at him. "I though you went back to Kyoto." I told him.

"Not yet. I had a few things to do here but I'm leaving in about 2 to 3 hours." He said while looking at his watch.

"Awhh you came to say goodbye to your favourite person huh? Come on, sit down don't just stand there." I pet the seat next to me but before I had time to look back up at him I was pushed back down on the sofa with Kamo now laying on top of me. "you're squishing me! Did you gain weight? holy shit!" He just laughed as he wrapped his arms around my waist hugging me while he placed his head in the crook of my neck. "Stop complaining. This is the last time I'll be seeing you for a few months or even years." I sighed as I rolled my eyes at him. "It will be forever if you kill me. You're closing my windpipe." I pushed him off of me a little as he held himself up with his elbows that were on either side of me.

"Sorry." He kissed my cheek to apologise. "You have been forgiven Kamo boy." I held his cheeks with my index fingers as I moved his head from left to right. "Since I don't have too long here. Want to do something fun?." He looked at me with a cheeky smile. "What do you have in mind?"

"Well, quite a few things that will keep us busy and entertained for at least 20 minutes." He wiggled his eyebrows at me as I just laughed lightly while pushing him off me. "No Kamo, it's not gonna happen-" I was cut off when I heard glass shatter. I looked over to were the sound came from to see Megumi standing next to the sink. I pushed Kamo off completely as I sat up to look at Megumi. My eyes trailed down to the floor were a few droplets of blood were. Immediately, I stood up and went next to Megumi.

"Hey what happened? Are you ok?" I placed my hand on his back before looking in front of him. He held his head down while a broken glass was in his hand. "Shit" mumbled to myself before taking his hand in mine as blood smeared on my hand from the cuts. I looked back up at him worried but he just kept looking down at his feet. I started taking the broken shards that were on his hand but not really in the skin and placing them on the counter.
