Knock Knock

"Hm? Who the hell is that? Im not expecting any one today." Katsuki complained as he walked over to the door. He was expecting to have some alone time today. His kids were spending the week in Musutafu with Kahana so it was just him.

With a sigh he opened the door.

"Listen I don't wanna buy anything and I don't wanna join your little church. Go to the next house." He said before closing the door once more without even bothering to look who was present.

The door was stopped by a fairly petite foot and in peeked a pink skinned woman who was looking confused.

"How about you take a chance to see who's at the door?" Mina said before inviting herself in.

"Sure just waltz your way into my house, be sure to make a meal while you're at it, wouldn't want you feeling not at home." Katsuki sarcastically said as he rolled his eyes softly.

Mina only giggled as she sat herself on the couch.

"Where are the kids?"

"With Eijirou's mom, she said she wanted to spend time with them. They're gonna be away for a week and I was planning on spending that time sleeping." Katsuki responded as he leaned on the counter hinting to the fact that Mina disrupted him.

"Sleep?!" Mina popped up from the couch shocked.

"You're kid free for a week and you wanna sleep?! How about going out? That's why I came over here, I was gonna make Sero watch your kids while me and you went out, but since their already gone there's no need." Mina explained while walking over towards her best friend.

"You came over here just to drag me out of the house? No thanks, why don't we just hang out here? Do we have to go out?" Katsuki said cautiously while fiddling with his cup of coffee.

"Yeah. I mean you haven't r-really left your house since....." Mina stopped herself before finishing her sentence already feeling a shift in the rooms aura.

In Katsuki's mind he knew Eijirou was dead, it was quite obvious. Even little things like the ice tray not being refilled because Eijirou always did that; or having to pump his own gas because Eijirou always did that for him. Even small things in life would remind him that his Ei was no longer here. But he still hadn't gotten comfortable with other people mentioning it, he hasn't gotten used to other people bringing it up. It's like he knew Eijirou was dead, but to be reminded by someone else just felt totally different.

"I-I just think it'll be good for you okay? You're just always in your house everyday and since you're on paid leave right now you don't really have a forcible reason to leave your house but it's unhealthy to be locked away in your house all the time. I think it'll be good for you to get some fresh air and some sunlight. You've always been pale looking but now you look like a fucking ghost!" Mina exaggerated as she sat next to Katsuki at the counter.

"I-I guess...but not for too long. What do you have in mind?"

"I was thinking a spa day! Hanta bought the tickets initially for us but then he thought it'd be a good idea if I took you instead since you needed a relaxing day." Mina told her blond friend as she pulled out two light blue-ish tickets.

"Oh...that's really sweet of him, I'll be sure to call him later. Fine I'll go with you, only because I don't want Sero to have wasted his money.

"YES! Ok I'll go get the car started! Be down in like 10 minutes! We can't be late or they'll cut our time down!" Mina quickly said while gathering her things and rushing out the door.

Arriving at their so called destination Katsuki felt a ping of guilt rise in him as he saw the spa.
