'Hearts !' ー VNC

'Brother' ― 13

It was a pretty cool day, around 7° out.

Darcy had arranged a meet up with her older brother, Jayce.

Her only living sibling that she had contact with.

She decided to meet at a boba tea cafe, despite Jayce not liking Bubble Tea.

She chatted with him, not about much.

He was almost in his 30's apparently, surprising Darcy as she took a sip of her boba tea.

Soon after they parted ways, Jayce went to his job and Darcy went back home to be greeted by Vanitas.

"Hm?" Darcy hummed as Vanitas pouted.
"You left with out me!"
He said.

"I told you I'm going to go see my brother." She said, Vanitas scoffed pulling her into a hug.

"Eh- Vani?" She asked, confused.
"I'm cold.." He spoke quietly, shifting his head so his chin rested on top of her head.

She sighed.

They both went to their bedroom.
"Vanitas, I'm going to take a bath. Don't come in-" She started.
"If you do I will back hand you." She ended.
Vanitas smirked.
Darcy glared at him, before grabbing extra clothes and a towel.

She went to the bathroom and started the water, making sure it was warm before she pushed down the plug allowing the bathtub to fill up.

She got ready to get in and sat down in the bathtub turning off the water.

She did put bubbles too.

She sank into the tub, closing her eyes just a little bit.

She sighed.

About 20 minutes later she was done her bath and she got out.
She dried herself with the towel and put her clothes on.
She wore a white off the shoulder dress that had some ruffles.

She hanged her towel up and put her clothes in a basket before exiting the bathroom and going back to her room.

Vanitas sat on the bed laying down just staring at the ceiling.

Darcy walked over to him and layed herself beside him.

Vanitas looked at her, and chuckled softly.

"You know Darcy.." He started.
"I hate you.." He continued.
Darcy had no reaction, she just stared at him blankly.

"Me too." She said, hugging his arm.
"Huh?" Vanitas said.

"I hate myself too. I hurt people and don't even know it." She said, her voice cracking a bit.

Vanitas sighed, hugging her.

"Vanitas-" She spoke but he shushed her.

Her eyes widened as she stared at him.
He seemed angrier.

Darcy shut her eyes tightly, before feeling a peck at her forehead.

She opened her eyes as she let out a quiet, short and confused gasp.
