"Uta" yoriichi turned to her direction as his crimson eyes were waiting for the black haired girl to wake up.

".. yoriichi?" Uta rubbed her eyes facing his usual blank face.

"Uta" yoriichi repeatedly said signaling he knows she was awake.

"Why are you still awake? It's already dark" she was curious as to what he was doing while she was asleep.
Yoriichi sat up at his futon only looking down.

"Uta, I can't sleep" he muttered.
She sat up in her futon and stared at him, trying to come up with a way to aid him.

Her face lit up like a candle, causing yoriichi to turn around and look at her.

"How about I sing you a lullaby?" She clasped her hands together.
She moved herself to his futon and lied down together. Their heads small enough to share one pillow

"When I was still young, my mother used to sing this to me to help me fall asleep" she cleared her voice preparing herself to sing the lullaby.

"Darlin', I'd wait for you
Even if you didn't ask
me to
Tie a lasso around the moon
And bring it on down
to you"

As He lied close to her, Yoriichi listened intently to every word and syllable she sang with her sweet voice.

"I'd bottle the feeling you give me
And shelve that stuff for years to come"

In Yoriichi's heart, there was a strong feeling. He wishes that this moment could last indefinitely. He wishes he could stay up and listen to her sing him a lullaby. However, he was unconcerned about the sensation.

"'Cause, baby, when your arms are around me
I'd swear that I'm holding the sun"

He had never felt more at ease than when she sang. The comfort he received was vastly different from the comfort he had had since leaving home.

"I'd give you the sun if you asked me
You could have all of the time
You could have the stars and the trees
When dividing up the universe"

Uta's voice, appearance, and attitude reminded Yoriichi of his early mother. Yoriichi had felt at ease and at home ever since meeting uta.

He teared up to the thoughts of his mother. Silently controlling his breath for uta to not notice.
his hand made it's way to hers. uta noticed and tightened the grasp in her grip as they intertwining their fingers together.

"You could have mine
You could have mine"

Yoriichi's vision slipped as he saw uta become hazy, or rather, he watched his world become blurry as he drifted.
For some reason, he could hear his ears ringing. His heart was racing out of control.
He didn't seem to mind. As long as he had uta in his arms, that is.
Everything would be okay.
