(Nsfw warning!)

You wake up to a ticklish nose, warm sunlight falling directly on your eyes and you felt sticky and sweaty all over.

'Ahh, what a terrible way to wake up to first thing in the morning.'
You thought to yourself.

You tried to get up and draw the curtains, hoping to get some more sleep but you couldn't?
You were unable to move your arms as if you were being squished beneath something.
'Oh'
You were.
Someone was sleeping on top of you, with their head buried in your neck.
The realization hit you.

Naked.

Both you were naked.

What.

'I SLEPT WITH SOMEONE??HOW COULD IT BE?
I LOST MY VIRGINITY? WHO TO WHO?'
Your mind was going through a storm of doubts.

The slight snoring and white hair falling on your face, immediately made you recognize who it was.

It was Kazuha.

*sigh*

You felt relieved that you slept with him and not some random stranger.

Huh?

"HUH???"

"I SLEPT WITH KAZUHA?!"

You were now fully awake and aware, embarrassment tinting your cheeks red as you recalled what happened last night.

~Fleshbeck~

"Kazuha! Wake up!"
"Oye!! We're home"
"Hey, wake up!!"

"Ugh.." Kazuha slowly got up with the support of your shoulder, and pinched his temple, letting out a quiet groan.

"What's the matter Kazuha?"

"My head hurts.."

You place your palm over his forehead to check the temperature.

"Oh my, you've got a fever" You said, fixated on him as you went into a daze.

"Y/n..?"

You gently carressed the scar on his forehead wondering how he got it. You ran your fingers through his soft, messed up hair tidying it up.

What did happen, that scarred him this prominently? It more looked like a burn as the skin around the scar looked charred. Come to think of it..Kazuha's father had the same exact charred scars all around his body. Was it just a coincidence? Or are you just overthinking? Or was it-

"Hey, y/n.?"

"Huh? Oh ah..sorry got spaced out there...take some rest, ill go get you some medicine."
You said shaking off your thoughts, giving attention to what is needed at present.

You mixed together some medicinal herbs and naku weed you bought from a guy named Harrison in Ritou the other day. He sold a bunch to you for very less price. You're the type of person who can't turn down a good deal. Eventhough, the guy seemed a bit suspicious he was pretty nice to you.

"Here" you handed the glass of medicine to kazuha as he took a sip, frowning at the distaste

"I'll go get a change of clothes so just wait here."
You said giving him a pat on the head and a soft smile.

You freshened up, changed into your sleepwear, and grabbed Kazuha's.
The house really did seem quiet. Usually at this time of night, it was pretty lively. The elders would be tidying up from their work or preparing to go to bed.
They would yell at you and Kazuha for staying up too late and made you two go to bed. Even if you both were grown adults, to their eyes you both were still children and would always be. But now it's all gone.
