"What do you mean you don't know..?"

Your angry expression shifted to a more off-guard one as you stared at Byakuya. "Th-That.. that doesn't make any sense!"

Byakuya stayed silent, staring at you with a blank face. You sweatdropped, raising an eyebrow in anticipation.

Hearing a deep sigh, you turned to Byakuya who rubbed his temples. You hadn't noticed it before, but like you, he had deep bags under his eyes.

"I don't know," he repeated, a tired yawn escaping his lips. "You're baffling, this is baffling, everything is just.. confusing me."

You slumped slightly where you stood, any trace of anger would've been thrown out the window if it wasn't for those metal plates.

Never had the boy in front of you acted like this in the time you knew him. Byakuya looked just as confused and upset as you were, though it looked like he had a lot more on his mind than he was saying. Taking the armchair beside him, you hesitantly grabbed his hand.

"W-We just have to deal with it then," you smiled sheepishly, tightening your grip on his hand. After a pause, you furrowed your brows. "On a condition.."

Byakuya raised his brow, looking at you inquisitively.

"What type of condition?" He narrowed his eyes, a slightly suspicious look on his face. "It better not be murder related, because I--"

"No, of course not!" You shouted, your features twisting into annoyance. "I told you already that killing others is wrong, and something I would never even consider doing.."

Byakuya regarded you with an equally annoyed expression, making you sigh.

"I just.. I just need to trust you again," you confessed, tensing slightly as Byakuya's thumb grazed the back of your hand. "You're just so confusing. You act one way when we're by ourselves, and in a completely different way with everyone else..!"
