(Jojo / Jjba X Reader) A 7TH Stand User Joins The Party

Chapter 50

Joseph was gently cradling the baby, saying things like “There there” and “It’s okay.” to the baby.  “Let’s get something to eat.” He said, “I’m sure you’ll calm down once you eat.”

As you walked back, you heard Polnareff whisper something to Jotaro, “...Kakyoin...really….losing it….” you turned, giving the Polnareff a death stare. Sure… There was definitely something wrong, with Kakyoin right now… but to so quickly say that he was losing it…

It just didn't sit right with you at all.

You walked over to where Kakyoin was, starting to unzip your bag. “Hey, Kakyoin… you hurt your arm, right?” you held out your hand, “Let me see, I’ll bandage it for you.”

Kakyoin stared down at you, clutching his arm, “What are you talking about?”

“I saw it on the plane… your arm started bleeding while we were crashing…” you said “I know you’re hurt, so just show it to me.” you crossed your arms.

“What? You said it started bleeding on the plane?” Kakyoin asked, his eyes widening.

“Well… Yeah, you probably hurt it when you started flailing all over the place.” you said, crossing your arms. Why was he being so secretive about the injury on his arm?  “Come on, let me disinfect it for you. I have plenty of supplies left, so you don't need to worry about me wasting them or anything like that.”

“No…” he said, clutching his arm, moving it out of your reach. “L-Like I said, It wasn't a bad injury, so really, I’m all right.”

You purse your lips, “Well… I guess… but let me see it at least, so I know for myself.” you said. If you saw it now, you could confirm what you thought you saw earlier… right now, Kakyoin was just acting strange.

“No, really, it’s fine…” Kakyoin said, waving his hands and starting to back off from you. “It was just a minor scratch.”

“Mh… I guess… But I would still feel better if I got a look at it.” you muttered, but before you could pressure him any further, he was walking away from you.

There was definitely something up with his arm. Something he didn't want you or the others to see… what could he possibly be hiding…?

    After a while, Joseph had put together a dinner for everyone. Joseph's cooking was delicious as usual, and you eagerly ate after not having anything else at all that day. Jotaro already got up, and walked a bit away, drinking coffee off by himself. Maybe you should go talk to him about Kakyoin…

You finished up your food and headed over to where Jotaro was, following his gaze up to the stars. “... you can see them clearer here than we could last night.” you commented, glancing over at him.

Jotaro’s brow was furrowed as it usually was. He seemed to have something on his mind though… “I’m going back to the camp.” he said after a few moments, and started heading back.

“Hey, hey, wait a minute! I came over here to talk to you.” you protested, grabbing his arm. “Kakyoin-”

“He’s acting weird, I know.” Jotaro said, pulling his arm away and continuing to walk.

“Well, yes, but..” you paused, “Hey! Don't walk away from me so casually!” you called after him, quickly grabbing his arm again. “He has an injury on his arm, and he wont show it to me…” you said, frowning, “I saw it for a second when he was talking to Joseph, and it kind of looked like letters…”

“.... and? Why are you telling me about it?” Jotaro asked.

“Well… You’re his best friend, right? I was thinking you could talk to him.” You said, crossing your arms.

“.... You’re noisy.” Jotaro said, turning again and heading back towards the group.

He said that, but… You let out a defeated sigh. Why did it feel like you were the only one who was actually paying attention? But… still maybe he might listen to you...
