Summary
After Akaza was brought back to the medical estate from his fight with the Upper Moon Three,he gets a stern lecture from Douma.Even if he's angry at the pinkette he still cares for him.After the blond drops his fellow hashira off at his own estate,a surprising question is asked.
_______________________________

Fighting an Upper Moon,especially one ranked in the top three,on your own is most certainly a difficult task.The result would normally be death but somehow,by a stroke of luck perhaps,Akaza had managed to live through his encounter with the all mighty Upper Moon 3.Albeit,he got quite a few injuries.Some would fade,most would stay until the boy's death.Which hopefully wouldn't be soon.

As you can expect when a certain medical genius hashira heard this news he was beyond fuming.Never once in his whole time as a demon slayer had Akaza ever heard the ice hashira yell at somebody.Especially not him.It honestly scared him a little.This gentle and caring man turned in a rage filled beast in just a few seconds.Although he was certainly nice enough to walk the pinkette back to his estate.

The front shoji door to the Soyama estate slid open,the movement deepening the scratch marks on the wooden decking.It was very peaceful,the sun was just barely setting.

Honey yellow eyes wavered between the main hallway of the house at to the ice hashira,a odd and unidentifiable feeling bubbling in the person's stomach as the older man turned to leave.

"Wait."

Douma stopped in his tracks,turning his body sideways to look at his usually loud and aggressive co-worker.The boy looking almost nervous,bandaids littered his face from the small nicks he'd gained in his battle.
"Is there something wrong,Akaza-Dono?" He tilted his head to the side,concern lacing every word that pasted his soft lips.Voice as gentle as it always had been.
"Can you..." Akaza trails off,he feels so stupid for asking this.It will make him look weak,scared and pathetic.Like he's merely a five year old little boy that just had a nightmare and wants to stay with his mommy until he feels better.Yet in this moment he just couldn't find it him to care less about that.In fact,he was terrified that Upper Moon 3 would come and finish what he started.

"Can you stay the night...with me?"

Never once had the words 'Can you stay?' spill from this independent boy's scarred lips,never once had he wanted some to actually stay with him.Never once had he shown that he was genuinely scared of something.

Douma gave his signature gentle and warm smile,putting the pinkette's nerves to rest slightly.Not once had Akaza thought the other would actually say 'no' to his request.

"Of course,if it will put your mind to rest then I shall stay." The blond moved past him,walking into the hallway.Akaza stepped inside,sliding the shoji door behind himself,shivering at the odd coldness of his house.It was never usually this cold.

"I'll make us some tea,you can go get changed in the meanwhile." Douma walked into the kitchen,gently taking off his black haori and draping it over the back of a chair.The Soyama estate was as clean as always.The tidiness must keep Akaza's mind at ease.

_______________________________
Looking at himself in the mirror is something Akaza hates.To him,his body is disgusting.

Littered with both big and small scars,either from those disgusting monsters called demons or the people that beat him when he lived with his dad.Growing up poor meant barely having any food and often going to bed hungry.It was and is a horrible way of living.
