[25] Oni Out

It was the following morning and you had just explained everything that happened last night to Ayato. You had completely forgotten about everything until Ayato pointed out the cut on your neck. When you told him he was troubled and surprised he didn't wake up.

"I stopped hanging out with Sara because something felt off about her, but I didn't realize she was willing to kill someone," Ayato told you.

"I never expected it either," you responded.

Ayato didn't want you to go through the trouble of making breakfast after everything you'd just been through, so the two of you went back to his apartment for some of Thoma's home-cooked meals.

During the taxi drive back to the apartment, Ayato was telling you how Itto is finally going to leave later. Ayato sounded extremely happy about this, but you were kind of disappointed. You knew Itto wasn't going to stay very long, but he was a funny guy and was enjoyable to be around, even when he acted super stupid.

Once arriving at the apartment Ayato opened the door, and to your surprise, it was quiet inside. You expected that crazy oni to be causing some type of chaos.

Ayaka was the first to notice your arrival. She greeted you with a big hug, "Y/n I heard what happened last night," she said pulling back from the hug and looking at you with a worried expression. "Are you alright?"

You nodded in response, "yeah I'm fine-"

Ayaka gasped, "oh my goodness, what happened to your neck!?"

She pointed at the bandage that wrapped around my neck. "Oh, it was just a small scratch, but your brother here insisted on fully wrapping it."

"It could've gotten infected," Ayato admitted.

"It was just a scra-" you suddenly got interrupted by your stomach growling. You blushed in embarrassment.

Ayato chuckled, "you had a long night. I'm sure you're eager to eat."

You hesitantly nodded, wondering when the last time you even ate was.

The Kamisato siblings walked to the kitchen, so you followed them. The smell of Thoma's food he was cooking made your mouth water. To your surprise, Itto was in the kitchen too. He seemed to be helping Thoma?

"Make sure they come out golden brown, otherwise they won't have the best flavor," Thoma instructed.

Thoma is teaching Itto how to cook. This is probably going to end up burning down the whole building. You gulped.

The food that smelled so good no longer seemed appetizing, now knowing that Itto was assisting.

"They've been cooking all morning," Ayaka told you, "Itto's been working hard to perfect cooking before he leaves. He wants to be able to make food for himself and not have to rely on fast food."

That made sense, but that still didn't mean Itto's food was safe to eat. You were just praying that Thoma supervised enough so you wouldn't find any beetles in your breakfast.

Time passed quickly as you chatted with Ayaka and breakfast was ready in no time. Shocking enough, the food tasted amazing. It didn't even seem like Itto interfered Thoma's cooking one bit. Maybe Itto wasn't a terrible cook like you'd imagined.

Shortly after breakfast, Itto had everything packed up. You were worried about what'll happen to him because he doesn't exactly have a home to go back to. Itto didn't have very many belongings either, everything he had was shoved in a big backpack.

You all went outside and stood on the sidewalk saying your goodbyes to your oni friend. A taxi was parked at the side of the road waiting on Itto to hop in.

"Are you sure you'll be alright out there on your own?" you asked for like the hundredth time.

Itto grinned, "I appreciate you care so much about me, Y/n, but I already told you there is nothing I can't handle. Besides, someone obviously doesn't want me here."

Ayato narrowed his eyes.

"Oh, I'm sure Ayato will miss you, he may not show it though." Ayaka insisted, causing her brother to glare at her.

Thoma hugged Itto, "I'm going to miss you bro."

"I'm going to miss you too."

That hug felt like it lasted an hour, and you could've sworn you saw some tears shed.

"Don't forget all the cooking tips I taught you, they will come in handy." Thoma said, "and especially don't forget that eggs will explode in the microwave."

Itto nodded, "I'll make sure to never microwave eggs in the first place!"

Ayaka giggled, "I wish you could stay longer, I'm sure Thoma will miss you the most."

Thoma burst out into tears, "how could I not miss him?!" he cried, "he's my bro!"

Itto appeared to be bawling his eyes out as well, and the two of the crying men settled in for one last hug.

The hug broke after the taxi driver called Itto in.

"bye everyone, hope to see you all soon," the oni sniffed.

"It was nice meeting you, Itto!" you said.

Ayaka waved, "safe travels, hope you find somewhere to stay."

"Bye..." Ayato mumbled.

"I HOPE WE MEET AGAIN BRO!" Thoma shouted as the taxi door shut.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

It was later that afternoon and you've been hanging out at the Kamisato's apartment. You were enjoying your time with them as you mentally prepared yourself for school tomorrow. It was going to be completely different. You have a boyfriend, Sara is in jail, and Yoimiya probably still hates you.

You wanted to explain the situation to Yoimiya, though, because you had the strong feeling that she was being manipulated by Sara. You really hoped that were the case, because you would have no idea what to do if Yoimiya really does hate you for ditching her.

Your day ended with eating dinner at the Kamisato's and Ayato walked you home.

"I hope your able to get some rest tonight," Ayato told you, "you've been through a lot these past few days."

"Thank you."

"I'll see you at school tomorrow," he said then kissed you on the forehead, "I love you."

You smiled, "I love you too," you gave him a quick peck and it was obvious to see his pink cheeks afterwards.

He left after making sure you got inside your apartment, and you went straight to bed preparing for a long day at school tomorrow.
