When Kuni woke up in the morning he was by himself in a single bed that had white cotton sheets. He sat up and press a palm to his head as he had a throbbing headache along with his injury that was nowhere near healed.

He got up and looked around the unfamiliar room looking for Kazuha hoping to see him but he couldn't. He noticed he was in this clothes previous from the night before and decided to walk out the door of his room.

He looked around the corridor confused, he heard footsteps behind him and quickly turned around to see Beidou.

"Ah Kuni, I suppose you're looking for Kazuha" Beidou said cheerfully

Kuni only nodded his head in response.

"I think he is in the room down their, if you go in there becareful not to wake the both of them up" Beidou said smiling "they stayed up pretty late being loud"

She laughed shaking her head as she walked away and Kuni felt absolute outrage. One: they were both sleeping in the same room and two: they were being loud and stayed up late? What were they doing.

Then the wanderer realised it was none of his concern as technically they weren't dating or anything he just happened to have feelings for the poet. He walked past the other twos door and opened it slightly to see the both of them sleep next to each other on the floor.

He closed the door and went back into the room he originally came from. He sat on the edge of his bed with his head burried in his palms. About five minutes later he looked up as he heard his door click open and there stood Kazuha.

"You got wasted last night" Kazuha said shutting the door behind him

"Oh you're awake" the wanderer said sounding gloomy

"Is there something wrong?" The poet asked moving his head to the side

"I just think that maybe we should go back to Sumeru.." he suggested

"We only just got here and Gorou is visiting" Kazuha responded sounding slightly disappointed making Kuni feel bad

The wanderer stood up and walked over to the poet and he cupped Kazuhas cheek and stared into his eyes with a sad look.

"You aren't going to leave me for him are you..?" He asked his voice going quiet

"No, you're the best travel company ever" the poet responded

"Travel company?" Kuni repeated "is that it?"

"What else are you going to be?" The white haired boy asked generally confused

Kuni pulled his hand away and looked away.

"I don't know, I just don't think most people fuck their travel partner" the wanderer responded

"Nows not the time for this discussion" Kazuha responded wearily

"What you don't want your boyfriend to hear?" He asked crossing his arms

"You're being preposterous" Kazuha replied

Kuni suddenly kicked the door and left his leg there to lean against the door trapping Kazuha, his eyes becoming slightly damp having no idea how to deal with his emotions as he didn't even know what they were.

"I thought you liked me" Kuni said

"I do" The poet responded desperately

"You obviously like your other friends more than me" he argued

"How?"

"You've been so much happier since you saw them, you are so touchy with them as well" Kuni explained
