Soulmates (Yoriichi x Muzan)

🔪☀️Chapter thirteen☀️🔪

💕💕💕

Michikatsu sat awkwardly with his brother in his arms, Yoriichi had been crying for the past hour. He tried to say something to Yoriichi but he didn't know what to say to his crying brother. He was still confused by what Yoriichi said earlier about Muzan Kibutsuji being his soulmate. Michikatsu felt like he couldn't talk to Yoriichi about it, Yoriichi was already going through so much and for once in Michikatsu's life, he wanted to comfort his brother. Michikatsu had only done so much digging on Yoriichi because he wanted to see how "perfect" his life really was, Michikatsu had always been jealous of Yoriichi and when Yoriichi wouldn't talk about his soulmate he obviously wanted to know about it. But now he's realized Yoriichi's life might not be so great... maybe he had always gone too hard on his brother, when Yoriichi came over to visit him that one time Michikatsu was actually secretly happy about seeing his brother. They hadn't seen each other in so long and that's Michikatsu's own fault because of his selfish reasons.

He rubbed Yoriichi's back and rested his chin on top of Yoriichi's head, for not seeing each other in a while it's crazy how similar they are. They even tied their hair up similarly. Though Michikatsu was somewhat certain their facial features were a bit different he just thought he had a more stern resting face while Yoriichi's seemed calmer. If he had known how bad Yoriichi's life was before then maybe Michikatsu wouldn't have been so hard on him before, it was true he did have a secret soft spot for Yoriichi. Which means now he has to make things right.

He took a slow breath and stopped his hand moving around in circles on Yoriichi's back. He cleared his throat and spoke awkward tone. "So... hm... where would your soulmate be right now? Out of curiosity."

Yoriichi sniffled and wiped his face with his sleeve. "We had... well... some what of an argument, I don't know what it was, I've never felt this cold towards him before."

Yoriichi's voice was hoarse from the crying he had down for around an hour and a half. Michikatsu couldn't blame him though, it's probably not just Yoriichi but also his soulmate hormones, having a fight with your destined lover can be very painful. "Fight... like you hurt each other? Was it just yelling? Maybe specify a bit."

"It wasn't anything like that, it was... well, I'm not sure." The depressed looking and sounding man sat up a bit, sniffling again and hiding his face in his hands. "Have you ever been mad at someone because they were hiding something from you?"

"Not really." Michikatsu raised an eyebrow putting his hands in his lap neatly. "But I can imagine I wouldn't exactly be happy with that understanding the circumstances."

"Well, that's what happened basically. Muza-" Yoriichi cleared his throat not feeling comfortable saying that name in front of his brother. "My soulmate, he... well, he knew something I've been wanting to figure out for around a month now."

"That could really mean anything, how bad did you want to figure it out?"

Yoriichi had to put it in simpler words to be able to say it properly, he still wasn't at all sure what was even happening, or if this was even real. "Do you love your wife?"

Michikatsu was a bit caught off guard with the question. Although, he could admit, he wasn't exactly in love with his soulmate the first time they met. But once Michikatsu got to know her it was like they were destined to be together, so of course. "Yes, I do love her, why do you ask?"

"Let's say in a hypothetical situation, your wife wasn't your soulmate."

Michikatsu nodded his head slowly, "Right...?"
