Soul Eater Post

chapter 9

I woke up the next morning feeling like crap. The smell of bacon filled the house. I walked downstairs to Dragedge making breakfast.

"Feeling any better?" He asked.

"Not really." I responded.

I noticed some boxes in the dining room.

"I see Victor had brought a few things over." I said.

"Yeah. he dropped them off earlier and said he would be back with more later. You hungry at least?"

"A little. I should at least try to eat something."

He put the eggs and bacon on a plate and brought it over to the table. We chatted a bit while eating.

"Would you be willing to get the mail for me?" I asked.

"Sure," he responded.

I put the dishes in the sink while he got the mail. I went to the couch and watched a little tv. After a few hours, around lunch time, there was a knock on the door. Dragedge got up to see who it was. It was Victor, Kid, Liz and Patty. He welcomed them in.

"Are you feeling any better?" Kid asked.

"Not really but I should be fine by tomorrow." I responded.

"Thank you for letting me stay here. I appreciate it." Victor said, placing a few more boxes on the floor.

"It's fine." I said.

"Have you talked to Hatori lately?" Kid asked.

"I sent him a letter not too long ago. He is doing well, and misses it here." I responded with a smile.

We had lunch and chatted for a bit before the kids had to leave. I took a nap on the couch while Dragedge showed Victor to his room, giving him a tour of the house and helping to bring some of the boxes up. When I woke up Dragedge told me my dad had stopped by to see how I was doing. He was going through the mail on the love seat.

"What would you two like for dinner? I don't mind cooking." Victor asked.

"Whatever you want to make."I responded.

"How about soup? It's easy and it might help you feel a little better." Dragedge said.

"Not a bad idea." I said.

Victor nodded and went off to the kitchen. After a little bit he came back with two bowls of soup before going back for his own bowl. While eating, Dragedge was looking at the rest of the mail.

"This came for you." Dragedge said, handing me an envelope.

I took it and started reading it.

'Dear Grim,

It was nice to get your letter a few days ago. Things have been busy here. I am sorry I have not been able to visit for so long. I can't wait to come back, whenever that will be. I miss you.

With love,

Hatori'

I teared up a little reading it.

"Is it from Hatori?" Dragedge asked.

I nodded.

"I miss him more than I thought I would." I said.

"Is it ok if I ask who Hatori is?" Victor asked.

"It's fine. Hatori is my weapon partner. His weapon form is a bow that changes styles and fires specialized arrows with different effects based on the style or design. He had to leave due to being reassigned to the Europe branch. We haven't seen each other in three years. We send letters like you and Dragedge did. I started to fall in love with him as we worked together for nine years. The only way I can describe him is funny, sweet, and kind. He can also use calming aura which is why we were partnered together in the first place." I explained.

" I am sorry for asking. He sounds like a good guy." Victor said.

"It's ok you haven't met him." I responded.

We watched some more tv before we headed off to our rooms and went to bed for the night.
