Y/n sat outside, sitting on the side of the hill next to his home. Mk and Mei had left to go back to their respective homes after spending the past two days at his house. They made a mess the first day, but after Y/n (gently, mind you) scolded them, they quickly cleaned up and kept the place relatively tidy afterward. They had watched movies at night and ate snacks all throughout the day, along with some take out boxes of Pigsys noodles. Mk would fall asleep against him after eating too much, which caused Mei to fall asleep right after. So Y/n would move them to lay comfortably on the floor, blankets covering them, making them snug and warm.

But now they were gone. And Y/n felt a little lonely again. He didn't know why. Maybe it was because he had gotten a little used to those kids bothering him every day. He could almost smack himself for being so sappy.

He sighed, looking at the city in the distance, nothing was going on, it was a peaceful day, most would say. The lights of the city were beautiful this time of day, around mid-afternoon, the coulds were doing well with covering the sky and the sun, which meant it would probably rain soon. Y/n took a deep breath, smelling the faint sent of rain. The smell made his shoulders relax out of their tense state since they've been like that all morning.

Rain was comforting to him.

His crutch was beside him on the grass, his left foot out, the other crossed as he set his hands in his lap. The wind had a gentle, cool breeze to it that made his slightly tall grass wave.

Unfortunately, his peace didn't last long. His brow twitched at the sound of wings flapping. He didn't bother to turn around since he already knew who it was.

"Shouldn't you be watching the kid?" Y/n spoke up after the bird settled next to him, folding its wings. The bird shifted.

"Ah, and here I thought I was being sneaky." Monkey King chuckled, crossing his legs, his hands resting on his knees. He lifted one to rub the back of his head.

"I probably should since I have to start training him again soon. But I decided to come check in on you." He said.

Monkey King had been doing this a lot lately. Before that stupid skull key the other day, Y/n had noticed a certain bird sitting outside his window every now and then, watching for a while before flying off. Y/n would ignore it, either catching his eyes and giving him a stern look, causing the king to fly off, but most of the time, he pretended he didn't notice.

His words made Y/n raise a brow, finally glancing over at him.

"Why?"

"I don't know."

"That's a dumb answer." Y/n scoffed.

"Yeah." Monkey King laughed.

"If you don't need anything else, you can leave. I prefer my alone time." Y/n said, closing his eyes. He didn't hear much of a response other than an intake of air.
