The next day passes by, and the beam of the sun light wavered over my eyes as I sigh. Another day, another life. When will this be over?

I rose up and did my usual routine. Brush my hair, take a bath, put on my uniform, go on missions and hangout with the other two. Though, this day seems to be different. Because now I'm hanging out with Rengoku. Weird.

We both talked a little after my mission. Until he then invited me to drink with the other hashiras. Is this like last time? Though, I agreed anyways.

The night dawned, and I put on my blue kimono and began walking to the bar that Rengoku told me the others are. And as expected, everyone, except Tokito and Himejima-sama are here. I sat down between Rengoku and Sanemi as it's the only seat vacant and began to listen to them talk.

I took a few shots, and wasn't drunk yet. Though, the alcohol here tastes delicious. I wonder why? Oh right. It's an expensive bar.

I took a small swig of the wine before feeling someone kneeding my thigh while I talked to Kyojuro. I looked down with my peripheral vision to see Sanemi kneeding it with an annoyed look.

I shook that off. Honestly, he always does this when his stressed.

I continued drinking, until I took 10 shots. That's when I stopped. After all, I'm almost at my limit. I continued talking to Kyojuro, basically ignoring my two friends. The serpent and wind hashira. Who looked at each other with a knowing look.

I don't know what they're thinking about. But I know they've got something up their sleeve, and it's not gonna be great. But maybe it'll be great? Not sure.

Soon, We all started walking back to the campus. I had my hands behind my back all the way while I listened to Kyojuro yap about his life. I was interested. Though, I could feel the other two's gaze burning at my back. Gee..

I noticed the flame hashira's hand slowly ran up and gently grabbed mine, which surprised me. Though, I didn't mind and held it, squeezing it gently in response.

His hand is warm. So soft and muscular.. I just noticed that now. I started playing with his hand a bit while he smiled down at me. Though, I know two people at the back weren't happy. AT ALL.

"Your hands are so.. soft." I spoke, a small smile forming on my face as I then leaned down to gently kiss his knuckles, making the taller man lightly blush. Though, he soon laughed loudly. Which made me chuckle a little.

He thanked me wonderfully, though, I soon let go when Sanemi called me.

I turned my head to look up at him, a small smile on my face as I tilted my head at his angry face. The albino took my hand and began to drag me somewhere. A.. placebo? Hold on, theres something like this at this place? Honestly not surprising.. it's the entertainment district. What should I expect?

As he dragged me, Iguro followed behind. And the other hashiras stopped laughing, talking and walking when they noticed we left. Mitsuri giggled as she then whispered something to Kocho, which made the shorter woman laugh. I don't know what she told her. But it seems.. fishy.

Kyojuro just looked on with a confused look. But was soon comforted by tengen and they resumed their usual things, knowing that we'll return tomorrow.

"What's wrong, Shinazugawa?" I then softly asked with a raised eyebrow as I slowly sat down on the bed in the room they requested.
