Hatsuharu's point of view
We walked quietly for a while then Kyo broke the silence, "Aren't you going to say something"
"No"
He grumbled and pushed forward
"Why don't you just go back to the house?" He snapped
"Do you want to deal with the consequences that would come from you walking around alone, given the circumstances?" I asked calmly.
"What are the circumstances exactly?"
I was annoying him. I hated seeing him like this and I didn't know how to reach out to him.
"Kyo, do you really need me to answer that?" He didn't answer and walked with his head down.
"Don't go back to the house then, just go somewhere else" he was getting desperate.
"No"
"Why won't you just go away, dammit?" He yelled
"Because I care about you and you're scaring the hell out of me!" Calm down Haru, don't go black now, not a good time.
He stopped and looked at me, suddenly surprised.
"What the hell?!" Was all he could muster
"You heard me," I mumbled, embarrassed at my outburst.
Kyo just stared at me flustered and blushing a bit, "Leave me alone,"he grumbled
"What don't you understand? I'm. Not. Leaving. Get over it." What came next was to be expected, he punched me in the cheek.
"I deserved that," I said plainly.
He dropped his arm "I'm sorry!" He shouted before whispering, "Please, just go away" he sounded like a defeated little boy.
I stayed in place.
"Didn't you hear me? I said go away!"I could have sworn I saw a tear fall from his eyes, but it was too dark to tell.
"I'm not dealing with Hatori's, Yuki's, or Shigure's anger if either of them knew I left you alone."
"Fine, just...don't be annoying"
We continued walking around and soon became lost
"You don't know where you are, do you?" I asked, thoroughly amused.
"Yea I do, the house is...that way" he pointed somewhere. "It...is it that way?" He asked thoughtfully
"Interesting, the ox wasn't the one to get lost" I mused.
"Ugh I'm so stupid! Just the stupid fucking cat! Dammit!" He punched a tree. I hated seeing him get down on himself like this.
"Hey, it's fine. We'll get back. I get lost all the time and manage to find my way somewhere." I took a small, unnoticeable step toward him and was tempted to rub his arm to be soothing but I restrained myself.
"Just another thing I can't do" he huffed under his breath. I'm sure I wasn't supposed to hear that.
"Just pick a direction and start walking, we'll get somewhere eventually"
We came to a mountain side that had severely damaged terrain.
"This is where Tohru's tent used to be" Kyo said thoughtfully. He was so cute when lost in thought. "I know it doesn't look like much, there was an avalanche."
"Oh," I didn't want to talk about Tohru Any longer, Kyo clearly liked her more than me, "Do you know how to get back from here?"
"I can manage," he grunted. I could tell he didn't want to be out with me anymore. We walked a short distance away from the mountain and soon came up to Shigure's house.
He swung open the door and stormed up to his room.
"Can't he escape through the hole in the wall?" Yuki asked.
"No I patched it up temporarily but Hatsuharu-San will be fixing it tomorrow. There is a price to damaging my house."
I mumbled, "Sorry."
"Oh no matter Haru! You will fix my house and all will be good again!" Even Gure's positive mood couldn't break through the dark cloud of doubt
