3 Kaku

Getting lost in a crowd of people is a perfect place to lose someone you had no idea of. Especially since he was a prince and as soon as he steps outside girls who are either sluts, filthy poor and more come and surrounding him asking to be the new wife or go on a date. To be honest, I would hate to have so much attention.

           I mean every time I get nervous I always start to fiddle with my fingers or play with my now shoulder length hair. It's weird, I did want to have it cut but shorter.The stab wound in my shoulder was growing more painful each step I toke trying to get home. 

I rubbed the blood gently and quietly whispered under my breath 'Shit'I could already see I Iwa red mad face as he began lecturing me about how much trouble I could have gotten in or how I could've died.

My steps were soft as I began to slow down my walking once I got the entrance of the broken down church. The church was covered in old mold and was made out of old concrete. One of the doors were even broken and covered in roses that should have died a long time ago.

 Some of the lower halves of the church were torn apart so it made it much easier to get in. Inside was like a normal church but with bibles all over the place and everything was ripped apart. Everything but the giant mirror that held Jesus in bright colors.Whistling made it less creepy as I skipped across the aisle to the back. 

There were dark red curtains in the front and behind that was nothing but an old staircase that leads to the attic. The attic was one large open room that did have one sink. Usually, me or Iwa would leave the room whenever it was time to bath from the sink.

"Iwa-chan" I whispered with my most innocent eyes opening the door. There he was with his hands on his forehead looking, sitting on the little purple sheeted bed.

 I and Iwa-chan split the room in half and he got the bigger bed taking the left side of the room with the sink. I got the right side with the sit in window set and littler bed. The room didn't have much but a ton of books spread out everywhere and our chores hanging up but a threaded line.

"Kaku," he says looking up, staring at me. The door swings open as he jumps up to hug me so tightly.

"Oi,the bread," I said as the basket of bread dropped to the ground.

"Your shoulder," he gasps furiously pulling away and turning my body around so my back faced him. I went along as he yanked me. He starts to poke and examine it.

"WHAT HAPPEN YOU DUMBASS!?" he yells as loud as he could.

"Oh, that...I didn't even notice it...not like it hurts or anything," I said nervously playing my hair.

"Oh really?" he says in a dark tone and then jamming his thumb into the wound, sending me in a world of agony as I flinched and screamed.

"Looks like it's still fresh," he says in a told you so tone.

"Piss off," I said trying to move my shoulder but instead end up screaming a bit more.

"Look, I don't have time for this," he says grabbing my waist and sitting me down on his blue bed by the sink "But today we have somewhere important to be."

I raised an eyebrow as he started to take off my shirt. Iwa and I were so close that nothing really fazed us. I let my stomach and everything up above me feel the cold wind hug me as Iwa starts to unwrap the thin vest soaked with blood and throw it aside. Of course, I wrapped my breasts tightly around white bandages.

"What would that be?"Iwa starts to gently dab the dry blood surrounding the wound with a cold wet rag.

 "Well I'm guessing you know that the Kings son, Prince Oikawa is looking for a new partner since his last arrangement didn't work out" I started to bite my nails, scraping the dirt from under.

"Yeah, and?" I said impatiently. 

"Well," says Iwa taking a long breath before starting again, "He's having interviews at the palace with all the women in the village from ages-" 

 "I'm not going if that's what your thinking," I said in a deep tone. "You have no choice, guards will come for us if we don't attend and they'll figure out where we live...it's not like I want you to go," gulps Iwa.   

    "Then we could move, start new, I don't exactly want to be here anyways," I said smiling getting up. My wound was not deep as the other cuts but it did hurt like hell. I couldn't move my shoulder for a couple minutes but it began to cool down as I finally put on a shirt. 

"We are going. And you will try to act proper, I don't like prince Oikawa as much as you do but living there will be more fulfilling than living here," he says putting away the bread.

 "And I don't care," My voice coming out more forcefully "Prince Oikawa is an ignorant dumbass, who thinks the world is a wish giving factory, he doesn't know the first thing 'bout reality, he doesn't know what's it like to survive and struggle," by now I was yelling at the top of my lungs. 

"Of course he is and he always will be, but you want more don't you? You don't want to be fighting bastards for the rest of your life and have to show for it? Nothing."

"I don't care bout fighting for the rest of my life all I want is to be with you!" Iwa-chan steps back frozen. The breathing in my chest tightens and I couldn't look him in the eye while cleaning my bloody shirt right next to him. 

"Your an idiot you know that?" he says softly after a couple minutes of silence. I bite the inside of my cheek trying not to cry. His hand ruffles in my hair and I start to feel small.

"Dad died, mom left and what do we have to show for that, is us...for the longest time it's been only us...I'm scared to lose you too." Iwa stops ruffling my hair for a minute and instead hugs me from behind.

 "You'll always be my little sister, always...and it will continue being us for as long as it can...I promise I'm not going anywhere...I promise they won't take you away and even if they do I'll be right here waiting."
