Hiraeth | God Eater 2

Sette

Brynn's slow footsteps echoed throughout the hallway. It was early morning, the windows had allowed a bit of sunlight to come in indicating that the Red Rain had concluded. She grasped a tray which had a glass of water, food, and pills.

She decided to bring the captain some medicine as she felt responsible for his hangover, he hadn't emerged from his room since then and even skipped breakfast. Luckily, the platinum-haired one managed to sneak food from the cafeteria.

Her footsteps came to an end when she reached his door, it was the room in the middle of the hallway. She knocked on the door gently, managing to balance the tray with one hand before she spoke gently, "Julius? You up? I'm coming in." She opened the door and was met with silence and an empty room.

She heard the water in the bathroom running, she figured that he was attempting to get rid of his headache with a bath. Placing the tray down on the table the female looked around the room in curiosity as thoughts began to run through her head. She bitterly thought that he was the only one that had his own bathroom.

Did that entail her one since she did become Vice Captain recently? She shook her head to dismiss the thought, and remembered the reason why she was here. She needed to talk to him.

Brynn looked towards the window which showed a fake image of the outside. Each member could choose what view they wanted to have in whatever rooms they occupied. The room that she was currently in had a vast field that had multiple flowers that seemed similar to the ones that they had in the garden. The water stopped running and the door opened, she spun around and nearly fainted at what she saw.

"Ah, J-julius! I'm sorry, I just brought you your food but I-I'll go now!" Her face turned bright red upon seeing the male who had a towel wrapped around his waist leaving his torso bare. He was drying his hair without another towel. She gulped upon seeing the Captain's abs that seemed sculpted from marble. She cursed upon realizing that she was staring at the male's muscular and lean frame. She failed to notice the amused look playing on the other's features as she attempted to walk past him.

She was a few feet away from the door when the figure that she was escaping from had suddenly appeared in front of her. Her eyes were met with his bare skin and she inhaled his scent.

'He smells like lavender.' She thought and couldn't help but think how feminine that seemed. She looked up and saw how droplets of water trickled down his face and the serious look the older one had.

"I truly appreciate your efforts to bring me food, Vice Captain." he gave a reassuring smile. "Give me a few moments to get dressed. I suppose that you stayed to discuss things with me and not to see me partially naked?"

'Who would have thought that for someone so serious, he enjoys other's dismay.' She thought to herself in amusement then found a smirk finding a way to her lips. The flustered state that she was in earlier had disappeared.

"And if I did?" It was the male's turn to blush and she giggled. She began to think that despite him being serious, he was easily flustered and naive as well.

"It was a joke, Captain Visconti." Too bad that she was better at getting on other's nerves.

"Pssst. Pssst." The noise was coming from her as she faced a blue figure. "PSSSST!" The blue figure still ignored her.

"VAJRA!" She screamed causing the blue figure to spin around, the huge blade that he was shouldering was now ready. She laughed boisterously and buckled over.

"Your face was too much to handle!" She remarked through the giggles, she swore that she heard her companion growl.

"I'll feed you to the damn Vajras, fucking idiot."
