Red Crow Blue Raven //SARUMI//

Suoh - Chapter Five

The hot day went by rather slowly in comparison to the usual summer day. There wasn't much action and it wasn't late enough into the season to attend festivities, not that the red clan were the type of people who enjoyed that scene. Saruhiko was still asleep on the couch. Misaki sat across from him with his arms folded. His body was tense, waiting for the monkey to wake up. Could he have been telling the truth? Could he? Saruhiko isn't gay though...

Rikio had also come back around noon, bringing food for the few clan members at the bar and a meal for Saruhiko. He sat next to Misaki but payed no attention to his rival on the couch. "You should start cooking again, my pockets are light" Rikio complained, referring to his lack of money.

"Too busy, learn yourself" Misaki sighed, leaning back in his seat. He hadn't taken his eyes off Saruhiko while he waited for him to wake up. He hadn't eaten the food rikio brought him because he had gotten sick of oily meals though the thought of cooking again could be beneficial for everyone in the clan.

"Mi.... Misaki?" Saruhiko groaned into the pillow provided to him from Izumo. He slowly sat up, wincing when the sunlight hit his eyes.

"Yeah I'm here Monkey, about time your lazy ass woke up" Misaki spoke, getting up from his seat. "How're you feeling?" He asked sincerely.

Saruhiko rubbed his eyes and felt around his glasses, "I certainly don't feel amazing but I suppose it would have been worse if anyone but you had tried to kill me" he sneered sarcastically. Misaki rolled his eyes. "However I can say that I'm dizzy and nauseous. Are you going to apologize?"

"You drank yourself into getting dizzy and nauseous. You also never apologized to Yata. Play dumb and I'll have to kick you out" Rikio growled. Misaki nudged his friend, he felt as though the threats weren't helping the situation.

"I'm sorry you felt it necessary to attack me last night Yata" Saruhiko hissed. Rikio sighed, leaving the bar once more. A person can bite their tongue for so long til they burst, and Rikio was trying to avoid that. The calm member of the clan was hitting his edge, another minute near whom he hated most and there'd be a mess. He knew Misaki didn't need anymore in his head and if it meant him spending the day alone, he'd do it proudly.

Misaki had roamed around the room a bit, also trying to keep from exploding. What he assumed was ignorance coming from Saruhiko, had been annoying him from the moment he saw him in the cake line. "We really need to talk. If you agree to not be stupid, I won't hit you" Misaki spoke, walking back to the couch.

"I'm not the stupid one here" Saruhiko said.

"I mean it. I'm giving you the chance to say whatever it is you want to tell me. I will kick your ass, there's a lot of ass kicking I've owed you since you left us!" His voice raised, catching the attention of all the members in the room. "You're drinking our drinks and eating our food! Sleeping on our couch and being taken care of by our clansmen. The blues don't want you and neither do we. Smarten the fuck up Saru, you know you need us!" His fists were tight, red light radiating from them.

"Okay... I apologize. Let's... talk now Misaki"

I know 300 isn't much at all but like I've noted before, people taking time out of their day to read my shit feels really frickin nice. Thank you for the votes and those few comments <3 I have no idea where this story is going so please enjoy all the sloppy, unplanned trash that's coming your way
