Azusa's P.O.V.
I remained sitting on my bed, confused by what had happened. Whatever happened, it made me happy. I smiled. That was the most time I think I've spent with Kanato. I started to scratch at my bandaged arm. I'm feeling that urge again. I ripped off the bandages, seeing all of my previous scars. I looked at one of my knives at the table. I stood up, holding my aching side, and walked over towards it. I picked up the knife, then I placed the blade to my arm.
"Kanato-kun....you truly are.....a mystery...." I shivered as the cold steel touched my pale skin. I dug in just deep enough to draw blood. I made a small line on my arm, wincing at the pain. The blood dripped from the wound and onto the ground. I smiled.
"Hello....Justin." I made another small cut, wincing again. Truth was, lately pain has been something that has actually been hurting. It's been less of a joy lately, but its also something I can't stop. As long as I am in pain, I can make others feel better, like Justin, and.....
"Kanato-kun...." I did another cut, whimpering a little this time.
"Azusa!" Suddenly someone took the blade from me and slammed in onto the table. I looked over to see Kou, a worried look on his face. I stared blankly at him.
"Kou-kun.....why are....you here?"
"I was looking for you to see if you wanted to play darts, but instead I see you doing this again!"
"I'm not good....at darts. Maybe you can.....ask Laito." Kou glared at me.
"Don't change the subject! We have gone over this a million times, you have to stop cutting yourself!"
"But....it makes him happy." Kou sighed, and placed a hand on my shoulder.
"Azusa, Justin is gone now. He isn't here to hurt you anymore."
"He's right here...." I replied, tracing the wound on my arm. He gave me a pitiful look, then he sat me down and looked around the room for a first aid kit. I just remained silent, staring at the blood that leaked from my wounds. They really did hurt......
Kanato's P.O.V.
I remained seated in the cold tomb, looking at all of my wax figures. Their beautiful skin, their beautiful dresses, the glass eyes....now these were my kind of people. People who were quiet, people that looked sad, soulless.....
I sighed in relief. This was my special place I go to when I need to relax. The only place my brothers respect. Right now, I don't even want to go back into the house. I don't want to run into him again. My eyes narrowed at the thought of that fool. I looked down at my arms to ask Teddy a question, only to remember he wasn't here. He was burned up, sitting on my bed. I frowned, hugging my knees.
"Damn you, Azusa...." I muttered. Yet, I couldn't stop thinking about him. The sad yet happy look on his face, all the bandages he wore, it was all so strange. I placed a hand on my head. Dammit, why am I still thinking these thoughts? It doesn't make sense to me. I'm too tired to deal with this. I laid down on the cold hard concrete, far away from the door. I honestly didn't like it. This place....its not as comforting as I remembered it to be.
The wax figures just seem to be glaring at me with cold eyes, the darkness makes me feel helpless, and the concrete ground just made me uncomfortable. But, this was the only place I could be alone. Although....I feel awfully lonely. I pushed away those thoughts. Stop it Kanato, what are you thinking?! You love this place, you love the cold darkness, you love to be alone....I forced these thoughts into my mind as I drifted off to sleep.
Azusa'a P.O.V.
It was the next morning. Everyone was eating breakfast. Everyone, except Kanato. I noticed the empty seat next to me. Yesterday night was the first time in forever he had a meal with us, now he's ditching us once again. I looked at Reiji.
"Where is.........Kanato-kun?"
"Asleep I assume. I knocked on his door, but he would not answer." I stood up.
"May I.... try to go.....wake him?"
"I suppose, but if you need to, let him sleep." I nodded and walked down the hall and up the stairs. Soon I came across his room. I knocked on it.
"Kanato-kun.....are you...asleep?" There was no reply. I knocked again.
"Breakfast....is ready." Still no reply. I creaked the door open. I was surprised to see that his bed was empty. Was he awake? Where was he? I spotted the burned Teddy sitting on his shelf. I frowned. I do feel really bad about that. He loved it so much, and I destroyed it. I walked over towards it and picked it up. I guess its in better condition then I expected. An idea hit me, and I teleported to my room. I hid Teddy in my closet, then continued to search the mansion.
Kanato wasn't anywhere to be seen. Soon I was just exploring more rather then searching. This place was really big. I soon found one door that lead way down. I creeked down into the dark, taking one step at a time. The air seemed to be colder the more I went down. Soon I found a door, and opened it slowly. I was greeted my a number of female was figures, standing at the sides of the room.
Oh, this must be Kanato's special place. Shu spoke of it once before. No one is suppose to come down here. My eyes soon became fixed on a boy laying on the ground. I quickly recognized the purple hair, and was worried. Is Kanato hurt? I walked closer to him.
"Kanato-kun.....?" As I came closer, the weight on my chest was off. He didn't seem hurt, just asleep. Why would he sleep down here alone? Even I wouldn't do that. The look on his face as he slept, it looked slightly pained. I frowned.
"Kanato-kun....." He stirred slightly, but didn't awaken. I turned to base at his was figures. They were truly beautiful. I heard they were once his old bride offerings. I was snapped out of my thoughts by a sharp gasp. I turned back around to see Kanato staring at me wide eyed. At first it just seemed like shock, then it turned into anger.
"Azusa! What the hell are you doing here?!" He stood up, glaring at me. I blinked, looking right into his eyes, which seemed to make him uncomfortable.
"I was.....looking for you. Do you....want breakfast?" Kanato gritted his teeth and grabbed me by the collar of my shirt.
"Don't you dare change the subject with breakfast!" He threw me against the wall, and I gasped to catch the air that was knocked out of my lungs.
"Were you not told of this place?!"
"No I....heard this was....your special place-"
"Then you know damn well that this place is forbidden! So explain to me why your here!" Kanato yelled.
"I only wanted....to find you, I....was worried." Kanato looked at me surprised, then he growled and punched the wall beside me, but I didn't even flinch.
"I never asked to be found did I? Did I?!" He is so scary, but if lashing out at me makes him calm again, then he can do what he wants. Kanato opened his mouth to say something, but froze when he was my bandages on my arm. They were fresh, and blood barely bled through.
" ....what happened? " I was surprised by his question, but pushed it aside.
"I was....talking to Justin....again." Kanato gulped.
"A-Again?" I nodded. Kanato was silent for a moment, as if thinking. Then, he shook his head, glared at me, and shoved me harder to the wall. Then he leaned close to my ear.
"I better not catch you in here again. If so...I'll tear you from limb to limb." My eyes widened. His words didn't frighten me, nor did the tightening grip on my wrist, but rather....how dangerously close he was to neck. I gulped.
"Y-Your awfully close......Kanato-kun...." He pulled away, looking at me puzzled. You see, I didn't mind being hurt.....just not the neck. I've had a bad experience as a kid, and I'd rather have it be left alone. I gently pushed him away with shaking arms, then backed away.
"Come have breakfast.....okay?" With that, I teleported from the room, leaving behind a confused Kanato.
