To Protect His Prince

5. Decisions

When morning came Rin felt a warm body next to him. Confused he slowly opened his eyes to find himself facing a chest, Night still slept while having his arms around the boys waist. Rin blushed slightly as he stared up at the older man's face, he couldn't help himself and very softly stroked his hair.

It's really soft. I wonder if he's having a good dream? I'll make him something delicious to eat. Wait a minute...?! Why do I care?!

As Rin was having a internal conflict, Night's expression change into a sad one making the other stop, as he stared at him.

"I'm sorry... Please forgive me my beloved prince... No, don't cry." Where the few words Rin heard causing his heart to ache for an unexplained reason, he did found the man interesting and had seen a kind side to him. He decided to pat his head the same way he had done for him the first night the older man had enter the dorm.

"Hey wake up Umm it's ok it's only a dream." Rin spoke in a soft manner to reassure him.

After some time Night woke up and offer a smile that made Rin blush bright red. "Good morning, sorry it wasn't my intention to stay over." He said as Rin had stopped his petting as soon as Night had awoke.

"It's no problem I mean it was nice not sleeping alone so thanks." Rin gave him a goofy smile causing Nights eyes to go wide for a moment as he stared at the boy.

Rin then tilted his head not understanding why Night was staring at him for so long. "I apologize it's just for a demon you are very kind." Was Night's explanation.

It made Rin glare at him, in a way he hated the idea that just because one was a demon that automatically made you evil and have only thoughts of pleasure and chaos. Just as there were good and bad peoples the same could be said about demons. "What's that look for?" "Idiot! You're a good person too. Just cause we're different from others doesn't make us evil!" Rin yelled at him not believing how dense he seemed on the subject.

The older man's eyes softened as he spoke. "Why of course, my bad young prince."

"Hey quit calling me that." Rin said with a scowled, it had been annoying him so much hearing those words from him.

"What's wrong with the way I address you? Also could I have some of those delicious omelets again?" Night questioned while Rin let out a sigh. Getting up he dropped the subject seeing as there would be no convincing the other, making his way to the kitchen he began to make breakfast.

"Oh crap! H-hey Yukio! When you get back...?" He asked panicking at encountering his brother who had just entered back to the dorm.

Yukio had been away on a mission that had lasted all day. After he had awoken a call had come from Mephisto to investigate strange demon sightings in Tokyo. However they had no luck.

He stared at Rin with suspicion feeling the shorter teen was trying to hide something from him. "Why so shocked? I did leave a voice mail letting you know I would arrive today in the morning. Was his explanation while Rin became pale.

I must have fallen asleep. Shit! Night's still in my room, Yukio is gonna kill me. His thoughts were interrupted by footsteps causing Rin to internally scream at seeing the man now next to him.

Night had gotten curious on why the prince was taking so long so he went out into the hall. Quickly going to Rin's side not liking the panic he saw in his eyes.

"Yukio it's not what you think! I asked Night to h-help me with some-something! Yeah it-it was Umm about demon and their tails!" Rin said in a rush attempting to get Yukio to believe his poor excuse for a lie, while Night pondered why he was saying such an obvious lie. The boy stared at him hoping he'd go along with his story. Letting out a sigh he patted Rin's head, something the younger demon was beginning to enjoy as Yukio watched them interact he grew suspicious of it.
