Saviours of the spirits

Chapter 3:

Nellie smiled at him " Yeah you go and start walking with Kami I'm just going to finish my eyeliner," Mikoto gave her a side smile and left the room.

He strolled into the living room to find kami on one of the chairs looking at something with precise detail. Mikoto smiled, the sight of him always put a smile on his face.

As he got closer he saw something all too familiar in the other boys hand. " Where did you get that," he asked a shocked kami with little agitation siting on his voice

" Oh Mikoto, sorry I didn't see you coming," he said with a small stutter in his voice. Mikoto got closer to see a better view of the object in his hands, " Where did you get that?" He asked again trying to sound calmer.

" Oh the pocket watch, I saw it on the table next to your bag," he replied with absolute innocence. Mikoto tried averting his eyes, he hadn't taken that out of the front pocket of his backpack for years, he wondered how on Earth it had ended up out of his bag and into the boys hands.

" right ok just hand it over please," the shorter boy complied as Mikotoshoved it into his jean pocket trying to change the subject of their brief conversation.

" Um so we're going to go out now Nellies just finishing packing up and she said we should meet her there to get set up," Kami didn't say anything he just gave a small smile and started walking to the front door.

Mikoto grabbed the picnic bag and quickly messaged the group chat to meet him at the location before joining kami out front. "Kami that's Japanese isn't it?" Kami looked up with a paling expression "Oh yeah," he responded "My um my parents wanted me to fit in while we were living  in Japan and they thought a Japanese name would do just that,"

Mikoto looked him up at down, he himself was taiwanese but his mother was Japanese and wanted to keep a bit of their heritage with them when they moved to the states so they named him Mikoto. " So your parents are Japanese?" He asked wanting to know more about the boy, kami shuffled a bit before answering " well my biological parents are- were German,"

"Oh so you and Nellie arent-"
Kami shook his head before turning his gaze from the road ahead to his feet. " My parents were teachers, but the pay was better in Japan then in Germany so they moved their together. They met Nellies aunt and uncle there and became very good friends, I mean they even were both pregnant at the same time," he gave a small chuckle before looking back up at Mikoto and continuing " Um but my birth wasn't conventional to say the least, I was upside down and the doctors had to perform a c section but my mother didn't make it, and my dad couldn't live with the fact his wife was dead and it was all thanks to their newborn son, so he went up to a bridge on the same day I was born and he, well he's not here anymore, I didn't have any other family so Nellies aunt and uncle took me in and named me Kami while also raising their son, we only moved here because it was um well you know it's getting too expensive to live in Japan and we- I mean they have family here,"

"Oh I'm sorry m, that must have been hard to say to basically a complete stranger, but I'm glad you opened up to me," Mikoto said and smiled at kami. Kami returned the smile but he could feel his pale cheeks blushing. He turned around trying to avoid Mikotos gaze, luckily Nellie was as hurrying towards them.

"Wait...for...me!" She yelled between breathes causing both of them to stop in their tracks.
"Gosh you two are fast" she said as soon as she had caught up with Kami.
"We are not fast Nel, you are just too slow," Kami teased.
"Kamilon?" She said knowing how much he hated that nickname.
"Yes Nella?" Kami fired back,
"Shut up," she said and lightly punched him on his shoulder.
