Demon/Autumn Dorms <DORM 037>
[15th August 13:05]
Akashis p.o.v

Akashi could only grunt as he woke up from his deep sleep, and left behind a dream about Ruki being in trouble, but everything beyond that was foggy. A mist that conjured up a tornado and whenever he tried to think hard about it, his head began to throb as he pushed further to know what happened. But to his dismay, he had no such luck.

"Raspberry" a familiar blonde screamed, not to be annoying, but more because he was worried. While Akashi slept Ruki had done nothing but twiddle his thumbs and stare at the redhead as he slept. Furthermore, the appearance of a shifter who had been suspended temporarily due to being the one behind a violent attack on Demons had been reported back on the academy grounds.

That shifter was nothing but bad news, with all of his antics and intelligence he had even managed to corner Takeshi of all people. The timing of the appearance couldn't be ignored. He showed up right as a powerful demon that Takeshi called the Prince of hell showed his true colours, could it have truly been a coincidence? To the Dorm leaders And Ruki who had suffered greatly from the dangerous shifter, not at all. With the shifter back in town and the true character of Akashi being revealed, it meant only one thing could be in store for the academy.

"Ruki?... What time is it?" Akashi whined, laying back down as soon as he sat up. He snuggled his head into the pillow which seemed to completely absorb all of the constant throbbing and migraines Akashi had been dealing with from the moment he woke up. Even if it was only for a few seconds, Akashi was glad.

"That doesn't matter right now, how are you feeling? Sick? Any headaches? Pains?" Rukis worry didn't cease as he kneeled down by Akashi's bedside. His worry only seemed to grow. Akashi grew worried himself, due to the sudden seriousness of the blonde who, the whole time Akashi had been friends with him, had been nothing but a bright boy with a bubbly and exciting personality and attitude toward everything.

"I'm fine... I only had a dream about you being hurt-"

"Raspberry, that wasn't a dream. That was real, you jumped in and took them all down and then passed out just after" Ruki explained, holding on tightly to Akashis hand, and putting it to his forehead. "You passed out and worried us all, the twins played hell with those damn assholes, and Takeshi immediately brought you here while Haruka checked if I had any injuries, for the record, I only have one"

Akashi heard a small chuckled after Ruki had said his last sentence. 'How can he be so positive after that...' he wondered to himself. If it was only a few people, Akashi would be able to understand, but that was a group of tall, muscular boys who were out for blood, and Ruki was their target. The only conclusion Akashi could reach was the fact that it wasn't the first time it'd happened to his poor roommate.

"I'm glad you're alright, flower boy" Was all Akashi could mumble out, with the furrowing of his eyebrows and pursed lips. The hand that wasn't held By Ruki clenched in anger, sharp nails digging into his skin and drawing blood, teeth-gritting, He promised himself he'd destroy them all one day. They could consider it Karma, for Injuring Ruki  nevermind even thinking about it.

"Hey! I heard from Takeshi about the location of your father, he can't come to visit you just yet, but apparently he said he will visit as soon as he's finishing cleaning up a few issues. He can't wait to see you again! " Ruki gave Akashi his famous carefree toothy grin which was remotely impossible if he wasn't true to his feelings. That's how Akashi knew Ruki was fine for the time being, however, he had a feeling that it was only a matter of time.

"I'm glad... It's been so long... I can't even remember what he looks like" Akashi said, telling no one in particular. Seeing as Ruki was the only one sitting in the room to listen, he patted the red-haired male on the head and weaved his fingers through the fine, soft strands of hair. Ruki knew just how Akashi felt, after all, he did lose his father at a young age, and with a stubborn mother who couldn't stand seeing her husbands face any longer so she threw most pictures away and locked the rest up in the attic, Ruki had no way of knowing what his father looked like.
