110: There Are Sadder Ways To Learn About Death

♪───Ｏ（≧∇≦）Ｏ────♪

"(YYYY/NNNNNNNNNNN)!!!!!"

"ZENITSUUUUUUUUU!!!!!"

You and Zenitsu cry like bitches while giving each other death hugs.

"I MISSED YOU SO MUUUUUCCCCHHHH!!" Zenitsu sobs.

"I MISSED YOU TOOOOOO!!!!" You wail, "WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?!???!??!?"

"I WAS ON A MISSION!! BUT I JUST CAME BACK!!! WHERE WERE YOU???"

"I WAS VISITING FAMILY IN MY OTHER HOME!! I'M SORRY, BUT I'M BACK NOW!!!"

"AAAHWBDIEBDID!!!"

"EEEEIDBEIXBWIX?!?!"

"IWBFIEBCIDBISB IDBEIXBIS AIDBIS!!"

"ZX!!!"

Kyojuro had left to write to Ubuyashiki to request a Pillar meeting and to include you, and hopefully Sekido and Uzui.

That unfortunately left Sekido to watch you and Zenitsu with a dumbfounded face.

"Oh, Zenitsu!" You pull away from the hug and wipe your tears, "How was your mission with Tengen, Tanjiro, and Inosuke?"

Zenitsu leans close to you, "I'll tell you later, okay?"

You nod and pat the boy's head, "Baby boy."

Zenitsu bursts into red and hugs you tightly, "AAAHHH! SEE?! I MISS THIS!!! I MISS YOUUU!!!!"

All too sudden Zenitsu pulls away.

"..."

"...?"

"I have to use the bathroom."

"Oh, okay!" You grin, "We'll talk after then, and then we're gonna hang out!"

Zenitsu smiles and nods at Sekido before turning around and leaving.

You wait until Zenitsu rounds a corner before you take Sekido's hand.

"Hey!" Sekido jerks his hand away with a blush coming on strong, "Wh-What the hell was that for??"

"I... huh?" You blink, "Wh-Well, I was just-I wanted to go to a room so... so we can vibe, just the two of us..."

Sekido tsk's and looks away, "Don't you want to wait for Zenitsu? Why do you wanna be alone with me, anyway?"

You couldn't even think for a reply because Sekido just kept on rambling.

"I-I mean, friends wait for friends, right? A-And we're friends! So we have to behave like friends!" Sekido then laughs which makes you flinch a bit, "Friendship!"

"..."

"..."

"You good Sekido?" Your expression contorts into one of worry.

Sekido swallows a lump in this throat and looks at you with slight guilt.

——

"Oh hey!" Sekido greets, "Long time no see!"

Zenitsu smiles and closes the door behind him. Sekido was sitting on his own futon while writing something on paper. Though Zenitsu couldn't read Sekido's (admittedly) beautiful handwriting so the blonde figured it wasn't in Japanese.
