" I'll...be your roommate." He smiles at me.

" Well nice to meet you." I smile back.

Just when I get some god-damn peace, this "demon" shows up.

I sigh.

I should be nice to him. He will be my roommate after all.

I yawn.

" Well, I'm going to bed. Night." I lay down and before I close my eyes, I see him blush.

I wake up the next morning to see he has his arms wrapped around my torso.

So he's not only the "easily embarrassed" type, he's also "clingy".

I attempt to pull his arms off me but, hugs me even tighter and buries his face in my chest.

I vanish from his arms and appear next to the bed.

" Now I can take a shower." I walk to the bathroom.

" Hey Shade. Would you like to help me on this mission?" Yukio asks me.

" Sure I wouldn't mind." I say, putting my shoes on.

" That was....intense." Yukio takes a deep breath.

" Yeah." I lie. It was actually very boring in my opinion.

" I can't believe someone could keep a gun in their underwear." He says.

Ok, that part was weird.

" That was weird. Anyway, glad you liked it."

" Yeah.... Same here..." Yukio blushes.

Oh god, what is this idiot thinking now?

" Yukio?"

" Um Shade.... I like you." His cheeks turn red.

Explains the snuggling from this morning. And the fact that he blushes way to easily.

" Good to know." I say.

" But Shade!"

" I just met you yesterday." I say to him.

I bet that shot him in the heart, but, that was the truth.

" Um Shade?" Yukio looks at me, blushing.

" Yes?" I look at Yukio from my book.

" Since I told you-"

" I don't care that you're gay. You can still sleep in this bed, still snuggle, and still blush while looking at me. Or anything you're going to do here. I won't kick you out of here just because I don't "like" you... You are my roommate and partner."

" Shade..." Tears form in his eyes.

I smile at him and put the book down.

" Come over here." I say. He hugs me tightly.

" Shade.." He sobs.

I hug him back.

" Hey Yukio. We have another mission." I lean against the bathroom door as he takes a shower.

" Oh yeah?"

" It's about -" the door suddenly opens and I fall down.

" S-shade!" Yukio backs away, gripping the towel he had around his waist.

I look up and see that he had....many scars all over his body.

" Yukio.... Why are those there?" I ask.
