• chapter 7 •

before we start an engawa is the porch that wraps around Japanese houses outside the rooms

Kakyoin POV

     "Rest now, you did excellent" Avdol uttered as I watched (y/n)'s eyes slowly close and their body relax, they must be exhausted from the fight. I couldn't help but feel a small bit of jealousy flicker in my mind as the Egyptian man gently lied their limp body on the floor. I shook it off and looked towards Jotaro "Why?" I asked glancing down at (y/n) once again, "Why did you risk your own life to save us?" He only stared at me with a daunting gaze and I returned it, determined to get an answer. "Well," He turned around and began walking away "Can't say I really know why." 

Jotaro POV

     "Can't say I really know why." I mumbled while walking onto the engawa and looking out into the yard. This wasn't exactly a lie, I'm still trying to figure out what ran through my head; Or rather who. I can't figure out for the life of me why I can't stop thinking about them. "How annoying.." I thought as I watched mom round the corner with first aid supplies.

     "There ya go!" Mom happily announced as she finished clipping the bandage around Kakyoin's head. "Thank you... very much." He thanked earning a happy smile from mom before she spoke again, "Kakyoin wasn't it?". She turned her gaze down to (y/n) still sleeping on the floor and began preparing medical supplies to treat them. "I think you're overdue for some rest. Why don't you both stay with us tonight? Papa! Get two futons ready for both of them." she said to Gigi who responded by straightening up "Huh? Why me?" he fussed like a small child being told its bedtime. "Ive never liked the idea of sleeping on the floor!" he stated while patting the tatami matts in front of him.

     He crossed his arms and sat up straight, "Holly, get that futon out of my room and give me a real bed!" he demanded. "Papa, you're in Japan," she patted the floor mocking his previous movements, "you should get accustomed to the Japanese way of life. Oh, and call me 'Seiko'." she said firmly. Gigi questioned her before she continued "My friends think my name is 'Holy', so they call me 'Seiko' for 'Holy Child'." she said happily while swaying slightly. "What the hell?" Gigi roared "Holly is the beautiful name I gave my da-" Holly cut him off "From now on I won't answer unless you call me Seiko." she stated turning her head. 

     Gigi slammed the floor calling out to her, but she continued to ignore him. "Good grief." I muttered while tugging down on my hat. "Now everyone out!" Mom announced, "I have to take their clothes off and I'm not letting anyone stick around for it!" she teased. I blushed ever so slightly and tugged my hat down further, and I watched as Kakyoin and Avdol's face tingled with red momentarily like mine.

     "Jotaro bring Kakyoin to his room and set up two futons for them," she paused and turned to Kakyoin "Alright, Kakyoin, take off your uniform before you get comfortable. Jotaro will bring it to me to wash when I'm done taking care of them." she explained and Kakyoin sheepishly nodded. I took one last glance at (y/n) laying on the floor before walking off to set up futons for the two.

Your POV

     You begin to wake up, finding yourself in the same room as before now empty of the people. Or, you thought you were until you heard shuffling making you turn your head to the source of the sound, which happened to be a woman. She had honey blonde hair and cerulean eyes like Jotaro. She wore a manilla colored apron with orange frills and a pink striped shirt underneath. You noted a small beauty mark on the left side of her mouth and green dangling earrings. She was kneeling and packing up a medical kit, humming a tune softly to herself while she picked up used supplies. "This must be Jotaro's mother." you realized, though they looked nothing alike so you figured he got most his features from his dad. 

     You examined your bandaged self, blushing slightly when you realized you weren't wearing anything but undergarments. You knew it was so she could tend to your wound but you were rather modest when it comes to your body. "Oh, you're up! I didn't wake you did I, dear?" she worriedly asked with a gentle smile, "N-no not at all." you reassured, bashful from her friendliness. "Good! Now then, you're all patched up and so is your friend Kakyoin. He's resting down the hall where you'll be sleeping too." she elucidated and you nodded while giving her a small thanks. 

     You reached for your uniform so you could get some rest, you were still spent from the fight with Jotaro. However, before you could Holly snatched them out of your reach "Nuh-uh! You can't be walking around in this thing, its soiled. I'll wash it for you and you can borrow some of Jotaro's pajamas tonight." she said and you blushed. "Are you sure? I don't mind wearing that tonight.." you trailed off before she spoke again "Absolutely not! You should be comfortable and rest up. I'll have this ready for you in the morning." You stared for a moment before smiling and giving your thanks. 

     She stopped before turning back to you "By the way, I never caught your name. I'm Holly, Jotaro's mom, but you can just call me Seiko, dear." she greeted. You followed her lead, "I'm (y/n) (l/n), it's very nice to meet you. A-and thank you for the hospitality, again." I introduced and saw her smile and give you a hum before walking out to get your clothes. 

     You sat up slowly, your wounds still fresh and sensitive. You looked around the small dim room before hearing the door slide open. You turned, ready to greet Ms.Seiko, only to be met with the sight of Jotaro staring down at you and sliding the door closed. Your face exploded in a bright vermilion spreading all the way to the tips of your ears as you attempted to cover yourself, though you knew it wasn't doing much you tried anyways. His gaze cast down on you for a moment before he held out a baggy t-shirt and a pair of pajama pants. "Put these on. I'll take you to where you're sleeping when you're done." He said nonchalantly.

     You snatched the clothes from his hand "Ok, now get out." You snapped. He looked at you before pulling his hat down and stuffing one hand in his pocket "Good grief, you're so fussy. I'll be in the hall." He turned and walked back out closing the door. You closed your eyes and lightly slapped your hands to each side of your face, brows furrowed while thinking about what an embarrassing experience that was. 

     You slid on the shirt and pants before trying to stand up. Accent on the trying. You kneeled and put one foot on the floor before tumbling forward slightly, catching yourself with your arms. Trying again, you got to both feet and started to straighten yourself until you doubled over and clutched the wound on your ribcage. You stumbled forward and braced yourself on the door and breathed out before straightening up and ignoring the pain, not wanting Jotaro to think lowly of you.

     You slid the door open and walked to Jotaro, who held a lit cigarette in his mouth while leaning against the wall. "You shouldn't smoke you know." You criticized, gaining his attention. He only rolled his eyes and muttered something about you before turning and walking away, which you took as a queue to follow. The pain shot into your body with every step, but you ignored it and put on a stern face. 

     Suddenly, you felt yourself launch off the ground and be thrown over someones shoulder, causing you to yelp. "Wh- Jotaro! Put me down." you whined but he only tugged on his hat and tossed you back further "Cut the shit. I'm sick of your tough guy act." he sneered, and you huffed out before leaning your elbow on his back and rested your chin on your hand. This guy.
