«Tale of jealousy»

Chapter nine.

Kyojuro woke, rubbing his eyes for a moment.

'Mm.. why do i feel so warm?' He thought, sitting up.

Something moved next to him, and he then looked over.

With a silent curse, he widened his eyes to see akaza had snuck into his bed.

'Someone kill me now.' He thought, getting out of the bed.

A part of him was actually surprised akaza snuck into bed in the night, but most of him was annoyed at how silent he was.

The hashira looked out the window, sighing relief as he was it was extremely cloudy today.

Looking back at the demon in his bed, he walked off to grab a glass of water.

"You shouldn't be walking around, kyojuro." Akaza suddenly spoke, sitting up.

The hashira stopped walking, looking back.

"Ah- i know, im just getting water." He chuckled awkwardly, trying to get away.

Akaza narrowed his eyes. "That's not much of an excuse, I can easily get it." He stated, getting out of bed.

Kyojuro shrugged, looking around.

"Yeah but I didn't want to wake you."

The upper moon stood in front of the hashira, crossing his arms.

'He's like an angry mom.' Kyojuro thought, chuckling to himself.

"You need rest kyojuro." He spoke, carefully pushing the hashira back to bed.

The said hashira sighed, going to the bed.

"Fine, fine." He put his hands up in defeat.

Akaza smiled, then raced off to get water.

"Oh god- don't wake anyone!" Kyojuro whisper-shouted, a bit nervous.

He facepalmed, then crawled back into bed

With a sigh kyojuro wondered how healed his leg was.

'Doesn't hurt at all.' He thought, smiling a little.

Akaza walked back in with a cup of water, carefully placing it down.

"When are you leaving?" The hashira asked, taking a sip.

"Wow, someone's eager for me to leave." The upper moon chuckled, sitting down.

"I'll probably leave soon, I don't want to burn." He shrugged, looking out the window.

Kyojuro nodded, setting the water down.

Akaza turned his attention to the hashira, staring.

The said hashira yawned, stretching his arms out.

The demon crawled closer, sitting in front of him.

Kyojuro raised a brow, looking at said demon.

They sat in silence for a little while, just staring at each other.

Akaza leaned in closer, and so did kyojuro.

Suddenly they both realized how closer they were.

"Ah— I should really get going!" Akaza awkwardly chuckled, getting off the bed.

Kyojuro modded. "Yep!"

The demon opened the window, jumping out.

The hashira sighed, closing it.

Suddenly kocho came in with her little crew.

"Ah, goodmorning!" Kyojuro announced, greeting them.

"Good Morning rengoku." The insect hashira smiled, patting one of the assistants on the head.
