♞ [25] Brotherly Love♞

The window shattered open and a box with a little ribbon fell onto my bed. Ayato who was beside me looked at the box in confusion.

"The hell?"

I picked up the box with my okay arm and inspected it. It was a green box with a (F/c) ribbon tied around it. Managing to untie it, I opened it and was met with a familiar ring.

It was the 18k gold ring with the cursed forged emerald, I had slipped onto (Y/n)'s finger.

I looked at the ring in confusion, she shouldn't be able to take it off unless I take mine off. I stared down at the ring on my finger.

"How?"

"Oh, it's that cursed ring you gave (Y/n)." Ayato pointed out.

"Yeah, I don't understand how someone was able to take it off, you don't think someone chopped off her finger?"

"I don-"

The door slammed open revealing an angry older brother mine. A lavender-haired brother to be precise.

He walked in with a tray of food. I would hate for that brat to be the one feeding me. In walked Azusa after him and I immediately called out to him.

"Azusa-kun you're going to be feeding me right? Thank you!" I said sending him my usual smile.

"If you'd like me to... Laito-san..." He sat by my side with a bowl of porridge Reiji made. Actually, it smells a little different, maybe Ruki made it?

"Fuck you Laito..." I heard Ayato whisper to me as Kanato sat down angrily and scooped some hot porridge and forcing in his mouth. Ayato spit the porridge out onto the floor and yelled at Kanato,

"It's hot you brat! Blow first!" He yelled.

"I don't care!" Kanato said.

"Listen to me! I am your older brother!"

"Wow, it's been a long time since I've heard you say that," I remarked, while Azusa was blowing on the porridge to cool it.

Ayato looked away. "Forget I said anything."

"W-wait I remember! It was way back when we used to call you Ayato-nii!~" I teased, earning an annoyed look from Kanato.

"I'm going to murder you-"

"I remember how it went! We'd play outside all the time and chase after bats! I even remember playing leapfrog and hopscotch!~ Weren't those good time Ayato-nii?!~~" I teased Ayato, hoping to piss him off. Instead, I was met with a different reaction.

"Yeah, I remember... we were so close when we were younger but that bitch tore us apart if you think about it."

I thought briefly back to Cordelia, how she'd touch me when I was younger and how she forced Ayato to study and be the best. I remember how she almost drowned him. I also remember her never giving Kanato enough attention.

Kanato scoffed, "Whatever it doesn't matter she dead now."

Azusa brought the spoon up to my lips and ate the porridge. This wasn't Reiji's cooking. It was Rukis.

"You're right." Is said swallowing down.

"Listen, guys, I don't say this a lot, but I'm still your older brother. And somewhere within me, I do care... a little for you guys." Ayato said.

Did I hear that correctly? Ayato becoming human is starting to change him.

"I don't care for your pitiful human emotions," Kanato said forcing a spoon of porridge down his throat.
