You were sitting at a tree, looking out at the woods with a neutral look inside your E/C eyes. You didn’t really think about anything at the time, you just admired the tall and dark woods you were currently in. You looked over them and you also looked at the moon which was high tonight.
It was full moon to so it shone quite brightly over you, making it hit perfectly on you. With the moonlight washing over you perfectly, you sitting on the tallest tree in the woods it was no doubt that you looked like peaceful like this. You sighed from your nose as you leaned back on the tree, continuing to let your eyes look over the dark landscape.
So to get straight to the point you were a Shinigami. Or people would call you most of the time a reaper. Your job was to hunt unfortunate souls that were going to pass on. As of now you waited for that exactly to happen.
You didn’t know when it would happen or who but you knew that when you would see them you would know. That’s for sure. So with that you just continued to look down into the dark, trying to see with the help of the bright moon.
You didn’t really want to do this right now but your ‘partner’ wanted you to do it. He was a higher rank so you didn’t really want to disobey him. Plus he had helped you with some work to so you just wanted to repay your debt.
Who is your ‘partner’? It was another Shinigami named Suzkilli. He have been working as a Shinigami long before you so he also had become your mentor and after some time you both often went to work together, making you both refer to each other as ‘partners’. You most of the time though didn’t really like calling him that since you still saw him as mentor.
After some time you felt the branch you were sitting on bend slightly, making you look up to see a familiar figure stand beside you. “Ah, Suz, didn’t you say that you wouldn’t come today?” you asked. He continued to look straight in front of him with a smile on his lips. “I had some free time so I decided to come by” he said.
“You didn’t really need to, I don’t think anyone will come through here anyways” you started. “I’ve been here for hours now and nothing has come” you ended. “Be patient, that’s one thing that we Shinigami’s must have” he spoke. “I know, I know” you only said, sighing softly for yourself as you realized that there was no way now that you could escape work.
“You didn’t plan on slacking off, did you?” he asked, his smile still present on his lips as he now turned his head towards you. You jolted softly at this. “N-No of course not! I’m not that kind of person you should know that! Hahaha…” you blurted out nervously. The black haired male looked at you for some seconds until he once again turned his head towards the forest.
“You shouldn’t slack of, you know that right? Our job is very important so we don’t have time to slack of” he scolded, making you turn your head to the side in a bit of shame. “I know” you spoke quietly. “It’s just I’m really tired and nothing has happened at all!” you almost yelled out as you turned your head up to him, seeing that he had turned his head towards you.
He still had a smile present on his lips. “You are such a child” he said. “H-Hey! I’m not!” you said, standing up so you were face to face with him. He only chuckled softly by this as he turned his head away once again. You sighed and followed his lead, knowing you couldn’t argue with him since you knew you would lose the argument. You always did when it came to him. “But I can understand” he said. “You’ve been here for a couple of hours now, right?” he asked, making you nod. “Then why don’t you take a break then?” he asked. Your eyes practically lit up by this. “R-Really?” you asked, making the male Shinigami nod. “But you still need to be around the area” he said. “I know, I just want to take a nap” you said, sitting down onto the branch as you leaned your head towards the tree. You were used to sleep on trees now since you have done it a lot due to your work.
He looked at you as you were now completely comfortable, your eyes closed as a neutral look took over your face once again. Suzkilli saw the moon light once again place itself onto you, making the features on your face stand out more and an almost magical look take over you.
His eyes were fixated on you at this point as he only continued to look at you. After five minutes or so he finally snapped himself from reality, shaking his head softly. He didn’t have time to slack of either right now.
The Shinigami sat down, feeling his legs getting tired from standing up for too long. In silence he loomed over the forest, looking to see if anyone needed to be reaped tonight. He was sure that someone would come through here, he knew that.
He heard you suddenly mumble in your sleep, making him look over to you once again. He studied your body for a bit, trying to see if you were cold or not. He pulled of his long coat and he place it over your form softly, careful not to wake you up. After he had done that he placed a small and gentle kiss on your cheek, smiling against you.
It was good that you were slacking of now.
