It happened around nine thirty-four at night. The Shinoa Squad plus Narumi and Mikaela had just found a place to stay for the night after running away from the JIDA for the past thirty-two hours, they would continue to run if not for kimizuki's wound on his chest, if not for mitsuba's flu, if not for all the six of them being worn out.
That was one and a half our prior, now all of them are deep asleep with Shinoa on top of Mitsuba laying criss-cross position, Yoichi with his foot on Narumi's face, Kimizuki like a starfish with his arms and legs spread out making the space around him occupied and Yuichiro, who is clearly the victim of kimizuki's anti-touching area as he is not sleeping on their makeshift bed of a tarpaulin Narumi found earlier and instead layed out on a grass.
A move from kimizuki turning to his side hits Yuichiro with his arm on his face, jolting the raven haired awake. I had enough! he pushed the arm away and sat down, glaring at the sleeping man's face "if I didn't care for you you'd be burried six-feet underground by now" each word poking his face with his finger. Yuichiro then stood up looking at the moon trying to figure out the time before mumbling "Im too stupid to know what's the time right now" to himself.
He figured he wont be sleeping anytime soon after being interupeted by a certain someone and decided to look around for a stable source of water, probably a river or a pond since he knew they'd be staying here for a couple of days before running away again. "Mitsuba's flu wouldn't certainly go away today or tomorrow, or for a few days and I dont think that pole if he can move all that much with that wound". He walked east from their camp when he suddenly heard a splash of water. He ran towards that direction, grabbing his sword only to find out he left it behind, mumbling a quite "shit" he then grabbed a rock as its the only source of weapon he can defend himself with.
Not double thinking he threw a rock that's about 6 inches long and 3 inches wide, letting out a battle cry as he ran towards the bushes. He heard a small voice of pain who he certainly recognized, halting his movements the first thing he saw are the clothes that was thrown on a rock which contains; a white robe, black collared shirt and white gloves, with a sword and thigh-high boots accompying it.
"Mika?" he looked at the blond, and he shouldn't have as the second thing he saw is his ass. "Why is he naked? Is he taking a bath? At this time?" He thought averting his gaze from the blond. "Yuu-chan? You're awake?" The vampire whispered turning his head towards Yuichiro not even ashamed for being bucked naked infront of him. "Same goes to you. It should be midnight now why the hell are you skinny dipping at this hour" Yuichiro said with a flushed face, trying to lower his voice.
He heard the latter chuckled and he know it isn't a happy chuckle with its lack of emotion- or maybe its just because he is a vampire now that he isn't emotional as he used to? Nevermind that! He knew his mika like an open book and this chapter has angst in it. "I couldn't sleep." Was all Mikaela said before turning his gaze on his hand that is holding a rock, probably the rock the other threw. "Was it a nightmare again?" It was not new for the vampire to have nightmares every now and then when he sleeps, and Yuichiro is always there whenever it happens. "...mmh" Mikaela said nodding, there was no room for a conversation and Yuichiro know that.
Mikaela felt a presence from his behind and suddenly, a feeling of warmth embraces him. "Yuu-chan?" The raven haired didn't reply and Mikaela didn't bother to talk again. Both of them just stood in the middle of the gushing cold water enjoying silence.
Few minutes passed and they both decided to go back in their camp, holding each other's hand and not muttering a thing. When they arrived Yuichiro grimace at the thought of making Mikaela sleep on the ground, on the grass. "Is it alright to you if we lay down our coats? It's better to use the tarpaulin but there isn't much space for the both of us" Yuichiro said. "I don't really mind".
Yuichiro then layed on his back, checking if it's comfortable to sleep on before inviting Mikaela. "Come here" Mikaela stared at him for a moment before unclasping his sword and putting it on the ground. He looked at Yuichiro and threw himself on top of the other, Yuichiro let out a small laugh and started to ruffle the vampire's hair. "Do you want to talk about it?" ".....No" "alright then" he smiled before kissing the blond's head.
They both enjoyed the moment, pretending that they weren't in the middle of a battle, that they weren't run away wanted teenagers, that they were living on a normal world sharing kisses and affirmitive words, holding each other close with only the moon to witness.
