“Ayato hehe come here honey.”
”yes mother?”
”come give me a hug!”
ayato ran towards his mother but everytime he got close, his mother became farther away.
”mom?”
”mom!”
(present day)
ayato awoke with a start, breathing heavily.
he hadnt had a dream like this since… well since his parents died.
he looked at his clock in his office, it was 4:29 am.
he put his feet up on his chair and curled into himself.
he really misses his parents.
his father taught him how to wield a sword and how to use it.
his mother taught him how to love and how to become a good commissioner.
and god damn it he was soon sobbing like a child.
like a child who misses his parents at a sleepover.
but unlike that child, ayato knows his parents wont come back, they never will.
cause their gone.
ayato remembers the day that ayaka and him heard the news of their fathers death.
they had just barely gotten over their mother and now their father??
ayaka was crying for days and ayato just locked himself in his room, crying aswell.
now ayato was doing the same thing, how pathetic.
soon after he heard a knock on his office.
“ayato?” the soft voice whispered.
“come in” ayatos voice trembled, obviously crying.
“ayato, whats wrong?” he opened the door revealing ayato, crying into his arms.
“t-thoma.. its-“
“is it your parents again?”
ayato simply nodded.
ayato certainly had days he missed his parents alot and you could tell by his humor but none like today.
“oh, im so sorry my ayato.” he said, closing the door. “do you want a hug?”
he nodded again, thoma had the second best hugs, itto being first by a hair.
thoma went in for a hug and they stayed hugging for a while, eventually ayato fell asleep so thoma carried him to his room, and went to leave.
“please dont go..” ayato whispered.
“okay, anything for you, my ayato.”
he crawled into ayatos bed and hugged him, they stayed like this for awhile, it was nice.
sure, ayato may be the Yashiro commissioner, but sometimes, he cries like a child who misses his parents.
(i hc that itto gives 10/10 hugs)
