i've lost the prompt bc tumblr ate it :/ | @shealfa hides in a closet with kyo!

it's foolish of him. he isn't quite sure why he does it. people have seen him with loni a million times, knows she is someone important to him no matter how unlikely their bond may seem. but the moment felt private, intimate as they spoke away from the bustle of the other slayers. it felt as if they were in their own little world where it was only them and the fond memories they exchanged. the air felt heavy but comfortably so, like a weighted blanket around one's shoulders, and kyojuro found himself drawn closer to loni, almost like a moth to a flame. so close they became that he realized he could feel her breath upon his face.

maybe that's why he pulls her into the closet with him, to keep what feels like a private moment to themselves.

it's so foolish, though. if the newcomer is a slayer, they must be able to sense kyojuro and loni's presence, but it's more foolish because of how impossibly close he is to the demoness now. his hand rests upon the small of loni's back, steadying her in the small space; her chest presses against his, and kyojuro becomes terribly aware of the heart hammering away inside his chest, of loni's breath tickling his neck, of the way their legs have become tangled.

heat burns along the back of his neck and across his face like wildfire. he barely dares to breathe as loni's eyes meet his, as the person at the door hesitates. he tucks some stray hair behind her ear, fingers lingering by her jaw ( he doesn't know where to put his free hand now ). " sorry, " he mouths, unsure of her expression. then the door finally shuts, and kyojuro sighs, smiles sheepishly.

" are you alright? "
