Kuro read the messages that Mizuki sent him first, "Are you coming?" "Where did you go?" "Are you okay?" ..Not many messages, but with Ryui on the other hand.
"Where are you?" "Do you think you can run away?" "I'll find you." His messages were more strict, and commanding. He felt light-headed thinking of what Ryui would do since he had run away.
Kuro decided to text them back, even if it costed his life.. "I'm sorry.. Something came up, can I make it up to you?" He sent that message to Ryui, then he wrote back to Mizuki, "I'm sorry, I was busy and couldn't make it." Kuro knew that Mizuki was more understanding then Ryui so he was gonna do more for Ryui to gain his trust back.
Ryui replied almost instantly, "Something came up? Like that ritual you had to go to?" Kuro's jaw dropped. How... "How did you know?"
Kuro was confused, and scared at the same time. "Because I tailed you, did you ever look behind you and see the black car following you?" Ryui replied in under a minute.
He's right.. I did see a car following me, I just brushed it off though.. "Why were you tailing me?" Kuro asked as if the reason wasn't obvious, "I don't know." Ryui responded. Kuro sighed, He's not gonna tell me is he..
Kuro grumbled, looking away from his phone. "He's so annoying.." his frown turned into a smile slightly, "Now how am I supposed to get him out of my head?" His voice sounded tired, and his eyes started feeling heavy. He put his phone on his bedside table.
He then reached over, grabbed his pillow and buried his face into it. I'm sleepy.. Kuro took the pillow off his face and hugged it, trying to make his brain think that it was Ryui. "Mmh.." Just as Kuro was about to fall asleep he jolted awake from his phone ringing, it was a video call from Ryui.
Kuro wanted to ignore it, but when he reached over to grab his phone, his finger had accidentally swiped to accept it. "Kuro.. Why am I looking at your ceiling? Are you avoiding me?" Ryui's voice sounded harsh, and rough.
Kuro reached over to grab his phone and turned his video off, leaving Ryui hanging. "I'm gonna hang up.." Kuro's voice was slightly slurred, Ryui realized that he was tired.
"Fine.. We can talk tomorrow then, goodnight." Kuro thought that Ryui was gonna hang up. So he didn't hang up for himself, but Ryui changed his mind, and he left his phone on to listen to Kuro's breathing. Kuro didn't know that he had left his phone on due to him being half-asleep.
A couple hours later, Ryui, still awake and listening to Kuro's breathing. He kissed his phone and whispered, "You're so lucky you're cute.." Then he hung up. When Kuro woke up, he saw the sun's rays beaming into his window. He laid back down, feeling light-headed still.
He grabbed his phone and saw that the video call length was 2:31:57.
