It was obvious to Akira that Roku was just as much clinging to him as he was to Roku. 'How could this happen?!' Akira thought in alarm. 'So close!' Akira's heart was beating really fast, but because Roku didn't move and peacefully kept sleeping he calmed down after a while. He arefully examined Roku's sleeping face. That was something he hadn't seen before. It was actually kind of cute. If it weren't for that huge mark on his neck that is. He carefully touched it a little. Hiyoko had said that Roku had gone to pay his debt off, so why would they hurt him? Akira traced another bruise with his finger to just under Roku's shirt. He kind of wanted to see, but he knew that it was inappropriate to do so.
