The sun arises, the small amount of ray light warmly touched to Sabito's gorgeous features which made him wake up. Scrunching his nose, he'd yawn due to his sleepy state, not getting much sleep since he stayed up late.
Luckily the girls in the estate were kind enough to help and take good care of him during his overnight.
This particular day is different. And he remembers it all over again about Yesterday, it was such a disaster. Is what he thought. Not only that he ruined it, but also showed a bad representation infront of the pillars, and made an unnecessary ruckus.
He was too caught up to his feelings, and of course Sabito could only think much worse, than scaring Giyuu like that - it was frustrating and regretful.
He sits upon the mattress, ruffling the smooth crispy locks of pastel hair. A frustrated groan escapes to his distress, as a frown placed to his lips. Until then, he stays silent, how could he face Giyuu again after that? It was horrible. What he did is horrible. He's deep in thought, so deep he couldn't even move. He only eyed his foot that tapped repeatedly on the floor.
Sabito finally had the energy to accept it, he has no choice to refuse. He stood, briefly exhaling the breath he momentarily held, whilst the warm tender sun reaches the room slowly, that made such aglow of light that filtered each corners of his once, pitched room.
A knock came from the door as it swung open, and a greet from the particular Shinobu came. She's dressed of her attire, ready and prepped. Meanwhile Sabito was.. unprepared. It wasn't that he didn't like the mission, He's concerned about Giyuu.
"My bad for intruding! I guess you only woke up. Get ready, I'll be waiting outside!" Shinobu coherently says, leaving and closing the door to give him privacy.

The girl's waved their farewells to Shinobu and Sabito once they've left the estate. The male walks beside Shinobu.. now awkward as ever - and it feels much likely odd after what happened the other day.
"I-" "You don't have the right to apologise Sabito-san, I already knew it. We all have our sudden outbursts."
"What do you mean?" Asked Sabito, curious as ever from that response. The Insect Pillar merely chuckles softly, a hum follows her. Though, plainly ignoring the certain question.
You could hear a distant voice, of a cheerful or quite energetic man - Sabito's head tilted at direction whereas the sound came from, his eye twitched from annoyance or rather.. something else.
Tomioka stood beside the Flame Pillar, his eyes focused beside the young man, "Why are you coming again?" He inquired in a stoic tone, and a grin faltered Rengoku's lips. "Because I wanted to help!" Energetic as ever.
Giyuu then gazes at him, confused, with eyes squinted at that answer. And just when Giyuu's head turned to face the path, his livid orbs quickly met Sabito's periwinkles that have already been watching him.
Sabito awkwardly stares away from the sudden meeting, and Shinobu was one that could immediately see it since she enjoyed it a lot. "Good morning! Tomioka-san! And Rengoku-san!"
UGH. It was too awkward, Sabito flushed slightly; not noticeable but it certainly was there. Of all times why would he feel so embarrassed? Was it because he was incredibly uncomfortable about yesterday?
Rengoku greeted Shinobu, and then.. Sabito, they had a small or rather tense moment yesterday ever since Rengoku grabbed his shoulder immensely hard. "I'm Rengoku Kyoujurou! I sincerely apologise about yesterday I merely am worried for Giyuu here..! It looked like you were about to hurt him." Rengoku kindly smiled, offering a hand.
Sabito looked onto his fiery eyes, and he accepted the handshake and smiled warmly, although a fake one. "A pleasure to meet you. I'm Sabito, it's alright I'm sure you misunderstood that. You see, I wouldn't hurt Giyuu." He says in such a kind tone, and yet - he squeezes Kyoujurou's hand hardly.
And Rengoku is aware of it, and he accepted the pain for the two other pillar's to not notice, but Shinobu could clearly see it since she stood beside Sabito. And Giyuu stood behind Rengoku.
An awkward silence came around, afterwards Shinobu gasped a cheerful tone and decided to break off their 'handshake' with her walking onto the middle. "Tomioka-san! Why won't you greet me? Also Sabito!" She smiles with eyes closed, clearly sliding off to Rengoku's side for Giyuu to see her.
A heavy silence settled over them, thicker then the uneasy tension in the atmosphere. Unsettled eyes glanced unceremoniously around and tried to avoid catching other glances. Some shifted uncomfortably from the unease of waiting Giyuu's cue.
The water pillar blinked innocently, and quite shyly. Sabito saw it, it's too cute - although he didn't know what to say since he's not one to start up such a conversation or greeting, but Giyuu surprisingly managed.
A nod is what Shinobu only received, and Shinobu was honestly pissed. From that small greet. "That was quite a useless greeting" She chuckles with a pissed smile, but, nods back.
Then Tomioka turns to Sabito with not much of an emotion shown, for a good 5 seconds he then greeted him, "Good morning, Sabito."
Sabito's heart pounded against his chest, unable to control the warmth to his stomach that began to rumble in such a fluttering feeling. "..Good morning, Giyuu. I genuinely apologise about yesterday. My emotions were too caught up." Sabito bows for respect.
Giyuu blinked with surprise at that bow, of course, his apology was accepted. "Sabito, you don't have to. Stand yourself, Please. Forget what happened yesterday." Hands gently rubbed against Sabito's shoulders, and it was Giyuu that gently held it with ease.
Shinobu randomly snorted, covering her lips and constantly giggling, apparently her cheeks were rosey and you could tell she grew a liking to both of them conversing properly. And Rengoku merely gazed with the usual contented smile - both of which, did not bother them.
"Sorry-" Sabito apologises once more. "No, don't apologise. It's absolutely alright." "Yes, sorry I-"
"I didn't mean to- again-" Sabito lost composure, after all he felt warm deep within. His hand gently rubbed against his nape, and the stoicism of Giyuu remained, as he nods. "..Right, let's get going." Giyuu awkwardly rubs his forearm, eyes casting down the dirt.
And Sabito confidently walks beside him, giving space for him to be comfortable - and the two pillars behind, followed. "This is going well -" Rengoku stated, his fiery eyes focused onto Giyuu.
And Shinobu hums satisfyingly, she didn't show much. Perhaps she's certainly excited. "I couldn't help it, they absolutely looked cute it's as if they're a married couple."
"This is.. no fun and games, Shinobu. But I see that point!" Rengoku laughs, and Shinobu stares at the taller pillar alongside her. "You're serious today Rengoku-san haha, that expression you made was quite.. pissed eh?"
"I've never been this enflamed haha!" Remgoku boasted another laugh, and Shinobu joins him this time around, she could tell he was faking it for the sake of Kagaya's given task to them.
They needed to take a look on these two, and not just any means of surveillance, It's so much more. And they could never turn down a request that Kagaya rarely asks for them.

The sun rather hid behind the clouds while the quartet continued to walk. It begun to get dark.. nor rather, windy. The harsh breeze brushed upon their haori's, giving them a shiver of the cold wind. The skies cried a loud rumble, it's going to rain. There are no trees or any shades around, not a single one.
Since they've been walking on a Prairie land, there was not a single shade for them to take cover. And Sabito is concerned for Giyuu, heck he'd do anything for him.
The water droplets fall like they simply cannot think of anything better to do. There is a laziness about them, as if they can barely be bothered to conform to the will of gravity. "Giyuu it's raining, use my haori" he kindly offers the colorless haori to Tomioka, and despite that kind offer, he flat out rejected it.
"No, use it for yourself I'll use mine. We can't let anyone of us get si-" His voice cut off once the raindrops relentlessly dropped upon the thundering sky, it was bigger than the prairie hailstones. Cascading heavier than before.
The rain has fallen steadily without let up since before they awoken. Outside the summer flowers and leaves droop under the weight of the droplets. They've had so much heat lately that they've almost forgotten this feeling, the cool freshness in the breeze.
Sabito alertly takes off his haori and wraps it atop of Giyuu, and the raven haired boy could only look at him with widened eyes, flabbergasted. "Sabito! ..You'll catch a cold!"
"Giyuu, it's fine." Sabito retorted, waving off his hand, meanwhile Rengoku decided to cover Shinobu since she's fairly small, and you could say that Rengoku was hugging a small teddy bear, that is in need of it's protection.
The heavy rain obediently soaked Sabito, his peach crispy locks of hair are wet, his entire clothing soaked quickly. And Sabito smiled towards him, he didn't want his very sunshine to get sick, so Sabito scooped Giyuu before he'd react - technically carrrying him bridal style. As he runs carrying the dumbfounded male as if his life depended on it.
"Wait!" Giyuu shouts, though unheard by the rain that bored down mercilessly upon the Prairies, each droplet pounding on the dirt, turning the nice summery Prairie of the Downtown District into a warren of wetlands and muddy waters.
