Kaigaku stared at Douma, Doumas eyes Lightning up with a stupid glint as if knowing something that Kaigaku dosent. Kaigaku already started walking away before Douma could open his mouth but Douma followed him.
“Kaigaku, you and Enmu are best friends-
“No, we are not”
“-So I was thinking maybe you guys could-“
“Stop talking, all your ideas are fucking stupid”
“-Come with me and Akaza-sama as a double date!!”
“No”
Douma gave a low whine at the flat out denial at his request from the other harisha. Kaigaku has alway hated going out with any of them but he was fun when he was drunk! And the fact that he was clearly pinning for Enmu was just a added bonus to see the mess play out to Douma.
“But Kaigaku-saaaannn-“
“Shut up already you cult leader wannabe!” Kaigakus voice rang loudly as he turned his head towards Douma, that some of the people they were walking past in the village turned their heads to look at what was going on with them.
Kaigaku quickly turned back around and started apologizing for disturbing them, but he was glaring at Douma from the corner of his eyes
Douma had to bring out the big guns if he wanted this emo little child to come get drunk with him, and he knew exactly what he had to do.
______________________________
“Kaigaku-san! I’m so glad you can join us for the dinner!~”
Enmus excitement was intoxicating to Kaigaku. If there was any human being that could convince him of anything it was the sunshine incarceration that sits next to him
Now Kaigaku wouldn’t say he’s head over heels over this guy had only met a few years ago, but the zenitsu in his head is loudly disagreeing. Kaigaku didn’t know what to do the, fact that both Douma and Akaza have smug looks on their faces made him regret finding it hard to say no to Enmu.
All 4 of them were in a private dining area in the restaurant, it was lit up by a small candle in the center as if to show that Douma wasn’t lying about this being a double date between them, there was a stiff silence in the air as both Douma and Akaza stair at him like he just gave them a million dollars.
“Yeah, yeah whatever” was the grumbled response that Enmu got
Doumas light up again with the light of a stupid idea again and sharply turn towards to his ex/rival/enemy/husband
“Akaza-dono! Do you hear that?!”
“What the hell are you fuc-“
A bird, Doumas' over-decorated bird, flys straight to the table and stumbles into it as it tries to land.
“Douma-sishou!! There’s a mission for you and Akaza-dono!! Head there immediately before someone else gets hurt!!!”
The crow was loud that Kaigaku slightly jumped more into the seat, getting closer to Enmu, Enmu swing this patted Kaigaku on the head as if to calm him down. Douma didn’t look surprised at all as if he knew that this would happen.
“What type of mission need two haris-“
Before Kaigaku could even finish his words Akaza both booked it out of the restaurant, leaving and even more awkward silence neither Enmu nor Kaigaku really wanted to ask what just happened, but Enmu himself couldn’t stay quite for long so he stood up and sat in the seat in front of Kaigaku
They were alone.
Just the two of them
.
.
.
.

‘THEY PLANNED THIS, AND I FELL FOR IT!!!!’
As Kaigakus thoughts grew louder, and his face grew hotter, Enmu put his hand on top of his.
And Kaigaku short circuited.
——————————————————-
Kaigaku was the only one one that truly knew where the dream harishas mansion was, it was a wonderful place, it was full of the red spider lilies that deter demons to come closer, but it’s beauty was something he could not appreciate with the fact he was still not fully there after short circuiting in front of Enmu.
Enmu probably just thought he had something to drink before coming in to the dinner
.
.
.
.
Hopefully.
Kaigaku knew that Enmu was speaking at him but he couldn’t really follow and in turn only responded in nods and grunts,not to different from his normal dialect with Douma. Kaigaku tried to tune in a bit but he was lost in the end
“-In general Michikatsu-sama is very kind but never emotionally ther-“
And Kaigaku went back to day dreaming about waking up next to Enmu every morning. Maybe in his sleep Enmu would shut up or maybe he sleep talks, Kaigaku woulnt mind much but it would be odd.
“-Douma-San is very odd but he means well at least I thin-“
Maybe he and Enmu would adopt a child once they retire, would the kid take his last name since Enmu didn’t grave one? Maybe they could find a last name they both liked-
“But even tho I like all the harisha you are my favorite Kaigaku-San!”
.
.
.
.
.
What.
The.
Fuck.
.
.
.
.
.
HE WAS ENMUSS FAVORITE ?!
“You are my favorite as well, Enmu.”
WAIT, HE DIDN'T MEAN TO SAY THAT OUTLOUD
“Wow! Really Kaigaku-san!? This has to be one of my happiest days in my life sinc-“
And back to daydreaming.
“You are my best friend Kaigaku-san!”
“Oh.”
With a strained smile
“You are also my best friend Enmu”
That’s how he meant it, maybe he should have paid more attention before he said anything. Kaigaku wasn’t listening but he stopped day dreaming and was just in a state of pure numbness.
There’s something to be said that Kaigaku didn’t have a reaction to this as much as blocking it out because there was nothing he could do at that point.
After awhile of Enmu talking and all, it turned to night and Enmu said his goodbyes as Kaigaku leaves.
When he get home he didn’t sleep even a wink.
———————————————-
Douma had a plan, of course he did, the weird cult leader son of a bitch loves getting into business that isn’t his own.
Kaigaku would rather be stabbed right now than have a duel mission with this man.
The fact he met a girl protecting her demon brother quickly made him stop thinking and just act, and if that acting cosited of him protecting them from Douma that was no one’s business but his own.
Even though his only reason was so the girl wouldn’t have to see the death of her only family member.
Having his crow tell them to bring them both back to master muzans estate was also a surprise. That old man always sought to keep family together and without any pain.
As they were getting back, Douma kept harassing him for answers which Kaigaku just scoffed at.
Having Enmu question him back in the estate was different. Kaigaku answered all Enmus questions with no hesitation. Told him that he only wanted to protect the girl from any more suffering.
And Enmu hugged him, Kaigaku didn’t understand the reason but he accepted it and hugged Enmu back.
Kaigaku doesn't know who needed it more
——————————————————
They were sitting in the lightning estate, just Enmu and Kaigaku.
There was no words spoken after the atrocities that was the harisha meating.
But the silence was something they could both take comfort in after the loudness of the past few hours.
——————————————————
“I like you okey! You are the one I’ve loved this whole time you idiot!”
In the end it always just them, and when Kaigaku finally says those words Enmus world starts spinning with happiness he never thought he would get to experience.
——————————————————
“Kaigaku! Kaaiiigaaaakkuuuuuu!!”
“Douma I told you to fuck off alredy.”
“But I wanna know when the wedding is~”
“Shut up you damn leach!”
“Oh and the kids will be a wonder-“
“Oh my lords.”
“I want one named after me!-“
“Absolutely not”
“I will be their favorite uncle ever!”
“Who said you’ll be their uncle!!??”
—————————————————
It was just Enmu and Kaigaku against the world as they stared up in the sky together as the sun rises up into the demon corp on last time.
