SAINTS (1x1 w/DarkMukip)

"Maybe..." Akihime agreed, "But we already owe Masamune a lot...I hate to ask for more favors from him.."
"I agree. I hate being under his thumb as it is." Sasuke said.
 
“It isn’t ideal.” Amaya admitted. “But we can’t keep pushing our luck; he’s barely got his kakuja under control.. An accident is bound to happen.”
 
Akihime didn't seem to like hearing that, her body language changing a bit.
"What she meant to say, Aki," Sasuke said quickly, "is that we're worried something like last night might happen again and dana might not come to this time."
"I trust him, you should too." She said.
"We do," Sasuke said, glancing back to make sure Yukimura wasn't looming and listening, "but...we need to just keep an eye on him...make sure he's taking care of himself." Akihime's shoulders slouched a bit.
"Yeah...I'll try a bit harder..."
 
“I’m sorry, that came out bad.” Amaya apologized. “I only worry we’ll let Yukimura get hurt- we need a plan to help him. All of us need to train with administering his suppressants and we all should have several doses on hand at all times. I’m sure we can go through Date to get more supply and I can pick up some extra hours working to pay it off.”
 
"They are harder to get now, especially with the CCG thinking Aki's dead." Sasuke sighed.
"I know, I'm sorry..." Akihime muttered. She made coffee for them and set mugs in front of them on the table, "I'm sure Masamune has a means to get more. Asking him for favors just makes me feel weird."
"You're preaching to the converted, sister." Sasuke said.
 
“We don’t have much of a choice, I have no money either, and no connections…” Amaya took the coffee with a soft thank you to Akihime, adding some cream to hers. “We’ll just do what we can.”
Yukimura finally emerged from the room, covering a yawn with his hand. “Good morning.” He greeted the group.
 
"Ah," Akihime brightened up instantly, moving over and offering the coffee she had made for herself to him, "good morning, sleepy head~"
"Look who decided to join us." Sasuke teased.
 
Yukimura took the offering of coffee gratefully, much needing a caffeine pick-me-up. “Thanks, good morning.” He greeted before looking to Sasuke. “Can you blame me? The meds knocked me out.”
 
"I can't blame you, no." Sasuke replied, "I bet they do."
"And that's ok," Akihime said with a smile, "rest is important." She touched Yukimura's cheek affectionately before moving to make herself a new coffee.
 
Yukimura moved to sit at the table, drinking his coffee. “I’ll go speak with Date once my clothes are done, I’m hoping he gives us the day.” He mused, blowing on his cup to cool it.
“Got something planned?” Amaya asked.
Yukimura shifted in his seat, scratching the back of his neck. “Admittedly.. a date?” He said, glancing to Akihime.
 
"Oh ho?" Sasuke smirked, leaning closer, "Want some quality time, huh, dana?"
"I won't say no to a date." Akihime smiled, moving to set her mug on the table, "I guess I'll have to sneak to the safe house to get a suitable outfit~"
 
Yukimura blushed at the teasing, even the tips of his ears red. “It’s been a long time… And I too need more suitable clothes, and we’ll need some supplies.”
 
"We can make a run later, I might still have to do chores for Masamune before he lets me leave." Akihime smiled.
"Have you guys ever actually been on a date?" Sasuke asked curiously. Akihime's face flushed gently.
"Uh...well...kinda?" She glanced at Yukimura with a frown, "do those times at the cafe after Laurent count...?" She had always seen those as soft immersion therapy sessions.
 
“I guess not no..” He mused softly. “Only before..”
“I can cover for you, Akihime, that way you and Yukimura can go worry about other things.” Amaya offered up.
 
She looked to Amaya, looking a little worried.
"Are you sure? You don't have to, Amaya, I can knock them out easy!"
"Nah," Sasuke leaned back in his seat, "you two need a real date. You've been dating a while now and haven't really spent time together, go enjoy it."
Akihime flushed and smiled softly.
"Ok, thank you so much, I'll make it up to you!"
 
“I’m sure we’ll all have plenty of time here to do that.” She teased,
“Thank you, both of you.” Yukimura was grateful for his friends, and after having some breakfast and getting dressed in the freshly washed clothes thanks to Akihime, Yukimura headed off to see Date about work.
 
Masamune was lazing around with Megohime, flipping through tv channels as he played with her hair.
"Hitto," Yoshinao bowed gently, "Sanada wishes to see you."
"Mm...ok, send him in." Masamune waved his hand gently, signaling his approval.
 
Megohime glanced to Masamune, a bit self-conscious to be around Yukimura after what had happened.
When Yukimura came in, Megohime kept her eyes on her magazine, not daring to cause a scene this time.
Yukimura bowed his head to Masamune, clearing his throat before speaking. “I wanted to come to you to see if there was more work to be done, and if not, that I be allowed to go out with Akihime today.”
 
"Aw, you wanna go on a date?" Masamune asked, giving Yukimura his full attention, "That's pretty cute. You guys didn't do half bad last night so you have my blessing. I'll probably have something for you tomorrow."
 
Yukimura bit his tongue on the snarky comment, figuring he better not complain after getting what he asked for. “Thank you very much.” He said, bowing his head deeply.
 
Megohime shot a dirty look in Masamune’s direction, but said nothing, Yukimura scowling and clearing his throat. “I’ll keep that in mind.” He said stiffly. “Is there anything else I can do for you before I go?”
