kat8chaItsuki looks up when Kite walks into the bookstore. Davide glances up as well, and Aoi. The atmosphere in the shop is anxious, all three former Rokkaku psychics wound up tighter than a rubber band in an air filtration unit. They'd heard that a ship hosting emissaries from St. Rudolph would be docking that day. St. Rudolph was a religious organization that got a lot of flak, they had questionable recruitment methods and questionable… well. Questionable everything. The only member of Rokkaku who had not felt uncomfortable at the mention of St. Rudolph was Ryou.
And that was because he trusted Atsushi.
"Kite." Itsuki felt a smile flutter across his face. He didn't notice Davide and Aoi's tension go up several levels, nor did he see the glare that they directed Kite behind him. "Did you need something?"
"Itsuki." Kite glanced over Itsuki's shoulder at Davide and Aoi before focusing on Itsuki. Aoi's dislike radiated off of him, practically hissing like cold water hitting a hot pan. "May I speak to you alone?"
Itsuki glanced at Aoi and Davide, his smile dimming and then turning into a frown. Both younger men turned back to what they had been doing although they snuck peeks from the corner of their eye.
"No problem." Itsuki shot Aoi and Davide a disappointed look before leading Kite into the backroom of the bookstore. When they were alone Kite laid his hand on the back of Itsuki's. Itsuki could sense the worry and turned. Kite caught Itsuki 's face with his other hand and kissed him.
The kiss didn't last long at all, not long enough for either of them. Kite and Itsuki separated slowly.
"Itsuki." Kite stroked the side of Itsuki's face. "Can I ask for a favor?"
Itsuki's face was serious when he looked at Kite, but the soft emotions were still there. The connection was just edged faintly with steel. "Is anyone going to die?"
"Not if I can help it." Kite projected sincerity. He knew that Hiyoshi would probably be the first casualty should things go wrong and while he and his cousin did not always get along he did care for Hiyoshi. He wasn't interested in killing anyone from Rikkai, and while he was not friends with St. Rudolph's emissaries he did not wish them harm, although if he was ever offered a hit on Mizuki he would probably take it. "Can you press through the shields of someone through a connection with someone else?"
Itsuki thought about it for a second before he nodded his head. "It might take me some time, but I should be able to do it."
Kite kissed Itsuki again and this one lasted longer. "Then let's do it." Kite whispered against Itsuki's lips when they separated. Itsuki nodded with pink cheeks.
And that was because he trusted Atsushi.
