Fear

Suzumura Rei has never seen Saejima Kouga, the GARO warrior, ever afraid.

Until now.

He sees it in the ramrod spine as he sits stiffly in the uncomfortable wooden chair, his face grimacing each time they hear a sound from behind the enclosed door. Seeing fear in the strongest of the Makai Knights was a strange sight to see, let alone contemplate. Oh, Kouga wasn’t hyperventilating, or pacing the floor: he was much too mature to be doing something like that. No, men like Kouga were afraid on the inside, and their pride wouldn’t let them portray fear in any circumstance.

***

Kouga has known fear. It is a sickening, debilitating feeling that gnawed at his gut and made a cold drop of sweat run down the side of his temple. It is a feeling he never wants to feel again.

However, he finds himself clutching the chair’s edge with his hands, clenching them whenever he heard her voice through the wooden door. Though in his mind he knows that the probability of anything going wrong was slim, he also knows that mortality could take her from him at any time.

It reminds him of how fragile she is, despite her loud personality, so different from him.

Another sound from the door has him nearly jumping out of his chair and approaching the door before remembering that he is not supposed to go in. Otherwise he could find himself being kicked out by an irate female who could very well deal with him, in her own way.

“She won’t die, Kouga,” his companion says behind him.

“I know that,” he replies testily, stubbornly hiding his anxiety behind a mask of frowning intimidation. But that doesn’t stop him from feeling strangely helpless, something he doesn’t feel often.

Five minutes seems like an eternity, when he realizes that only five minutes had passed.

He wonders if he had doomed her.

….And I’ll stop there. ^.^ I’m already done with the second half of this two-shot, don’t worry.

The part should be up in a bit. Please comment if you liked it! ^.^ Constructive criticism is always welcome (but, please, no flames).
