After Oz had stormed off and I got over my cough attack Aoi sat down next to me. "You guys sure like getting in fights don't you." She gave me a small smile.
"He always starts it" I mumbled.
"Maybe he's right though...Because maybe...you should have..." She trailed off.
"Spit it out!" I snapped a bit to harshly. She shrank away. "Just say it..." I said more softly. She didn't need too. Maybe I should have waited. Its not like it was going anywhere. And our spirit did say it would be dangerous here. But its not like SHE helped me. I sighed and grabbed a bird Oz had cooked for me and nibbled on it.
Me and Aoi sat like that for a while. Aibori,Matoko and Misaki didn't say anything.
Finally I got up slowly. "Im going to try and rinse off my cuts somewhere." I said.
"Oz went down by the lake so I wouldn't go now." Misaki suggested. I smiled.
"I've got an under shirt on." And with that, I slowly walked towards the river.
