At the hotel

It was a long journey back to the hotel, Kei spent the time sleeping on Kai's shoulder, and Kai spent it on lending his shoulder to her. They were quiet on their way to the hotel room, and when they were in the room. Kai switched on the lights and took off his shoes. He then flung himself onto the bed. "Hey, Kei, if you want, we could leave Malibu and return to Tokyo in case you're worried about that psycho-"

"Don't call him that. Yanderes are not psychos. They are just lovesick, that's all."

"Okay, the yandere. In case you're worried about the yandere hunting you down again, we could go back to Tokyo as early as possible. In fact, we could back right now."

"Well, you don't have to-"

"It's not about that, I'm worried about your safety. Your safety is my top priority. You know that, don't you?"

"Yeah, I do, but what about the hike you wanted to go on so badly?"

"We could always go hiking in Japan."

"That's not the point. You seemed really excited when you said you wanted go on a hike here."

"Um...well...we could always come here next year or so."

"Right."

Kei took off her shoes and sat down on the bed next to Kai. She ran her fingers through his soft, messy black hair. She choked back a sob. It hurt her because although she wanted to go back to Tokyo immediately, she couldn't because she had to consider Kai's feelings too. Although he wouldn't mind much, she still wanted to let him fulfill his wish. She didn't want to be the reason that he'd have to come back here again. She didn't want to go through the same experience all over again, just double the more torturous.

"Kai, believe me, it's okay. We can go on a hike tomorrow and then return to Tokyo. There's so many fun places to visit in Japan as well. Anyway, we can get him arrested later, right?"

"Right....? Kai? Kai!"

Kai's eyes are dreamy, what is he thinking about, wondered Kei. "Kai....am I a bother to you? I'm sorry it's all my fault. If only I never suggested coming to Malibu-"

Kai got up in a flash and kissed her.

"Look, I don't care if you think it's your fault, okay? I'mma kiss you everytime you blame things into yourself even if it's not the case. I don't like seeing you this weak and broken, so I'm going to be the glue that helps hold you together when you know you're gonna break down again. I love you, and I'll die for you if I have to, okay?"

He softly kissed her forehead and made her lie down. He handed her her medicines.

"You can talk to your therapist later tomorrow. I'll contact her and inform her. You need a good rest in my arms for now."
