'Thoughts'
Parseltongue
Kazuya unlocked the front door. "Come in."
"Thanks." Harry said as he walked into the house.
"Hungry?" He asked once they were both in and the door was shut and locked.
"Yes I am." He said.
"Great. Give me a second." He said as he walked into the kitchen.
"Okay." He said as he looked around the living room.
The walls were a light green with light wood paneling that was half-way up the wall. The floor was carpeting and was a darker shade of green. On one side of the room were two light green couches with blue and green striped pillows. A green armchair in the same shade was nearby. On the wall in front of the couches was a large flat screen t.v that made Harry roll his eyes. Two doors were off two the side. On the other side was a piano and a chess table. Both were white. A door, which Harry knew led to the kitchen, was near them.
On the walls were pictures of Kazuya, his brother, Lin, and himself. He brushed his hands of Kazuya's brother. He really missed him. He wiped his eyes and followed after Kazuya. He leaned against the table.
"Thanks for coming by the way." Kazuya said as he seasoned the meat.
"What?" He looked at the dark haired man in confusion.
"For coming to work for me." He clarified.
"Of course." Harry laughed. "Now that my relatives are in jail, Moldyshorts is gone, and those idiots also in jail, I can be here."
"I'm sorry." He said as he stopped what he was doing and looked at his friend.
Harry sighed and hugged him. "Ollie, I get it. I know why you said what you said. I never took it to heart knowing you were grieving. You wanted to see your brother and since I am a necromancer it's a possibility."
"I should have respected your decision. You said no and I should have respected that." He said into his shoulder.
"You should have but grief can make one do things or say things they normally wouldn't. Summoning him so soon after his death would have done more harm than good. You didn't see it that way but once you calmed down you saw that I was right. You apologized enough." He said.
"I guess." He pulled out of the hug.
"I know so. Anyway weren't you making me food?" The wizard asked hoping to lighten the mood.
Kazuya rolled his eyes. "I am. You only like me for my cooking." He mumbled.
"And yet your not cooking, why?" He asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Brat." He chuckled.
"Thank you." He bowed.
Kazuya shook his head at that. Sometimes he wondered about Harry, he really did. With a sigh he resumed preparing the food.
"Need any help?" Harry asked.
"Sure. Here chop the carrots." He ordered.
"Yes sir." He saluted.
"Thank you." He chuckled.
"You're welcome bossman." He said with a laugh.
Harry removed the ultra thin gloves he wore and exchanged them with a pair of regular non-latex gloves. He carefully cut the carrots and then the tomatoes. The two worked in silence until dinner was in the oven.
"So while we wait tell me about your previous cases." He said.
"You sure?" Kazuya asked cautiously. 'Luckily there was only one case where Lin was hurt and that probably still pisses him off.'
"Yes. Last I heard you were investigating an old temple." He said.
"That turned out to be teens scaring people away so they could do drugs." He said. 'Guess Lin didn't tell him. Harry is going to be very pissed.'
"Of course." He rolled his eyes. "If kids want to rebel so much can they not pick the choice that poisons their body?"
"I know. Their parents weren't pleased." He said.
"I bet." He said.
"After that case we were hired by a headmaster to check out an old school building. There thought it was hunted. Of course when they saw me he hired others as well." He said.
"Of course." He rolled his eyes. "Cause us teens are useless and untrustworthy."
"Yeah. Well before I knew he hired others Lin and I set up our cameras. I left to go research the place. Mai entered the old school building and almost knocked over an expensive camera onto herself. Lin managed to get her out of the way but ended up with the camera smashing into his leg. I took him to the hospital and we learned that his leg was broken." He said.
"What? Why wasn't I informed?" He asked in shock and anger.
"I have no idea. Ask Lin. I thought you knew." He said.
"I plan on it." He said darkly.
"A-anyway after that I made her work for me to make up for breaking Lin's leg and the camera. Later on the headmaster brought in a Shrine Maiden, a Monk, a Priest, and a Medium." He continued.
"Seriously. Please tell me he wasted his money on nothing." The emerald eyed boy pleaded.
"He did. The Shrine Maiden and the Monk believed there were spirits there and tried to exorcise them. The Priest was nervous and not certain there were spirits. He mostly helped Mai and I. The Medium knew there wasn't. The building was sinking. A girl from Mai's school had come in and insisted there were spirits. She just wanted the attention and ended up having ESP. After I was proven correct the Shrine Maiden was all over me." He grumbled.
"I'm sorry. I really hate when people throw themselves on others despite that person not showing any interest. I also hate those older than me treating me like a child." He said.
"I know. The Medium hasn't taken the hint either." He said.
"Sorry." He said.
"Not your fault." He grabbed the food out of the oven.
Harry set the table. "So Mai works for you now?"
"She was a great help especially with Lin not being able to help. She's eager to learn and I feel there is more to her than we know." He said. "I just wish she was less loud."
"I bet." He laughed. "Still not happy Lin didn't tell me." He pouted.
"Sorry. I don't know why he didn't either. Had I known I would have told you." He said.
"I know you would have. I trained you right." He teased.
Kazuya looked at him in amusement. "Trained me?"
"Yup." Harry said as he popped the 'p'.
"Gee thanks." He snorted.
"You're welcome." He said he said with a bright smile.
"Brat." The dark haired psychic shook his head.
"Thank you." He said cheerfully.
That made Kazuya snort again. Harry shot him a smirk before he started to giggle. The other joined in a few minutes later.
"Help me get the food on the table." Kazuya said once he calmed down.
"Okay." Harry said after he finished giggling.
Once the food was on the table they began eating. Harry remembered something Kazuya said.
"What do you mean that there is more to Mai than we know?" He asked.
"I feel like she's one of us. I have yet to see it. No new cases that seem legit have come up so there hasn't been a chance." He explained.
"Oh." That made sense.
"At least she will be more toloratable now that you're here." He said.
"Happy to help." He said cheerfully.
Kazuya shook his head. "I've missed you."
"I missed you too." He smiled.
The rest of the meal was eaten in silence. Once done they cleaned up. Harry went to the spare bedroom. He was asleep the minute his head hit the pillow. Kazuya looked through old photos. They were of his precious people and himself. When he finished looking through them he put them away. He went to go check on Harry. He smiled when he saw Harry cuddling his pillow. The wizard always cuddled with someone or something. After a few seconds he shut the door and went to bed.
