The familiar demon reached out his hands toward Shuu, and even the brief touch made Shuu feel like he had to lean more into those hands. He wanted to trust that demon and let him take Shuu.
"Hey, take cover. Do not let the demons get to you-"
The loud yelling was almost like background noise for Shuu, distracting him just enough to not fall for the demon's trap, but also not enough to make him fight earnestly.
He felt the other demons taking aim at his back, but he did not mind. He could allow small injuries if it meant figuring out what he was feeling.
But clearly, his intentions were not the same as the demon currently fighting him, because he grabbed Shuu's arm and pulled him even closer. His action came across as almost possessive, and it made Shuu's stomach flip.
'This feels…familiar…'
That was the feeling Shuu had as he felt arms holding him close. His insides were fluttering even more now, and his mouth felt dry. He wanted to speak, but no words escaped his mouth.
