Denial

The next two days were busy with preparations as Aseko and his family held a meeting on what to do with the traitors. Eclipse stayed out of it but is not allowed anywhere without some people following him. 

The annoying feeling of someone tailing him, even if he knows that they are doing that for a reason, is too much for him, so he decides to just sit in Aseko's room, occasionally visiting the youngest brother's one. 

Kei stuck by his side even if the others called for her and Eclipse does enjoy her company, just not for her incessant need to ask him how he is and what he might need every two seconds. 

I suppose I understand why Ash was giving me a pitiful look when he left her with me today. Eclipse thought, sprawled on the bed with his limbs stretched out, not a care in the world.
