Chapter 19 is here~ I don't own cardfight vangaurd at all.... Sadly Bushiroad does..... Anyway let the chapter start!

The brunette didn't like what the smaller boy had said at all, but he also had no idea what the right words would be that would cheer up the smaller boy.

"Aichi, you've done nothing wrong..."

The blue haired shook his head sadly, obviously not believing the older boy's kind words.

"I've betrayed you... I allowed myself to be taken by someone else...."

Kai smiled sadly, not at all feeling betrayed by the smaller boy. He guessed he would have been upset if he didn't feel remorse but it was clear that Aichi did indeed feel remorse.

"No, I still trust you Aichi... In fact I'm glad you did what you did"

The brunette soothed as he wiped the tears away from the blue haired boy's sightless eyes.

"W-why? Why would you be glad that I did something so..."

Aichi whispered, not believing that the brunette was actually glad. He couldn't imagine any reason as to why he would feel glad unless the brunette didn't actually like him.

"I'm glad because your actions saved you from being killed, I'm just glad that you're safe now"

The smaller boy looked up slowly in surprise at the brunette's words, he hadn't thought of that at all.

"Really?.... Do you actually mean that?"

"Yes, Aichi I know that you're not a bad person so there's no reason to blame yourself"

The smaller boy smiled weekly as he wiped the tears from his eyes.

"Yeah but that still doesn't change that I've done something horrible, alive or not..."

"Aichi, think of it as you survived so that your death won't sadden anyone"

The brunette said, thankful that the smaller boy had at least calmed down somewhat. He didn't blame him for being so sad and confused after everything he had been put through.

"I had forgotten about that..... Thank you Kai"

The smaller boy said with a smile, causing the brunette to smile slightly himself.

"Aichi I'm just glad you're not upset anymore anyway..... Can I ask if anything else happened?"

The brunette was a little concerned as to whether or not his question would make the smaller boy uneasy or not but he still wanted to know.

The smaller boy frowned slightly before responding.

"I think one of them stabbed me in the arm, I didn't actually fall..."

The brunette nodded even though the smaller boy couldn't see.

"I kind of guessed that you didn't fall because if anything your hands or legs would have gotten cut instead"

The smaller boy blushed slightly as he realized the brunette's logic.

"At least I couldn't feel the pain"

Aichi joked lightly, trying to make it so that the brunette wouldn't start worrying about his cut now that he wasn't crying.

"Yeah at least that's another thing to be thankful of.... But how are your injuries from before? You know, the ones that I had to patch up after I slept over"

The brunette noticed that the smaller boy shivered at his question.

"I don't know what happened to them, I kind of just tried to block everything out"

The brunette smiled sympathetically as he figured out what the smaller boy meant.

"Can I check on your injuries to make sure they haven't opened? I don't have to if you don't want me to"

The brunette was concerned about the blue haired boy's injuries but he also didn't want to be too pushy with forcing the smaller boy to show his injuries after what had happened.

The smaller boy was silent for a bit before he nodded.

"Yeah I'm fine, I don't want to get even worse just because I denied help"

The smaller boy whispered softly as he began to remove his baby blue shirt with assistance from the brunette.

The brunette narrowed his jade eyes as he saw the fresh bruises that littered around the smaller boy's already sensitive injuries.

"You've got a lot of bruising around your wounds and the skin around them seems to be close to getting infected"

Kai said, he did his best to dispel all the anger he felt towards the people who had harmed Aichi from his voice.

"I see.... I didn't think it was that bad..."

The smaller boy said, unsure as to how he should react to the news on his injuries.

"It could be worse, your injuries could have already gotten infected. Can I give you some medical treatment?"

The smaller boy nodded at the brunette's request, trusting him to not cause any harm.

"Sure, I don't want to cause anyone anymore worry than I already have..."

The smaller boy sighed before the brunette left to go fetch the first aid kit he had. It was bought initially in case he had a cooking accident, he never expected that he would have to use it on someone, much less his lover.

When the brunette returned to the waiting Aichi, first aid kit at hand he opened it right then and was relieved to see that the medicine hadn't expired.

"Aichi.... We're going to have to open your wounds to allow the disinfectant to clean them, is that okay?"

The brunette asked, he wasn't keen on intentionally hurting the smaller boy but he knew it was the best way to prevent infection.

"Yeah, you also don't have to worry about hurting me because I won't feel a thing"

The brunette grimaced at the lack of thought the smaller boy had put into his response before bringing his attention back towards the smaller boy's injuries that littered the once smooth skin.

"Okay then stretch your arms as far as you can"

The smaller boy nodded before doing as he was told, he felt wetness begin to drop down his chest. The brunette wiped the blood away then began to spray disinfectant into the open cuts.

He then wrapped fresh bandages around the smaller boy's chest so as to stop the blood and to stop anything from entering the wounds.

"Okay I've finished treating your wounds..."

The brunette sighed with relief that he had finished.

"Thanks Kai"

The blue haired boy whispered as he planted a light kiss on the brunette's cheek.
