Chapter 24 is here~ I don't own cardfight vanguard~

The beige haired boy shook his head and shrugged, a sly smile resting upon his face.

"Why would I be selfless? I just wanted to help Aisen.... And maybe explore the caves with other people"

Mizuha replied, causing the cerulean haired boy to frown slightly.

"So you were just basically too afraid to explore the caves on your own....."

The younger boy murmured causing the beige haired boy to smile nervously.

"No, I also wanted to help you"

Ceruleans narrowed slightly before the younger looked away and sighed.

"Whatever you say......"

"How are we going to get back up...."

The brunette's comment startled the two younger boys and snapped their attention towards the hole above them where Aisen had initially fallen through.

"Ah...... Maybe we could use my wheelchair as a boost?"

The cerulean haired boy suggested, the brunette looked at the younger and frowned slightly.

"But how could you get up? Before I carried the wheelchair and Mizuha carried you. But I now have Aichi and neither of us could carry both people"

The older sighed, wondering how all four of them could get back up, it was a little unfortunate that there was no wall they could climb up.

"Maybe if we tie the free end of the rope to the wheelchair, then climb up before we pull the wheelchair and Aisen up"

The brunette nodded at the beige haired boy's suggestion, it could work, it it was also risky and could result in injury.

"...... With my luck I'm going to fall..."

Aisen sighed as he watched his boyfriend begin tying the rope to the handles of his wheelchair.

"That's fine, you'll probably end up unharmed"

Mizuha laughed while the brunette climbed up and out of the hole.

"But I'm scheduled to get out of my wheelchair soon!"

The cerulean haired boy whined as he watched the brunette being up Aichi and then help Mizuha out of the hole.

"A few extra weeks won't hurt you"

".........."

Aisen was silent as he felt himself being pulled upward, he gripped the handles tightly in case the wheelchair flipped, for he was not in the mood to fall on his head.

"Aisen open your eyes, you're up and out of the hole"

The beige haired boy laughed as he patten the younger boy's soft cerulean locks.

"I doubt that Mizuha would have let you fall"

Kai added, guessing that the younger was most likely upset with the beige haired boy due to how insensitive he had acted.

"...... True...... If me falling would have harmed me, I guess Mizuha would have caught me"

"I doubt that he catches you when it's only a small fall"

All three teens jumped at the blue haired boy's comment.

"Oh you're awake"

Kai replied as he let the younger boy down off of his back, relieved that he wasn't unconscious for too long.

"Yeah sorry...... The smell of burning moss always does that to me"

Aichi laughed lightly, confusing the other three.

"Then why did you burn it if it made you pass out?"

The brunette asked, curious as to why the younger would do something so silly.

"Because it warded away insects, the insects down here hurt a lot when they bite....."

Jades narrowed slightly at the blue haired boy, he hadn't seen any insects in the caves since he entered.

"There are no insects"

Aisen sighed, speaking the others thoughts as well as his own.

"They're small and only come out at certain times. I believe they stay in the back of the caves though....."

The younger yawned, causing the brunette to inch a little closer to the boy as they walked, just in case the younger were to fall.

"Then why were you staying in the back of the caves?......"

Mizuha asked.

"I was lost...... You know how many times I've walked in a circle?"

The brunette smirked slightly at his love's comment, remembering how the younger was bad at directions and could easily get lost.

"I don't doubt that...... So Aichi, how are you alive?......"

Sapphires dropped towards the ground at the brunette's comment, causing Kai to feel uneasy.

"I ate weird things and drank the fresh water......."

Jades narrowed at the younger but he said nothing else, he'd ask again once the two were alone together.

Questioning glances made their way from hazel and cerulean orbs towards the brunette but the oldest ignored them. He understood why they were confused for he felt their sane confusion as well.

"I hope none of them were poisonous"

The cerulean haired boy laughed, resulting on Aichi shrugging.

"I hope not, I did my best to avoid brightly coloured creatures, though if any of what I ate was poisonous.... I doubt that I'd be in the world of the living"

Hearing Aichi joke about dying make the brunette feel a little unsettled, the reason was because the younger could have easily died.

"Please don't joke about dying Aichi....."

Sapphires looked up into jades with confusion before melting into understanding.

"Sorry...... I didn't mean to make you upset Kai...."

The blue haired boy whispered softly, the brunette's gaze softened at the genuine apology that the younger had given him.

"It's fine, I just don't like the thought of you dying..... You've been close to death a few times..... And each time scared me more than anything....."

Kai replied softly as he gently embraced the younger boy.

"A-hem! We're still here"

Both Aichi and Kai blushed when they remembered Aisen and Mizuha.

"So cute!"

Aisen laughed, even though he was blushing somewhat himself due to how much Aichi and Kai seemed to care about each other.

"Don't tease them Aisen......"

The beige haired boy sighed.

"When I first met you, you were so docile....."

The brunette murmured, surprised by how audible the cerulean haired boy was.

"Aisen's shy at first, but once you get to know him he's can be loud at times"

The brunette nodded at Mizuha's explanation, it seemed reasonable enough.

"So Kai..... How's my family doing?......"

The brunette raised a brow at the younger's question, he had expected it to come up sooner.

Me: what are you guys' opinion of Aisen and Mizuha?

Aisen: why ask?

Me: cause I'm kind of liking you two

Mizuha: that's cause you made us

Me: that's also why I need to ask >.<

Aisen: you better not kill us off if people don't like us

Me: awwww.....

Mizuha: 0.0 ......

Aisen: .........

Me: hehe jk, anyway hope ya people enjoyed le chappy~
