Jaws clenched tight, and brows furrowed together in what seemed to be a permanent scowl on his face, he refused to admit that he was jealous. Because he wasnât, or well... he wasnât ready to admit that he was, in fact.
Jealous of what, exactly? The fact that .. Danni was seemingly fitting well into the Gotei 13 now. It seemed that their efforts to educate and assimilate her into the shinigami masses were starting to work, and she was starting to feel a bit more at ease, and starting to make more friends as well.
It was exactly what he had wanted in the beginning, and what he had promised as well. Not that the journey exactly had been smooth from beginning to end, but it seemed that things were starting to look better. So he had no reason to be jealous, no reason to be throwing this tantrum of his, as if Danni were someone that was now being taken away from him.
Thatâs why it didnât feel right to voice this pettiness of his out loud. For he was happy for her - and who was he to say something to dampen that? It wasnât his right, nor his place to do so. This turmoil inside of his heart was something he had to face by himself, and not drag Danni into.Â
âIâm sorry,â he finally mumbled, brows slowly unraveling back into their normal position. âItâs... nothing. Donât worry âbout it, okay?â his face relaxed as he gives her what he hopes is a passable smile, although he thinks that it might have come out more as a grimace than anything. âLetâs finish eating?â
