The sun beat down from above, and beads of sweat streaked my face and cascaded down my face. It was excruciatingly hot outside, but I felt worse for Kuro, he bared a dark shadowy coat of fur and the darker colors attracted more sunlight. Currently, he was perched lazily upon my shoulder. We were walking back from school, it was a terribly long day, then again wasn't everyday terribly long?

Upon arriving at my apartment, Kuro hopped off my shoulder and into the kitchen to grab some ramen. Smiling to myself, I decided to have some too.

Time Skipety~ brought to you by sporks

Kuro and I watched a little bit of TV, and I started to grow tired. Before I knew it, I was leaning against Kuro, my eyes starting to fall. I was just about to fall asleep when a soft snore shook me from my daze. I sat up and directed my gaze to his face. I let out a muffled laugh, and quickly covered my mouth, smiling slightly. He looked so peaceful, I continued to stare at him until I was meh with bright crimson eyes staring back at me. I backed away, slightly shocked.

"Eheheh, sorry...I was um.... inspecting the structure of your face." I laughed nervously.

"How troublesome..." he mumbled, rolling over.

Then a voice murmured something in your head...

Kill Him

What? What's that supposed to mean? Was that really me? Maybe I'm just imagining things..? But... I could've sworn.... I must be tired.

I trudged towards the stairs, taking one last glance at Kuro, but stopped. I turned around, grabbing a soft, fuzzy blanket and placed it over Kuro. Then I turned back around and went up the stairs.

However, when I laid down to sleep, it wouldn't come. Tossing and turning didn't help. All I could think about was that voice... I knew it was probably nothing, but somehow, I couldn't stop thinking about it. But why?? It's probably nothing, right?
