You had known Nanami your entire life. The two of you had been close friends once upon a time. But that seemed to end when the two of you became sorcerers. He wanted to keep things professional.

And you did. You respected his wishes. And that's how you spent the majority of your life with him.

You two barely ever spoke to each other outside of work duties. You had lost your best friend; he was nothing but a stranger that happened to work with you.

But you didn't seem to care; especially not when you enjoyed being around him. Even if it was only for work. You didn't mind.

The mission you two had been put on was a particularly difficult one. You had barely even realized just how strong this curse was. Neither one of you had. But you two had defeated it. Together.

Nanami stares at the hand you held out for him to shake. He grabs your hand before he pulls you into a hug, pressing his face into your hair and enjoying the scent of your shampoo.

"I was worried for a second that something would've happened to you." He states, his arms tightening around you slightly.

And in this moment.. he had became your best friend again. Not just some business partner; the old Nanami you met back in school.
