y/n’s pov
I laid in my bed left speechless by this incredible afternoon that keeps playing back in my head. Who would have thought I'd feel so comfortable talking to a total stranger, let alone a mermaid? It's just unbelievable to think that there's a whole sea world hidden underneath. My 7 year old self who pretended to be a mermaid would be delighted to hear that! What surprised me even more was how natural the conversation between us seemed. 
I toss and turn in my bed, squishing my pillow as hard as I can, replaying the day's events until I realize that I may have looked quite silly asking so many personal questions. As I thought about it, I covered my face with my hands blushing with embarrassment. Ugh, I can be extra sometimes!
He needs to see that I'm someone he can trust and that humans can be friendly too. What about bringing things like pictures or even snacks? That would be an excellent way to introduce myself and let him know what humans are all about. I could even show him some of my favorite songs or a couple of my drawings. I'm certain mermaids know everything about these things.
 _____
Today's the day I'm meeting Yuji again! I'm both nervous and excited. It feels strange not to be alone in this place anymore. However, that might not be such a bad thing. Yuji seems like a really nice guy and he also showed enough faith in me to reveal his true identity, even though it meant that he might end up in trouble. We haven't really known each other for a long time, but it's good to know that he's willing to trust me. Besides, it'll be refreshing to talk with someone new, maybe discuss things we have in common, or discover new perspectives and opinions.
I finally reached the rock and saw Yuji sitting there, staring into the distance. He seemed to be absorbed by the view. I was in the middle of tidying up my boat when he turned his head and greeted me.
"Hi y/n!" he said in a friendly tone.
"Hi Yuji!" I walked over and sat down next to him, gently placing my bag next to me.
"I brought some things to show you so we can get to know each other better. It'll give me a chance to explain what the surface world looks like."
He raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "Oh? What do you have here?"
I opened my bag and took out some pictures first, handing them to him. 
"What could be better than a visual to introduce you to who I am, where I live, or the people I like!"
Yuji's eyes looked attentively at the polaroids I took out one by one. He picked up the first one, a smile lighting up his face. He delicately manipulated the edges of the picture, trying to feel and understand the texture he was touching. As soon as his experiment is over, he stares carefully at the picture of Lyana and me, his eyes trying to figure out who might be appearing on it. I can't help but blush, he is so adorable.
"That's Lyana, my best friend and greatest confident, I tell her almost everything. We've been friends since 6th grade."
Yuji looked confused. Of course he was! I guess they don't have the same kind of school system as we do. Do they even have one?
"Grades are our different school levels. To help you understand, I was between 11 and 12 years old in this photo." 
"Oh, I see, that's the equivalent of Korallion."
"Korallion?"
Yuji hands the Polaroid back to me, stretches his hands out in front of him, and seems to be concentrating. Several drops of water gradually materialize, floating in the air until they take the form of a bubble in the palm of his hand. The bubble then splits into three, each taking the shape of what seems to be three mermaids of different sizes and ages. I was in awe at the sight of the scene unfolding in front of my eyes. He can control water! He moved his hands slightly in my direction so I could focus on what he’s showing me.
"Korallion is one of the three classes for mermaids, between the Conkylia and the Crystallis class. We start learning at an early age until we reach the Crystal Age, which is when a mermaid officially becomes an adult and can contribute to the kingdom."
This question may offend him, but I need to know more. Ancient legends don't mention the life cycle of mermaids. 
"Forgive me for asking, but how old are you anyway?"
He cleared his throat.
"Um, this may come as a surprise to you, but I'm 110 years old, which is the equivalent of 20 years for humans so that makes me an adult mermaid. We do have a long life span."
Well, he's quite preserved for someone who's a hundred years old. I could kick the bucket before he even reaches his forties in our time! It's a little depressing when I think about it.
"Oh yes I see you're like the blue aliens from Avatar you know." I chuckled.
There was a moment of silence. Yuji looked at me confused. I'm such an idiot of course he didn't get the reference. Well done, y/n.
"I should show it to you sometime, it's a reference to a film where some of the characters age veeeery slowly."
"I have no idea what a film is. Could you show it to me one day?"
Phew, he's not offended, at least I know a little bit more about him!
"Absolutely, it's a three-hour film so it's quite a commitment, but it's really worth it and so enjoyable to watch!"
It sounds like Yuji enjoys learning about my world. He even hinted at wanting to meet up again in the future, which makes me happy. I shifted my attention back to the use of his power. The sight of him manipulating water with such ease was truly impressive to me.
"I had no idea mermaids possessed powers! How did you come by this ability?"
"Not all mermaids possess powers, but those who do often come from royal families. These families have inherited the gifts of the sea goddess Mayeliis, passing them down through generations. There are exceptions, however, with some mermaids being directly blessed by the Goddess herself." he explains, using the water in his hands to showcase his point.
A picture (made of water) is worth a thousand words indeed.
"Tell me if I'm overstepping with my questions, but are you from one of those families?"
Yuji took a moment to gather his thoughts before answering my question. 
"I am the Crown Prince of the Kingdom of Venola, and my family has the special ability to manipulate water in many ways. We can shape it and even use it as a weapon. We also have the power to restore its flow and help the ocean regulate itself."
"Wow, that's amazing."
"Not only that, we also have the ability to master all states of water, whether it's icy or steamy. In a sense, we can control ice, for example."
With a sweep of his hand, he reveals the water cascading down his arm, turning into a vaporous mist and then into tiny flakes of ice in the space of a second. I stare at him dumbfounded. Yuji's control over the water is truly mesmerizing. It's like something out of a fairy tale. I’m truly amazed by his abilities.
"I only ‘see' things like this in the stories we tell ourselves as children or in books we read. Is water the only element that royal families can control?"
As Yuji starts playing with the water again, the impressive figure of a woman with extremely long wavy hair, covered in coral armor, a headpiece, and a massive trident in one hand comes into view.
"Hang on, it's going to be a long story!" he says jokingly.
"When the goddess Mayeliis breathed her last during the Ocean War, she divided her powers into 5 great gifts, which found their way into the bodies of 5 mermaids, each from one of the 5 oceans. Since then, these gifts have been passed on for the greater good of the world's harmony."
I nod, signaling him that I'm ready to hear the rest of the story. Yuji sculpts in the water five different silhouettes of mermaids.
"There are 5 great royal families, the Oceanics. They all complement each other to maintain the harmony of our world. Each of them rules over one of the oceans on the planet, and each family has its own gift. My family rules over the Atlantic Ocean." 
He says as he shows me the first figure of a mermaid. He continues.
"My family is quite serious and devoted to the people and the goddess. They seek her devotion and protection at all costs through various arrangements and decisions, even if it may hurt one of their own."
An inch of sadness falls over his face. I'm not going to pick up on that comment, if he wants to talk to me about it, he'll do it when he feels the need to. He carries on.
"Then there's the Indian Ocean family. They specialize in plants and corals. They manipulate our underwater ecosystem. Basically, they give life and make up the whole of it. Knowing what they know about plants has led them to create a majority of the realm’s potions and natural cures."
He shows me a mermaid manipulating ivy growing on their arms, surrounded by all sorts of plants.
"They can be considered healers endowed with science and great wisdom, we would be nothing without them."
"It is somehow thanks to them that we humans can enjoy what's under the water." I replied.
"Exactly, we all complement and rely on each other."
He pauses for a moment and forms two identical figures in the water, seemingly facing each other.
"The families of the Arctic and the Antarctic Ocean are direct descendants of two twin warrior sisters who were granted their abilities at the exact same moment. Members of the Arctic family are controllers of light and are able to create illusions and even alter its speed, creating tiny time fragments in the process. They live close to the surface and are protectors of the high coastal areas of the planet. These mermaids use a variety of charm spells to fulfill their own desires and torment surface explorers." 
He portrays one sister above the surface and the other below, each reaching out to grasp the other's hand.
"The deeper waters are home to the Antarctic family. They are the guardians of the lower world's shores and control a certain amount of forbidden magic. They are tenacious and have control over the monsters of the abyss, which makes them great allies. These two families are somewhat rivals, each having their own role to play and finding it difficult to explore each other's worlds."
"That's sad, I can't imagine the weight of the responsibility that those two sisters must be carrying."
With a compassionate smile, Yuji finally unveils the last family, represented by a figure that looked almost ethereal to me.
"As you can see, this is the Pacific Ocean family, powerful magicians who are closely connected to the goddess due to the divinatory nature of their magic. They are pacifists by nature, controlling sea creatures, performing miraculous healings, 'predicting' the future, or at least making prophecies. The goddess herself chose this family and made them the most powerful. Although they lack the art of combat and defense, they rely on all the other families to protect them."
He ceased playing with the water, signaling that his explanation was now finished.
"The history of your world is incredibly rich and magical. I really appreciate you sharing it with me."
"I am glad to have taught you a little bit more, haha." He grabbed the pictures we had left earlier. "Let's pick up where we left off, I want to know more about you."
As he hands me the pile of pictures, I immediately notice the first one features my parents and our home. Using my finger, I guide him, pointing out its details.
"This is my house, the front porch, to be specific."
"And this is your family?" Yuji asks, pointing to the faces smiling at the camera.
"Exactly, there's my dad fixing the door, and next to him, my mom is bursting out laughing as she sees him struggling with it." I explain. "I was laughing so hard behind the camera, that's why the photo seems to be poorly framed and kind of blurred."
He continued to look at the pile of pictures, each one revealing a new fragment of my personal life: grandpa and grandma's house, walks on the beach, amusement park days, pictures taken at university or even with friends.
Time seemed to stand still as the sun began to set. We ended the evening laughing out loud after exchanging funny stories about our personal lives... as well as eating a good portion of my crisps and sweets that ‘accidentally’ disappeared from their packets. Yuji didn't know what they were but really enjoyed eating them. He'll probably wake up tomorrow with a terrible stomachache, poor guy.
A beautiful friendship begins to blossom in this special place and will for sure continue to grow even more.
—------
Our meetings with Yuji are going so well that we are seeing each other at least three or sometimes four times a week in order to avoid raising suspicions on either of our sides. The days are flying by, and we have been spending our summer together on the rock for two months now, chatting, playing, and discovering new things about each other. Time flies when you're having fun!
He's incredibly attentive, funny, charming, and caring. The end of each day we spend together breaks my heart out, wishing we could go on like this forever. I can't quite put it into words, but I feel a strong bond between us, like we’ve known each other for a long time. He makes me laugh out loud, I blush when our shoulders slightly touch, I think about him every night, and he's even been there for me on my hardest days.
"y/n, are you still here?"
My focus is back on our video call with Lyana. I must have been zoning out for quite a long time.
"You look kind of preoccupied cutie. What's got you so distracted lately? Do you want to tell me about it?"
I smiled unconsciously at her comment, imagining Yuji's face appearing in my mind.
"Well ladies and gentlemen, we have officially lost Miss y/n!"
"Sorry, Lyana, I'm a bit... confused right now." I say, tossing in my bed.
"Do you want to tell me about it?" 
I signaled her to wait and locked my door in case one of my parents returned earlier from work.
"Where do I begin?"
I heard Lyana gasp. "That sounds like a huge gossip session I'm all ears!"
"You do know that the rock is my favorite place, my little escape, all of that."
"Mmh yes."
"Well, I'm no longer the only one who frequents it...and that has been the case for 2 months now."
Lyana's eyes widen as she gives me her sly little look, waiting for me to continue.
"Um, there's this boy, his name is Yuji. I met him ‘accidentally’ when we were at the rock, and since then we have spent most of our time together."
"I KNEW IT! Every time you fall in love with someone, your eyes sparkle and your mind always gets distracted!" she says excitedly. “That's why I haven't seen you as usual this summer!"
"LYANA!!! I'm not in love... I'm just a little attached to him, I think."
"You are the absolute worst at lying. It's almost like fate brought you guys together at this same exact moment!"
I may have been a little too eager in the first few days, but I like to think that fate actually did me a favor. It's like I finally found the person I was hoping for in a way.
"I'm pretty confused about my feelings. Sometimes I feel like I'm imagining that he might feel the same way because he has reactions that only people who are interested in someone have. And then, in a way, I have the feeling that I'm just being seen as a good friend he can rely on."
"Mmh, are there any unexpected situations where you've felt a certain connection?"
I took the time to put together all of the moments in which I thought I was delulu. Oh... OH...
"I don't know if you'd call it bonding, but we lie on top of each other all the time, we tease ourselves a lot, especially when we're out there catching each other in the water, we also found ourselves pretty stuck to each other when he managed to catch me, and we didn't let go for a couple of minutes."
Lyana is now using a detective hat filter, which could be used in the video call.
"You are so silly Lyana." I said, laughing.
"After everything you just told me, you don't think he's interested in you? Considering that you've been hanging out on the rock, you must have told him a lot of personal stuff, so he must have told you things about himself too. Add to that your physical closeness, nah, there's definitely something going on." She seems to be connecting non-existent dots on an invisible board like a police investigator.
She knows me so well…
"Ugh! I'm tired of you reading me like an open book! But I don't know if you're completely right, yesterday he suddenly left in the middle of our conversation. I've spent the last 24 hours trying to figure out what I could have done or said wrong."
"Hang on, he must have had something to do at home? Don't panic so fast."
"I don't know Lyana, we were talking about his life and where he lives. I mentioned that I've always dreamed of visiting it, and suddenly he has something to do! It's been on my mind ever since he told me to meet him tomorrow!"
"I sincerely believe that he does not have anything against you, he must have a good reason, like I told you. Meet him tomorrow and see what he has to say! I'm sure everything will be fine! He seems to enjoy your presence a lot, from what you tell me."
"You're right, I'll take your advice." I'll definitely think about it all night.
"C'mon, you can do it! And keep me updated!"
"I will! Love you!"
I end the call and head for a quick shower to relax, hoping the water will get these fears out of my mind.
_____
As planned, we met on the spot the next day. I can't help but wonder what Yuji is up to, to leave so abruptly. Speaking of him, there he is coming out of the water, a seashell around his waist that seems to be used as a bag.
I'll never complain about this sight, it's almost... hypnotic.
"Hi y/n! Sorry for leaving you again, but you'll see, it's worth it." he says, winking at me.
I snapped out of my bubble and looked at him intrigued as I sat down next to him. Perhaps Lyana was right, it probably wasn't as bad as I made it seem.
"You're reassuring and worrying me at the same time."
He chuckled. "Don't worry, I think you'll like this little surprise."
"A surprise? Oh, that's adorable! What could it be?"
He looked at me with a blushing face as he took out a bright green and blue plant from his seashell bag.
"It's a Fleeyan, a plant that only royal families can grow. It has many benefits, such as healing wounds or even some diseases, but it's also used by our oldest mermaids to help them breathe underwater."
Is this really what I think it is? It can't be!
"I know you've enjoyed all my stories about the mermaid realm and the books I've brought to you before. I thought this would be a good opportunity to show you what my world is really like using this plant."
I immediately threw myself on him and took him in my arms. It's a gesture that warms my heart, I've never been so emotionally moved by anyone before. I'll cherish this gesture for the rest of my life as it shows that Yuji trusts me completely and offers me a wonderful chance to get to know him better. I can't pull myself away from him, from the warmth he exudes. He deepens the hug by stroking my back. We stayed like this for a few minutes until I let go.
"I don't know what to say, it's an honor. Thank you from the bottom of my heart."
"I'm glad you like it, sincerely."
I could grab his face with both hands and kiss him right now. I snapped out of my thoughts when I realized that Yuji was talking to me.
"Sorry, I'm still processing the exciting news."
"No worries, I was explaining that the plant might be similar to seaweed in terms of taste. It won't be the best culinary experience of your life, especially compared to the crisps and sweets we shared together, but it's not unpleasant either."
"Oh, please, I'd even eat dirt just for all the things you've done for me!" 
He looked at me tenderly and handed me the plant.
"Are you ready?"
"More than ready!" I took the plant from his hands and ate it whole.
It certainly wasn't very tasty, but I had expected something much worse... I couldn't help but flinch when the acidity of the plant hit my tongue. I swallowed the 'delicious' dish and waited for any reaction it might provoke. 
"Am I supposed to go through a transformation that involves smoke, glitter, or even flying in the air?"
Yuji burst out laughing.  "How creative you humans are!" He went on. "All you have to do is jump into the water and see for yourself. I'll be right by your side don't worry."
As he dove into the water, I gathered my strength and stood up, filled with both excitement and fear, as I mentally prep myself to visit Yuji's world. The ocean sparkles, reflecting the blue sky beautifully. A soft sea-scented breeze caresses my skin and the tip of my nose. I don't care if I come back completely soaked, I'll say I was pushed into the water!
I took a deep breath and dipped in with my eyes closed, letting my body sink into the cold water. I opened my eyes again and subconsciously held my breath, fearing that I'd suddenly drown. Yuji immediately calmed me down with a sign of his hand and told me to relax. 
Wow! I can't believe I'm able to breathe underwater! 
I smile, relieved that the power of the plant has worked. Yuji looks pleased and motions to follow him. I nod back and start swimming alongside him. 
He starts swimming faster, overtaking me as I try to keep up, following him like an inchworm. He turned around, laughing at the sight of me struggling, and came back to me. He intertwined his hand with mine and gently led me into the depths of the ocean. The gesture was so delicate that I mentally giggled. I stare at the hypnotic movement of his siren's tail, it’s so pretty.
The deep waters were quite frightening. A couple of fish swam in front of us, while a few corals could be seen in the distance, with no sign of an underwater world in sight. Unconsciously, I tightened my grip on Yuji's hand in fear. He gently stroked it with a simple gesture of his thumb, which both calmed me and sent shivers down my spine. 
We continued swimming until we stopped in front of a stretch of long thick leaves. Yuji removed his hand from mine and pushed some leaves aside, revealing a colorful city bustling with life. He takes me by the waist and pushes me to the side for a moment, staring at my legs. I knew immediately what this meant. 
"How can I cover my legs?"
"You'll have to hide behind me for a few moments, I'll do my best to take the paths that have the least amount of exposure for you."
"Do people recognize you a lot in the city since you're... you know, a prince?"
"Don't worry, I know a couple of shortcuts. Are you ready?"
"Are you sure that you would be safe if someone saw you with me? What will they think?"
"They'll see I'm in excellent company. Don't worry."
The comment makes me want to scream.
"Come on, let's go!" he said, taking one of my hands.
I cling to his shoulders, trying to hide my legs by matching the rhythm of his tail, which is quite tricky. Yuji enters the city and hides discreetly behind what seemed to be billboards or plants. The city is shimmering, the buildings are built in the shape of shells and corals, and there are lots of colored sea creatures and mermaids swimming around. The brightly colored plants and long seaweed sway like ribbons, creating the perfect accessories for the mermaids I've spotted. 
Yuji grabbed a long piece of seaweed and hid me behind a building.
"No one's seen us yet, but we'll have to be more and more discreet when we get to the garden."
"The garden?"
"I'd like to show you my second secret place."
"What if we run into your parents? Your friends? I wouldn't want to put you in danger!"
"Trust me, I'm the guide here." He said it with a cocky smile.
He took the words out of my mouth.
"Come on, I'll wrap this around your legs so we can pretend it's a fashionable mermaid tail to go with your t-shirt."
I laughed at his comment and let him cover me with a long piece of seaweed. 
"There you go! A beautiful mermaid!" he said.
I mean, from a distance, people could think that maybe I'm a mermaid. The only problem was that I couldn't really move my legs, and I felt my body sinking to the ground.
"Yuji, um, we're going to have a bit of a problem; I can't swim!!!"
He quickly took my arms and wrapped them around his neck.
"You can rest easier like this."
My face must be as red as a tomato because our faces were only a few centimeters apart. His side profile is just so beautiful, sculpted to perfection. 
Yuji started swimming again while I tried to concentrate on the scenery that unfolded in front of me. Mermaids seem to enjoy life just as much as humans do. They work, wander around, and hang out in town to shop. It's quite funny to see them doing the same things as us. I hadn't really expected that from the legends I'd read.
We are slowly making our way out of town when we see a huge castle in the distance, isolated from the city’s noise. The castle is made of shiny shells and corals. At the top of the structure sits a white sphere covered in what appear to be diamond stones, illuminating the surrounding area as if it symbolized the heart of the kingdom. The structure is impressive, I can't even imagine what's inside. 
Getting closer and closer, we hid for a moment behind the bushes in front of one of the gates. Yuji gently set me down on the ground as my legs were completely useless wrapped in this seaweed. I guess he's trying to get around the area unnoticed. The upper floors are watched over by numerous guards. 
"Shit, I didn't think there would be so much security today."
He ponders for a long moment while I take a look at the situation.
A dark-haired mermaid dressed in a different metallic gray uniform approached the guards and seemed to be talking to them. The guards immediately moved from their posts to another gate. 
"It's all right, you can come out now." a voice said.
Yuji quickly came out of the bushes as I tried to hold him down. Maybe he's being tricked by his parents? He explained to me once how overprotective they are and how much pressure they put on him. He often leaves the castle, which is not good for his situation.
He looked at me with a sympathetic smile. "Don't worry, I know him."
Yuji picks me up again and starts swimming towards the mystery man.
"Megumi! What would I do without you?"
That's the legendary Megumi he's been telling me about! He's one of his most trusted and reliable friends. Now I understand why he didn't seem worried at all.
"Absolutely nothing, come on we'll greet each other properly when we get to the garden."
Yuji happily followed Megumi.
We swam past some of the entrances of the castle and came to a high, flowering bush. Megumi patted it until a metallic sound was heard and a door made of plants opened by itself. Wow, it's really well hidden.
Megumi stood in front of it and held the door open for us. I mumbled a small thank you to him as we entered. We found ourselves surrounded by flowers I'd never seen before, each one more beautiful than another. The garden seemed to be a peaceful place. A small table and a few chairs had been placed in the middle, while a small bookshelf filled with objects and books was set to one side.
Yuji settled me on one of the chairs, slightly untying the seaweed around my legs.
"Thank you so much. It feels good to loosen this up!"
"You're welcome, you'll be more comfortable this way, let me know if you need anything, I suppose we have things equivalent to humans."
Megumi cleared his throat.
"Well, it's nice to be in your company, lovebirds."
We stopped our conversation, faces flushed with awkwardness as we apologized to him.
Yuji regained composure. "I'd like to introduce you to Megumi and my second secret place, but you already know a lot about it."
Megumi seemed to be taken aback by this comment. "She knows a lot about the realm?"
I giggled. "Ahaha, yes, nice to meet you! I've heard so much about you and this place, I'm so happy to finally get to know you!" I held out my hand to greet him.
He greets me back and blushes as he runs his hand through his hair. My comment must have been a bit of a shock to him, hopefully positively.
"So, where do I start? I have so many things to show you!" Yuji said excitedly as he picked up some books, while Megumi sat down next to me.
"Is he always so full of energy?" I asked
"He usually is, but this time he's a lot more enthusiastic than usual." says Megumi
Yuji joined us and placed the books on the table, along with an assortment of flowers and objects.
"This is my favorite collection of little treasures that I collect on my walks." exclaims Yuji
There were shells, beads, bottle caps, and fragments of corals. Each of them seemed to have a story to tell.
"Wow, I've never seen these shells before; they're beautiful!" I glance towards the bottlecaps. "Oh, the bottlecaps! I've got plenty of them at home, I could bring you some next time I see you."
"That would be wonderful! Thank you!" I smiled at him and turned my head towards Megumi.
"Megumi, do you know anything about the human world? Would you like me to give Yuji something he could bring you?"
Megumi looked surprised, he seemed to be considering my offer for a moment.
"You should bring him your crisps! I'm still thinking about how good they are!" said Yuji.
"What are they?" asked Megumi.
"They're human treats, I could send you some!" 
"Do you think you could also bring me those little boats you see in the glass bottles? Just asking you know." 
He's adorable!
"Of course, Megumi, I would love to, I'll give them to Yuji."
"Thanks, that's nice of you."
Yuji started telling Megumi about all the things he had discovered on the surface. He seemed caught up in the conversation and asked us lots of questions. We then went to the flowers in the garden, where I learned a lot about the varieties growing in the ocean!
Time passed incredibly quickly until we noticed that it was getting darker and darker. The landscape is now lit up by the neon hues coming from plants, fishes, and Megumi and Yuji's mermaid tails. It's a feast for the eyes, believe me.
"I'd better get you back to the rock, it won't be long before it gets dark on the surface." says Yuji.
I nod as he puts me around his shoulders again. Then I turn to Megumi.
"It was great talking to you, I'll get you everything you asked for as soon as possible, I promise!"
"Thank you, I'm glad you had a good time with us."
Yuji and I both waved goodbye to Megumi and left the garden, heading for the city’s gates. We laughed and chatted on the way back, still clinging to his shoulders. 
"Megumi is lovely, thank you so much for letting me meet him and introducing me to your world."
"I'm so glad you get along so well, Megumi isn't the type to talk so much to people he doesn't know."
What an honor! This means that I made a good impression. I can be proud of myself!
We were on our way out of the city, approaching the large leaves that hid the kingdom of Venola, when we suddenly heard someone calling out Yuji's name in the distance. He quickly hid me behind some rocks on a small cliff while he searched for the origin of the voice. I decided to take a small step forward and remove the seaweed covering my legs. God, it feels so good to move them again!
"Yuji! Wait!" shouted the voice.
I tried to slightly lift my head up to see what was happening. Yuji was up high when a mermaid woman approached him. All I could distinguish in the dark was her neon purple tail, decorated with coral and spikes on one of her forearms and around her waist.
"Malone?"
"How lucky I am to run into you, I have been looking for you all over the castle!"
"What's the matter?"
She seemed suddenly hesitant.
"I was sent by my parents... about our arrangement."
Yuji's face looked confused. What did she mean by an arrangement? I had a bad feeling about it.
"I see... did my parents fail to warn me about something?"
The girl looked at him sadly.
"I thought you knew. Our engagement is set for the end of the summer."
Our what? End of the summer?

HEAVEN
Tumblr media
pairing : geto suguru x fem reader.
cw : confession, fluff, kissing.
synopsis : After meeting you in Europe, Suguru had begun to develop feelings for you, but didn't dare say them, for fear of spoiling everything.
jjk alternate universe : no jujutsu sorcerers, everyone is human.
disclaimer : This is a spinoff from my fanfiction: the irony of fate (sukuna x reader).
word count : 2.4k
Tumblr media
While he was smoking on his balcony, Suguru's phone began to ring, and he saw Gojo's name on the screen. They had become quite close since the party, and although they were very different, they found great comfort in each other.
It wasn't often that Gojo called him without any reason, so it piqued Suguru's curiosity. He took the phone and answered the call, his voice slightly raspy as he brought the phone to his ear.
"Hey, Gojo. What's up?"
"Hey man, am I bothering you?" He asks, escaping a slight yawn.
Suguru chuckled, a smirk tugging at the corners of his mouth as he leaned back against the wall behind him. "Nah, man. You're not bothering me."
He takes a deep hit of the blunt, exhaling a cloud of smoke before continuing the conversation. "What's up, dude? You sound tired," he teased, a playful tone in his voice.
"I didn't get much sleep yesterday, but I'll tell you about it another time." Gojo pause "I wanted to tell you I was leaving."
A slight surprise registered on Suguru's face. "Leaving?" He repeated, his gaze shifting as his brows furrowed.
He takes another hit of the blunt, the smoke dancing in the air as he exhaled. "Where are you heading to, man? Everything alright?" Concern laced his tone, mixed with a hint of curiosity.
"Yeah don't worry, I'm off to the States with Sukuna for work, I'll be there for three months." Gojo said in a breath. "I wanted to warn you so you don't worry, we'll call each other anyway!"
A mixture of surprise and annoyance flashed across his features, though they quickly settled into a smirk. "Three months, huh? You're ditching me here for such a long time?"
"I have no choice unfortunately, luckily you have y/n, otherwise you would have collapsed in sadness." Gojo says with a laugh.
A pang of guilt washed over Suguru's expression as Gojo mentioned your name. The truth was, he hadn't confessed his feelings to you yet, and he wasn't even sure if you felt the same way about him.
He let out a heavy sigh, the blunt hanging between his fingers. "Yeah, yeah. I have y/n. But she’ll go back to europe in five days, actually." He tried to keep his voice nonchalant, concealing the turmoil of emotions within him.
Gojo raised an eyebrow at Suguru's response, sensing his friend's inner turmoil beneath the surface of his nonchalant attitude.
"Five days, huh? That doesn't give you much time to make a move." He says, surprised. "So, what's holding you back? You've always been too damn hesitant."
Suguru’s gaze narrowed, a mixture of annoyance and embarrassment coloring his expression. "You don't have to point it out like that, smartass."
He took a deep breath, his shoulders slumping as he exhaled. "I just... I don't want to mess things up, you know? We've been friends for so long. I don't want to ruin it by confessing my feelings and making things awkward between us."
Gojo rolled his eyes in response to Suguru’s annoyance, shaking his head in frustration.
"Ugh, you’re always so serious. You have to take risks sometimes, man. Confessing your feelings might lead to something amazing, or it might end in a disaster. But at least then you’ll know."
"But if you’re too scared to make a move, then you’ll be stuck in this damn limbo forever, and she’ll just leave."
Suguru’s annoyance turned to frustration as Gojo's words hit a nerve. He knew deep down that his friend was right, that he couldn't keep hiding his feelings forever. But fear held him back, fear of ruining the friendship he treasured.
"I'm not scared, okay? It's just... it's not that simple." He grumbled, his irritation seeping through his words.
Gojo chuckled, amused by his friend’s defensiveness.
"Right, sure you’re not. Because spending a year pining over someone and doing nothing about it is a sign of a brave badass." He retorted, rolling his eyes again.
"You’re scared, Geto. Don’t try to deny it."
Suguru’s eyes darkened as Gojo called him out on his cowardice. His pride flared up, but deep down, he knew his friend was right. He was scared.
He answered Gojo, his expression hardening. "Fine. You win. I'm scared. Happy now?"
He took a deep breath, running a hand through his hair in frustration. "Anyway, i should get ready for work."
Gojo suppressed a smirk, knowing he had finally gotten through to his stubborn friend. "Finally, he admits it. Took you long enough."
"Yeah, you better get going. And maybe you should think about manning up and confessing your feelings while you’re at it." He added teasingly, a smirk playing on his lips.
Suguru’s expression shifted from one of frustration to resignation, knowing that Gojo had a point. But his pride wouldn’t allow him to admit it just yet.
"Yeah, yeah. Screw you, man." He retorted, but the anger in his voice was half-hearted.
He took a final hit of the blunt before putting it out, the smoke wisping away into the air. "I'll think about it, alright? No promises though."
~
His shift was finally over, but it had been an eventful night, since he'd had to tell his two best friends that Gojo and Sukuna had left, breaking their hearts.
But seeing his best friend's face so sad and hurt, he realized he couldn't risk putting you through the same thing. He had to confess his feelings as soon as possible, before it was too late.
So he quickly pulled out his phone and sent you a message, taking advantage of his burst of courage.
[Suguru] : Are you awake? I need to see you.
[y/n] : I was just answering some e-mails, come to my hotel, it would be good to see you.
Without wasting a minute, he jumped into his car and started the engine with a loud roar, he didn't have a minute to lose.
~
Arriving in front of your hotel room, he took a minute to concentrate on his breathing; everything was going to change tonight, for better or worse.
He plucked up courage and knocked on the door. He couldn't help smiling at the sight of you there, lit only by the soft moonlight streaming in through the window.
"Hey you! Come in I made us some tea, you must be exhausted." You say as you take his coat, smiling warmly.
As he stepped into the room, the scent of chamomile tea filled the air, and his gaze landed on your smile. It was a familiar scene, one that they had experienced countless times before.
He took a seat at the small table where the tea was laid out, his eyes not leaving your face as he tried to gather his thoughts. "Thanks," he mumbled, his voice softer than usual.
A silence settled between the two of you, the only sound was the faint whistle of the night air outside.
"Why did you want to see me at this hour? Is something wrong?" You ask as you sit down beside him, your tone slightly concerned.
His fingers traced the rim of the teacup, his gaze cast down. He took a deep breath, steeling himself for what he was about to say.
"No, nothing's wrong." He paused, his voice coming out more strained than usual. "I just... I needed to talk to you about something important."
"You're scaring me, you look like you've seen a ghost!" You laugh to try and lighten the mood, definitely noticing something different in Suguru's aura.
His lips tugged up into a faint smile at your attempt to loosen the tension. But his expression quickly turned serious again as he met your gaze.
"It's just... I have something I need to tell you. Something I should have told you a long time ago." He paused, his voice quiet and almost hesitant.
Your eyes widened at his words, what could it be? He seemed really shaken, so you looked at him in silence, inviting him to continue.
Geto's heart thudded against his chest, the weight of his confession hanging heavy in the air. He took another deep breath, his gaze fixed on the cup in front of him as he struggled to find the right words.
"I... I've been holding onto this for a long time. And I keep telling myself that I'll tell you someday, but I never did." He paused, his eyes slowly lifting to meet yours.
When your eyes meet, you feel your heart racing, as it always does for some unknown reason.
The look in your eyes was enough to send his heart racing even more, his own gaze holding yours for a few moments longer than necessary.
He swallowed hard, his throat suddenly dry. "I've been an idiot, a coward. But I can't keep hiding it anymore. I... I care about you, y/n. More than I've let myself admit."
"I care a lot about you too, Suguru, I always have." You say with a gentle smile, clearly not understanding what he's getting at.
His heart skipped a beat as you spoke, the words sending a mix of hope and pain surging through him.
"No, I mean," He shook his head gently, trying to gather his thoughts. "I more than just care about you, y/n. I... I'm in love with you."
You were too surprised to say anything, everything had become confused in your head, your gaze still locked in his, nothing could come out of your mouth.
The silence that followed was painful, each second feeling like an eternity as he waited for your response. He could see the surprise in your eyes, the confusion etched on your face.
"Say something, please," he whispered, his voice breaking slightly. "Anything."
Your mouth parted, but no sound escaped. You felt your heart speed up so much you swear it could have exploded. So he'd been feeling the same way...all this time?
"Suguru..." Was all you could whisper, still in shock.
His heart thudded in his chest as he heard his name leaving your lips, his breath catching in his throat. In all the scenarios he had played in his head, this moment was both better and worse than any of them.
He slowly reached out, his hand gently taking yours, as if anchoring himself to you. "I know it's a lot to process," he murmured. "But you had to know, I couldn't hide it anymore."
Then the silence intensified for long minutes.
"I think I love you too, Suguru."
Those few whispered words felt like a shockwave through his heart, a mixture of relief and disbelief washing over him. He couldn't believe what he was hearing.
His eyes widened, and he gently squeezed your hand, as if he needed a physical reminder that this was real. "You... you do?"
"I do. Since the day our eyes met for the first time." Your eyes begin to glow, no longer able to contain your powerful emotions.
He felt his heart swell with a flood of emotions as your words sunk in, his eyes locking with yours, mirroring your glow.
He couldn't believe it, that the feelings were mutual. It felt like a dream.
"All this time... and I never said anything," he muttered, shaking his head in disbelief. "I was such an idiot, I should have said something sooner."
"Don't be so hard on yourself, I could have talked about it too but..." You pause, lowering your eyes "I was afraid, afraid it would be impossible, given the distance between us."
His expression softened, understanding flooding through him. He squeezed your hand a little tighter.
"I was afraid too," he confessed, his voice slightly hoarse. "I didn't want to ruin our friendship, I didn't want to make things awkward."
He paused, a small smile tugging the corner of his mouth. "We were both idiots, huh?"
"Nothing new about that." You say jokingly with a slight smile, "But...how are we going to do this? I'm supposed to leave on Monday."
His smile faltered slightly at your words, the reality of the situation crashing down on him again. He had been so focused on finally confessing his feelings that he had almost forgotten about your imminent departure.
"I..." He trailed off, his mind racing to find a solution. But no matter how hard he thought, he couldn't think of a way to bridge the distance between them, at least not immediately.
"I don't know," he admitted, his voice quietly breaking. "I wish there was a way."
As you watched his face decompose, you felt your heart break into a thousand pieces in your chest. There had to be a solution, there had to be.
"I...could stay here?" You said in a low voice, a glimmer of hope in your eyes.
His heart skipped a beat as he heard your suggestion, his eyes widening in surprise. He had never even dared to hope that was an option.
He turned to face you fully, the disbelief evident on his face. "You... would stay? Here? But... what about your plans? Your life?"
"I'd love to make new ones with you, we could start from scratch, live our lives the way we've always intended...?" You say, raising your eyes to his, your gaze full of hope.
An array of emotions washed over him. Could it be possible to turn his hopeless dreams into reality? Could they really start a life together?
He took both your hands in his, his grip a little tighter than necessary. "Are you sure?" he asked, a mixture of disbelief and hope in his voice. "Giving up everything you've planned.. for us?"
"It would even be an honor, to say the least." You whisper simply as you move slightly closer to him.
A strange mix of disbelief and joy filled his heart, his mind struggling to process your words. Was this really happening? Were his dreams about to come true?
A slow smile tugged at the corners of his mouth, and he couldn’t help but pull you closer, his hands finding their way to your waist.
"I can't believe this is real," he murmured, his eyes locked on yours. "I don’t deserve you at all, y/n."
"Nonsense." was all you had time to say before he pulled you into a passionate kiss.
Time seemed to stand still as his lips claimed yours, the world around them fading away into nothing but a blur. His hands pulled you closer to him, his fingers splaying over your lower back, as if he needed to feel every inch of you to convince himself this wasn't a dream.
He poured all his suppressed feelings into the kiss, his heart racing in his chest, a mix of heat and urgency mingling.
He could die for your heaven, he could lie here forever.

heavenly - cigarettes after sex
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
gojo fluff! gojo x gn!reader
gojo’s favorite evenings are when he lays his head on your chest and hears you yapping <3
Tumblr media
Even though Gojo was busy most of the time with his missions and his title of "strongest", there were still a few quiet evenings when Gojo came home. You heard the keys in the lock of your front door and realized that he was finally home. If he came home in the evening, that meant he was off, at least for tonight. So you smile stupidly as you wait for him to come through the door.
"Hi there," he says, kissing your forehead and tucking an arm behind your back. "How was your day?" you asked, already knowing the answer. "As usual," it was on.
After a good shower, Satoru joins you on the sofa, you're reading a book "The Metamorphosis" by Kafka. He turns on the TV, but doesn't look at it, he looks at you. "The Metamorphosis, eh? Sounds too heady for me," he says with a sneer — "It's a man turning into a cockroach, it's not that complicated" you reply. "Eww! It's disgusting, poor thing" he says, mimicking disgust.
You laugh and he continues to stroke your legs, his elbow resting on the edge of the sofa, holding his head.
"You're really beautiful, you know that?"
You close your book and look at him, "What's the matter with you tonight?" you say, smiling. "I'm not allowed to compliment the love of my life?" he says, taking your book and resting his head on your chest. "You could have said earlier that you wanted to cuddle!" you then start stroking his hair, with your long nails. "No, you're sexy when you read" — he replies, closing his eyes — "Mmh.. Your petting will get me killed."
You stay like that for half an hour, in silence, just the two of you.
If Satoru had a reason for coming home every night, it was because after your work, he knew you'd be waiting for him and welcoming him with open arms, damn it, how he loved your cuddles, the warmth of your body, the softness of your skin and the smell that emanated from it.
You break the silence for a brief moment, "Remember my friend with the black hair and the glasses?" — "Oh yes, the one who left her boyfriend because he cheated on her?" — you laugh, tugging at his hair, how tactless he could be sometimes - "Yeah, well, she had a date last week and it went really well". Satoru immediately rises from your chest, leaning on his arm. "You've got to be kidding! With who? What they look like?" — Satoru looks more excited than you do at the idea that your friend had met someone, Satoru loves gossip. "they’re slightly smaller than her, tattooed, black hair, brown eyes and they seem very nice!" You reply, happy to know that finally, your friend might be getting some respite with this new person. "They'd better not cheat on her" replies Satoru, before lying back down on your chest. You laugh.
These were Satoru's favorite evenings, no fancy parties, no appearances, no hypocrisy. Just him and you against the rest of the world. That's why he loved coming home at night, because he knew he'd get his fill of gossip, and he loved it. Your life was so much simpler than his and yet all the relationships between your friends seemed so complicated, but he loved hearing you talk. He loved, above all, to rest his head on your chest and hear your vocal chords resonate and your heart beat. You were there, you'd always be there, waiting for him. What had he done to deserve someone who could put up with his lifestyle and his much busier-than-average schedule, with the added risk of never coming back once he left the house? But fate had put you in his path, and he thanked the gods every day for that.
The gossip session must have lasted a good two hours, you coming back again and again to the same stories from the past, he knew them by heart but he could listen to them every day without flinching.
"Don't you think it smells a bit burnt?" asks Satoru. "She found him cheating on her- wait, what? no, my lasagna!" You get up just as early to go and look in the oven, the lasagna couldn't wait for the gossip session to end. Gojo stands up, laughs and walks over to you. He takes you by the waist, "You're so good in the kitchen, that's what I like most about you" he says ironically, kissing your neck. "I wanted to please you" — "Oh no, baby… We’ll order, it's no big deal mmh?". He embraces you tightly, "Yes, we should order." He chuckles one last time, you laugh too,
what he'd give to hear you laugh every day.

AAA AMAZING
REFLECTIONS
Tumblr media
pairing : gojo satoru x fem reader
cw : angst, hurt and comfort, breakup
synopsis : After dumping you by message about a week ago, you received a surprising message from Satoru telling you to come to his house in the middle of the night. He wants to talk.
jjk alternate universe : no jujutsu sorcerers, everyone is human
disclaimer : This is a spinoff from my fanfiction : the irony of fate (sukuna x reader).
Tumblr media
Satoru sighed and leaned back on his bed, waiting impatiently for you to arrive. He had texted you, saying there was something important he needed to talk about...and that it couldn’t wait till morning.
“Damn…hope she comes soon…”
~
Lying in bed, he stared blankly at the ceiling. He hadn't received a reply from you, and he'd been waiting for you for a few hours now. He presses his hand to his forehead, wondering why he thought you'd come. Deep down, everyone around him eventually tires of him when he shows himself to be vulnerable, he felt foolish for having thought it would be different this time.
He needed to get some fresh air; he'd never allowed himself to be carried away by his emotions since he was a child, however hard they were to bear.
He headed for the bathroom, determined to go out for a drive and try as best he could to take his mind off things. He let himself be submerged in the almost boiling water, as if he wanted to drown all thoughts that were detracting from his fun-loving image.
But tonight, it was just too much to bear. What he felt for you was truly powerful and unknown to him, and he blamed himself for ruining it for his stupid responsibilities. A tear escaped his eyes, mingling with the scalding water of the shower, fortunately no one saw him like this.
Lost in thought, he was startled by the sound of a notification on his phone as he stepped out of the shower in a hurry, hoping to see your name on the screen.
Instead, it was Sukuna's. Damn.
[kuna] : They’re here.
Oh, what an emotional elevator. Without wasting a single second, he quickly wrapped a towel around his waist, still soaking wet, and rushed downstairs.
From the top of the stairs, he couldn't help but crack a smile, seeing you there on the doorstep, lit only by the pale light of the moon. You looked magnificent, he thought.
Doing his best to maintain his self-assured facade, he joined you and your friend in the living room.
"You could at least have put on a tshirt, don't you think?" Her friend says with a disgusted laugh, you says nothing.
"I wanted to impress y/n but obviously I failed...I'm glad you guys came!" He said cheerfully.
"Why did you want us to come anyway?" You ask, trying to be indifferent but it's no easy task facing Satoru.
"Well, I wanted to talk, I really want to clear things up y/n." He said, sounding much more serious.
"So...What am I doing here?" Her friend asks, a little embarrassed.
"I told Sukuna I was inviting y/n, and he told me to invite you to hang out." Satoru replies simply.
"That's not weird at all..." You says mockingly.
"And how are we supposed to hang out if he...isn't here?" She asks, confused.
"Don't worry, he's changing. Y/n, shall we go upstairs?" Satoru asks, holding out his hand to you.
Your eyes widen slightly and your cheeks turn a light shade of red as you watches Satoru approach you, wearing nothing but a towel. You swallow yet again and looks down at his hand for a moment before taking it and allowing him to lead you upstairs.
You settle on his bed, while he quickly went to the bathroom to put on a simple white teeshirt and the most basic gray jogging pants. His hair was streaming down his forehead, but he couldn't care less, he had no time to lose.
As you settled comfortably onto his bed, you couldn't help but feel slightly uncomfortable with the entire situation. Why had he brought you here in the middle of the night?
You waited for him to return and your eyes widened once again when he emerged from the bathroom with his hair damp and hanging in front of his eyes. Seeing him dressed so casually, you couldn't help but find him extremely attractive.
"Why did you want to see me?" You ask, doing your best to hide the red that was rising to your cheeks.
He walks over and sits down next to you, a serious expression on his face. He ran a hand through his damp hair, pushing it out of his face as he spoke.
"There's something I wanted to talk to you about." He said, staring at the floor, avoiding your gaze.
"Does it have anything to do with how you dumped me like shit and then acted like nothing happened at your party?" You asked, your tone snarling. You felt tears welling up in your eyes just thinking about it, but you couldn't cry just yet.
Satoru froze, his eyes widening slightly as he heard the harshness in your tone. He knew that you would be mad at him, but he didn’t know you would be THIS mad. He knew he deserved it though.
"Yeah...it does."
He said quietly, finally looking up at you and meeting your gaze. He felt a pang of guilt in his chest as he saw the sadness in your eyes.
"I...I didn’t want to do it. I didn’t want to hurt you, but I didn’t really had a choice."
"And why is that? I'm sure you could have done it differently, couldn't you?" You raise your voice, surely carried away by frustration.
Satoru gritted his teeth and closed his eyes, feeling a sense of shame and guilt wash over him. You were right, he could have done it differently. He could have been kinder.
"I know, okay? I know I could have done it differently. But...but I didn't..."
He said, his voice quiet. He took a moment to collect his thoughts before speaking again.
"Look, you have to understand that my life isn't normal. I have obligations and responsibilities that you can't understand."
"Oh that's right I can't understand shit, maybe if one day you explained it to me I could understand." You hissed. "If you have so much responsibility, why did you let me fall for you...it's just…really cruel."
He sighed and ran a hand through his hair again. He hated seeing you like this.
"You think I wanted this? You think I wanted to fall for you, to lead you on when I know I can’t give you what you need? It was never supposed to go this far. But I couldn’t help it. You were just so...perfect."
He said, looking at you with a hint of pain in his eyes. He felt like he had hurt you way too much, and it killed him inside.
You didn't say anything for a while, you hadn't seen it that way, but it didn't matter. You'd fallen in love, and now you were being thrown out like an old sock.
Satoru sat quietly, watching you as you processed what he had said. He could see the pain and hurt in your eyes, and it made his chest ache. He felt like he had been such an idiot.
"Look, the reason I brought you here tonight is...well, I just..."
He trailed off, unsure of how to continue. He wanted to tell you how he had been feeling these past few days, how he had missed you like crazy. But he didn’t know how to say it without hurting you further.
"Hmm?" You said in a low voice, your eyes riveted to the ground.
He took a deep breath, gathering his courage to speak.
"I've been thinking...about everything. About us. About how I ended things."
He paused, staring intently at you. He wanted you to look at him, to see the sincerity in his eyes.
"And...I miss you. I miss you so damn much. Spending time with you, talking with you, kissing you..."
He took your silence as a sign to continue.
Your eyes finally met his, and you lost yourself in his magnificent bluish irises, but you knew that deep down, you were doomed.
"But..." you huffed, anticipating what was coming next.
Satoru saw the hurt and uncertainty in your eyes, and his heart ached. He hated what he was about to say, but he knew he had to be honest with you. There was no other way.
"But I can't give you what you need. I can't give you normalcy. I can't give you stability. My life...my job...they won't allow it." He said, his voice quiet and filled with regret.
"For fuck’s sake do you think I'm a fucking child to need so much stability? I'm tougher than I look, and a couple of boxing matches aren't going to intimidate me." You scream, letting tears overwhelm you.
His eyes widen as he sees your tears, and his heart breaks for hurting you so much.
"I know you can handle yourself. I know you're stronger than you look, and that's what I...I like about you. But it's not just about that, it's..."
He trailed off, struggling to find the right words. He wanted to tell you the truth, everything about him that he kept hidden, but he was scared of your reaction.
"Just get to the damn point." You snapped at him.
He winced at your tone, but he knew he deserved it. He took a deep breath and gathered all his courage before speaking up.
"Y/n...there's just so much you don't know about me. About my life. And it's something I can never tell you. It's a secret that could endanger you and everything I care about."
He paused, gauging your reaction.
"You know, maybe if you put your trust in someone someday, it might really make you feel better." you sigh as you stand up. "I really wish you could have confided in me, but too bad, I must have gotten the wrong idea." You say as you head for the door.
Satoru's heart sinks as he watches you stand up and head out. He reaches out to grab your wrist, gripping it gently.
"Y/n, wait..." He was desperate, he couldn't let you leave like this.
"What now?!" You exclaim as you turns back to him, trying to free yourself from his grip.
He doesn't let go of your wrist, instead pulling you back towards him so you’re standing directly in front of him.
"Please...don't go. Just...stay here with me, okay? Just for tonight..." He pleaded, his expression filled with a mix of desperation and vulnerability.
As if waking from a bad dream, you took a moment to observe Satoru, it was the first time you'd seen him so vulnerable, and you couldn't help but feel genuinely worried.
Satoru’s heart skipped a beat as he saw the concern in your eyes. He had never shown this side of himself to anyone before, and seeing you worry for him made his chest ache.
"I'll stay. I'll stay with you tonight." You say quietly, your voice filled with a mixture of relief and nervousness.
Satoru felt a weight lift off his shoulders as you agreed to stay. He took a step closer to you, his eyes fixed on yours as he spoke again.
"Thank you y/n, sincerely."
He gently guided you back to the edge of the bed, sitting down next to you but keeping a slight distance between the both of you.
"I wish everything could have been different." You said as you collapsed into bed, your gaze blank.
His heart ached as he watched you, seeing the sadness and exhaustion etched on your face. He longed to pull you into his arms and comfort you, but he knew he had no right to do so anymore.
"I wish it could have been different too." He said softly, his own expression mirroring your own sadness.
"Can you take me in your arms one last time? Because even though I'd prefer it to be different, I would never ask you to change." You say simply, planting your gaze in Satoru's.
His breath hitched in his throat as you asked him to hold you. His heart wanted to say yes, to pull you into his arms and hold you close, but his mind screamed at him to push you away.
But looking into your eyes, seeing the sadness and vulnerability in them, he knew he couldn't deny your request.
"Are you sure? I...I don't want to hurt you anymore."
"The damage has already been done, what we had is precious to me, I don't want it to end in tears and screams." You whisper.
His chest tightens with guilt as he hears your words. He knows he has hurt you, and there is no denying that fact.
He hesitates for a moment, his mind and heart at war with each other, before finally giving in to his heart.
"Come here." He said softly, holding out his arms to you.
You snuggle into his arms. And your eyes seek out Satoru's piercing blue gaze.
Satoru's arms instinctively wrap around you, holding you close to him. He feels a sense of comfort and warmth wash over him as you nuzzle into his chest, and it takes all his self-control not to bury his face in your hair and hold you even tighter.
He looks down at you, his eyes locking with yours. He wonders if this is the last time he'll ever have you in his arms like this, and the thought makes him feel suddenly and unexpectedly vulnerable.
You were too close to the stars, he never knew somebody like you, somebody falling just as hard.

THE IRONY OF FATE
Moodboard.
Tumblr media
Hi guys ! I wanted to make a moodboard to illustrate the irony of fate after seeing @sunelia ‘s that you should absolutely check !
Tumblr media
With this fic, I'm really trying to portray the complexity of human relationships, with an emphasis on emotional realism. The universe I’m depicting is the world of the night, the clubbing, the late bike rides, the fights…with heavy grunge inspirations.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Some of you may have noticed, but each chapter is named after one of the Neighbourhood's songs, that are very dear to my heart and very inspirational.
Here are some links to songs that best reflect the vibe I'm looking for:
✮ Flawless by The Neighbourhood
✮ Afraid by The Neighbourhood
✮ A little death by The Neighbourhood
Tumblr media
As always, check AO3 for more updates !
With love, Nyc <3

Tumblr media Tumblr media

word count: 980
Tumblr media
We're in the heart of autumn, mid-November. The remaining vibrant leaves were slipping from the branches of the trees, blending with their dull counterparts on the ground. The rain is pounding down hard cleaning and preparing the ground for winter.
My heart was heavy as I prepared to see my boyfriend Geto. We've been together for three years now, three years filled with laughter, happiness, tears, and love. Everything seemed to be going well, at least from my perspective. Our future held so many promises, reaffirming our commitment to each other. But everything changed with a single message.
Geto texted me, asking to meet up at his place saying, "We need to talk, please come by at 7p.m." The type of message that most people feared and makes your heart sink was sitting in my inbox. I was so taken aback that it left me speechless.
As if on autopilot, I made my way to my room to prepare. I gently touched the silver ring on my finger, a concerned expression on my face. With a trembling hand, I grabbed my bag and slowly opened the door of my apartment, ready to leave.
Before I locked the door, I took a deep breath and closed my eyes for a few seconds, knowing that when I returned, I would be a completely different person.
The journey seemed long, tiring, and nerve-wracking. Rain poured down on my black coat as the sky turned darker. The warmth of my hood contrasted with the cold of the water and the wind on my face.
I finally reached Geto's building and dialed his name on the intercom. A repetitive sound echoed until it was suddenly interrupted by Geto.
"It's me." I replied.
"It’s open." he said.
As the door to the building swung open, my heart started pounding rapidly. Every step I took seemed to echo loudly, turning what should have been a short stroll to the second floor into a challenging climb up a mountain. The emptiness around me only intensified the impact of each step.
When I finally made it to his floor, I found his apartment door wide open and him leaning against it. I gave him a little smile, which he returned. I couldn't decipher his expression.
"Come in." he said as I stepped into the living room, guided by his hand resting on the small of my back.
"One latte I guess?" He suggested as I took off my coat.
"Yes, I'd like that please."
I sat down on his couch and looked around. Nothing seemed to have changed since my last visit. I heard the sound of the dishwasher and the coffee machine. Geto came out of the kitchen holding my coffee. He carefully placed it on the table and sat down facing me.
There’s a long moment of silence.
Something had changed in the air. The atmosphere was heavy and electric at the same time. A weight seemed to rest on my shoulders, compressing my lungs, almost suffocating me. I felt like I was being sucked into the sofa, like I was falling into the void. The only source of warmth that could calm me was the cup of coffee. But I could tell what it was by the look on his face. It was soft, sad and yet firm.
"y/n I-"
I stopped him.
"I think I know what you're getting at." I said with a sad smile.
He didn't react at all.
I continued. "Your fleeing eyes, this sudden message... I know you well Geto."
He took a deep breath and reached for my hand.
"I am not happy anymore, I know I have so much affection for you y/n, but this feeling is not as deep as love anymore."
My heart was beating faster and my eyes were watering. I couldn't speak, but so many thoughts flooded my mind. Looking at his hand, I noticed that he was no longer wearing the promise ring we had exchanged weeks ago. His finger was free, ready to move forward, ready to receive another person's precious promises.
Pulling my hand away from him triggered feelings of anger and sadness. I could not stop the silent tears from falling down my cheeks. He looked devastated as his eyes filled with tears too.
"How long have you felt like this Geto?"
"Several weeks."
I see, he must have felt trapped in this relationship.
"I'm sorry y/n, so sorry. I couldn't keep my promise…" he said, tears streaming down his face.
I took the beautiful ring off my finger and placed it in the palm of his hand, which I then closed.
"Thanks for telling me, I hope you’ll find what you're looking for."
He took me in his arms. I couldn't stop my tears as I laid my head on his shoulder. I could hear him crying too as he stroked my head like the old days.
We stayed like this for a few minutes, then, I decided to take my hands off him. I took one last look at his delicate eyes, his lips, his pointy nose, his long beautiful black hair.
"I have to go, Geto." I said, my face just inches from his.
"I know, I just can't let you go."
"You said you wanted to end it, please don't hurt me any more." I begged, my voice trembling.
He nodded and let me get up, gather my things and speak to him one last time.
"Take care of yourself." I said.
He cried. "Take care of yourself too y/n."
I slammed the door and ran down the stairs at a rapid speed. The rain on my face mixed with my tears as I walked away from the building. It finally hit me that three years of happiness had now faded away just like the dead leaves of autumn.
