New One Shot Preview: Yona’s Birthday Yona & Hak scene

“Hak what’s this about?” Yona asked, slightly confused as he pulled her along.

 “Just something I thought you’d like to do.” Hak took her towards another booth that was near the river, where several tiny boats with lanterns were placed in memorial for those that had passed on. Mostly adults that were mourning the deaths of their parents were there along with several others that lost loved ones. “… I figured since you never got to be there for your father’s funeral this was at least something you could do… It’s not much of a birthday present but…”

 “Hak….” Yona felt tears filling her eyes at the thoughtful gesture from her bodyguard. She flushed and hugged him tightly.

 “Look I know why you were avoiding telling that idiot husband of yours about today, because of what happened last year. But at the same time I felt he could help so it wouldn’t be so painful…” Hak admitted, buying one of the boats with a lantern and helping the princess light it. “So he said he wanted to take you someplace to get your mind off everything and make it a happy time. Couldn’t blame him there.” He then looked at her seriously. “Princess… Nothing is going to happen to anyone today. I promise you. I won’t fail you like I did last year.”

 Yona frowned at that, tears floating down her cheeks as she shook her head. “… You didn’t fail me Hak, or father… There was no way you could have known what would happen that night…” she sighed, saying a pray before letting the little boat sail out into the water. “… Hak…. I never properly thanked you for saving me that night.” She said, staring off at the little boat which the lantern illuminated the water along with the moonlight from the night sky.

 “It’s my job, isn’t it?” Hak replied with a smirk, patting her shoulder.

 Yona shivered a bit, looking up at him a tad uneasy. She knew now that he had loved her for a long time, so long he didn’t even know when it started. But she always just saw him as a friend and felt guilty she never noticed his feelings until his outburst that day. That the reason he was by her side wasn’t just out of obligation to her father, but because he chose to and respected her. It wasn’t just his job that he was here, as he put it this was home for him. “… Thank you, Hak.” She choked, her tears still coming down like a waterfall. “… This baby is alive inside of me because of you.” She wrapped her arms around her stomach, feeling another kick from inside. “I’m just sorry I never-“

 “Let’s not bring that up again ok?” Hak sighed, shaking his head. “I told you that I don’t expect anything out of you, just that you know now. The best way you can make it up to me is to be happy, because that’s all I want princess. If that pervert is what makes you happy then so be it, I still say you made a mistake falling for that moron but that’s your choice that you have to live with.” He chuckled. “But just know that I’m here for you, always.”

 Yona choked another sob as she threw her arms around her guardian again, hugging him tightly. “… I wish father was here now… Even if he might be disappointed in me, or upset that I’ve completely gone against his wishes by taking up a weapon… I still wish that he could have…” she whimpered, burying her head into his chest.

 Hak frowned at the crying princess in his arms, he brushed a hand over her crimson hair, while scolding his heart that hammered away in his chest and broke at the same time, knowing that what he held here wasn’t his and never could be. But he’d buried his feelings for her long ago, it’s why he could hold together in situations like this, as long as she’d be happy. “… I think King Il would have been proud of what you’ve become… What you’ve done for this kingdom. He wouldn’t have agreed with everything, but I think you would have made him proud…. I wish he could see you now, and how strong you’ve become. You’re really cool, you know.”

 Yona blushed at that, smiling as she hugged him tighter. “Thank you, Hak…” she sniffed, grunting as she felt another kick from her baby, but this time closer to her front… And blinked when she felt Hak stiffen.

 “… Princess, what was that?” Hak blinked, looking down in confusion.

 “What was what?” the redhead was clueless as to what he meant.

 Hak’s hand was suddenly at her stomach, feeling around until he felt a kick from the child. “Oh… It’s that.”

 “HEY! W-w-what do you think you’re doing?!” Yona stammered, getting completely flustered at the way his hand was touching her so casually.

 Before the Thunder Beast could answer Jae-ha approached them. “My, my, I let you two run off alone and you get so daring already Hak! While I might not mind sharing I think my cute little wife might object to it…”

 “JAE-HA!!!” Yona shouted, blushing bright red.

 Hak gave the Ryokuryuu a death glare for that one, though he was blushing a bit. “Shut the hell up Droopy Eyes I’m not a pervert like you!”
