i had an idea... for malleus.... imagine attending the school ball dance or something im not sure with him.... meow

May I have this dance?

———

Summary: At the end of every year, Night Raven College hosts a winter ball before the long break. With all your friends abandoning you, you’re left with a last minute date with a guy you’ve never even met. Let’s just say, it didn’t go to plan. However, there’s someone you’ve been eyeing off for a while now. Maybe this is your chance to talk to him? Fandom: Twisted Wonderland Characters: Malleus Draconia Warnings: Insecurity A/N: anon when i catch you. this is gonna be 2-3 parts, this first one more setting the scene

———

You heaved a sigh, sitting on the cold steps. Today was the night of the NRC winter ball, classes had gone by leisurely because everyone was too ecstatic to stay focused— which didn’t go down well with Professor Crewel. Gosh, even the teachers seemed excited. It was truly the event of the year.

And you? Were dressed up for nothing.

The chilly night air filled your lungs, as if a ghost was trying to comfort you because your friends certainly weren’t going to.

A Savanaclaw boy had originally asked you out to the dance, obviously not wanting to be alone; you accepted despite not knowing him. Look where that got you now. A stupid, last minute date that didn’t even show up.

It must’ve been a dare. How could I have been so foolish?

You felt so disappointed, deep down you’d been looking forward to this. Deep, deep down that familiar sadness was brewing inside you threatening to swallow you whole. Oh, how it was sickening. Tears threatened to fall, but just because your eyes were dry! Nothing else. Nothing at all. You weren’t looking forward to this at all. You didn’t care.

Ballroom music caught your attention, a small, sad smile peeked at your lips. Hopefully your friends were having fun, and not sitting outside like a complete loser.

Hmm… maybe I should just go look for them. I can’t return to my dorm like this can I?

Your mind was made up. A little burst of confidence helped you stand up, pulling yourself off the stone steps and stand at the halls entrance. You closed your eyes, taking in a deep breath.

No more than an hour. And certainly no dancing.

‿︵‿︵‿ ୨♡୧ ‿︵‿︵‿

Inside was gorgeous, you couldn’t deny the amount of sheer effort put into the design of the ballroom. The student council committee had worked hard, and it showed.

Soft snow glittered on the floor, set up in the corners as little mounds. The lighting was like rays of moonlight, reflecting off of your eyes. The whole hall was very well put together. It looked elegant, similar to a scene from a fantasy movie.

However— cheap blue party streamers hung from the ceiling showing it wasn’t all that fancy.

With other people dancing, chatting away with their friend groups, kissing their partners in their matching prom outfits… you couldn’t help but feel alone, and a tiny bit self conscious. Was anyone noticing you standing around by yourself?

I’ll just find someone I can talk to, or hang around. Where’s my group anyway?

Although. After wandering in the shadows for ages, this wasn’t working. You glanced down at your feet, kicking the blue streamers. This was awkward.

No signs of my friends, or Malleus.

Oh, Malleus. Diasomnia’s dorm leader was so dreamy.

Your eyes drifted to the punch table that seemed very tempting right now. No one was loitering there, so you wouldn’t get caught in conversation with someone you didn’t know.

I’m already here…

Just one drink, and then you’d leave… right?

Wrong.

You were on your third cup of fruit punch. Music beat loudly in the background, it wasn’t interesting enough to focus on. Just party music, sounding more to a blur. You sighed. This whole thing had been a fluke, abandoned by your date and friends… it didn’t feel good. It was a hollow feeling that left a lump in your throat you couldn’t swallow. The lights became all fuzzy as you began dwelling in your thoughts.

Malleus.

Oh so perfect Malleus, you couldn’t help but wonder what he’d think of you in this attire?

Actually, was he even here? Surely Diasomnia would tell him about the one and only Winter ball. As third years, this was something that was celebrated yearly. But this one was different. It was your last year at Night Raven College, it was special. And for Malleus… surely Lilia would make sure he knew it was today. If not the classrooms and dorms being empty should be a big enough clue.

In complete honesty, you’d secretly been hoping he’d ask you out to the ball. The disappointment when he didn’t was… immeasurable.

So instead I made the mistake of trying to ask him. As if I had a chance. You thought bitterly, digging your nails into the side of the plastic cup.

1 week later

I quietly creaked open the cabin door, trying to keep the noise to a minimum.

I clutched my bag tightly, every muscle in my body tense. The cabin was dimly lit, shadows dancing across the wooden walls, but the comforting warmth of the place made it feel like home, at least for now.

~~~~

A couple of days after we discovered the cabin, I had snuck out and gone back to the plane wreckage. I was desperate to find hygiene supplies and clothing. To my surprising and inconsistent luck, I struck gold. There was a stash of essential items—feminine hygiene products, general hygiene items, clothes, medicine, and more. It felt like Christmas morning, the excitement bubbling up inside me as I rummaged through the supplies.

But heading back to the cabin with bags full of things was completely out of the question. I knew this sounded shitty, but I wasn't exactly planning on sharing the bulk of my haul. Self-preservation and all that. If I were to share with anyone, it would be Jackie. We've always had each other's backs. When it comes to medication, though, I'd obviously share if it came down to it. We're kind of in this together, after all.

For now, I had stashed everything at the spot Jackie and I had "hung out" at. It was our secret spot, a place where we could talk and plan without the others overhearing.

I hadn't told Jackie about my find yet. I kept telling myself I was waiting for the right moment, but deep down, I knew she would be pissed at me for sneaking out alone. Still, I was sure she'd be glad to know I brought back important supplies.

~~~~~

As I opened the cabin door, the cold morning air hit me like a ton of bricks. The sudden chill made me sharply inhale, gripping my bag tighter against the biting wind. I pulled my jacket closer around me and began my way down the narrow path to the nearby lake, each step crunching against the frost-covered ground.

The moon's light cast a soft glow over the landscape, turning the world into a serene winter wonderland. The trees were dusted with a delicate layer of frost, their branches gently swaying in the breeze. As I made it to the lake, the cool breeze whipped through my hair, sending chills down my spine. It was a stark reminder that winter was fast approaching, and it was only going to get colder.

I placed my bag onto a flat rock near the water's edge and began to undress. The air was frigid against my skin, goosebumps prickling my arms and legs. I carefully folded my clothes and set them beside the bag, making sure they stayed dry. From the bag, I pulled out a bar of soap and a small bottle of hair wash, clutching them in my arms as I made my way to the shoreline.

The lake's surface was smooth and dark, reflecting the overcast sky above. I waded into the water, each step sending icy ripples across the surface. The cold water enveloped my body, taking my breath away. I inhaled deeply, trying to calm my racing heart and control my breathing. The water was like needles against my skin, each and every wave a shock to my system.

Slowly, I sank deeper into the water until it reached my shoulders. I shivered uncontrollably but forced myself to stay submerged. With trembling hands, I lathered the soap, the suds barely forming in the icy water. I scrubbed my skin quickly, the cold making my movements stiff and clumsy.

Next, I poured a small amount of hair wash into my palm, working it through my hair as best as I could. The water numbed my scalp, and I had to keep reminding myself to breathe deeply. Each inhale was a struggle, my chest tight with the cold.

As I rinsed off, I could feel my muscles tensing from the chill. The shore seemed miles away, but I knew I had to get out before hypothermia set in. With a final deep breath, I turned and began wading back to the shore, the water reluctantly releasing its grip on me.

I reached the edge of the secluded lake and quickly grabbed my large, fluffy beach towel, wrapping it tightly around my shivering body as I stumbled and slipped on the uneven terrain back to the rock where I had left my clothes. My fingers were numb from the cold, fumbling clumsily as I tried to dry off.

Just as I managed to put on my bra and underwear, I heard a deep, ragged breathing coming from the dense trees nearby. I immediately froze, the water dripping down from my hair onto my collarbone as my heart pounded in my ears. Holding my breath, I slowly turned to face the shadowy treeline, dread building in the pit of my stomach.

"Hello?" I nervously called out, regretting it almost instantly. What an idiotic thing to do - if this was some kind of deranged axe murderer, they certainly weren't going to politely respond. The breathing quickened, turning into harsh pants, followed by the distinct crunch of twigs and leaves as the unseen presence began slowly approaching me.

"Oh fuck, no no no," I whispered frantically, quickly gathering up the rest of my clothes and shoes, not even bothering to put them on as I wrapped the towel tightly around myself. Against my better judgment, I felt a surge of misguided bravery and slowly walked towards the ominous sounds, grabbing a sharp rock as a makeshift weapon.

"I'm not fucking around! I swear to god if this is one of you assholes playing a prank, I will fucking kill you!" I threatened, praying it was just one of the girls trying to scare me. But as I pushed deeper into the trees, the sounds suddenly stopped, leaving an eerie silence that made the hair on the back of my neck stand on end.

"Seriously?" I let out a nervous laugh as I spotted a small squirrel darting across the forest floor in front of me. "It was just a damn squirrel the whole time?" I shook my head in disbelief, laughing almost maniacally at my own overreaction.

Relieved, I started making my way back towards the lake, but just as I turned around, I felt a sudden cold breeze on the back of my neck, almost like the brush of someone's breath. I sharply inhaled, squeezing my eyes shut tight before ripping them open and speed-walking away in sheer panic.

"Hey!" a sudden whispered voice hissed in my ear, and I let out an ear-piercing scream, immediately taking off in a full sprint into the dark, dense forest. My lungs burned as I pushed through the branches, which sliced and tore at my exposed skin, leaving stinging scratches all over my arms, neck, and shoulders. And then, without warning, I tumbled head-first down a very steep hill, crying out as I clawed at the dirt in a futile attempt to stop my descent.

"Fuck, fuck, fuck!" I cried out, the air knocked from my lungs as I hit the ground incredibly hard. Wincing in pain, I curled up on my side, clutching my stomach. "Oh my god," I panted, blindly reaching around for my belongings, only to find that my bags had been lost somewhere up the hill. Frustrated tears stung my eyes as I pushed myself up onto my knees, searching desperately for my towel or anything that could provide some cover.

Finally, I spotted a glimpse of white in the distance and slowly approached, squinting to make it out. To my relief, it was my towel, snagged on a nearby branch. I practically leaped up to grab it, wrapping it tightly around my shivering, scratched-up body. Now what the hell was I supposed to do? I was lost, half-naked, and completely at the mercy of whatever - or whoever - was lurking in these dark, menacing woods.

"Okay, okay," I whispered to myself, pushing my hair behind my ears in an attempt to calm down. Alright, I just need to climb up this hill and retrace my steps, I thought.

But jeez, what the hell was that whisper in my ear? The breathing? There's no way it was one of the girls playing a prank, right?  I need to get back to the cabin as soon as possible..

୨⎯ "for @toyafreethoughts" ⎯୧

PART 2

✯ you are delightful company to keep- not just in malleus’ bright eyes, but also in those of his fellow diasomnia classmates. i can see that one mulan scene occurring:

malleus: "would you like to stay for dinner?"

lilia: "WOULD YOU LIKE TO STAY FOREVER?!"

(almost) everyone else: LILIA!

✯ the most random bullshit will happen when the two of you are together. sometimes its because of grimm, sometimes its because of bad luck, somehow you give that feeling that you’re the type of person who gets stuck into bad situations often, half of which is your fault for breaking the rules, and half of which is someone else’s, accidentally stepping into the mess because of grimm and the others

✯ malleus finds it refreshing to be by you. he does not mind the loudness you describe, or how your emotions may be displayed in ways he cannot fully comprehend. but, he is observant. though he is no detective like akechi, his ability to empathize and willingness for communication and tolerance is on par with the words of a masterful mediator. when he does speak, it is only honesty that echoes through his words. you do not need to think hard to understand what his words mean. he does not dumb you down because of your mental diagnoses either, and expects a lot from you. dont worry! a relationship with malleus means good pressure and anticipation— he motivates you with his abilities and ambition.

✯ your sense of adventure and attitude endears many of your friends in the cast, but it is especially malleus that is affected. you remind him of all the good humans have, despite flaws, being capable of so much charity and care. the only other human he is so close with is silver, and you are not like him at all after the initial stage of distance! many can see him softening up physically and verbally the slightest bit near you to make you feel more comfortable. he’s like a prince, truly, researching into counterparts of things you enjoyed back on earth that exists here in wonderland to gift you, asking his friends for advice regarding getting close to you at first. he’s a very calming soul, and matching some of what you’ve said, the relationship itself feels so peaceful and intimate. even with the rolling boulders and sentient armor chasing after the two of you. yep yep 👍🏻 malleus is here to save the day! (again) though, i have no doubt you would’ve been able to escape the situation eventually by yourself.

✯ the two if you go out often during the night for dates and late night shopping! i can see the two of you getting warm boba during the winter, walking around food markets and tasting the snacks. eventually, it gets very cold despite that! so malleus bundles you in his own scarf and casts some magic to heat the two of you up by touching him (he milks the most affection out of anything he can find lol). particularly, he really likes holding your hands. do you wear nail polish? he likes the way it feels when he touches them. not only that, black is both his dorm color and an important color in gothic fashion. isnt it a good suggestion of color?

✯ avid listener to you. he talks more often with you than even lilia, but all the same, he is less of a talker and more of a listener. he likes the way that you laugh and watching your reactions to different things. malleus’ chuckles are hard to come by - his smiles arent - but his laughter is. its like a reward daunting on you when you hear it, a downright angelic laughter. it makes everything you do so so worth it. if you invite him for a movie night, bet that he would be able to pay attention to both at once, so the two of you can talk about the movie together afterwards. he definitely lets you touch the horns.

✯ he can solve 90% of your problems, and that’s exactly what he does when you allow him to. he just wants to see you happy and secure in life, and that extends to when you leave NRC…

✯ sad endings are overrated though, so the two of you have a mirror that can take each other to the other persons world. who gave it to you? just pretend im there and found this magical artifact on accident and gave it to you two 😼 whatever actions the two of you take next, you will always find each other’s lives interwoven. your time together comes back to him in winter harshly, washed over by the snow. whatever time he spent with you and will spend with you must feel idyllic, like the freedom of cold wind sweeping through the skies.

✯ she lovesss coddling you, moreso in words of affirmation and physical affection, in exchange for your care and attention. out of everyone on your list, she and V are most likely the most touched from your characteristics and values. as i get to know you better, i start to think that for mystic messenger V might quite honestly be the better pick between him and jumin. since she cant truly embrace you, she hooks an arm around your shoulders or neck instead, and practically drapes herself on you lol. everyone is pretty strong in the DWMA, so of course you can bring her around! i feel like she’d also break some protocol and sneak into your bag in her cat form in order to stay by you lol. and you let it happen, because its ok, even if stein punishes the two of you

✯ she’s a bit of a prideful person, and you’re a very charming person, so she definitely likes showing you off to the other witches and people she knows well. its a brag— look who i managed to pull! not only that, your senses of fashion are both very darker toned, which means a lot of correlating outfits.

✯ as a witch, puppetry is a topic she is very accustomed to. other things in your hobbies that involves more motion like dancing is something she is very passionate towards. are you on the school’s team? she’ll watch allll your games and wear your jerseys! not only that, she also enjoys shopping and parties! it really helps that you’re an extrovert, so she doesnt feel like shes dragging a reluctant lover around and feel bad! your determination really inspires her, and the fact that you’re spouse material does not help in how she becomes clingy with you in the mornings! she’s going to steal all the sweets you bake and eat all the food you’ve cooked. having heritage in so many cultures, i’m guessing you have a plethora of knowledge in different kinds of dishes! she really enjoys that, and becomes a truly spoiled cat.

✯ this man right here plays the hell around before actually starting to do anything with you at all. not only that, he’s a bit of a tsundere. good thing you’re patient, because this man is making you wait. he himself is a ghost, so time runs differently for him. in his gaze, you have already lost (you won)

✯ this is the other bantering relationship — the two of you have legendary back and forths, qi rong throwing together vulgar responses on the spot while you use your vocabulary to destroy each other. when you get verbally aggressive because of his provocation reaching too close, he didnt expect you to get that riled up. he had expected you to be reluctantly tolerant at first like that fucker xie lian, but, you really werent kidding when you said you’re confrontational like this. he thinks its attractive in all honesty.

✯ that aside, you are a very helpful hand that he has always needed — and while he dislikes it, he also appreciates your optimism — its something he has lost in the many years he has been alive. not only os a good for him, children should not be raised in such a hostile environment like he already put guzi in, even this ancestor already knows. you’ll be a good model for both him and guzi to follow. especially in fucking hygiene and dressing, he needs a shower, i just know it, especially with the raining blood.

✯ i think you guys would be traveling buddies, hopping from place to place. theres always a question that pops up here and there on your journey; can ghosts truly be good people?

they can they can, of course they can

✯ lowkey, this relationship does not start well (anything with belphie never does). he murders you (tf) and tension is still high, but very slowly, you wiggle into his heart the same way you did to the others.

✯ most of the time he just sort of basks in your presence, maybe using your shoulder or your lap. he’s sleepy all the time, so he gets agitated quickly. you do this thing called the jax effect in which you calm him down and relax him just by being near him, maybe holding his hands or stroking his hair. the way it is described makes it more akin to relaxing a pet or a child, but dont worry, its nothing like that. many of your interactions are very emotionally charged because of how the both of you are. many of your dates just consists of the two of you lying in bed or just somewhere inside his or your rooms together doing your more calmer hobbies. he’s definitely up for walking around from time to time, mostly to make you happy 😃 drag him around while you’re out and dont feel bad, he likes you talking his ears off. for how tired he seems, hes always able to recount all your words and the like.

✯ mainly its your sense of humor that makes him stay. he loves how outspoken you are, your mischievousness and slightly rebellious streak. bel will not be able to stand someone who allowed people to walk over them like a carpet, even if its from time to time. he’s one of the seven lords of hell— as long as you are with him, you are nigh untouchable by others. only by way of curses and the shit you and his brothers get in is he left more helpless. but yes, he gets very happy around you, even snuffling his giggling from time to time. he especially would like you if you have the guts to go against lucifer and stand your ground. he doesnt want to take a lover who he must be fragile with; someone like you is perfect, who also gives him room to grow and learn about you as a person. he can trust you.

✯ of everyone’s futures she sees, yours hurt the most. but, it isnt about that right now.

✯ aponia adores every aspect of you. she is a woman easily endeared by your bold personality, yet you seem to be embarrassed very easily sometimes. gossip? she finds that cute instead - you just want to know things occurring around you, not to actively spread any malevolent information, isnt it? not only that, you seem to get amped up sometimes; shes the perfect balance to settle you down! especially when you’re feeling tired or down, she knows all the ways to help you feel better, only partially to do with her abilities.

✯ spends every moment she can to really take in all of you. i think the two of you align very well in personality, and she can easily understand what you are going through and offer aid. she’s definitely got killer moves too, and i think she would love collecting figurines or stuffed animals with you together— if she ever gets some limited edition figure when you did not, she will give them to you!! ceaselessly! dont try to decline, she insists that her collection also is yours. she likes to do that cheek nuzzling thing, or rubbing your back ❥ having her as your partner, you truly must have done more than a hundred major good deeds in your past life.

✯ she’s definitely got some painting skills. i can see the two of you drawing together under the shade on the patio, or getting clay stained on your shirt. the smell of romance is like spring in this manner, petrichor, clean laundry. i can see your parents very much approving her. out of all of the matchups, aponia is definitely the favorite for your parents. nobody can truly hate her unless its out of envy.

✯ of course the two of you bake together! cooking, baking, sharing secret recipes over the countertops and swiping the flour from your cheeks. you two bake a lot of bread together, milk bread, sourdough; a lot of excess sweets is set to a side to cool, to bring to your friends and neighbors later.

✯ unfortunately, i’m not that caught up for genshin yet for his lore too, so i hope i characterized him properly!

✯ i feel like in genshin you’d have a hydro or pyro vision, both very complimentary to work with his cryo, just like how your dynamic would be blended in softly with one another. i think the two of you starts out as close friends, the type where he thinks of you slightly as a little brother figure, but in the type of way the best i could describe to be a younger friend calling someone older brother or sister in korean&chinese. someone who he is open to give guidance to. as the wheel of romance starts turning, i would liken him to be quite flustered at this development based on your character.

✯ wriothesley is an immensely chilled person, humble, persuasive, observant. his dynamic with you would be like aponia’s, however with other developments attuned to the two of you specifically. for example, he would delight in sharing teatime with you, the baked goods you have made serving as a small powerup for his mood! not only that, mornings will be spent in calming ease. wriothesley seems like the type to wake up early by accident, and many times the two of you stay under the blankets until duty calls.

✯ what strikes him immediately when he first met you was of your treatment to the melusine. the catalyst of his own amiability towards them was of their displays of kindness when he needed them most. so whenever he sees someone like you, he gets slightly curious. the way you keep his attention, is with the different way you seem to go about things and interactions. looking at you sucking in a breath before approaching your next target is, by heavens, very wholesome to watch.

✯ he likes running his hands through your hair. it just feels right to say. does your love for the cold weather and drinks apply to pleasant coldness in general? wriothesley naturally runs cold, and hopes you dont mind it when he holds your hand. normally, he takes bis gauntlet off to do so, but perhaps it is still a bit too much…

✯ while he finds not much enjoyment in seeing the arts, he loves your creativity and making art with you. knowing the languages and instruments you’ve learnt, he enjoys the process rather than the results. he wants to know anything at all you would want to share.

if it isnt too much to ask, what vision do you think i would have?

✯ the most wholesome pairing award goes towards this matchup! this is another one where im not too confident in in terms of writing, aone and you give off childhood friends vibes, with you stepping in to voice his opinion whenever he pulls back to avoid more conflict. usually, by the time you finish speaking, the other party is deterred because of your passion instead of being riled up by it, leaving no furthered argument to be held. aone admires this greatly, since you make sure it stops there. i think he’ll balance out your fervor too, with his presence comes a presence of calm that grounds you before you spitfire at the other person.

✯ his friends definitely tease him about how he managed to date you! cmon, an expressionless brick of a man somehow got a lover before them! how is this possible? what is your wisdom, great aone?? not only that, the two of you look a tad bit comedic together if they compare the two of you in their minds, but standing next to each other in reality, it doesnt look so bad!

✯ at first the two of you are both shy, but because you seem like you both want to know one another better, it gives off a more flustering and endearing aura with the way the two of you interact. you warm him up with your energy, and the two of you get along well! i would think the two of you are the type to sort of sign up for cooking classes together for the first date OR working together in home economics, and become hyper-focused while collaborating. the dish turns out amazing in the end! the two of you high five with both hands in satisfaction. that’s the best way i can describe this relationship, filled with floating happiness and contentment. especially if you make him sweet chestnut paste!

✯ playing volleyball????? you play volleyball?? and other sports?? he’s so delighted on the inside. please practice with him when you can! getting some advice from someone you can trust really does feel very different than just regular tips.

✯ this works out. it definitely does. i know you have patience, and that definitely applies to when you love someone too. you are like the light he sees at the end of the tunnel, who blazes in and shoots away at the evils that plagues his mind. not only are you of character to help him immensely with your thoughts and values, everything turns his emotions over into turmoil. your presence disrupts that into rest, a dissipating tempest.

✯ he is absolutely an annoyance with his fixation on rika. he’s probably compared everyone with rika at one point, and is reminded of his guilt. timid, fainthearted, and too loyal, he knows his shortcomings well and thinks you deserve better than what he can give you. and he is right, for the present. as of now, he cannot give you anything worthwhile, but his own existence is something worthwhile to you. often times, its annoying that he burdens himself without telling others. how could he? as a friend you help him turn his gaze into getting better instead, and with your words, show him how communication is so important. alright enough about fixing him.

✯ v finds you to be a charming individual. he feels very lucky to be surrounded with people who are different, yet all hold compassionate hearts— especially you. one day, he will open his heart again for you to take, and he knows you’ll be gentle with it. that said, you are very different otherwise from the others. he is worried about your shyness during the parties, but you have done well, and as you invite them again and grow closer, relations are better than ever!

✯ he also has always held a distinct love for the creative arts; especially your likes for photographing pretty things. he wants to understand your emotion and character through the art you create, and is very proactive in support you through your hobby. at one point he decides to try out painting himself as a way of sorting through his emotions with your aid. he likes keeping some of your sketches with him near his breastpocket. the two of you led a very long and happy life after all the drama and the pain, carving a road together for the future you deserve together.

୨ ✦ ୧ You were the woman who had everything – according to outsiders who peer into your life through a rose-colored glass. That same glass that stained any problem in your life with a slash of vibrant pinks.

“It can’t be that bad! After all, you have everything!”

The glass allowed them to paint their narrative of your life. To them, you were the epitome of success for housewives. Your husband is successful, kind, caring, and generous. Sure, appearance – he’s a little on the rough side, but that’s one of his charms. No one would assume such a gentleman hides behind his scary façade, even when his eyes are as cold as the winter night, or his words cut deeper than any blade ever could. He’s gentle, he shows it in the way he grabs you with such caution, how he holds you. But no one could ever let this gentleness mistake then – he can still hurt anyone he pleases and with ease. Not as if anyone could mistake it, it’s obvious that his tender side is only for a select few. You, his darling wife. His siblings, and his soon-to-be son.

That’s right, you’re pregnant and on the first try too. You have it all, don’t you, Mrs. Shiba?

You want to say yes, you want to agree with the women who leave petty comments out of jealousy. Just to spite them, you want to flaunt your relationship, your husband as if it is nothing less of a wonderland for you, but that would be a lie. At a time, not too long ago, it was. Not anymore, because you can no longer look at him the same, not as you once did. You’ve tried to, you tried to bring back the sparkle in your eyes when he come home from work. You tried to make your voice higher with excited squeals when he lifts you, like before. You even tried to love him, but it didn’t feel right, it’s not right. Being with Taiju, it… It isn’t right anymore. Not after what you learned.

You held onto Hakkai’s forearm as he guided you to the couch, hand against your back keeping you stable.

“You know… This is the same couch where we made little one here.” You giggled as you nodded towards the furniture. Sounds of gags and “gross” left the siblings mouth, only giving you another reason to giggle.

“You disgust me.” Yuzuha bluntly says with no harm behind her words. Hakkai nodded his head in agreeance, that was out of line.

“I’m sorry, Hakkai… Yuzuha.” You sighed. A huff leaves your mouth when you’re finally able to sit down on the soft couch. It’s been so long since you’ve seen them; the all too famous Shiba siblings. Hakkai, one of the most popular up-coming models, and his beautiful manager Yuzuha. All you wanted was to make them a nice and homemade meal for their return to Tokyo – you tried too. Pushing yourself way past your limits. You know better, as a pregnant woman you shouldn’t be pushing yourself. Rationalize all you want with excuses and your intent; you should be sitting. You sigh again, disappointed with yourself. You know you shouldn’t be ashamed for being unable to cook when you’re carrying this child, but you wanted to take care of the others first.

You always saw the two siblings more like your children more than your brother and sister-in-law, even once… You giggle every time you remember this – Hakkai slipped up and called you mom. It shook both Taiju and Yuzuha when it happened, Taiju standing out of his seat in surprise and Yuzuha choking up her coffee. But you reacted differently, your hand found itself on his head, ruffling his long hair. You felt warm on the inside at that moment, that’s when you knew, you wanted to be a mom.

“Stop, Y/n. It’s not your fault, it’s his fault.” Yuzuha giggles as she softly pokes your belly from her seat right by your feet.

“Yeah! Don’t be upset, you shouldn’t push yourself too hard anyways.” Hakkai huffed as he scolded you – you giggled at how worried he was. He’s overbearing with his constant worry, but it was adorable. He’s a good kid. His arms crossed pushing into the head of the couch, chin resting on his arms right next to your head.

“We can always order out.” Yuzuha offered with dazzling eyes.

“No-no!” You were quick to decline. “All you guys do is eat out, that can’t be healthy. Besides, our little model here needs to watch what he eats.” Your hand cupped his face, gently squeezing his cheeks. “Just give me a minute, I’ll finish dinner… Phew~”

“You know, I would’ve never thought Taiju would have a kid.” Yuzuha chuckled as she leaned back on the couch.

“Yeah – he wasn’t very… kid-friendly.” A nervous chuckle left Hakkai’s mouth, and there you sat, confused. Taiju had a rough life growing up, you know that. With his mom passing and his dad not active in his life, he turned to a life of crime and gangs, all while trying his hardest to raise his siblings.  

A confused breath of air left your mouth, it could be taken as a chuckle. “What do you mean?” Your hand slowly caresses your belly in a circular motion out of habit. Whenever you’re anxious or feel an overwhelming amount of emotion you caress your belly, it’s your way of telling your baby everything’s okay. This all started when you read somewhere that even during the pregnancy your baby can feel your emotions. Nonetheless, you shouldn’t feel this way. It could’ve just been a simple joke, but it seemed… More than that.

“What do you mean? Don’t you know?” Yuzuha questioned with an awkward smile. The gloominess that overtook the atmosphere had you feeling even more anxious like a giant hole was eating you away. You felt on the brink of tears, you don’t know why, but you knew something was wrong. All you could do was shake your head, eyes pleading for her to tell you what happened. When Yuzuha adverted her eyes from your gaze, you looked at Hakkai who did the same.

Moments of gloomy silence before you decided to break it, the feeling was quickly eating you away. You just couldn’t take it anymore – “Guys… What’s going on?” You could sense the fear in the two, Hakkai began to sweat as Yuzuha fidgeted with her shirt. His thumb gave him comfort, biting away at the nail.

“W-We can’t…” Yuzuha spoke quietly. A hushed tone is full of secrets. She was afraid, not even afraid. She was terrified. You watched as her skin turned pale and from this angle, you could see the quiver in her lips.

“You can, you can trust me. Both of you guys, you know that.” Your warm arm gave her a sense of safety on her shoulder.

A whimper of a giggle from the agitated woman. “Hell...” Hand palming her face, “Where do I even start?” She finally looked at you, a broken smile with watery eyes. You were so close to crying right then and there, but you couldn’t. You don’t even know what happened.

Maybe a part of you wishes that you didn’t know that you didn’t ask. But that would be selfish of you. Selfish to want to continue your ignorant bliss, your happy marriage without this deep feeling of disgust, hatred, and fear. How could he do something like that and keep it hidden? You intently listen to Yuzuha and the occasional chime from Hakkai, you watched as emotions spewed out of them in various forms as they retold their story, reliving it through each word. You saw how Yuzuha hit her thigh out of anger with her face scrunched up, how Hakkai who finally sat down next to you kept trembling his leg. Why did you have to ask? Why didn’t you leave it alone? Not even for yourself, but them. For your babies.

Tears were shed from all parties, and hugs and words of comfort were shared from you to them. When it was all said and done, they made you promise – promise that you wouldn’t tell him. Much more, promise that this wouldn’t change anything between the two of you, to keep your relationship strong for you, for him, for your son. At the moment, you did.

You promised them and you don’t just give out promises to break. You tried to, you did, but all you could see was red. He kept that hidden from you, deliberately. He’s noticed the change in your attitude towards him, how you turn away from his kisses and turn down his affection.

“Are you doing okay, my love?” He would hold you from behind, hands under your quickly growing belly. He would kiss your neck as his eyes stared at yours through the mirror, you felt disgusting. You refused to meet his eyes, bristles of the brush going through your hair were what you tried to focus on, even when his kisses got progressively rougher – you couldn’t ignore him for long. Gently you removed his hands from your belly and shifted from his grasp.

“I’m fine.”

He tried to chalk it up to the pregnancy, but this was different. This wasn’t a mood swing because of a child, this was pure hate. It was confirmed tonight, coming home from a long day at work to a quiet home. All the lights were off except for the one in the dining room where you sat. No music, no pointless noise. Just you and your thoughts as you rubbed your stomach. He undid his tie as he walked into the dining room, so many questions filling his already frantic mind.

“Beloved?” He questioned you, but more about the suitcase that rested by the legs of the chair.

“Why didn’t you tell me?” Full of so many emotions, mostly hurt when you questioned him. You try to hold back your tears and the shaking of your legs.

“Tell you what, my love?” He stepped closer to you with uncertainty.

“What you did…” Your long pause gave him time to respond.

“What I did– “ But you refused to let him play dumb, not anymore.

“To Yuzuha and Hakkai. You hurt them? Put your hands on them? You…” Your voice began to break at your last word, a dry swallow, and a precarious deep breath in – “You abused those poor kids?”

“Y/n….” His worst nightmare came to life; you finding out what he did as a teenager and him having no way of explaining it to you because not even he understood why he did it.

“You couldn’t have expected me to stay in the dark forever, could you? To stay ignorant to what you did?” You unsteadily scoff. “But that’s what you wanted right – for me to stay in the dark. That’s why you never told me. Because you knew. You knew! You knew I would never have pursued a relationship with you!” Your voice raised the more you talked about it, sadness turning into anger during this confrontation.

His fist clenched, lips contorting as he harshly bit them; “They told you?”

“Yeah. They did… They told me everything, Taiju. How could you?” Head held down; your voice lowered into a quieter tone. At this moment, Taiju felt his entire world crash. He’s always been regretful for what he did, for the actions he committed, the sins against his siblings – he will never forgive himself for that. And seeing you, so disappointed and disgusted that you refused to look him in the eyes, he never felt worse.

“I was angry…” His large hand against your knee as he kneeled in front of you. “I was young, I didn’t know how to raise them properly. There are many things I would change if I could.” His hand reaching to hold your defeated head – tears dripping down your cheeks with silent weeps. All you could think was “how could you?”

“But you can’t.”

“And I will live with that regret for the rest of my life, trust me.” You could tell by the look in his eyes, that he regretted everything he did, he said, he regretted not telling you. For a moment, you thought this was something you could fix – at that moment, you felt your son moving in your belly. Ah. You can’t. You can’t risk that, not with him on the way. You remember the fear in Hakkai’s eyes when Yuzuha said that story, how hesitant he was to talk about it – you refused for that to happen to your son. Because all it takes is one bad day…

“You should.” Removing his hand from your thigh. “You should, Taiju. And you should do it alone.” Your smaller hand wrapped around his wrist – he got the message, letting go of your face although reluctant. Turning to the side you grabbed a piece of paper that rested on the chair next to you, sliding the paper over to Taiju on the table. The sliding sound of the paper was too much reminiscent of the sound in those heartbreak movies, where the wife is finally fed up with her husband. Those stupid sob movies you forced him to watch. And she would repeat those dreaded words, the ones that were the most terrifying to Taiju. He knew it was inescapable, but he still prayed. Prayed that you wouldn’t do the same thing those women did to their husbands.  

“I want a divorce.”
