Xavier

It was the first time I’d see him cry. Xavier’s tears ran down his cheeks while looking up at the stratosphere. The stars seemed to shine bright for him, as Xavier turned towards me, he held my hand close to his chest where his heartbeat was. Almost as if he didn’t want to let go, I then looked up at the same starry sky that he was staring at a few moments ago. A shooting star appeared suddenly, my eyes never leaving it as I spoke.

“Did you make a wish?” I inquired, wiping his tears away while watching as he drew me closer.

“Yes, of course I did”

“What did you wish for?” His eyes were glossy as Xavier responded, brushing stray hairs away from my face.

“I wished..to have you by my side, always.” I chuckled, hitting his chest slightly as Xavier watched with an amused face.

“You’re so silly! Of course I’m going to be here forever, do you ever doubt it?” More tears streamed down his face, sitting close to the gravestone while placing some white lilies, whispering his final goodbyes

“Promises don’t last forever after all..but I’ll be waiting somewhere, if the stars allow us to meet again”

Rafayel

“Why are you crying Raf?” I asked, brushing some tears away from his face. Rafayel was pouting slightly as he kept me close, waves crashing against the shore, the only sound surrounding us.

“Who said I was crying?” He spoke, voice cracking as evidence of what he felt at the moment. My hands took hold of his shoulders, leaning against his chest while Rafayel looked at the many seashells that washed up from the current waves. I then grab his chin, pulling him down to see his eyes a bit red from all the crying.

“Your eyes say otherwise, Rafayel. Tell me, what troubles you?” Rafayel then pressed up a conch shell against my ear, allowing me to hear the sounds of the ocean while falling asleep on his shoulder. Waking up minutes later to see that I was still in his arms, a vice grip around my waist supported my body up, almost as if he was afraid of losing me.

“I don’t want to ever forget you, please, stay” My gaze falls upon the necklace around my neck, taking it off and wrapping it around Rafayel’s while smiling

“I’m not going anywhere Raf, I’m sure of that. '' The water felt cold around Rafayel’s body as he submerged himself in the depths of the ocean, trying to keep the memory of them alive, holding the necklace around him softly while staring into the vast sea.

“If only I hadn’t let you go, my beloved”

Zayne

Watching the northern lights while Zayne cried was such a rare sight to see. The always stoic doctor had been reduced to nothing but shambles at my presence, I smiled, hoping it would comfort him as Zayne’s body stood beside my own despite the cold.

“Zayne..?” His eyes looked into mine, trying to get a sense of his current reality while I felt my fingertips go cold due to the freezing temperatures.

“Don’t worry about me..but you’re freezing, allow me.” Without even asking for anything, Zayne’s hands intertwined with mine. A small smile made my worries cease a bit while he kissed my now warm hands so tenderly, what did I even do to deserve this type of treatment from him?

“Are you sure? The northern lights are a sight to behold but..” I trailed off, sitting down on one of the chairs Zayne was kind enough to bring for tonight. My hands never seemed to leave his grasp, almost as if he’d never want to let go.

“If you could ask the universe for anything, what would it be?” My sudden question made Zayne’s face light up slightly, looking at me before gazing at the sky and its beautiful spectacular. He took a deep breath before answering.

“I’d ask the universe..for more time; the one thing I didn’t have to save you and now..I’ve lost you once again.” Zayne glanced now at the empty seat beside him that contained the scarf he gifted her, holding back tears while gazing at the nightly sky.

❯Winter, the only season we could be together❮

Characters: Nagisa Ran/gn!reader

C/w: first person pov, mentions of death, illusions (?), fluff, bitter/happy ending, fiction (magic), Rei portrayed as the grim reaper, story based on the shuffle unit ‘La Mort’ and their song ‘Noir Neige’, ritsu is mentioned at some point

A/n: I’ve been writing long fics lately so..hope you guys enjoy <3 Nagisa is like my fav after Madara i love them 🤭 (edit; I decided to repost it again since it was private for a while due to it not having much recognition but yeah!)

Winter; The one season I longed for the most. Yet, I always ended up lost in what is the familiar pathway of my family’s cemetery. Some people would break in often at the beautiful abandoned church, far from our business center but hidden within the forest grounds. A voice from within the building made me speechless. Opening the church’s door with a small creak sound, there he was, the most beautiful man I’d ever met. His long, soft, curly white hair, bounced softly with each note he played skillfully on the piano. My presence didn’t go unnoticed, the man’s eyes red and dull, stared into my e/c ones, taking a step back I slipped due to the ice that had melted and dripped onto the hard-stone floors

“Are you okay?” Without realizing, his hands helped me up, the guy was taller than I had seen when I first arrived

“I’m alright, thank you..I’m Y/n, my family owns the cemetery but, I think they’ve never cared for this church, it’s abandoned after all..”

My words made him interested in hearing more, he grabbed my hand, allowing me to sit down on the bench he was playing in the piano a while ago. The place looked neat, for an abandoned building, it seemed..cleaned up?

“Oh, I see..I hope it’s not a bother for me to play music in here?” I smiled, his eyes wondering around before speaking again “I’m Nagisa” Moving aside and patting the seat beside me, Nagisa smiled, realizing I wanted to hear him play

“Your singing and how you play the piano is really beautiful , I want to hear you again, please?”

His sigh made me a bit uneasy but he agreed. It felt so surreal; I didn’t even notice falling asleep on Nagisa’s shoulder. His eyes showed a panicked look, suddenly being shaken up, I groaned, still tired as he spoke

“You should go back home..it’s not safe around here” Without thinking twice, Nagisa led me outside of the church, letting me go home. But I couldn’t help think why I felt so sleepy while being there..

The days are long and the nights go by so quickly, why was the ending of winter like this? Another stroll through the lifeless cemetery, a figure stuck out to me, what seemed to be two brothers glaring at each other, one of them looked..sad, apologetic even, the other handed him a pomegranate, walking away and leaving his brother alone. As I stepped close, the tombstone’s last name looked familiar..’sakuma’..suddenly, the man stood up, walking my way as I stood there, almost frozen while he spoke

“So you’re the (l/n’s) oldest child..” I nodded, looking at him as he handed me the pomegranate his brother had given him earlier

“My apologies, I’m Rei, Rei Sakuma, you must be Y/n”

“You’re right..do you know my family?” I asked, walking alongside him as we approached the old church, entering as my eyes caught a glimpse of the piano that was now..damaged? It didn’t look playable anymore, how was that even possible?

“Somewhat”- he continued-“The Sakuma’s and your family had a pact of sorts, a peace agreement. Is..everything alright? You seem upset..” My hand touched the piano keys, dust particles collecting on my fingertips as Rei watched.

“Is it..fixable?” One simple question was enough for Rei to comprehend that I have been here before. He gracefully came closer, as soon as his hand touched the piano, it regained it’s old state. Was he even real? Rei smiled, as if hearing my thoughts while opening one of the glass windows. Not noticing how cold it was, he inquired

“Oh, so you’ve been here before?” I didn’t even realize I was nodding until I sat down on the same bench I did weeks ago, when..Nagisa was around. Now that spring was arriving, I didn’t see sight of him anywhere. At least Rei was here..or was he really?

“Only once, but that was four months ago or so, another guy was present at the time, I’m surprised he’s not here”

Rei hummed, deep in thought just as he sat down beside me. He looked at me before asking

“Would you mind if I play something?”

“Not at all..be my guest” A soft melody infused the room, the same one that Nagisa had played the first time we met. I placed my hand on top of his, stopping Rei from continuing as he looked at me

“Can you teach me that song? It’s so lovely, I’d love to play it when I have the opportunity”

Every week I could, I went to keep the place tidy, hoping Nagisa would show up again. Rei on the other hand, came around every two months, helping me learn more about the melody I so loved; Autumn, comforting and sweet..leaves falling down from trees, the crisp air of the afternoon, all indicating that winter was once again arriving soon. After all, it’s been one year since I’ve last seen Nagisa, making my way to the church, now painted and given a new glow, I spotted a letter that had my name written on the front and a sweater below it.

I sat down on the steps of the building, excited to read the letter, however, nothing was written on it. No message or anything, just a blank paper with my name and the initials ‘N’ and ‘R’. Disappointed, I began doubting if Nagisa would ever come back. That was all I could think of, his smile, his red eyes that passionately stared at the sheet of paper that was on the piano..wait, what? I rushed inside, finding a book that remained on top of the piano. It appeared to be a collection of old record songs and such, I took it home with me that day and spent the remaining days of autumn reading and memorizing the musical notes. One fateful night came around when the first snow of this year arrived. I opened the doors of my balcony, holding my hand out, admiring the snowflakes as they slowly landed on my hand, melting as they did.

In the distance, a light illuminated a part of the church, my intuition telling me to follow it. I placed on the sweater I’d found along with the music book and a lantern in hand. Snow started to rapidly build up on the small path, which was weird considering it was the first snow as mentioned earlier. Upon entering the building, the door closed shut and a big gust of wind blew against it, a storm had begun, and I was now trapped inside the chapel. Walking towards the grand piano in the center, I noticed a figure approaching it.

“Nagisa? Is that you?” I called out, yet no response. It was as if I had gone crazy, eventually, I took it upon myself to play the melody I had practiced numerous times. Soon, I sensed someone’s eyes on me, as I turned around..Nagisa stood there, hair down and a new way of clothing; He was dressed in a long, dark navy dress with pants that matched

“Y/n, what are you doing here? It’s too dangerous-“ A hug from my behalf stopped him from speaking, his embrace felt comforting, a warmth like summer; his touch cold like winter.

“I thought I’d never see you again, it’s been over a year, where have you been?” Demanding an answer, Nagisa stepped back, sighing as a figure from the shadows appeared, Rei? It was already strange when I didn’t sense a heartbeat from Nagisa, but even weirder how Rei made himself appear.. it all made sense now, how he ‘magically’ fixed the piano and his mysterious whereabouts

“There’s something you’re not telling me..right?” Rei glanced at the book in my hands, not uttering another word as he came towards me. I started backing up, but fear didn’t rush through my veins, instead, curiosity filled my brain. I tried opening the front door, hutting it as it didn’t budge

“I tried warning you Y/n..I’m sorry” Tears ran down my cheeks, staring at the sweater that was possibly made by Nagisa, instead of giving me a sense of warmth, it felt cold, deathly cold.

“Nagisa, what’s going on..?”He embraced me, it felt as death itself was the one comforting me. Rei held his hand towards me as I let go of Nagisa, he guided me to the center of the church

“It’s a known cliché to wonder around a cemetery, looking at people and thinking they’re real..but you never know when that will actually happen to oneself” A sudden wave of sleepiness dawned over me, as I started to fall asleep, Nagisa prevented me from falling, moving my hair away from my face as he spoke

“I never learned how to love , yet such a kind soul, deserves kind words and actions” With that, his lips brushed against mine, Nagisa’s eyes were teary as we kissed again

“Nagisa..I love you but..nothing is real, isn’t it?” He sighed at my question, guiding me towards the piano, letting me sit beside him and rest my head on his shoulder.

“It..isn’t my beloved. I want to be with you yet..you’re still alive, I can wait years, decades even until we both find each other in the afterlife-“

“No, I want to be with you now. Even if it means dying right now, I’m sure of it” My words shocked Nagisa, meanwhile, Rei already knew exactly what to do. I got up, taking Rei’s hand as I began to drift away from reality. Eventually my body went limp again’t Rei’s, and soon, I found myself back again, now in a different room than before. A bed I’d never seen before, regal from its outdated appearance. At the end of it sat Nagisa who smiled as he saw my awakening

“Do you feel any different? I’m glad it all worked out” I smiled, watching as he got up, walking towards me. Nagisa held my hand, kissing me afterwards as the smile on my face grew

“I don’t feel anything out of the ordinary, I’m sure my parents are worried about me” Without another word in, I got up from the bed, looking through the window and at the funeral that was being held at that moment

Some moments after exploring the church, I went outside; Rei was already waiting for me as I approached the newly placed tombstone..with my name engraved on it. That same night I went missing, my body had been found at the chapel, lifeless, no bloodstains or cuts around it, from what I heard. My favorite flowers adorned the tombstone, making it look full of life, unlike me.

『✻When his s/o’s shy and anxious in public but clingy and affectionate behind doors✻』

Characters: Wataru Hibiki/gn!reader

C/w: mostly none Wataru is so cute and protective of you its so sweet :(( I loved writing this sm

A/n: HIII tysm for requesting!!! Sorry I haven’t been the most active recently, school started again and everything is a bit of a mess rn but I’m having so much inspiration lately and I also wanna thank you all for the support, following, liking and even reblogging my posts :( it makes me so happy and I’m glad you all are enjoying my works. Also…I might participate in flufftober this year! I’ll make a post in a few days about it so please feel free to request <3 I hope you enjoy this !!

⭑☆✩⭑☆✩⭑☆✩⭑☆✩⭑☆✩⭑☆✩⭑☆✩⭑☆✩⭑☆

Wataru undoubtedly loves Pda, but if his s/o’s shy and has anxiety while going on dates or errands, he’ll minimize it to holding hands, and maybe a kiss on the cheek here and there

He’s really into wearing or having matching stuff, like phone cases, outfits, anything that comes into mind

His ideal type of dates are definitely going to a theater or an art museum. Especially if you’re a bit fidgety in public, he’ll hold onto your hand as you both walk watching the exhibitions or sitting together and enjoying a wonderful show.

However, he’s very surprised when you change moods around him when you’re alone together. So, he enjoys every chance he can at receiving your affection

Absolutely loves it when you’re clingy and he’s clingy himself so..prepare for a night of cudding and kisses

Wataru notices how you act around his friends or people you really don’t like, and smiles at the thought of your face after having to deal with anyone you’re not comfortable with

He draws the line when he sees people talking bad about you; for being “too quiet” , he makes sure to always lend a shoulder when times are rough or if you’ve had a bad day in general. And would not hesitate to take action if things escalate

Wataru has a special seat for you in the theater, everytime the teather club holds an activity, he always reserves that spot for you, so when you’re in the crowd he gets to see you

He understands if you get overwhelmed in public, especially if you’re used to masking emotions to make him happy or at least appear to be, and he reassures you that it doesn’t matter if you’re shy or not, he loves you for who you are

Wataru secretly enjoys the way you cling onto him at home, he gets a bit nervous for the first time when you hugged him fully, not wanting to make things ‘weird’ betwen you both when you started dating

However, now whenever you hug him like that, his arms wrap around your waist as he hugs you back, enjoying how close you both turned out to be.

Cw: fluff, mentions of marriage, crushes, love at first sight (?), mentions of kidnapping, yandere themes…

A/n: This is based off day two of The kid at the back :] hope you guys enjoy!

(E/c) eyes lingered across the room, trying to distract themselves from the crimson orbs that stared at their figure, drawing it with a smile. Portraits aren’t that difficult when you know how to draw, except, their skills were quite rough, unlike Sol who was nearly finishing it, looking back and forth between y/n and his paper. Blush covered part of his cheeks, placing his sketchbook down while locking eyes with them

“Is it done?” Y/n asked, sighing as the bell rung across the hallway

“Not yet, you’ll have to wait until tomorrow” He responded with a soft smile, one they’ve rarely seen the times they saw him.

Going their separate ways, y/n found their group in the hallway making small talk as they arrived. It wasn’t long until Sol and his friend appeared, chatting as Sol’s gaze landed on them. Feeling a bit curious, Y/n excuses themselves, parting away from their friends while approaching Sol.

“You must be Y/n! Sol’s told me about you..he’s right, you are kind of cute..” The guy before them spoke while chuckling as Sol sighed, blushing while glaring at his friend

“Anyways, I’m Hyugo! We were just about to eat lunch on the roof, would you like to join?” Y/n looked back briefly at their group. Perhaps something different wouldn’t be so bad today. Crowe however, noticed their sudden disappearance, his sad gaze lingered as they left with the two boys walking across the small corridor.

“I’d love to..!” Hyugo chuckled as the three of them headed towards the roof. Upon arrival, Sol handed Hyugo a bento box filled with his favorite food. It didn’t take long for them to dig in as Y/n looked around the roof, admiring the city and the view it provided.

“Have you eaten yet, y/n?” Sol inquired, staring at their hands that fidgeted around their shirt. ‘hm, cute’ he thought. The sudden question returned them back to reality while answering.

“I didn’t get to eat anything but it’s okay, I’ll grab something later-“ Before they could finish their sentence, Solivan had already taken out the other box he had saved for later.

“I made three boxes today, just in case Hyugo’s appetite was insatiable so..you can take it”

“Are you sure? I mean..” Without any hesitation, Sol had already opened up the lunch box, handing them the tasty food he prepared while smiling, reaching for some utensils.

“You made this all by yourself? It looks so good..!” Y/n praised, taking the utensils Sol provided for them as Hyugo chimed in, swallowing his food gently while speaking

“Sol’s cooking is the best! He’d make a good househusband, don’t you think?” Hearing this, Sol blushed after seeing them nod, maybe being a househusband for Y/n wouldn’t be such a terrible idea after all..

“I think so too, maybe even one day, we could get married as well” They half-joked, watching as Solivan’s smile widened, taking hold of Y/n’s hand and bringing it forth, kissing their knuckles gently

“I’d..love that, no one could ever keep us apart.” Y/n’s eyes drifted to Sol’s gaze, watching as he pressed his cheek against their hand lovingly. Hyugo was nowhere to be seen as the bell rang. After packing everything up, Sol’s hand remained intertwined with their own

“Me and Hyugo were thinking of ditching class, he wanted to see a movie..what do you think?” Upon reaching the corridor, Y/n turned, facing Sol’s body that nearly towered over theirs while leaning forward

“I..-” Looking back at the door of their next class and Crowe who had suddenly exited the room,y/n nodded “-Fuck it, let’s skip.” With that, Sol escorted them towards their secret escape place, not bothered by the glare Crowe had given him as they left.

Due to Hyugo’s request to see the latest movie in theaters, the trio arrived at the cinema shortly after. The movie itself was great, though all y/n could think about was how close Sol was, his arm in their own while sharing popcorn and some small talk. Solivan was over the moon as he walked with them around the nearby park, Hyugo had retuned home afterwards, saying something along the lines of “I’ll leave you two lovebirds be, see you tomorrow” was spoken from his behalf.

The afternoon sun had already settled down, as colder it got, a shiver ran down Y/n’s spine. Sol noticed this, feeling a bit saddened by the fact he couldn’t lend them one of his jackets. Instead, he opted on holding their hand once again until the remainder of the walk to their apartment. Sol already dreaded the look of their place, if only he could take his beloved back to his home, maybe that way he wouldn’t have to worry for any creepy onlookers. As y/n took their keys from their bag, Sol quietly wished for their lips to mest in a kiss before they would lart ways. In that same moment, they leaned forward, kissing his cheek while entering their apartment

“Thank you for today, hopefully we’ll spend more outings like this soon..!”

“Like a date?” He chimed in, making them chuckle while tilting towards him. Their gaze flickered between his eyes and lips

“I wouldn’t oppose to such idea..goodnight Sol, text me when you arrive home” With a nod, Sol bid his goodbyes and left the apartment complex, his heart racing softly while replaying tge memory of their lips caressing his cheek

“Soon..soon enough you’ll be able to see just how much I adore you, my pumpkin”

 The waves crash along the shore, trying to meet her feet that dragged the sand. He observed her from afar, admiring the girl that always came by at this exact same hour; 6:00pm, such a dangerous hour to be alone, especially at the beach, but that’s why he was looking over her, right? Another shell made its way into y/n’s pocket, longing to belong in her extensive collection of ocean items, though he knew very well that some of the trinkets she collected would be turned into jewelry for the tourist attraction. Her hands pressed against the big rocks in the ocean, nearly diving into deep waters as she let herself breathe in the crisp salty air from afar. It was difficult to even stand still due to the waves crashing against her body; the moon was rising and so were the waves, making everything dangerous.

She knew this, deciding to ignore that gut feeling telling her that something or someone was lurking over her, almost as a protector but more of a stalker in her opinion. Y/n decided to rush back to the shore, grabbing the bag she nearly forgot to retrieve last time she was there; one last look was made towards the ocean, that's when she saw it..a figure laying upon a rock, almost like the same mythical creature she had read about in her old childhood books of fictional tales. Even from a distance, she could see the glow in his eyes, almost hypnotic as she made a run for it.The man laughed, she looked so cute when in fear, they’d meet sooner than he expected. Back home, y/n locked the doors, windows and walked almost anxiously towards her room, where she dialed her grandmother’s phone number, hands shaking as she spoke.

“I saw him.”

 Insomnia welcomed y/n into a world of spiraling ideas of her accident; the one in which she met the same merman she saw today, or was it yesterday? Sleepy eyes drifted towards the conch that sat neatly on one of her shelfs along with some ocean plushies. Her tired body got up from the bed and grabbed said object, pressing it towards her ear to hear the sounds of the ocean; memories crowded her mind. The first time she and the handsome stranger met was when y/n ended up lost in sea after her family’s boat crashed against a big wave. Without realizing how she ended up in the middle of the ocean, a stranger was already helping her into shore, but it wasn’t just anyone, his name was Rafayel.

The same man that stared at her from afar in admiration had grown up to devote himself to finding her, no matter if it took weeks, months or even years; and he fulfilled his promise. It was fate that intertwined their lives up to this moment without y/n knowing of the vow she made that same day. Y/n looked at the mark that she had on her wrist, it was as if a symbol of the union they made that day. She couldn’t help the tears falling down from her cheeks, without any reason for why she was crying, y/n wiped them off, feeling a wave of sleepiness over her as she decided to rest at 2:00am. 

 Yasumi Sanctuary, the “mythical place” that many tourists loved for its legends and magical stories, was y/n’s home. Ever since she was a child, she hated tourists flooding her home land as if it was their vacation resort, years later she understood the benefits of selling these handmade trinkets and jewelry while making up stories for good profit. Of course, the ever oblivious tourist bought it with a grin on their faces while thinking they got something out of this world, she couldn’t help but laugh at that. Some kids never believed her stories, telling y/n her crappy fairy tales weren’t for “grown” kids like them, little did they know of the story she had in store for them today.

“Ugh, don’t tell me it’s another one of those stupid stories!” The youngest of the kids, Kai, said, arms crossed as he pouted; looking at the other kids who sat beside him and y/n, awaiting for her best story yet to tell.

“Actually, have you heard of the merman’s curse?” She asked, staring at the kids who tilted their heads in curiosity or simply muttered a small ‘no’. The grin on her face widened softly while taking a small breather.

“It all begins with a merman who fell in love with a human girl. He observed her from a distance wishing he could court her properly, it was love at first sight. However, due to their differences, he could only daydream of the life he wanted to have with her. One day, his dream came true; by a blessing of the gods, he was able to change to whichever form he desired. The girl didn’t know the man properly, and upon seeing him for the first time, she declined his proposal. One thing she didn’t know was the big mistake she was about to commit. Without her knowing, she went to the beach that same night, plum-colored eyes hypnotized her to walk towards the ocean. She cried and screamed for help, but it was all in vain, the merman lost what he longed for so long. Legend says that he lurks the cold waters at night, looking for a girl who will be willing to spend the rest of her life with him, the end”

She looked from the sky down to where the kids sat; looking at her through blurry eyes, some scared and others crying. Y/n apologized but the children reassured her that they were okay, which didn’t help at all in how she felt. Closing time for the stall ended up being at dawn due to the many tourists that wanted to hear more stories; her head felt heavy upon entering her home, all she wanted to do was sleep and never wake up to know if the legend of her life was about to become a reality. 

Days passed and a storm was approaching Yasumi Sanctuary. Shops closed early but she had no problem staying by herself in her cozy home, after all, she could finally take a break from dealing with so many people from time to time. Since the storm was occurring today, y/n looked outside her window to see the raging waves crashing harshly against some rock formations. She wondered if Rafayel would be alright during all this, though she has never worried about him, but there’s a first for everything, right? The weather reports continued to bring information as she sat down on the couch of her living room, staring at the sea from the window; it had been raining for the past hour now, and it sure wasn’t stopping until a couple hours later or the next day. Suddenly, the door knocked; shock and fear were the only things on her mind now but she began wondering who was behind the door. As y/n opened it, her worries left her.

“Rafayel..? But, how-?” Without getting to explain, he made himself a guest at her home, water dripping from his clothes as she sighed in irritation.

“Could you get me a towel?” Rafayel asked, leaning against the door so no more water would go past it.

“Could you be more polite?” She answered, walking to the laundry room and getting a clean towel for him while Rafayel smiled.

“I believe you owe me an explanation..it's not that I don’t know you, but why are you here? And today out of any other days?” He sighed, eventually taking his shirt off while it hit the floor with a small ‘plop’ sound. Y/n quickly turned around, embarrassed at the thought of him undressing himself even though she didn’t want him to get sick..can merman’s get sick though..? “And could you maybe not undress in front of me? Just what kind of person thinks that barging into someone’s home as they please, means that they can do whatever the fuck they want?”

“You wouldn’t want me to get a cold, right sweetheart~?” Rafayel teased, eventually taking off his shorts and placing the towel around his waist; pulling her towards him, y/n could see a small glow in his lilac orbs, almost enticing..

“I..are you avoiding my question..” She muttered under her breath, his chuckle sent shivers down her spine. Rafayel then began exploring her home, memorizing every crook and cranny for the next time he would be there. 

“Is it now a crime that I can’t visit my beloved? It saddens me to see you act like this my dear~” He pouted, almost childish as y/n took a deep breath, watching as he dragged her towards the master bedroom. She was still in a haze from all of this, yet realization hit her as Rafayel pushed her onto the soft, plush mattress.

“Just what are you-?! Rafayel!” Y/n spoke, it was dangerous enough to have a merman this close, especially if the legend was true. Even if the pact was done several years ago, it was all up to her. A kiss would be sufficient to begin the entire process of being together.

“I’m starting what I should’ve done the moment I laid my eyes on you again, you don’t know how long I’ve wanted to make you mine because no one else is perfect for you, no man can touch you like the way that I’m going to.” 

A gasp, and a dream was all it took for her to realize what her destiny was from now on. The way Rafayel had a connection to her dreams was driving her to madness, y/n couldn’t help but think of what it would be if she gave herself to him. Would everything change the moment she loses her virginity to the man she’s bound to love? Of course, it wasn’t a forced love, y/n had feelings for him, or at least she thought she didn’t before. Her hands traveled towards the hem of her shorts, that dream of her and Rafayel in bed had her going. It’s not like she hasn’t masturbated before, but it would be the first time y/n thought of Rafayel like that.Her cellphone ringed, interrupting the session she was about to begin as y/n picked up the phone with a sigh.

“Hello?” She asked whoever had called her from an unknown id.

“Are you still laying in your bed after last night’s dream? Pretty real wasn’t it?” She nearly gasped as Rafayel’s honeyed voice spoke over the phone, she looked outside the window, admiring the calm waves of the evening.

“Rafayel, stop playing with my feelings like that” Y/n demanded softly, getting up from her bed and picking out an outfit for whatever reason her intuition said so.

“Get ready, I’ll be there in 10. Then I’ll explain anything you want me to.” That was all the motivation she needed to make some of an effort in getting ready. As she walked outside after briefly closing her front door, she was met with Rafayel holding what seemed to be a basket. Without exchanging words, they began walking towards the beach, walking until reaching a place she didn't see the last time she was there. It was a hidden sight from all tourist attractions, as if meant only for them to be in and embrace. Rafayel then took a blanket, placing it neatly on the sand, laying down beside her as they both gazed into the ocean.

“I have something for you.” He said, quickly taking out a box full of things like trinkets and gems, some coming from where he lived, surrounded by the sublunar cove. The more she discovered the box, the more she fell in love with Rafayel. Y/n eventually took out a seashell necklace, the same one she had lost that day of the accident. 

“You still have this? I never knew you saved this for me..” He chuckled, taking her hand and kissing the top of it like a gentleman. His eyes trailed across her face, admiring her hidden features and how her hair blew with the wind. Rafayel knew it was meant to be, after all, he had been waiting for years, rejecting other mermaids because none of them cared for him the way that she did when y/n found him on the shore years after their first encounter. 

“Do you still remember the day you saved me? I was on the verge of death yet still, you took care of me.” He asked, seeing her smile put him at ease. She looked up at the sky, recollecting her thoughts before speaking.

“I should be the one asking that! I never realized it was you until days after that I remembered those purple eyes of yours, gazing into mine..”Y/n trailed off, finding herself staring at Rafayel who leaned towards her, grabbing her hand while kissing the inner part of it.

“To think, we are to be together; that is, if only you wish it to be that way” Rafayel placed her hand on his shoulder, bringing her close as she smiled, grabbing his chin while leaning in.

“Maybe I do, but..” She sighed, leaning back from Rafayel as he allowed her to have some momentary space.

“What is it? You know you can tell me anything, right?” Y/n nods, sitting closer to him while taking hold of his own hands that now rested on her waist.

“I think I’m ready, Rafayel. I’m just scared it’ll hurt.” He nearly melted at her sudden shyness, so he was right about y/n saving herself for him? Oh he was enjoying his already, with no hesitation, Rafayel grabbed y/n bridal style, heading back to her home as she looked back.

“What about your stuff?” She asked, now in the comforts of her bed, Rafayel closed the door behind him, approaching the bed slowly.

“Don’t worry, someone I know will take good care of them. As for now, I promise to be gentle, okay?” 

“I trust you, Rafayel.” Y/n leaned forward, kissing Rafayel and catching him off guard as he pressed his body against hers, grabbing her waist as she felt his raging boner through his pants. It didn’t take long for him to push her body against the mattress. His lips trailed across her neck and collarbone, inching to reach her chest as y/n grabbed Rafayel’s hair softly. 

“I’ve been waiting for you to say that..” His kisses became more persistent, soon taking off her shirt softly, almost as if she were a porcelain figure..

 “You know..” She paused, taking in how his eyes stared at her own with a fiery passion that told her things were about to take a wild turn for the better. “I’m glad my first will be with you” Y/n said, unbuttoning his shirt with a small grin as Rafayel undid his belt. But just then, doubt started filling her mind. Was this the right thing to do or was she just hypnotized by Rafayel? 

 “Don’t..say that” He mumbled quietly, sharply sighing as Rafayel’s cheeks turned a rosy color. She chuckled softly while sitting on his lap, holding his face and coming closer, almost whispering in his ear.

 “Why not~? Afraid of what might happen afterwards?” Y/n asked, stroking his dick, teasing the slit while licking it, a bit too slow for his liking. He moaned, somewhat louder than he normally would. However, Rafayel was quick to grab her lower body, turning it around and pressing it against his face, in a way that she faced his cock and he, her wet cunt.

 “Not at all..you don’t know how long I’ve wanted this..years maybe?” Rafayel said, admiring the way y/n’s cute panties clung onto her cunny, he couldn’t wait more as he ripped them apart, chuckling at her small gasp while licking a small stripe along the folds of her pussy.

 “That was my favorite pair..fuck..” She pouted, going back to sucking his cock as he returned the favor towards her pussy. After a few moments, y/n got off his face, straddling his cock in a quick movement, staring as he grabbed her ass, trying his hardest to not cum right there while her pussy engulfed his hard cock. 

 “I’ll..ah, I’ll get you more, anything you want, my muse.” He moaned, watching as their lips crashed suddenly, tongues meeting each other while their bodies followed. Hips pushing forward with such intensity that left her gripping part of his hair and embracing Rafayel’s body.

 “F-faster..” She whispered, dragging the word later on with a whine as Rafayel watched with curiosity, huffing in annoyance playfully while speaking.

 “And I thought you wanted to take things slow? Seems I was wrong, humans can get addicted to sex so quickly it amazes me” Y/n rolled her eyes unintentionally as he chuckled, soon enough stopping and pulling out, moaning while painting her folds white on the exterior, grinning widely. He then pulled the sheets over their sweaty, naked bodies (after briefly taking care of her that is) that were too worn out to take a shower at an ungodly hour of the next day. She pressed her body against Rafayel’s side, holding his arm while whispering

 “I love you, goodnight” He didn’t have enough time for her to hear him say it back, although Rafayel pressed a small kiss onto her forehead before drifting off to a deep slumber..

It seems the curse in the legend didn’t technically occur; it broke. The merman lived a happy life with his betrothed, being able to change between a merman and human had its perks. Rafayel gifted her something no man could ever replace, not even in an afterlife. He held up a beautiful Tahitian pearl necklace so she could admire the beautiful jewelry he bought for her.

 “I saw this and thought of you my muse, you should wear but the finest things in life that I will make sure to provide for so that you are well taken care of” His cheeky grin made y/n’s heart melt, she kissed him briefly and with the help of Rafayel, the Tahitian pearl necklace rested on her neck beautifully. 

 “You spoil me too much..not that i’d ever complain.” She laughed, oh how he loved her laugh and the way she felt comfortable around him..Rafayel was head over heels for y/n, he still couldn’t believe that, someone like her was willing to spend the rest of her life with a merman who saved her life. Not only was it because of gratitude, but merely a coincidence with fate brought them together in the end.
