Euphoria {Jotaro X reader}

6. Promise

Jotaro's POV:

Feeling bored, I closed the book I was reading and looked up. All of us were gathered in the living room, each doing their own thing, but It didn't feel right.
Ever since we came back from the restaurant everyone felt uneasy, Y/n went straight to her room and hasn't gone out for hours now.

All of us are probably thinking of the same thing, but we decided to keep quiet about it, we all clearly heard the last word her brother called her; murderer.

She can't be an enemy right..

"Dinner is ready!" Gramps yelled out.

"Oya, what did you prepare for us?" Pol asked, but was ignored.

Gramps scanned around the room then whispered: "Y/n is still in her room?"
None of us replied, it was obvious that she wasn't here.

"Oi jojo," he looked at me: "Go check on her."

I stared at him, not moving an inch.
'Why me?' I thought, but he kept on his gaze at me as if insisting but without a word.

"Yare yare daze.." I muttered making my way up to her room.

'Knock knock' I knocked on her door and immediately said: "Dinner is ready."

There was no response so I was debating whether to speak again or just let go and go back, but right then the door opened revealing her tiny self in front of me.

"Oh okay! I wonder what dinner is going to be.." She spoke up smiling at me, but I knew she was trying hard to hide her real feeling.

We both went to the kitchen, we pulled our chairs and sat down along with everyone else.
Chatters and laughters were heard throughout the dinner time like nothing had ever happened this morning, but I could tell Y/n was still bothered by it.

Once we were finished and the dishes were done, everyone went to their rooms while Y/n remained downstairs alone in the back yard, so I decided to keep her company.

Third person POV:

You faced down deep in your thoughts, expecting everyone to be in their beds by now.

However, the hand holding a cigarette box in front of you showed otherwise. You already knew whose hand it was, you chuckled and drew one from the box.
"Are we smoking buddies now?"

Jotaro handed you a lighter and replied: "It is our little secret."

You lit your cigarette and inhaled, so did Jotaro. You then brought up the necklace that was hidden in your chest and stared at it for some time.

"Beautiful necklace." Jotaro commented, which brought a smile to your face.

"Thanks! it was a present from my little sister." you said still looking at it: "I feel like it's protecting me from something, I'm not sure what exactly so I always wear it. It also makes me feel like my sister is with me.."

You felt comfortable enough around Jotaro so you kept on chatting about anything, you liked his reactions, he seemed interested and amused but definitely not bothered.

You suddenly flinched since the weather has gotten a little colder.
"Should we head back inside." Jotaro asked as he noticed.

You felt kind of sad, because that would mean you'll have to stop talking to him now.

Jotaro observed you for some time, and you not answering his question confirmed that you didn't wanna get back.
"Yare yare daze.."

You felt an extra weight on your shoulders, then realised that he must have covered you using his jacket.

This was new to you, it felt warm.

You blushed, lifted your head and looked at him. It was too dark, you couldn't tell if he was blushing or not, he just tipped his hat.

"Hey jotaro, let's meet here and have a smoke every night." You teased.

"That's only one rotten adult would offer to a teenager."

You giggled: "You were the first who offered me a smoke just a while back."

"Okay." He answered, causing you to be taken aback.
You didn't expect him to agree, yet you felt relieved he did.

Not wanting Jotaro to catch a cold, you stood up, he followed suit.
You headed back inside, once you were in front of your rooms you gave him back his jacket and wished him a good night.

You somehow felt like no nightmares are going to visit you tonight.
