[Weak Hero X Reader] Romance 101 [OLD VERSION]

Recover

"[Your Name] [Last Name]'s operation was a success," The doctor informed Alistair, Donald, Kingsley, and the Daehyeon Boys. "She'll make a full recovery,"

"That's a relief," Alistair sighed.

"However, the trauma from this entire ordeal could possibly result in retrograde amnesia. There's a chance she might not remember only the traumatic event, or she might not remember her entire past," With that said, the doctor left.

"She's a survivor," Alistair claimed. "She's been through these types of things a lot of times, so why would she get amnesia this time?"

"You just jinxed it," Jake said.

Alistair was silent for a moment before he blurted out, "FUCK!"

"Alistair, what if that bastard's henchmen goes after Wifey?" Donald asked. "She's still recovering. She's vulnerable," 'I don't want her to get hurt anymore,'

"I also wanted to quit the life of crime like [Your Name]," Alistair sighed. "But that's impossible. The best I can do is to take control of the underworld,"

"Take control of the underworld?" Kingsley questioned. 

"Just like how nobody wants to mess with Donald since he's Rank 1 on the Shuttle Patch Rankings," Alistair explained. "Nobody would want to mess with the King of the Underworld. I'm not sure if I'll be able to achieve it since I have to go back to the States..." He made eye contact with Donald. "What do you plan to do?"

"Would [Your Name] be willing to forgive me if I disband the Union?" 

"You'll also have to apologize to her friends," Alistair added. 

"I have to apologize to Ben Park?" Donald asked in disbelief. "Why?"

"You were the one who encouraged Hyeongshin to attack Eunjang since they fought against Yoosun, despite the fact that Yoosun was the one that attacked first," Alistair pointed out. "Eunjang was only defending their territory. Jimmy Bae is an idiot for falling for Phillip Kim's plan to pit him against Ben Park. I won't blame you for the Ganghak incident since it was Jared Sun that instigated it, but the fight against Daehyeon is definitely your fault,"

"I don't want to apologize to Ben Park," Donald gritted his teeth. "But if it'll make Wifey happy, I will do it,"

"You know, even if Jake wasn't kidnapped too, she would've still gone to save you," Alistair said. "She does care about you, Donald. The reason she is so against the Union beside you hurting her friends is because she wanted to get away from a life of crime. That's the entire point of her moving to South Korea. If it were only Wolf Keum, Forrest Lee, and Jimmy Bae that had been kidnapped...we'd have left them for dead,"

"That's a bit cruel," Timmy commented.

"We're not heroes," Alistair reminded. "We're mafiosos. She and I are both bloodstained. We will only risk our lives to protect those we care about,"

"Alistair, Thomas Nae is dead so Damon doesn't have a legal guardian now," Kingsley brought up. "Is there anything you can do to prevent him from going into the foster care system? It'd be better for him to stay with Donald and [Your Name] since he's comfortable around him. He just lost his grandfather so it'd be even more stressful to go with strangers,"

"Since you both are hospitalized, I'll try to get my brother to have temporary custody of Damon," Alistair said. "The problem is if I really did jinx it and [Your Name] has amnesia, she might not be considered a fit guardian. I'm not really well-versed with South Korean laws. Worse comes to worse, we bribe them. If that doesn't work, we blackmail them. If that doesn't work, we threaten them,"

A few hours later, [Your Name] woke up."Hey, [Your Name]," Alistair greeted nervously. "You don't have amnesia, right? I really hope I didn't jinx it,"

"Who...who are you?" [Your Name] asked quietly.

"Alistair, you jinxed it!" Eunchan accused. 

But Alistair wasn't worried at all. Instead, he had an unamused expression. "She's faking it. I grew up alongside her. I can see through her acting,"

"Why would you think I had amnesia?"  [Your Name] inquired.

"Trauma like Ran in Captured in Her Eyes," Alistair shrugged. "Good to know that you still have all of your memories. Though, if you did end up with amnesia, I probably would have not let you remember your life in the mafia,"

"How is everyone?" She questioned. "Nobody died, right?"

"Oh, I definitely killed Erik," Alistair claimed. "But no one from the Union died. They each have their own room so nobody gets into an argument with each other. Jimmy Bae's being visited by Jack Kang. Forrest Lee is being visited by the kid that needs to get more sleep and some other guy called Robin Ha. Naksung Fam is visiting their leader. Wolf's being a lone wolf but I think Hwangmo visited him for a bit? Don't worry about the entire incident. I threatened everyone into keeping their mouth shut for the most part and having them go along with the story I came up with,"

"Wifey," Donald gently held her hand. "I'm glad you're okay, but please...don't do something so reckless. You could've died,"

"And you and Jake would've died," [Your Name] pointed out. "If given the chance, I would've done the same thing except I would've been faster and more prepared. There were many times where I could've died. We can't always control when we die,"

"I plan on disbanding the Union at the end of the school year," Donald claimed. "I need to get all the finances and documents together. The companies we work with would probably whine and beg, but getting rid of the Union is the least I could do for you," 'I was too afraid of giving up something I worked hard to build. But I'm done with the Union now. I almost lost you. We were kidnapped because of Manwol's grudge against my union. If getting rid of the Yeongdeungpo Delinquent's Union makes you happy, then I will get rid of it. You, Damon, and I can live as a normal, happy family,'

"Oh yeah, Thomas Nae is dead," Alistair blurted out. "Craton's gonna have temporary custody until you and Donald are out of the hospital and can apply for guardianship. No, the Demonic Knights didn't kill him. He died from an illness. That actually explains why he was always going to the doctor's and needed someone to babysit Damon all the time,"

"Mr. Nae was a good person..." [Your Name] whispered. "He was an amazing grandfather to Damon. Damon had been abandoned by his parents. Mr. Nae didn't have to take him in and could've just dropped him off at an orphanage, but he raised Damon like he was his blood relative,"

The next chapter is the final chapter.

First Meeting

It was late at night. Six year old Alistair Rei was walking home with his older brother. He noticed a small figure huddled up on the side of the sidewalk. Upon getting closer, he saw that it was a young girl. Her skin was sickly pale. Her [Hair Color] hair was disheveled and resembled a bird's nest. Her [Eye Color] eyes were dull and empty. Her breathing was ragged and her breath was visible in the chilly night.

"Where are your parents?" Alistair asked her.

[Your Name] slightly looked up and made eye contact with him, although her expression was still emotionless. "Died last year," Her voice was barely there.

"Come on Alistair," Craton said. "Dinner should be ready. Let's go,"

"I'm taking her with us," Alistair declared.

"You can't just randomly take someone off the streets," Craton told him.

"But you have kidnapped people before," Alistair pointed out. "I want her to live with us from now on,"

Craton crouched down and stared at the girl. "Do you want to live?"

"I...don't know..."

"If you come with us, I'll give you a purpose in life," Craton offered a hand. "You'll train alongside my brother and protect him with your life,"

[Your Name] accepted.
