Flashback...
This shouldn't be happening. He wasn't supposed to find out but he did. I should have told him and now my relationship was falling apart. "When were you planning on telling me!?" He was mad. No, he was furious. I didn't know how to fix this and frankly, I didn't think it could be fixed. His life was surrounded by justice, he followed rules, enforced those rules, and punished those who broke them. He wasn't supposed to find out, not like this. "Sakazuki you're being unreasonable. I didn't tell you because this is exactly how you would have reacted. It's not a big deal"
That was the wrong thing to say. It only set him off and caused him to start screaming at the top of his lungs. "Not a big deal!? You've lied to me about who you were! Stop acting so damn calm about this!" There was no calming him down. He was past that and all I seemed to do was ignite his flame more with each word. "Sakazuki I never lied to you about anything. The only thing I did was not tell you about my past. It happened a long time ago and you're acting like it was yesterday"
My tone was calm and I expected him to scream back but Sakazuki's tone dropped. "It might as well as happened yesterday. How can you expect me to trust you when you couldn't even trust me enough to know about your past? Three years (Y/n). We've been together for three years. You should have told me earlier" His tone was cold but that scared me more than being screamed at. "Do you love me any less?"
"What?" My words caught him off guard but they shouldn't have. We spent three years together. Three years of seeing each other at our best and worst. He shouldn't have to question what I asked. "Does knowing what I did make you love me any less? Be honest. I can handle it" At first, he only stared at me but he did eventually speak just not the words I expected to hear. "I don't know (Y/n)" My feelings for him were clear but hearing him doubt himself I didn't want to hear it. "I can't do this with you... I'm going to spend the night with my brother"
My back turned to him although before I could leave the room, he said something that made my chest hurt. It was like he took a knife to my heart but he never touched me, he didn't have to. "If you walk out that door don't bother coming back" My back remained to him, I couldn't bring myself to look at him. I couldn't risk seeing the way he was looking at me. I could picture it in my mind, the way he looked at everything he hated. A look of pure hate, eyes like ice, void of life.
"W-What?" My voice was starting to crack. "You heard me" Those words echoed in my head and in that moment my composer fell apart. My emotions spilled out but I remained facing away. I couldn't bring myself to look at him, it would only make this worse. "You know what? Go fuck yourself Sakazuki! I wasted three years of my life with you! My brother was right about you!"
'Slam'

A Few Hours Later...
It had been hours but Sakazuki never called and I didn't want to swallow my pride enough to reach out to him. Was there even a point in trying at this point? His words were clear and if he was sorry, he would have called. "Cheer up (Y/n). You don't need him anyway. There's plenty of fish in the sea and better-looking ones too" It was too soon for him to be joking although that was always my brother's nature. A man lacking empathy, cold as ice, and willing to kill those who opposed him but never once had he hurt me the way Sakazuki had.
Sakazuki radiated heat like no other although how could my mind only be met by a wall of ice? How could this one fight destroy what we had? I didn't understand, I couldn't. "If you care so much about this man you can always reach out. Three years was a long investment" He was trying to help but his suggestion wasn't an option. "You didn't hear his tone. I think he was serious" The moment was heated however I didn't believe he said them by mistake. "Serious about what exactly?"
"He said if I left, I shouldn't bother coming back. Do you think he was serious because I think he was serious? You should have seen the hate in his eyes. He's never looked at me like that before" I didn't see his eyes during those last few minutes but the moment he brought up my past was burned into my memory. The emotion in his eyes was like nothing I had ever seen before. It wasn't how you look at someone you love.
"Fufufu. If he was serious then he doesn't know what he's giving up. My little sister is the sweetest and kindest person in this city. A rarity to come across these days. He should have thought about those qualities when he stumbled upon those ancient records of something that wasn't even your fault. Did he even read the records? Anyone w-" Doflamingo shouldn't be defending me. I didn't even tell him the whole truth. Would he look at me the same way if he knew the truth? "Doffy... you don't know what happened"
"(Y/n), what aren't you telling me?"
"I'm so sorry"

One Year Later...
Sakazuki hadn't reached out once in this whole year but it was for the best. I didn't know how to face him. However, living with my brother was starting to take its toll on me and today was no different. He had done it again. When I found the man, I was going to kill him there was no question about it. "Doflamingo!? Where the hell are you!? When I find you, you're a dead man!"
"Calm down, I'm right here. You look adorable in that dress. Now put on your shoes we have a wedding to crash" He dropped a pair of shoes at my feet although I remained still as I thought over what he had said. "Wedding? Who's wedding?" Something like crashing a wedding was beneath the man, he had better things to do in his free time. "Fufufu. You should really read the reports the family types up. They put all kinds of tasty information in them and the topic of the month is your lost love. He's marrying some bimbo who's not you. I can't allow that. You'd never leave my house and frankly, you've overstayed your welcome"
My skin became clammy when he spoke but I tried to distract myself. "Did you just call me a bimbo?" He didn't seem impressed by my attempt to get away from the subject. "Not the point (Y/n)" I could see he was trying to do some good deed although Doflamingo wasn't there that night. If Sakazuki wanted to marry someone else that was his right. "Why should I be the one to ruin his happiness? He found someone else to love and it's not me. I walked out on him Doffy"
"Don't you still love him?" That didn't matter. It mattered a year ago when I left him and never as much as called. "I still walked out on him Doffy. What if I make a complete fool out of myself and he shatters my heart into a thousand pieces in front of half the police department?" I wanted to stay home but I knew Doflamingo wasn't about to let this go. "If that happens leave it to Doffy"
"I hate when you start referring to yourself in the third person. Something bad always happens when you do that"
"Fufufu. Doffy knows"

Present...
"I object to this marriage!" The words had already left my lips there was no taking them back and as the crowd shifted their focus on me, I only stared forward. Sakazuki was standing right there. A few feet away at most although I couldn't find the courage to take a single step. The night from a year ago was replaying in my mind. Why was I here in the first place? He didn't love me. His actions that night spoke for themselves. So, why was I here?
"Someone escort her out of here! She's ruining my wedding!" Sakazuki's lips hadn't moved but when I shifted my attention to the bride, I could see she was furious. When I took in her appearance, the look of pure hate I felt a mix of emotion. She was the woman that Sakazuki had decided to marry. She was the one he had found after me. It wasn't my place to ruin this. He had moved on and I should have let him. I should have left. I should have gone home but before I could turn away my body started to move forward.
I wasn't in control, it was Doflamingo's power. My body walked forward until I was a foot or two away from Sakazuki. My head tilted until I met his eyes although I didn't find anger. No, they were the same eyes that looked at me every day for three years. The same eyes that looked at me with such love but that couldn't have been directed at me. No, he was marrying another. The love was for her, not me.
"You came back"
