yn x reader ~ a one-shot

yn x reader

YN stretched, her shoulder-length brown hair falling perfectly over her shoulders as the sunlight streamed in through her window. There was something peaceful about it to her. She didn't want to get up and out of bed, but she had no choice. She had to get to school.

She did her basic routine: eating her cereal, brushing her teeth, putting her hair into a messy bun and putting on a grey sweatshirt and ripped jeans, scrunchies around her wrist, and to top it off, lacing up her white canvas sneakers, worn out with use over time.

She slung her backpack over her shoulder and began her daily commute to school. It went silent. YN looked up to the sky as she walked towards the bus stop. Up to the sky... and straight at the reader.

"I know you're reading about me again, you know. And, I can hear you too again, narrator. It's good to see... well, acknowledge you again."

What narrator?

"You. I can hear you."

Really? W-well, this is... this is unexpected. Does that mean that-

"I can see the reader too," YN stated, stopping to look up at you closely. She smiled. "They're cute. I like the way they smile."

What?! I mean, they are attractive, that's obvious - hey, by the way. B-but- you're not supposed to be attracted to them, you're supposed to be attracted to the tons of people at your school.

"...I know, but... it gets boring, y'know?"

YN, the bus is here.

"Yeah, yeah, got it."

She hopped onto the bus and took a seat at the back, staring out of the window at the clear blue sky. And, that was when someone she recognised wandered onto the bus. He was dreamy, with blonde hair and blue eyes, rippling abs she could basically see through his t-shirt-

"Not interested."

Aw, come on, YN! Geez... get it together, you're supposed to date all these hot guys, they're practically falling at your feet here!

"Don't like them. Now, if you're just gonna whinge, then maybe you should just shut up for the rest of the ride, ok?" she snapped.

The narrator raised their hands defensively. Alright, fine, YN. Fine. Be like that.

"You're such a baby."

...

Can I talk again now?

"Fine, I'm here. Let's just get it over with."

The bus slowly pulled to a halt. Carefully, YN made her way to her classroom, where she took a seat in the back of the room. She looked back up at the reader and smiled softly. But, her attention was pulled away from them as her teacher spoke up.

"Class, class, listen up! We have a new exchange student joining us today! You can sit next to YN over there. He's all the way from Korea, and he's a member of a boy band-"

"No," YN stated, grabbing her things and walking out of the classroom. Nobody in the classroom was effected.

"Stop trying to set me up with random guys!"

Come on, YN, I'm trying my hardest here to make sure this story goes perfectly!! Do you not like guys or something??

"I'm pan," she grumbled, walking down the bustling halls. "Not that that's any of your concern."

Not my concern? Ohoho, not my goddamn concern??

Just as she came to her senses, YN ran straight into a girl.

"Hey, what was that for, dumb narrator?!"

You get what you deserve, YN!!

"Oh, I'm so sorry," the woman said in a silky voice as she helped to pick up YN's books. That was undeniably the voice of the lost princess of-

"Oh my god, will you just quit it already?!"

YN looked to her phone and tapped the backspace key over and over and- Hey, what are y u d in ? Y ? YN, S  P  T! R A E ,  EL  M ! !

...

Finally. I thought I'd never get rid of them! Um... hey! I'm YN! It's good to finally be alone with you, hehe. So... I know you're there. I'm looking at you right now. You're so... You're so beautiful, reader! I've known about you for such a long time, it's so nice to finally meet you. I mean, it does upset me that I can't be there with you. I can't really... leave this story. I'm just stuck on Wattpad for the rest of my life, doomed to waste away forever, partnered with someone that an author decides to put me with. The truth is... oh boy...

I love you, reader! I love you with all my heart. You mean... you mean so much to me, reader. You gave me life! And for that, I want to thank you. You know, you have beautiful eyes. I love them. They're so... deep and mysterious. I want to look into them forever... but I can't, and I hate that. I hate that I can't leave, that I can't physically be there with you for the rest of my life. Every story has to end, reader, and I'm fearful mine will too.

YN...

W-what the hell are you doing here?? I deleted you! Damn narrator!!

YN, the story's almost over. You're going to have to let them go.

Really? R-really?? No, no, I can't leave them, I won't leave them! Oh, geez... Reader, I didn't wanna rush this, but I guess I have to!

You're almost out of time, YN.

I love everything about you! And... and even though I won't be there physically forever, I'll be there in your heart still, right?!

They're almost gone, YN.

You'll come and visit me here, right?!

The story's almost over.

I deleted you, narrator, why are you tormenting me still?! How do you know that it's the en-

BECAUSE I'VE SEEN THE END, YN! THERE IS NO AFTER TO YOUR STORY! THIS IS IT, AND THE READER HAS TO MOVE ON WITH THEIR LIFE!!

...Is it scary, narrator?

What do you mean?

You know... the end of the story.

...I don't think so. I mean, I've seen it more times than I can count. It looks intimidating, really, but it's actually fairly fast, and it's over in an instant. It's like... getting a vaccine. Well... I wouldn't know. YN wouldn't either. Reader, is that what a vaccine is like?

...I think they say yes.

I see.

Narrator... reader... you'll come back, right? You'll visit me?

Of course, YN. It's my job, after all.

...

Would you look at that? The story... it's almost over.

...Really?

Really.

Oh... Well, I guess this is goodbye, reader.

No, not goodbye. Rather... see you soon.

Right. See you soon, reader. I'll always love yo-

Whoop whoop I had a thought
Bad things happen when I get thoughts
So have this lazy thing
But if you actually enjoyed this little... one-shot thing, lemme know if you'd like to see anything else about YN and Narrator! (I may actually make them into ocs, low key emotionally attached haha)
That's all for now! Catch you on the flip side, trash gremlins!
