My Muse || READER X RAY || The Promised Neverland

⭐My Muse || Chapter Eighty Three

"Hey," Ray said, taking a seat next to me. I was in the library, reading some children's stories. I was bored, and Zack was out on a hunt with Don, Emma and Nigel. Yuugo and Lucas were spending some quality bro time together, so a book seemed like the best way to kill time. I'd thought about asking Ray if he wanted to hang out, but he'd spent enough time watching my near dead body sleep. But here he was! I blushed, pushing the book over my face. "Hello..." I whispered, glancing at him. Ray looked different, but the same. "What's wrong, weirdo?" He laughed, flicking my forehead. I winced at his touch. His smile... Was so cute... 

"Y'know how you called Zack my boyfriend?" He nodded, reading his own fairytail. "He's... He's not... officially my boyfriend..." His eyes lit up, his cheeks turning light pink. "We-We've kissed and shit like that... But we're... We're not dating..." He put his book down, leaning closer to me. His eyes were locked onto mine, a strangely seductive glare on his face. His long fingers curled over mine, pulling my book shield away from my lips. I could feel his warm breath on my chin. "I've missed you so much..." Ray's other hand was tracing my cheek, eventually resting underneath my chin. Was... Was he going to... Kiss me? Those stone gray eyes softened, growing closer and closer to mine. I've missed you too, Ray. I wrapped my arms around his neck, letting him push his lips onto mine. I forgot how this felt. Ray's kisses. Gentle but forceful, an equal exchange of pushing and pulling. His bangs brushed against my face, his hands around my waist. "Mhm..." I moaned, as he pulled me onto his lap. God, his tongue. His big hands, his warm chest. This stupid black haired idiot made me go crazy. I pulled myself away for a breath of air. We both looked like messes. He pulled me into a hug, still sitting comfortable on his legs. "Was... Was that okay?" He said, muffled in my shoulder. "You know anything you do is perfect." I replied, kissing his forehead. I brushed his bangs aside, squishing his cheeks. "W-What are you doing? You weirdo?" I laughed, pinching his nose. "I just missed this. Being with you." 

Being with Ray... Sitting with him, cuddling with him. This is... What lovers do, right?

Wait. Ray... Ray and I... "Gak-!" I jumped off his lap, stumbling into a corner. "You... You kissed me!" I pointed at him, covering myself with the book again. I probably looked like an idiot. He glared at me confusedly. "You kissed me back!" I did, didn't I? That flustered look on his face was so cute... "I thought- I thought you didn't like me..." I stuttered, lowering the book. He stepped towards me, opening his arms. "Why wouldn't I like you, stupid?" 

This- This was way too much for me. I took one last look at his confused face before jumping out of the room. I barged into Gilda and Emma's where the green haired girl was knitting quietly. She shrieked, dropping her needles. I apologized, picking them up for her. "Can you... listen to my story?" I asked, sitting at the foot of her bed.
