"where are we going?", y/n asked

"my hotel", he replied as they got into the car and driver he'd paid to follow him around.

"why?"

"it's fancier"

"of course", she rolled her eyes

"it has good dessert"

"sold"

"you seem nervous", he said as she looked outside the window

"yeah i am", she admitted

"should i tell him? wtf happens if i tell him i love him? idk. but lack of communication is what brought us here in the first place"

"why?"

"i..", she looked ahead at the driver and rolled up the divider between the front and back seats. "have something to tell you"

"oh fuck now i can't even go back. i should just tell him. come on y/n, fucking have some confidence"

"should we stop for a drink?", he asked, "to calm the nerves?"

"no thank you i'm fine-"

"my nerves, i'm talking about my nerves"

"okay, one drink"

they were sitting in the last two seats facing the bar counter, talking about nonsense. anyone who saw them would've never guessed that they were the world's two strongest shamans.

"weren't we supposed to talk?", y/n asked, resting her chin in the palm of her hand, "why are we drunk?!"

she knew exactly why. it was to delay telling him she loved him. she was still scared of saying it out loud.

but all thoughts were blurred together right now, and she didn't feel so scared anymore. whoever said 'liquid courage' works knew what they were talking about.

"i don't know", he shook his head, "how did we even start drinking?"

"something about honesty....", she thought out loud, "and then.... and...."

"....."

"oh right! i've got it", she pressed a finger to his lips, "shhhhh let me explain"

"hmmm", he was hardly paying attention because he was so focused that her finger was on his lips
