ENCHANTING DESIRES

y/n woke up in a way more comfortable position than sitting on the ground . she had a wet towel on her forehead and her clothes were also changed into more comfortable ones . she scanned the surrounding only to see mikey walking in with a tray of food . " oh you're awake . " he smiled placing the tray on her side table . he handed her a glass of water which she took with her trembling hands . she gobbled it down , feeling it soothe her throat . " i made you some miso soup and rice . " he stirred the soup and scooped some out with a spoon . " it might not taste that good because i've never really cooked . " he laughed nervously , blowing onto the steaming liquid . y/n had yet to say a word to mikey .

how could he be so nice to her still after what had happened . " say ahh " he held up the spoon infront of her face . she slightly open her mouth , just enough for the warm liquid to seep into her mouth . although it was just simple and plain miso soup , it tasted like heaven . she hasn't ate for two day , so. simple meal meant the world to her , especially when mikey prepared it . " how is it ? " he asked placing the spoon into the soup as he rubbed the nape of his neck , afraid that she wouldn't like it . " i-its... good... " her voice wasn't in the best condition . a small smile formed at the end of his lips . " im glad ... now eat up . " he continued to feed her .

" y-you don't hate m-me ? " she looked down , causing mikey to retract the spoon that was held out infront of her . " why would i ? " " i should have been the one dead... not emma... " y/n felt her voice crack . she still wasn't able to forgive herself for it . " it isn't your fault ... if it wasn't emma it would have been you and how can i live without you... " he tucked a strand of hair behind her ears revealing her face . " but... " he shook his head . " it isnt your fault " he gave a smile to the female to try to convince her that she shouldn't be blamed for emma's death . her heart melted at how sweet mikey was . it brought tears to her eyes , grateful tears .

the next day , emma's funeral was held . everyone was either sobbing or just upset . y/n and mikey sat by each other . y/n who was crying non stop and fiddling with her fingers while mikey just had a stoic expression throughout . in walks draken and some other gang members . y/n's felt her lips go dry at the sight of draken . she knew how draken and emma had felt about each other and how the sudden lost of emma would impact him . draken noticed the presence of the female and hence made his way infront of her . y/n had her head hung low as she harshly bit her lips . " you bitch... " draken had grown a hatred towards her ever since the incident with emma . he grabbed onto her collar , pulling her up causing her to cough from the tight impact around her neck .

" oi draken " mikey had his teeth clenched at draken's actions . everyone's attention had now fallen onto the two , creating a scene . " it should have been you... " his deep dangerous voice rung in her head . just when mikey had spent all night consoling her , it was all down the drain . the way draken's words had a huge impact on her since her mental health wasn't in the best state . just then , the blonde threw his fist over at draken's face resulting in him letting go of her collar . he slightly hissed in pain seeing his cheeks slowly start to swell . although they were best friends , they would fight to the death of each other for their loved ones . " seriously mikey , you're here defending this brat who was the cause of your sister's death . " y/n's mind was in a twirl . she had try to remember mikey's words from yesterday but failed .

no matter how many times she had to tell herself she wasn't at fault , it never seemed to work . guilt still followed . " im sorry.... its all my fault... as off today , i will officially leave toman... " she announced with a shaky voice as she gave a 90 degrees bow . " y/n... " mikey looked at her with pain . with that she ran off again . she was no longer a part of toman . a gang she had been with for months . a gang that she was so involved and invested in . a gang where she truly enjoyed herself in . there was no one to blame for this but herself . " Y/N ! " mikey shouted out while chasing her . at the sound of mikey's voice , she ran even faster . she didn't deserve mikey . he would always made sure that she was okay but at such hard time like losing his sister , he had to look out for her as well . y/n felt like nothing but a burden . not just to mikey but toman .

soon luminous clouds were formed as darkness covered the city . y/n ran all the way up to a roof of a tall building . with mikey still constantly chasing her . her mind wasn't in the right state . she stood up onto the edge of the building . droplets of rain started to fall in this chaotic moment . " GET DOWN Y/N . ITS DANGEROUS THERE ! " mikey swore he could feel his heart almost coming out of his chest . seeing y/n standing at the edge on impulse . the breeze ran past her hair , causing her outfit and hair to sway the direction of the wind . " lets talk it out y/n... " mikey used the softest voice he could . y/n's life was in her own hands . but despite all this talking from mikey , she showed no sign as to stepping down or replying to whatever he had to say .

" are you really going to leave me behind this cruel world ... are you really that selfish . " mikey broke down from anxiousness . " sorry... but i don't deserve to live . " she looked back at mikey with a small smile and tears in her eyes . " have you thought about how i would feel if you're gone ?! " mikey vented his frustrations . he never wanted any of this . he wished that he had never asked y/n to join toman . if only she had been a detective all her life , maybe she wouldn't have to experience all this pain and misery . maybe she will still be the happy and joyful person that she was back when she wasn't in toman . she held out her hand , leaning back and letting her body fall on its own .

" forever and always , manjiro . "
