He held her in a hug with a hand going through her hair. Seeing how she was crying into his chest, his face blushed and a smile broke out.
It wasn't supposed to be like this,
He wasn't supposed to be like this,
But her reddened crying face enticed him.
He wanted to see it more.
So he never thought that being the cause, killing the people around her was so wrong.
"It's gonna be okay, (Y/n)", He said, trying to sympathize.
(Y/n) fell silent, except for the few sniffles that escaped her trembling lips.
His hands were gently brushing her, trying to calm her down.
Of course, it was an act, he'd rather look at her crying face more than anything.
He was glad that now she trusts him enough to let it all out in front of him. Showing her most vulnerable expression that he loved,
He finds it worth it to put on an act.
He had a gentle look watching over her trembling figure while wondering what would it take for her to break down worse, harder
It would be a sight he'd give his life to see,
Her most miserable expression.
He's in ecstasy just by the thought of it.
She held his body closer, sinking in her head deeper to muffle her words, "They died", It didn't fall on deaf ears, hearing that made him grin wider, her voice sounded so, so weak, " I made them die. . .", She whimpered out much to Kaku's pleasure.
" Hey, don't say that . . .", Putting care into his tone, he hugged her tighter, "It wasn't your fault, you didn't know it would turn out like that".
It was his. He wanted her ruined, making all the deaths he caused seemingly trace their way back to her isn't hard.
To make her feel suffocating guilt. To stitch her very soul with heavy, unbearable regret . . . He was sure she will be in disrepair, and her expression will show it all by then.
(Y/n) raised her head ever so slightly, feeling the shame of letting herself cry in front of someone, "But if I hadn't sent them, they wouldn't have . . ."
Kaku felt conscious, she didn't see his overjoyed face, did she?
He held down his smile, tightening his lips, trying to put on an expression befitting the situation.
"You know," Kaku pushed her head back lightly to his chest, rather not risk her seeing his face any longer, "Nobody saw it coming, don't blame yourself,", He listened to her sobs as if it was a calming lullaby, "Nobody saw it coming,", He repeated in a hushed whisper.
Along with the feeling of his shirt dampened to his skin, he blessed his ears a little while longer with her in his arms until a disruptive knock came about to which his eyebrows furrowed.
Quickly softening it again while letting a sigh out, he tapped his finger on her still unsteady back, to which she slowly shook her head.
He took the sight of her in longer before closing his eyes and brushing her back slowly again.
How he had grown uncontrollably obsessed with her is, undoubtedly, undeniably, his bane.
