Mind Strings and the Demon's Extract ( Esdeath x Male Reader)

Bottle of Whiskey

[ so unmotivated, don't feel like to continue writing shit ]

After half an hour, Y/n finally arrived back home, he sat on the steps of his veranda while trying hard in forcing the lighter to light, until he finally managed to light his cigarette. He sat there, fighting the temptation of opening that bottle of whiskey he just bought on his way home. The nicotine wasn't helping him at all, so in rejecting the temptation to drink, he went to take a bath.

He finished and got changed into fresh clothing, and sat down at his small dining table. He looked at the whiskey bottle standing on the table. Even though he tried hard to concentrate on something else, these flashbacks kept coming across his mind and he could hear the bottle begging him to drink, to take just a little sip. Besides, living alone, isolated, is difficult to just avoid thinking of something that's bothering you.

He suddenly heard footsteps outside his door, and then someone knocked, "Y/n?" was the voice of Esdeath. Y/n rolled his eyes and told her to come in.

"Tatsumi," and there it goes, the first thing that always came out of her mouth first, "managed to get away again. I thought we were supposed to meet back at the river," she said and walked over to the young man. Y/n just sat there and said nothing, not giving her a glance.

Esdeath looked at the bottle of whiskey and cupped y/n's jaw with her hand, "how many fingers am i holding up?" She asked, showing four fingers. Y/n moved his face away and stood up from his chair.

"I didn't drink a drop, don't worry," he said with an exhausted exhale.

Y/n proceeded to walk towards the kitchen cabinet and took out two small glass cups and walked back to the table, "Sit down." Y/n said, opening the bottle and pouring some into the glasses.

Esdeath sat down and observed the unusual behaviour of Y/n as he served her a drink, "drink up, It'll do you good," he said and drank his. It was indeed his first time drinking, and he can't quite yet say he enjoyed his first glass. The upet feeling within the female drove her to also take a drink.

WHile Y/n just took one, his dear general, went up to her 6 rounds, and kept asking for a refill. She was now drunk, and all she spoke about was Tatsumi.

"He told me he loved someone else," Esdeath said, dragging her words out, "why can't he love me like I love him?"

"Tatsumi's an idiot," You said aloud, making Esdeath burst into laughter.

"Honestly, he's the sweetest thing," she mumbled and her eyes rolling as she set her head to the side.

"Sure, why not," Y/n said sarcastically, knowing that when she's sober she won't remember a thing that left his lips, "how do you still want to be with someone after they've told you that they aren't interested in you. If you give someone else a chance, maybe you can find someone who actually cares about you."

She suddenly leaned closer to Y/n, "huh-" he gasped, making her chuckle. She set her hand over y/n's shoulder and moved even closer, her breasts against his arm, her lips almost touching his jaw.

The sudden act of physical contact made Y/n jump and quickly tried to help her sit up straight.

"Y/n," she said in a low voice, her eyes looking down at Y/n's lips, "you're quite cute, aren't you?"

"Es-" she silenced Y/n with a finger, and came closer to him, which made Y/n to react and move a little, "Esdeath, you're drunk, come let me carry you to the bed, so you can get some rest," y/n said and took her to the bed. He laid her down carefully and started to take off her long, grey boots.
