The Two sides

|Cuddle Up Next To Me|

(Hunter's P.O.V.)

I walk out of the room after Y/n. "Y/n, wait. . . I didn't mean it. It was a force of habit." Before I was able to finish Y/n was already down the hallway running around the corner.

I turn and punch the wall beside my door "Fuck!" I yelled, lacing my fingers together and putting them on my head.

I stood there for a moment with my eyes closed to calm down. A few moments later I was walking down the hallway looking in every room, trying to find Y/n.

I went to open a room, but the door was locked. I kept my hand on the handle. "Huntress, are you in there?"

I didn't want to say her name just in case it wasn't her. We didn't need people knowing that we were calling each other by our names instead of Huntress and Golden Guard.

The only thing I got back was a shaky voice. "Go away." A few moments of silence passed my hand still on the door handle.

"Y/n please. . . Let's talk about this." I put my forehead on the door and closed my eyes.

"I fucked up so badly." Was the only thought going through my head? Minutes went by of silence. Y/n was still in the closet, I still had my forehead against the door.

A few more minutes went by, and I took my head off the door. My hand slid off the handle and I took a few steps back from the door.

"Y/n... I know you're upset with me. I do. But I want to talk about this, and if you're not ready I'm willing to wait for when you're ready to talk. . . No matter how long it takes." I went silent for a few moments. I sighed and went to leave.

"Hunter, wait. . ." Y/n said from inside the closet. I slowly walked back over to the door.

I heard a sigh followed by shuffling. There was a clicking sound that came from the door. I tried the handle once more. It was unlocked.

I stepped inside leaving the door open behind me. Y/n was on the floor, tear streaks on her face.

"I'm so sorry. . . I didn't mean to get so worked up. It's just that-" I began to speak but Y/n cut me off.

"Emperor Belos, tell me what happened with your family. I get why you were so worked up that I was a wild witch." Y/n didn't look at me as she spoke. She was holding her knees to her chest just staring at the floor.

"Yeah. . . We're you ever going to tell me. . .." I sat down next to her leaning against some of the boxes.

Y/n just shrugged. "I was terrified that you were going to tell Belos that I didn't have a sigil if I did tell you. . ." She hugged her knees tighter against her chest.

I stayed silent thinking to myself. "Would I have told Uncle Belos. . . I mean wild witches are dangerous. They are the reason it's only me and Uncle Belos left. . . But then again. . . She doesn't seem like the wild witches Uncle told me about. She's. . . Nicer. . ."

I looked at Y/n as a slight smile grew on my face. Y/n glanced over at me and started to speak.

"Why are you smiling and staring at me?" She tilted her head slightly as she looked at me.
