happy ending.

01 | nakamoto yuta

don't mind me ruining the laws of vampires, grim reapers, the underworld and other mythical stuff :)

"for going against the laws of falling in love with a different species, there are two penalties to choose from. one, your family will be killed. two, you and your husband shall die, while your son will have the curse of being half human and half vampire for the next 700 years. he will be immortal, suffer by watching his loved ones die and stay alone for those 700 years"

the woman having her son in her arms, looked up at her husband who was chained. he smiled looking their son, as tears fell from her eyes.

"please, i don't want our son to die" she begged in attempt to ask for other options as she did not want the boy to have the curse nor die.

"he can live with the curse"

the mother cried uncontrollably, she squeezed the boy's hand slightly and kissed his forehead. "im sorry son, i love you so much... tae-"

shooting his eyes open, he sat up and took a deep breath. unknowingly having his fingers clutched onto the bedsheets from the terrible dream he just had, he slowly let them go and looked at messy he looked in the mirror in front of him. of course he looked messy, boy just woke up from a bad dream. except it wasn't just any bad dream, but one single nightmare he's been getting for days now.

and those nightmares aren't even about him. yet, they scared him.

it was always about how a young kid lost his parents because they wanted to protect him, growing up without parental love and care.

he's always had this feeling that he's known the little kid in his dreams. but he can't say from where.

getting up with a groan, he looked out of the window, seeing a quick flash of black pass by the terrace of the opposite building. he's been seeing weird things lately, but he couldn't be bothered. he had much more important things to do. like merging with humans and killing the person assigned to him.

after all, being a grim reaper was no easy job.

"i swear to god-"

"jeez i said i'm sorry!" the blond said rolling his eyes

"you say that every time-" the brunet argued back but was cut off by the blond

"shut up johnny! people are looking at us" he whisper yelled to the brunet walking beside him.

"will you ever be on time yuta?" the guy named johnny said irritated by the fact that he was going to be late because of his friend.

yuta groaned, tired of apologizing even though it wasn't exactly his fault he overslept and decided to be late. and that'

hearing whatever the older was rambling in one ear and ignoring them through the other, he felt a different presence nearby. of course there were people nearby as expected in a public place, but he felt like he was being watched.

he felt like there was a gaze on him. but yuta couldn't care less as he was too busy 'mingling with humans' as he'd like to call it.

it was this street he walked past most days. and today, was a different destination. it had always been highschool, but today, was his first day of college.

our boy yuta here was the grim reaper, so how did he get into college and school, and how did he get along with humans in the mortal world?

yuta's from the underworld. he simply created an identity and a fake backstory after finding out this was the place his target was.

the said backstory: nakamoto yuta, from japan, lost his parents at a young age, moved to south korea for highschool, used a fake identity to get into college.

and since he pretended to be human because no one could know the existence of the underworld or beings of the underworld like him, a grim reaper, he had to do human stuff. and as a 'highschool/college human student', he had to study.

life was difficult for him. being only human is difficult enough. but yuta had to balance a human life and his grim reaper mission.

speaking of which, the mission he's always failed. there were many people a grim reaper is assigned to bring to the underworld, after their death, which they basically kill them. yuta has always been good at that, always been good at his tasks. yet, there's always one person he's always failed at. or that's what he's heard. all five out of a total of seven lives he's lost, was while getting this one person. he didn't understand how, or if this person had some sort of power which he couldn't kill. but it was weird. and now with the difficulty level of this mission because of not being able to find his currently assigned person, he was pretty sure he was up against this same person. the thought made yuta more determined to kill him.

yuta runs his fingers through his hair and takes in a deep breath once he reaches the gates of the university. "college life here we come!" he heard johnny say next to him.

he stops in his tracks, the same feeling creeping over him. he turns and looks around to see or spot anyone who was looking at him. although he didn't find anyone looking at him, he could still feel someone's gaze on him. trying his best to ignore it, he walks through the gates.
