The clouds are beautiful... (Muichiro X Reader)

25

9:00.

...

The day I have to leave.

...

I woke up exactly at 9:00 with Muichiro holding me close.

...

He looked so peaceful as he slept...

...

I reached out to his face and gently placed my hand on his cold cheek. His skin would always be warm, why is it that he was frozen now... His beautiful minty eyes remained shut until I decided to kiss his forehead. As my lips pressed against his head, I felt his eyelashes delicately stroke my chin as he fluttered his wide eyes.

...

"Oh.. good morning..." He muttered.

...

"Good morning."

...

I pulled him into a tight hug, pressing myself close to him and wrapping my arms around his shoulders, leaning his head into my chest.

...

"We must get ready. I need to head out in a few hours."

...

"... I forgot about that. You're leaving again...."

I felt my breath tremble as he spoke. I tried my best not to cry and let my tears accidentally trickle onto Muichiro's hair. I don't want to seem weak to him... Even though we both knew pretty well that I'm certainly not that strong in terms of mentality either.

...

"Let's get ready, then..." He quietly said as he stood up from his futon and extended his hand to me, offering help to get up.

...

Muichiro went off to cook breakfast while I remained in the living room and cleaned up his futon, folding every sheet and blanket, stacking them up in a small pile. The smell of fried eggs spread around the house, I came up to Muichiro and watched him prepare the food.

He made some tamagoyaki and milk tea for us. He called me over to the table and set up my meal that was ready to be consumed. I took the chopsticks he gave me and grabbed one of the fried eggs, placing a piece in my mouth.

I still couldn't understand how well he cooked such simple dishes...

They were so much more tastier than if I was to eat them at home or in a different place.

I finished everything he made within 5-7 minutes. I didn't hurry, but things just went on so quickly, that I felt like the time actually flew by so fast. I thanked Muichiro for taking his time to cook for me, but all he did was hug my waist and kiss the back of my head.

...

"Are you simply going to go back home or will somebody come pick you up again..?" He asked as he continued holding me.

"No, I'm going out on a mission. And after that I'm heading home."

"I see... What rank are you again..? I forgot.."

"I'm a rank Hinoe. This mission requires at least a rank Tsuchinoe."

"Alright. I wish you luck in battle, and I'll make sure to train you the next time you appear here."

I twirled around in his arms and looked up at his face, pulling him into yet another kiss. It happened like some sort of dream. My body relaxed while Muichiro continued slowly melting into me. I tangled my hand in his long silky hair and wrapped my other one around his neck, shifting him closer to me.

I jumped onto him and wrapped my legs around his waist as he slowly trailed his cold hands around my body without pulling away. I felt so fuzzy inside. Such a heavenly feeling. I felt like I was floating around in Muichiro's love for me.

A faint blush spread across his face and the slight warmth hit my skin as his chilly lips remained on mine. I wanted more, but we had no time. I took a deep breath and pushed up against him, biting his lower lip before pulling away, leaving this kiss unfinished.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~Time skip~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

10:50.

...

"Well... It's about time I have to head out." I said as I stood outside on his porch.

"Mhm.."

...

"Mui... Words cannot explain how truly happy I was when we met again. This wasn't such a long visit of mine, but I'm insanely glad I got to see you again. After 5 months... I don't know when I'll be back here, I'm really not sure. But next time I'll visit this place, you're gonna be the first person that I'm going to head to. You've matured a lot within this time, you became so much stronger and smarter. You've always behaved so adult-like, despite being so forgetful...~ But now, you're way more independent than me. Make sure to look after your brother and try to remember me. I will be back. I will always come back."

...

"I promise to remember you. How could I ever forget someone as special as you. Even my memory issues don't allow me to do so. I will dedicate most of my time just thinking about you and hoping that you're safe. Thank you for making such a big difference in my life. Thank you..."

...

"Also..."

...

"You can keep this scarf. I don't use it anyway." He said as he looked down and handed over that same dark blue scarf that I found yesterday.

...

"You trust me with it..?"

...

"Yes. I do." He stated as he wrapped it around my neck as a pink blush formed on my face.

...

"Now come on...~ Head to your mission..~" He softly smiled as he pat my head.

...

Even though he smiled, his empty eyes hid his pure anguish and despair.

...

"Okay...~"

...

All this time he stood at his porch and watched me slowly disappear into the mist, as I turned around and waved to him with a smile full of pain on my face.

...

I'm actually leaving him again...

...

I hope we'll see each other again... Muichiro.

...

Thank you again.

...

Thank you...

(A/N: Welp, time to abandon this shit again :) I will come back to this later but for now, enjoy this depressive crap <3 )
