Your POV

Wrapped in my thick blanket and in my room. The door is locked, the lights are off. It's just me here.

It's here again, why can't it just go away?

I'm getting tired of this, isn't Christmas supposed to be a happy day?

Then why?

My heart is racing, and cold sweat is running. My hands are shaking and tears are flowing. My breathing is unstable and my body is curled up against the wall.

Papa, where are you?

Please, help me. It's here again, I don't want it. It hurts, I can't breathe.

Papa...

"Y/n." A familiar voice called and I heard a soft knock against the door.

Jiro? What is he doing here? Aki and the others are gone to buy groceries so I'm all alone. How did he get in?

"Y/n, are you there?" He asked.

Isn't he supposed to go and fight Taiju? Is it already over?

I tried to breathe slowly and wipe the tears away.

"J-Jiro? Why are you here?" I asked, trying to hide the pain I feel.

"Can you let me in?" He asked.

No, I can't let me see him like this. I look pathetic, I hate it when others see me like this. I feel weak.

"Y/n, please. Talk to me." He said

"What's wrong Jiro? I thought you are going to fight Black dragons today?" I asked.

"I canceled it. Now please open the door." He said and knocked again.

"I can't, I'm sick. You might get sick too." I said and fake coughed.

Please just go, I don't want you to see me this weak.

"I don't care so let me in and I'll take care of you." He said but I didn't answer and just stayed silent.

"Y/n? Can you just least answer this question? Are you anywhere near the door?" He asked.

I'm in the farthest corner of my room.

"No." I replied and I heard him sigh.

"That's good." He said.

"Huh? What are you say-" I was about to ask him when he suddenly kicked the door open.

"J-Jiro, what are you-" I said but he suddenly ran to me and hugged me tightly.

"I'm here, my love." He whispered and brushed my hair softly.

"Eh?"

"I'm here with you so don't hide what you're feeling from me. Don't push me away and let me be by your side at times like this." He said

"J-Jiro, what are you saying?" I asked

"I'm sorry for not noticing how you're suffering every year. You were just so good at hiding but now that I know, I'm never going to let you feel alone in your hard times."

"..."

"You're my mine and I'm yours. You took all my secrets and problems with you and made it yours. So now, let me do the same for you. You are my home, please let me be yours." He said and I began to melt in his embrace as my tears flowed again.

"J-Jiro." I softly called and hugged him back.

"It's okay, I'm here." He whispered and kissed my head.

"I'm sorry" I said.

"There's nothing to be sorry about." He said

"I didn't want anyone else to see me like this, especially you. I feel weak and vulnerable." I said as I sob.

"Then let me protect you." He said

"I feel so pathetic."

"Then let me help you feel your worth everything." He said

"I feel like I'm going to break inside." I said

"I will hold you together until you're healed." he said

"I can't understand what I am feeling but it hurts."

"I'm tired of feeling like this every year, Jiro. I thought that it would go away soon but no."

"Then rest because no matter what happens I'm here. Talk to me, Y/n. Let me hear your story when you're ready." He said.

I hugged him tighter and cried harder. I feel like I'm being unfair to him.

He told me what he's been through but I was keeping mine. What if he knew then he'll leave me?

I don't want that, I love him so much that if I have to keep secrets for him to stay, I will.

Mikey's POV

She fell asleep after she told me the story of how her adoptive older brother died. It was hard for her to open up about it but she still did.

She told me exactly what happened when Haruto-san was killed.

"We were supposed to have an exchange gift because it was Christmas but suddenly she started running to me with a knife. Nii-san suddenly appeared and took the hit for me. He didn't make it." She said

I never would've expected a familiar name to pop up.

Kawasaki Rika, that name again.

She was a Yakuza leader in the other timeline. The biggest Yakuza group in Japan, Hakuren-kai.

I guess killing in this timeline is really unavoidable for me.

Once a killer, always a killer. That goes for anyone in this world. No matter what the reason.

I was still holding Y/n as she sleeps when I heard some noise coming from outside.

Slowly getting up and not waking her up, I went down to the living room.

From outside, I heard voices and they were arguing.

When I opened the door, I saw the Black Dragons gang with Koko and his friend.

Takemicchi, Baji, Kazutora, and the others were standing as barricades in front of the house with their uniforms on except for Takemicchi.

"We're not letting you through!" Takemicchi declared.

"You guys have some nerve trying to ambush one of our leaders in their house. You guys are really rotten." Baji said as he tie his hair.

"What are you guys doing?" I asked them with a serious face.

My friends turned around and were shocked by my sudden appearance.

"E-eh? Mikey-kun?" Takemicchi asked.

"Good timing Mikey, sorry but it looks like we won't be able to follow your command." Baji said

"Huh?" I asked

"These guys right here were planning to ambush Y/n-chan in her house so we don't have a choice but fight them." Kazutora said.

I looked at Koko and the other guy who was in front with a glare.

"Is that so?" I asked them.
