Your POV
He's been flirting with all these other women right in front of me. We're supposed to be spending today together. We barely spend any time together. I stop in my tracks as he talks to a group of women. I walk away.
I'm not doing this. I promise things will be different (Y/n). I'll give you my attention. I should have just went on another mission.
Time skip
I get to my place and get orders for a new mission. I take out the trash. He runs up to me. I just look at him. "Hey what happened you ran off." He says.
"I'm not doing this with you Spirit." I say. He stares at me confused. "I'll admit I can be a jealous woman but I refuse to be jealous knowing damn well you don't want a relationship. The entire time you were talking to other women on our date. How pathetic of me. I should have known better. I'm not going to wait for you to "become a better man" anymore. Time after time you've said that. You won't need to say that anymore though. I'm done with this. I'm going on a mission it's gonna take about 20 years so I'm packing up. You won't see me again so that's one less woman you need to worry about." I say.
I turn around and go to my door. "Hey wait." He says. I don't. "Just hear me out." He says. I don’t. I just keep walking. "Don't leave me please." He says.
I grab the door knob. "Don't bother we'll be out of your life in no time at all. What's the point in staying. I won't torture myself being in a relationship with you. I won't do that to our child either." I say. "DON'T!" He says. I go inside. He had no clue not one at all that I was pregnant.
He was so busy with other women he didn't notice. Every cramp every vomit. He didn't notice a single one. He bangs on the door. I sigh. Even though it's not visible it's there maybe he knew and that's why he gave me less attention. I get a sharp pain in my stomach.
I wince. He kicks the door in. He comes up to me and holds me. "Please don't go please." He says. "I'm sorry Spirit I'm going. It won't be any different." I say. "You can't just leave while your pregnant with our kid." He says.
"Why not? Why does it matter? You say you'll change over and over. You'll just treat them how you treated Maka. This is my child and I would rather them only have a mother than some father that comes in and out of their lives. Who doesn't give them the attention they need." I say. "Please don't...." He says. He falls to his knees while holding my legs. "Please don't leave. Not again please." He says. He's done this before.
This feels different though. Like when I was in the hospital. I got hurt really bad by fighting a witch. Turns out there were two. I was defending my partner with my entire life.
Risking my body at any cost. She died from being impaled by a second witch. I had passed out from blood loss. I was found by the academy only minutes later. I woke up to Spirit crying begging me to stay and not die.
That was when we were obsessed with each other in school or so I thought we were obsessed with each other. He had gotten another girl pregnant. I was devastated. Once I was done with school I left and didn't come back for decades. When I was in that hospital bed.
I really felt like he wanted me there with him. Now though I'm unsure. I just look down at him. "Get off." I say. He sniffles. "Not until you promise you won't leave." He says. "Not gonna happen." I say.
He holds them tighter. How do I handle this. I think. "One chance." I say. "Huh?" He says. "One chance that's all you have left. If you don't become the man you promised to be then I'm leaving." I say. "Thank you." He says.
He gets up and holds me. Why do I torture myself for him? I guess I'll see how this turns out. I just pat his back. He picks me up and takes me to my bed.
He snuggles me. "Spirit." I say. "Yes." He says. "I know you're a good man. You're doing your best to make things right with Maka. You're sweet and mean well. I do want to trust you with everything in me." I say. "It'll come easy soon. I will do everything in my power to make myself better. I'm grateful for you you know." He says. I look at him.
"Any one else would have left and never thought of looking back. You've given me chance after chance yet I've failed to show improvement. You see something in me that I don't see in myself don't you?" He asks. "I just love you is all. I always have after everything." I say. He silent. "You were my first love. The only man I've ever felt these feelings for. To be honest I don't know why I put myself through this over and over. It's not like you're the last person on earth. When I was out on missions I tried so hard to find someone to love. Someone to feel an unbreakable attraction to but I couldn't. My mind always went back to you. Especially when I felt the relationships get serious. I thought of you constantly. Picturing you imagining you touching me talking to me. It drove me insane. I even stopped being in relationships just to not feel anything at all but it didn't work." I say. He stares at me with this look of amazement.
He pulls me into a kiss quickly. I kiss him back gently. I feel him crying. I just hold him while we kiss. He lets go and I wipe his tears. "Everything will be okay now." I say. He nods and holds me. I hold him and run my hands through his hair.
