"You're okay, that's what's matters" I said. He smiles softly at me and nod his head in agreement. Now we just have to find Hanasaki, and get out of this place. I will give an earful of scolding towards that boy. He keeps getting into trouble and make people worried!

-Yoshio's Tears-

Y/N P.O.V

We make our way inside. I notice Nii-Chan is here too. Across from him is Hanasaki with a guy wearing glasses. I furrow my eyebrow, as Hanasaki protects the guy from Nii-Chan's gum point. Who is he? Why did Hanasaki looks so adamant to protect him from Nii-Chan?

"Nii-Chan... what's going on?" I asked, rushing to stand next to my brother. He turns to look at me for a brief moment, before turning his head to look at Hanasaki and the guy. Hanasaki stares at Nii-Chan with a look of anger.

The guy turns to look at me and points his gun at me. I flinch at the sudden move. He shoots his gun as I focus on my power. As soon as the bullet hits me on my shoulder.

"Y/N!!" Yoshio said. He rushes towards me, placing his hands on my shoulder. He gently move my shirt to the side. I just watch as the wound starts to heal. I turn my head to look at the guy as I watch him falls on his knees as the wound starts to form on his.

"Nii-Chan!" Hanasaki yelled out, as he rushes to the guy. The guy just stares at me, in complete shock at what happened. I just stare at him as I get up on my feet. Turns out... he's Hanasaki's older brother.

***

Hanasaki's older brother is being taken away by the medics. They'll take him to the hospital to get his gun wound treated. I just watch in silent as I lean my back against the wall.

I feel a presence next to me. I turn my head to see it's Yoshio. He's leaning against the wall next to me. He turns to look at me, once he felt my gaze.

"What was that?" He asked. I can instantly tell that he's wondering about what happened to me a while ago. How the wound on my shoulder heals and it appears on Hanasaki's brother's shoulder.

"It's... something I've been able to do. Aside from using my power to heal... I can use it to harm people as well. By focusing on covering my body with it... whoever tries to hurt me ended up getting hurt..." I said. Yoshio just stares at me. His gaze on me didn't falter.

He finally let out a sigh. He gently grab my hand and pulls me closer.

I gasp in shock at his sudden movement

I gasp in shock at his sudden movement. He says nothing as he holds me close, burying his face into the crook of my neck. I just place my chin on his shoulder, wondering what has gotten into him.

"Yoshio..." I said, in a soft voice. He hums softly as he runs his hand through my hair, as one of his arm still firmly wrapped around my waist. "Is everything alright?" I asked.

He tighten his arms around me. "I was so scared..." he said, in a hushed voice. I furrow my eyebrows in confusion. Scared? He was scared... for what?

"Why?" I asked. He buries his face deeper into my neck. I can feel his body starting to shake a little. I feel something wet dripping on my shirt. I frown as I realize what they are. They're Yoshio's tears.

I pull away slightly, cupping his cheeks softly. "Why are you crying, Yoshio?" I asked. He closes his eyes as he leans into my touch. His tears just keeps on falling from his eyes, making me feel worried for him. I can feel my heart clenching painfully at the sight of his tears.

"I was scared to lose you... when I saw you getting shot. I start to fear for the worst" he said, opening his eyes to look into mine with his red eyes. I frown at what he said.

"You know I won't die easily, right? I'm a fast healer, Yoshio. You don't have to worry" I said. He just pull me into another hug, burying his face into my hair as he hugs me tightly.

"It doesn't change anything. No matter how strong your powers are. It doesn't change the fact that I'd still be scared for your life, Y/N. You mean so much to me. I don't... I-I d-don't want to l-lose y-you, Y/N. I can't..." he said, tightening his arms around me. My eyes widened at what he said.

He pulls away from the hug and cups my cheeks. "So please... stay with me. Don't ever leave me, promise me that..." he said. I stare into his eyes for a while and nod my head, smiling softly.

"I will never leave you, Yoshio. I promise..." I said. He nods his head, seemingly satisfied with my word. He leans his forehead against mine as he closes his eyes.

"I love you, Y/N..." he said. My eyes widened at what he said. I can feel my heart skipping a beat at his sudden confession. Yoshio... loves me??

"Say something... do you feel the same?" He pleaded. I blink my eyes, realizing I didn't say anything after hearing his declaration of love. I stare into his eyes as they stare at me with so many emotions.

"I love you too, Yoshio..." I said. His eyes widened as they glisten a little. He eventually starts to smile as he pulls me into a tight hug. I wrap my arms around his torso, hugging him back with equal strength.

He pulls away slightly and cups my cheeks. "I want to kiss you. But I don't know how..." he said. I just smile at what he said. I gently wrap my arms around his neck.

"Me neither..." I said. He just stares at me for a bit. He slowly starts to lean in. I close my eyes, letting him close the gap between us. I can feel a pair of lips pressing against mine. As soon as I feel it, I tilt my head slightly and deepens the kiss.

We pull away a while later for air. "Wow..." I said. He just smiles at my reaction. He cups the side of my cheek and pulls me in for another kiss. I wrap my arms tightly around his neck, as he pulls me closer by the waist.

"Will you be my girlfriend, Y/N?" He asked. I smile softly and nod my head. "Of course... that shouldn't be a question..." I said. He smiles happily at what I said. He pulls me into a tight hug. I lean my head against his chest. I can hear his heart... beating at a rapid pace. I smile to myself as I snuggle closer to him. Yoshio is my boyfriend now.
