"I Wish You'd Die Already!" (Perospero x Reader)

Confession

I woke up unusually early to a noise next to me. 'Ah right... I fell asleep next to... him.' I said, gently opening my eyes. I saw Perospero sitting on the side of the bed, and when he noticed I was awake, he turned around and smiled at me. "Ah. Good morning, YN. Sorry if I woke you up." He said lightly. I gently shook my head and Perospero chuckled. "Well, I'm glad then." He said, rubbing the back of his neck. 'This is awkward.' I thought, still staring at Perospero. He turned back around and sat up on the bed. "It's early in the morning, if you want me to lay back down with you, I can." He spoke. A small smile came across my face as the thought of Perospero actually laying back down next to me. Before I could answer, I heard him chuckle again. "Ok darling, I understand." He said, pulling the sheets back over himself, then pulling me close into his thin frame. He put his arm around me and began to gently play with my hair as I laid there. "You know, YN..." He spoke. "I had the best sleep I've had in a while last night. Thank you." He continued. I nodded. "Of course..." I said, leaning into his chest. He smiled at me. "So, YN... What are you planning on doing today." He inquired, his voice soft. "Hmm... I don't really know. Probably what I do any day." I spoke. Perospero nodded. "Are you up for a change of plans? I'd love to go out for lunch with you-" "I'd love to get lunch with you." I said, still half asleep. He chuckled a little, then pulled my bangs out of my face. "I'll find a place suited for you, YN." He said, shaking his head. "What are we going to do until then?" I asked, looking up at him. He sighed lightly. "Whatever it is you want, darling." He said, smiling wide. I rolled over and looked up at him, his expression slightly dejected as I had left his arms. "Does... Does this mean we're a couple now?" I asked, chuckling a little. "Only if you want to be one, darling." He said, beaming at my comment. I nodded. "Yeah... I'd like that." I mumbled, gently reaching up and cupping the side of his face. A wide smile came across his face. "Good." He said, pulling me back into his chest. I sat in silence, listening to the sound of his heartbeat in my ear. 'It's so peaceful with you around.' I thought. 'I'm sorry I even thought of killing you.' I thought, a sadder look coming across my face. Perospero kissed the top of my head. "If we're going to breakfast, then we may want to consider getting up." He said, sighing a little. I nodded. "You're right, yeah. I should probably go back to my own room, too." I added, sitting up. Perospero sat up next to me and kissed my cheek. I chuckled at him. "I'll see you at breakfast, Peros." I said, smiling wide. He nodded. "See you then, YN." He said as I left the room.

I quickly ran back to my own room, unzipped the yellow suitcase and pulled out some clothing that would probably be alright for the day. I quickly changed out of my pajamas and into my everyday clothing. I roughly brushed my hair and tied my shoelaces, then dashed out the door towards the kitchen, almost taking out a few chess piece guards in the process. I slipped into my chair and Amande and Cracker noticed me, then came over to see me. "Hello, YN." Amande said. "A little late today, ay YN?" Cracker asked, a wide smirk on his face. "It shouldn't be an issue of yours if I sleep in or not." I said, glaring at Cracker. "Oh, but you're usually not even here for breakfast." He said, smirking. I sighed. "I should eat breakfast with you guys sometimes, at least." I said, shaking my head. "By the way, YN, where's Perospero? He's usually with you." Amande said. I smiled a little at the mention of his name, then remembered I was in front of the clever and brutal Cracker. "Ah... I don't know where he is." I said, rubbing the back of my neck. Amande nodded, but Cracker looked at me in a suspicious manner. "YN~ Are you sure~?" He asked, his smile wide. Amande turned to him and straight up slapped him. "Stop it, Cracker. She's still technically a guest. Also, have more faith in our older brother than that." She said as Cracker rubbed the side of his face. I chuckled at that comment. 'You two sure are an interesting pairing. How can you two be siblings?' I thought to myself, entertained at the chaos. Cracker then turned, which caused Amande and I to look around as well. "Peros-nii's here! I'll ask him what's going on." Cracker said, jumping off the table. Amande shook her head. "Nosy little creep." She muttered, disapproving of her brother. "Your brother sure is interesting." I said, watching the two of them interact. "Which one?" Amande asked, chuckling a little. "Yes." I said, looking at her straight in the eyes. She then began to laugh even harder. "You're right, for certain, but how many of my brothers have you actually met?" She asked, shaking her head. "Uh... Maybe four or five?" I said, shaking my head. Amande laughed even harder at that comment. "I assume then that you've decided who you're going to marry." She said, turning her head. "My best guess is either Perospero or Cracker, but you don't seem to like Cracker all that much." She said, resting on her hand. "Is that your way of saying you know I'm going to marry your brother?" I asked, smirking at her. "Give or take... yes." She said, smiling. "Everyone's waiting for the announcement that you guys are a couple. Some more patiently than others." Amande said, pointing at Cracker. I nodded. "Yeah... On that note..." I said as Cracker ran over and almost knocked over my chair. "YN!!! I GOT IT OUT OF PEROS-NII!!!" He yelled. "You got nothing out of me." Perospero said, coming up from behind my chair. I turned around and smiled at Perospero. "Hey, Peros. I see you're even later than I am!" "Well of course, it takes a while to look this great... Although I see you've got the system down." He said, a confident expression on his face. A light pink blush came across my face. "BROTHER PEROS SAYS THAT YOU TWO ARE A COUPLE!!!" Cracker yelled before Amande hit him again. She then chuckled. "Wow! We were just talking about that, Perospero." Amande said, smiling at him. "Ah... Sorry, YN." He said, leaning on the side of my chair. I shook my head. "I don't mind." I said, a small smile on my face.

The large gates in the corner of the room threw open and Big Mom came into the room. "Good morning, everyone!" She boomed, throwing her arms in the air. "What is it that we're having for breakfast?" Cracker whispered to me. "I have no idea." I whispered back. The chefs brought in food and rushed back and forth, but the environment was light while I talked to Perospero, Cracker, and Amande. It felt like now nothing could be ruined. Like I was home.

~BACK ON KITOTO~

"A famous assassin missing? Which one, dang it?!" The boss yelled; his voice harsh. "Uh... Miss YN, sir." A lesser assassin said, afraid of the state his boss was in. "MISS YN?! Where is she?!" He yelled, clenching his fists. "Ah... That's what 'missing' means, sir..." He muttered. "We don't know where she is." He said, shrugging his shoulders. He scoffed. "Well then go find her! Have you even tried to call her? YN has never failed a mission! Do you really think a woman like that would just straight-up go missing?" The boss yelled. "Ah right... Transponder snails..." He muttered, shaking his head. The boss slammed his hand down. "GET IN CONTACT WITH YN RIGHT NOW OR I'LL HAVE YOUR HEAD!" He yelled again, throwing out his sausage hand. The assassin saluted him, then ran off down the hall. The boss put his hand on his forehead and sighed. "YN... You had ought to have not gotten off topic... Or you're the one who's head I'll have." He muttered, aggravated.
