Stay With Me (Kobayashi Yoshio X Reader)

Chapter 25

Previously on Chapter 24

Yoshio walks back to my room. He sits down on the bed, with me on his lap. I wrap my arms around his neck, with my face buried in the crook of his neck. He runs his hand through my hair, trying his best to comfort me. But the only thing on my mind at the moment was how to free Nii-Chan from cruel man's grasp.

-Forgive Me-

Y/N P.O.V

When I wake up the next day, the first thing that came to my mind was the thought of Nii-Chan being held captive by the enemy. My mind drifted back to what Fiend With Twenty One faces said. He wants me to come and play with him if I want him to let Nii-Chan go.

I'm still on my bed, laying on my back as I stare at the ceiling. My mind is thinking of all the possibilities that might occur if I go to that man. Would he let Nii-Chan go... or would he held me captive with him.

I turn to my side to see Yoshio, who's still asleep. I turn to lay on my side as I stare at his sleeping face. So far... I'm the only one who can come close to him. Other people who tried to come close, would always be stopped by his forcefield. It meant his heart is open for me. He trusted me. Would he find someone else he could trust like he did with me? What will happen if something happened to me and I had to leave him behind.

Yoshio starts to move. He turn to lay on his side, gently wrapping his arm around my waist. He pulls me closer to his side. He places his head on my chest. His body starts to relax as he drifted back to sleep.

"Don't leave me, Y/N... don't ever leave me..." he said, still asleep. My eyes soften at what he said. I lift my hand and gently place it on his head. I gently caress his hair. "I love you..." he whispered.

I feel tears starts building up in my eyes. I feel so bad... I know Yoshio would be so broken. But I have to do this. I have to save Nii-Chan. It was all thanks to him that I'm able to have a taste of freedom.

I wipe my tears and gently embraces Yoshio's body. "I love you too, Yoshio... I love you so much" I whispered softly. I close my eyes, letting myself drift back to sleep with a heavy heart.

Yoshio P.O.V

I slowly wake up, but I keep my eyes close. I move my arm to the other side of the bed only to feel an empty space. I furrow my eyebrow as I finally open my eyes. I look around the room, trying to look for my girlfriend.

"Y/N?" I called out. I sit up and looks around, wondering where she could be. I turn my head to the side, noticing a piece of paper on the table. My heart starts thumping fast at the sight. Please don't tell me this is what I think it is.

I reach over and grab it. I unfold the paper, to see there's it's a letter. I bit my lips nervously. My heart beats starts to accelerate. I take a deep breath and starts to read the letter.

To my dearest love,
Yoshio

Hey, Yoshio... it must have shocked you to have woken up without me next to you. I'm sorry, okay? I hope you're not mad at me. But, Nii-Chan was the reason I'm able to taste freedom. I never had a chance to repay him, and maybe it is time. This is my chance to repay all his kindness to me.

I think you're able to guess by now, huh? That's right... I'm going after them. I'll free Nii-Chan myself. Forgive me, Yoshio... you know it pains me more than anything to leave you behind.

I love you, Yoshio... I truly do. I hope that you'll be able to find someone that you can trust. Maybe more than you can ever trust me. Please don't be upset, and be happy. I am not asking you to do this for me... do it for yourself.

Yours truly,
Y/N

I shake my head at what the letter said. My tears starts to fall from my eyes. "No... no no no... this can't be. This is not happening. No..." I said under my breath, shaking my head in denial. I clutch my head and stands up. I start to walk back and forth, pulling my hair.

"YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO ME, Y/N!!!" I screamed at top of my lungs. I drop on my knees as I continue to let out a scream. She can't do this... she can't.

"What's with all the yelling? It's still so early!" Someone said, opening the door to Y/N's room. The room she's supposed to be in. I keep my head lowered down as I keep clutching my hair.

"What happened, Kobayashi?" The person asked. I turn my head to see it's Hanasaki. I quickly get up and rush towards him. He backs away, fearing that my forcefield would hurt him. I stop mid-tracks, realizing that the only one that can come close to me is Y/N. She's the only one who can touch me... hold me.

"Y/N... she... she left" I said. His eyes widened at what I said. I throw the letter at him. He catches it and starts to read the content. I watch as a gasp escape his lips as he turns to look at me.

"She... this is a joke, right??" He said. I just give him a sadden gaze. He shakes his head as he realize Y/N had left. He backs away, until his back touches the wall. "No..." he said, as he slid down with his back leaning against the wall.

I know why Hanasaki reacted this way. Just like me... he is also in love with Y/N. But of course, he doesn't love her as much as I do. Y/N is my life... she's the reason I can feel affection. The first person that could come close to me. Without her... I'd be so lost.

I need to save her...
