//Chishiya POV
//

My whole body tensed. Who was Hatter talking about?
Could it be possible y/n was calling my name?
My heart felt like it was shattering at the thought of her calling for Niragi.
I took a deep breath as Hatter led us into the room. Niragi pushed his shoulder into mine as he barged passed me and rushed in first.
I froze at the sight of y/n.
She was so pale and could hardly keep her eyes open.

"She's not really herself at the moment. I've had to give her some strong drugs for the pain, so she might not make any sense at the moment" Ann spoke softly and she gently smiled towards Niragi and I.
I edged closer towards her and stood at the end of the bed, Niragi stood next to her, grabbing her hand and softly rubbing his thumb across the back of it.

"Can you hear me y/n?" Niragi spoke quietly "I'm so sorry" I noticed his eyes fill with tears, but he just turned his head so no one else would notice.

"Chi..Chishiya?" Y/n replied, stuttering as she spoke. Her eyes still not fully open.

Niragi spun his head towards me, instant rage in his eyes.
"It's me, Niragi, I'm here" Niragi turned his head back towards y/n and began slowly running his fingers down her face.

Y/n let out a low disgruntled groan and began breathing deeply, it seemed as if she was falling back asleep.

"You both should probably leave for now, she needs her rest" Ann nodded towards the door.

"I'm not leaving" Niragi said quietly but an anger to his voice.

"How did this even happen?" Ann questioned, her gaze shifting between me and Niragi.

"It was an accident, she got in the way when I was about to kill something else" Niragis glance shot towards me. I clenched my jaw, having to hold back my anger. "Hatter said she was asking for someone? I assume it was me?" Niragi continued, still staring at me, a smile forming on his face.

Ann sighed "I told Hatter not to mention that part" Ann just shook her head.

Niragi just chuckled to himself "well why would it be anyone other than me anyway?" Niragi clicked his tongue as if not truly wanting to know the answer.

Ann shot a glance towards me and just nodded and smiled gently.

Was that Ann's way of confirming it was actually me?
I felt my heart skip a beat at the thought.

"I should probably go" I smiled towards Ann. "She's obviously in safe hands here, and clearly needs her rest" I took a deep breath as I turned towards the door to leave.
Before exiting, I took one last glance towards y/n, laying peacefully. I couldn't help but think about how beautiful she is. And she's still alive.

I opened the door and started making my way down the hallway when I heard a soft voice call my name.

I turned around and Ann was stood with a smile on her face.
She slowly approached me before saying the words that will stick with me forever.

"It was you, Chishiya"

I nodded towards her as she began to walk away, but inside I could feel explosions in my stomach. I couldn't help but smile.
Even in the state she was in, she was thinking of me. Saying she loved me.

I quickly made my way back to my room and sat in the chair by the window. Pulling out the picture she drew of me, I always kept in my pocket.
I ran my fingers over the words "I love you Chishiya", and tears filled my eyes. Tears of happiness.
No matter what happens now, I know that she does still love me, and that's all that matters for now.
Now I know for definite Niragi was the one who told her to come and see me and to stay away from her.
Even though it hurt when I heard her say those words, I know none of it was true, and that fills my heart with so much joy.

I looked outside to the dark sky, the moon shining in through the window. Thinking of where to go from here. Do I stay away from y/n? Do I attempt to kill Niragi again? Do I keep fighting for her?

I sigh.

If I keep trying with her, it will just make Niragi jealous and something like this might happen again. I can't risk that. But I can't watch them both together.
Maybe its best I try to escape from here. Maybe even take the cards.
All I know is I can't carry on this way.

As I'm lost in thought, without even a knock, Niragi burst through the door, I stuff the picture in my pocket.

Niragi frowns towards me.

"I came to beat your ass. But now I'm intrigued about what you're hiding from me" Niragi begins to laugh as he walks closer.

"Why would you want to beat me?" I question, trying to divert the attention from the picture.

"She was asking for you! Again!" Niragi began to raise his voice. "After you left, all she could say was your name!" I noticed Niragi clench his fist.
"You can't help but be in the way!" Niragi began to approach me quicker.

"But I left, I just wanted to see if she was okay. I won't be going back" I spoke calmly. "Maybe if you weren't so concerned with me, or what I'm doing, and concentrated your attention on y/n, you wouldn't feel this hatred towards me"

Niragi just scoffed at my response.

"Y/n is in this situation because you couldn't contain your jealously, you always hurt her" I tried to keep my voice steady, but I was worried Niragi would knock me out and see the picture.

Niragi just frowned and looked towards the floor, as in digesting the words I just spoke.

Niragi began walking towards me again, calmly this time. He stood in front of me with a smile on his face. What is he up to? I braced, waiting for his fist to collide with my face.

Suddenly he reached his hand in my pocket, and pushed me before turning with the paper in his hand.

My eyes widened as I steadied myself, I could see his side profile. His eyes widened as he unfolded the paper.
He stood for a few moments just staring at the picture. His jaw beginning to clench.
I could hear his breathing getting heavier.

He refolded the picture, and held it towards me, I took it from his shaking hand, he didn't say anything, or even look towards me.

He shut his eyes for a moment, taking a deep breath. He moved his head from side to side, as if to crack his neck.

He started stretching his arms, his eyes still closed.

I was preparing myself, he's definitely going to kill me now. He doesn't have his gun so it's definitely going to be physical and violent.

I held the picture to my chest and just shut my eyes "I love you y/n" was repeating in my head.

I heard footsteps heading towards the door. I slightly opened my eyes, confused. Niragi opened the door without even taking one glance towards me, and left.

I stood there in the dark room, alone. Wondering, what is Niragi planning to do?
