Against All Odds || Fuyuhiko Kuzuryu x Fem!Reader

Hold Me

   Opening the door to Fuyuhiko's cottage, you were met with the darkness and absence of light. You gently shut the door behind you, twisting the lock form the inside and earning a quiet click from the knob in return.

You sighed, making your way over to the bed and turning on the bedside lamp. And as you looked down, Fuyuhiko was sitting on the palette he had made the night before. He was silent, fidgeting with his fingers as his face displayed an expression of irritation.

"Who died?" He hummed.

You took off his blazer, throwing it to the ground as you awkwardly cleared your throat. 

"Byakuya."

"Who killed him?"

"We- uh... We don't know."

After your kiss with Fuyuhiko, the body announcement had rang over the intercoms soon after he left. And after that, you had made your way back to the old building to find that Byakuya had been murdered underneath one of the tables.

And from there, everyone agreed to investigate in the morning.

You grabbed your hoodie from the ground, checking if it was finally dry from the night before. It was, and you made your way into the bathroom, closing the door behind you.

Fuyuhiko's voice spoke from outside. "Dumbass. He should've known he couldn't protect everyone. The fucker was the first one to die."

Scoffing, you unbuttoned Fuyuhiko's dress-shirt, sliding it over your shoulders and letting it hit the ground. "Says the one that's so insistent on keeping me safe..."

"Yeah, well..." You heard him pause. "That's different."

"Different how?"

"It just is, okay?"

"You mean it's different because of what happened in the pool?"

He didn't answer and you slipped on your hoodie, opening the door and stepping out of the bathroom. 

You looked at him and he avoided your gaze. 

"It wasn't real, Y/n. We should forget it fucking happened." He snapped.

Part of you was hurt by his statement. Who's to say it wasn't real? Sure, he would make an amazing distraction, but there was something about him you couldn't shake.

You didn't respond, only lowering your gaze and climbing into the bed.

You heard a huff from the boy and you sighed, reaching up to turn off the lamp. And a second later, the room was engulfed in darkness again. 

No one spoke for a long moment. And you had to admit, you felt kind of bad that you hurt him by what you said in the pool.

And in that second, you closed the distance between you, pressing your lips to his as you closed your eyes.

For a moment, he didn't respond. He didn't pull away nor reciprocate, but in the next second, his hands slid down to your waist as he began to pull you closer.

You let out a sigh of contentment, biting on his bottom lip as he tightened his grip on your hips.

He licked your bottom lip, gently asking for entrance and you granted it, parting your lips as he plunged his tongue inside.

But it didn't take long for him to murmur into the kiss, struggling to pull himself away. "Mm, stop," he hummed. "stop, stop, stop, stop..."

Eventually, he managed to pull himself out of the kiss, pressing his forehead against yours. Gazing into each other's eyes, you took in each other's slightly dishevelled and soaked appearances, now panting messes.

"Come on, Fuyuhiko..." you whispered. "Come on, please. I really need some kind of distraction."

Fuyuhiko's gaze didn't waver, he only let out a hurt sigh as his brows knitted together. "A... distraction? That's... That's all this is to you?"

----

"You weren't just a distraction..." You mumbled.

There was no answer for a long moment, and you had begun to think he had fallen asleep. However, his voice broke the silence a second later.

"How am I supposed to believe that?"

"..." You had no answer for that. Not one that was reasonable. "I don't know."

"Then it's settled." he said. "We'll forget it happened."

And before you could stop yourself, you said something you never thought you would say in this place. "I don't want to forget about it. I don't know exactly what it is I feel for you but... I do know I'm scared. Byakuya's dead. What if I'm next?"

You heard Fuyuhiko's breath hitch. 

"I don't wanna be scared. And I don't know why but... you make me not scared anymore." Tears pricked at your eyes and you felt one roll down your cheek.

Fuyuhiko took a moment before responding. "I'll keep you safe. And that's a fucking promise."

Another moment of silence passed and you sniffled. "Fuyuhiko...?

"Yeah?"

"Can... Can you hold me?"

Fuyuhiko let out a breath. "Um... yeah. Yeah, I can do that."

A moment later you felt the bed dip beside you and you rolled over to face him as he adjusted himself. 

"Hey..." You whispered.

The corner of his lips curled up in a small smile. "Hey..."

He wrapped his arms around your waist, pulling you closer as you held your own on either side of his face. 

"It was real?" he asked gently.

You nodded silently, glancing at his lips.

He leaned forward, his face just centimetres from yours. 

You stared into his eyes, and he raised his hand, wiping a tear away from your face with his thumb. 

And with that, he gently pressed his lips to yours and you returned the kiss without hesitation. 

The kiss is soft. Sweet. Gentle. Your lips moved in sync together, cherishing the feeling of each other's mouths and the warmth of each other's bodies. 

You could feel the rapid beat of his heart, taste the sweetness of some kind of dessert still on his mouth. You gently pulled him closer, as you'd wanted to do since the first time you saw him.

Though, you would never admit that fact.

It didn't take long for the kiss to become more heated as it went on. He licked your bottom lip, asking for entrance which you happily granted. He plunged his tongue inside your mouth, and you didn't bother fighting for control, as you knew very well, he would win.

"Y/n," he whispered. He says your name so incredibly softly you weren't sure if his mouth moved.

 You didn't get a chance to respond before his hand left the side of your face and tangled his fingers in your hair at the same moment as his lips connect heatedly with yours. He moved to hover his body on top of you, and his kiss instantly became intense. Deep. Sincere. Dominating. 

His kiss was full of something that you hadn't felt while you were on this island yet. It was full of feeling. Full of hope.

And from there, you let yourself fall into the deep bliss that Fuyuhiko Kuzuryu was making you feel.
