"I love you y/n. Don't you ever forget that.".
T/W- comfort, blood, coughing, slight angst, use of gender-neutral terms such as Mx,
The fall in Fontaine was beautiful, the happenings were not. You had fallen head over heels for someone who wouldn't love you back. He was almost emotionless, rarely showing anything, but there were a few times you knew how he was feeling. You'd heard a rumor that he was the hydro dragon, it made sense to you. Whenever it rained you felt a guilty pang in your stomach, you weren't there to help him.
Lyneys court trial was today, and you were gonna be there to support him. But the person you were most excited to see was Neuvillette. He looked so perfect sitting there addressing the court. The way he pieced together evidence and made a story, the way he spoke, and the way he looked so perfect. You had fallen for him even more, then you started to cough. You had just gotten over being sick so it made sense, but when you continued to cough you excused yourself from the courtroom.
When you arrived in the bathroom the coughs became more frequent, but this time petals came up. A rainbow rose. Neuvillettes favorite flower, you had heard him tell the Melusines.
Hanahaki disease: A disease in which the victim coughs up flower petals when they suffer from one-sided love. It ends when the beloved returns their feelings (romantic love only; strong friendship is not enough), or when the victim dies. It can be cured through surgical removal, but when the infection is removed, the victim's romantic feelings for their love also disappear.
You continued to cough up the petals, it was horrible. Over the next few days it got worse, instead of just petals it was an entire flower. Lynette had noticed something was off with you, you were a lot more quiet than usual.
"Y/n are you feeling alright?" Her voice was laced with concern.
"Yeah I'm fine Lynette, just a bit tired that's all."
"Hmm alright."
But it wasn't alright. Your condition continued to worsen. There were two options to fix this, either you confess your undying love for him or you have a surgery. The downside of the surgery is that you'll forget all your feelings for the person. You didn't want to forget the person you loved, who would? Maybe it was time to tell him. But he wouldn't like you would he?
As soon as you stepped out the door it began to rain. Shit... the guilty pang was back. But this time you would be able to be there for him.
While walking to the court house you coughed up a few more petals earning weird looks from passers-by. But when you reached the court house, it wasn't just flowers or petals that you coughed up but blood. You didn't have much time.
You knocked on the door to his office and a Melusine opened it for you.
"Hello Mx, sir Neuvillette is busy at this moment, would you like to book an appointment." It's smile was so adorable you couldn't help but smile even under the circumstances.
"Hello, I'm sorry to barge in like this, but this is very urgent."
"Sorry you'll have to book an appointment."
"Please, you may not believe me but it's life or death."
"Who is it?" You heard a voice call from inside the room.
"Mx L/N."
"Oh let them in."
You coughed up some petals and the Melusine began to understand the situation. "Oh I'm sorry."
"It's quite alright." You gave a weak smile and walked into his office.
"Sir Neuvillette-"
He chuckled a little. before saying, "No need for formalities Y/N."
You felt your cheeks getting hotter by the second, he looked so perfect..but his eyes were teary and it was still a little rainy outside. Without realizing you coughed up a rainbow rose.
"Oh.." he was shocked at what had happened. "Hanahaki isn't it.?"
You nodded your head not expecting it to go like this.
"Who is it you love?"
For some reason those words made you blush, but also made you cough more. Being here was probably not a good idea, but you had to. If this all falls to shit the only other option is the surgery.
"Neuvillette... I.. it's you."
He stared back in shock at those words. "M-me how could you love someone like me?"
Tears began streaming down your face. "I don't know."
"Oh hey don't cry." It began to rain a little heavier. He walked over and hugged you, tight. "There's not reason to cry."
You couldn't help but cry, and burry your face in his chest. It was warm, a comforting sensation, it felt even better when he began to stroke your hair.
"I love you y/n. Don't you ever forget that."
