Kiwi, Recruit - König x Reader

no, never - 14

König walked outside and slowly scanned the area until he saw her.. she was slowly walking away, seemingly in thought... he silently stepped out of the shadows and started following her to see if she would notice, if not he would go up to her quietly so he wouldn't startle her. He wanted to catch up to her and once he was close enough, he would gently call her name to see if she would stop..

Y/n felt an unknown presence, she averted her eyes, her vision scaling her surroundings.

When she looked around, she would see König standing a few feet away from her, he was trying not to show any emotions... he couldn't have her noticing how worried he was about her. He slowly approached her though and once he was close enough, he called out her name quietly.

König: "Kiwi.."

"What!?" She snapped.

König felt a stab of pain in his throat when she snapped at him.. he wasn't expecting this... her yelling out of all things when he was just walking up to her to see if she was okay... he still maintained that calm, quiet expression on his face as he held up his hand.

König: ". . . Could we... talk..?"

"Do...we need to...?" She cooly asked.

König just stood there watching her for a moment.. she was so calm now.. that outburst just now had completely surprised him. He felt that she wasn't really angry anymore but she was still maintaining that quiet expression on her face while trying to hide her emotions.. but why? Why did she push him away before only to act like this now? König slowly took a deep breath before responding, his tone was low and quiet.

König: ".. Yes.. I'd like to.."

"Okay...then." She shrugged, "Talk."

The way she spoke, the way she acted made him feel a bit uneasy.. she seemed so closed off, it was like she was trying to keep him at a distance.. he slowly took a step closer to her but stopped himself once she didn't respond in any way.

König: ".. May I ask you something?"

"As you are my superior, you may ask me questions..."

König paused when she responded, her comment made his eyebrows raise slightly. She was still acting so professional with him... she acted like she didn't care.. but she did care.. he knew it. He felt his chest tighten, but he also felt his stomach drop a bit. He felt a bit confused by her still maintaining that professional attitude with him.

König: ".. Yes, I understand... I was referring to a personal matter though..."

"Oh..." she sighed.

König stayed silent for a moment before he eventually spoke up, he felt his throat tighten once again but he managed to get out the words.

König: ".. We've had that conversation a few weeks ago though.. when you pushed me away and told me to stay away from you..."

"What do you want to know...sir."

The way she responded with a bit more distance between her and him really hurt him.. and to add that professional tone on top of it all... it made him feel a bit bitter... her pushing him away hurt him enough already but now.. she was acting even more coldly.. all because of that conversation.. because she knew how he felt about her... he started to feel his anger build inside of him.. but he couldn't say it... it wouldn't be right. He tried to control the growing anger inside of him as he responded.

König: "Why.."

She tilted her head, "Why...what sir?"
