Stuck in a Yandere Book

[ch:3] 41

5 hours till Midsummer night's Kiss.

Everyone suddenly knows your last name but you are too delirious to care. The tension in the club room is palpable as everyone ran around like headless chicken; trying to get everything ready before the guests/audience starts pouring in. Which is 4 hours from now. During this rush, you unceremoniously got shoved into the dressing room to change.

..

While changing into his costume,Yato felt the pit in his stomach grow larger by the minute. He felt fear for the first time in a while but it wasn't himself. It is for you. He can only hope his suspicions are wrong. Once in his life he prayed that you are right and he is just 'worrying too much'

..

"It's taking her a while in there. Should I knoc--" Rin.
"No!.. I mean. Let's give her a minute, this costume has lots of pieces." Sam.
" Which is exactly why I wanted to see if f/n needs help with anything." Rin.
"No. Let's just wait for a min. Please!" Sam said turning their back to both Rin and Mark.

Rin looked at Mark, who nodded back at Rin. She left as Mark approached Sam. "Sam, I need you to be honest with me. I care for you deeply. But the girl in stuck in that dressing room is my best friend. So I need you to start talking. "
As Mark put his foot down. Sam knew there was no where left to run.

Satoshi was done getting ready much faster than Shizou and Yato. Because they had big spotlight roles as the main villain (Shizou) and main love interest (Yato). Satoshi on the other hand, is just some guy on the stage. His costume is generic fantasy mediaeval outfit. Nothing special and honestly he prefers it this way. The less attention on him the better.

After seeing the entire conversation between Sam, Mark and Rin.Satoshi got extremely worried. Sam,his close friend who always supported him through thick and thin, is tearing up. He should be there for them... These thoughts however could not catch up to him as he ran for you, towards your dressing room.

A/n : Play this song as the bgm or I will eat your ass.

3 hours till Midsummer night's Kiss.
A dark static repeated hauntingly, as your mind is slowly processing the reality of the situation. It hurts so much that you can't form a single thought anymore. You take a red lipstick from the vanity table.

No one will love you if you are unattractive

And start marking your naked reflection in the mirror.
Shading, drawing and craving out unnecessary, ugly parts of your reflection. Now life would be so much easier.You are so tired. You are so tired of being scared, feeling like you are being watched, having your personal items destroyed, feeling like every single one of your friends hate you.But look at you now! So pretty,perfect... Look at how in control you are.
..
.
.

With a sudden knock,the lipstick slipped out of your hands. As you came to your senses, tears erupted out of you, as the burning hot shame from your actions sizzled your skin.

Don't be dramatic it's only some plastic.
No one will love you if you are unattractive

Quickly you hid your body with a cloak and rubbing the red lipstick markings off the mirror. Inadvertently, creating a bigger mess, as the knocks stopped.
You quickly left the mess and sat in the corner of the room, face hidden between your knees, back facing the room.

Satoshi enters the room, eyes closed,hands trailing on the walls until it hit the switches.
*Click*
*Click*
After turning off all the  lights,he locked the door behind him and sat by the door. Far away from you. Satoshi could hear you crying. So he decided to pick the lock using his mini picks set.He knows the feeling shame of being caught crying far too well to put you through that. So the lights will stay off until you are ready. He didn't say anything,still waiting on you.

" Who is there?"
"It's m-me, Satoshi."
"..."

-

" So... The dress doesn't...fit"
" I fig-figured as much."
"Okay..."

-

"How much do you hate me right now ?"
" I don't th-think I could ever hate you. Even if-if I tried."
"You are very kind... I don't deserve that sort of kindness."
"What makes yo-you say that?"
" I ruined everything at the last moment"
"Did you break in-in here in the middle of the ni-night to cut the costumes up and take away chunks of-of fabric?"
"What?No!"
"So you didn't ru-ruin anything."

" But! If my body--"

"Your bo-body is fine. The image in the mirror, in-in the photos may lie,your own ey-eyes may li-lie but I won't. Be-Because I hear your laugh-laughter when a joke catches you off gu-guard, I see your face when you see a cute ani-animal, I see you when he-hear that your friend got into a re-relationship. Your face is lo-love, your body is joy, your existence is-is a beautiful blessing."

Satoshi felt in that moment like when one see's their own reflection into someone they love and suddenly all of their own flaws becomes loveable.

Satoshi heard footsteps and suddenly a heavy bit of weight crashed onto him You fell into his arms, as Satoshi wrapped his arms around. You started crying again. And this time Satoshi did too. He felt a surge of confidence and self love he has never felt before all through protecting you and loving you.

Satoshi didn't care how perfect you looked in Shizou or Yato's arms anymore. Sure, his arms aren't as muscular as Yato's. But he can still comfort you just fine.His hair isn't as thick long and luxurious hair but you can still hide your face in the crook if his neck.
What more could he ever need?

Strength. He needs to be strong,so that you can rely on him more. Satoshi knows what he needs to do now, it's just... He is not built like that ; he is not Yato you know. He doesn't have confidence like that.

AAAAHHH FUCK IT!! LIKE HELL HE WILL LET THOSE 2 DUMB GUYS (Yato and Shizou) WIN OVER HIM!

He doesn't need to be perfect or beautiful to you have. He doesn't need to smoke cigarettes and be cool to keep you. You love him. He can feel it. You do. And that's enough. That's it.

2 hours till Midsummer night's Kiss.
"F/n ha-have you calmed down a-a bit?"
"I think yeah. But still I feel so much anxiety over what to do--"
"Wow yo-you feel anxiety too? "
"Of course I do!I am a human."
"Would ha-have fooled me-me."
"Wow just got roasted like a pig--"
"No no no no no! I meant that you-you are bea-beautiful and per-perfect like a go-goddes--"
"Ahahhah! sorry for teasing!"
"Stop !! You kno-know how fragile I am ! My hea-heart can't take this! Any-Anyways don't worry about a single thi-thing anymore. I got this. You ca-can lean on me. I will-will solve everything for you my ***hyacinth, I will do any-anything. "
"Thanks Satoshi you are really sweet and kind."
