Third Person's P.O.V

Ryuji was painfully accustomed on Y/n's chronic lovesick expression, yet constantly relished from her returns.

Her relationship with Killua would stay incomparable compared to Ryuji as long as she comes back to him like this.

"Rest assured." She sat on the bed, setting a gentle sight on the patient. "They wouldn't touch you now that I'm here."

He took pleasure from the soothing warmth of her palm over his forehead. "Let's go home." He sat himself up.

"Only if you're feeling okay." She examined the bandage on his right leg, relieved they spared mercy. "You're the strongest, except when faced against the Zoldyck family and people par with their skills."

"So grateful for teaching me self-defense basics." He laughed and started coughing hard.

"You're very delicate for a delinquent." She quickly passed him the usual medicine. "You'll always be out of breath from your condition."

"Can't even have one smoke thanks to this stupid asthma." He took the pill and water.

Y/n waited 'till his breathing went steady before engaging a topic.

"Ryu Jin Zalcharis." She concernedly called his attention. "What's your dream?"

"Use the name you gave me." He frowned, faking a pout.

"Ryuji.."

"There you go." He lit up into a gullible grin.

Y/n, a character of an iron fortress, automatically matched such silly expression.

Certainly, the man of greatest influence is worthy of a title— Her right hand man.

"My dream... is to be your husband." Says the faithful male.

"Be serious." She countered.

"I am-"

"Other than that-"

"What about you?" He had a blank face.

"I'm taking premed courses as you see..." She immediately thought of Leorio. "Doctor is a befitting atonement for someone who took lives."

Seeing how her brutal past weighed her choices, he could only heave a deep sigh.

"What?-" She fussed.

"I'll be an athlete." He smirked. "Like boxing-"

"Your lungs won't last-"

"Your fragile heart's been immune to heartbreaks, leave my lungs alone will you?"

....

Y/n directed him an empty, dark gaze.

"Just joking." He held her hand, fending off the depths of her silent rage. "Y/n. Why'd you suddenly ask for my future plans?"

"You don't prioritize yourself enough." She scoots next to him, resting her legs on bed with back against the tufted headboard. "I respect you a lot so I hate when you get hurt because of me."

Their shoulders touched as he leaned close.

"Whether you marry me or not. I'll be by your side." Another heartfelt sentiments from blunt words truly sounded like Ryuji. "Till death do us part." He vowed.

"Don't you want to explore the world-"

"Im looking at it right now." He dropped a heavy hand on her head, caressing her hair.

Y/n dated him back in the days to prove they're not meant to be.

But dating him still signified his chances weren't at zero.

Once in a while her heart would swoon.

...

"Thanks for the weekly groceries." She yanks off the covers and got out of the bed. "But stop. I mostly eat outside."

"You're not trying." He sighed, carefully planting his feet down.

"What're you talking about?" She tilts her head.

"Give it your all or you'll regret it your whole life."

...

"I can't win-"

"Y/n. Steadfast. Do your best." He sincerely noted. "Whatever's holding you back is bullshit."

"He loves Retz-"

"I'll tell Retz what you guys did on the balcony if you ignore my advice." Ryuji stared up with his mean yet weary eyes.

Startled by his threat, she bent and neared her face to his. "If it doesn't work, I promise to marry you."

"That's the plan." He smirked, mischievously. "Praying to all gods may he never reciprocate-"

"Let's take you home." She scoops him up and carried him in bridal style.

Shook by her daring move, again, he yields into her charms. "Acting like a husband already~"

"Stay put."

"Kill, quit inhaling toxicants."

"Buzz off." He flung a poisonous vial on Milluki's area.

"You fucking menace!-" He wore his gas mask.

"A new immunization training?" Kalluto watched his brother in astonishment. "May I join-"

"Brother, I hope you forgive Y/n." Alluka abruptly got the gist of his brother's reckless vice.

"Take a look at this." Milluki snickered, watching outside their large window frame.

"They're leaving already?" Illumi joined inside the massive living room, sitting next to the fireplace as he cleaned his bloody pins.

"What's the ruckus?-" Kalluto and Alluka hurriedly took a view themselves.

...

The two youngest siblings instantly painted a bitter look on their faces.

Peeved by their reactions, Killua also checked.

"Don't look like that." Milluki egged him once more. "You might not be her favorite but you're still the favorite child in this house-"

"You better stop talking or I'll bust you out of this window-"
