❛ Look After You. Chrollo Lucilfer

ii. wish upon a star

Chrollo Lucilfer was not one to do one-night stands. He was not one to create useless soul-ties that would be no use for him in the future, and though he knew that sleeping with a certain red-eyed vampire would create a useless soul-tie, he had found himself in a bed with her, wanting to please her with all his might just to hear that magical sound escape her pretty little lips.

His eyes opened, and for the first time in years, Chrollo awoke pleased, which has never once happened due to the stress of his duties as the leader of the Phantom Troupe. He patted the other side of the bed, expecting to feel the body that felt so small compared to his, but was met with nothing but the feeling of crinkled sheets.

He turned his head, finding that the goddess he slept with was no longer beside him, which he found frustrated him greatly. He sat up with a disappointed sigh, before standing up and making his way towards the fridge the hotel provided, wanting to satisfy the dry sensation in his throat.

Grabbing a bottled water, he swallowed the liquid hurriedly, as if it was going to relieve the frustration he felt. No matter how much water he drank, it was never going to replace the way she tasted. If Chrollo Lucilfer was to be considered an alcoholic if it meant he was addicted to the way she tasted, then so be it.

He gripped the table that was closest to him, finding himself in a messed up state which never happens. Chrollo Lucilfer was composed and collected, always calculating the situation at hand so that he never ends up as aggravated as he is right now. That was his role as the leader, to be someone his troupe looks up to in their needs of confusion and help.

And all it took was for him to be in such a state, was one girl. One singular girl to wind him up to such a state, he felt so out of place in his own body. Because this was not him. This was not Chrollo Lucilfer. Chrollo is calm, wise, collected.

He most definitely was not frustrated and aggravated because of one girl that he chose to have a one-night stand with, knowing full well that it would mean absolutely nothing.

So why is he so angry that she left without a goodbye? Why is he so angered, because what she has done is something that Chrollo has done multiple times with those he chose to have one-night stands with?

He took multiple breaths, trying to calm the burning rage he felt, and soon enough, it did. Soon enough, after blinded by his own rage, he had then noticed the note that had been placed on the table, which was obviously written by her.

You were magical. This is certainly an unforgettable night. I sure do hope we end up meeting again.

And yes, no phone number. If fate is in our favor, then he'd make sure I meet you again.

Until then,
Keiko Rei.

Oh they'd meet again alright. Even if it meant he was to bend fate's will with his own very hands, even if it meant killing hundreds, Chrollo Lucilfer will make sure that he'd cross paths with Keiko Rei.

"Until then." Because when that time comes, he definitely isn't letting her go again.

Keiko Rei valued her peace more than anything else in this accursed world that she has witnessed the growth of for over five-hundred years. If she noticed that there was even a slight disturbance regarding her peace, it was either she ran away as fast as possible without ever looking back, or that so called 'disturbance' turns into her next meal.
