INCOMPLETELY BEAUTIFUL

chp-1: Bitter emotions

A/N POV:

You met Sylus a while ago. Firstly the two of you were enemies, after a while, it turned into more. Lovers. As your relationship went on, he was always on the colder side, that was just his personality. He wasn't around much too, you working as a hunter, him working for your opponent in the N109 zone. The Nest, a dark place close to N109 zone. It was late, he came home, not even saying anything to you as you were sitting on the couch.
He just grabbed a bottle of water from the kitchen, and sat on the armchair next to the couch, not even sparing you a glance. You were looking at the tv screen without acknowledging his presence.

He glanced at you for a brief moment, noticing your gaze fixated on the TV screen. He took a sip of his water, the silence in the room becoming almost palpable. After a few more seconds of sitting there, he spoke up, his voice cold and emotionless."Anything interesting?"

You flinch and look at him "when did you come?".
He gave a slight smirk upon noticing your flinch, amused by the fact that he startled you. He sat there, leaning back into the armchair, his gaze slowly meeting yours."Just got in," he replied coldly, taking another sip from his water bottle. You were too focused on the TV to notice."Oh yeah" you nod and look back at the screen.
He watched you as you looked back at the screen, his gaze lingering on you for a moment. A small smirk tugged at the corner of his lips, his gaze becoming slightly more intense.

"What are you watching, anyway?" he asked, his voice maintaining its cool tone, but there was a hint of curiosity to it now.
"Nothing just some documentaries" looking at the screen.
He raised an eyebrow at your response, clearly unimpressed by your choice of entertainment.
"Documentaries? Are you that bored?" He said, his voice laced with a hint of mockery."I thought we could be doing something better with our time."

"Since when we started to spend time together" you pick up the remote and change the channel with an uninterested tone.
He chuckled at your question, a cynical edge to his laugh."Since you agreed to be my girlfriend, remember?".He replied, his voice a mix of mockery and irritation. He watched as you changed the channel on the TV, leaning back more into the armchair and crossed his arms over his chest.

"Yeah but never been on a date with each other why on earth you want to spend time now" you said with an uninterested tone and changing the channels again and again.

He clenched his jaw, clearly annoyed by your nonchalant attitude and uninterested tone."I don't understand why you're so hard to please, I was just trying to spend some time with you, and you act like it's some kind of inconvenience." He said gruffly."And stop changing the goddamn channels."

"Obviously it's weird we never even talked properly and now you want to spend time together it's weird!!!" You sigh in irritation "why nothing is interesting in this dumb box".

He scowled at your response, his irritation growing with each word.

"Is it really that weird? We've been together for a while now, and I thought it was about time we actually act like a damn couple." He said, gritting his teeth. "Or do you expect me to just sit around and wait for you to decide when it's convenient for you to spend time with me?".

"Yeah you know what just do that because at first that's how I begged you to spend time behave like a couple go on a date and all you said was oh come on y/n don't be clingy " roll eyes and scoffs "now you can't handle the same attitude back".

His expression darkened further, clearly angered by your mocking tone.
"Don't act like I'm the one that's being difficult here, I'm just trying to spend time with you, and you act like it's some kind of goddamn chore. Maybe I should just leave you alone then, since you're so goddamn unappreciative."
He pushed himself up from the armchair and stood there, looming over you, his eyes locked on to yours, his gaze cold and intense.
"You know what? Forget it. I don't know why I even bother trying. Clearly, you don't care about this relationship as much as I do."

You smirk with bitter emotions and changing the channels to distract yourself "when I cared you never looked at me".

His irritation grew even more as he watched you smirk and change channels again, his jaw clenching in frustration."What do you mean, I never looked at you? We're together, aren't we? Don't act like I've been ignoring you this whole time."

"Oh thank you then "staying" with "me" and being here "effortlessly"" you said with irritated and sarcastic tone.

He let out an annoyed huff, clearly growing more irritated by the second, his patience wearing thin.
"What do you want me to say? That I'm sorry I don't always have time for you? That I have responsibilities that take up my time? Newsflash, I'm a lot busier than you. I have a lot more to deal with than just a damn relationship."

"Then why are you being a pain in ass if you're back from work just sleep rest eat for god damn food don't deal with this relationship at all". You get up from the couch and put the remote on the table.

He followed your movements with his eyes, his gaze narrowing.

"I come home to find you sitting here, watching some bullshit documentary, and I try to spend some time with you, and you act like it's a chore. What do you want from me? I'm here now, trying to make an effort. So don't start acting like I'm the one in the wrong, cause I'm not the one being difficult here."
