Captivated Ajin (Yandere!Kei NagaiXReader)

Planting

"Is this the right house?" You wondered as you stood in front of a foreign house. Strangely, all of the houses in the surrounding area were far apart. You nervously played with your hands and took a deep breath before you knocked on the door.

"Who is it?" You hear a deep croak from the other side.

"U-Uh, Mr. Horiguchi?" You called out.

It took quite a while before you hear the door unlock. Behind the door revealed a slim old cranky man, hunching over as he squints his eye over your figure.

"And who're you?" He cleared his throat, attempting to speak a little nicer towards you.

"I-I'm..." 

You forced yourself to smile with a bright face. It was hard to keep up this act but you had to do it. Your hands trembled as you tried to speak again.

"I'm.... R-Ryouta's girlfriend." Deep down inside you wanted to cringe in disgust.

"Hmmm...." He tilts toward you with a face full of doubt. You can smell a hint of alcohol coming from his breath.

"You? You're Ryouta's girlfriend?? I didn't know that Ms. Yamanaka's grandson would ever have a girlfriend!" He chortled, pulling away. Fortunately, he bought your little lie, causing you to laugh along with him anxiously. 

"Yamanaka... So that's her name."

"What's your name?" He leans against the doorway, crossing his arms.

"I'm... (Name)." You went stiff again.

"Well, '(Name)', there's no need for you to be shy. I'm in charge of the neighborhood watch so you don't have to worry about anything. Now what brings you here, little lady?"

"Well, I was wondering if you have any carrot seeds for Ms. Yamanaka to use." You requested.

"Carrot seeds? Oh, sure. Hang on a sec." He goes back inside his home.

You looked around to see some people far into the garden field. Not one of them took their eyes away from you. You felt like you didn't fit here. Like you didn't belong in this environment. 

"Here you are." He hands you several pack of carrot seeds as you accepted them.

"Thank you very much Mr. Horiguchi." You quickly bowed and left his area.

"Stop by again some time, (Name)!" He waves.

"I will!" You responded as you rushed back to the old lady's house.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Make sure you dig deep enough for the seeds." Yamanaka said.

"Okay." 

You had a set of different clothes on. You wore a long white shirt with a  v-neck and pair of comfortable capris. You wore gloves and a straw hat to keep out the sun. 

"I'm glad that my old clothes fit you. I'm not getting any younger, y'know!" She jested with a hearty laugh before she rips the bag of seeds open.

"Thank you for lending them to me." You responded.

"Oh, it's no big deal!" She smiled.

As you took a trowel to dig the dirt, you can see other people in the field doing their share of work. It was peaceful staying there. It seemed like anyone who lived in the mountains can give two cents about what the news was saying. Their problems did not concern these villagers. You now know why Kei thought it'd be a good idea to stay here for a while. He returned to his own hideout.

As soon as you helped Yamanaka plant the carrot seeds,  You took off your hat and fanned yourself in the mass heatwave that suddenly came during the daytime. You took a bottle of water and sat down by the small shed nearby to join Yamanaka in the shade.

"It's pretty hot out here. I wonder what Kei is doing." You took a sip from the bottle, feeling a tad bit disappointed that the cold water turned warm due to the sun and heat. 

"Aw, you're worried about him." Yamanaka commented.

"Ehh, It's just that he's been gone for so long, that's all." You replied.

"Now that you mention it, he has been gone for quite awhile. Why don't you want to go find him, dear?"

"What?" You nearly choked on the water, wiping your face with your dirty gloves which was a terrible idea. You were already covered in dirt and that was already the last thing you need.

"Go on. Explore the forest. It's not hard to find him. I'm going to head on home." Yamanaka says as she stretches her back.

"What about the gardening tools?" You asked.

"Just leave them here. We'll come back to pick them up early in the morning tomorrow. It's really hot outside today." She explained.

"Uh, okay..." You shrugged.

"I'll see you back at home then." You bowed before you went into the woods up the hill.

  "Just tell him that I'm prepping lunch for us!" She waved at you as you took off the gloves to shove them in your pocket. 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You walked into the woods, searching for Kei. Your stomach was grumbling again since you haven't had a bite since morning. The trees offered you shade as you continuously walked though them. 

"Where could he be?" You wondered as you casually strolled.

Suddenly, you found a trail that led you out in the sun.

"I'm pretty sure I'm lost." You scratched your head, finding yourself on a cliff.

You looked down to see the shore flow in unison.

"Water!!" You cried with glee.

You felt like taking a swim in the wide ocean. As you climbed down to get to the bottom, you kicked off your shoes, running wild as your hat flies off your head. You quickly stripped down to your underwear as you reached the cold water.

"AHAHA!!" It's been awhile since you last saw a vast ocean.

You floated on your back, feeling the small waves move your body. You almost forgot about searching for Kei but he can wait, right?

"WHOO!" You screamed with your arms raised. 

This was indeed the feeling of freedom here. Your parents have no idea what you're doing but they will never see this side of you.

Kei walks up to the cliff and witnessed your figure, swimming along the current. You splashed the water to create collision with the small waves and went on a spree in the ocean, going deeper and deeper.

"What an idiot."
