----------

Bright, extravagant moonlight
beaming down the bustling
streets of Japan,
Chilly, calming breeze
of the starry night;
Soft, Talc-like blanket of snow
covered the frosty houses,
buildings and sidewalks
of the country.
Everything was perfect..
The warm cuddles, cups of hot
choco, and the perfect time to relax and have some time alone with your
one and only.

"It's been a long time since we last did this!" [Y/n], a cheerful, amiable woman whom the spirited Red Head adored in countless ways, said in her usual jolly yet somehow calm tone.

"Ah, yes. I missed these kinds of moments with you, [nickname you want him to call you].." He smiled, a soft chuckle escaping his lips as his hold on her hand tightened a bit.

"You have always been so busy with practicing.. I mean, not that I want you to stop swimming or anything! Just.." She softly sighed, tucking loose strands of hair behind her ear, "want some more of your time.."

Matsuoka Rin, the competitive freestyle swimmer of Japan and Australia, couldn't help but feel guilty on the inside, knowing that he's been too focused on practicing for the near competition, he was already giving insufficient time and attention to his little princess. And of course, that was very unmanly and 'uncool' for him. He always wanted what was best for [y/n], so he frequently tried his best to make her happy despite his busy schedule by giving her flowers by surprise, giving her sweet chocolates and even cooking breakfast for her before he leaves the house for his practices with his team.. but it all wasn't enough. All she ever wanted was him, nothing else.. And he realized that now.

He stopped in his tracks while [y/n] unknowingly continued, but stopped once her hand was tugged. She turned her body towards his direction, hand still perfectly intertwined with his. "Hmm? What's the matter, Rin?" [Y/n] asked, tilting her head in curiosity.

Sharkboy, as [y/n] calls him, fell silent for a moment as he just stood there, staring at her.

What if she's not happy anymore?

What if someone comes along and makes her happy than I can?

What if.. someone gives her everything she's been craving to feel?

Dozens and dozens of what if's came rushing to his mind, making him pretty uncomfortable and worried. Rin has always hated overthinking things, specially in his relationship with [y/n].. Because it has always caused them trouble and cold nights without each others warmth.

"[Y/n].. What if I.." He sighed, biting his lower lip after doing so as he tried gaining more strength to ask the question he's been longing to ask.

"Are you still happy being with me?"

"Rin, we've been dating for 8 long years.. and you still ask me that?" She chuckled, taking a step forward to the distraught male infront of her.

"It just makes me anxious.. and scared. VERY scared.." Rin replied, pursing his lips as he felt a bit uneasy with the possibilities lurking around every corner, "I don't want to lose you.."

[Y/n]'s soulful, [eye shape] eyes widened at what her partner just said. Despite knowing how downhearted Rin was, she still managed to crinkle into her signature charming, and ardent smile at how cute he was. She raised her hand and pinched his cheeks, soft giggles escaping her mouth, "My little Sharkboy is so cute when he's worried about things like that~! ♡"
