Home Is Where You Are (Kurapika x Reader)

P R I O R I T I E S

(Y/n)'s P.O.V

We're dating.... For a week now....

Yes.

We are..

Dating...

Aren't we??....

*Bam!*

I barged in my 'boyfriend's' room. "Kurapika! We are dating right??!"

"Yes." He sincerely answers, wrapping his black tie around his collar, tying it neatly, currently getting ready for his work.

"But.. but nothing has changed... This is just like... how we usually treat each other-" I sulked on the corner.

"What's wrong?" He draw himself near.

"You have a job?? Even though.. It's holiday?... And we just started dating. Can't we make this day special?" I asked cutely.

"Alright. Let's do that later, (Y/n)." He pecked a kiss on my forehead and walked straight pass of me, bringing his bag and stuffs.

"O-okay...then..." He kissed me... I smiled to myself.

"Take care, honey!" I waved goodbye. He paused for a second and turned for a brief moment before departing.

Oh..

What a new reaction..

Did I made his heart flutter??

"He's so cute.."

Is it just me or he seems a lot more quiet when we got into a romantic relationship?? A stray thought got in my mind.

I brushed it off.

"Time to cook breakfast.."

Breakfast....

I gasped, turning pale. "I DIDN'T EVEN COOK A MEAL FOR HIM. I SHOULD'VE WAKEN UP EARLY. I'M A FAILURE. I CAN'T BELIEVE THI--"

*Ring~*

*Ring~*

.....

This is unusual. Forgetting his phone....

"Hello?" I picked up the call as I made myself a cup of dark coffee for a change— Cuz... I'm already quite a grown up woman now...

"Mou~ Kura-chan! I told you to-- Eh? Who is this? Ah! His little sister? Ara~ Gomenasai. I'm Neon, Kurapika's princess erm..... I mean his boss."

What.... the f*ck..... Princess??  She completely sounded like a brat. I choked from my drink... not because it's bitter....

"I'm his girlfriend." I replied in monotone.

"(Y/n), did you see my pho-- Ah. Someone called? Let me--" He came to fetch back his device.

"Ssshhhh.." I pressed a finger on his lips. "I'm talking with your boss, dear"

"What??" He stole it in instant, speaking to her in a sharp tone yet in a soft manner.

I just stood in front of him with arms crossed and a crooked kind smile. He seemed to notice this and turned around— Continuing their conversation.

"Go on... I don't mind." I snarled, squinting my eyes while repeatedly tapping my foot on the ground.

The call ended and he slid his phone right back in his pocket. "(Y/n)? What was that about?" He placed a hand on my head. "Hey... Really? Glaring?"

"Mhn.. That girl... She sounded really cute.... yeah.."

He laughed. "What's with that crumpled face??"

"Sh-shut up!.......*ahem* ...So....are you always with that woman?"

"No... Will that answer satisfy you?" He patted my head. "(Y/n), she's the heiress of the company... I can't be rude."

"But is it okay to be rude to your girlfriend?" I clicked my tongue, slapping his hand away. I hate it... when my childish attitude gets the better of me.

Jealousy should make me feisty, not a brat!!

At this point... we'll breakup in few days...

I'm so dumb... and yet... I can't help but be a fool for him.. I feel like crying.

"My job is my priority...... Well, one of my priorities. You are my first priority (Y/n). So don't get jealous over little things." I felt his hand intertwining with mine.

My face burned. I'm humiliated...

Again, it was a hard slap of reality— I have to work harder... To prove I'm the deserving girl for him.... My head droop down. I can't meet him in the eye now.

"I'm sorry."

"No problem." He sweetly held both my hands and gently rubbed the back of them. "Is it okay if I leave for work now?"

"Mhn."

He's only my boyfriend because I took his half-hearted offer for granted— I'm quite sneaky myself.

I'll never overlook the chances, so he shouldn't be even this selfless over me... Even so, that part of him evokes joy and hopes... Since there's a possibility he's just suppressing himself to love.

He slightly lifted my chin, grabbing my eye contact. "(Y/n).... It's okay. I know what you're thinking."

My heart goes crazy for such moment.

"Don't rush. You're indeed just a kid- erm a young-teen. We can't deny that fact. Just act the way you're supposed to." A teasing yet a genuine smile plays on his lips.

Ah.. Again....

How can he make me feel special by simple words, expressions and contact? I'm about to tear up.

He's a ray of sunshine from my voided and cloudy state.

"Just let me spoil you. Rely on me. I'm your boyfriend now... Aren't I?"

He's always like this ever since we met...

Every time he comforts, and his kind warmth emanates... it just makes me never want to let him go.

"(Y/n)?? Stop spacing out. I hope you'll listen more now that I'm your lover.." He sighs.

I groaned, subdued. "Stop talking! I'm sorry!— I get it. But I'm a grown up! A. Grown. Up. Lady. I'm independent! Quit treating me like that! Geez... We're together now but you still treat me the way you used to-"

"Do I used to do this?" He suddenly steals a kiss on my lips.

.....

I thought I saw heaven-

"Argh! Why are you so natural at everything!! Stop acting so smoothly!" I swung my hands around, extremely flustered.

"I can't let a kid lead me on dating. I'll be the one to do it. So, all you have to do is to look forward." He pinched the bridge of my nose. "See you later... honey."

Honey? I watched his figure leaving... as I remained dumbstruck.

I'm not dreaming am I??

*Slaps herself*

"Ouch..."

I slumped down the sofa.... Still in a daydreaming state.

I've already won over Kurapika...
