Five Yen For Your Love. [Yato x OC]

Dear God...

"Dear God of Victory in War,

Hey old man! It's me, Yato! Yeah, I'm the idiot that ran away from a marriage - because of the fear that I'd have to be responsible and all that ya'know?

Well...not a month or two ago, your daughter, C, had come back into my life. I ran but she chased, after years that I now have lost count of. Im tryin' to sound as polite as possible sir, because I'm bloody asking you to accept me again!

I know, I know... I being the dense and foolish and incredibly handsome (might I add) coward, was too stupid and blind to not see Ceara as the wife I've always needed, will need, and will never cease to love.

She came to me with the marriage cancellation documents, and I was too shell-shocked to see my C, that I signed it.

She snapped at me to sign it actually, I still feel the sharp stab that day. I thought she hated me. But, it was the total opposite of that! She offered to help me "get the girl" I had convinced myself to love.

After many recollections of the past - the numerous times I've unintentionally played with her feelings and hurt her - I finally had some common sense ,literally knocked into me, when I saw her with that girly, pretty-boy Pari.

All in all, Sir, I want to tell you that I finally realised the love that I've had since the very first day I saw that little girl of golden, red slashed hair.

Unknowingly, she'd become such a natural part of my life - very much like the air that one breathes - that I didn't see the value of her presence until of course, all of it ceased. Just because I am an idiot.

But this idiot loves your daughter. This Idiot, Yato loves Ceara. I love her enough to marry her. I love her enough to forget the existence of condoms.

Sorry, that was not what I meant.

All I want you to do sir, is to bless our marriage. I love Ceara, and she loves me in return.

Your cheeky cat-brat,

Yato, the almighty God of Calamity in War!!!"

Finally, satisfied with his lengthy letter, he folds it up and envelopes it in the sealed Godly-Mail paper.

Too eager to post this, he immediately decides to visit this recipient.

He was so proud of this lengthy, very formal letter. Too proud, he'd have never done this if it weren't for C. He loves her, and he can't wait for her father to read this and accept him. Honestly, it had taken him two nights to write something that would satisfy the old man. Old god.

***

If not scared. It had to be the terrifying fear or the possibility that C's father would end up putting an end to the God of Calamity, even before he could have his own shrine.

"And wh should I believe any stupid word scribbled on this paper?" he asked with a blank and bored face.

Yato tried to answer but their discussion was interrupted by Ceara.

"What's going on?" she asked, brows furrowed, lips pulled into a grim, thin line of worry.

She didn't even let anyone answer when she rolled her eyes and stomped her way in to her father's room. She wore a floral dress, with two straps, showing her glowing skin. A little bump near her stomach, clearly visible when she walked. Yato couldn't help but smile wide when he saw her walk in.

"Come on Papa, you can't ask Yato to prove himself with dreadful challenges, you'll end up making me widow! You knew him since his diaper days, you know the only way he'd commit just so it would be enough for you to rest with a happy heart!"

Slowly seating herself next to Yato she pulled on his hand. She had her hand fisted.

Yato and her father watched her actions intently.

He smiled when he knew what it was she was doing.

"Just Five Yen Yato. Promise to love me and our baby. That's my one request, my one wish.

Just...

Five Yen For Your Love..."
