A/N: Quick note...knowing how Knives is the reader isn't human because well...Knives kills humans...
     Also! I'm making a little somethin' for Knives because why not? This man needs more love than all the shit people give him. He's pretty smexy anyways.
There will be a smut for Knives at some point but before then no smut for him for now...this is my first time writing for him so I need to get used to it.
On to the one-shot!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Something about humans drew you closer to them. Maybe it was their determination to survive. Their curiosity or hunger to learn and understand. Whatever it was that drew you to them, it didn't make Knives very happy. It made him murderous and jealous.
Every human you got close to, Knives would murder brutally. Every town you decided to go to, Knives always sent one of the Gung-Ho-Guns with, preferably Legato. Every time Vash tried to talk you out of being with Knives, a tragedy occurred. Needless to say, at the end of those days, you would always hide away and cry to yourself. You knew he had his reasons to do what he does, but you wanted him to at least give you the freedom to do what you want without some sort of catastrophe taking place.

Knives always protected you. Whether you needed protection or not, he was always making sure you were more protected than he was. You loved that about him. He saw you as something truly priceless that he couldn't bare to lose, and if he did then he would die. I guess you could say that you saw him the same way. You wanted to protect him just as much as he protected you, but it would be easier said than done since he wouldn't even let you touch a weapon, let alone witness a fight. He wanted to preserve your innocence to the very core, even if it meant never leaving your side. However, you hardly ever saw him, making your relationship with him seem distant like he didn't want a thing to do with you.
That will change very soon.

~~~

You've been running off to different towns and cities lately, Vash almost always getting caught in some battle that your 'bodyguard' Legato created for him, and you almost getting shot every time if it wasn't for Vash's pacifist nature and the fear of releasing his brother's fury out on humanity. But this time, Vash wasn't going to be the one to save you.

The former Gung-Ho-Gun, Nicholas D. Wolfwood, was holding you at gun point. Believing that you were just as guilty as all the other Gung-Ho-Guns that relentlessly murdered without reason. You stared at him with wide eyes that brimmed with tears, clearly this man was not going to let you go alive.

"Wolfwood! Leave her alone! You're making a mistake. (Y/N) would never hurt anyone!" Vash screamed at the murderous priest from his current fight with Legato.
All of the yelling and gunshots terrified you, but unable to speak any words, you had to mentally thank Vash for trying to get Wolfwood to spare your life. Your mind was racing one thousand miles a second, just desperately trying work out an escape plan that will leave you with your life. You couldn't even make out what Wolfwood and Vash were saying to each other, but from adrenaline, you quickly ran away from the town as fast as you could, occasionally sprouting your wings to give you boost before hiding them away to prevent them from getting shot.

Falling to your knees, you gripped handfuls of scorched sand and desperately attempted to regain your lost breath. Distant gunshots could be heard, and you could only hope that nobody got killed. However, the gunshots didn't last long before loud rumbling could be heard followed by an extremely bright white light.
Turning your head, your vision was met with a bright ball of white light enveloping the town. No doubt there were large numbers of deaths. You shielded your eyes from the light, waiting for it to dim back down.
Once the blinding light faded, you uncovered your eyes and looked towards the town only to make eye contact with Millions Knives.
He looked upset with you, but mixed up with the anger resided worry and.....fear.

Yes. You were certain that you were seeing fear swimming within his eyes. For the first time, he was scared. Scared of losing you to the hands of a human being.

"Knives.."

Before you could finish, Knives spoke with a stern voice "Do you know what could've happened to you?! You could've been killed!!"

You hung your head in shame "I'm sorry, Knives..."

"You're such an idiot, running off like that!! The fact that you want to be around humans is upsetting! I give up so much to protect you and you make my job harder by waltzing off towards danger!!"
His lecturing made your head hang lower and lower. Knives knew how to make you feel bad, and this was the worst he ever made you feel.

"Regardless of anything...." a pair of strong warm arms wrapped around you in a gentle way, as if you were a fragile precious gemstone, "please...don't do that ever again," you burst into tears as soon as his voice became soft and gentle, full of worry and care for only you. Using his thumb, Knives carefully wiped the tears out of your eyes.

"You know how much you matter to me. You're all I have. I don't want to lose you."

"I'm sorry, Knives. I love you"

"I love you too"

I tried my absolute best......

He may be a bit OOC but I think he's pretty in character
