Shattered Mirrors (Depressed Karamatsu x reader)

Chapter 5: Do you love me?

"...What did you say?"

I blushed when he asked that. I stood and laugh nervously. "Well I think we should unpack. I'll start!" I say walking over to the suitcase but Karamatsu stood up and grabbed my wrist. "Please..You have to tell me again...what did you say?...I have to make sure I heard you right." He says in a shaky tone.

I turn around and sigh. "I..I said I care and love you..I wanted to tell you...Maybe I should have said something sooner and we could..we could h-have avoided this m-mess. I..I am so sorry for being a coward." I heard nothing but silence before Karamatsu pulled me into a hug. "N-No I'm sorry. I was also being a coward...I have loved you for a long time but didn't say anything...I was also selfish."

"Selfish!?! How?!" I exclaim and he was silent for a bit. He pulled back to face me "when you came to the house with my brothers. I..I heard them say you were here..I'll admit that made me hesitate, yet I still did it...I was selfish for not considering how you would feel if I were gone. For that I apologize dearly."

Silence again filled the house. I only now registered that I haven't hugged him back so I quickly wrap my arms around him. "I-Idiot..that's not being selfish...Karamatsu?" He hummed in response "I really do love you, I'm going to do everything I can to make you happy and well again." I say as I nuzzled my face into his chest.

"To be honest, I already feel a million times better...Thank you y/n..I love you too." He says lifting my face to look at me.

"Kara?"

"Y/n."

I blushed as he leaned his forehead against my own. I saw some light had returned to his vibrant brown eyes. Before we could lean in any closer a loud and all to familiar, voice interrupted.

"THE HELL?!"
