The Promised Neverland x Reader

|Ray| Aflame

A/N: Shoutout to the person in the comments who said about the houses burning. I actually didn't think about that until you pointed it out XD. By the way, there's a reason why the thought at the end is in italics AND bold :3.

(Y/N)'s POV

"...And then, my classmate left as soon as-"

*CRUNCH*

"Huh?" I turned around and saw no one behind us.

"Man... Miss Krone's reaction was-"

'Hey,' I whispered to (F/N) as we continued to walk home.

"What?" they asked, oblivious.

'Don't you feel like there's someone following us? Like that crunching sound...' I asked as I looked around attentively.

"You're being too paranoid these days... It was probably just a cat or dog stepping on a leaf," they said and continued to walk back home nonchalantly. I clicked my tongue and followed them closely.

'I'm telling you, I think there's a stalker or something...' I grabbed their arm and looked around. (F/N) sighed and ignored me.

"Whatever, do what you want,"

"Huh?" a light blue envelope fell from my locker as I opened it.

"What's that?" (F/N) asked as they picked up the letter and looked for a name,

"Since when did you get a secret admirer?" they asked as they opened the letter.

"Hey!" I snatched the letter and glanced inside,

"I don't think you should be the one opening it..." (F/N) pouted and latched onto my back.

"Just a little peek!" they insisted as they tried to get the letter again.

"Let's just get to class!" I sighed as I dragged them to the classroom.

'Should I open it now or...?' I thought as I stared at the letter while (F/N) was finishing their lunch. 

"Just read it already," they impatiently slammed their lunch box creating a 'bam'.

"Okay, okay..." I said and opened the letter.

Your eyes shine bright like candlelight,
Soft and sweet in a gentle night.
Your soul burns brightly in the dark,
Yet it's enchanting to see, like a spark.

You're like a star that shines in the night sky,
Only you can make me feel so high.
So close, yet I can't reach you,
I can't call out, I don't know what to do.

Your touch sends my whole body aflame,
I fear to get tangled in your game.
To catch fire from the passion burning inside so vigorously,
I might lose myself, just for you to be with me.

Before I go crazy, I must ask,
Will you go out with me so I can take off this mask?

"Whoa..." (F/N) breathed out. I closed my mouth as I lightly slapped my cheeks to come to my senses.

"There isn't any name..." I muttered as I looked around the letter and envelope.

"Who do you think it is?" (F/N) asked excitedly.
