Incubus [BOOK 2] (Jimin FF)

Returned Feelings (Flara's POV)

"Listen! The one I like is you, alright?! I'm tired! I'm going to sleep!"

He walked back to his room and shut the door.

Eh?

Did I hear that correctly?

Am I half asleep or something?

I decided that it was probably a dream and went back to my room to sleep.

Morning~

Knock!~

Knock!~

Knock!~

"Flara, breakfast is ready!" Riku called from the other side.

So, it was a dream..

"Yeah, I'll be out in a bit," I sleepily called out.

I heard his footsteps fade as he walked to the kitchen.

I put on my slippers and lazily walked out.

"Good morning," Riku said.

"Morning," I replied.

I sat down and began to eat.

"You sleep well?" he asked as we ate.

"No, not really. I had this weird dream last night," I mumbled.

"What was it about?" he asked.

Me, being still half asleep, answered with a dumb answer.

"It was like something where you said you liked me, I don't know. It was a weird dream," I said and yawned.

"Ah, that wasn't a dream," he chuckled.

...

"Eh?"

"It wasn't a dream. I really like you," he said nonchalantly.

"I see. I must be still half asleep."

I pinched myself and slapped my face lightly a couple of times.

"Alright, can you repeat what you said just now?" I asked, now fully awake.

"I like you," he said.

"You're kidding.."

I stared at him in disbelief.

"No, I'm not. Well, I'm not really expecting anything from you. You don't need to return my feelings." He smiled and continued to eat.

I dropped my chopsticks and slammed my hands on the table.

"This isn't a dream? You really like me? Me?" I asked.

"Ah geez, that scared me. Yeah, I mean, what's wrong with it..?" He stared at me in confusion.

I went beet red and hid my face, so he couldn't see me.

"Flara?"

"D-Don't look at me right now.. It's embarrassing.." I mumbled.

Riku chuckled and spoke again.

"I've liked you ever since we first met."

"I won't force you to like me back. I just wanted to let you know, I've been yours for a very long time now," he said with a caring voice.

I blushed even harder and stood up.

"I-I'm going to get some fresh air!"

I ran into my room, quickly changed, and ran out the front door.

I ran to Jiho's house and rang the doorbell.

"Flara?"

Rika answered the door and looked at me.

I was sweating and breathing heavily.

"Uh, come in?"

She led me inside, and I ran to the couch and sat down.

"Hey, who was at the door?" Jiho asked from the kitchen.

"It's Flara!"

Hearing my name, Jiho ran outside to the living room.

"What's wrong?" Rika asked me.

"Tell Jiho to go away! I only want to talk to Rika!" I said.

"You heard her," Rika chuckled.

Jiho smiled before leaving to the kitchen.

"So, what's wrong?"

"R-R-Riku! He said he liked me!" I exclaimed.

Rika's face froze for a second before she started to freak out.

"Ehh?! He actually confessed?!"

"You knew?!" I asked, also freaking out.

"Of course I knew! Everyone knew besides you!"

After a while, we both calmed down.

"So, what you're saying is, that cowardly brother of mine, confessed?" she asked, still in disbelief.

"Y-Yes.."

"So, what did you answer with?"

"Uhh... I didn't answer.."

"You're telling me you left him hanging with his confession?"

"....Yes...."

Rika pulled out her phone and called someone.

"Riku, meet me at the park in 5 minutes. Hurry up," Rika said and ended the call.

"Wait, you called him?"

"Yeah, both of you guys are so oblivious about each other's feelings. It's obvious you like each other. Now go!"

Rika pushed me towards the door and smiled at me.

I smiled back and opened the door, running towards the park as fast as I could.

There, I saw Riku waiting while looking on his phone.

I ran towards him and jumped onto him, hugging him tightly.

"Eh? Flara?"

"I like you too, Riku! I always have for these past 5 years!" I shouted.

He paused for a moment.

"Eh?" he asked.

"Awww," came the crowd of people watching us.

"Let's go somewhere private," Riku chuckled.

He teleported us back to my house.

I suddenly feel embarrassed to be in a space where we're alone.

I lightly blushed.

"Hey Flara.. are you blushing?" he asked as he stared at my face.

"N-No.."

"Aww, you are! How cute!" he cooed.

Cute?

What's with this sudden attitude change?

Ahh, it's making me nervous..

"Don't just start flirting with me because I said I liked you," I mumbled.

"Alright alright. It was just fun to see your flustered face," he chuckled.

"I'm going to go for a walk. Want to come?" I asked, now calm.

"If it's with you, I'll gladly come," he said and smiled.

I looked away and began to walk towards the front door.

"Well, what are you waiting for? Let's go."
