Akame ga Kill! - Killer of the East

Kill the Confession!

Lubbock POV

I feel... awesome. ever since I was brought back, I feel as if I have over flowing energy in me, like all that energy when a new born has but uses it all on screaming.

Cyrus, Tatsumi, and me are all in the infirmary, Kyler is sitting in the corner, reading a magazine. The guy only ever talks to Cyrus and Akame, I feel as if he doesn't like me and the others. Or he just thinks it better not to talk to us, not to make bonds.

Cyrus had said before that Kyler used to be a slave. Kyler supposedly had made plenty of friends in the slave pits, but they ended up dying or being sold off. Kyler's the type of person not to get close to people unless he knows they won't be taken out.

Maybe he's not talking to me because I was killed? It would make sense, I died so he thinks I might die again.

Everyone's reaction to what had happened was different. Mine didn't say much, she was more focused on Tatsumi. Akame smiled, saying she was glad that we're safe, boss said the same. Chelsea smacked Cyrus upside the head for spending his life, but she still approved of what he did.

But... Doya didn't say a word. It was like she wasn't being the same around me, and when she heard I had died, all she did was a quick surprised look, then walked away. Maybe she doesn't like me anymore? No, don't say that...

"Hey, what's with the worried face?" Cyrus says, he's sitting next to me in the infirmary.

I shrug. "Nothing. Just thinking." I said.

Cyrus inspects me, staring me down. "I can tell your lying, you know?"

I sigh. "Doya has been ignoring me lately." I said.

Cyrus rubs his chin, thinking hard on what to say to me. I have to say, he had saved my life and Doya's. Without him, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be here right now, and neither would Doya.

"Don't worry. No way she doesn't have the host for you still." Tatsumi speaks up, from across the room. He has bandages all over his body, he had spoken two of them while we escaped. I had felt like a coward, I had all that energy, but I needed to use that energy on getting Cyrus out of there.

I smile at what he said. He's right, no way am I backing down now, I finally can give my answer! Now if only I knew how to say it. Just thinking about confessing made me nervous as hell.

I slump in my bed, closing my eyes. Maybe sleep will clear my head? Someone at the door knocks, Kyler opens it to reveal Akame.

"Cyrus, Tatsumi, the boss wants to see you." She said. She gave Kyler a small smile.

Cyrus reluctantly got out of bed, going over to lend a shoulder to Tatsumi. Akame whispers something in Kyler's ear, making him grin. What was going on? They all leave the room silently.

What was that about? I'm sort of lonely now. The room is empty, except me who sits in a bed. I get out, stretching my shoulder muscles. I'm pretty sore, but I have so much energy I can't use its frustrating.

I walk over to the window and stare out. Birds chirped in the distance, migration is taking place, its almost winter. I could already feel the weather change, it was making me shiver.

I take a deep breath, breathing in the fresh, brisk air of the morning. It felt nice, it being quiet and all.

I turn around, and I freeze. By the door stands Doya, twiddling with her thumbs. She's dressed in more of warm clothes since the weather's changed up here at HQ, even the inside was a bit chilly.

"W-what's up?" I ask.

She looks ups at me, her eyes gleaming from the light of the window behind me. My heart pounded loudly. I see what the others were doing now, they were getting us alone, those sly bastards.

She crossed her arms, rubbing her shoulders. Was she cold? I walked to the hangar with my jacket and walked over to her. I spread it across her back, zipping it up. I'm so near her it's making me lose concentration.

"Thanks." She said, hiding half her face in the jacket. That face was so cute! This girl is the only one that can make me feel like this.

"Doya I-" she stopped me by putting a finger to my lips. She's blushing, wrapping her arms around my neck. Our faces are inches apart.

"What is your answer?" She asked, I could tell by her shaky voice that she's scared I'm going to say no.

I wrap my arms around her waste, surprising her, and connected my lips with hers. Hers eyes are open with shock, but I push in more, our bodies pressing up against each other. Soon, she closed her eyes, pushing back.

She started backwards, pushing me back while still kissing, onto a chair, I sat down, and she sat on me. Our lips disconnected, and we stared at each other.

"That an answer?" I ask, smiling.

She blushes, and pulls me into another kiss, our bodies shaking with delight. I've wanted to do this for so long, I think I might take a break for awhile, and spend some time with her. That's all I wished for now, just to be here, next to her.

We disconnected again, her breath getting exhausted, we're both losing breath, but it didn't seem we cared at all. We kissed again and again, each time getting more warm and comforting.

Doya stopped kissing me and hugged me. Her legs and pinning me down to the chair, she's on top of me, so I hug back. I can feel her smile, her head on my shoulder.

"I love you." She whispered into my ear.

I smile, her saying that made me feel alive, made me feel like us was at the top of the world. Like I could do anything now, anything at all. I felt like cheering out, flipping off the capital as if to say, I'm still alive, and I have a hot girlfriend! Suck it!

She got off of me, and I instantly felt the cold atmosphere again, but I stood, shaking it off. She leaned up and kissed me on the cheek, walking towards the door with a big smile.

"There's more where that came from... later though." She said with a grin. This sent warmth through me, and I blushed. She giggled as she left the infirmary.

Just as she left, Cyrus came in with a big ass grin.

"She's happy, so I guess the plan was a complete success!" He said, slapping me on the back.

"I hate you guys." I mumble.

The others came in too, all laughing at me. Jeez, these guys. I couldn't help but smile and start laughing as well. Me, Cyrus, Tatsumi, and Kyler all laughed, and later that night, the four of us toasted.

"To a greater future!" Cyrus toasts, raising his glass, we all clung our glasses together. This was my family, even Kyler who didn't talk to me much, was now talking to me. I finally think I know what Cyrus feels when he calls us his family.
