Beware The Begonias {A Yandere!Lev Haiba X Reader}

16. Secrets

{Warning! Mentions of Suicide}

You had the first aid kit and a wet towel within your grasp as you reached for a painkiller and water. You sat next to Yaku who was still bleeding. His shirt had been removed so it wasn't covered in blood as you carefully examined his body.

You handed him the medication and water before trying to tend to his injuries. You traced your wet towel around some of the cuts around his limbs. You quickly added a bit of peroxide to stop any potential infection. You had covered the smaller cuts with band-aids and the larger ones with bandages.

You wondered how someone could be so spiteful and hurt Yaku just because they were jealous. You apologized for hurting him earlier but he quickly forgave you. You warned him as you lifted the leg you had cut into. Carefully you began to disinfect the wound and applied the bandage. You wrapped it tightly around his thigh to prevent any further bleeding.

He gave you a soft, grateful smile as you got closer to him. You returned one genuinely happy that you were stuck with him. As you cleaned up his face you couldn't help but think about how you managed to get stuck with him.

"How'd you manage to get here?"

As soon as the question escaped your lips his eyes filled with regret and sorrow. The vase of purple hyacinth* sat on a shelf above you and Yaku. He wanted to tell you but he didn't want you to turn on him. You sat cross-legged between his own legs.

"If I tell you please don't hate me."

"Trust me I won't. Lev made both of us do some fucked up shit."

He sighed letting out everything. He told you how it had started when Lev took him from his home. He was the reason behind Tsukishima's disappearance at the hospital. Lev forced him to bring Tsukishima here and he had to do the honors of killing him. He mentioned everything Lev told him about Tsukishima asking if it was true in which you confirmed.

You held Yaku in your arms careful not to hurt his ribs or any other injury on his body. He returned the embrace and held you closer. You could nearly hear him sobbing about how sorry he was. No one in their right mind wanted to be a murderer and it must have really hurt knowing he was being used only to kill a person.

He pulled away from the hug a bit. You placed your hands along his face and brought him close to you, kissing him on the forehead. His blush was evident as he looked at you. You hated to think you had caught feelings for Yaku. Maybe you had been stuck with each other for so long that you just wanted to show him affection.

He surprised you by pulling your face close to his own and pressed his lips against your own. Before you could register what he was doing he quickly pulled away and apologized. You told him it was okay and you didn't actually mind.

It was possible that this entire time, you two had fallen for each other. You would be against the idea if Lev wasn't forcing you to be his. Technically you weren't in a committed relationship with him. You knew Yaku would be safe as long as you didn't constantly show each other affection. Was it right to love him in the situation you were both stuck in?

You helped put a shirt on him. Your heart ached as you got up and helped him back to the couch. You only wanted him to be comfortable in the state he was in. You placed a kiss on his soft lips once more as he lied down. You turned away and began to clean any of the blood where Yaku once was. You could hear the door to the basement open as you finished up. You turned to see Lev standing at the bottom of the stairs.

Your heart dropped immediately as he signaled for you to follow him. You subconsciously took the bloody towel with you and went with Lev up the stairs. He locked the door back before taking the towel from your hands and throwing it away. He dragged you into his room. He sat on his bed and pulled you onto his lap.
