Dio x Reader "Am I in Love?"

Chapter 5: Is He Right?

It's been a couple of months since I've last met Dio. I don't acknowledge him when hanging out with Jonathan. I'm not giving him the satisfaction that he's looking for, even though sometimes I do want to peak over but I could control myself. I've been starting to notice that Johnathan's and I hang out time has been starting to become shorter and shorter. I knew why, he met this adorable girl named Erina. I'm not jealous or anything like that, I only saw him as a friend and nothing else. It does hurt on the inside knowing that I'm probably going to lose my only friend but that's just life and shit happens.

~Time Skip~

It's now to a point where I don't see Jonathan anymore. He's spending all his time now with Erina, but hey I still get some tasty lunch when I make my delivery. I was sitting in the dining room eating my lunch when I heard footsteps. I look up and see Dio, oh great what does he want. He takes a seat right next to me, I can feel his eyes nearly looking through my soul but I'm just going to try and ignore him and maybe he'll just leave.

" You know (y/n), it must really hurt" he says in that smooth, silky voice. This really caught my attention and I look up at him with an eyebrow raised. "What do you mean by that?" I said in a monotone voice. "It must hurt knowing that your only friend Jonathan no longer wants anything to do with you anymore, now that he spends every second with her... it must really hurt to know that your only friend doesn't care about you anymore" he said.

For a second it almost felt like he was telling the truth and that's how it is now. No- he's just trying to get into my head, he's lying. "That's a load of shit Dio, even if we may not see each other as much anymore... doesn't exactly mean he doesn't care about me" I said with slight annoyance in my voice.

"(Y/n), I know you don't want to admit it, but you know that I'm right. When was the last time you've actually seen him or talk to him? For the past month all you do is deliver food, eat lunch and leave. You know that I'm right about Jonathan not caring about you anymore. You know... before Erina, he would talk about you all the time and all the cool adventures and what not you two have had. Well now all he does is talk about Erina, as if you've never existed in his life", he said looking me straight in the eyes, never losing contact.

I looked down and grabbed my right arm, rubbing it up and down pondering on what he said. It just, felt like he was telling me how it really is, it pained me so much to think that it might be true, of course I won't cry over it. I see it as it's life just get over it, even if it does still hurt deep down. I felt a hand lightly lift my chin up, met with a pair of red eyes again. "(Y/n), I know what it's like to have no one, to have to fend for yourself and not count on anyone. That was my life before the Joestar's took me in. I'd love to become your new friend, I would never just dump you off like Jonathan did" he said in a serious tone.

I wanted to believe him, it felt like he meant every word, is this possibility going to turn into some sick and twisted plan rather than an actual friendship? I honestly don't have any friends, but it wouldn't hurt to make a new one. I'm a strong-minded girl, if he tried anything I won't be fooled. "I- I guess I'll allow you to be my friend but don't try any funny business with me, I'll snap your damn neck if I have to" I said in a serious tone. "Perfect~"
