❛ LANGRIS VAUDE ❜ You could be a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare.
Y/N'S POINT OF VIEW
Looking at the full-length mirror, I bit my lip. I'm so nervous. This is the first time someone asked me out and that someone is Langris. I know that there's nothing wrong with my Golden Dawn uniform but I'm still checking every thread of it. Deeply sighing, I looked at my watch. It's already five and he is probably waiting outside my room.
Okay, Y/N. Calm down. Don't mess this up.
"Hi, "was all I can say when I opened my door and see Langris' figure waiting for me outside with his hands both in his pockets.
Christ, he's so handsome.
He smiled genuinely, catching my hand. It was warm. "You look beautiful as ever."
"T-Thank you."
My heart is hammering so hard inside my chest. It feels like any second right now, it'll explode. Looking at the sky, it's a little bit cloudy. It might rain later. I don't have an umbrella with me, just pocket money and my grimoire. Surprisingly, this boy is very eager to start any topic that came to his mind that's why I got no problem answering his questions. Me, in return, opens issues too to know him better.
"I heard you're close with my brother."
"Oh, Finral?" I smiled. "Yup. Before transferring here on Golden Dawn, he's one of my comrades on Black Bulls."
"I see."
"Are you, by any means, jealous?"
I asked out of nowhere, joking. It wasn't supposed to be serious yet he blushed by it. Jeez, he's still cute. I don't see much resemblance between the two brothers yet I can say they are both handsome but Langris really caught my attention. He's arrogant, that's given, but when he's with me, he acts tamed and all. He even pulls pranks. All in all, for me, he's kind. He deserves all the care and love in the world too.
"H-ha?!"
"Kidding!"
Flashing a cheeky smile, I found ourselves standing before a fancy restaurant. He took the lead before acting like a gentleman, pulling out a chair for me, before he sits on his own. Out of nowhere, I smiled at his actions.
He might not say it directly but I can feel it. His eyes are shimmering when he's looking at me. His hands are shaking while he's holding mine earlier. I can feel that he's nervous too but I'm still thankful he asked me out.
I'm hoping, from the bottom of my heart, that I can confess my true feelings for him before the night ends.

"Thank you for today."
I smiled as I looked at the overall view of the Clover Kingdom because right now, we're here on a mountain, not far from our place. I can say everything is breathtaking, especially that I haven't been here before. Langris and I can hear thunders and the sky's starting to flash lightning that's why it's signaling for us to go home.
It was about to rain and he could be the perfect lullaby for it.
"And the tattoo, it's cute."
Yup, we tattooed each other's names on our wrist, yet, just small so William won't scold us if he ever sees it.
Before I could speak another word, I feel Langris' hand on my neck before his lips brushed into mine. I stopped breathing for a while, my heart stopped beating and my mind went blank. As we parted for air, he was smiling triumphantly. I saw his mouth open and mutter a word but I can't hear any sound. I can't even move a muscle. I was just there, staring blankly at his face as I watched his lips move, saying the words I wanted to hear for so long.
I didn't even get the chance to confess my true feelings. Everything seemed to slow down until a loud thunder came—
—causing me to jolt back on my bed. I blinked my eyes until I realized I'm in my room and still in my pajamas. I slapped myself thrice just to be sure I am awake. It was raining very hard outside as a storm came to the kingdom. Clutching my chest, I feel pain on it, remembering every scene that happened. Tears fell down my eyes, my mind waking up to reality.
Why? Why can't it be real? The tattoo is not on my wrist, his name is not written on me.
It's just three in the morning and I was lost in my fairy tale. I thought Langris was holding my hand, pretending to be my guide but in the end, it was just a result of my own fantasy. In reality, he doesn't even give a fuck about me. He won't care if I'm existing or not. I'm just a comrade for him, a co-member, a friend.
That was a beautiful nightmare, I might say.
From the view from my terrace, I can see the rain pouring hard before me. At the same time, my tears too were falling from my eyes.
His love is too good to be true.
I laughed sarcastically. "So, it was just a dream, huh?"
