That One Encounter (Hajime x reader)

I'm with you.

A knife is up to my neck, he's leaning against me.
"I want to kill you. Why can't I?"
I don't move I feel helpless.
"Never forgot I existed- I'll never stop trying to kill you." The knife starts touching my neck.

I wake up.
I'm ice cold.
Sweat drips down my face.
"Just a nightmare." I say, I get up to clean up a bit.
It's still the middle of night, I quietly clean up myself.
Is Hajime ok?
I walk out quietly to check.
Hajime, lying on the couch dead asleep.
He looks so calm and peaceful.
His face is relax, he's just asleep.
He's so cute!!
I fan-girl to myself a bit-
I walk back get my phone and took a few pictures.
I walk back to my room in a happier mood now and fall asleep again.

It's morning now the sun wakes me up,
I get up and clean up myself a bit.
I walk out of my room quietly.
Hajime is still asleep.
I sit on the couch next to him and hang out on my phone, I see a text from Chiaki.
How's it going with him? I hope your having fun :)
She's so sweet, I respond to her and than Hajime wakes up.
He blinks his eyes a bit and than turns and looks at me,
"Morning y/n" he says and smiles.
"I hope you slept you well." I say, though clearly from when I suddenly woke up last night I could tell.
"I slept good. Thank you." He says.

I guess now it's the end of this date. Hajime and I give our goodbyes, he hugs me tight.
He waved goodbye and walks out, I close the door behind him.

:let's skip time a bit :

I'm walking back home from a grocery store, I haven't seen Hajime in a few days since our first proper date.
The suns out, everything seems so bright and fresh.
There's a cute little street cat, I begin to play with it for a bit.
I hear two people walking,

"We need him for hope to win! Let him come out for a bit!" I hear someone beg, I look up.
It's Hajime and a white haired guy next to him.
Hajime makes eyes contact with me,
"Oh- hey y/n" he says and smiles,
"Well, well, who's this?" The white hair guy asks scanning me.
"Hey Hajime. I'm y/n, y/n y/l" I say I politely smile.
He nods and than smiles,
"Well I'm Nagito Komaeda, nice to meet you." He says smiling too,
He seems very sweet, Hajime must know good people
Hajime wraps him arm around me,
"She's my girlfriend." He says in a very harsh tone,
"Woah Hajime! Chill! I won't take her away from you! Promise!!" Nagito says panicking,
By now the cat I was playing with has escape this bull crap-
"I don't want you ever getting her involved. You hear me? I know you have your weird hope ideas but don't get her involved." Hajime says his grip get stronger.
"I see.... Don't worry Hajime! I won't do a thing! I wouldn't do anything to make you mad... Promise!" He says awkwardly laughing.
Hajime sighs, he grabs my groceries.
"We're going to my house, y/n." He says without giving me a choice in the matter.
It's okay though.
"Bye Nagito." Hajime says and he holds my hands and walks away with me.
"Goodbye Hajime! Goodbye y/n! I'll see you later!" He says smiling and waving happily,
What's going on?
Hajime keeps holding my hand, he doesn't say a word.
Ok a lot of random stuff just happened.. I'm still trying to process everything...
"Hey Hajime, what's going on?" I ask, I'm not sure if he's in the mood to talk.
He stops walking and turns around, his facial expression very plain but almost angry at the same time.
"I'm sorry y/n I didn't mean to drag you into this....." he says his expression now turns very sad.
"What's going on? Who is Nagito?" I ask, I have so many questions I hope I don't annoy him.
"I'll tell you everything once we get to my place." He says, hand in hand.
We finally make it to his place, the outside is very cute,
"This is my place. Please feel at home." He says smiling gently, I blush.
He opens the door and his house is very plain, not really anything to make his house have any personal flair, very basic furniture like the default furniture you get in a game, and its very clean.
"Your house is so clean, I like it" I say smiling, he gets flustered but blushes too.
"Thanks." He puts my groceries by the door.
"Please sit here, I'll tell you everything. I shouldn't hide anything from you." He says, his tone is very serious.
I sit on his one couch, he sits right to me.
I lean on him. His hands are shaking, I hold his hands, their ice cold and I look at him. Our eyes meet, "Hajime don't worry, I'll accept anything you tell me." I say smiling, he looks at me his eyes widen and then he looks away,
"I'm sorry. I keep hiding things from you. I must make you worried and confused so much by now." He says, I don't say anything but I rub his hands.
He takes a breath,
"Nagito is a person I ran into a while back, he's obsessed with hope, he think hope will save us all. He wants Izuru to come out to help hope win or whatever" Hajime says,
"I- wow- is he okay?" I ask,
"I don't know.. I just don't want him to get you involved, because he may be willing to hurt you to get to Izuru." Hajime says,
Everyone really be after me huh?
"I'll try my hardest to keep you safe." He says.
I rub his hand, as he rest his chin on my head.
We sit there quietly for a bit more... I start getting tired... my mind is going blank.
I fall asleep.

Hajime POV:
"Y/n?" I don't get a response, I look over and notice she fell asleep.... on me...
I feel my face get extremely warm,
I lightly lay her on my lap.
I brush her hair out of her face, she sleeps peacefully.
"I'm sorry all I do is probably terrify you, and yet you still smile and are happy to see me." I say aloud, I play with her hair.
"You know, you never fail me with that soft gentle smile, you make me feel at peace. I want to let you know that..." I say.
I only have the confidence to say this cause I know for a fact she's sound asleep.
"I don't know how to thank you for your kindness, just please accept my love." I say...
I'm so cliche- I regret saying that last line...

I felt her grab my hand,
"Of course I will Hajime. I love you." She says smiling.
I felt tears coming down my face, than her warm hands on my face.
"Don't cry Hajime. You mean so much to me, I want to support you and be with you." She says, I felt more tears go down my face.
She gets up from my lap and hugs me,
"I'll be here with you. No matter what okay?" She says calmly.
"Thank you y/n, thank you" I cry.
