«You know... After you're done with all your business here on this island. Would you like to, maybe, join our crew...? For real this time." he smiles hopefully at you.
You look down as you can't bear looking in his piercing eyes anymore. "I don't think I will be done before the log pose resets-"
"I can wait!" he interrupts you letting go of your hand as quickly as he took it.
"I mean uhh... We- the crew. Me and the crew. We can wait for you." He manages to stutter out, also looking everywhere except at you.
"Like this place seems pretty cool. I wouldn't mind staying here for a few more days."
You softly chuckle and blink away the tears that threaten to form in your eyes. "We'll see." you say with a faint smile. "I mean, who else is supposed to save you when you're halfway beaten to death if I'm not there?" Hearing his quiet, halfhearted laugh sent a striking pain through your chest, having you swallow hard to keep a sob from escaping.
Taking a deep breath, you muster up the courage to finally look him in the eyes. Tears are rolling down your cheeks, but the only thing you can focus on is the deep black eyes you've been dreaming about for the past month staring intensely back at you.
His hand gently cups your face and you lean your head in to it to get a better feeling of the familiar tingling warmth radiating from him. He carefully wipes away the tears on your chin, never once breaking your gaze, before leaning in closer.
"I don't want to be saved by anybody else, y/n."
