AT THE WRONG TIME || Takashi Mitsuya fic

seventeen

Happy first of December! That's twelve out of twelve in year 2021, I'm so proud of you!

Y/N's POV

"Mikey," I called as I opened the door, "I thought Draken will take Mika home?"

Mika was already asleep on his arm, so I carefully took her into mine. He just smiled, but his smile doesn't light up like before anymore, "I guess I just wanted to spend more time with her. Mitsuya's here now, she already has her father back so she won't need me anymore, right?"

My heart broke, why is this such a painful scene to watch?

He turned his back and was about to walk away but he looked at me again, "hey, Y/N-chin, if I confessed first, would we have been the couple instead?"

I don't know either, the feelings I felt for him were shallow and I knew that when I saw Takashi again because I never fell for Mikey twice but

I admit, I fell for him all over again.

"Maybe, who knows?" I chuckled and he smiled

"If he didn't come back, would I have stood a chance?"

I looked down, I don't want to see his eyes as I answer that question

"No.." I answered with a low voice but I know he heard that because he chuckled

"I see, at least I won't blame him for my wasted second chance then," he said and I looked at him he was smiling at me still, "I can't really stay away for so long since Mika still looks for me but Y/N-chin, I'm sorry if I won't come over as often as before, hmm? I also.. want to move on."

My heart really broke into pieces but I can't give him false hopes knowing I'm happier with Takashi than him. I can't, that's too cruel.

"I'm sorry, Mikey," I told him

"It's fine, we can't really choose who to love anyway," he answered, "I guess I just really blew my chance before."

He said goodnight and left, and I stayed up crying. It hurts somehow having to let him go like that but I know he'll find someone better. Someone made just for him.

And since then, we would rarely see each other. No more petty arguments between him and Takashi in the morning or singing to disney songs with Mika.

"This is tiring," I said while sitting on the lab room's floor. The others are laying down on the floor now, feeling so tired already.

It's already our second week in med school, and every day is another reason for me to give up on my dreams. But I just told myself to hang on for a little while, because I dreamed of this before and I'm so close to achieving it now.
