(Highscool AU) (Book TWO)
(Y/N) Kanroji left everything from her homeland to live in with her older sister, Mitsuri Kanroji. She left her horrid past behind, to start anew. To begin again.
Well... That was the plan, anyways. Her supposed plan was un...
Kyojuro cocked his head to the side, his eyes twinkling with amusement. "Who's the boyfriend?"
A small giggle escaped (Y/N)'s lips, her cheeks tinged with a faint blush. Her gaze softened as she looked into Kyojuro's eyes.
"You, Silly Billy." she replied, her voice filled with affection. "You're my boyfriend."
Kyojuro's heart raced as (Y/N)'s words settled in, her declaration of their relationship catching him off guard.
He blushed, flustered by the sudden turn of events, and quickly attempted to correct her misconception.
"Wait, (Y/N), I'm not your boyfriend," he protested gently, his voice soft yet earnest.
'Not yet, anyways.'
(Y/N) let out a soft whine, her expression playful and endearing even in her slightly intoxicated state.
"But you don't have a choice," she insisted with a teasing pout. "We're together now."
Amusement danced in Kyojuro's eyes as he watched her, charmed by her drunken persistence.
He crouched down once more, positioning himself so he could meet her gaze on an equal level.
"I can't be your boyfriend right now," he said softly, his tone carrying a hint of regret. "But I can make you a promise."
(Y/N) blinked up at him, her curiosity evident in her gaze. "A promise?" she echoed, her voice soft and slightly slurred.
Kyojuro's smile was tender as he spoke, his words carrying a sincere weight. "I promise that I'll always be here for you," he said, his eyes holding hers with a sense of unwavering determination. "I'll look out for you, support you, and care for you as much as I can."
"That sucks." Drunken (Y/N) deadpanned, leaving no room for any more arguments. "Be my boyfriend noww-"
Kyojuro chuckled at (Y/N)'s candid response, her playful and straightforward nature shining through even in her drunken state.
He shook his head with a soft smile and replied, "You're quite persistent when you're drunk."
(Y/N) pouted, her expression a mix of both stubbornness and adorable frustration. "Well, if you were my boyfriend, you wouldn't have to make promises like that," she retorted, her words punctuated with a slight hiccup.
Kyojuro's warm smile remained as he caught (Y/N)'s attention with his promise.
He extended his pinkie finger, a gesture that held a sense of childlike sincerity and earnestness.
(Y/N) watched as he made his pinkie promise, her curiosity piqued by his words.
"What if promise something else," he said softly, his voice carrying a hint of determination. "I promise that I'll never stop trying to make you mine."
As he spoke, his pinkie finger linked with (Y/N)'s, creating a tangible connection between them.
His words held a promise of persistence and dedication, a commitment to pursuing something deeper between them.
He was willing to put in the effort, to navigate the obstacles, and to patiently wait until (Y/N) was ready.
"I'll be as persistent as you, (Y/N)," he continued, his gaze locked onto hers. "Even without the help of alcohol. And when you're ready, one day, I'll ask you to be my girlfriend."
Seeing (Y/N)'s joyful and excited reaction brought a warm smile to Kyojuro's face.
He was relieved to see that his promise had made her happy, and her genuine enthusiasm was contagious.
As she squealed and kicked her feet in glee, Kyojuro chuckled softly, his own happiness evident in his eyes.
'Adorable.'
He watched as she held out her pinkie finger, her gesture mirroring his own. Their pinkie fingers intertwined once again, sealing their promise with a simple but meaningful physical connection.
(Y/N) declared her promise, her words carrying the weight of her intentions.
"I promise... I'll wait for you," she said with determination, her drunken state not diminishing the sincerity in her voice.
Kyojuro's heart swelled with a mix of emotions-joy, gratitude, and a deep sense of connection.
He gently squeezed her pinkie finger with his own, their hands held together in a silent pledge.
The promise they had made was a step towards something more, a promise that held the potential for a future filled with shared moments and mutual understanding.
"Thank you, (Y/N)," Kyojuro said softly, his gaze locked onto hers. "I promise I won't let you down."
(Y/N) responded with a grumble, her words holding a humorous threat. "You better not, or I'll have my Nee-San kick your ass, and then I'll kick your ass too."
"I won't break my promise." Kyojuro's laughter filled the space as he leaned down, planting a tender kiss on (Y/N)'s forehead.
His affectionate gesture was met with a content sigh from (Y/N), her gaze still fixated on him. "Good good."
"Ready to sleep now?" he asked, his voice tender as he looked down at her. A yawn escaped (Y/N)'s lips, confirming her readiness, and she replied with a sleepy "Yepps."
"Good girl," he praised gently, his words laced with warmth.
He began to stand up, ready to leave the room, but he felt a gentle tug on his shirt. He turned his attention back to (Y/N), curiosity in his eyes. "What is it?" he asked softly.
Kyojuro's surprise was evident in his wide-eyed expression as (Y/N) made her request.
Her words had caught him off guard, leaving him momentarily stunned. He blinked a few times, processing what she had just asked.
"What do you want, (Y/N)?"
"Sleep with me."
