Sakamaki Ayato x Reader [Beauty and the Beast]

Beauty and the Beast

I can feel beads of sweat sliding down from my forehead, though, winter is already here to dry it off. My heart beated one notch faster than the usual -- or better yet, like the usual. Of course, you guys will just say, "Try to relax and everything will be fine." Here's my answer: It's easier said than done.

Okay, let's not beat around a bush. I am talking about my nervousness and fear caused by this red-headed man who is now currently driving the car, known as Sakamaki Ayato. Wait -- he can drive a car? I thought that he's just a stuck-up child left in a haunted mansion to suck people's blood off? Ugh, and I am now curious, too. What the actual f***.

But, being realistic I am, I still have that certain question I've wanted to ask him. Where in the world are we going? "If you're wondering where, you'll know it soon." He replied as if reading my mind. Well, holy s***. Looks like I'll be in the coffin in no time.

"...It's somewhere you will like..." he said softly with a slight blush on his face, now changing my thoughts quickly with curiosity and confusement. 'Somewhere I will like'? Is he trying to be nice?

PSH!!

Who am I kidding? This man beside me is Ayato, for f***'s sake! An immortal blood-sucking dude whom I met through delivering a CD from a nearby store where I work at...back then. How would he know my likes and dislikes when he keeps on tormenting me with death threats and biting me wherever on my body?

But, I do admit, he is slightly changing, for the f*ck*ng first time. Instead of sucking me all over, he, sometimes, lessen his tauntings and acts all cute. Like, for example, red roses are being left in front of my room, in which I, seldomly, caught his red locks just around the corner of my eye. Yet...I still wonder why...

And just as when my mind is still debating and processing his words, the car stopped. "We're here." He said in his never-changing stern tone. I jolted a bit, but strangely relaxed as I went out of the car. I wonder why I felt like this...am I sick? Who knows?

But, once I went out of the car, I momentarily stopped. I stared at the building before me, couldn't believe the large banner hanging on each sides of it. "Beauty and the Beast...a musical play!?" I slightly exclaimed as I read it. Ayato, on the other hand, scolded me for my tone. "Shut up. You'll embarrass yourself." He told me -- basically, at my stupidity. I quickly covered my mouth, but I couldn't deny the excitement I am feeling currently. We're in a theatre, going to watch one of my favorite fairytales since childhood, and it'll be in a musical form of it! Who, in their right mind, would not get pumped-up by this!? You got issues if you are!

As we enter the said theatre, my red-headed companion grabbed my hand while I clenched his in return. I don't know why, I don't know how, but I have a theory: I'm becoming submissive subconsciously because of his doings. Yep, that's it! (Keep on denying, gurl!!)

But, my perspective changed when I saw many people crowding inside, tickets being held by their own hands. "Stay close to me. Don't get lost." He said, for the first time, concerned of my being. A brow rose at confusion, but I considered it for now and remained quiet, since the situation is kinda obvious.

Instead of lining up and waiting for our turn, he lead me to the front of the line and watched him talked to the in-charges as he showed a certain ticket, much to my surprisement. "This way, Sir, Miss..." One of the many guides of the theatre signaled us to follow him, which we did to our designated place.

Using this opportunity, I asked Ayato, "Question -- are we going to the Silver Class?" Wow. I didn't sound scared back there. That's a first! "No." He said, bluntly as he keeps his gaze forward. "So...where are we heading?" I asked again. "VVIP." He answered, then, we stopped in front of rows of couched chairs, colored with beige and slightly full of people wearing fancy clothings. I can't help myself to gawk at the place before me. No wonder we rode an elevator lately! (Too lazy to insert scene, srry!)
