Playing with fire (Jiren X Reader X Hit) DBS/DBZ

Chapter 15 ~Just Give Me A Reason~

-------

What the hell was he doing? This... this reminded you of that moment, when Jiren and you... You shiver...

"Need some help?" he whispered next to your ear. Right now you weren't ready for this. Your mind was a mess, you only needed to rest. "Hit this, this is not the best moment" You released yourself gently from his hug and began to walk towards the living room "I'm going to change my clothes, I'll be right back"

He was confused, he saw you disappearing in the corridor. Until now all his efforts were directed to keep you safe, to protect you. He knew there was something happening with you, he wanted to know what that was. Help if possible, he waited there for you patiently, you were always there for him, he wanted to be there for you too.

You were changing your clothes and putting your pajamas. You knew what was on your head now.

Jiren

That man, you couldn't stop wondering so many things about him. You were just so curious about him, about all the warnings you received about him...

Toppo's words too...

There wasn't too much you could think, because you didn't really know anything. What you knew is that there was still so much to know about him, you couldn't deny that you were too curious about it, just so curious. Not only that, you were also wondering why he always made you feel like that, so small, but some other times he made you feel so calm, with him you could feel sometimes so relaxed, you could feel his calm. It was so good... You were returning to the room.

"Cornelia" Hit said once you entered, he there with his arms crossed, you didn't move and you didn't approach "What is it Hit?" He looked at you worried "Is everything okay? " Was he seriously asking that? You didn't want to hear this, you didn't want to talk to him right now. You turned around, you were about to leave to the living room "I am okay, just a bit tired"

"Don't lie to me"

Hit's voice stopped you, you looked at him he looked bothered. You were not angry with him, just upset. He had been ignoring you in this whole month, you invited him to many places and he always said he was busy, he was always far, you only saw him at classes and when you approached to talk to him he was so cold. You should be the one asking that if he was okay and you had tried, many times but he always avoided telling you the answer, you knew he was not being honest and you respected that but it did hurt too, because it felt like if he didn't trust you. You wanted to help him, you wanted to be there for him, but it looked like he didn't want you close.

You had tried to talk with him and he always ended up ignoring you so you decided to stop asking and just leave him be... You two stood like that for some minutes, you could see that Hit was thinking what he was going to say and you just were waiting.

"I know I haven't been here for you, but I need you to trust me in this one. Everything I'm doing right now, I'm doing it for you Cornelia"

"And what are you doing?" Hit was silent, he wasn't going to tell you anything, you turned and continued walking through the corridor towards the living room.

You felt a grip in your arm "Cornelia, Stop" You seriously didn't feel ready for this situation "Hit leave me alone"

"No, I need you to hear what I have to say"

"Oh now you want to talk..."

"I am just trying to keep you safe" Was he seriously telling you that?

"Okay, you have warned me about everything, about the "things" happening here, that there is something wrong, you have warned me about Jiren and I have seen nothing. The only thing that I have seen is that you have been ignoring me and leaving me aside, and you have been trying to solve all this problem by yourself. Now you are telling me you are doing this for me? You don't have to tell me what is happening, okay? But if there is truly something happening then you should warn the Great Priest instead of trying to solve the problem by yourself"

"Cornelia, look..."

"No, Hit" you took your arm off his grip "Please, first order your thoughts and fix your problems. Then we can talk" you said as you left him there alone.

Hit

Maybe you were right. Until now, he had not been able to fix the problem or to get to the bottom of this situation. The Great Priest was the greatest authority in the 12 Universes. He didn't want to lose you, and he had to admit that it was the best choice.

Tomorrow he would do that, he was going to end this whole situation.

Hit walked to the room and he found you reading your book, you were ready to sleep. He knew that you liked to read before going to sleep. He just left you there, he didn't want to bother you. Then Jiren got out of the bathroom with his clothes to sleep, you turned to look at him and your gazes met. You looked at each other so intensely, What was happening? What did he miss? You turned your gaze towards your book and continued reading, and Jiren went to his own bed. Something happened in the moment in which your gazes met, and Hit saw this.

"Cornelia" The alien talked and you turned towards him "We have to finish the task for the Mortal Rate class. We will do it after the training"

"Hmm, you are right. Sure"

Since when were you two so confident with each other? Hit was perplex, what had happened? When did you two got so close?

What was happening?
