Empty Doll (Diabolik Lovers FanFiction)

32nd Emotion

Kanato was carrying me in his arms as he made his way up the stairs. I held his dress shirt tighter, feeling like all the courage in my body was drained for the day. He looked at me and gave me a smile. Kanato chuckled and kissed my forehead.

When we reached my room, he opened it and gently put me down on my bed.

“I’ll stay with you…” he whispered as he lay down beside me. He pulled me in his arms, my forehead resting against his chest. “I’ll protect you, Yokko-chan…”

I nodded, smiling a little. Him hugging me like this is making me feel safe.

I began to miss my Mum, Freeia.

“Kanato-kun, let’s sing a song…” I suggested, looking up at him.

“What song?”

“Do you know ‘The Only Exception’ by Paramore?” I asked him.

He furrowed his brows.

I sighed.

“When I was younger I saw my daddy cry

And curse at the wind...

He broke his own heart and I watched

As he tried to... reassemble it...” I sang.

"And my momma swore

That she would never let herself forget...

And that was the day that I promised

I'd never sing of love if it does not exist..." I continued.

He listened intently, looking at my eyes.

 Then I held his hand and pressed our entwined hands against my lips.

“But darling…

You…

Are…

The only exception…

You… Are… The only exception…

You… Are… The only exception…

You Are… The Only Exception…” I sang to him those lines.

His eyes widened as he heard those words, then his eyes softened and smiled as well.

But while he kissed my forehead, I thought about Azusa and Yuma.

Why did they randomly appear in my head…?

I closed my eyes, my heart feeling like it has a huge hole right now.

I was walking around the mansion the next morning, trying to find Belle who had ran off…

Apparently, she was chasing a butterfly and pissed Reiji off again.

“Seriously, that girl…” I murmured, shaking my head. “Where could she be?”
