It's another day in the Clover Kingdom. Up in the mountain of the royal capital, the Magic Knight Captains are all arriving at the castle for another captains meeting. This time to discuss the recent issues the kingdom has against The Spade kingdom.
You, Y/n, Captain of the Squad/Name, had just arrived. You opened the door, walking into the captains' meeting room. As you walked in, you made eye contact with someone. A special someone. Someone that was capable of making your heart skip a beat and feel butterflies in your stomach.
"Look who made it," they said with a smirk on their face, "I was just thinking about you."
You grew a smile on your face. Those words created an idea that they could have been genuinely thinking about you and it made you feel butterflies in the inner palm of your hands. Yet, you tried your best to not take it deeply. They always tended to flirt with you, so you never took them seriously. However, deep inside that was all you ever wished for. For them to really mean those things as you had fallen for them too hard.
"You're here early," You said, controlling your emotions as you walked over to them. You cracked your knuckles hoping the nervousness would go away.
"What can I say, I was just looking forward to coming today," They said still holding eye contact with you. You were trying hard not to break. The way they looked at you made you feel some sort of way. You were so obsessed with them, it was hard to stay calm.
But they weren't lying. Yami Sukehiro, the captain who you had fallen crazy in love for, liked you too. You would've never guessed. You two were oblivious love birds. You both flirted with each other all the time, never taking each other seriously, even though, deep in both hearts, you both wished your friendship was more than just that.
"And why's that?" You asked. You stood right beside of him, leaning on the chair next to his, as he was sitting down.
He turned his body to face you, looking up at you, giving you his full attention.
"Cus I wanted to see you again." He gave a playful smile as he looked at you, "Although you had me nervous for a bit, I thought you weren't going to come."
You gave him the same playful smile while crossing your arms, "I would never miss one."
"Of course you wouldn't, take a seat princess" he gave you the quirky nickname after he figured it suited you; You are known for being responsible and your always formal and to him you were gorgeous as well, just like a princess.
You couldn't stop the heat from rising to your face. You could sense your ears were turning a tint of light pink so you tried your best to cover them with your hair. What a reaction to that nickname...you knew it was cringy but couldn't help it and found it attractive.
He pulled out you seat, and you sat down gracefully. "Thank you, handsome. Such a gentleman." You smiled at him.
Yami couldn't take it anymore. He watched you as you talked so gracefully with the other captains. You the way your body moved so smoothly made something in him flutter. He wanted to tell you how he felt. How he loved your personality. How the fact that you are strong and always doing the most to protect others, turned him on. But he never found the right words or the right time to confess. So he just kept quiet and waited for the time to come.
"So how have you been, Y/n." Yami asked you, giving you his full attention. He loved making eye contact with you. He found your eyes mesmerizing and wished he could just stare into them all day. Plus, your voice, it was all he needed to get his body filled with energy.
Just like him, you turned to him while resting your face on you hand. You tried your best to hold eye contact. "It got so much better when I walked in here." Oh how you wish you could just sit and talk to each other for hours. Every time, it feels like all your worries go away after you hear his voice.
"Oh? Why's that?"
"Because, you're here. You tend to brighten my day." This made Yami's heart feel like it skipped a beat.
"Same to you," he said trying to play it cool, "Too bad we don't see each other often."
This light up an idea in your head.
"What are you doing after this?" You planned to spend the rest of the time after the meeting with him. If he was being genuine, this could be a way to get to know him better.
"Schedule's clear,"
"All right then, after this, you and me spend some time together." You couldn't believe how easily you had said that. You were feeling bold but at the same time scared. What if he didn't want to go?
"Are you instigating something?" He smirked while checking you out in a playful way. Making sure you weren't playing with him.
"Not at all, I just want to hang out with my favorite colleague, I can't just do that?"
"It's only okay if I'm you're favorite"
"Who else would it be?"

After the meeting, you both left together. You both ended up walking around the capital. It was late in the afternoon, so the usual crowd was decreasing. You both talked about recent missions and experiences you've both had lately. It was comforting to talk to another captain about your work. Sometimes it felt like it was overwhelming, so letting it go by talking about it all, felt good.
Later on, you both made your way over to a pastry stand. Your eyes glowed as you saw all the sweet desserts you wanted to try. Yami noticed this and made a mental note that you had a strong sweet tooth.
"You what something?" he asked you.
"Yeah, but I don't know what to get, it all looks good..."
He checked out everything and one small cake caught his eye. He isn't a person who's into sweet food like you, but he was willing to get you something to make you happy.
"Would you want that cake? I mean it looks good."
"Isn't it a lot? I'm not going to eat it all"
"No problem, let's share."
He ordered the cake and with the little money he had, he payed for it. You both walked around eating the cake. It made you nervous. It was starting to feel more than just a casual thing. Or maybe you're just delusional. Either way you felt those damn butterflies again and you tried everything to hide your fluster.
Yami sensed your behavior, "Are you okay? You look nervous..?"
Fuck, you thought to yourself, I gotta learn how to not show my emotions. You smiled hiding the shyness you felt, "How could I not be okay, I'm literally with you right now."
Was that too much? Ew, was that weird? oh well... FUCK IM GONNA CRY. EW. WHY WOULD I SAY THAT.
Yami laughs slightly, and throw his arm and over you're shoulders, embracing you.
"I'm telling you Y/n, we should make it official. I mean, we basically already look like we're together."
"Maybeee. If I don't find anyone else, you're my go to."
"Just know, I'll be waiting." That made you smile.
Some time passed before you both decided it was time to split and head home.
• • •
It's was night now. You had been home for a while catching up on some work. It was about time to go to bed, but something was keeping you up. Just the loud voices of you're squad members in the common room was loud enough to not let anyone relax, but that wasn't it.
All that had happened today kept replaying in you're head and you couldn't stop it. It was making you feel butterflies. You wanted to yell into you're pillow and just be able to tell him how you felt.
After today, you knew you had to tell him. You couldn't keep playing with him or with yourself. You knew you had to be honest and just spill it, but how?
Well, you can handle normal conversations with him, but the second you think about confessing, you can't even look at him without getting all flustered. It made you feel embarrassed for yourself.
But you can't anymore. You've been hiding for far too long and it's time. So you thought to yourself and made a deal. Tomorrow, you would go to his base, looking for him to tell him, and...just go on from then.
"CAPTAIN!" The loud obnoxious voice of your squad member brought you back to life.
"What is it," you said calmly as you opened your room door.
"Someone's here looking for you, Captain!" She was rushing while speaking and couldn't stand still.
You were confused, "At this hour? Who is it?"
"I think it's best if you go see yourself," She pulled your hand taking you to the front door in an infant.
You tried your best to fix yourself as you made your way to the front doors of your base. You opened outside and right there was the one you least expected to see at this moment.
You felt heat rising up to your face. No way he was here after everything you were just telling yourself less than a minute ago.
"What are you doing here?" You couldn't even bring yourself to say his name. You were praying the blush on you're face wasn't visible.
"I wanted to talk to you.."
"Uh, at this time? What's up?"
"Come out here with me, it's captain business." He said as he glared at all you're squad members who were peaking out behind,watching you.
They knew about your feeling for the Black Bull Captain and had been telling you for a while to just tell him how you feel. They assured you it was obvious he liked you back, but you never believed them. They have been wishing for you both to just get together for a while. Therefore, they can't help, but just want to watch the scene in front of them, wondering what would happen.
"Okay, what's going on?" You spoke to Yami once you two were distant from your base.
"I've come to a realization, after everything today"
"Oh my god, spill it." You we're getting anxious and desperate. Why was he here? What did he want to tell you?
"I love you, I just had to tell you.." He looked at you and tucked the hair behind you ear that had been blown onto your face by the light breeze.
You began to smile. You never expected it, well kinda, but never thought what you wished for the most to ever happen this way. You felt butterflies all over again. You figured you might as well tell him how you feel right now.
"I have to tell you something too, but i don't know if you can take it." You locked up to his eyes.
He just turned his head to the side, confused. He was scared you were going to say something he didn't want to hear.
"I love you too."
You smiled and in a second he pulled you in for a hug, his hand around your waist. You smiled and felt so happy.
"YAY! So are y'all dating now?!?" One of you're squad members popped out from thin air and the rest of your squad behind her. This startled you but Yami just kept his arms around you, not letting you go.
"I guess so, what do you say?" You answered yet asked Yami for his thoughts.
"Yes, so I'm taking her home tonight."
"HUH?" Your squad mates were shocked by his words.
"She's mine now," he picked you up throwing you over his shoulders as he walked away towards his base.
"My wish came true," you thought to yourself, laughing. What a night...
