Tamaki's POV
Dark.
Cold.
and...soft?
For some reason, that's how I can describe the surface I'm laying down on.
I tried to stand up and I can feel a bit of pain once I supported myself in order for me to stand.
Although, once I'm up and done a few stretches, the slight and temporary pain slowly disappeared.
It turns out the surface I'm laying on is a carpet and I can see why it wasn't rough while I was done.
I started to get confused and felt like a lost puppy as I explored the big room that I'm in - which I realized it was after regaining consciousness.
'What is this place?', I thought to myself and rubbed my eyes, 'How long am I out? Why am I here?'.
Questions began to absorb my head from each step I take as I ventured the room but suddenly a flash of light out of nowhere so I covered my eyes to avoid getting blind.
Then after a few seconds, the light vanished and when my eyes came to view, it looks I am now in the park where (Y/N) and I used to go for our dates.
'E-Eh? W-Why am I here? Does someone h-has a teleportation quirk and brought me here or...'
My thoughts stopped when I saw (Y/N), my loving and wonderful girlfriend, just running towards my direction-Wait, actually. She's running towards me.
I automatically smiled just seeing her bright presence so I decided to run towards her too.
I began to run and the moment we can finally meet face to face, she passed through me like I was a ghost.
"Huh?"
I blinked a few times with confusion from what just happen and when I turned around, she kept running until she stopped by just to talk to...another guy.
"Hey!", (Y/N) said and automatically hugged the guy.
The guy smiled brightly and lifted her before spinning her around cheerfully.
"Hello, my darling! Such a beautiful day, well, maybe it's because you're here, hehe", the guy said and playfully pinched one of her cheeks.
D-Darling?
My heart sank just watching this "horrific" scene and my emotions started to shift from left to right like an earthquake.
'What's happening? A-And who's that guy?! Why is he hugging her and calling her darling?! That's my Butterfly!', I thought to myself and frowned.
Since my feelings got the best of me, I decided to run towards them to interfere.
"H-Hey! W-Why are you calling her your darling?", I spoke them with a bit of confidence, "S-She's mine!".
"Aww, thank you so much!", (Y/N) said and giggled, "You're so sweet as always".
"Anything for you, (Y/N)", the guy said and cupped her face, "But nothing is sweeter than you".
"Oh stop it~! Haha!", (Y/N) said and grinned at the guy.
E-Eh? They can't hear me?
What's happening?
Why couldn't they hear me?
Just who is this guy?
Why am I here to witness this?!
I can feel the corners of my eyes filling up with tears and tried to touch my (Y/N) but I stopped when both of them kissed right in front of my eyes.
No...no!! This can't be!
My tears started to fall down on my cheeks and when I tried to touch my girlfriend once more, my hands only went through.
This only made me sob more and I ended kneeling on the ground with a heavy and broken heart.
"(Y/N)...*sniff*....(Y/N)...", I mumbled and tried to stop crying, "Y-You're the only one for me...but...why this happening?! Y-You found someone else only because...you can't see and touch me? No...noo!!".
My desperation made me touch her shoes but it went through as usual.
I sniffed and continued to cry knowing that I lost my amazing girlfriend since I practically exist in her "own world" which I was suppose to be in.

(Y/N)'s POV
"That's odd-Oh there we go! I just got the wrong measurement...again"
I sighed in relief continued baking my mom's cookie recipe which will serve as the afternoon snack for Amajiki and I.
Originally, I wanted the both of us to bake together but since he fell asleep on the couch, I guess I'll suggest that some other time.
I finished molding the last batch of the cookies and washed my hands on the sink.
Then suddenly, I heard incoming footsteps and when I turned around, it was Amajiki but...his face was mixed with emotions like he watched a J-Drama or a sad anime.
"Oh, Tama-kun!", I greeted him and grinned, "How's your sleep?".
He didn't answer my question but instead he took a few steps forward with the same experience except his face became even more blue.
"(Y-Y/N)? Y-You can see me?", Amajiki questioned and the corners of his eyes are getting watery.
"Yeah, of course, silly! Haha, I would be sad if I don't see you here", I said and laughed, "Why-"
"F-F-Finally!"
I gasped when he threw his arms around my body and hugged me tight.
"I-I-I would be sad too if I don't see you too", Amajiki said with a almost broken tone from his voice.
"T-Tamaki?", I said with confusion, "I don't understand. Is something wrong?".
My heart dropped when I heard him sniffing and when I cupped his face, he was already crying right in front of me.
"Oh my gosh, hey, hey. Shhh...", I said in a calming voice before pecking his lips gently, "Shhh....it's okay. I'm here, Tama-kun".
He continued to sob but I wiped his tears while giving him more kisses on his face to calm him down.
"Tell me what's wrong", I said and frowned, "You got me worried just now. Did something happen to you?".
He sniffed and tried to recollect himself just so he can reply to me.
"I-I-It's just...", he started but stopped when he started to cry again, "I-I had a nightmare. A-A horrible one".
I slightly gasped and listened to his explanation of his nightmare that he encountered in dream land.
I covered my mouth with a hint of shock after listening and automatically soothed his back.
"Tamaki...", I said and frowned.
I cupped his face once more and stare into his indigo eyes.
"What you saw is nothing but a hindrance. A fake image", I said and smiled, "Besides, there's no way I will leave to some other guy because you exist in my world".
"(Y/N)...", Amajiki said in awe and sniffed.
I smiled with reassurance and continued, "I love you, Tama-kun and nothing will change that. Having you in my life is the best and I can't even imagination not having you by my side, you know? Please don't even think that I'll leave you because I won't. Ever".
I can see a soft and shy smile on his face and after building up some confidence, he cupped my face as well just so he can press his lips against mine.
"I-I-I love you too, my Butterfly", Amajiki said before kissing me again and again, "A-And...thank you. I'm really glad you're my girlfriend and...I won't leave by your side too".
I kept kissing him back while smiling after hearing those words and gently stroked his hair.
My gesture made him satisfied and excited that he accidentally leaned against me - making my butt hit the kitchen counter but don't worry, it doesn't hurt.
What really surprised me was the way Amajiki kissed me just now which I don't mind.
"S-Sorry!", Amajiki apologized and began to feel flustered before hiding his face against against my hair, "Y-You're lips tasted like cookie dough so I-I couldn't help it".
