Hi pooks do could you do romantic headcanons for the flags (anyone you'd like) with a reader that goes absolutely quiet after an argument, but it's not silent treatment, it's just that they've grown so used to it.(totally didn't base it on me, totally not.)
But only if you're comfortable with it of course!
Have a great day or night and take care.

Iceman
The terrifying thing about your arguments is that Iceman is not very talkative
Or expressive for that matter
So when you’re afraid of his reaction, and he doesn’t have any signs of obvious anger or sadness…
Well, it’s scary!
He’s a big guy
So the argument is going… alright
Bad of course, you’re fighting, but it’s not that bad
Until he makes this face
It’s a sorta of distance, anger that he never ever shows
And god, does it set your brain off
Although, only you know that
Because to everyone else, your face is blank and you’re completely silent
He is confused
I mean, that’s his job?!
To be rather stoic, not you!
His lover, he knows you
And he knows this isn’t normal for everyday behavior
The argument ends there
He’s too confused to speak
So… he figures you’re upset
And when he does, he pauses
Then, he hugs you
Pushing back his coat to have your arms wrap his waist
Covering you from the world
He doesn’t know what to do for you other than a hug
A kiss would be too much? And his voice is calming, however he fears that he’ll stumble his words and make things worse
So, a hug
He’ll be okay with silence, as long as you’re okay by the end of it
Pianoman
He’s a good arguer… unfortunately
His authority shows when he fights and it is QUICK to scare
He doesn’t intend this, but work has changed him
He is so used to dealing with men who’s entire job is full of gun shots and shouts being barked orders at
So he forgets that you’re his sweet lover, and can’t handle the very intense energy
If anything confuses him, it’s silence
I mean, the flags are LOUD
Albatross always joking with Doc, Chuuya telling them off. Lippmann practicing lines with Iceman on book
But his lover shouldn’t be silent
He sorta… freezes?
Finally realizes that you haven’t put a word in for the last 5 minutes
It’s just been… nothing
A blank stare, crossed arms, and a closed mouth
He felt bad with a deep feeling inside his chest
He gave you time, thinking you’d need it
He walked out awkwardly
And left you in the apartment
He goes for a drive, and comes back
When you’re still quiet, he decides action is needed
A kiss on your hand and up for arm
Ending on your lips followed by an “I’m sorry”
He pets your cheek, pulling you against him
It’ll be okay
He is VERY happy when you’re back to speaking
But for now… he can live with the silence you desire
Doc
He isn’t the argument type
But he works too hard!!
And you’re so concerned for him
I mean, he is sick himself so he shouldn’t be around others with a weakened immune system
He is stubborn and defensive, much to your dismay
And he isn’t easy to convince
Your concern over takes you
What once caused words to spill from your mouth at him, now made you silent
He thought you needed a second to think
Process your next sentence
But that next sentence never came
He stares at you, but stays silent too
Maybe this is the vibe now?
Forgive him, he’s more physical and not mental
It finally comes to him that you’re not going to talk
He stares at you for a while
Then he turns to his pocket
He gets… a lollipop?
He always gives his patients lollipops when they’re sad, you know this
So you take it with a weary hand
But… it’s so sweet!
By the time you finish it, you are feeling better
You may not speak for the rest of the night
But! You will feel better emotionally
Chuuya
Fights… well they happen
Serious fights are normal, especially for the double whammy of you two being teens and a couple
He tries his absolute best to not yell
But, his resolve is only so strong
He’s naturally loud
His words aren’t that mean, as he saves those for people he thinks deserve them
And you? He would never love a bad person
That doesn’t mean it isn’t hurtful
So… when his voice raises the way it does when he’s talking to an enemy, you freeze
No longer responding
He isn’t how he is with Dazai, not at all
He notices your change the SECOND you stopped
His heart stopped, thinking you’re scared of him!
That’s one of his biggest fears
He needs to you feel safe with him because you are safe
It doesn’t occur to him it’s the argument making you upset, and not him scaring you
You sad eyes look into him
Body vulnerable and shying away
“Hey… I didn’t mean it.”
He isn’t great with apologies, so this is a bit of a shot in the dark for him
And he isn’t sure why you’re quiet, but he hates it
Unless you ask, he won’t leave you alone for a SECOND
“I’m sorry.”
He sorta rambles out a bunch of words
But one string of them sticks out, the last one he says
“I love you.”
That was the first time he said that
He was so scared you feared him, he wanted to confess truth
And that was enough to let you speak again
Albatross
Alby isn’t exactly… emotionally mature
So when your arguments get truly serious instead of mock and banter, it’s a lot
His colder tone, sharp eyes
He obviously forgets how scary he is
There is a certain growl in the bass of his voice
So, for you it’s no surprise that you can no longer say anything
Words don’t even form
And he melts back into his old self
“Baby?”
He walks over to you… and pokes your cheek
Something that always makes you giggle
But no, not even a smile
Internally, he’s freaking out
So, he walks to the kitchen
He gets little note pads and a pen
He asks you to write down anything
How are you feeling?
Is your throat suddenly hurt?
Can you talk, but don’t wanna?
After each, he gives you a cheek kiss
As a sort of reward for communicating
Finally, he picks you up and whisks you to bed
You’ll be okay in the morning, especially with his cuddling
Lippmann
Lippmann is not the type to get into arguments
He is silver tongued and he knows it
It’s quite literally his job at the port mafia
So when you do fight, he’s a bit unhinged
Since the topic has to be very specific or important
If he knows one thing, it’s how to interpret words
Loads of different types of speaking, tone, speed
He’s a master of speech
So silence?
He is confused
How is he supposed to work with this?
And that makes him realize, “I shouldn’t think of my love as another port mafia case. I need to be genuine”
And his real talent comes out
He gives you time
Before simply pulling you with him to the couch
He puts on a movie, and turns the cold silence to something comfortable and warm
What a guy

Finding an boy in your room.
Ft : the flags (3/5) (pianoman, iceman, doc)
Tw this is very very short and it almost four am to 5am so this isn't edited and for doc part reader got wine
This is my first time writing here and for the flags😿
You are their child or child figure
Pianoman
♡ It was an lovely day, pianoman had the day off, so he was doing errands around Yokohama
♡ Perfect time to sneak In someone.
♡ So after sometime, you called him to come over.
♡ After the call he went straight to your house and y'all started to watch an long movie in your room
♡ After sometime, y'all got bored and started to get really touchy
♡ So touchy that you didn't hear the front door open or your room one.
♡ Mid way of you making out with an unknown boy.
♡ "(reader), it seems I misplaced my wallet, have you see-"
♡ Pianoman stood in stock but regain his composure.
♡ " (Reader)...Who is this (?)
♡ You saw the look in his eye and you knew you were gonna be grounded for an while.
Iceman
♡ As an hitman, he never really knew when he was going to be home
♡ One night he was taking extra long so you texted him
♡ "how long till your back?"
♡ "don't know"
♡ So obviously you took this as an chance to invite an boy over.
♡ You knew iceman wasn't going to be here till the late morning so why not?
♡...And you were right!
♡ y'all did whatever people do when the opposite genders comes to your house and successfully did whatever it was
♡ But the thing is that he (the boy) never left..
♡ So as y'all laid in bed cuddling (at 6am)
♡you saw your doorknob turning..
♡ Fuck.
♡ Every single time iceman works late he comes into your room to make sure your asleep and safe.
♡ How could you forget??
♡ Iceman stood there with his right arm on your doorknob and left hand holding an cigarette
♡ He stood there in an stoic face and takes an deep breath. He points to the boy and said:
♡"...You. Out now."
♡ The boy could already smell the blood on iceman and quickly went out your door
♡ "yes sir"
♡ The boy ran out of your house and iceman turned to look at him an then back at you.
♡ He inhaled his cigarette.
♡ "you're grounded."
Doc
♡ As an surgeon he worked many hours for the pm
♡ So it wasn't unusual for doc to come home late
♡ So naturally you invited an boy over
♡You guys were at first just hanging out
♡ But then it started to get really boring
♡ And you guys were already not there because of the wine you guys already drank
♡ So naturally y'all start to slur your words and well now y'all are mouth to mouth making out
♡ But the thing was that you were on couch.
♡ So when doc walked in, you aren't really surprised ( or you were too out if it from the wine)
♡ "... Fufufu what's this?"
♡you looked up to see doc smirking..
♡ fuck.
♡ The boy quickly leaves the house and doc didn't care to look
♡ he gives you the talk an few minutes after the boy leaves

“May I have this dance?”
Chuuya x reader
(ft. The Flags)
Warnings - none
Type - Fluff
Word Count - 798
Tumblr media
A song for you by Donny Hathaway. The slow jazz filled every inch of the old world pool hall, seducing the ears of every resident that found themselves inside. There were only seven, but that's how it always was. Every other night, when no missions were to be had. Albatross, drinking some fruit-based cocktail while teasing Chuuya. The latter gritting his teeth at his friend, although any passersby would think he hates him. Iceman enjoyed the music, as well as Doc as he both sipped on some heavy whisky. Pianoman and Lippmann were in a very intense game of pool, tied the entire run. Then, you. Changing the record to some more up beat jazz.
“We should dance! Doesn’t that sound fun?” You had always been rather energetic with a bit of alcohol in your system. It’s not like this place had a limit or carded anyone.
Lippmann looked up at you, a bit surprised. “Dance? Since when did you dance?”
“Since forever! Come on~ I love dancing, it’s only natural.” She explained.
On the other end of the hall Albatross teased Chuuya’s hair, before whispering into his ear.
“Go dance with her, you know you wanna~”
You didn’t realize this teasing, thinking Chuuya’s red cheeks were only from some overly expensive wine. Little did you know he hadn’t had a sip all night.
“No way! Anyways she’s talking to Lippmann, I don’t wanna bother her.” Chuuya said, pushing away Albatross. Not enough to hurt him of course.
Lippmann was having the same idea, no way he’d pass the opportunity up to play matchmaker.
“Very well then. Hmm, I’m not sure… you shouldn’t dance with Doc, wouldn’t wanna knock over his IV.”
Pianoman joined in, putting his pool stick down.
“And not Iceman, he’s a whole lot bigger than you with all that muscle.”
Pianoman said, easily concealing his playfulness.
Doc leaned into the trio of you, Lippmann, and Pianoman.
“And not Albatross, I’d bet he has two left feet.”
You.. you were not understanding what this was leading to. But still giggled at Doc’s little joke. Luckily Albatross couldn’t hear.
“Well, then who? You, Lippmann?”
Did she have to be so dense?
“No! I mean uh- I’m not very good at dancing, and neither is Pianoman!” Lippmann tried to turn it on Chuuya.
“But Pianoman, I’ve seen you dance on a mission before?” She spoke, curious as to why it was said he couldn’t dance. He shook his head, lying for a good cause.
Albatross walked over before she could ask any more questions, Chuuya in tow.
“You know, Chuuya could dance with you! Isn’t that right?”
She perked up, happy someone would dance with her. She smiled, and he melted. How could he ever say no to her?
“Sure… will you dance with me?”
He asked, gentlemanly as he always was with her.
Iceman, quiet as he always was, was still listening. He picked a record, it was from New Orleans. Jazzy and fast pace, probably from the 1930’s. He knew she loved this style. Swing dancing… Chuuya was in for an absolute treat, as well as the rest of the flags. Since they knew damn well he’d be faking it till he made it.
“Of course I’ll dance with you! Let’s go!”
She took his gloved hand in hers. It was surprisingly soft leather, though the real hand would be much nicer to hold and feel. Even if neither would admit it.
“You ready, Chuu?” God, his heart would give out if she called him that nickname ever again. But, he wouldn’t complain. What a lovely way to die that would be. Damn it, he got distracted.
“Chuuya? Ready?”
She was so patient.
“Yeah, I’m ready. Umm.. what do I do?”
She laughed, not in a mean way. It was cute, that’s what he thought anyway.
“Sorry sorry.. we can start with the basics. Okay, hands in mine.”
He took her hands. Unbeknownst to her, the flags gave him grins and thumbs up. “Your nails… They are painted red. That’s my favorite color, they’re lovely.”
“It is? Well isn’t that perfect, and thank you.”
She started to sway to the music. He followed suit, thanking his past self for learning how to keep rhythm.
“Can I spin you?”
She agreed, spinning while holding his hand. She was smiling, eyes beaming while looking into his. Was she?… she had her doubts before, but she definitely loved him.
Iceman, with his knowledge of records, changed the music to play a slower song. Meaning Chuuya could hold her close. He did not need five wingmen.
He pulled her closer by the waist.
“The music slowed down, so we should too.”
“Since when did you know about dance?~”
He made a faux annoyed expression.
“Shut up.”
“Make me.”
Part two?

𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓕𝓵𝓪𝓰𝓼 𝔁 𝓢𝓲𝓷𝓰𝓵𝓮 𝓟𝓪𝓻𝓮𝓷𝓽 𝓡𝓮𝓪𝓭𝓮𝓻
Warnings- parent struggles
Type - headcanons
Of course I added Chuuya.
Tumblr media
Albatross -
Did someone say the fun dad?
He admires how responsible you are
Quite literally watches in awe at anything you do
Making a snack? Wow. Hushing your kid from crying? He’s shocked by your skill
Your kid likes cars? He will have an entire lot for them.
Trains? Look, now the port mafia has a and it’s trained named after your kid
Almost like a brother, sorry
He’s immature and has never been around kids
So so gentle however
He’s not dumb, just eccentric after all
You’ll definitely walk in on him covered in paint by your kid, laughing and letting it happen
Tea parties? Tea parties.
7/10, congrats, you have a second kid
Pianoman -
Thinks the absolute highest of you
Will never pry on what happened to the biological parent
But if they hurt you? He’s pulling piano strings
The kid is babied, no matter the age
He’s a leader, and a protecter
The port mafia doesn’t even know you have one
He likes a quiet personal life
No nanny’s, he will clear his schedule if needed
It’s his kid now, and he’s ready to try his best
Smart man, makes sure to let you get plenty of rest
Knows it must’ve been hard being alone
So he wants you to recover from however long you missed the rest you’ve needed
You kid wants a new toy? He will counterfeit money and buy hundreds
9/10, a great dad
Lippmann -
Why the hell is your kid suddenly speaking other languages?
It’s Lippmann. He’s too smart and will make sure to compliment you in French, or Spanish, or German
Your kid becomes so well mannered
“Look, daddy is on TV!”
It’s always fun to have a movie night and watch his newest film
Your kid is an actor now, yeah
Expect many private shows staring your lover and your child
His favorite? Princess/prince with him as the knight
Such an incredible comforter to both you and your child
You’re stressed? He’ll make sure you’re okay while also dealing with whatever’s freaking you out
10/10, just perfect
Iceman -
So goddamn gentle
Your heart will melt, watch out
He’s soft spoken and it must be magic at how well he can console your kids whines
You may know of his work, but only what he does
Not the victims, days, times, anything
But you kid? Doesn’t know a single thing
“My daddy is a superhero”
Yeah, depends on who you ask
He is technically killing bad guys (bad guys to the pm that is)
When you lay down your kid he’ll pull you to the kitchen and play a record
Slow dancing and lifting you up with immense ease
9/10, you may have death of a overheated heart
Doc -
…kinda awkward
He is good with kids, of course
All his years in med school? He had to have seen some children
He’s shy with you, but not shocked you have a kid
Will never judge you, not for a second
Makes sure your body has healed correctly
Back pains from pregnancy (if you are the mom)? You don’t know how but he will heal it
Your kid is like a walking dictionary, muttering words that would only make sense to a surgeon
For a doctor, it’s ironic how much he offers candy to them
“Be good and you’ll get a lollipop from daddy.”
7/10, your kid is always healthy, but he’s a bit childish too
Chuuya -
if you’re a teen parent he won’t care
Supports you and your child with his new pm check
Remember that one wan episode when he said that he would spoil a puppy if he had one?
That’s how he is with your kid and you
You want to take the kid to a new amusement park but the lines are too long for the kid to wait?
He will rent the entire thing, boy has connections
A lot of the sheep were young, so he is good with kids
Won’t be great as a role model, but an amazing protector
Nothing will ever hurt you or the child
If you want, he will definitely let you move in
Warning, the house will be filled with toys that the two of you won’t know what to do with
Overall 7/10 his heart is in the right place but he’s so young

Hey princess
(oh god that's weird.)
I have seen that your request are open (or my delusional ass is lying to me)
So could I request like any of the flags x reader that's like ummmmm... Like a mad Scientific that explodes almost everything they touch?
Take your own time honey buns and take care or else the boogie man will get you❤️💋
-arrozamarilloAnon🍚
𝚃𝚑𝚎 𝙵𝚕𝚊𝚐𝚜 𝚡 𝚂𝚌𝚒𝚎𝚗𝚝𝚒𝚏𝚒𝚌 𝚁𝚎𝚊𝚍𝚎𝚛
Warnings - explosions?
Type - headcanons
Made this platonic cause I didn’t know 🙏
Albatross -
Duo made in hell
How is all of Yokohama not gone?
Will ask you to add some crazy shit to his vehicles
Say no, please
Will very much enjoy watching your creations
And enjoys watching them blow up even more
“Can you make me part robot? Pleaseeee?” “No.”
Probably the worst best on having as a lab assistant
Will try and steal some chemicals
6/10, entertaining but not safe
Pianoman -
Will yell at you
If you’re ever caught being reckless? (Which you always are)
He will drag you away from whatever you’re working on and scold you
He isn’t leader of the flags for nothing
And no, he isn’t scared of you
He’s scared for you
Bombs, explosives, chemicals, all very dangerous
And he cares about you
6/10, great person but you won’t be having fun
Lippmann -
Such a menace
Will try and mess with people on missions with you
Threats became a whole lot easier
“Listen to me or my scientist friend will use you as a lad rat.”
As for bombs? A little scared
Don’t you dare ruin that perfect face with smoke from the explosion
But, he will cheer you on from afar
7/10, good but not extraordinary
Doc -
Twin!
Who better than this crazy scientist to be a duo with the port mafias best (or worst) scientist
Saying worst depending on what your skill is used for
Doc’s goal is to save lives, and what’s better than some of the victims of you?
Mafia enemies only of course
As for the explosions? He won’t be present
Already has enough health issues, and smoke isn’t his thing
All in all 9/10 for a partner in crime
Iceman -
Concerned
He’s a gentle, precise man
Tries to keep his life clean even during work
And having you around blowing up every other object? It’s a handful
He’ll never say anything mean
Only out of concern will he use this big muscles and drag you away from another experiment
“No, you’re going to blow your hand off.”
8/10, great for safety
Chuuya 16! -
Thinks it’s the coolest thing to watch explosions
“Blow this up! Woah! Again, again!”
He’s still a teen, of course watching a dumb of buildings get destroyed is awesome
But… still a little scared
You’re a scientist, and his past with them aren’t great
Rest assured that you’ll grow on him, everybody does
Always wants to team up
Using his gravity manipulation you can be right next to a bomb and he’ll protect you from any scrap metal that may fly away
8/10, very childish when seeing explosions (it’s cute)

If this post doesn’t blow up I will make this angst no comfort 😐
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
A single gunshot.
Silence…
Then a name, a call, a pleading scream.
“Chuuya!”
Nothing.
—————————————————————————
A mission, one that was supposed to be simple. Most missions were for Chuuya, using his ability and pure strength let him have total control. He was assigned it by Mori the night before, little background was taken. He knew it was a chance raid on a company that owed money to the port mafia. And what better than his lovely best friend crush to accompany him on an ambush?
Mori, somehow, allowed Chuuya to take you with him. Sure, you can fight, but it’s not like you needed to be there for the job. More like Chuuya needed you there for company.
In and out, grab and go.
An abandoned and crime ridden section of the city held the vault of the enemy. Millions of yen, dollars, pesos. These guys clearly were international, but not tough enough for the port mafia.
The lead up, the break in, and the stealing went smoothly. Chuuya and you, thick as thieves. Him making small comments he just knew would make you laugh. Even if it was a mission, he wanted to see his favorite person smile.
He pretended to be super rich, flashing the bills from the safe and speaking in a deep voice.
“Oh come on, you know that was funny!”
“No… it wasn’t”
“Then why are you laughing”
Unfortunately, one of the bills gave him a papercut. He acted tough, of course, but you saw right through him. Gently grabbing his hand and helping.
“Come on, you don’t gotta do this…”
“Shush, you need help. I know it hurts, so don’t lie to me.”
“I-“
“No lying.”
“It hurts…” Good thing you didn’t ask about his blushing cheeks. He definitely would’ve lied all the way to his grave to not admit your help was flustering him.
Chuuya, contrary to belief of most of his colleagues, was not used to the common injuries that happened everyday in such a dangerous workforce. A high pain tolerance doesn’t do too much in the face of a gunshot or stab wound.
With his ability, bullets and knifes never usually reached him, often being manipulated back to its original holder. Glowing redder than the blood that would spill out of the fresh wounds he’d create.
So when a stray slug came whirling at the two of you on your way out of the enemy’s warehouse, his ability wasn’t activated on account of his safety. He was much more focused on your banter.
Shocking you as well. Before you even heard the ring, his face contorted in pain. Alarms blared in your head.
His lung was hit, his fucking lung. It was obvious by his gasping and gurgling. Labored breaths covered by choking on blood filling his room for oxygen.
He had fallen down at your feet, turning himself over and looking up at you. Only one eye was open, the other squinting in pain. His hair was getting sticky, blood coating his usual black suit and small ponytail.
Your mind had two thoughts, and two thoughts alone.
“Run. Find help.”
Even as he begs you to go, you picked him up. Thankfully, he’s incredibly light. Only bothering factor was the blood that stained all of you. Not for the fact of the gore, for the fact that it was his.
“No, gah, I’ll be fine. Go.”
“Fuck I will.”
—————————————————————————
Alive, he was alive. Healthy? You weren’t sure.
You’d found Doc at the old world pool hall, playing billiards with everyone else. Rushing in with a now unconscious Chuuya laying dead weight in your arms.
Having Iceman rip him from your hold and cradle him to the nearest makeshift “operating table.”
As for your memory beyond that point, it was clouded.
All that stayed clear was… traumatic. Having to stab into his lung with a dull scalpel and hold open the wound as the blood drained from his lung cavity. It soaked into the velvet of the pool table.
Doc obviously made the cut, but only your fingers could hold the wound open to drain the lung without being too large or small.
He could breathe, though his consciousness was gone and his blood coated the floor to the ceiling.
Now it had been days and he was on some random floor of a port mafia skyscraper. You couldn’t even visit. And it was just your luck that Doc wasn’t his doctor so no updates could be given to you or the flags.
The others had been kind, of course. But it was all getting too much.
—————————————————————————
“Albatross, where are we going?”
Your arms were wrapped around your friend’s waist as you left Yokohama. He told you it was gonna be fun, but nothing else.
So after about 30 minutes the engine died down and he very gently took your arms off his sides. He wasn’t normally the gentle type…
It was a cliffside, running out of the woods with a small patch that the moonlight hit. The trees were tall, and the world felt so far away.
“You like it?”
They both sat near the edge, grass as a cushion for their exhausted forms.
“Why did you take me here?”
He froze a bit, then gained back his normal energy.
“I just wanted to show you this place. There's so much noise in the city, but here you can find peace. I wanted to share this place with you."
“I don’t need to be comforted, Alby.”
No smiles were shared anymore.
“I know that… but I- well I dunno.”
“You’re a good person, a good friend. You shouldn’t waste time to sleep doing something for me.”
His face turned to you incredulously.
"How could the thought of making you happy be a waste of time?" Albatross tilted his head. "I just want to spend time with you. Is that so wrong to you?"
You looked away, down to your thighs that were plush against the fuzzy grass. Water crashing into rocks below.
Eyes trained on the splash, each drop of water a hundred feet down. Stones unmoving, taking each hit.
“So you admit it.”
“Huh?”
“You did do this to make me happy.”
“That’s not what this is about.”
“Stop pitying me.”
"Pity? What are you on about?" Albatross scoffed, shaking his head and facing the horizon. “Is that how you see the world... and our friendship?"
“No, but that’s how I see this moment. You would’ve have gone out of your way if Chuuya hadn’t gotten hurt on that mission. I haven’t seen him for days!”
Albatross looked toward you, then away. Quiet in tone.
"You're right. I would have stayed home if Chuuya wasn't seriously injured. But you’re alone! I can't stand to see you upset. It breaks my heart to see you in such a state. So-“
You voice overtakes the air. Not even the crash of the sea in all its rage could be heard.
“No! Just no! I hate this! I hate how all of you look at me like I’m fragile! All the flags, hell Pianoman sent me a fucking bouquet! I don’t need flowers or some nice scenery… I need chuuya… and I hate that.”
The waves took over the scene again. The salt and water. Your head tilted back, moon dictating the void.
Breath in, breath out.
“Is he gonna be okay, Alby?”
“I don’t know.”
“I’m sorry.”
“For…?”
A phone call rang out… his head whipped to the bag still on the motorcycle. It was yours. With little stitches of cute colors and patches of your favorite things.
By the time he looked back, you had vanished.
“Fuck… what the fuck!”
Had you fallen? Jesus, you must’ve. Jumped? No way, not you, never you.
Tripping over his feet, he stood. No body seen falling, no shaking bushes to show movement. He ran to the bag, fumbling the phone to find who called you.
“Chuuya Nakahara <3”
Vocalmail appeared.
Chuuya- “You didn’t answer my call but I’m okay… They are discharging me now. Call me back.”
An immediate call came to Chuuya.
“Hello?”
“Chuuya! God, I can’t-“
“Albatross? You’re not-“
“They’re gone!”
“Gone?”
“I don’t know! Gone, dead, missing. Just gone!”
“…what?”
—————————————————————————
You hadn’t been seen for twenty minutes, but it’s all that it took for Chuuya to rip out his IV and run to the HQ. Instructing Albatross to gather each Flag. He needed his most trusted colleagues…
“What the HELL happened?”
“Chuuya, let him go…”
“No! Fuck you Lippmann. Where are they Albatross, you son of a-“
“Enough!”
He let albatross go, walking to the corner. The six gathered in a meeting room. Only Pianoman had the balls to speak with the enraged Chuuya.
“Chuuya, if they’re gone…”
“They aren’t gone… no. You’re wrong.”
“Chuuya.”
“It’s the enemies fault. It’s my fault too. I got shot, and they must’ve been scared. Maybe someone took them! Or pushed them, you can’t see a body from that cliff view. I wasn’t there, I couldn’t save them. Albatross looked away and… and.”
“Chuuya! No, enough of that. What do you want to do?”
Every chair, every tile, every table and painting down to every atom around him glowed red. Floating. His answer was obvious.
“Find whoever did this a get revenge. Kill. Them. All.”
—————————————————————————
There was no talking him out of this. He’d go to the ends of the earth for you. For your honor, safety, happiness. Hell, what he’d to just to confirm what happened.
This side of Yokohama is dirty. Thick with construction. The night was no longer as young as it had been when you had gone, but no light glowed beside the moon. No sign of the sun, daybreak was far.
Alleyways covered the group.
The gingers footsteps broke the pavement with each step. He knew where the enemy was, and he knew damn well he’d massacre the place.
On the off chance they hurt you. He hadn’t confirmed it, although nothing was stopping this storm inside now.
When he entered the building… it was silent? Bodyguards nowhere to be seen.
Not only that, but the next door had blood pooled under the frame.
“We will stay here and make sure it’s secure. Keep moving, Chuuya.”
Now alone, he ventured through the building. But not a single noise! Fuck, had they abandoned the place?
Bodies were limp on the floor, he paid no mind. They weren’t gonna help him find you. It didn’t even cross his mind to wonder happened.
Almost reaching the back he finally heard a sign of life. Or death? A gunshot.
Through the next door.
Pitter pattering of rain knocked the metal, inviting him to open the door. Whatever was on the other side was alive.
Another gunshot, who the hell was outside?
He blew the door off with a single kick, into the outside.
All that he was holding crashed onto the stairs exit. Shocked, confused, relieved. Never had he felt so many human emotions at once.
There you were, beautifully violent. The enemy scattered around you. Rain washing blood off your skin, staining the pavement in a stream of red. God, you were alive. And so damn strong.
Like an angel, glowing in the moon above all death. Above everything, just as he had seen you everyday.
Eyes sharper than a hawks were yours. Allowing a gun to follow your eye line. And right in between that new eye line was him. Chuuya Nakahara, staring down the barrel of your nine.
Arms dropped, allowing wide eyes to take in your features. No longer blocked by the gun, he stared.
“You’re alive?!” “You’re alive?!”
Both of you spoke at the same time. And it was an incredible feeling of relief.
“I thought they killed you so I-“ “I thought they killed you so I-“
“Thank god… Thank god!”
A hug? Never had something made him feel better. No wine or music or fight. You. Just you.
“What the hell are you doing here?! This isn’t safe.”
“Chuu… I thought they killed you! So I came here to get revenge… but I had to leave the flags out of it. It’s so dangerous, and what if they insisted on coming with me and got hurt?”
“You’re such a dumbass… too damn kind for me.”
“I’m just so happy you’re alive. Wait, am I hurting you? You just got shot!”
You pulled away:
“No, don’t let go. Stay here, right here.”
Arms pulled you tighter into the hug before you could retreat.
“Why are you here?”
“Would you believe me if I said the same reason as you? But I didn’t fake my death at least…”
You made a faux annoyed face, “punching” his chest.
“Hey! Not fair. It was-“
“You’re so beautiful.”
Eyes full of adoration looked at you. All of you.
“Excuse me?”
“It took me almost losing you to know I can’t be scared. Can I?”
He tilted your chin to the perfect angle for a kiss. Rain soaked the two of you, his hair sticking to his neck and cheeks. Never had be looked so irresistible.
Your lips met, with more passion that rivaled the strength of the waves he thought he had lost you to.
“Never let me go, never.”
“I promise.”
