you were fuming. you were pissed off. you wanted to grab yuri by his throat, honestly, and try to force him to see reason. the abyss wasn’t a safe place to do these sorts of runs, especially going after mercenaries, much like the mission the ashen wolves were given this month. in fact, the last time aelfric requested such a task, yuri nearly got himself killed. you’d never forget how his blood trickled down his neck, chuckling in dismay as the knife from his opponent nearly nicked his flesh. by the goddess, you were so angry with him, but your worry overpowered your other emotions as you did everything you could to focus on helping yuri feel better.
despite the fact that he was nearly killed, yuri was ready to take on this mission. constance, balthus and hapi were all on board, but you? hell no.
“yuri, you could’ve died!” you argued with him. you two had been fighting for nearly twenty minutes now, a constant bickering that seemed to have no end. usually, you never had arguments, but the fact that yuri can get so reckless during battles started to really get on your nerves, and your emotions. “there is no way we should accept this mission, or at least, only have us five do it on our own.”
“s/o, we’ll be fine. we always are,” yuri drawled in that tone of voice that showed you, he didn’t care too much about the conversation. “i know what i’m doing, and i’m always safe because i’m light on my toes, and i know how to manipulate the enemy.”
“but that can only work a few more times before something bad happens. yuri, please just listen to me!” you practically begged him now, hoping he would see reason. “i’m not asking you to stop doing these missions, i’m asking you to... at least be safe, and take more back-up with you. what would happen if you were outnumbered by the enemy, and we were too far away to save you? huh? what would you do then?”
“find a way to get out of it, of course. unless, there is no option to slaughter them all like pigs,” yuri scoffed with a chuckle.
“yuri! listen to yourself!” you huffed, but before you could bring on the next piece of your argument, yuri held up his hand to stop you.
“you need to have more faith in me. believe in me, s/o or perhaps this whole... thing... may not work after all,” yuri told you coldly, your heart sinking further into your chest. “i don’t need someone hanging around me like a dead goose.” as he walked away, tears slipped from your eyes and a sob became stuck in your throat. how could he say those hurtful things? after all, you were only trying to protect him...
and then, that fateful day occurred. you were doing fine, hapi supporting you with her magic on your left, and balthus taking down enemies on the right. you spotted yuri off in the distance, using his magic and sword to protect himself, but there was that sick feeling in your stomach like something would happen to him. something... horrible.
maybe you should’ve been more focused on yourself, because your emotions started to overthrow your movements, and one of the bandits sneered, finding it easy to slice into your arm with his blade. you cried out in pain, backing away, but he made sure he finished the job by pushing the sharp edge through your left side. you stared down at your hands, which were now soaked in your own blood and attempted to fish out a vulnerary, but your legs grew faint and unable to support you, you collapsed onto the ground. All you remember is yuri’s screams of your name, and then, nothing.
you awoke hours later in the abyss, on one of the beds in the female quarters. your body was screaming out in pain, but luckily, your wounds had been bandaged and the bleeding had stopped. tilting your head to the side, you noticed yuri crouched down at your bed, sobbing into the sheets while he grasped onto one of your hands firmly. you had never see him cry like this, it made you instantly reach over and touch the soft ends of his lovely hair.
“...darling?” yuri asked through his tears, tilting his head up at you and the expression he made -- goodness, you never wanted to forget it. he looked so relieved and so happy to see that you were still with him. “oh my sweet s/o! you’re alive!” yuri was careful to embrace you, making sure he didn’t injure you further as he held you in his arms, nestling his head on top of yours.
“yuri...” you whispered and kissed the front of his neck. “i’d never leave you. you’re stuck with me forever.”
“heh.. as i would want it,” yuri murmured. “i want to apologize for what i said to you earlier. i was just so upset that you didn’t think i was capable enough, but i see now... i shouldn’t be concerned about that. i should be concerned about the future we have together, and that i need to be more defensive for your sake” tears spilled from your eyes as you latched onto him and whimpered,
“i love you so much. thank you.”
“i love you too, my world.”
