I don’t acutally know how to format these things, I'll get better at it I swear! Its my first thing I'm going to post and its a rarepair from mystic messenger of mine but I hope any other rare pair people who ship vander7 get to see this, as a treat
"You know how filthy this field is, the minute you have something to lose is when you're at your weakest. You've known that for the longest time so why are you risking it for her?" It was complete hypocrisy say this to Sevens face, knowing in his heart that the person he held most dear was infront of him as much as he hated to say it.
"Weak huh..." The hacker replied nonchalantly, clearly avoiding his gaze looking off to the side. It was clear that this wasn't something he wanted to hear, but he wouldn't quite tell him to stop nagging him on the subject.
"The best thing you can do for her is to stay away and get back to work, don't go back to being an amateur on me." Vanderwood sighed in annoyance as he crossed his arms impatiently, waiting for a sign that he was acutally listening to what he was saying- atleast an 'okay' rather than a half-assed answer.
There was only silence from the red head.
His eye twitched for a second with a groan before he walked past seven purposefully bumping his shoulder as he made his final threat "Don't mess things up for us Luciel, don't become my next target."
And though the air was heavy around them Seven cracked a small grin, could he really carry out such a mission if it was him?
The answer was no,the agent could never kill Luicel even if ordered to. If something as wild as that were to happen... he might've even suggested they run away.
But that was completely out of character for him, the other male would expect him to yell at him with a quick hit on the back of his head and tell him how stupid he was for getting them into the mess. Not expect a 'lets just run away from it all' response.
The next few days Luciels attitude went in highs and lows, one minute he was giggling at his phone the next his head was down on his desk- quietly contemplating.
And then one day he had to rush out, and stay with that girl for a few days. In text and on the phone he had either been ignored or met with a frustrated "Just leave me alone, it doesn't concern you."
"Doesn't concern me?! Dumbass we're partners! Your irrational actions can put me in danger at any time! You need to think-" what came out of his mouth wasn't what he wanted to say, but the mix of slight jealously and frustration within him forced out something else.
"I won't be with the agency after this is over, you don't have to worry about me anymore. I need to take care of some things," and before he could get a word in he was abruptly hung up on.
This wasn't like him, not even when they first met when he was so uptight did he speak like that- he shouldn't be surprised. They didn't even know that much about eachother even as the years went by, so why did it hurt to hear those words? It was his own damned fault for getting so attached to his friend, if he could even call him that.
Missed calls went by and it wasn't until he needed someone that vanderwood got to come by to Rikas apartment to help Seven and his.. 'friend'.
Had she had any idea the amount of work he put onto himself to protect her? Did this stranger know him better than he? What had suddenly changed after the past couple of days.
Was it the tired yet fond looks he gave her? Was it the endless hours of work that made him think this person was worth it enough to risk his life?
He drove with a slight scowl on his face, keeping silent for the rest of the ride. There was no point in butting in anymore, all he could do was help him the best he could- in anyway he could.
Some days past, and it was evident that Luciel had lied about not having feelings for that women. But he wasn't going to be angry about it any longer, it wasn't like him to dwell on things that 'didn't concern him'.
Right before the RFAs party Luciel had told him directly he wanted nothing to do with the agency anymore, that he would be on the run with her for as long as it took.
Someone else had gotten what he only dreamed of in days. A life away from it all, running away where danger couldn't find them.
He was going to take his own advice, staying away from those he cared about so they wouldn't get hurt. Vanderwood made parting ways for good look so easy, Luicel was happy. And who was he to ruin it with his feelings that refused to shrink and only grow.
He turned his back as Luicel called not to look back as he might run into his arms if he did jokingly.
The Agent walked far enough to his car until he was sure Luciel wouldn't be watching, he was right. Looking back did make him want to run back.
When you're partner doesn't notice your feelings for years but falls in love with some random girl in 11 days and runs off with her 👁👄👁
I didn't forget that in the secret ending he legit gave up his life at the agency and changed his name to go live with seven and the MC 👁👁🤔 he sure does care alot about this friend... hmm.... I ain't forget chertiz 😃🔫
Anyway, hope anyone who sees this enjoys. ♡
