Shiki Natsumezaka (Dance With Devils)
Y/N
As you walk through the school corridors you come to a stop when you see a group of girls bullying another girl. You knew the girl from sitting next to her in class, she was sweet and didn’t deserve this treatment.
‘Now what do we have here y/n?’ Shiki giggles, appearing next to you out of thin air.
You tense, ‘you know I don’t get why people can’t be nice.’
He throws his head back and laughs, ‘well, as one of the many sardonic people in this world, we have to get our kicks somehow.’
You huff and turn to glare at the mysterious boy who rarely showed up to class and people labelled ‘odd’, ‘well I like to see the good in people Shiki. I bet even you have some good inside you.’
Shiki stops laughing and glances at you, taken aback by the seriousness in your eyes and sincerity in your voice. You’d never once judged him based on other people’s opinions and gave him the benefit of the doubt. Aside from the student council, you were the only other person in the school he could tolerate.
Next thing you know he marches over to the group of bullies, and you swear he admits some dark aura because they run away with their tales between their legs looking like they’d seen a ghost or worse a devil. He helps the victim to her feet and she thanks him before limping off.
When he walks back over to you he notices your smile, it could light up the darkest of rooms and it was aimed at him. You don’t know what overcomes you, but you find yourself hugging the purple-haired boy.
‘Thank you Shiki, maybe you’re an angel in disguise.’
He tenses in your arms before relaxing into the hug, ‘and people call me odd y/n.’
You continue smiling at him, ‘I’d much rather be odd than boring, that’s what people call me.’
Shiki shakes his head and cups your chin looking you dead in the eyes, his expression unreadable, ‘you’re not boring, you’ve got a kind soul y/n. Don’t let anyone taint it,’ he pauses, ‘especially me,’ he whispers the last part under his breath but you hear it.
What did he mean by a kind soul and tainting? Before you can ask he releases your chin, and after you blink you find yourself alone in the corridor. A part of you wanted to stay away from Shiki, but a bigger part of you wanted to know more about him.
