Ran could see it. The way you clenched your jaws, the way you balled your fists. He saw it all and smirked. You screeched at him as he won. AGAIN. You were supposed to win this. You were always the best at learning new languages weren't you? Then how come Ran out of all people beat you? It confused you, you knew ran since forever, he wasn't the type of person to learn a new language. Anything he does, he plans it perfectly. He definitely has a motive behind mastering a new language in less than 2 months and you knew it— you knew his motive. It was obvious from the way he looked down on you, implementing that he's always a step above you and in simple terms he's just better. Better at everything. And he doesn't even try. Just the thought of him boils your blood. And since you weren't able to do anything, you ran to your carriage and locked yourself in your room when u reached your palace.
You could hear your personal maid begging for you to come out, "Y/n dear, it's 8. Please come out, you've been locking yourself in ur room for 3 hours, It's dinner time". You made yourself comfortable on the bed before letting out a long exaggerated sigh. You just hated him. Him. His guts. The way he looks down on you. Everything.
You fixed your dress and went down to eat dinner. You saw your parents sitting in the table and that made you happy. They finally had time for you after so many months. It was hard living in the same palace and yet not being able to even catch a glimpse of your own parents. However, the smile on your face soon dissappeared after you saw the evil prince from the neighbouring kingdom a.k.a Ran Haitani. You sat beside your parents after rolling ur eyes at him.
R/m: "You've grown a lot y/nnie"
R/f : "Ofc she has, she's a grown woman now, she's no longer the little girl who used to cry over a small cut"
Everyone : *laughs*
R/m: Sooo Ito-chan, have you told her yet? About the big moment?
This snatched all your attention. Tell you? The big moment? What was happening??? U honestly had no clue
Y/m : haha we haven't yet told her, she was busy earlier.
You weren't— they were. But still, What was happening. Everyone seemed to know what was going on. EVERYONE but you. The sly smile adoring Ran's lips said he knew about it too. Ugh! How much you hated this.
Y/f : So Y/n, You know, me and mama are getting a bit old and our health isn't at it best right now. So we want you to marry Ran, I know you hate him, but trust me darling he loves you more than anything. "DAD HE ABSOLUTELY HATES ME". Would you marry him and make us proud, baby?
You couldn't do anything now. You wanted to run, scream, cry. But nothing happened. Your legs didn't move, your voice was barely audible. You didn't want this. Neither the wedding nor the idea of making your parents proud only by marrying him. They did a lot for you, from the second you were born till now. They gave you everything before you asked for it and asked nothing in return. Now that they finally asked you something after all these years, will you accept it or will u make them sad ? Ofcourse, you wouldn't, you weren't ungrateful. If that's what they want, then you're ready. Ready to marry him.
"Yes dad, I would love to marry him" You said with a smile that didn't quite reach your eyes. Ran saw it, but your parents didn't. They were too busy celebrating the great news. You sat there quietly. You didn't know how to react— It all happened too quickly. You were internally panicking until u heard a soft voice requesting your parents to talk alone with YOU, his soon-to-be. Wait- soft voice ? That's unusual. He must definitely plan to embarrass you later.
You followed him quietly into the balcony, your bangs covering your teary eyes which were about to be spilled out any moment.
"Why? Why did u say yes?" You heard him speak. You could say nothing except whispering a huh, which u were sure didn't reach his ears. But it did anyway. "Something's obviously wrong Ito-chan, Your smile didn't even reach your eyes, are u really okay with this marriage? I can ask my parents to cancel it if you aren't happy with this y'know?" You could hear the genuine concern in his voice. The smirk that once was in his lips is now replaced by a frown. This was you last straw to not cry.
"Why? W-why are u like this ? This isn't you? Why are you nice to me ? Do u really think im that p-pathetic huh? I- i—" that's all you were able to say before breaking down in tears in front of him. Oh this was a nightmare.
Ran gently pulls you into his arms and kisses your head and forehead until you calmed down.
"Who said I hated you huh? Who said I thought u were pathetic? Did I say it?"
"H-huh? I thought —"
Your words were interrupted by ran as he proceeded to speak, "Did I say it?"
"I- no. You didn't. I just thought—"
"See, I never told you anything of that sort, And honestly i dont think you're pathetic. In fact, I think you are the most beautiful, talented, adorable, super-cute girl i've met in my entire life y'know?"
"What—"
"What? Am I not allowed to love you?"
"Huh? You love ME?"
"Ofc YOU dumbo, do u see anyone else here?"
"Oh- yeah"
There was long silence between you both before you decided to speak again.
"How long have u loved me, Ran?"
"Hmmm, I loved you ever since we were children. I fell in love with the way you smile, the way you talk, the way you walk, literally everything about you makes me wanna fall in love with you all over again. You make me feel like a teenager experiencing his first love. You have no idea how many classes i've joined just to be with you, Who would've thought that the great Ran haitani would join a class to simple learn (language name). You got me doing it. Oh you have no idea how much i wanted to hug yoy and kiss you whenever you show me that face of yours. You make me wanna be a better man. All for you"
You were flabbergasted. You were blushing like crazy and your heart was beating so hard you were sure people from the next kingdom would hear you. You didn't expect this— Definitely not from ran.
"You know, I've never seen you that way, but the sincerity in your words makes me wanna give you a chance and that's what I'm gonna do. Dont break my heart, Haitani"
Words couldn't express how happy he was, to be accepted by the love of his life, the apple of his eyes, the sunshine that lits up his world, You were his everything and he wanted to protect you.
"Oh darling, I would never break your heart. I may break others bones but never your heart. Never in a million years"
And that's how your love story began, in the balcony, your eyes interlocked with his, as if time has stopped. Everything stopped. The only thing that matter now were you and ran. You could feel your heartbeat perfectly syncing his racing ones— indicating he's your soulmate, he's yours and you're his. That's when you realized Ran haitani wasn't always a bad guy. He was the one who helped you when you almost got kidnapped by a bunch of locals, He was the one who helped you become a better version of yourself because if it wasn't for him, you wouldn't be practicing your skills regularly. He was your everything. So were you his.
This may be the end of the one shot, but the love you have for each other will continue for centuries to come.
Maybe marrying your so called 'Enemy' wasn't a bad idea afterall <3
You knew you were gonna enjoy your new life with him. And you were more than excited for it to happen ♡
