You belong with me – kaoru

Kaoru doesn't think it's fair.

After spending most of his school years in the same schools as you, he still doesn't think it's fair for you to never look his way with the same glitter in your eyes when you look for other guys your age. He knows he looks like trouble, not a lot actually gives two damn about him but you still spend time with him sometimes. He likes the same things as you, he doesn’t tease you about it like they do. He has your number. He can’t imagine this being so casual when you answer him so quickly.

Yet here you are, talking with this guy in a sports team, flashing him your prettiest puppy eyes and he had to look away, feeling anger bubbling inside him. He knows he’s your boyfriend, you talk about him a lot – even if it includes more about him alone than your relationship. For what he had heard, it was always about his game, where he wants to go, what he likes and never about the last movie you’ve seen, an actual date without counting you coming to see him play or bowling because he loves it so much.

He can’t help but notice your smile fading away slowly, the pretty keychain on your bags have gone missing – even the one he got with you one day before seeing an animated movie. You still wave at Kaoru, but only when he’s not around or not looking. You’re alway so sorry when you smile at him, it drives him crazy how helpless he seems.

He would treat you so much better, watch your favorite show with you, talk about it with you even if he doesn’t like it or disagree – he’d just do his best to see you smile everyday. it makes him want to hit a wall, break his nose or ruin his sports career. But he wouldn’t, he can’t get into more trouble than he’s already in with his looks.

It doesn’t help that you're not sitting far away from him, that he comes to see you, Kaoru always has to listen to everything ; from his sugarcoat compliments to his performance in the last game. But Kaoru can’t miss the way he looks at your friend and it makes him sick to his stomach. Yet, it’s not like he can just walk to you and tell you out of nowhere that your boyfriend is gonna cheat on you, right ?

Well, let’s just say that he's not surprised when you called him in the middle of the night one day, sobbing on the other, asking if you can meet him. He doesn’t hesitate before saying yes and rushing to the 7/11 you mentioned, not without telling his sister before. You were sitting outside in the cold, falling shoulders while drying away the tears left on your face ; he secretly hoped he could’ve done it for you. Instead, he sits next to you, not sure if he can hold you or not, and doesn’t say a thing before you do. It takes a few minutes. He can tell you have a hard time breathing, controlling it so you wouldn't just cry on the spot again. He doesn’t dare tell you that you don’t have to say it, that he knows, but again, he can’t just spit that like it’s nothing. It was even worse to learn it after everyone.

“He cheated on me,” you sobbed even if you tried your best not to. “With my friend, on top of that. I can’t– I can’t understand how she could do that.”

It breaks his heart how you don’t even try to defend him, you knew he could all along, but being betrayed by a friend is worse he guesses. He wants to hold you, tell you it’s gonna be ok but who is he to tell you that right now ? All he can do is not leave you alone when you’re so vulnerable, because he’ll never forgive himself if something happens to you.

“Let’s grab something to eat,” he said, giving you his hand. “We’ll talk about it inside, ok ? It’s chilling.”

“I don’t think I want to talk about it,” you laughed bitterly but took his hand. “Let’s talk about something else, like One Piece.” You don’t have to tell him twice.

After taking a seat, your instant noodle done and your favorite onigiri in hand you could finally let it out and forget about it. He almost forgot how fun it was to talk with you, since you barely talked to him when you were taken. He asked you later why, maybe, right now he just wanted to hear you laugh – or at least see you smile. There’s a silly, loving look in his eyes when he watches you talk about Vivi as if she was your favorite character ever. He’s never seen you so happy in months and he can’t help but think it’s because he actually knows you : what you like, how to make you laugh genuinely. He can’t help but think you belong with him.

He’s quick to bounce back on a fact, getting his head up from his arm and keeping the conversation alive, even on your way back to his place. It’s closer than yours and his sister would never mind having you around when she likes you so much.

“She’s been asking about you a lot, in fact,” Kaoru confesses as you enter the building. “She’s gonna be happy to see you tomorrow.”

You blush at him, probably not expecting her to appreciate you this much – you’ve only come to eat once or twice after all. But you felt at home when you passed the door, it seems familiar for some reasons but only because you know you won’t be judged under this roof. You two took place in the living room, you on the couch and him on the big armchair, and you watched anime until both of you knocked out of fatigue. But it has been, despite the start, a rather good night. You’d figure out the rest tomorrow.

Let me know if you liked it!
