(f/n - fandom name) ty for the cute req ^^ not proofread + lmk if there’s warnings i missedd
“lemme just read a few more supas before i end, chat..”
despite your determined words, even the viewers notice your model’s eyes drooping ever so sleepily while you talk. many express their concern and wishes for you to continue tomorrow, while others spam ‘tskr’ and remarks on how endearing the situation was.
“‘go sleep’? nah, you don’t—“ you’re cut off by a yawn, speech turning slower involuntarily, “you don’t have to worry, i’m.. i’m okay guys.”
coincidentally, right as you try to read the next donation, you close your eyes, attempting to give yourself just a second of rest, only to slip right into dreamland. of course, your chat explodes simultaneously; a majority being exclaims of what would happen next while others debate on if something else might’ve occurred. luckily for you, your boyfriend — who just so happens to be experienced in your field of work — is on the bed a few feet over, ready to help out.
mysta rias
mysta is much more observant than some may think (especially when it comes to you) and easily caught onto your state long before chat did
he shook his head from the bed, knowing exactly how you were feeling whilst you pushed yourself to continue thanking donations
it hurt him watching you in such a state, especially knowing he couldn’t do much
but now that you’ve drifted off, he’s quick to tiptoe over and take control of your model
he doesn’t even say hi, only muttering a ‘give me a minute, guys’ before grabbing your underarms and carrying you off to bed
once you’re neatly tucked in, he plants a quick kiss to your forehead before rushing back to finish up the stream
“sorry about that, yes it’s mysta! hope you guys dont mind me taking over for a bit.. wait, why’s everyone saying clip this?!”
mysta isn’t big about sharing much when it comes to your relationship, but he’ll be sure to let your fanbase what’s going on if you (clearly) can’t admit it yourself
“yep.. they say don’t worry, but then shit like this happens. fuckin’ stubborn, aren’t they?” he huffs, glancing over at your sleeping figure with fond but frustrated eyes
“good thing i was here. don’t worry, f/n.. i know you’re jealous and all, but they’re in good hands. if y’know what i mean,” the male cackles before remembering how close you are, sighing when he ensures you’re still asleep
mysta being mysta, he ends up talking to chat for a bit longer than necessary, mostly rambling about you of course
and before he ends stream, the idiot probably comments some suggestive shit that only makes the amount of clips from your stream double (sigh)
however, while he fools around for the viewers, don’t expect to be off the hook without a serious talk in the morning, along with a staff meeting that mysta will personally organize that same night
also,, be prepared for him to never live this down </3
ike eveland
the amount of times he had to stop himself from rushing over and just pulling you to bed throughout the stream..
he even tried (spamming) texting you, yet you’d simply send a stern shake of your head from the desk
so of course, once you closed your eyes for good, ike was already planning out the speech he was going to give you later on
your boyfriend can’t help but mumble about how ‘he knew this would happen’ as he paces closer, muting your mic before carrying you bridal style to bed
as romantic as it sounds, this boy was deadpanning stubbornly the whole time
“well, hello there f/n, ike here! like i’m sure most of you figured out, y/n fell asleep. the remainder of supas will continue next stream, but i hope you guys take this as a lesson that having designated time for rest is just as important—“
yes, even your chat gets an ike lecture
soon after, he’s shutting your pc down while glancing at you with an unreadable gaze
poor boy isn’t sure if he wants to scold you or hug you first
in the end he complies with hugging you all night
even after he wakes up he’ll bring his laptop in bed just so he can be near you while still working
“ah, look who’s awake,” brushing some hair from your face, he chuckles as you stretch cutely. “did you sleep well?”
“mm.. wait, what happened to my stream?”
at this, ike deadpans once again, pushing his laptop away — and that’s when you know you’re in trouble <\3
shu yamino
he knows how headstrong you can be, so he rarely tries to get you to change your mind on things like this, even when watching you doze off on live eats away at his heart
the only time he’d given his opinion was a few hours before stream, where you showed visible signs of over working
“babe?” he swallowed in discontent, inspecting your messy state from the kitchen. “i think you should cancel stream today, we can start a new anime n’ head to bed early tonight instead.”
it was a tempting offer, but the looming thought of potentially letting fans down made you swiftly decline, earning a defeated sound from the male
now here he was, rushing over to mute your mic and gently pat you awake
“y/n— y/n, you fell asleep on stream.”
that has your eyes shooting open, and the redness in them has guilt building further in shu’s chest
he feels like a bad boyfriend, like he should’ve been more assertive in taking care of you, then maybe this wouldn’t have happened
but those thoughts were for another day; right now you needed him more than ever
in an attempt to calm you down as you blabbered in confusion, he squeezes your hand in his
“shh, baby,” shu rarely used such petnames, but it immediately has you settling down. “you’re okay. it’s okay, f/n are still here waiting for you, see?”
he continues to kneel by your setup, rubbing your knuckles comfortingly as you build up the strength to unmute and explain the situation
“i don’t even know what happened, i hope everyone who donated doesn’t mind if i finish reading them next stream?” as you speak, shu nods supportively
if for some reason anybody were to get upset about this, he’d gladly argue with them himself
as soon as you hit ‘end stream’, he rises from the floor, holding your hand while walking to bed and murming affirmations softly
he smiles as you fall back to asleep almost instantly, messaging your manager himself to clear your schedule <3
vox akuma
honestly, he’d never let it come to this in the first place
“love, you’ve been slugging around all day. there’s no way you have the energy for a stream.”
in the end, you make a compromise to stream for much less time than you originally planned.. yet still fell asleep
vox hadn’t even realized at first; so busy completing work of his own until the silence finally registered
he would be mad and scold you like ike.. but you just look so cute napping away at your desk!!!
without bothering to mute, mans just admires you for a second with a tiny smirk
even in this state you were stunning to him,, not his fault
eventually lifts you like a sack over his shoulder (if you weren’t so tired he’d slap your ass by now. sigh) before settling you in bed
at that point he was desperate to just cuddle up with you, but of course the live was still ongoing
“why hello, f/n, there’s been a bit of.. em, a turn of events as you can see.. my idiot partner refuses to give themself a break so now you get me!”
vox chuckles lowly while reading the chaos and confusion in chat, sparking a new onset of comments. “guys, i can guarantee your oshi is not dead, c’mon, have some faith in me.”
like mysta, he doesn’t want to let the viewers in on too much, but he definitely hovers around the topic of overworking and breaks
“—after all, they’ve given up hours upon hours to plan more streams and events for you to enjoy, so now, i’d like everyone to be equally supportive and let them have a week or so off, hm? we don’t want this happening again, right?”
it’s a bit passive-aggressive, protective boyfriend tone honestly,, he can’t help it okay!
the minute it’s over vox is rushing back into bed, taking on the role of big spoon instinctively at your exhausted state
in the morning, he’s eager as ever to help you send a break request to the company <3
luca kaneshiro
now this one can be a bit,,
oblivious
he could tell you were tired, yes — but had no inkling it was to such a degree where you’d fall asleep in front of thousands of viewers
it definitely makes him think back to how your energy had been much lower than usual for a while now
he feels guilt bubbling in his stomach, but pushes it away as he swiftly moves in front of your mic
“chat! psst, it’s— it’s luca! y/n fell asleep, should i scare them!?” he whispers, barely holding in a mischievous giggle, “kidding, kidding. they deserve to sleep, like, really. i’ll keep you guys company for now alright?“
being the entertainer he is, luca easily finished up stream with his ‘impromptu asmr’, all while keeping one hand on your knee affectionately
“alright f/n, i think it’s time i uh, get y/n to bed, but thank you to those who stuck around! i’ll make sure they get lots of rest, pinky promise!”
it was going smoothly until he clumsily tried to lift you from the chair, awkwardly placing one hand on your behind and the other around your torso
“luca? the fuck are you doing?” you blink, only registering your boyfriend’s interesting hand placement as you wake up
his eyes widen, quickly letting you down with flushed cheeks. “what— i— i was just bringing you to bed! you fell asleep!”
“oh.. wait, on stream?!”
the boy quickly assures you (through lots of laughter) that he had it under control, and luckily for him you were too tired to fight back, only humming as he slides into bed as well
“i pinky promise’d your chat, babe. i promised that i’d make sure you rest, so no streaming for the next couple days, ‘kay?”
he gets snoring in response, which in his mind is good enough!
you wake up to a message from your manager wishing you a nice week off.. and the culprit only smiles adorably <3

Your out at a fairly nice club with Vox for date night. Normally he'd splurge for a vip booth for the two of you but tonight you really just wanted to dance your heart out. Leaving vox at the bar, a few fruity cocktails in you head to your target. The dj was playing all the right stuff and you sway your body to the music. You turn to vox flashing him the biggest smile from across the dancefloor and you can tell he's enjoying himself as well.
You dance by yourself for a bit eventually doing what drunk people do best making friends with the drunk girl group dancing next to you and you all dance together. Then the next trun of events happen that typically happen whena lone group is minding there own business. A group of guy's approach trying to dance up on y'all. You visible tense for a moment. Scooting away from the taller figure, who wasn't your partner, trying to grab your waist.
You flash another look, this time a more desperate one, to Vox at the bar who is seething. You can tell by his posture and the way his eyes darken, locked in on the stranger dancing on you. You lean in as a courtesy to warn the stranger for what's about to come. You shout over the loud music. "Hey man, my boyfriend is over the bar glaring at you right now. I'm gunna be honest I'm just here to dance so if you'd kindl-" the asshole cuts you off. "Honestly a pretty thing like you should be alone on the dance floor. He whisper shouts in your ear in the least sexy way possible.
You sigh and look over your shoulder to Vox again who is already making his way toward you. You can feel the anger radiating off him and into the crowd. He reaches you and possessively wraps his arms around you. "Hey babe." He smiles and looks up at the jerk with a shit eating grin on his face. "I was just talking about you." You smile as he places kisses all over the top of your head, while you back is pressed against his front swaying with you to the music.
The guy from earlier audible scoffs and walks away at the pda happening in front of him. "Easy enough, I was 2 seconds away from punching him square in the jaw I swear." Vox mumbles in your ear, sending shivers down your spin. "I've seen you possessive before, but this is a whole new level Vox." You smile. "I'm sorry... I just couldn't watch some guy grind up on you while I just fucking sat there." He mumbles pulling you to face him.
He places a possessive kiss on your lips trailing down to your neck. You bit back a moan as he sinks his teeth into your neck leaving a nice bruise for you to admire later. He pulls away to inspect his handy work. "There now you're marked as mine." He smiles triumphantly. " Always have been always will be." You smile back.

You were getting some shopping done downtown. Luca was working but texted you letting you know he'd pick you up. I was getting later and the street lights had just turned on. It was the weekend so the sidewalk was decently filled with people either meeting up with friends, doing some shopping, coming home from work. You name it, it was probably happening. You didn't mind the crowd though, it was kind of fun to people watch.
You get a text from Luca saying he was about 5 minutes out, just trying desperately to find some parking. You make a mental note to thank him later generously for picking you up at such a busy time. "Hey." You head whips up from your phone to be met with a group of well... thuggish looking men. "H.. hello?" You say back confused. "What's a pretty thing like you doing out here all alone?" "I-" "You should come drink with us!" The men surround you. You panic slightly glancing at the brutish looking men all around you." I'm actually waiting for someone! " You yelp." Great, your friends are our friends now. " One of them smirks.
"I'm actually not so friendly." A familiar voice rings out pushing past the ring of men. "Nor ' just a friend', thank you." Luca, your savior, plants a kiss on your forehead. This throws the group of men into a frenzy. One of them gets upset by this and throws a haphazard punch at your mafia boss boyfriend who easily doges it and plants one on just as rough right in the man's face. "I suggest you scram, fucking with me or them isn't a smart idea." Luca spits out.
The men scatter and you're left with Luca who is now dottingly inspecting you to make sure you're unharmed. "I'm so sorry I wasn't here sooner. Are you okay? They didn't touch you did they? If they did so help me god I will-" "Luca! I'm fine you got here just in time." You smile at him and he lets out a sigh of relief. "I have to give you a handgun to carry in your bag." He muses. "LUCA! You're too overprotective, you taught me how to throw a punch or two if needed." You place a kiss on his check. "I'm okay, I promise." He smiles down at you. "Well, when we get home I promise I'll make it to you."

Shu left to go buy movie tickets. You've been wanting to see this movie for a while and you finally convinced Shu to come with you. You went to go buy snacks but finished before he was done. So you waited. A group of boys, probably no older than high school age exit a theater. They stand around talking about what they just watched and you laugh lightly recalling the days you went to the theater with a group of your friends.
One of the boys takes notice of you and suddenly you have a bunch of eyes on you. You pull out your phone to try to blend back into the background but you can tell they're still staring. Husher whispers and murmurs come from the gaggle of boys one of them is pushed forward and begins approaching you.
"hello, sorry if this is... Awkward? I noticed your really pretty and." He pulls out a slip of paper he was hiding behind his back. "I wanted to give you my number... Maybe we can see a movie sometime?" He smiles. You feel bad for the next words that are about to come out of your mouth. "I'm so so-"
"Got the ticket!" Shu sprints over to you. "Sorry it took me so long" he stops in his tracks. "A friend of yours? " He asks. you to shake your head. Shus eyes fall on the slip of paper "Ah... I see..." Shu takes your hand and walks away. " Shu!" You protest! "Listen I'm saving you the trouble of having to reject the poor guy, he'll live." Shu chuckles. "you huff but are definitely relieved you don't have to reject him yourself. Leave it to your partner to read to you better than you can.

Ike really wanted to go to a new book cafe that opened up in town. He was excited and frankly you were excited for the cafe part. You walk hand in hand down the street as Ike excitedly rambles on about all the details
. "... And there's reading books you can rent out, which is super exciting because, come on it's a reading nook. " He giggles giddily. " I wonder if the lattes are any good." You ponder." I heard the food and the drinks are amazing too! A famous barista personally trained the entire staff! " He explains. This perks you up immediately.
You listen to Ike a bit more before finally reaching your distanation. "I'm gunna check out reserved area and get settled. Order me a something sweet?" He asks. "You bet!" You smile lovingly at your very excited boyfriend who dashes off to down the very quiet hall. You wonder over to the pastries cases where a young barista is working hard crafting the most delicious looking latte. Your mouth waters.
The barista notices you. "Hello! Is there anything I can get you?" You point at a few pastries Ike will definitely enjoy with you and then you order yourself you favorite flavor of latte. "Coming right up." He says with a wink. You find this odd but nevertheless wait patiently for your items.
Once your items are ready the barista calls out your name and you go to pay but they stop you. "It's on the house." You stare dumbfounded."I can't do that" "please I'm just pleased that someone as pretty as you can enjoy my work." They flash a smile at you and you feel uncomfortable. Ike shows up just in time. "Here's the pay for the items. I appreciate the sentiment but they're taken." He smiles sickly sweet taking your latte from you as well as the pastries. Ike leans on for a kiss. "Exactly what I wanted something sweet. " He smiles at the barista before whisking you off to your private room leaving the barista dumbfounded.

Grocery shopping with Mysta is fun. He's easily distractible though, constantly putting items into the cart that don't necessarily need to be there. It's like grocery shopping with a small child minus all the screaming... Sometimes...
On this particular day you sent Mysta to the produce section in hopes he could help cut down on shopping time. You gave him the list of produce you needed and sent him on his way. Unsurprisingly you finished your half of the grocery shopping before he did. So you shot him a text letting him know you'd be getting in line.
You settle into a short line and wait for your turn. A young man a little younger than you was handling the register. He greeted you warmly as your turn approached. "Having a good day so far?" He asked with the beeps of your purchases in the background. "Pretty good." You respond politely. "A lot of groceries for a person all alone." He smiles at you. You cringe. Was that supposed to be a line or an insult. Regardless, you laugh politely and slightly awkwardly.
As if he could sense your awkwardness, Mysta comes to the rescue, hand full of produce and planting a kiss on the top of your hand. "Sorry for the wait! I keep going to the organic section and forgetting that all produce is organic." You sigh, you'll definitely talk about this later... The clerk looks taken a back by your boyfriend and backs off a little.
The two of you pay and walk out to get your groceries home. "Hun you know not all produce is organic right?" You question softy. "I know that." He sneers. "I just had to come up with a good excuse to get that guy to stop hitting on you!" He wails. " He was just being friendly. " Mysta shakes his head in defiance. " Nah men are just like that. You have to be careful otherwise I'll get jealous. " He pouts. You laugh, knowing full well he was jealous that whole time.

Shout out Tumblr for not saving this as a draft this has been a post for over a day bc I didn't wanna lose all my work 🧍🏻♂️
Btw my requests are open so if you have one send it my way!
Summary : As the manager of Luxiem, you were responsible with managing these boys. Who would've know these boys would develop... An interest in you..?
(In this fanfic, NIJISANJI is an ACTUAL office, where all the liver's go to, to stream :PP)
In the bustling heart of NIJISANJI EN's headquarters, there was a palpable sense of excitement as Luxiem prepared for their upcoming anniversary stream. The members being Luca, Shu, Ike, Mysta, and Vox
They were well-known for their charisma and charm, but behind the scenes, they shared a common, unspoken distraction. Their interest for you, their manager
You were the definition of efficiency, your head always buried in your planner, phone pressed to your ear as you coordinated events, sponsorships, and media appearances. Your obliviousness to anything not but your schedule was almost comical at most
As they gathered in the conference room to discuss the stream's logistics, the members exchanged knowing looks. Each harbored a gentle admiration for you, appreciating your dedication and often, your unintentional neglect of their not-so-subtle hints of affection
Shu, more reserved, showed his affection through helping you when your in need. Like, helping you with the technical issues. Your not the brightest when it comes to technical stuff, but luckily Shu was there to happily lend you a helping hand!
Ike, the dear novelist, attempted to engage in deep conversations about books and art, hoping to catch your interest. Even though, you always engaged, you were to caught up with work to notice the deeper intentions behind his words
Luca, threw flirtatious comments your way. But, in a very dorky way “(Y/n), if I had a stream for every time you crossed my mind, I’d never be offline" You chuckled, scribbling notes without missing a beat. “Make sure those streams are scheduled properly, Luca. We wouldn’t want your fans missing out on any of that charm”
Mysta, helping out with anything he can, just to help you with your work, and not stressing us much about your work, yet sometimes his 'help' makes more problems for you. Yet, you still really appreciate him trying to help as best as he can!
Vox, definitely more protective of you when you guys are out. Whether you like it or not, he'll definitely accompany you when your out and about. He doesn't want any creeps to go near you
And despite their efforts, you remained blissfully unaware of there hints of affection. To you, these were just endearing quirks of your talented team, nothing more, nothing less
The anniversary stream was a roaring success, filled with laughter, games, and an outpouring of support from fans
As the night drew to a close, you gathered them together, your eyes sparkling with how proud you are of them!
“You all did wonderfully tonight!” You beamed, your genuine appreciation warming their hearts. “I don’t know what I’d do without such a dedicated team!"
As they all shared a celebratory toast, the members exchanged glances once more. Perhaps it was better this way, their feelings a quiet undercurrent that strengthened their bond rather than complicating it
After all, in the whirlwind world of vtubing, some secrets were best kept just between the lines of a planner and the quiet moments before the stream went live
"you wear your hat a lot." you mutter, playing with the hat in your hand as the man next to you watched tv.
"yeah, jus' habit." he smiled tiredly, patting your head as you were cuddled next to him.
"i wanna wear it." you say sitting up with a grin, putting it on your head. it was a perfect fit which you found ironic.
"perfect!" you say, standing up on the bed and spinning around, throwing a quick pose with the hat. you hummed and sat down, looking at mysta to see what he had to say, maybe a compliment or two.
"you know what they say." he gave a shit eating grin, putting a hand on your shoulder.
"what'd they say?" you tilt your head innocently, moreover confused.
he chuckled, leaning in to your ear.
"wear the hat, ride the cowboy." he whispered with a laugh pursuing, leaning back waving his hand back and forth. "just joking." his face flushed a small bit, not that you could see it from the limited light source you had.
"haha, yeah." you fiddled with your fingers before you gulped quietly, eyeing him.
"what if i wanna ride the cowboy though?" you gave him the same shit eating grin he had. he really rubbed off on you—somewhat literally and metaphorically.
"ah—huh?" you jerked his head back at you, getting whiplash.
"you—i—what?" he stuttered, looking at you taking your shirt off immediately.
"woah, um, now? i mean, i was.. joking. but— i—" he was interrupted by probably the most aggressive kiss he's ever gotten. both of you guys fought for dominance as mysta quickly gained composure, shoving you on the bed with his hand against your throat, controlling your air supply.
"fuck, naughty aren't we?" he smirked, kissing your neck roughly, leaving hickies scattered across. he eyed your boobs, taking off your bra quickly.
"god—so beautiful." he sucked on your nipples that were exposed to the cold air, pinching the opposite side slightly.
"mmf,' fuck, fuck!" you bit your lip with a whine, mysta looking up at you with his piercing blue eyes.
"you enjoyin' this baby?" he said, trailing down to your stomach, toying with the strings of your shorts, undoing them and pulling them down.
he was surprised at the pink laced panties you had which was shown by a quiet gasp.
"like it?" now it was your turn to tease, spreading your legs slightly.
"fuck, i just need you inside of me." you shake your hips, mysta almost immediately growling.
"god, such a teasing little bitch are we?" mysta frowned, quickly undoing his pants and boxers to pull our his hard cock, shoving your legs to your shoulders.
"beg, bitch." he spat, looking at you as his cock was not even centimeters close to your entrance.
"m' not gonna beg." you shook your head, mysta's eyes narrowing.
"god you're such a fuckin' brat." he seemed irritated as he pushes into you, not even letting you grow accustomed to the feeling of how .. big he was and how full he was making you feel.
"g—od you're so big ria," you pouted as you continuously hit the headboard by how hard he was pounding into you.
"so tight, little whore." he said as he slapped your ass hard which made tears prick the end of your eyes.
"haah—oh my god," you gripped on your own thighs to keep them up, not even focusing on the pain you gave yourself by how hard your nails were squeezing.
"i'm gonna fill you up, you're gonna be a mommy, y—eah?" he said as he kept thrusting into you hardly, the bed creaking as the wood base felt like it was gonna give up. mysta held on your waist to go even harder and push further in.
"yeah, mmh, you—wan' be a daddy?" you could feel his dick twitch inside of you at the mention of it.
"oh yeah," he leaned in closely to kiss you impatiently and rushed, the kiss was almost euphoric.
"yeah? ms. rias? you like the sound of that too?" he panted, his thrusts getting sloppy as you came shortly after. he was trying to keep going but as his chest was heaving in and out he lost control—cumming almost instantly.
"ng—h, i'm fillin' you up baby." he says, thrusting in and out slowly as cum seeped out of you.
"so full, oh m—y god so much." you whined as mysta pushed down on your lower belly, watching the cum seep on the blanket.
"guess i gotta fill you up sum' more."
—
"baby, help me up." you whine, stuck and basically glued on the floor.
"huh? i didn't fuck you that hard." he seemed shock when he gave you a head and raised you up on the blanket-less bed.
"i think you broke my legs." you lay down, hand on chest as you looked up at the ceiling.
Characters : luxiem and you, but Luca and shu doesn't get dialogues
Story : you're leaving...?
Info : the reader is about 9-10 yrs old
"Hey, Mysta...?" you mumble, roused from your sleep by the noise outside.
All at once, the room falls silent as everyone's attention shifts slowly to you. Their expressions seem fraught with worry as if they're uncertain about what to do next.
"Did we wake you, (Name)? Sorry about that," Mysta apologizes, scooping you up.
You shake your head, assuring them it's fine. But you can't help wondering why they're all here. Glancing at the wall clock, you pause.
"It's almost 3 AM..." you murmur, tilting your head as you look at them.
"Well, we needed to discuss a few things. Sorry for the timing, but don't sweat it," Ike chimes in from the rear, his customary grin in place.
"Oh... Okay...," you reply with a sleepy yawn.
"Let's get you back to bed, all right?" Mysta suggests, to which you respond with a drowsy nod.
He carries you back to your room, lingering until sleep claims you once more.
-----------------✧------------------
"(Name)?" Mysta's voice gently pulls you from your slumber.
"We need to talk. Come with me for a bit," he continues, his arms scooping you up and leading you to the living room.
Still half-asleep, you respond with a sleepy hum and a nod.
"Alright," you mumble as you step into the living room, immediately sensing the tension in the air.
"What's going on?" you ask, your confusion evident.
"Well, you know I work as a detective, right?" Mysta begins cryptically.
"Yeah," you reply slowly, uncertainty tugging at you.
"This city... It's just not doing it for me anymore. I can't stay here any longer, so I've decided to move to another city," he says slowly, his words heavy with significance.
As his words sink in, your heart seems to drop.
"Wait... Does that mean I won't see you again?" you stammer, your voice wavering.
Mysta opens his mouth to respond but hesitates, his eyes reflecting a mix of emotions.
Tears begin to well up in your eyes, your voice trembling as you sniffle, "Please don't leave me."
You step towards him and embrace him tightly, your tears flowing freely.
Mysta returns the hug, holding you close. You sense the slight tremble in his embrace, matching the turmoil in your own heart.
"No, no, you'll see me again. I just can't say when," he murmurs, his voice soft.
"Promise?" you manage through your sniffles. "Promise, (Name)," he assures, his words offering a sliver of comfort.
You held onto each other, a silent understanding passing between you.
-----------------✧------------------
"Promise you'll come to visit, okay?" you plead, tugging at Mysta's shirt.
Mysta turns around, his eyes meeting yours. He crouches down a bit and pats your head gently. "I promise," he assures you.
You respond with a soft hum. "So... you're leaving today, right?"
"Yeah," Mysta confirms, his voice tinged with a touch of sadness.
"I guess I'll be seeing you again soon?" you say, a bittersweet smile on your lips.
"Yeah, you will. I'll make sure of it," Mysta replies, his voice wavering as tears gather in his eyes.
"Thank you for everything, Mysta. I know we’ll meet again soon, but I just want you to know how grateful I am for you for all this time," you say, your smile holding a touch of sadness.
"It's been my pleasure, (Name). And remember, I'll always be there with you," he reassures before standing up and giving you a final wave.
With a heavy heart, he turns away and starts walking towards the train.
As you watch him leave, your heart aches, but you hold onto the warmth of his promise and his presence that will stay with you, even in his absence.

enjoy lovelies! ♡
a little backstory:
the luxiem boys and shoto were under the impression that it was just them meeting up, with the addition of ninaur of course. however, nina had messaged you on discord after they had planned to meet up and asked if you would be down to surprise the boys since she knew how close you were with them. you agreed immediately and started making plans to travel to Paris (wink wonk).
the day finally arrives and you’re standing outside the door of the airbnb that they were at. 'badum badum badum' you can hear your racing heartbeat in your ears, you’re nervously pacing to and fro with 3 boxes of pizzas in your hands waiting for nina to open the door to let you in. you could hear their voices from outside the door, they were currently streaming. this was your first time meeting any of your co-workers in person and you were lowkey freaking out a little. suddenly you hear nina go, “oh hold on, i think our pizzas are here!” you sucked in a breath and tried to calm yourself down. she opens the door and goes, “oh, wait a minute…who’s this?” nina stands to the side to let you in and you smile, saying, “did you guys order some pizza?”. you see the boys’ eyes widen in shock and next thing you know, you’re engulfed in a big group hug.
vox
his eyes widens and he’d go, “no fucking way…”
after the group hug is over, he hugs you again tight and says, “it’s so good to meet you in person.”
when sitting on the couch together with the boys, vox would sit next to you and rest his arm behind you, on the back of the couch
vox would want to spend as much as time as he can one-on-one with you, so he plans to do lots of collabs with you. him being there for moral support while you play FNAF being one of the many collabs
when you get jumpscared, you whine at him and he coos at you saying, “aaawww…does y/n need my help? did they get jumpscared again by bonnie? aawwww…”
you’d swat at him telling him to shut up and insist that you’re fine. the smug bastard just chuckles and says, “alright then, if you say so love.”
he would be flirting and bantering with you so much during the collabs, talking about how cute you are when you blush and get flustered
your fans would go crazy and say, “(you and vox’s ship name) fans are well fed during the off collab."
fan art of vox and you will flood both your twitter feeds, vox liking as many of them as possible, even retweeting some
vox would be very helpful, constantly asking if you need help with anything especially with setting up stream or whether you need to use any of his equipment
i have a feeling that you and vox would have many late night conversations where you guys would talk about anything and everything
if you wanted to go shopping he’d be more than happy to accompany you
he’d be so patient, going to all the different shops with you and complimenting you when you go to try on clothes
vox would definitely offer to carry all your bags even though you insist that you don’t need help
when you all go to a bar, vox would definitely be the one to take care of you if you get drunk
under the influence of alcohol, vox might let it slip that he likes you but you were too drunk to register what he said
to help get you home safely, he'd princess carry you back to the airbnb
if you have a hangover the next day he’d tease you first and say with a smirk on his face, “i didn’t know you were a lightweight.”
you’d roll your eyes and tell him to shut the fuck up. at that he would chuckle and say, “ah…but you love it when i tease you.”
he would then hand you aspirin and water, then leave to go cook some soup to help you feel better
when you thank him for helping you get over your hangover, he’d just say, “of course, i’m glad i could help y/n.”
when you're leaving, vox gives you a long tight hug and speaks softly so that only you could hear him, “i loved spending time with you, let’s do this again soon. i want to spend more time with you.”
you’d rub his back and say, “it’s okay voxy, we can still hang out online. i enjoyed spending time with you too you silly demon man.”
“don’t miss me too much y/n.” cheeky bastard
mysta
mysta’s eyes widen and his jaw drops, he can’t believe that you’re right there, in person, in front of him. he feels like he’s dreaming
after the group hug is over, he would say, “you’re shorter than i imagined.”, chuckling right after
you’d punch his arm and glare at him saying, “is that how you say hi to me huh? mysta rias from nijisanji en’s luxiem.”
he’d then hug you and say, “i’m kidding, i’m kidding, it’s good to have you here y/n.”
like vox, i feel like mysta would want to spend a lot of one-on-one time with you, since well, he has a crush on you
he would try to be subtle about his intentions but we all know how that will go lmao
he would arrange for as many collabs as he can with you and gets a bit jealous when the other boys arrange multiple collabs with you too
during your collabs he’d try to make you flustered and he loves the fact that he’s able to see your reactions to his flirting in person
although, when you flirt back, mysta becomes a spluttering, stuttering mess and the fact that you’re able to see his reaction in person makes it 10 times better
you then tease him about it saying, “aaawww is little mysta all flustered?”
he’d respond and say, “w-what? noooo…i’m not, i have no idea what you’re talking about.” “you’re literally as red as a tomato right now mysta.” “that is such cap y/n, don’t believe them chat.” flustered mysta >>>
mysta would definitely make you laugh a lot during your collabs, at the end of every collab both your cheeks and stomach would be hurting
multiple clips of the both of you flirting and bantering will flood twitter, mysta would secretly bookmark all of them so that when he gets home, he can look back on them and relive those moments when he misses you. i cri, he's so precious
mysta would also be very helpful, lending you equipment when you want to stream and helping you with technical difficulties whenever they pop up
like vox, you and mysta would also have many late night talks, he’d fall even more in love with you after those talks because he feels like you understand him and that you would never judge him
mysta would constantly ask if you’d want to go out to get some food with him, secretly hoping that the others won’t tag along
he’d also set up movie nights where if you guys watch a scary film, he’d instinctively hug you and hide his face behind your shoulder
but he’ll end up holding your hand throughout the entire movie which he is secretly really happy about
when the group of you go to a bar for drinks, both of you get absolutely hammered because you both are lightweights
you guys end up giggling a whole lot on the way home, stumbling and almost falling flat on your faces multiple times, resulting in vox needing to hold on to the both of you all the way home
the next day, both of you are down with a hangover, mysta stumbles into your room and collapses on your bed saying, “urrghhh y/n i feel like shit.” you groan and respond, “uurrgghh me too.”
“can i stay in your bed with you for today? i don’t wanna be alone.” “sure mysta.”
you both end up sleeping the day away with shoto and vox bringing the both of you aspirin, water as well as your comfort foods to help with the hangover
when you're leaving, mysta comes up to you and gives you a hug, saying, "thank you for making this trip so enjoyable and fun, i'll miss you. let's meet up again soon okay?"
you hug him a little tighter and thank him for such an enjoyable trip as well, agreeing to another off collab soon
luca
luca would yell your name and be the first one to run towards you with his arms wide open. ugh i love luca sm he's so cute uweee
he would squeeze you to his booba so tight, chuckle and say, “it’s y/n! in person! POGGGGGG!”
throughout the whole trip luca would constantly be making tik tok references and doing the “AUUGGHHHHH” sound, making you laugh so much
when you guys are just hanging out in the living room, he’d say, “hey y/n, check out this tik tok.” the both of you would spend hours watching tik tok videos with each other and laughing your asses off
luca would organise as many collabs with you as possible, one of the many collabs might be It Takes Two, since the both of you have never played it before and luca thought that it’ll be a good idea to play it with you during the off collab
luca plays as cody and you play as may (or vice versa), when you guys get to the part where cody gets the nails and may gets the hammer, luca would keep shooting the nails at you/hammering you down with the hammer and laughing all while doing it. once you get free of being nailed/hammered down, you’d run after him with the hammer/nails, yelling, “LUCCCAAAA!!!”” to try and hammer/nail him down as revenge. the both of you would progress through the game super slowly because of luca and his trolling
luca finds it super cute when you run at him to try and get revenge from all the trolling that he’s doing
so prepare yourself for luca griefing you a lot for the whole duration of this game
from all the tik toks that the both of you have watched together, a repertoire of inside jokes were created and when the group does collabs together, the both of you would be giggling at jokes that only the both of you get, leaving the rest confused
when the group of you would go out for food, luca would always be down to try something he’s never eaten before. so when he tries something he likes, he’d look at you and go, “y/n, this is really good! i like it!” and you’d clap and say, “pogggg! i’m so proud of you luca!”
when the group of you goes shopping, luca would always find a way to make you laugh. luca would pick up a pair of sunglasses that look really bizarre and say, “hey y/n, you think i should get these glasses?”, you’d giggle and tell him that he looks ridiculous in those glasses
when you try on outfits and ask luca for his opinion on them, he’d always go, “y/n poggggg! yes, get them!” and when you go back into the changing room, he’d blush a little because he thinks you look amazing in everything
when the group goes out to a bar for a drink, like with mysta, both of you get absolutely hammered
luca and you would start doing random dances and giggling when the other looks stupid doing it, not caring if people were looking
vox and nina being the ones to make sure the both of you get back safely
somehow luca doesn't get a hangover, but you do, so luca brings you aspirin and a glass of water. he then says, "it's okay y/n, just pog!" you groan at that and say, "luca please."
luca would be there to help you get over your hangover, bringing more water whenever you wanted some, going out to get your favourite food and keeping you company
when you're leaving, luca engulfs you in a hug and says with a pout, "nooo y/n why're you leaving me?"
you pat him gently on the back and assure him that more off collabs will be planned in the future and that you both can still hang out online
he'd nod while still hugging you and says, "thank you for making this trip so fun y/n, i'll miss you."
"i'll miss you too luca." i'm so soft for him uweee ( 〃▽〃)
ike
ike would be one of the last few to join the group hug because he’s just so shocked that you’re literally standing right in front of him
he’d hug you again after the group hug and say, “aaahhh, it’s so good to see you y/n!”
he’d make you try caviar toast, let’s be real, mans is addicted to that stuff (≧▽≦)
ike’s social battery drains pretty quickly but he’d make sure that he’s around you, you guys don’t have to talk, he just loves being around you
ike would arrange to do multiple collabs with you, a clubhouse games 51 collab being one of the many collabs
since ike has a crush on you, flirty ike comes out to play, occasionally slipping in flirty comments whenever the chance arises
when you guys play connect 4, both of you get equally competitive so you’d both be taunting each other and trying to trick each other into making a wrong move
when ike wins and you just flop back onto the backrest of the couch feeling defeated, he sits closer to you saying, “aww you did really well y/n, you were 1 step away from beating me.”
he’d rub small circles on the back of your hand to help you feel better. i’m ascendingggggg
when you win, ike goes, “what the hecky?? i did not see that coming, good job y/n!”
both of your twitter feeds will be full of fanart of the both of you, ike likes as many as he can and retweets a lot of them too
ike would take the time to get to know you properly and by the end of the off collab he would know your likes and dislikes like the back of his hand
this might be ooc but i see you and ike taking a nap next to each other, with your head on his shoulder possibly
the rest will see it and go, “aaww”, nina will probably snap a photo secretly and send it to ike because mama knows ~
i feel like ike would ask you to accompany him to cafés for a little mid day snack or for brunch perhaps
ike and you would definitely be the ones to clean up and tidy up the airbnb, you guys would be dancing and singing along to vocaloid songs while cleaning. married life with ike brainrot go brr
when you guys go shopping, ike would be like luca, he’d compliment every item you try on and thinking about how stunning you look in every single item of clothing you try on
“y/n…you look amazing!!! definitely get that outfit and the other items of clothing that you tried earlier.”
when the group goes out to a bar to drink, i feel like ike would get tipsy and would be a little more flirty than usual but of course you’re too drunk to even realise that he’s flirting with you
i’d imagine that ike has a higher alcohol tolerance than you do so he’d end up wrapping an arm around your shoulder and vice versa, making sure that you get back safely
he would definitely take care of you the next morning when you’re nursing that hangover, bringing you the aspirin and water, then hanging out with you for the whole day, sitting beside you and reading a book, just scrolling through twitter on his phone or writing a novel, getting you whatever you need when you ask for it
when you tell him that he doesn’t have to stay with you, ike says, “i enjoy your company y/n, so don’t worry.” with that soft gentle smile (*/▽\*)
when you’re leaving, ike would give you a long hug, rubbing his thumb slightly on your back saying, “it’s been such a pleasure spending time with you y/n, i hope we can do this again sometime soon.”
“likewise ikey, i always enjoy spending time with you.” i cri, i love ike
shu
shu would also be one of the last few to join the group hug because he’s stunned and at a loss for words but he’s so excited to get to spend time with you in person
he’d give you a hug and squeeze you a lil saying, “eyyyy y/n, welcome to paris, happy to have you here!”
shu is such a memer and has such zoomer humour that you’ll be laughing tons throughout the whole trip and shu appreciates that you laugh at his zoomer jokes
shu would also want to collab a lot with you, so plan a valorant training week with him as your coach
you’ve been watching all the other hopconners and want to give valorant a shot
you’d ask shu to coach you with the pien face and hoo boy, how could shu say no to that face, you got him blushing
“u-uh yeah, i’d be happy to coach you!”
he’s secretly so happy that you asked him to teach you
during the valorant stream, shu would sit beside you and get you to do some aim training first
at first you’d struggle with flicking your crosshair to the targets’ heads so shu stands behind you with a hand resting on the back of your chair, the other on your hand (asking permission first of course) to guide you on how to flick to the dummy’s heads. this made me blush (//▽//)
you’d get the hang of it really quickly after he demonstrated to you and he’d be so proud of you saying, “eyyyy! you got it y/n!”
your chat, consisting of the yaminions and your fans couldn’t see what was happening behind the scenes but saw how patient and gentle shu was being with you. your chat would be flooded with comments saying, “awww shu and y/n are so cute!”, “i feel like i’m third wheeling.”, “shu sounds so proud of y/n, that’s so cute!”
when you guys play unranked valorant games together, shu would definitely try his best because he wants to impress you. so when you hype him up as he’s getting kills and compliment him after saying that he’s absolutely cracked at the game, his heart flutters and he gets a little flustered. he’s so cute
during all the collabs that the both of you do, shu will slip in compliments whenever he can and he’d drop a few flirty comments here and there just to see if you’d get flustered. if you do, he finds it really fricking cute
if you have any technical difficulties, shu will be there to help in a heartbeat. he ain’t called shupport for nothing
shu would ask you if you’d like to go grab food with him and if no one else asks to tag along, he’s secretly really happy because he gets to spend more time with you alone
shu would definitely ask you to watch anime with him and if you end up falling asleep on his shoulder while watching, he’ll stay there and take a nap with you because he can’t bear to move when you look so cute resting on his shoulder like that
shu likes being around you, so if you’re hanging out in the living room, he’d be there too
if he watches something funny on youtube he’d show it to you so the both of you can laugh about it together and if he finds fan art or clips posted to youtube about the both of you that he likes, he’d show them to you on his phone
when the group goes out to a bar, both you and shu would get drunk after 2-3 drinks and shu gets a little bolder when he’s drunk so he’d probably start flirting a bit more. when you flirt back, shu blushes and gets all flustered
vox and ike will help get the both of you back to the airbnb safely but the whole time, shu will be holding your hand because he wants to make sure that you’re always with him and that nothing bad happens to you on the way back. protective shu >>>
the next day, shu would somehow not get a hangover but you will and he’ll be the one taking care of you. when you give him the pien face, asking him to give you headpats and stay with you, shu’s heart melts and he pats your hair gently, lulling you back to sleep
when you’re leaving, shu gives you a big long hug where you guys sway a little side to side. you giggle and he chuckles saying, “eyyy y/n, i really enjoyed hanging out with you during this off collab, let’s arrange for more in the future okay?”
shoto would also, like luca, run towards you immediately with arms wide open, yelling your name excitedly
after the group hug, shoto would give you a hug and squeeze you tight saying, “aaaahh im so happy you’re here y/n!”
shoto is kinda like a mix of vox and shu, he has zoomer humour but makes a ton of dirty jokes too so every time shoto makes a zoomer or dirty joke, you’d look at him with a deadpan face and say, “shoto...”
i feel like shoto would do minecraft collabs with you because they’re chill and relaxing , you both would make a little village of your own and go on mining adventures. sounds so relaxing (─‿‿─)♡
i also feel like shoto would get you to play valorant with him and shu but flirting with you throughout the whole collab making poor shu a thirdwheel (≧▽≦)
“hey y/n, if you clutch this i’ll give you a kiss.” “h-huh wait, what?”
chat would be flying saying things like, “ayo???”, “shoto??”, “he said he would what??”
but you end up getting shot by the enemy because you were too flustered
shoto just chuckles and says, “maybe next time y/n.” but secretly his heart was racing
if vox is unable to be there when you plan on playing FNAF due to other collabs, shoto will sit in for him
whenever you get jumpscared, he’d get jumpscared too, occasionally (≧▽≦). but he’ll place a hand on your back, rubbing it slowly while encouraging you
“c’mon y/n you’re at 4am! it’s do-able, i believe in you!”, “YOU DID IT WOOOOO! i’m so proud of you!”
shoto would also compliment you a lot especially when he likes the outfits that you wear
“sheeesh y/n you look good!”
shoto would definitiely treat you to sushi, he’d ask, “hey y/n, would you like to go on a little sushi date with me?”
in the mornings shoto would also cook pancakes for you if you haven’t had anything to eat yet
“wait you haven’t had breakfast yet y/n? i’ll go cook up some pancakes for you real quick, stay right there.”
when you wanna go shopping, you bet shoto will ask to tag along. i wanna hc that shoto has pretty good fashion sense so he’d help pick out some outfits for you to try on. every outfit you tried on has his jaw dropping every single time. “omg, y/n you look amazing! you better get this outfit because holy crap you look so good.”
after all the shopping both of you would get boba, find a little bench to sit down, rest and chat a little
shoto would also be one to ask for you to watch anime with him, if you guys are both not in the mood to go anywhere. the both of you would just hang out in the living room of the airbnb watching anime. he’d sit right next to you with his legs crossed. after watching a few episodes you guys will just hang out, talking about what you thought about the few episodes that you’ve just watched
from all the collabs that the both of you have done, there will be lots of fan art of the both of you. shoto likes and retweets as many as he can. he would show them to you on his phone if you aren’t busy or if the both of you are just hanging out on the couch
when the group of you head out to a bar for some drinks, shoto has a higher alcohol tolerance than you do so you’d end up getting drunk after 2-3 drinks whereas he’d end off the night being just tipsy at most
you thought shoto was flirty before? meet tipsy shoto. shoto would definitely be flirting with you the whole time you guys were drinking.
“you know what? this tastes pretty good, i’ll probably want a little more later.”
“i know what i want a little more of later too.”
“SHOTO!!!”
“just kidding...unless?” ( 〃▽〃) shoto please
shoto would wrap your arm around his shoulder and he does the same to you so that you won’t stumble and fall while you guys are heading back
if you get a hangover the next day, shoto will definitely be there to help you get over your hangover. he’d be there to bring you anything you want. you want ramen? he’ll go cook it. you want sushi? he’ll go out and get it. you need more water? he’s on it. he’ll be right beside you the whole time, keeping you company
when you’re leaving, shoto gives you a long hug, rubbing your back slowly and says, “i loved spending time with you y/n, i’ll miss your presence...” pien shoto is so cute uweee
synopsis : mysta is just casually vibin in your chat and you call him a pretty boy. he likes it, maybe a little too much.
no warnings, contains fluff i guess?
author's note : kailangan kong matulog. (i need to sleep)
you've been live for about half an hour now. nothing too exciting, just a quiet little talking stream. the superchats would roll in and you'd talk to everyone about the topics that they brought up.
suddenly, a familiar name appears in your chat. it's mysta, my oh my.
"hii" he says.
at that instant, the chat starts going bonkers over mysta; greeting him, and whatnot.
"oh hey pretty boy," you call out to him with a light chuckle.
at that point, mysta suddenly enters your collab vc and starts running his mouth.
"hey- woah- oh my god hey- what'd you just call me? come on, say it again-"
"mm? you mean pretty boy? what about it?"
"nothing," he bluffs, followed by his hysterical laughter. you smile. how cute.
chat is just laughing along with him all the way.
"alright then, pretty boy."
yes. right then, right there; mysta thinks he might just pass out
content : ✒ ،، mild NSFW | reader is gn (no pronouns used) | reader has a crush, but is stupid about it | college!au | tension | reader is a bit of a brat, mysta isn't having it
notes : ✒ ،، this is just the finished portion of this fic. i meant to write the rest (which is him fucking you) but i just never did, but this portion is good enough too tbh. have fun!
also, pls dont treat ur crushes this way. LOL
minors + ageless blogs dni (u will b blocked) ;; read through content before reading more!
“Are you even listening to me?“
You look up from your notebook with your eyebrows pinched tight. You were listening for a while, but you initially figured Mysta would just taper off and finish his portion of the project. Mysta’s lips are pursed, and even with the library chatter, you can hear the incessant tapping of his feet. The growing animosity between the two of you can be cut by a butter knife at this point. As elated as you were to be paired with him, it seemed like neither of you could get through these study sessions without arguing.
It was mostly your fault with your knee-jerk reaction to act cold. By this point, it was all autopilot. And as much as you wanted to apologize —
“No. I’m doing my work, unlike you.” You reply after a beat of silence, hoping your voice stays stable. You mentally cursed yourself – why was that your initial response to him? It was stupid. You’re in college, acting like a three-year-old with a crush. You’re basically one step away from pulling his hair in the playground. “Are you done talking?”
“I–” Mysta pauses to take a deep breath. “Okay. We need to talk.”
You pause. The bitter edge of Mysta’s tone made your heart sink – maybe it was time to apologize. Come clean and explain why you were acting like a child but you bite your bottom lip and should listen. It’s easy to sit still and let him talk.
“...I should go, actually.” You say instead. Your body moves before you can help it – standing up from your chair and moving to pack your things. Mysta is quicker. He stands from his seat and blocks you from getting away. Your attempt to step back is met with the heavy, wooden table. “Mysta, move.”
“Not until you tell me what the hell your deal is.”
Your eyes scan the library floor – it wasn’t as filled with other students. Mysta insisted on climbing up to the top floors because the louder floors ruined his attention span. Still, even if there were fewer patrons – you two were still in public, even in the more secluded corners of this floor.
Mysta doesn’t budge, continuing to crowd into your space.
No, no. This can’t be happening –
Your cheeks burn. Mysta is looking down at you now, his face twisted to an annoyed sneer. He’s not the tallest person but is significantly taller than you – forcing you to tilt your head up just to meet his gaze.
“What is it? Did I say something to offend you or piss you off?” Mysta continues. His breath fans against your cheeks as you stand there, hoping to push down the incessant pounding of your heart. “I know I can be a dickhead sometimes, but you’re just…always one!”
You drop your gaze to the ground, your fingers fidgeting with your sweater sleeve. You’re conflicted – a part of you elated that Mysta is initiating…something. But a more prideful part of you wants him away.
“Why are you looking away?” Mysta clicks his tongue. “If there’s something I did wrong, you should tell me. You had no trouble spouting shit at me before – what changed now?”
“W-well…” You begin, voice pinched. You close your eyes before sucking in a shaky breath. “Can you back up first?”
A pause. Mysta wasn’t going to move anytime soon.
“...P…Please…?”
The sudden shift in the air is almost palpable when that word slipped from your mouth. Mysta’s eyes lidded – the usually bright blue irises darken as he stares down at you. A pleased smirk curves his lips – one that should piss you off; instead, it makes your face burn brighter. Even under the consistent air conditioning of the library, you feel hot under the collar. You clench your fists, hoping to ground yourself by doing so.
“Are you blushing?” He asks, incredulous. A deep chuckle slips past his lips, sending a shiver down your spine. Your jaw slacks, mouth hanging open at his reaction. He leans closer to get a better look at your face. “Oh my god, you are.”
“I-I’m not!” You protest. “Fuck off.”
“Ah, there it is. All that bite but no bark.” Mysta’s voice drops an octave, a tone you weren’t used to. He’d always been such a loudmouth; not once could you have predicted he could drop his voice like this. “You could easily punch me or push me off. I’m not that much bigger than you.”
“I’m not –” Your words get caught in your throat. “I-I don’t…”
“What is it? Do you like it when I talk to you like this?”
“We’re in…we’re in public.” You snap, hoping it would be enough to deter him, though the slight tremble in your voice wasn’t convincing enough.
“That doesn’t answer my question.” A sparkle of mischief flashes in Mysta’s eyes, and it looks like his smirk grew wider. “If all I needed to do was talk like this to get you to shut the fuck up, I would’ve done it sooner.”
“Fuck you, Mysta.”
Mysta hums. “You said it yourself – we’re in public.” He even dares to sound scandalized. As if he wasn’t the one crowding into your space. “...Unless you’re into that, of course.”
He’s absolutely shameless. You knew this from his crude jokes, but he never fails to catch you off guard.
Just as you were about to push him away and escape the suddenly stuffy library – a pair of girls pass by, chatting with one another. You were overlooked entirely, but their voices broke the brittle tension between you. It collapses all at once. Your face cools down, and the heat is much more bearable than before. Mysta shifts back and turns his attention towards the two girls – you couldn’t fully catch his expression, but you spotted the slightest glare from the side.
The two women pass without much of a glance. It wasn’t long until they were out of earshot.
Mysta sighs, irritated, before turning back to face you. The almost-predatory glint that settled over his blue eyes sent a shiver down your spine.
“Why don’t we talk more in private?” Mysta whispers against your ear, his cool breath fanning against your flushed skin. Any convictions left in your mind disappear as you nod your head.
