Narciso Anasui

Requested

M/n was always the one in control. His presence commanded attention, and Anasui found himself drawn to Jolyne's older brother in ways he couldn't explain. He couldn't help but be obsessed with M/n, the way he moved, the way he talked, the way he fought. He wanted to know everything about him, to be close to him, to be his equal.

Anasui had tried to get M/n's attention before, but he always seemed to be out of reach. He had never seen M/n let his guard down, never seen him show any sign of vulnerability. It frustrated him to no end, and he found himself obsessing over him more and more each day.

One night, Anasui finally worked up the courage to confess his feelings to M/n He waited until they were alone, and then he took a deep breath and said,

"I know this might sound crazy, but... I'm in love with you, M/n."

M/n didn't say anything at first. He just stared at Anasui with an unreadable expression, and Anasui could feel his heart pounding in his chest.

Finally, M/n spoke. "Anasui... You don't understand. You can't be in love with me. You don't know me."

"I do know you," Anasui said, desperate to make M/n see how he felt. "I've watched you, I've studied you, I've fought beside you. I know you better than anyone."

"You don't," M/n said, his voice flat and cold.

"You don't know anything about me. You're just a kid, Anasui. You don't understand what love really is."

"I do understand, M/n!" Anasui said, his voice rising.

"I know what love is, and I feel it for you. Please, M/n, please just give me a chance"

"I can't," M/n said, and there was finality in his voice that made Anasui's heart sink.

"I'm sorry, Anasui. I can't give you what you want"

Anasui felt tears welling up in his eyes, but he refused to let them fall. He had to be strong. He had to prove to M/n that he was worthy of his love.

"I won't give up," Anasui said, his voice shaking. "I'll show you that I'm worthy of you. I'll do whatever it takes."

"You can't change who you are, Anasui," he said. "You can't force someone to love you. It doesn't work that way."

"But... but I love you," Anasui said, his voice barely above a whisper.

"Don't. Don't love me, Anasui"

"why?.... I love you and it's not a joke, just... please, M/n"

"...can you leave me alone?" He said, and there was a hint of sadness in his voice.

Anasui didn't know how to respond. He felt like he had been punched in the gut. He had never felt so vulnerable, so exposed.

"I said I love you, M/n"

"Anasui"

Anasui nodded, and then he walked away, leaving M/n standing there alone in the darkness.
