Scarlet Eyes

Y/n POV:

As the last member of the so called "Phantom Troupe" fell to the floor, I couldn't help but wonder if this was all worth it. Just for his time, just to get to see those deep, gray eyes everyday. But of course, he' wont get to know that.

Tucking my knife back in my belt, I pulled out my walkie-talkie. "Target acquired sir, heading back to base". I could hear his light breathing, and I couldn't help but imagining what it would feel like down my neck. "Nice one y/n, your reward as well as me will be awaiting your return".

*timeskip*

I opened the door to our base, and saw Kurapika waiting for me in his favorite leather chair, wearing the same black suit as always. "I see you made it unharmed" he said, taking a quick glance at me and proceeding to raise from his chair. He walked over to his desk, pulling out a large black suitcase. Pulling 100k out of it, he handed it to me, and for once he had a smile on his face. It took everything in me not to fall to the floor.

"A little extra for this last one. All my clans eyes have been collected, all the members have been killed. I couldn't have done it without you, y/n. Which is why saying goodbye is a whole lot harder than I thought it'd be".

I looked up at him, the shock evident in my face. "W-wait, what do you mean goodbye?! After everything we've been through over the years, your just gonna shove me out the door?! And I thought....." I looked away from him, and he could clearly see how hurt I was.

He lightly took my chin, and turned my face to look back at him, smirking as my eyes started filling with tears. "You thought we......had something? He laughed, shooing me away with his hand. "Sorry y/n, I love someone else. I appreciate the offer though, go ahead and pack your stuff, I have people I need to visit after all these years.

With the tears that were threatening to fall rolling down my face, I walked to my room and slammed the door. It was over.....all of it. Everything I wanted, the person I wanted, gone. He didn't want me, never did. I sat on the floor, legs crossed and heart drowned. I wondered why my positioning was so uncomfortable, when I suddenly remembered my knife was still in the back of my belt.

Then suddenly, I had an idea.

Kurapika POV:

I was starting to get annoyed because of the fact I couldn't close this building down until y/n took their leave. After about half an hour, I decided to check up on them.

I tried to open the door, but it was locked, and now I was really starting to get pissed. I then started banging on the door.

"OI, Y/N, ARE YOU DEAD IN THERE OR-"

My body froze as dark red started leaking from under the door.

Y/n POV:

My hand shaking, I unlocked the door and slowly pulled it open, revealing my now wounded body to the one I admired so much. He stood their frozen, not knowing what to do,  and as I couldn't stand no longer, my knees buckled as I collapsed to the floor. Kurapika ran over to me, checking my pulse, but the blood flow was too strong, the crimson puddle under me feeling more like a pond.

As I started seeing double, hearing his voice grow fainter, the last thing I saw were his eyes turn from the deep gray to vibrant scarlet, the knife laying next to my hand covered in old and fresh blood. But his eyes......

God, they were so beautiful.
