Dragon knight (Farewell...)

In Ignihyde, more precisely in Idia's room, Ortho was trying to convince his brother to go to the party "Idia? Hey... Hey, come on! We were both invited. You should come with me to Lilia Vanrouge's farewell party! You saw him a lot at housewarden meetings, right?"

"Not really. We're not friends or anything. He's a friend of a... friend. We're like, acquaintances at best. What would I even do if I went? It's not like we have any fond memories together. No reason to be sad that he's leaving... And besides, what about me?! I'm still a complete wreck from when Muscle Red retired from online gaming yesterday! And Y/n hasn't replied nor talked to me in days! My only emotional support in this school full of crazy people..." Idia sobbed.

"Oh... Right, Muscle Red quit gaming. And Y/n has been offline all week. Y/n had texted before going silent "I'll taking some time alone and won't be able to talk nor play during this. It's not you, it's me... Wait, that sounds bad. I'm just working on something, I still love you so please don't worry."

"Muscle red's got some IRL stuff going on. And he also just up and deleted the Magicam account he used for gaming... I get that I can't just demand Y/n's attention whenever but I'm sure she would have helped me through this better. We gamed together for over two years, after all, and he was the only person I DMed pretty much every day!"

"I am sure Nii-sama will be back before you even know it."

"But what if he's gone too?" Ida sniffed "All those days are over, just like that. I can't... This is just the worst... I'll never make another friend again..."

"You know, Nii-sama could become more than just your friend if you decided to actually confess your feelings too him."

"No way! No way!" Idia flushed and hid under the covers "There's no way she would even reciprocate my feelings. Plus, this is like one of those isekai stories where the MC goes back to their world and leaves everyone behind. I won't ever see him again anyway and confessing would only ruin our friendship and make things even worse and more hurtful. Are we even friends still? Have we ever been friends? Maybe he was just taking pity on me and doesn't actually like me. Right. Y/n is so awesome, beautiful, strong, smart and powerful; plus, everyone likes her. How could she ever like someone like me? What was I even thinking? Of course she doesn't like me. No way it'd be fun to hang out with an antisocial, introverted nerd like me."

Ortho sighed softly as he listened to his brother ramble, mumble, sob and sigh. He walked towards a drawer and pulled out a box with engraved on it *Y/n επείγον*. He placed his finger on the lock and the letters glowed before the box opened. He pulled out the headphones inside and walked back towards Idia.

"I can't. I won't be able to drag myself out of this bed for like, 10,000 years."

Ortho pulled on the blanket and put the headphones over Idia's ears before leaving.

Idia paused as he listened to Y/n's voice through the headphones.

This is a poem for someone that I love. He's really handsome and smart but he's insecure. He's into anime, games and just thinks he's an antisocial unlovable nerd. But I love all the times I spend with him, watching stuff, discussing or playing together. He's one of the only person I can relax and be calm around. He sees me as perfect but I don't think I am and I really want him to know that whatever bad things he thinks about himself, I'll love and care for every single part of him. He's one of the most important people in my life.

In quiet corners, where time softly slows,
Our world comes alive, as the connection grows.
Through glowing screens, where stories unfold,
Our laughter and musings turn moments to gold.

You call yourself a shadow in the light,
A solitary figure in the endless night.
Yet, within your eyes, a fire burns bright,
A spark of brilliance, an eternal fight.
