What Ties Us Together

Love

She clutches her pillow tightly, the thought of the possibility that she might be in love with the god unnerves her greatly. Was there a chance for the two to be together, under the conditions that they were?

She didn't really expect him to show up, nor did she really want him to. This really was a inconvenient moment.

Yet, he had. He had opened her bedroom door, slowly. Yato had such uncanny timing.

The moment he sees the tears spill down her cheeks, he's by her side. How does he react to this?

It was only moments, before he finally takes her in his arms. He moves in right beside her, positioning himself on the bed.

"..Hiyori? What's wrong..?"

"Y-Yato.... I think I'm in love with you, and I'm terrified..." Hiyori sobs, in response.

She buries her face into his chest, and he only holds her tighter, muttering words of comfort to the brunette.

"Hiyori. Don't be scared, please. I love you too, it's alright...."

"I won't let anything take you away..." He assures.

And so he continues to hold her, without a single intention of letting her go.
