Love hurts.. A Leopika angst story

🖤 Chapter 7 🖤

Leorio Pov

I arrive at the shop, tired and out of breath, I had ran the whole way.
Stepping inside I hear a lady say
"Welcome, is there anything I can help you with?"
"No thank you, I'm just looking for a gift" I reply heading further into the shop.

After a while I pick out the perfect gift, a Citrine infused ring. It's the most beatifull thing I have ever seen, it shines in the sun.. Just like Kurapika..

I head over to the counter to buy it.
"Wow great choice, is this for your significant other?" asks the cashier.
Suprised I answer, "No no, just for a friend, he's in the hospital.."
The lady smiles at me, handing me the now packaged ring. "You're a great friend sir, I hope your friend gets better soon"

Kurapika Pov

Why am I so tired.. I've barely moved in the past week so why do I feel like I've just run a marathon..
A small nap wouldn't hurt.. Right..?

I was awoken by a loud knock, I open my eyes to see Leorio standing at the door.
"Leorio?" I go to say, once again forgetting my suitiation.
"Kurapika.." He smiles handing me a gift bag.
I turn my head to the side, in a questioning way.
Leorio laughs slightly.
"it's for you" he chuckles

I take the bag still a little uncertain.
I open it and spot a small box sitting at the bottom.
Grabbing the box I look at Leorio confused.
"Open it" he smiles.
I do, a single tear rolls down my cheek as I see what's inside.
I take the ring out of the box and slip it onto my finger.
I turn towards Leorio and hug him, I don't usually enjoy a physical show of emotions but since I'm temporarily mute, I had to show my thanks somehow..
