pairing : Evil eye x you

synopsis : you meet the spirit that has possessed your annoying friend for the first time.

You were a friend of Momo's, but a passionate hater of Jiji. He always seemed so cheerful and energetic. every girl in your school was head over heels for him, it pissed you off. How can Jiji be rainbows and sunshine 24/7? The question always danced around in your mind.

The spirits that wandered the same land as the students, but the dead always had your heart. Urban legends, ghost sightings, horror movies, and countryside Japan were your best friends. Being able to see some yokai felt something exclusive to you, until you met Momo and her other less interesting friends.

Ken, or Okarun, was almost just like you. He drowned himself in weird occult magazines, and always talked about aliens the chance he got. Yet he was anxious and introverted, which kept you from getting any closer to him.

Aira was an eyesore, always trying to flirt with Ken to try and seduce him, resulting in Momo throwing cusses at her every now and then. She had luscious pink hair, along with an undeniable charm which worked on everyone except the man she wanted, it almost made you jealous.

And.. Jiji. You knew you wouldn't like him the moment you saw him making stupid faces while cooing some nonsense at you.

The surprise was, they could see spirits aswell! The whole concept of it felt less exclusive now, but you felt comforted with the fact that you weren't alone. You and Momo grew closer and closer, to the point of her never being sighted without you on her left.

Days went by normally, until one fine day when you jogged to the school entrance to catch up with your friend before school started. She and Jiji were there as usual, but a crowd had formed around the man. A bunch of needy girls, attempting to impress the lord Jin Enjoji himself, it made you roll your eyes.

But then you saw his face, and an arrow was immediately shot through your heart.

Rainbow hoops, furrowed eyes, the usual orange locks replaced by white ones. His skin was pale, but intricate black markings gave his face an attractive charm. Did you already notice the glowing third eye? Probably not.

You gulped nervously, why the hell was he looking so hot all of a sudden? You did remember Momo rambling about how Jiji got possessed and caused chaos, yet never expected for the ghost to be so.. your type. You tapped Momo on the shoulder while she was attempting to tackle the aggravated spirit, allowing her to finally greet you.

The crowd had died down, and the three of you were on the way to your classroom. Momo froze, before she put on a sheepish smile and turned towards the spirit.

"Hey, evil eye! This is [name], my good friend."

She pointed towards you, but your eyes were focused on how his teeth gritted for absolutely no reason.

"I WILL BUTCHER YOU!!"

The evil eye yelled, getting Momo to start tackling him again. He threw his fists in the air, as if making a promise to the gods, or the devil in his case. It made you chuckle, how a guy so violent could be so intriguing.

The rest of the day passed with trying to find something warm to eat (as making the evil eye eat it would bring Jiji back), and you silently admiring the ghost. Around the last class, you and your friend had finally got the evil eye to sit down and stay quiet. Too exhausted, Momo slept through the entire period, leaving you and evil eye on the back seats alone.

"Hey, you!"

He whisper-yelled, finally realising that if he wants to talk in between class he better not get caught by the professor teaching.

You turned your gaze towards him, before letting out a slow hum. The sunlight made his already handsome face glisten even more. You couldn't move your eyes off him, but he'd never know, you were sure of that.

"I love this new game. How long do we have to keep staring at eachother?"

Itoshi Rin was a composed and disciplined guy, everyone was aware of that.

It didn't matter if he was on the field or anywhere else in the world, his expression was monotonous and so was the rest of his life out of soccer.

That was, until you came.

It began with subtle grins, a red hue on his cheeks whenever you complimented him, and the slight widening of his eyelids when he talked to you. On one precious day, he even bought you a bouquet of lavenders, as he thought roses were too cliché; but it went no further than that. He was still Itoshi Rin, still as careful and delicate with his love as possible. And though you were the opposite, you loved him for it.

Your friends would always complain, and ask you whether he even loved you or not. It was reasonable as in public he never made his relationship obvious, only you were allowed to savour his scarce softness.

Behind the walls, it was no more than gentle pecks on eachothers lips or watching movies together on his obnoxiously large television. You didn't have the courage to ask Rin for more, and he didn't seem like he wanted more, or rather hid his desires.

One saturday night, you decided that you were going to break the unspoken rule.

"Hey.. Rin?"

You turned to him, but his eyes were glued to the soccer match you both were watching beforehand.

"Yeah? What is it?"

He replied, his gaze still on one of the players on the field, with pink hair and eyes not unlike his own.

"I wanted to ask if.. i could stay over tonight."

He suddenly tensed up, his turquoise hues finally fixating themselves upon you. He tried to keep a straight face but his ears were already turning a deep red. It made you smile, realising that the boy wanted this no less than you.

"Uh.. S-Sure."

That was the first time you had heard Itoshi Rin stutter.

His bed was well kept, and his room was much cleaner than yours. You stared at the back of his hair while he looked for something comfortable that you could wear for the night.

He tossed over a pale green shirt and black shorts, both too large for you, but you weren't complaining. He left the room without a word, closing the door behind him, giving you the privacy to change your clothes. After changing and putting your old clothes into your bag, you opened the door and allowed him to come in.

Now you both were sitting on the side of the bed, no words exchanged. You rested your chin on your hand, legs crossed while Rin sat hunched over with his hands near your figure. The awkwardness was intense, you could cut it with a knife.

But just as you were about deem the night as an embarrassment, he scooted over, his arm now around your waist, and ears beaming as red as ever. And you wouldn't lie, your cheeks were red too. Rin was holding your waist for the first time ever.

The waist-holding unfolded into a bundle of shared kisses, and then laying down together on his bed. But it felt as if it ended there, both of you had enough distance to fill another person in between, and Rin was staring at the lamp on the right corner of his room, as if deciding what to do next.

You on the other hand, was fidgeting with your hands whilst cursing at yourself for letting the romantic moment end. You say upright, knees touching your chest, the movement ruined the perfect bedsheet by giving it wrinkles but it was too subtle for you to notice. Your gaze went towards him and then back to your knees, towards the man again and then back to your knees, towards your boyfri-

"Can we cuddle?"

Rin requested, face straight and body turned towards you. One hand below the side of his head and the other resting on his white sheets, you couldn't tell if he was flustered anymore, but you sure were.

"Oh! Alright!!"

You exclaimed. the tension faded away once again as you engulfed yourself into his embrace, he rest his head over yours as he traced circles on your back, you buried your face in his chest, avoiding eye contact at all costs.

You don't remember much after that, but you're sure you fell asleep in his arms.
