cerulean eyes; (1) | mashitess.
part 1 out of 3 for @ardensfides !  happy halloween & beginning of november.
Tessa Ardere, a bright appearance in your dull fucking life.Â
The life as a cop is something you always desired as a kid, but how did the tables turned ever since that one accident? No, not even that, even before that. The naive kidâs dreams were destroyed when you joined the force and the cruel reality slapped you in the face harder than anything else. As they say, life fucks you hard and youâre not an exception. You wish you were, but you bite the bullet and go forward without looking back. Police force showed you that order can be just as corrupt as everyone else, but by now youâre a cynical bastard who does what he wants, says what he wants, and is doing his job damn well. Youâre proud, you could live like this until the day you die.Â
But then life decided to add something else. A woman who seemed so confident in her act that you almost let her escape if not for the rules and order that you are working for. Even in this dark alley is filled with smoke, sex, and drugs - you are a police officer, you are someone who still saves lives and doesnât want to tarnish your partnerâs name. The woman is blonde-haired and with bright eyes, you wonder if sheâs a foreigner with how she speaks but the look she gives you makes you laugh as you handcuff her to the car. Youâre coy, all too proud of yourself but also notice the way her eyes shine and sparkle.Â
Little did you know how much this little encounter will mean to you later.Â
Fast forward, your meeting with this woman changed your whole life. Perspective on it, specifically. Youâve devoted your life to protecting other people. But you also remember just how brash and harsh you are, speaking with such sardonic tone to every single person you meet. Tessa is shocked by the way you speak to others, sometimes all too expressive for your eye but you never tone it down. You are you and she seems to stay despite that. How curious. Other women wouldâve left so fast. Every single female officer who worked with you before wouldâve dropped out the next day, your speech and your unapologetic bastard behavior.Â
But Tessa Ardere stays. And youâre kind of glad that she does while telling you about the monsters concealed behind a human mask. It makes you understand that so many things youâve done were childâs play and it hurt your pride. You know working for the current force will lead nowhere. People will die. Youâre an asshole, but you cannot let others die and perhaps thatâs what Ardere feels as well while you work with witnesses and actually do your legitimate job. For a moment, you let your eyes remain on the back of the blonde-haired huntress. She makes you wonder why and when you became so attracted to her. Sheâs beautiful, she speaks back, but then you witnessed her blush once and something inside you clicked. The exposure of her true naivete and sweetness made you want to ruin her.Â
Itâs the same as before, you expected her to either push you away or spend the night and then slap you in the face for mistreating her. You had a dirty mouth, you were ruthless and just a tad bit sadistic. Well, a tad bit. The bites and the hickeys, the passionate fuck. You really expect her to hate you the next day like any other woman before. When you wake up the next day, sheâs lying next to you. The memories of your first night together leaves a satisfied sensation in your body. You get up but she wakes up right after, brightly blushing and staring at you like a deer in headlights. Fuck, the way she looked at you previous night was making you feel a strong urge to have her the second time just to watch how the image of a cold and calm huntress would melt into that of an innocent sheep. It makes you smirk and you only notice it when she starts to stutter while saying good morning.Â
You then learn that you were glad she never slapped you like other women did while calling you a heartless bastard. You are a bastard, you agree, but itâs nice to wake up to just breakfast and coffee instead of screams that youâll have to ignore or just kick a person out.Â
But she stays. And you hope sheâll stay for much longer after spending so much time together. You get attached and itâs strange, but you allow it. The longer you are together, the more your daily life intertwines and you actually think that maybe itâs not that bad and Tessa might be the one your partner spoke of years ago when he spoke of his lover. A lover, huh? Rich coming from you, right? When you feel more possessive of these cerulean eyes. Her lips are yours, her eyes only look at you, and her body and soul will be only yours. It makes you want to have her all to yourself.Â
Youâre not romantic, youâre not nice, youâre not sweet. You hate those sickly sweet romantic tropes. They make you gag.Â
But she stays. She never expects you to be like that.Â
Tessa Ardere stays while looking at you with those bright eyes, giving you shy or bright smiles.
You think youâve got her in your grasp, you relax for one moment and thenâŚ
You lost her, but youâre bitter. Youâre angry and youâre bitter. She left you, you say to yourself, she abandoned you. You donât look at this situation rationally, the emotions collide like ships against the oceanâs storm. You are filled with rage, you broke several cups that you were drinking from with her before. Your place is a mess, you want to scream as if your previous screaming with her has not happened.Â
You say to yourself she left and abandoned you without hearing you out.
But did you also hear her out, Mashita Satoru?
Or did you just allow your pride and your anger to become important than the shine of those cerulean eyes?
