Phaidei x Moonian! reader pt.8 - DISCONTINUED
Anaxa had returned to the bath-house, hoping to either find Mydei, or get a minute to himself before shit hit the fan. unfortunately.. he was met with the first option. Mydei and Phainon were at the hero's bath, but... FIGHTING??
Phainon: Mydei-! *block* *dodge* I dont think this counts as training anymore! *block* It seems your- *dodge* trying to actually fight me!
Mydei: SHUT UP AND FIGHT BACK! DELIVERER!
Phainon: Woah! *dodge* Mydei what's gotten into you!?
Anaxa shoots a equation out of his gun, which unleashes fireworks, catching phaidei off guard
Anaxa: Mydeimos! Phainon! Cease whatever this is at once!
----------------- Later, in the Vortex of Genesis
Phainon: I'm not sure why you insist we talk Aglaea, I mean, we talk all the time! If something was going on with Mydei, I'd know! He wouldn't hide things from me!
Aglaea: So you think. Phainon, when you decided to give that ring to reader, what was going through your mind?
Phainon: Well, I wanted to show them how grateful I was for their service in a personal way that would resonate well with them! A ring seemed perfect!
Aglaea: What about Mydei, he brought a ring aswell
Phainon: heh, we always did think alike!
Aglaea: Phainon, Do you like reader, is that the real reason you got the ring?
Phainon: Huh, a little sudden but besides my liking towards reader I did mean to give them that ring as some symbol of appreciation!
Aglaea stares at Phainon, first eyeing him up and down before waving her hand in a single circular motion, signaling him to rethink his words.
Phainon: What?? I'm being truthful, I mean of course I like reader, their very attractive in many ways but again, I did give them the ring to-
Aglaea breathes a sigh of relief, glad to see that Phainon finally realizes his.. obvious feelings for reader
At the sound of Mydei's voice, Aglaea mouths a good luck to Phainon before she leaves, giving them both space
Phainon: Mydei there you are! ..what's going on?
Mydei doesn't say anything at first, striding over to the fountain in the middle of the room.
Phainon: Mydei.. what's going o-
Mydei: I'm in love with you.
Phainon: ...... I'm sorry-?
Mydei: Damnit Phainon, I'm in love with you! I-I Have been for.. I-I cant even count how long! You've always been their for me! after.. everything I put you through! Every meltdown, every time I've said something harsh to you out of projection, everything! You've accepted me at my lowest! You've proven to me time and fucking time that you.. you care! Even when I kept trying to find reasons you don't.. I... Fucking.. Fuck! I love you damnit!
Phainon: I... wow... why didn't you tell me anything sooner..?
Mydei: I know we agreed to be more honest with each other.. but this.. was too personal. Too much to put into words.. I couldn't stand the thought of telling you and... being abandoned. You know of my past.. and I'm not sure of my future.. I simply couldn't tell you.. but.. seeing you with reader.. the way you got this.. sparkle in your eyes simply being near their presence.. the way you spoke of them.. it.. it hurt. Could you even begin to process, loving someone so much, and hearing them speak of another with.. such enthusiasm, such.. adoration.. it irritates you, pierces the very heart you bleed with..
Phainon chuckles, catching Mydei off guard, if not making him a lil annoyed
Phainon: Aww, Mydei~.. you were jealous of me?
Mydei slightly nods his head, looking away only for Phainon to move his hands to Mydei's cheeks, forcing their eyes to meet
Phainon: I'm not mad at you Mydeimos.. I would be upset with you for not telling me sooner but.. I understand not wanting to. This.. was something too much, even for you. I can see why you hid it for so long.. you've been through so much that it feel's easier to hide, but, at the same time, I can tell you've been trying. I'm very proud of you Mydei, even if you still back track from time to time, your not gonna change overnight, but it helps that you've been trying little by little. Love is a slippery slide, its nowhere near as easy as some make it out to be, infact its one of the hardest thing's someone can go through..
Phainon kisses Mydei on the forehead
Phainon: If you would allow me, I would love to help ease the aching pain you have.. If we take care of something first
Phainon: You like reader aswell.. don't you?
Phainon: The ring, Mydei. I knew as soon as I saw it
Mydei: I.. I do like them.. but I love you too, I felt like I had to make a choice and.. well I chose you.
Phainon: What if you don't have to choose?
Phainon: To tell you the truth, I also have feelings for reader, which.. complicates things, yes.. But, I'm sure there is something from their world about having more than one partner
Mydei: But that's not even heard of in our world, what if we end up being the first.. more-than-one person relationship
Phainon: Then we're just the first, that's all
Mydei: But.. there's no way reader would agree to something like that!
Phainon: Maybe, maybe not, wont know until we try
Phainon flashes his usual cheeky smile, trying to light up the atmosphere. All Mydei can do is just, cradle himself in Phai's arms
Mydei: If reader says no.. can we still just love each other..?
Phainon: Of course, Mydeimos, I love you
this acc made me sob s bit writing this.. *sniff*
