You all sat at the dining table, silently munching on the food your mother had prepared. The sounds of utensils hitting against the plates echoed across the room.
Panic washed over you, you knew one of your family members would eventually make a comment about you.
Not today, please. You thought to yourself.
You tried to ease the intensity of your shaking hands, and avoided looking up. Akito, who sat beside you, caught onto how you’ve been acting. Ever since the two of you arrived at your family’s home, you were awfully quiet. He brushed it off since he thought it was just you nervous about him meeting your family, but still kept close attention to how you were.
“So, do tell how you managed to date someone so out of your league” your brother teased.
“Yeah, you’re so unorganized, and you look so pathetic when next to someone who clearly has their things set straight.” Your mother added on.
You dropped the utensil that was in your hand and just sat there, trembling helplessly knowing you couldn’t talk back to them, as you knew that would only result in them throwing more insults at you.
“Excuse you?” A voice announced, and you knew exactly who it was. You could tell just from his tone that he was furious.
“What? You don’t agree?” Your mother said with a cocky grin on her face.
“The hell is wrong with you?” Akito argued. His fist hit the table. You winced from the sudden bang that rattled the table, the plates and silverware clanging from the force serving as another ringing in your ear.
“I’d like to know if you’re better than them; if you’ve actually gone farther than they have in your life. Do you actually think you can achieve something from doing shit like this?
Your mother stood in shock, still trying to register what he said while her grin faded.
“And you have the nerve to call them pathetic. So how ‘bout this, shut your mouth.” The boy added.
You felt a gentle tap on your shoulder,
“C’mon, let’s get out of here.”
You both left the gathering, and just walked together back to his home. Hand in hand, and with silence.
“Why didn’t you say something back to them?” He questioned, fury hinted in his words.
You didn’t respond. You simply just continued walking while staring at the ground.
Akito comes to a sudden halt. Which had caused you to pause as well.
“Answer me, please.” He added, while turning towards you.
At this point, he was desperate for a response. He didn’t understand why you didn’t defend yourself.
You couldn’t bring yourself to lock eyes with him. The swirling feeling of shame and embarrassment washed over you as you recalled the events that happened not too long ago. The stinging in your eyes warned you about the tears that had welled up, threatening to spill.
“I’m just scared, Akito” you muttered out, voice cracking.
“My family always liked ruining people’s view of me, throwing around things I've never said or done. I didn’t want you to fall for that.”
He couldn’t really figure out a way to respond. But nonetheless, he took some time for himself to recollect his thoughts.
“Look, you don’t seem like the kind of person to do any harm to other people. Even if you parents told me some bs like that, I wouldn't believe it.”
You smiled from the reassurance. Overwhelmed with your current emotions, you couldn’t help but cry, while embracing Akito in a hug.
-anger builds up as they progress w/ the comments
-literally just gets up and leaves with you
-doesnt feel like wasting his time on something so stupid since most of the time its projecting
-not leaving ur side for the rest of the night
“So you’re dating someone who actually has decent grades? Maybe you’re using him for your own benefits. How selfish!”
“No, Mom. It’s not like that at all!
Why won’t you listen to me?!”
This only caused your mother to fume at your sudden 'attitude', raising her voice as she continued to accuse you of other matters at hand. The constant yelling filled the dining room, ruining the atmosphere of a peaceful dinner you'd hoped to have.
Toya had been silently watching this argument go on for the past few minutes. Frustration with your mothers accusations slowly crept up on him. He figured the only way out of this was to just.. leave. He didn’t appreciate how cruel your mother was to you.
He rose from his chair, and held your hand with a gentle, yet firm grip. When you looked up towards him, he announced,
“I appreciate the gesture of inviting us over, but I think I've heard enough.
The setting sun illuminates toya's darkened room as you lay there within his arms; in a comfortable silence. It was peaceful and calm, much different from the situation that had happened before. You felt oddly drained from spending all your energy arguing with your mom so you drift in and out of sleep, clinging onto consciousness.
Toya had recognized your current state, and had thought it’d be best for you to stray into slumber. He wants you to forget the worries of your mother, and once you regain your energy, he will continue to remind you that he knows you're not what your mother accuses you about.
With a gentle smile he begins to hum a small tune that drifts throughout his room while stroking your hair in a loving manner.
Eventually, the boy heard your soft breathing, realizing you had finally fallen asleep.
-kinda like akito but much calmer abt it
-if u walk out he’ll excuse himself but also call them out before he leaves
-will also roast the living hell out of them tbh
-just walks u to his home holding ur hand like the world is ending
The evening with your family had been going well. Everyone got along with Rui, cracking jokes once in a while, and occasional chit-chat about interests they shared.
“Can you throw this out, y/n?” Your mother asked, her tone hinting it was more of a demand rather than a favor.
“Not right now ma, could I do it when I finish my food?”
“It’s a simple task! Why can’t you do it now?! You good-for-nothing-“
“If it’s so simple, then do it yourself,” The boy retorted.
“You said it was a simple task, correct? I think you’re more than capable of doing it yourself.” Rui added, his signature cheeky grin sat upon his face.
This situation with your mother occurs often, and you didn’t feel like going over this for the 100th time. You got up from your chair, and without a word, you left the dining room and eventually left the house.
Rui wasn’t very pleased with your mother’s cruel way of treating you.
“If you’ll excuse me, I'll be leaving now.”
The both of you walked back to Rui’s place, although your mind wandered elsewhere, disregarding the boy who eyed you concerned. Your grip on his hand tightens due to your tense state, but that was quickly broken when you felt his thumb tracing small circles on your hand as an act of comfort. You glanced at him to only be met with his soft smile.
