Lack Updates

The title says it all..
Yes I know I haven't update since the last chapter. The reason is pretty simple. I got my hands full on many things, I have final exam coming up, and yeah, the writer block. Many ideas for next project, but they just don't fit. Please pardon me and my laziness..

Destiny (Leslie Withers x Reader) - Last Chapter

I take a glance at the clock. Ah, it almost time to pick (your name) up. Better go now so she doesn’t have to wait. I grab my jacket and the car keys. I go out to the terrace and see Mrs. Wisconsin waves to me. “Ah, good evening Mrs. Wisconsin.” I approached her. “Good evening, Leslie. Going to pick (your name) up? Be careful.” “I will, ma’am.” I answered her and then get in the car. Mrs. Wisconsin is our neighbor. She and her husband are very kind, they treat us like their own grandchildren. I like to visit them sometimes when I’m not coming with (your name) to work, and I always ask her to teach me how to bake. But (your name) never knows. I intend to surprise her once I’m good enough. [I’m on my way] I text (your name) before I start the car.

Ten minutes of driving and I’m arrived at the hospital. I parked the car and walking to the lobby. Where is she? She always waits for me outside the lobby. Oh, there she is chatting with Nurse Tatiana. Probably didn’t even see my message. I walk into the lobby, approaching her. But I stop when I heard their conversation. They’re talking about me. I hide myself behind the pillar next to them. “Does he work?” Nurse Tatiana asked. Here we go again. Can people just stay quiet and mind their own businesses? They don’t even know what I’m doing. Do they even have the prove that I just slacking off, spending (your name)’s money?

“But you spend all your salary on him, (your name)! What if he can’t work? You plan to live with him forever? Your salary is not enough to support you both forever!” Nurse Tatiana words hurt me. Feels like I’m being bombarded with thousands of swords that won’t stop stabbing, ripping my body even though I scream my lungs out, begging it to stop. That’s it. I’m outta here. I stormed out of the lobby. I stop a hospital staff and give the car key to him, asking him to give that key to (your name) 20 minutes after I’m gone. I take the last bus to my favorite bookshop. I don’t wanna go home right now. I can’t hide these feelings from (your name). She knows me too well.

I’m tired being judged. It’s not like that I don’t want to work. Well, I fucking want to, but I don’t have any special skill yet. I’m in the process to find what my best skill is. And I know for sure no one wants to hire someone as ordinary as me. Not until I find my best skill. Not so long, I arrived at the bookshop. The door bell clang as I open the door. “Hey, Leslie. What’s up with that face? Should I lend you my flatiron to straighten your face?” the shop owner joke welcomes me. “Ha ha very funny, Seb.” I answered him with a pout. “Wow, what a lousy mood you’re in. What happened? Got into a fight with your girl?” Sebastian asked me while arranging the books. “Nah, she’s the one who got into a fight because of me.” “Whoa, she finds out you’re cheating?” Sebastian pretended to be surprised. “What the hell, Seb? There’s no way I’d cheat on her.” I said as I walking out of the shop. Sebastian laughs, “Easy there, lion. Now let me close the shop and we’re going somewhere else to talk.” said Sebastian, then he locked the door and we’re going to a bar.

Sebastian and I got close because I often come to buy books from his shop. He’s the only person who knew about my past, beside (your name). I can’t trust him at first, not to people in general, but he always opened up to me. Whenever there are only us, he would tell me about his problems with his wife or his shop, almost everything. He trusted me, and I believed I can trust him. Finally, I told him about myself. He always thought I was different, but he only waits till I told him myself. Now that he knew that I am different, he still respects me and never underestimates me. He’s like a brother, or maybe a father for me.

I told him all when we arrived at the bar. “So that’s what happened.” Sebastian stated, touching his chin. “But you’re running away, don’t you think you’re being a coward?” he pointed to me. “I know it is, but I can’t let her know if I heard them. I don’t wanna make her sad anymore. If I’m home now, she’ll find out right away. She just knows me too well..” I sighed, then resting my head on the table. “Seb.. Can I work at your shop?” I asked him without even lift my head. “No.” “God, you’re so cruel.” “You’ll waste your time working in a bookshop, Leslie. You can’t find your best skill if you only sitting there, reading books waiting for customers.” Sebastian lectured me, and then he sighed. “Come on, I lend you a room for tonight. Tomorrow you must go back, (your name) must be worried.”

So here I am, in Sebastian’s house, just staring at his spare bedroom ceiling. I can’t sleep without (your name) in my arms. I guess I’ve been too used to sleep while hugging her. Now instead of having nightmares, I get insomniac. I remember Sebastian’s words.

“Leslie, you have a really nice girl with you. She’s a keeper, no doubt about it. Women these days, they’re after your money, but not (your name). She’s willing to suffer with you and reach the success together with you. She loves you with all her heart. You love her too, don’t you? Never let her go or you will regret it forever.”

Even though Sebastian didn’t say that, I would never let her go. I’m well aware that she’s the one (probably the only one) who cares so much about me. Even Doctor Jimenez or Doctor Collins who took care of me before her, never care about me this much.  (your name).. I wonder what she is doing right now. She’s probably asleep, or maybe she cries? Of course she cries herself to sleep, I also know her well. I chuckled at myself. Look at me, I don’t want to make her sad, but with me runaway like now, I make her even sadder. How pathetic. I can’t help but think about Nurse Tatiana and (your name). I knew (your name) would clearly defend me. (your name) never forced me to work, she didn’t even ask me to. But I can’t blame Nurse Tatiana, she must be worried about (your name).. But I guess everyone thinks that I only utilize her, and I’m not worthy to have (your name). Well, it hurts me, but it makes sense since I’m like this. I shake my head, trying to erase the negative thinking. Now I have to sleep, and tomorrow I must thank Sebastian for letting me stay.

I get up early on the next day. I make the bed and go out from the room to find Sebastian and his wife getting ready for breakfast. “Oh, you wake up early. Have a seat, the breakfast almost ready.” said Sebastian. After the three of us had breakfast, I’m getting ready to go back home. “Thank you for letting me stay.” I said to Sebastian and his wife. “No problem, Leslie. I hope everything go well with your girl.” said Sebastian’s wife. “Take care.” Sebastian waved. I waved back to them and take the bus to my house. Instead of going home, I go to Mrs. Wisconsin house. I want to make her a cake or something to show my apology.

And now, I’m in Mrs. Wisconsin house, baking a brownie for her. I’m getting better on this that Mrs. Wisconsin asks me to help her in her bakery. I agree with all my might. Working in a bakery would be fun. Well, my salary isn’t as big as (your name)’s, but at least I can help her support our lives. I can’t wait to tell her. So, after the brownie done, I quickly ask for leave and thank Mrs. Wisconsin, and then I run to my house. I stop right in front of the door. Oops. I have to prepare myself to get scolded. I unlock the door and open it slowly. The house is so quiet. Maybe (your name) hasn’t wake up yet, it’s her day off anyway. And she must be tired from crying all night. I put the brownie on the table.

“Leslie?” (your name) called me. She just woke up, and wow, she’s a mess. Her eyes are red from crying. Her hair all messed up. But she’s still pretty, though. She comes toward me and I’m expecting to be hugged. But she slaps me. My eyes widened in surprise. “Leslie you idiot!!” tears welled up in her eyes. “Don’t you know I searched high and low for you?! You make everyone worried! Are you happy now?! You stupid brat!!” She’s sobbing then buries her face in my chest. I immediately hug her. She hugs me back. “I.. I’m so worried about you.. *sobs* where have you been.. *sobs* why you runaway.. ” “Hush hush now.. Sorry, honey.. I’m sorry..” I petted her hair. “I hate you.. *sobs* Stupid Leslie.. *sobs*” I pulled her away, “Really? But I love you, (your name). I’m so sad, I thought you love me too.” I acted sad, “Too bad I can’t kiss you anymore.. so that means I can kiss another girl, can’t I? ” “No! You can only kiss me!” “Eh? But you said you hate me, I can’t kiss someone who hates me, right?” She cries even louder. “Hwaa I hate you!” she bangs her fist to my chest. I laughed at her reaction. Spoiled (your name) is too cute to handle. Then I cupped her cheeks and kiss her. “How can you believe my joke? I kiss you, and only you.” I wiped her tears with my thumbs.

“Mmm, it’s really good!” (your name) eats my brownie happily. “Of course it is, I’m the one who baked it.” I said proudly. “Good job! Who taught you?” said (your name), picking another slice. “Mrs. Wisconsin taught me. I would come to her house sometimes and asked her to teach me.” “Mm-hm.” (your name) answered randomly, still munching the brownie. “Are you hungry or what?” I asked her, astonished. She chuckled. “Don’t know if I’m hungry or fond it, but I’m somewhere in that zone~” she sings. I giggled and ruffled her already messy hair.

Then I remembered there’s good news that I want her to know. “Hey honey? Can I say something?” She looks confused, “O..kay? I’m all ears.” “You know, Mrs. Wisconsin has a bakery, and since I’m already good at baking, she wants me to help her. I said yes, so starting from Monday, I’ll work at her bakery.” “It’s because you heard my conversation with Nurse Tatiana yesterday, isn’t it? Leslie, you don’t have to do it if you’re not ready yet..” I cut her words before she could finish. “No, (your name), I’ve been looking for a job for months, really. But you know, no one would hire me if I don’t have any special skill, right? I tried to do many things when you’re at work, and I’m really interested in food. Plus, I can ask Mrs. Wisconsin to teach me. I would like to open a café someday. It’s a good plan, isn’t it?” I explained to her. “I know I’m not worthy of you. You’re so pretty, kind and all that, and I’m so lucky to have you. That’s why I try hard to keep up with you, so people won’t judge me easily, and you won’t be sad anymore.” I stroked her cheeks. “That’s how much I love you.” I smiled. “I am so proud of you.” she said as she puts her arms around my neck and kisses me.

“Konna boku demo tsuyoku nareru yo, tada kimi ga soba ni iru dake de – Even someone like me can be stronger, with just having you by my side

Dakara kimi ga kujikesou na toki wa, boku ga sobani itain da – that’s why when you feel down, I want to be by your side”

Finally everything’s going well. I worked hard at Mrs. Wisconsin bakery and saved up to open my own café. Relationship with (your name) always fun and we’re even closer than before. She got jealous sometimes because I’m unexpectedly popular around girls. But I only get my eyes for this lovely girl. I really can’t find other women as perfect as (your name). So after I had enough money, I buy her a ring and proposed her. Her reaction was unbelievable. “You don’t have to propose me, I’m your wife already, we just need to do the ceremony.” That was she said. This girl.. such a pain in the ass. I twitched my eyebrows. She laughed hard at my expression and said, “Oh, sweetie. Your face, ahaha so cute! I’m sorry! I’m just teasing you!” then she reached her hand to me. “Yes, I will.” then I put a ring on her finger.

The End

The end is coming.. just like I said..
But I will make some spin offs, still stuck with Leslie. I'm not satisfied yet to make him happy, plus, I've got the ideas.
Also, there's already a rival for me, someone who makes Leslie fanfics. Leslie x OC though. I personally won't read anything x OC.
I mean, why would I want to imagine Leslie with other girl than me? I make/read fanfics because I want to imagine myself with my favorite character, not with others. But it just my opinion, people have their own likes and dislikes, right?

Runaway (Leslie Withers x Reader) - Chapter 5

“LESLIE, GET OUT!” I reflex trying to cover my body with my hands. Then he slams the door in shock. I’m panting because of the loud scream I did. I continue my shower in rush, thinking hard how will I face him after this. Too bad I have a day off, I can’t run away from him.

Damn it! What face should I make? It’s the first day and Doctor Collins words already come true? I frustrated as I put my clothes on. What the heck should I say to him? I hope Doctor Jimenez hasn’t taught him about these stuffs yet. Tch! If Doctor Collins knows about this, he’ll surely cheering, and embarrassing me more. I can’t let him knows, never. I should tell Leslie after this.

I grip the door knob. I sighed hard and then open the door, only to see Leslie sits in my bed, hunching over his body and holding his head. Uh-oh. This is not good. He’s totally panicked. I shouldn’t scream, but how couldn’t I? I walk toward him and then I kneel right in front of him. “Leslie..” I called his name softly as I cupped his face. “I’m sorry.. I’m sorry.. I’m sorry..” Leslie said in fear. Damn, what have I done? He must be really scared, I never yelled at him before. “Shh.. It’s okay, honey.. It’s okay.. It’s not your fault..” I hug him. “I’m sorry.. (your name).. I’m sorry..” Leslie’s voice shaking. “No, honey.. It’s not your fault.. I’m sorry I yelled at you, I’m surprised, I didn’t mean to. I’m sorry I make you scared, Leslie..” I tighten my hug. Then Leslie hugs me back, “(your name).. Don’t hate me..” and he buried his face in my neck. “Of course not, you’re my dearest boyfriend, remember?” I said as I pull him away from the hug. I stroke his cheeks, and kiss his forehead. “Go take a shower. And get down for breakfast, okay?” He nods and gives me a peck on my lips.

I prepare for breakfast soon after I prepared Leslie’s clothes. I start to think what we should do after breakfast. I don’t have somewhere that I want to go to, I don’t even want to go out at all. Since Doctor Collins gives me a week off, I really want to spend all day at home. It’s already fall and it’s starting to get cold outside, what a perfect weather to stay at home and slacking off. I live in the hospital since I take care of Leslie, so staying at home is a luxurious experience. Doctor Collins promised me that I would have a better job when I get to work later, rather than getting stuck with one patient like before. Of course I would, if I’m at the hospital all the time, who will take care of Leslie?

While I’m frying the pancakes, suddenly Leslie puts his arms around my waist. He rests his chin on my shoulder, looking what I’m doing “Smells good, (your name).” “You surprised me, Leslie. How’s your sleep last night?” I still focus my gaze at the frying pan. “I can’t sleep without you around. I’m tired having nightmares. Can I just sleep with you from now on?” said Leslie in sulking tone. I chuckled, “Yeah, yeah, you spoiled boy.” Leslie snuggles his head on my neck. I giggled, “Hey stop it Leslie, it tickles.” He kisses my cheek and walks to the table, waiting for the breakfast.

After breakfast, he helps me washing the dishes. “Do you want to go somewhere, Leslie?” I asked him as I lather the dishes. He thinks for a while. “I don’t know, I don’t feel like doing anything today.” He said as he rinses the dishes. “Good, good, good. Neither do I.” I dry my hands. “But doing nothing is also boring..” “Then we can just cuddle up!” He said happily. Oh, what an adorable person he is. “Not until you done with the dishes~” I teased him. “Roger!” and he starts to rinse the dishes quickly.

We spend the whole week watching anime and reading some comics. Leslie loves dark anime, like a lot. It’s strange, remembering that he used to had nightmares and awful treatment from the nurses. I expected him to be a little bit traumatized by watching those anime, but he didn’t. Well, as long as he happy, I’m not gonna complain. Doctor Collins and Doctor Jimenez came to visit us. Of course I made sure Leslie didn’t say anything about that bathroom incident, or else he’s prohibited to kiss me. A perfect threat, since he really likes to kiss me. We also visited our neighbor, a lovely old couple. They were very kind to us, they treated us like their own grandchildren.

As people say, “time flew fast when you’re having fun”. I do have a lot of fun living with Leslie. There’s always something about him that could make me laugh. I can’t get bored living with him. And without realizing it, it’s already winter. Winter seems to be Leslie’s favorite season. Since winter is cold, even inside the house, Leslie could clings to me all the time. For Leslie, as long as he has me in his arms, everything will be fine. He’s too adorable. So far so good, we never really fight. Our only fight was like who will sleep on which side of the bed or when he munches the food that I still prepared. Yeah, all those kind of playful fights. Leslie had gained some weights by the way, now he looks fresh and healthier. He is actually a really handsome man, to be honest. He also cheerful and has good sense of humor. But it’s hidden before.

Leslie will always come with me to work, but sometimes he prefers to stay at home, reading books. Sometimes he would go to the garden or library near our house. He said sometimes he would also visit our neighbors to help them out. He’s loved by people around him. He also likes to go to the bookstore and buys lot of books. I haven’t got the chance to read them all due to my work. He can drive now, so when he decided to stay home, he’ll drive me to work and picks me up after.

One morning, I’m getting ready to go to work while Leslie lying on the bed, reading a book. “You’re not coming, Leslie?” I said as I buttoned my shirt. “Nope, I really want to finish this book.” He answered without taking his eyes off the book. “Oh, okay..” I replied as I check myself out on the mirror. There I see Leslie peeking from up his book and then he read again. I grinned and turn over to face him. I come to the bed, crawling on top of him. Then I snatch the book away from him. “You think I didn’t know that you’re peeking? You little pervert.” I poked his chin. “But you like it, don’t you?” he said as he puts his arms around me. “How could you change from a sweet innocent man to a flirty devil, huh?” I giggled. “Let’s just say I’m natural at this.” He gave me a peck. “So.. wanna make love?” I gasped, “How do you know about that stuff?” “I read it on a book. It seems fun and I’m pretty excited to try it.”

Oh. My. God. I am happy he likes to read so he gains more knowledge, but like this? I do want to do it with Leslie, but what the hell. I’m not ready yet! I still enjoy the sweet innocent Leslie, I don’t expect he asks for it any time soon. “If you don’t say it so lightly, it will be more exciting.” I said and tried to get up, but he pinned me down. “Leslie, I’m gonna late for work!” I successfully escaped and tidied my clothes. But then Leslie catches me from behind. “So be it. Doctor Collins will understand. Beside, seeing you refuse like that makes me more excited.” Leslie gripped my wrists. He kisses my neck, tracing it with his tongue. I let out a soft moan. “Uh, stop it, Leslie..” I’m getting weak. He keeps planting more kisses to my neck. So it’s time to do it, ready or not. I just have to accept it, I don’t have the energy to refuse. His kisses make me go limp. It’s my fault after all. Just when I thought about that, Leslie stops and embraces me. “I’m sorry (your name).. I just miss you so much. You’re coming home late and tired, and I don’t have the chance to be with you.. I’m lonely. I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have done it..” I knew it. I knew he’s lonely, but I can’t help it. I come home late and tired, I have to prepare for dinner and I have to do the house chores. Though Leslie helps me doing house chores, it still exhausts me. “I know, honey.. I’m sorry I’ve been busy lately, I will make it up to you later on holiday, okay?” I caressed his hand. “Now, if you please, carry me to work, I’m really late.” Then he hurriedly carries me to the car and drives me to hospital. What a morning.

It’s time to go home now. Doctor Collins scolded me for being late, but later he became really happy when he knew what happened. I had to tell him, I don’t want my salary got cut. I just told Leslie to pick me up, so I waited in the lobby, chatting with Nurse Tatiana. “So how’s Leslie? He’s good?” “Yeah, he’s good. He gained some weights and happy now.” Nurse Tatiana smiled, “Nice to hear that. What kind of person he is?” “He’s sweet and pretty funny. He’s a nice guy.” I smiled remember him. “Does he work?” “Nope.” “And you okay with that?” Nurse Tatiana sounds surprised. “He’s just starts to adapt with his new environment, there’s no need to rush.” “But you spend all your salary on him, (your name)! What if he can’t work? You plan to live with him forever? Your salary is not enough to support you both forever!” I glared at Nurse Tatiana. “You can make fun of me, but don’t you ever make fun of Leslie. If my mom could raise me alone until I became what I am now, I could live with Leslie from my own salary alone.” I’ve never been this angry. So what if he can’t work? He can make his own business, we can make our own business. It’s not his fault that he’s difficult to adapt; it’s not his fault that he hasn’t had special skill or extensive knowledge.

Right when Nurse Tatiana about to speak, a hospital staff comes to me. “Are you Miss (your name)?” he asked. “Yes, what is it?” “Uh, a man asked me to give this to you.” he said as he gives me a car key. That’s my car key. “Where is he?!” I shake that man shoulders. “Uh, h-he left 20 minutes ago.” “What?! Why did you just give this now?!” The hospital staff looks terrified, “I’m sorry! It-it’s the man order to give you this, 20 minutes after he left!” “Tch!” I run to my car. “Shit! Shit! Shit!” I drive in rage, and swear all the way to the bookshop he usually goes. I even tried to call his cell phone, but he didn’t answer. When I get to the bookshop, it’s already closed. I hurriedly drive to the library near our house, but he’s nowhere to be found. He’s not at the garden too. He’s already at home. Please God, let him be at home!

I park my car at our yard and quickly jump out of car. I unlock the door with so many hopes. When I finally open the door, I can’t see him anywhere. I run upstairs to the bedroom, hoping he’s there, crying or whatever I don’t care, as long as he’s there. But no, he’s neither in our bedroom nor in the spare bedroom. I slumped on the floor and start to cry. He heard my conversation with Nurse Tatiana and he definitely feels guilty about it. He ran because he doesn’t want to be a burden for me. He knows that he had caused me much trouble and that’s why he always trying to make me happy, so at least he could pay me back. It’s his way to return for what I did for him. And honestly I don’t care if he can’t works; there are so many ways to make money after all. All that matters is we’re happy. He deserves to be happy. I cry myself hard to sleep. Where are you, Leslie?

PS : Enjoy! Hope you like it..

When I still debating with my mind, Leslie looking at me with a peaceful looks. He draws our face closer and kisses me. I widened my eyes in surprised. Then he pulls his face away. “(your name)?” Leslie called me. “Ya?” I still a bit shock from the kiss. “Will you be my girlfriend?” Leslie popped the question. My jaw dropped, and I squeal the ultimate answer to that question, “Yes, Leslie! Yes!” His face brightened and a big smile appears on his face. He spins me around and I hug him tight.

Then he stops, and looking right into my eyes with a serious face. He kisses me again, but it’s different from the first. He kisses me hard, more like he wants to eat me up. I slowly kiss him back. He is a good kisser, I really don’t expect it. Then Leslie sits on his bed while holding me in his arms as we kiss. He puts his hands on my hips and pulls me closer to him, removes the distance between us. I let out a soft moan as his tongue tracing mine. Our kiss grew heavy as I squeeze his hair, immersed in the passionate kiss. We pulled away from the kiss, touching our nose together while breathing heavily. Then he kisses me again, this time slowly. My mind goes blank from his kiss. I never have a passionate kiss like this. Even though it’s his first kiss, he could make me crave for more.

After a series of kiss that seems going forever, we just sit there in silence. I’m sitting on his lap with my arms around his neck, and his arms around my hips. We’re just cuddling, touching our heads together, simply enjoying our quality time. Then Leslie breaks the silence. “So.. (your name).. is my girlfriend?” Leslie asked me. I smiled and answered, “Right. And you are?” “(your name)’s boyfriend..!” he lifted his head to look at me. “Correct!” I pinched his nose. He smiled, “I can’t wait.. to live together with you..” “Me too” I nodded.  “Hmm.. But you don’t have any clothes, so we’ll go shopping tomorrow, okay? We’ll make you really handsome with new clothes, instead of that ugly hospital outfit. Blablabla..” I keep talking. “There will be.. many people?” asked Leslie. He seems scared. “Don’t worry sweetheart, everything will be fine.” I petted his hair.

The next morning, I go with Nurse Tatiana to buy Leslie an outfit. He can’t go to the mall wearing that hospital outfit. I buy him a black shirt, a pair of jeans, and a pair of sneakers. No more white for Leslie. When I’m back at the hospital, I run to Leslie’s room and put those clothes on Leslie. “Wow, you look like an anime guy, with white hair and black shirt. umm who is he again?” I tried to remember, “Ah yes, that guy from Tokyo Ghoul.” “So that means I’m scary?” Leslie asked me. I giggled, “Of course not, you look handsome and cool.” Then I brush his hair. “Let’s go, Leslie, it’s already noon. You want to get home as soon as you can, right?” I pass my hand out to him. He takes my hand and we’re going for shopping.

We go to the mall by car, and Leslie seems fascinated with everything along the way. I guess it’s because he doesn’t go out a lot, so almost everything are new to him. Then we arrived at the mall. “Wow, it’s so big! And there are so many people!” Leslie said in wonder. “Yes, it’s the biggest mall. You can find everything you need here.” “Oh, I see. That’s why it’s so big.” Leslie’s eyes shines. Thank God, he’s not freaked out, I sighed. “Well, come on; let’s buy some clothes for you!” I grab his hand and drag him to a boutique. Apparently Leslie has a good fashion style. He picks out clothes that fit him, and absolutely make him looks gorgeous. I wonder what more surprises that wait for me when I live with him later. We come in and out of many boutiques, and buy him everything he needs: A coat, pajamas, jacket, shoes; even sunglasses and hat.

Now I know why men hate women when it comes to shopping. Waiting is so… boring. I just clapped my hands whenever I saw him with something good. Fortunately we bought many clothes from the shops, if we don’t; I’m pretty much sure we’ll get kicked out. But what can I say? Leslie needs lot of clothes, and it’s his first time going shopping and all, he must be happy.

Finally, he got everything he needs. And we’re done buying household needs, you know, like soaps, toothpastes, groceries and all. Cheers! All that shopping makes me starving. “Leslie, let’s get something to eat, I’m starving. Oh, but we should put all of these in the car.” I pointed at the shopping bags. “Okay.” So, after a trip to the car to put all of the bags, we get back in the mall. “What do you want to eat, Leslie?” I asked him as I put my hand around his arm. “Um, anything? You choose, (your name).” “Alright then, let’s grab some burgers. I’m craving for them.” I said happily and lead us to the restaurant.

“Burgers are awesome!” Leslie cheered after we get out from the restaurant. “I know, right?” “So we’re going home now?” Leslie asked, laying his hand on my shoulder as we walked our way out of the mall. “Uh-huh, I’m tired. And we still got our luggage to be unload.” I sighed hard. “(your name), I’ll help you!” Leslie said cheerfully, shaking my shoulder. “Of course you have to.” I pouted. Leslie giggles. Leslie catch a glimpse around, then called me. “Um, (your name)?” His voice seems worried. “Yeah?” “I don’t like it.. Everybody is looking at me..” He said as he lowered his head. I take a glimpse around, and find some girls looking at me, or more exactly Leslie, and they freaked out. It’s only his first day out of the hospital and he’s already has some fans? I turned my head over. They don’t even realize the handsome boy already with someone, do they? “Ah, it seems they are your fans, Leslie.” “Nonsense, (your name).” I gasped, “How dare you talking like that to me, young man?” “What are you? An old woman?” he answered and we laughed together. Then Leslie kisses me on my head, in front of the crowd. Still, with no shame, at all. Usually I’ll protest, but this time I let him be. At least those girls will know that Leslie’s mine.

We get in the car and I immediately drive the car. I want to hit the bed as soon as I can. Leslie doesn’t talk much on the way out of the lot. He struggles to fight off the sleepiness that attacks him, but he fails. By the time we hit the road, he already falls asleep. So much for you first day, huh Leslie? I giggled to myself.

Fifteen minutes later, we arrived at our new house, our beautiful cottage. I wake him up, “Wakey wakey, Leslie. We’re arrived at home.” He rubs his eye, and slowly gets off the car. Then he shrieks, “(your name)! What’s with this home? It’s so beautiful!” “I know, I know, you’re welcome.” I answered him as I carry the shopping bags. “Well, thank you, then.” Leslie laughs. He’s really happy, so I know I make the right choice. “C’mon sweetie, these bags won’t get off by themselves.” I teased him. Then he helps me carry the rest of the bags inside the house. We unloaded the bags and throw them to the washing machine. God, this house is terrific! We don’t have to buy any furniture or electronics, this house has it all.

“You’re in this room and I’m in that room, okay?” I told Leslie. “But if you happen to be scared, you can come to my room and we’ll sleep together.” Leslie nods. “(your name), why can’t we sleep together? I heard couple sleep together.” Leslie frowned. Eh, that’s make sense. But since Doctor Collins said all that, I get shy. “It will be a waste of the room. At least let’s try to sleep on our own. If you don’t like it, you could always come to my room.” He raises his eyebrows and nods, giving an ‘alrighty then’ look. “Now, get out, I’m gonna change.” I pushed him out of my room.

I’ve showered; Leslie’s showered; now it’s time to hit the bed. I fall asleep right after my head touch the pillow. Leslie, without me knowing, couldn’t sleep at all. He flips his body, trying to find the right position so he could sleep.

An hour passes by, but he still couldn’t have some sleep. Then he decided to sleep in my room. He opens my room door slowly, so I don’t wake up. He sits on my bed, staring at my sleeping face. He smiles to himself and strokes my hair. He thinks over his life these past months. He realized how he used to not trust people at all, how he used to spend his day in the cold hospital room alone, how the nurses treated him badly that he got scars everywhere. He remembered he could only sleep for couple hours before the nightmare haunts him, until I came to his life. He noticed that I’m the one who changed his life. I showered him with affections, I treated him with love and I always accompany him in his cold room. I slowly made him believe in people, I made him believe there are still good people out there, who don’t care if he’s mentally unstable and treat him well. I have opened his eyes to the world, I have opened his heart to people. And he’s really grateful that he met me. Then he lies beside me, embracing me with his warmth. And finally, he falls asleep.

The next morning I wake up, and realize that Leslie’s already in my room, embraces me. I look at the clock and realized it’s almost noon. I wonder if his embrace is the reason why I could sleep soundly. He still fast asleep, his face is so adorable when he sleeps. I kiss his forehead and he lets go of his hug, then facing the opposite direction from me. I get into the bathroom and take a shower. Not so long, Leslie awakes. He walks to the bathroom with half closed eyes as he yawns and scratches his stomach. I was enjoying the hot shower when I feel like someone’s watching me. So I turn around. Then there I see my lovely man standing dumbfounded, his eyes widened in shock and his jaw drops. “NOOOOOO!” I screamed with all my might. “LESLIE, GET OUT!” I reflex trying to cover my body with my hands. Then he slams the door in shock. My hearts beats like crazy. Damn it! My biggest fear came true!  What Doctor Collins said became real!

So Be It..

I planned to continue my series as long as I have any good idea, but maybe I'm gonna end it up in 2-3 chapters more.

Why? Because someone told me that if I make it long, people will get bored, and the story become unclear and incoherent. Well, I really like to keep it going, though.

Ah, I know when to end it, so let's not take anyone shit, am I right?

The One (Leslie Withers x Reader) - Chapter 3

“(your name).. I love you!” Leslie gave me a big smile. Suddenly my surroundings got blurred. All I can see is Leslie, holding my hands, right in front of me. The time stops for a brief moment that seems like forever. I can’t believe my ears. Am I just dreaming? Maybe working in a mental hospital has a side effect, I’m starting to lose my mind. Or did I eat something weird? Ah.. it must be the apple pie that I had for lunch.. so apple pie is bad for me.. Oh! Maybe it was spoiled? Or poisoned? “(your name)?” Leslie’s voice realized me. “(your name).. are you okay?” Leslie looks worried. “Ah, I’m sorry, Leslie. What did you just say?” I asked him. Who knew if I was hallucinating, right? “Listen.. I.. Love.. You.. (your name)!” said Leslie, pinching my cheeks. “You.. Love me..?” I asked him as I pointed myself.

“Say, Leslie.. Do you know what love is?” I don’t want to get excited, what if he didn’t mean it? But unexpectedly, Leslie nods. “Love is when I’m with you.. I’m happy. But when I’m not I’m sad..” Leslie explained. “You could also feel that when you’re away from your best friend.” “No..! It’s different.. (your name).. you don’t know? You’re special.. to me..” said Leslie. “Yeah, but..” I tried to talk, but Leslie put his finger on my lips, creating an invincible seal. “No.. It’s not.. It’s not because I.. experience this for the first time.. I know it’s different.. (your name).. why you always deny me?” Leslie lowered his head. “I know.. this feelings are new for me.. but I.. I also know the difference.. (your name).. you don’t love me.. Do you?” a single tear drops into the bed. “No, Leslie, it’s not like that!” I lift his head. “I’m sorry, Leslie, I’m sorry.. Of course I love you.. That’s why I want to be with you. That’s why I want to live together with you.. Don’t cry, Leslie. I just couldn’t believe it. I’m sorry..” I’m looking into his clear eyes. Those clear eyes that have been through a lot of pain. Those clear eyes that were always searching for help, are now shining with love and hope. I kiss his forehead, then back looking into his eyes. “I love you, Leslie.” Then there he smiled.

The next couple days, we spend the day like we always did. Just learning and playing. I tried to keep him always happy to make him forget about his family. Of course things were different, we get even more closer than before. He really shows his feelings for me, which makes me not only happy, but also embarrassed. Like today, at the creativity class, he drew a picture of me and him cuddling and innocently said it loud in front of the whole class when Doctor Mel asked him to explain the picture. He’s happy, while I want to bury my face in the wall. But how could I angry? It’s all new to him, I have to understand, and probably tell him not to do it anymore. “Eh?? Why can’t I do it??” he asked, looking disappointed. “Because.. I’m embarrassed, dear Leslie.” I pat his head. “Why do you have to be embarrassed?” Leslie pouts. “Because expressing your feeling in front of people loudly is embarrassing.” “Doesn’t make sense.” said Leslie, sulking. I laughed at his expression. “Look at you! You’re so noisy when you’re mad, huh?” I pinched his nose in annoyance. He’s so cute when he’s sulking, makes me want to eat him up.

After lunch, we go to the garden like we always do. We sit under a big tree, covering ourselves from the summer heat. Leslie would always play and I would read a book. But today he clings to me, asking me to read for him. I start to wonder if he loves me as his mother, not a lover. But I suppose he just wants to be spoiled by me, since he never knows how it feels being loved. “What is it about?” asked Leslie. I open the book on my lap. “This book, Leslie, is one of the most popular books in the world. It’s about wizardry. The title is Harry Potter. Interesting, isn’t it?” I explained the book to him. Leslie’s eyes shine in wonder. “Wow.. Read it.. (your name), read it!”Leslie is so excited, and I start to read it. I laughed inside my heart, Leslie surely is adorable. He’s talkative when he’s sulking, but still awkward when he’s not.

Few minutes later, my phone rings. “Here, Leslie, read it yourself. I have to take this call.” I give the book to Leslie then walk a bit further. I look at my phone’s screen, the caller is Doctor Jimenez. “Hello? Doctor Jimenez, what’s wrong?” “Where are you? I’m at the hospital right now, I promise you an explanation, right?” “Ah, yes. I’m at the garden with Leslie.” Doctor Jimenez sighed, “Well, I’ll explain on the phone, and I’ll meet Leslie after.” And he explains everything to me. I am grateful Leslie isn’t back to his old self after what happened. Doctor Jimenez ends the call and is on his way here. I walk back to Leslie. Behind all that pain he suffered, he became strong. I sit beside him and he gives the book back to me. “Well, how far have you read?” I asked him as he clings to me again. He points to the paragraph that he left off, and I read for him.

Doctor Jimenez shows up at the garden entrance. I wave to him and he walks toward us. “Look Leslie, Doctor Jimenez here. He needs to talk to you.” I petted his hair. “Okay.. (your name).. stay here..” said Leslie, leaned his head on me. Doctor Jimenez reached us and sits in front of Leslie. “How are you, Leslie?” asked Doctor Jimenez. “I’m fine..” said Leslie, still clinging to me. I feel bad to let Doctor Jimenez sees this. I bet my face all red right now. Doctor Jimenez giggled looking at his spoiled patient. “(your name), you spoil him too much, don’t you?” Doctor Jimenez smirks. “No, Doctor.. I love her.. And I want to be spoiled by her..” said Leslie. “Ah I see, you confessed, huh Leslie? So you both are dating?” asked Doctor Jimenez, teasing me. “Dating? What is it?” Leslie lets go of me, and even without seeing his face, I know he’s really excited. “Well, dating is when you and (your name) became a lover, many people will call you as her boyfriend, and she as your girlfriend. You can get jealous if she’s holding other man’s hands, bla bla bla..” Doctor Jimenez told Leslie everything, I can’t even hear the rest and decide to leave. Leslie is too excited to notice me, so I walk away from the garden.

“You understand, Leslie?” asked Doctor Jimenez. As usual, Leslie asked so many questions until he satisfied. “Yes..!” said Leslie happily, “I will ask her.. to be my girlfriend!” “Yeah, you go boy!” Doctor Jimenez patted his back, showing some supports. “Now, Leslie.. Doctor Collins, (your name) and I will discuss where you will live after you get out from here. But I think it’s best to ask you first. Since you can’t live on your own – at least for now – one of us will live together with you..” “(your name) promise me.. we’ll live together..” Leslie cuts Doctor Jimenez sentence. “I’ve already knew without you telling me. I just need to tell you how it works.” Doctor Jimenez smiled. “Now, let’s get inside and discuss the rest with everyone.” “Okay..” Leslie answered.

I met Doctor Collins at the lobby. He told me that he had taken care of Leslie’s documents, and he’s ready to get out from here. But the problem is where he will live. “(your name), where do you think is the best place for him? Where do you want to live?” asked Doctor Collins. He didn’t even bother asking me if I’m willing to live with Leslie or not. I guess everyone knows that I’m the one who must live with him. “I think it’s going to be hard for him to adapt with new environment, not to mention interacting with people, maybe it’s best to live in the suburbs.” “Okay, that makes sense. Then let’s get started to look for a house. 2 bedrooms are enough, isn’t it? Then..” Doctor Collins keeps talking. I stared at him and he seems to notice. “What’s wrong?” “Doctor.. Thank you very much!” I bowed deeply. Doctor Collins surprised, “Hey, hey, stop it! Why did you do that? What nationality are you?” “I have to express my thanks to you, but saying thank you is just not enough.” Doctor Collins smiled, “Then, take care of Leslie, make him always happy, okay?” “I will, Doctor. Thank you.” I hugged him.

It’s been a week since Doctor Collins, Doctor Jimenez and I looking for a house for Leslie (and me). Luckily, today we found the perfect one, a small cottage in the suburb. It’s not too far from Beacon Mental Hospital, so I have no problem if I have to work late. The cottage isn’t so big, but it has a nice and wide garden. There’s a river behind the house, it just perfect. It got a beautiful Victorian style and the furniture is vintage and chic. I feel it’s my home already. “So, how is it?” Doctor Jimenez asked me. “It’s perfect! Leslie will be happy!” I smiled brightly. Doctor Collins whistle, “A beautiful ‘love nest’ huh?” Doctor Collins teased me. “Doctor Collins!” I shouted. My face grew hot. “ ‘love nest’ my ass. We’ll sleep in different room.” I pouted. “For a few nights, then who knows? Leslie is a grown, healthy man. Soon or later he will knows what lust is, and when he knows.. You know what happen next.” Doctor Collins smirks. “He’ll see you fall asleep, he’ll see you in apron.. Oh! Maybe he’ll bump into you right after you take a shower and..” Doctor Collins keeps teasing me. “Aaaargh! Stop it! I can’t hear you! Lalalalala~” I cover my ears and babbling randomly. Doctor Jimenez laughs hard at me.

On the way back to hospital, Doctor Collins kept teasing me. He even told me to make a move on Leslie and to top it all, he taught me about how to do ‘it’. Doctor Collins is really crazy. Thank God, Leslie isn’t coming with us. I can imagine he gets really excited and ask about all that stuff. How could I face him without getting embarrassed? I sighed deeply. As I open Leslie’s door, he immediately hugs me. “(your name)..! Where have you been? I missed you..” “Aww.. I know, I know.. I missed you too.” I petted his head. “I have a good news, Leslie. Ready?” Leslie nods. “We’ve found a perfect house, and tomorrow we can move there! Yaaay!” I waved his hands. Leslie looks happy and squeals with me, “Yaay! We’ll live together.. (your name)..!” He laughs happily and suddenly lifts me up. “Wow.. you’re strong! I didn’t expect it!” I said as I put my arms around his neck. “(your name).. do you like strong men?” Leslie asked me. I giggled and shook my head. “Nope. I like strong Leslie.” His eyes widened and he smiled. “I like beautiful (your name).” Oh God, look at him! He’s so adorable.. My heart melts.. And his face is so close.. What if we kissed? I remembered Doctor Collins ‘wise’ advice to make a move. Damn, why do I have to remember that in a time like this?! But, should I do it? I wonder how will he reacts.. I even wonder how it feels to kiss him. God, stop your dirty mind (your name)! Get yourself together! When I still debating with my mind, Leslie looking at me with a peaceful looks. He draws our face closer and kisses me.

PS : Finally, the third chapter! I like to think that Leslie is spoiled, he's cute :3 I hope you like it!
