Found the begining of this on a piece of paper when I was cleaning. Also, I have no idea why this shortie needed two people to beta it, but lunarshores and aqua-empress were kind enough to take a look.

Disclamer: not mine.


Imagine this – you had this sworn enemy whom you hated to the core, but now he's sleeping right beside you. You would fight with him, call him baka-marimo, but now you feel his breath on your hair as he sleeps. You used to hate his big calloused hands, but now you kiss them because you can't live without their touch. You used to make fun of his hair but now you love running your fingers through it just to feel how soft it really is. You used to hate his mouth that was rude to the ladies, but now you are intoxicated with his kisses, refusing to let go and keep begging for more. You have no idea how or when the things between you two changed, but, despite calling him an idiot, he was the first to notice the changes and patiently waited for you to catch up.

You still remember the first time he kissed you because you avoided him for days after that, barricading yourself in the galley and refusing to be in the same room as him because your face instantly became red when your eyes met. And you definitely remember your first night together, every single kiss and every single touch you shared. Sometimes you wonder if he knew it all along, the fact that maybe you fell for him from the very beginning but buried the feelings deep down and acted hateful towards him just because you didn't know how to show them and was afraid of rejection. Sometimes you wonder why, if he knew it all along, why did he play your game of pretend hatred.

A lot of things changed. You no longer fight him because you hide behind your fake hatred but because he helps you be a better fighter. You are no longer angry at him for every little thing he does because those small actions are what makes him who he is and you wouldn't have it any other way. The biggest change, however, are his eyes. The eyes that are no longer cold and distant when they look at you, but warm and loving and you melt every time he looks at you with a smile on his lips.

He is no longer someone you hate but someone you can't live without, and sometimes you wonder if all this time you were your own enemy.


Thanks for reading :D
