Forgive me for creating a new story when I know that I am stuck with my previous ones!

Please enjoy this Yami x Charlotte story!

'If we're both still single when we're old, wanna take care of each other?'

Charlotte could not sleep.

And she was blaming Yami.

'What does he mean by that?'

A deep frown became visible on her face, her brows creasing in thought as she hugged the pillow tightly to her chest. She knew she needed the rest she could get especially from the fight she had with the Eye of the Midnight Sun but sleep would not visit her especially with her mind still filled with questions only Yami could answer.

What Black Bulls captain said continuously bugged her mind and she tried to painfully read and decode the meaning behind his words.

Did he really mean what he said?

'Maybe I should not overthink things...' she sighed tiredly and turned to her side. 'Maybe he is just teasing me again...'

Yami was always making fun of her and she wished that sometimes, hopefully, he would treat her kindly. She wanted Yami to treat her like a woman, to see her as a woman. But with the way she behaved towards him all this time, it might be difficult to make Yami see her in a different light. She was always cold and rude to him, insulting him using harsh words that she really did not mean.

'It's my fault in the first place,' she thought grimly and hid her growing shame behind her pillow. 'Why can't I be honest with myself? Stupid, Charlotte.'

She curled further into her bed and buried her face deeper, hoping to push away the prickling guilt that started to torment her aching heart. She was an idiot, she admitted. She's an idiot to the point that she always, always, always wondered what would happen if she allowed herself to be honest for once.

'Maybe he won't talk to me anymore...'

'Maybe he'll laugh at me.'

'Maybe he'll think I'm crazy.'

'Maybe...'

Maybe...

Maybe.

Always maybe. She was tired of maybes. She was tired of hiding her feelings.

She was tired...so tired. But she was afraid too.

But what if she said yes? What would happen?

Charlotte gulped, feeling the heat spread through her body at an incredible speed at the thoughts that suddenly appeared in her mind. Thoughts about Yami hugging her with his hard and sculpted body. Yami caressing her skin with his gentle touch. Yami whispering soft nothings to her ears.

Oh, the thought of Yami just holding her…

'Calm down, Charlotte! Stop imagining him! You need to sleep! Calm yourself!'

B-But what would it feel if she were to be bold and touch the lips of his with her own?

'I will see heaven.'

It was a scenario that she always fantasized and she felt so utterly dirty for thinking such things with Yami. But if it were to happen, she would die... she would die a happy knight. No regrets.

Feeling a little tired with all the thinking she had done for the past few minutes, she decided that it was time to sleep and call it a day. Imagining Yami was taking a toll on her body and losing sleep because of him was unforgivable on her part. She was a captain and she must do her duty religiously.

With that last thought in mind about Yami kissing her, Charlotte was able to sleep peacefully.

I am sorry for the grammatical errors. I actually just used my phone for typing this story. I do not have my laptop with me. My baby sis borrowed it for school.

If you have any requests with this pairing, I will happily write one for you! Review this story and tell me your requests so that I may help you quench your thirst! Thank you, loves!
