The Only One [Levihan One-shot]

When I saw the announcement for this contest, also the theme we should be writing about... I was immediately reminded of my Levihan first kiss headcanon that I was writing a short story about. ‘Yas! Perfect chance for me to finish it!!’ I thought, so this one-shot happened. Be prepared for some angst, thought.... and happy reading!!

They wouldn’t stop. They wouldn’t give me a break. They kept haunting me, ruining me, tearing me apart... they drove me crazy, causing me to wither and to rot.

The concentrated scent of blood... the eardrum shattering endless screams... the down pouring tears of devastation... they seemed to be content lurking inside my mind, not even planning to stop what they’re doing or planning to care wether I enjoyed what they did or not.

Nothing and no one could cure this. Not even those who survived that hell, and not even some intoxicating substance. I was ready to drown deeper, and to just endure this heart wrenching emotion. There’re no more reason for me to live. I finally got what I wanted my whole life, but everything I ever had in my life have been taken in return. I rose from the depth of despair, only to be dragged in even deeper...

...But that wasn’t until I met you.

You. The only one.

You’re the only one who understand. The only one offering me a shoulder to cry on. The only one who get to see this side of me. You’re the only person in the entire regiment who cared, empathized, and stayed by my side. You’re the only one who can make me smile, laugh, cry, feel angry, feel pissed, feel embarrassed, and feel loved, all at the same time. What did I ever do to deserve an angel like you? What did I ever do to deserve you accompanying me for eternity?

What did I ever do... to get the chance to share that kiss with you...?

I was in the darkest pit of sorrow, loneliness, and helplessness, but that one moment we shared made me feel wanted again. It made me feel like I’ve not lost everything yet, and there is still hope.

I ed that moment when you walked into the bar, worried and drenched. I was overdosing myself in alcohol when you found me, and you sat beside me afterwards. I shouldn’t have ran away, you told me. You knew how I feel, but I didn’t had to bear it myself, you told me. It took me long before I could finally break free, but I was glad I could. I was glad that you were there to help me do so. I was glad, that I could obtain back what was taken away from me...

...love...

...bravery...

...joy...

It all returned in that one exact moment when we leaned in for that kiss. I was so overwhelmed, and my mind was blank. Before I knew it, I was already free. I drowned yet again, but it was into what seemed like a warm sea of happiness.

I could never thank you enough, Hanji Zoe, for saving me from the shadows of the past. I’m ready to step forward and to not look back, for I know that you will always be by my side. From today on, we shall always be bound together. Nothing shall separate us, may it be death, sickness, or some huge naked man eating monsters.

You’re the only one for me, and forever will be the light of my life.

I love you, my dearest Shitty Glasses...

...and once again, Thank you.
