it was an average day for draken, returning home from a long day at toman. he had few bruises and cuts staining his knuckles from having to fight a rival gang, but those didn't bother him. he stuck his hands into the pockets of his trousers, thinking quietly to himself as he walked back to the brothel in which he resided, completely ignoring any external noise.

his thoughts always managed to drift back to you somehow, and frankly he wasnt mad at it. everything you did left him absolutely starstruck, and he admired all your qualities. draken wasnt certain on a lot of things, but he knew for sure that he loves you more than words could express.

so when he was met with a tear-driven takemichi telling him that you were bleeding out somewhere after being attacked, he didnt know what to do.

"takemitchy? what're you talkin' about, this ain't funny man." the taller male rubbed his neck, smiling nervously. he quickly faltered when takemichi's scared expression never wavered, a shockwave of fear being instilled deep within his spine.

you, y/n, couldnt be injured to the point where you were on the brink of death, right?

draken repeated that to himself as he began bolting down the busy streets, following the blonde who was rushing him to the scene. 'he's fine, he's fine, he's fine, he's-'

quickly rounding the corner into an alleyway, almost tripping and falling because of how desperate he was to make sure you were alive.

his eyes met your hunched over form, your back against the wall. draken immediately rushed over to you, touching and feeling everything. "y/n? y/n! please, please answer!" he pleaded with you, desperately, as you took your nearly cold hands in his. "ken." you responded, your once cheerful voice now raspy.

draken felt his heart sink down to his stomach, and it hurt. bad.

tears began welling up in his eyes as he held your form close, wrapping his arms in a way as though he was cradling you into a half hug as you both sat on the cold concrete. "please, dont die on me y/n, please. i cant lose you too." draken whispered in a quiet voice. you frowned, now using almost all your strength to turn your head up to meet his gaze. you lifted your arms, gently wiping the tears out of his eyes with your blood-stained fingers with a soft smile painting your pained expression. "kenny, you shouldnt cry, those tears dont suit you." you muttered, trying to lift his spirits with the little bit of time you had.

"y'know, every bit of time we spent together, i... i always enjoyed myself." you began to struggle, but that didn't matter. you were determined to make your beloved boyfriend know that you were his world. tears began to well up in your eyes too, as you realized that this was it.

you were going to die.

"what are you saying, y/n?! you arent leaving, no , you cant leave. you promised me!" draken was wailing at this point, his hands which once held yours with love and affection now shaking with fear and uncertainty. you smiled gently, shaking your head. glancing to the multiple gunshot wounds in your stomach, you looked back at the blonde. "i think.. i think that we both know i cant fulfill my promise, ken. im.. sorry." your speech began to slow as the tears began to flow down your face, reaching up to cup his cheek.

his eyes went wide as you placed a gentle kiss to his lips, giving him a bright smile before coughing violently. "i always did love you.. ken."

no, no no. draken began to panic because, you were no longer smiling. your hand went limp and your body went cold , and he couldn't feel your faint heartbeat anymore. and then draken finally broke, holding your now dead body tightly as he sobbed his eyes out. he cried because he would no longer wake up and look forward to seeing you, he cried because he would no longer get to feel your touch, and he cried because he had lost his lover.

his partner.

it wasnt fair, because draken couldnt have anything. he couldnt have anything without it being snatched from him.

and so he sat there, holding you. but this time it was different, because you two werent laughing.

he held you, as you died in his arms.
