"Dad, are you serious!?" you ask your stubborn father.
His voice becomes more stern than it already is, "Yes, Y/N. No more questions. You need someone with you at all times."
You groan and storm off to your room.
You're Y/N Rossi, daughter of millionaire Carlo Rossi. You believed that you shouldn't rely on your father's fortune, so you picked up a music career from a young age. You're not old enough to move out yet as you're still a minor, but you will when you can.
You open the door to your room and slam it. Having a bodyguard invades privacy! You don't want people near you 24/7!
You decide to go into the city and enjoy your alone time while you can. You went into your favourite stores and got your favourite treats. You talked to the old lady on the street selling flowers and decided to buy some.
When you arrived at home, your father was in the living room with a blond guy in a pink suit. This guy can't be your bodyguard... he looks too odd to be hired by your father.
"Ah, Y/N. Come, meet your bodyguard, Giorno Giovanna," you father gestures you over to the living room.
Giorno smiles at you and holds his hand out, giving you a firm handshake.
Your father gets up, explaining rules he has for the both of you, "Y/N's career is becoming more serious and people will come after her and my fortune. Giorno has expressed extreme strength and loyalty, so you two will be together in public, but not at school. You must be home by 10pm."
You roll your eyes and argue with the old man, "I'm not a baby, dad! This is unreasonable! I already have protection at my concerts!"
"This isn't up for discussion. Talk to eachother, will you?" he asks as he heads back to his office.
"Giorno, go home. I'll pay you what he's paying you if you go home," you order him.
He shakes his head, "I don't think you have the kind of money he does."
You get defensive, "What does that mean? I'm not a 'daddy's money' girl, okay? You'll still get paid for doing absolutely nothing. Leave me alone."
"No can do," he smiles.
Great. Why won't he take that offer? Does he WANT to get on your nerves?

"Get some sleep then, we have a concert in Rome."
You wake up and pack a few of your things. Giorno helps you load them into your car and gets into the drivers seat.
"Hey! Out of my car. I own this," you demand.
"Y/N, just sit pretty in the passenger seat, will you? I was told to drive you," he responds.
You purse your lips and then get in.
"How old are you?" you ask him. He looks like he's your age, but his figure says otherwise. He's not lanky and bony, he's lean and defined.
"I'm your bodyguard, not your friend," he remarks.
You look at him, a little annoyed, "Your hair looks like spring rolls dude, I don't want you being my friend anyways."
His lips turn into a small frown upon your sudden insult, "I'm 15."
You look out the window, not trying to say anything else.
~~~~~
You eventually arrive in your concert venue, heading to your change room. Your stylist chooses a tacky outfit for you, and you top your outfit off with a flower headband. As you were changing into the clothes, you sang a couple of your unreleased songs.
You leave the change room to find Giorno standing outside of it, "I don't remember that being on any of your albums?"
You raise an eyebrow, "Since when did you listen to my music, egg roll?"
He frowns, "My name is Giorno."
"Okay, Giorno!" you smile teasingly as you walk on the stage to perform.
~~~~
The performance was going great. The crowd was doing a big wave in the nosebleeds while people in the pit were singing their hearts out. This was your most successful show, surely. You touched your fans' hands and reacted to signs that were held up.
The show was running smoothly until screams were heard and your fans started running away in every direction.
You froze on the stage, confused. What was happening? Everything was too loud and you couldn't see what was going on in the massive arena.
That's when you saw it. In the midst of everyone running away, there was someone walking directly towards you angrily.
They point something at you and you felt like life was in slow motion.
You looked to your left. Giorno was running to you, but you saw that the bullet fired. He's too late. The bullet was coming at you. He was 2 metres away. Too far.

Suddenly, a tree bursts up in front of you, stopping all 5 bullets from reaching you.
Giorno jumps off of the stage towards the shooter, lifting him up into the air and barraging him while standing there. How the fuck?
You peek behind the tree, scared of Giorno.
"Y/N, are you alright?" he hops back up and peeks behind the tree.
You look at him with pure fear, "H-How did you... do that?"
He extends his hand, "My job is to protect you. You just have to trust me. Can you trust me?"
You hesitantly take his hand, "I guess? You freak me out, Giorno."
He smiles, "So you are capable of saying my name!"
Your eyes widen, "Giorno! What if someone was shot in the crowd! Can you please go check for me and tell me? I'll pay for their hospital bills!"
He nods and comes back 15 minutes later, "No one was shot."
You sigh of relief, then start crying as you sit on the edge of the stage.
"I really thought everything was going well. Silly me, I should know that things never go my way by now."
The blond sits beside you, giving you a meaningful look, "This wasn't any of your fault. You can redo the show soon for the people who attended today."
You give him a genuine smile, "I hope everyone's okay. Are you okay?"
He nods, "Just fine."
You look at the tree that came out of nowhere, "Hey, how did you do that?"
He smirks and tell you, "It's a secret, bella."
"You have magic??" you ask him.
He gets up and heads toward the parking lot, "Come on, lets go home."
You grunt and drag your feet to the car.
On the way home, you spotted the old lady on the street selling flowers again. Her stock was still full, and you felt like you had to do something.
"Stop the car!"
You headed out and asked the woman how much everything was, then gave her the money and only took 3 yellow tulips with you.
When you got in the car, you gave them to Giorno, "Hah, these look like your hair. One for each roll."
He takes them from your hand gently and smells them, "Why?"
You look out your window, "For protecting me and everyone else. Thank you."
He blushes slightly at your gesture.
~~~~
After a month of touring Europe for your shows, you finally got to rest at home. Giorno wasn't needed anymore, but he insisted on staying.
On a few private jet rides, you ended up sleeping on his shoulder. You felt safe with him, and to be honest, you didn't want him to go.
However, your father became fond of your friendship with Giorno. He's overprotective, so he wanted to get rid of him.
He called you and Giorno to his office and told him that he has to go by tomorrow morning. You argued with your dad and telling him how strong Giorno was, but it was not up for negotiation.
At night, you left your house and went to the pool, sitting on the edge and letting the tension run free.
You started to sob. Giorno has been nothing but kind to you, and he'll probably get hired by other people. You probably won't see him again, if not a while.
"Giorno..." you whisper in between breaths.
"Yes?" a calming voice says behind you.
You turn around, wide-eyed, "Oh, sorry. You should be sleeping right now."
He sits down beside you and smirks, "Crying over me, Y/N?"
You scoff, "I regret going out here."
"You know, I don't want to leave you either."
You turned to him, face wet with tears, "R-Really?"
He smiles and faces you, "You are the most selfless person I've ever met. You got shot at 5 times, but you only cared about the health of everyone else. You bought the old lady's flower stock but you only took 3 tulips, which you gave to me. You wanted to pay for people's hospital bills."
You blush at his words and he leans closer to your face, tucking your hair behind your ear, "You're amazing and extremely beautiful. Incomparable to every woman on Earth."
You look away from him, flustered.
He grips your chin softly and turns your face to him, faces 3 inches apart.
"Giorno..." you whisper his name.
"What is it, bella?" he responds
You put your hand on his cheek and pull him in for a sweet kiss, "You are as selfless as I am, caro, so thank you... for everything."
He smiles and pulls you in for another kiss.
sorry for ghosting y'all lol hope you enjoyed

Science fiction elements won't be introduced for quite some time. I currently update my work at a rate of one chapter per week. I'm also in the process of editing chapters 1 - 7, changing the format to make it more readable, and introducing more show and less tell. The reworked chapters will have (edited) after the title. All chapters after 8 have already been written in the new style. I have a Patreon page if you wish to donate.

8 156Toothpick
“Hello! My humble audience! I, the Bard of the North, am going to tell you a tale. Nothing new, nothing old. A story of a hero, some may say, others a poor boy who was hated by the world.” The storyteller paused as he waited, right timing was everything when telling a story. Pacing… Too slow and the audience became bored then left without tossing even the smallest of coins. If he spoke too fast and rushed the story. It would leave the audience confused and having no reason to be impressed. So like any good storyteller, the Bard has to do a balancing act of sorts. Not too slow, not too fast. Just perfectly in the middle. “In a shattered country in the south, a novice princeling has the ambition to mend a torn tapestry that is his birthplace. Struggling to fend off those who would usurp the throne in an unending civil war spanning centuries. A mercenary that left only death in his wake, unable to stave off the monotony and peace of life. He looks back at the path laden with bodies, wondering if it was all worth it. Wandering souls summoned by a madman, travel away from a wasteland in a foreign land, the first alone, the others as companions. A deity, ancient in her years, waiting to be freed from a duty she no longer enjoys. For all these people and their stories, none are the hero of this tale. No, the hero is not grand, not wise, not ready.. he was punished for nothing of his doing, who was an outcast that was unloved by many, including his father.” This was always the big reveal novices use to jump off into their story. He did not start here, instead, like any good fishermen, he set the bait and waited until the fish bit before pulling. As he saw the audience's eyes focus, he then started the backstory. The harness, that stopped the listeners from having metaphorical whiplash. The foreshadowing. “But that is not where the story starts. No, not even the hero's birth. Where the story begins, is the boredom of the deity, a deity many know of. She who hunts for the impossible, the guide for those who have lost the path, the Huntress of Mallon--” A small pause, a short breath. “--All old names for a single powerful being that has roamed the grounds of this continent longer than any line of kings or queens, lords or ladies. A being of worship for many an individual…” One last breath. And he began singing the first verse.
8 289I am not the Hero
Disclaimer: This is a slow burn story that integrates both Fantasy and somewhat sci-fi. The MC will be more of an anti-hero who will kill any and everyone that he pleases while still understanding the plight of a Villain. This is also family-centric with a dash of hidden identity, Yandere Romance, Blackmail, and a lot of character growth. === Why is life precious? Because you only have one. Then what about the person who took over 999 lives? Who died 999 tragic death as a villain? Then, how would someone like that live? The answer is simple... as he damn wishes. “I-it’s not like I did it for you, you spinless Warrior.” “Good, the doors to your left, you may leave now.” He said to the tsundere Knight. PAH! “How dare you hit a woman?” “Who cares if you’re a woman? You slapped me when I just saved your life!” “You touched my chest!” “I said it was an accident, and again, I just saved your life — you know what? Fuck you, die here if you want to.” “Wait, wait, come back! Don’t leave me here! I’m sorry!” the princess screamed for help after being tossed to the side of the road. Theo did all this, yet to his dismay somehow, his reputation remained good in the eyes of many! A Hero, A Righteous Warrior, Benevolent King, Shadow Lord, Beast Keeper — such were the names given to him... To all of this, his reaction was always the same. “WHY!? How did they come to the conclusion that I’m a Hero? Even my other identities who massacred a lot of people, mind you, are not any different!” [I know, right?] “Shut up, Goddess!” This is the story of the most malicious villain turned Hero. The one with the darkest heart shining with the most brilliant name. He does not hide, nor run, he’s — The Villain Savior. === Final Notes: If you want to support the story, encourage the author, or just flat out want to read ahead, head over to the Patreon where you'll be a week ahead. Schedule: Tuesday, Friday, and Sunday Enjoy and leave your thoughts in the comment section as I read those Thanks to the good reviews
