(Y/n POV)

****

Ever since I was young, I never grow any relationship with anyone besides my family. My siblings are hanging out with their friends, so I have no one to play with. My mom is sick so I can't play with her either, and my dad is too busy.

I've always tried my best to make new friends but all they did was just trying to get far from me, each time I want to help. They just shun me.

It gets to the point it's pretty boring, but my thoughts never went far to depression, lucky because I have a very high optimistic mind, I never gave hope on finding new friends. Maybe I'm just not doing it at a perfect time

That all changes when I meet this person, I meet him unexpectedly, it happens around Wasteland Graveyard. I decided to mess around at the Krill Area, I did this often when I have nothing to do anymore.

As I was passing by, I stumble upon a krill. It looks like it was resting and I decided to take a closer look. After looking around I noticed that it starts to make a random growl and grumbles, I wasn't aware since I was keeping a good distance from it

Until I noticed a big, sharp, and curvy splinter on its body mainly the tail part. Not just one but more than probably 3.

It looks like this Krill had a fight with the other krill, or was flying too fast and hit something. I gently sneaked around the tails area trying to take the splinters out trying not to alert the big guy

He looked peacefully asleep as I was halfway done, as I reached the last splinter, this one gives me the chills. It was pretty big and I can see a little blood coming out of the krill as well

I'm aware that when I take it out I'll wake the Krill, I decided to gently pull it. But the krill did wake up with a rush as It swings its tails as a reflex and hits my small frame.

I fall by my butt, I winced in pain and looked up. The Krill turned around seeing me on the ground, I wasn't scared or anything because its eyes didn't change red. But it still gives me the position as if it was about to strike at me at any second or later

I reassure him by telling him that I'm just trying to pull out the wounds in his tails, I don't even know if it understands my language but I just said it anyway expecting It to understand a word I say

It looked like it calmed down as he left his habitat and fly outside.

After those days, I start to have thoughts of visiting the Krill again. But I'm afraid his attitude changes around me and might have eaten me if I come back.

I still visit the Wasteland Graveyard, and sometimes I meet him unexpectedly. To the point, I just sneaked up to him and his habitat and stayed there for a while.

He doesn't look bothered at my appearance at all, but he sometimes growls if I get too comfortable around his space

It went on for a while like that, and he's starting to get used to my attendance. Surprisingly he's not just an ordinary creature.

He showed me that he can turn into just like us, but still resemble a krill. I was fascinated and of course, get along even further with him.

****

And that's how I meet my new friends and if I dare to say it, my only friends. He's starting to show a little soft side to me and gets more open I guess?

,

I walked up to the Wasteland Graveyard, quietly trying not to alert other Krills. Then I made my way to his habitat

I wandered around the area as I was inside the habitat already, "Big guy! Where are you?" I shouted as he revealed himself from the corner

"I told you not to call me that... " he frowned

I smiled "Chill, nobody is here anyway!", he mentioned that he doesn't remember his name, so I mostly would call him Darky, Big guy, or Dragon.

" What did you bring today "

"Oh, just some library books I love to read! Maybe you would like to read it too? I bet you it's interesting"

He nodded as a response, I sat down beside him opening some pages.

(3rd POV)

As (y/n) was reading and explaining the page, The Dragon was paying attention to her frame more than what's she's explaining.

He was too distracted by her beauty, never in his life he's found someone so appealing and friendly for him. He never trusted many light Creatures except (y/n)

As he was busy daydreaming in his thoughts, (y/n) looked up at his face. She couldn't see his face clearly but she can feel a little blush going around it "hello? Are you even listening?"

" Why are you so appealing "

He blurted out making the girl squealed, " I uh, beg you pardon?" She asked pretending nothing happen but earn a silence from the Dark Dragon

" what have you done to me "

She widened her eyes, he slowly hugged her pulling her closer. " you've changed me (y/n) " he stated as he caressed her cheek with his claws gently, (y/n) blushed but keep it cool

" no one has ever treated me differently, most people hunt me, but you treated me like I'm something else... Something like, more than just friend "

(Y/n) blushed at his words, it's going to be a long day to explain to him that she has feelings for him from the start. She looked down blushing madly trying to find a different subject but that would make it even worst.

"Well, i-i think everyone deserves a better experience, everyone is still the same. Just because you're a krill that doesn't mean there's a border between us" (y/n) explained

He softened at her words, he pulled her even closer warming her up, she felt his body warming up " (y/n), I appreciate your enthusiasm. I believe I have what you creature called is, love ..."

She blushed even brighter, "O-oh, hum... I feel the same way too..."

For once in his entire life, he finally smiled as he hugs her in his embrace trying to cherish this moment.
