for the prompts thing. 40 and whatever toya relationship you want >:3
40. “Please don’t let me fall.”
A/N: White Day AU brainrot’s been getting Alto lately so I should probably take it here too, lol.
You know, Toya thought he’d gotten used to heights, but being on the back of an unfamiliar dragon makes him realize that he certainly hasn’t.
He knows how Ena moves, how she shifts, but not Akito.
And the once-distant fear returns to his chest.
“A-Akito!” Toya gasps, as Akito turns into a roll with zero warning.
Thoughts rush through his head. Falling, spinning, being torn away from everything he knows.
His head is killing him. He can’t— He can’t do this.
God, he’s a failure as a Black Rose— Who would expect the legendary Ice Dragon to be scared of heights? He’s a dragon rider, for fuck’s sake! The greatest in the kingdom!
But he can’t handle this. The twists and turns and the feeling of being so wildly out of control.
Akito pulls him along like a damn hurricane. As agile as the wind.
“Are you having fun?” Akito laughs, and Toya’s grip on his scales gets tighter.
And he can only bring himself to say one thing.
“Please don’t let me fall.”
Akito immediately stops twisting, and he turns into a normal flying position.
“Why would you fall? You’re my treasure.”
And Toya…
Toya can’t help but laugh.
Right. He’s not going to fall.
This is a free flight. Not a combat situation.
They’re supposed to be having fun.
And if Toya can trust Akito with his life in combat, he can certainly trust him with his life here. When it’s just the two of them.
