And a Week is All I Need (To Fall in Love With You)

Summary:

A collection of drabbles and poems - some related, some not - for SouYo Week 2020.

Day 1: Father's Day or Cloudy

Day 2: Yosuke's Birthday or Sunny

Day 3 4: Rainy or Sound

Day 4 6: Scent or Stormy

After the ghostly stranger vanishes, Yosuke only hangs around long enough to change his clothes and throw his pajamas into a sling bag with his wallet, charger, and phone, before grabbing his keys and bolting out the door. There is no way he's sleeping in that apartment tonight.

Notes:

shows up several days late with SouYo

Well hello again, I haven't written anything for this fandom in, what, a year? Oh my gods, I am so sorry. >_<

I never did finish SouYo Week 2019 (though I plan on doing so sometime here soon) and it's been... weird lately, but I really wanted to get back into writing and I especially wanted to participate in SouYo Week this year, too. I decided that I'm not doing oneshots this time - just shorter drabbles and apparently some poetry - to save myself some energy until I can find my groove again. ...And also to catch up with the prompts since I'm starting four days in. ^^;
Hopefully by the end of this week I'll be able to start gaining steam again!

But yeah. Have a sonnet. I wrote it with the intent of it being Souji narrating, but my wife thought it was Yosuke; I'll leave it up to y'all to decide~

Chapter 1: Overcast

Summary:

Day 1: Father's Day or Cloudy

But terrified I am of swift goodbye,
and so I hold my silence, hopeless, weak.

(See the end of the chapter for notes.)

Chapter Text

Silver glows the sky with muted sunlight,
and lost now is the blue that hides behind.
Yet in its absence I have yet to mind;
I barely miss it when you shine so bright,

or when your laugh sets all the world to right,
the sound like joy and warmth at once combined.
And helpless to your smile I am struck blind,
but daren't I tell you how I pine at night.

Had fate been kinder I'd with courage speak,
or you, perhaps, your fear you'd rectify.
But terrified I am of swift goodbye,
and so I hold my silence, hopeless, weak.

But in my favorite dreams you kiss me sweet
and chase the looming rainclouds from the sky.
