Make sure he doesn't meet Iris, you repeat in your head. As an ariolater, you can foretell the future and predict omens. Usually, these omens only benefit you and your future. You love Maven, you really do. And you want him all for yourself. You know Maven is going to marry Iris. You know that after that... nevermind. You just don't want Maven to go down that route. You'll lead him down the right path, make sure he's safe.

"Stay here... with me," you hold his hands as you bring him closer to you. He looks you in the eye with a small smile.

"I have to go." He tries to move away. Your grip on him tightens. You never tell me any of your plans, you think. Trust me, please.

"(Y/N)," he lets out, a little more irritated. How can I convince him to stay? Oh jeez, are you really doing this? You have an idea.

"I love you a lot, I really do! Please don't leave me!" You cry out, forcing him into a tight hug. You let out a small please before you feel Maven's grip on you: hugging you as tight as you can. He's quiet, his hands are hot, it scares you. He's obviously thinking, you don't want to interrupt him.

"I'll stay," Maven whispers. You sniff, now realizing that tears are going down your face.

Happy ending amirite.
