catch-22 II Sano manjiro x reader ~ Mikey x reader

chapter 12

'' About that, we need to discuss the details of the new mission''. stated Sanzu with a low tone yet very serious.

  ''we're discussing that at night, with all the members present''. claimed manjiro.

'' do you want me to arrange a meeting for tonight?''. asked the pink-haired male still holding his serious look.

'' yeah make it past midnight .''

'' will do, boss''.

'' you may go now.''

''I'll excuse myself too, boss.'' added (y/n) with her usual confident tone.

as soon as she said this, the blond-haired male stood up from his seat. he walked to where the girl was standing and took her hand in his. it was a hand that spoke of the kind of precision that only the care of someone dear bring and the (h/c)'s female felt sweet electricity that went down her spine when her skin met the pale one of Mikey who held her hand firmly as if his life's fate was determined by it.

he started walking out of his conference room, passing by the hallways that lead them to a very large yet empty and gloomy room.

the blond guy stepped into the room and when he let go of (y/n)'s hand she felt like she was losing a part of her, the same feeling when you have been in the sea for too long and you forget the feeling of land, but (y/n) tried to remain calm as much as possible and to remember how the land feels like again, but in her mind, the only thing she was wanting is to keep holding Mikey's hand, it felt warm and safe the total contradiction of how pale it looked.

'stop thinking like that... do you want him to hold your hand again or do u want to gain your grandma's trust and kill him, you're here for work not for holding hands, get your shit together (y/n)'. the girl slapped herself mentally trying to wake up from her deep thoughts.

''(y/n), what are you thinking about that much, I already asked you to enter''. said Manjiro with a little smile on his lips, and when the girl saw that angel-like smile on the thin lips of the blond-haired guy she swore that she felt her heart-stopping, she didn't even know how she bore to let those words out.

'' Sorry, I was just lost in thoughts.''

'' aha, I thought you hated me because I forced you to be in our gang so you chose to ignore me''. he explained while he signed to the girl in front of him to sit on the edge bed that was located in the corner of the room, and she obeyed.

she replied while her eyes followed his figure '' I was already searching for a job as you knew back in the coffee shop... so I guess this is fine''.

he nodded his head to every word the girl said, and he walked toward her and in his left hand, he hold the taiyaki and the drinks they ordered in the traditional Japanese shop back in the suburbs of Tokyo and couldn't finish because of the emergency that happened, and on the other hand, he had a black fabric.

as he came near (y/n) he handed her what was in his hands and announced.'' it's funny how you were just going there to relax but you ended up in here, I'm sorry if I stole your vacation''.

'' just don't... I was the one who wanted to offer help.'' Declared (y/n) with a sweet voice.

the blond-haired male gently lifted the girl's chin by his thin fingertip which made them look into each other's eyes and muttered.''I will promise you one thing, as long as you're in Bonten I'll keep you safe.'' he was silent for a moment but then continued. '' those are some of my clothes since yours are all stained with Ran's blood.''

'' thank you, you really don't have to... I would've just borrowed some from kakucho-Kun.''

''Just take mine.''

'' Okay... thank you.''

''I was wanting to ask you to eat with me the taiyaki but I know you're tired and we have a meeting tonight so you may go to rest, and your room is the one next to me.''

''then I'll excuse myself out, thanks again.''

she said this and went out of the room, holding closely the clothes of Manjiro and feeling the sweet scent of him, not knowing that there was a third person eavesdropping on them.
