Shinazugawa Genya | Hostile Protection Part 2

I honestly wanted to make a part 2, too.

Requested by multiple people :]

Warning! Minor Swearing.

~*~
Slowly, you make your way back to the Butterfly Mansion, kicking up small rocks scattered on the ground. Even though it wasn't your problem, you still felt pretty bad about Genya.

You pick up the pace in your walking, going inside the mansion to try to spot Genya or Sanemi. Trying to not make yourself as suspicious as possible, you relax your body, doing things that are... normal and definitely not suspicious.

You made your way towards Genya's room, leaning up against the wall. It'll be weird if you open the door randomly, so you just listen for a moment. There was nothing just by listening. You gave his door a knock and waited a few seconds. No response.

Your other option is to try Sanemi's room. Now, this was pretty much a life or death situation at this point, since Sanemi could pretty much 'kill you.' Just by listening, you could hear there was an argument going on in there.

It sounded like Sanemi was doing most of the shouting. It was so loud that it felt like it was going on right in front of you. A bit curious, you listen to more of the argument, closely. You could tell who was speaking, just by their tone.

“Nemi, please. I've learned my lesson, I won't do it again.” The wavery tone on the other side of the door sounded like Genya was on the verge of tears, or was already crying. His voice was much lower.

“Don't 'Nemi' me, Genya. You're out of warnings.” The other voice was deeper, much more threatening than Genya's. Sanemi was on the verge of snapping. “Tell me, how long were you keeping this a secret from me?” Sanemi questioned.

“Um.. a few days?” There was a pause of silence after Genya spoke. “W...weeks.” Genya spoke up again, his tone dropping even more. “Months, but I swear I learned my lesso—”

“Genya.” Sanemi said his brother's name with a scowl. “You know damn right you disobeyed me.” From what you heard, it sounded like Sanemi got up from a seat, kicking something to the side a little. These words weren't even for you, but they hurt. Eventually, you decided to help Genya's back, even if it meant getting hurt for it.

You put your hand on the loose doorknob, turning the handle a bit quickly. “You LYING son of a bitc—” Sanemi cut off his words looking around his shoulder. You entered the room, finding Sanemi holding Genya's shirt collar with one hand, his other hand balled into a fist. Genya looked over his brother's hand, tears escaping his eyes still as one side of his nose was bleeding a bit.

“—hhhh...” Sanemi sighed under his breath, looking at you with a squint. “...Y/N. Who told you to have the damn right to open my door?!” Sanemi dropped Genya on the floor, a bit harshly as Genya whimpered softly, rubbing his neck as it grew a bit sore. “I heard enough that was said.” You respond back, though Sanemi was much bigger and stronger than you, he wouldn't really harm a person that badly, let alone kill someone.

Sanemi paused. “Were you.. spying on us?” Sanemi muttered, a bit confused at that time. You flinch at his guess. “N..no!” You stammer, slowly make your way towards Genya. “Y/N, just leave. I don't have time to deal with your shitty lies.” Sanemi rubbed his face, Genya softly shaking his head side to side. “Sanemi.. can she stay? Please?” Genya lowered his head, his eyes on his bigger brother.

A scoff escaped Sanemi's throat. “No. Now leave, god dammit!” Sanemi scowled, forcing you out of his room. “Genya—” You tried to speak up, getting one more look at him before Sanemi shut his door in front of your face, locking it this time.

“What a rude brother.” You mutter under your breath, getting a cup of cool water to soothe and calm your nerves. For me, I could never live with someone like him. That'll be a nightmare. How does Genya even survive? An irritated scoff exited your mouth before you took a couple sips of your water.

A few minutes went by as you sat in a chair, trying to calm your body down. Eventually, Sanemi's door opened as Genya walked out of it, limping a bit. “Ow.. ow.. ouch..” Genya muttered under his breath, getting a cup of water. You watched him painfully taking sips of water, getting another refill from afar. Genya eventually spotted you watch him on the way back.

“Y/N— ow.” Genya tensed at his aching leg, leaning up against a wall for support. You quickly got up from your seat, helping Genya out. “Genya.. I'm so sorry, I got you into trouble, didn't I?” You mutter with your head down in guilt. Genya quickly shook his head, rubbing his sore neck still. “No, it's not yours at all. It's all mine. All my fault.” Genya paused, coughing a bit.

“My brother gave me lots of chances, and I ruined them all.” Genya rubbed his face distressfully with a shaky sigh. “I hate myself..” He added on with a small sob. You flick his arm with a bit of force to get his attention. You gave him a frown, upset at his beliefs. “Genya. Listen to me now. You're not dumb nor stupid, you're human and people make mistakes. Lots.” You pause, taking another breath.

“Don't beat youself up because of that, don't hate yourself becuase I know you don't. If your brother's making you act like this, then.. screw him.” You lower your voice on that last part, shaking your head. “Don't worry, Genya. The only thing we probably need to worry about is your condition.” You eye Genya up and down concerningly. “Wanna go to the medical room?” You ask as Genya shook his head. “No, I'll be fine. I can hea—” He cut his own words off as you paused.

“I'll.. be back.” Genya rose to his feet, quickly entering his room. “Genya, wait..” You try to get his attention, though he already closed his door. You let out a sigh. I hope Genya will be alright. You think, entering the garden of the mansion for a few minutes.

Minutes went by as the sun slowly started to set. You rise to your feet, walking towards the mansion to run into Genya once again. “Oh, hello again.” You give a smile, looking at his condition a bit closely now. “Oh, looks like you're better now. That's good.” You give a nod of approval.

“Yeah.. I um, went to the medical room like you told me.” Genya spat out a lie, dipping his head. He looked pretty nervous once again, his face already flushed in a red color as his eyes were wide open. “Are.. you alright, Genya?” You blink as he gave a nod. “I want to tell you something.. Y/N. Just.. don't tell my brother.” Genya lowered his tone, along with his head before speaking again.

“It's been a couple of months and um.. ever since I laid eyes on you I- uh.. um..” Genya's body froze up as he grew more nervous as he butchered the words he was going to say. You got his message as a bigger smile wiped across your face. “I love you too, Genya.” You calmly say as Genya almost let out a small squeak of shock.

“Wh-wh-wha? How d..did you know what I was going to s...s..say?” Genya caught his breath before awfully stammering over his words. “I saw it in your face, the first time you took me to that amazing place.” You chuckle softly to yourself. “I um..” Genya's eyes refused to stay directly on your face. “Lemme guess, that was a date?” You cross your arms with a grin.

“Um.. yes.” Genya paused. “Wait, how did you—” Genya blinked, his face only showing lots of confusion. “It's simple, Genya. I have experience with these kinds of things.” You give Genya a side hug, before giving him a full, tight squeeze of a hug. Genya was still in the state of shock as he hesitantly accepted your hug.

“Thank you.. Y/N.” Genya muttered under his breath. You lifted your head up to see his face more clearly. “Hm? What do you mean?” You tilt your head. “Thank you for everything. Trying to protect me from my brother, all the way down to accepting my confession. I..” Genya lowered his head, squeezing you a bit tighter.

“You're really a nice person, Y/N. I.. I.. love you for that..” Genya sniffled, sobbing of joy this time. Those words Genya spoke rang throughout your head. You had this smile that wouldn't drop in this moment. You took a breath, trying to get your emotions under control.

“You're welcome, Genya.”
