Juuzou x Reader (Tokyo Ghoul/Death Note Crossover)

Chapter XXI: I wonder...

*** Time Skip to Next Day***

     Round. " One."

     Round. "Two." 

     Round." Three."

     Round. "Four... "

      The syllables were slurred as each number left my mouth in a bored mumble. It was currently around 2:00 or so. I can't remember. I had been a while since I last checked the clock and even though there was one right in front of me in the office, I felt to lazy to stop spinning and take a look.

      For once, we had actually finished all of the paperwork that was due on time, and now, I was bored to tears. I came up with the great idea to count how many times I could spin in the chair before either falling out, or getting too dizzy. Whichever came first.

      Round. "Fifteen."

      Round. "Sixteen."

      Round. "Seventeen..."

      The room was silent aside from the white noise provided by the clock on the wall, and the slight squeak my chair made every time it turned back around. 

     Round. "Twenty-five."

     Round. "Twenty-six."

     Round. "Twenty-seven."

      'Ugh! How long has it been, anyway? They went out to get donuts, not solve world hunger.' My thoughts were the only thing keeping me awake as I continued to count. My eye lids were becoming heavy and threatening to close. 

    "Fifty-seven... Fifty-eight... Fifty-nine. Six-"

BANG!

     The office door was slammed open to reveal both my partners standing in the doorway. My eyes widened and I jumped up, looking at the large box of donuts that was currently in my significant other's hands. 

     "Yay! Whatcha, get?" I ask, excitedly.

      Honestly, I was just happy to have someone else around. I was starting to get dizzy. Juuzou giggles before telling me each and every type that they had brought back from the shop.

    "And here, I remember you saying something about liking the cream-filled ones, so I picked this one out for you!" he says with a bright eyed smile.

     "Aw, thanks, Stitches." I say, before grabbing it and placing a light kiss on his forehead.

     We both laugh before I hear a deep chuckle from beside us. 

    'Right... not the only ones here.'  I look up to see Shinohara taking off his jacket and hanging it on the back of his desk chair. 

    "You know, you two really do make a cute couple." he smiles at us, walking over to Juuzou, and rubbing the top of his head.

      I blush, looking away as I hear Juuzou giggle, once again.

     "What's wrong, (y/n)-chan? No need to be embarrassed." he teases, giving me a smug smile. 

     "Shut up, baka." I mumble before he leans over, giving me a sweet kiss. 

     I blush even more, knowing that Shinohara is still watching us. They both laugh at my reaction as I roll my eyes and take a bite of my donut. 

     "You two..." Shinohara says, shaking his head.

     "Alright, I'll be back. And don't forget, meeting at 3:30." He reminds us.
