Chapter 11: Comforts And Threats
(Y/n) pushed the door open with eager excitement, dragging the boy she had latched onto, along with her. The girl was immediately hit by a delectable scent hovering in the air to greet anyone who entered the area with its warm welcome.
"Smells so nice! Was someone cooking in here?" The female gathered the inclinations of the stewing pots placed on burning stoves as small wafts of steam emerge from their closed tops. She approached the steaming goods to receive a more prominent aroma of the brewing food.
"Must have been Chef..." Giovanni approached the stove to check up on the cooking goods and their condition. Once he noted that potatoes were boiling inside the large, circular holder, an immediate idea of an addition popped in his mind. The girl noticed his eyes selectively analysing the pot in consideration before a spark flashed into his optics, incentivising him to approach a large, rectangular structure with passionate excitement.
Upon pulling the handle of the metallic door, a wave of cold air entered the vacancy of the area. The girl looked around to see the fridge's depth and size to compare it to her own small room. She intriguingly watched the male take out numerous vegetables and balance them in one arm while the other worked on closing the door and reaching towards a drawer.
The female carefully assessed him while he worked on lining the goods on the counter before taking down a chopping board. He began mechanically placing each vegetable in an orderly fashion to take a turn on the wooden surface before his hand guided the thin blade of the knife to smoothly slice over the tomatoes, pepper, onions and garlic with unbelievable speed amidst his motions. (Y/n) found herself staring at the boy's expert work as well as the enjoyable atmosphere that emitted from his lifted mood. Giovanni soon took down a pan from the hanging cutlery and items to set it at the stove to simmer.
"(Y/n), please place only the garlic in the pan and don't let it burn." He handed the female a plate of all the chopped up vegetable while he moved over to a different counter to take out a chunk of cheese from a box. (Y/n) hesitantly followed the commanding instructions and only separated the garlic into the frying pan, watching it sizzle and emit a strong odour that failed to actually irritate her eyes.
As Giovanni approached his assistant after a few seconds, he placed down a plate of ground-up cheese before proceeding to stir the cooking onions, adding the rest of the pieces of vegetables into the pan, mixing the goods together into their natural juices and flavours. 'Amazing...he's on fire.' The female stared at the energised movements as the engrossed male flew around the kitchen to emerge with a jar of sauce while checking up on each cooking ingredient.
Giovanni added the creamy substance into the pan before stirring all of the products to allow their relishing taste to combine. "A simple lunch." He quickly took out a pair of large plates from one of the cupboards, placing them down to occupy his hands with tongs that submerged into the boiling pot of water to retrieve a softened, heated potato. "I hope you're as hungry as you said, or else I'll be dining for two." He joked, stealthily placing the malleable vegetable on the chopping board where he slowly applied pressure with his knife to the centre of the food, cutting through it like butter.
Once satisfied with the result, he placed the halved pieces on either plate, proceeding to distribute the sauce between the two platters before finishing the look off by topping the warm potato off with the shredded cheese. (Y/n) felt her stomach relentlessly clutching in pained desperation to receive the hot food. She swallowed down the coat of hungry saliva, withholding herself from promptly snatching the plate away from the skilful boy.
"Perfetto! Hope this is fitting to your taste." He considerately smiled at the hungry girl, holding out her share of the lunch by the prepared plate. The female gratefully took it and dug around to quickly find utensils with which to devour the meal. Finding the cutlery necessary, she began gladly diving into the lunch, allowing the experience to seize her.
"Ah! It's so amazing! The sauce is so delicious and the potato is so soft and tasty! The food is beautiful." The explosion of flavour danced in the girl's mouth, delighting her taste buds with the balance of succulence and combinations. Giovanni allowed a relieving smile spread to his lips before he casually began dining on his work. "This is great, Giovanni! How did learn to cook like this?" The male humorously began fidgeting as his thoughts gathered.
"You could say I got better with accidental practice." He shrugged off the inquiry as he enjoyed his finished product. "Wish I could say the same for school as well." (Y/n) snickered in amusement at his cynical comment before proceeding to keep at her eating pace.
As the pair were amidst their lunches, a door that had silently been situated at the very end of the kitchen flew open to emit harsh and laboured grunts as heavy footsteps echoed inside the silenced room. The girl cautiously watched as a large shadow appeared from within the opening, slowly stretching through the side of the room right before its possessor attended the scope of the interior.
A matured male heavily emerged from the separate area, carrying a heavy bag on his shoulder while seemingly unnoticing the company that had let themselves in. The man's irritated expression deeply rooted itself into his face as he seemed more than tired over the heavy labour he was forced to endure.
"Chef, do you need help?" As the man proceeded to throw the bag down onto one of the counters, he turned around to finally realise the pair's presence. As his eyes focused on the two, his expression softened to one of a friendly welcome.
"Master Giovanni, did you help yourself to the food Sir?" The boy seemed slightly reluctant to give the self-conscious response and resorted to guiltily nodding. The man seemed far from surprised but neither did a scolding attitude emerge, to the boy's wonderment. "I hope it was to the liking of your young lady as well." (Y/n) almost sniggered between her meal as the male beside her took a calm approach to the situation by shaking his head in denial.
"No Chef, (Y/n) is temporarily replacing Ms (L/n). She wanted to have lunch." The man dusted off his hand before slight recognition settled at the additional information of the newcomer's identity.
"Oh yes! You were the new staff member Zak told me about. Welcome to the house of troubles." The man joked, reaching out his hand in a presentable gesture.
The girl accordingly exchanged the gripping handshake. "My name is (Y/n), I'm happy to work beside you."
"I'm Chef, it's a pleasure to make your acquittance." The man happily smiled, managing to bring a warmth to the atmosphere that added to the heat of the cooking.
"Oh haha, so do you just not like people referring to your real name?" The girl lightly laughed, earning a reciprocating chuckle from the older male.
"Well, I wouldn't really have a choice in either case." His humorous tone slightly confused the girl at the context of the joke while Giovanni chuckled along at the unknown entertainment. The man noticed her slow reaction and proceeded to try and clear up the misunderstanding of his amusement. "Because I am called Chef."
"...Wait, what?"
"My name. It's literally Chef. I'm a Chef who's named Chef." The two males chuckled at the common misconception, while the girl was left to roll the gears of her brain as she finally comprehended the information.
"Oh...that turned out conveniently." Chef positively nodded in agreement.
"Well, my father was a very intuitive man." As the staff member seemed immersed in the pleasant exchange in words, the door of the kitchen soon swung open in disturbance as a short figure burst in with zeal pouring from his very body language while dragging in a larger form behind him.
"I smell food! I want it!" Gennai jumped up and down as his detecting eyes scanned across the room, completely bypassing the individuals staring at him, only for his gaze to stop midway as another pair of eyes glared back at him.
"No! Master Gennai, you leave! I have forbidden you from entering the kitchen again." Chef proceeded to try and push the boy out, only for him to retaliate against his set decision.
"On what charge?!" The male protested, earning a challenging scowl from the cook.
"Last time you came in here I was missing five forks, three butter knives, and a pan lid. What would you possibly need a pan lid for, without the pan?! Please leave." The older male was half way through pushing the refusing boy out of the door when a hand was gently placed on his shoulder to calm the worker down.
"Chef, I'll look after my little brother. If something ends up missing you can blame it on me." Eban confidently smiled at the member of staff, progressively moulding his perceptions until he let go of the squirming boy to let him scuttle into the room.
"I'm trusting you Master Eban." The blond nodded at his duty as he turned his attention to the rest of the group.
"(Y/n), were you hungry? I would have brought you here earlier if you had told me." He gave the girl a concerned smirk, checking over to seen any change in her exterior for any signs of malnourishment.
"It's fine, I didn't even realise how hungry I was until Giovanni came along. He made this great lunch!" The male in question chuckled as he brightly smiled from the compliment, placing his emptied plate in the sink.
"I see...so you chose to eat with him." Eban allowed his unreadable sights to glide towards the boy who began washing up the used platter and cutlery. Realising his focus becoming tinted in a murky vision of darker colours, Eban focused back on the eating female.
"This lunch was honestly not my best work, I made a cake yesterday that I'm quite proud of though. Wanna see?" Giovanni directed his question towards the eagerly nodding girl while Eban remained silent as he analysed the unfolding situation.
Giovanni proceeded to head towards the fridge where he retrieved a large plate that held an elegantly decorated white cake, with pieces of strawberries and blobs of icing scattered over the top in patterned fineness. "Wow, you have golden hands Giovanni, this looks amazing!" The girl couldn't help but admire the delicately done job as her mouth prepared to celebrate with the sweet food.
The complimented male gladly grinned at the praise as he could only try and respond with humbleness. "It's just years of practice." Eban carefully watched the girl's impressed features lighting up at the prospect of tasting the dessert, feeling a welding up sensation at his gut as all her attention was put towards the other boy and his talents.
The female was handed a piece of the cake and with gusto proceeded to devour the treat. The moment the icing hit her tongue with the sweet and lightly moistened pastry, she was immediately sucked in by the flavour of the smoothly creamed strawberries and the hinting fruits. "This is amazing." She chirped out, unable to hold in her admiration of the taste.
"Master Gennai, will you please sit down, I already gave you your lunch." Chef attempted to settle the energised boy down as he kept clamouring around the kitchen in search of an object of interest to pinch.
No sooner had his sights landed on a cookie jar, he felt an arm wrapping around his throat, restraining him like the reins of a horse. The rapacious boy yelped and squirmed under the hampering grip of his older sibling as he was led to the table to be settled down to eat his desired food. "Now Gennai, sit here and I'll let you have my old note book, ok little brother?" The golden eyed boy pouted at his restriction but was driven through the promise of a gift, beginning to quickly devour his handed lunch while Eban petted the boy's head in content.
"Thank you Master Eban...now if you all excuse me, I have to go down and break my back getting more bags of sugar and salt." Chef annoyingly moaned out his disdain, heading towards the door situated at the opposite end of the room.
"I'll come and help you out." Giovanni volunteered, following in the grateful cook's tracks towards the basement.
As the two disappeared, Eban focused his attention back to the girl beside him on the table. "(Y/n), have you been having a good day? You haven't been given any trouble, have you?" The female regarded his heavily concerned vocals with a shake of the head.
"No everything has been going well. Not too much trouble." Though she chose to exclude Lilito's antics, she gave him a sincere response, letting a thankful smile form on his bright features.
"I'm glad. I wouldn't want you to feel unwanted here, especially when It's been so enjoyable talking with you." Through his smooth vocals came a genuine and optimistic tone filled with honesty as the girl was more than flattered at his kind words.
However, his expression slumped as he felt the sleeve of his shirt being tugged by a third individual. "Eban look! This potato looks like that one toy from that movie about living toys!" Gennai waved the look-alike food in front of the disinterested face of his sibling.
"Yes Gennai, it's very similar..." He turned back towards the girl the moment his words left his mouth to focus his grinning features towards the female that caught his interest. Gennai begrudgingly retracted and pouted, looking at the plate with irritation at the lack of attention he desired. "(Y/n) let me try and guess what you like doing as a hobby. You might be surprised at-"
"Eban look! Does this chicken look undercooked?!" Gennai frantically shook the male by his shirt, slightly irritating his sibling's composure.
"No Gennai, the chicken is white on the inside. It's perfectly fine..." The blond dismissively spoke to his little brother, urging him on to continue with the pestering behaviour, hungry for more regard.
"Eban look! This-"
"Gennai, look at this dog tag necklace." Eban slowly waved the silver slab attached to the small chain from left to right, enticing his sibling into silence. "Look little brother, it's so shiny~"
Gennai gasped at the reflective quality of the item as his bright sunny orbs widened in igniting interest. "I want!" He began reaching out to take the item, manoeuvring his arms in flailing motions, attempting to grab for the treasure.
"You want? Go get it!" The blond flung the necklace across the room, making the dark haired male immediately crawl out of his chair to scurry towards the area where the chain had connected with the ground.
"Well that's degrading." (Y/n) commented, watching as the jubilant boy savoured his new find.
"He doesn't even know it, don't worry." The blond waved off the boy's antics before an angry grunt emerged from the hoarder.
"This isn't even real silver!" He complained, easily bending the accessory between his fingers, demonstrating its elasticity. "It's just some cheap, imitation plastic!"
"Oh, my bad then." Eban apologised with a sarcastic undertone and self aware smile. Gennai let out a low growl as his brother proceeded to occupy his time with the girl beside him.
"This is so tasty, the strawberry jam, the vanilla icing and then a chocolate layer! Giovanni has very nice taste, you need to try this." (Y/n) excitedly mused, taking a piece of the cake with her fork and handing the cutlery to the boy.
Eban's present smile quickly disappeared as his face lost its colour to the sight of the food. He felt his words clogging, unable to respond properly to the gesture as his mind began racing. "Well, that...I-I don't, uhh..." The boy's squeamish attitude further confused the girl as she insisted for him that it was alright. Eban kept switching his weary sights from the girl to the offered food, having an internal battle over his better judgement.
"What's wrong? Don't you like cake?" She asked the male, concerned her gesture might have been inadequate for him.
"Yeah Eban, you don't want to offend her. Why not try the cake?" Gennai piped up, carefully scrutinising his brother as he snapped the fake accessory in an aggravated display.
The blond sibling gave him a warning in the form of a silencing glare. "Gennai, no one asked for your input." The scolded boy simply huffed his dismissal, still intently focused on the decision of his sibling. Eban looked back at the proposed fork and hesitantly took the cutlery with shaking fingers before looking towards the female for confirmation. "You...really like this cake?"
The girl cocked her eyebrow at the question and simply nodded her positive answer, seeming to further make the boy's choice difficult. Eban stared at the dessert placed at the tip of the fork and felt his heart sinking at the mere sight of it.
(Y/n) attention was soon grabbed as she heard footsteps entering the room from where her last company had descended. Giovanni threw the sack of what she supposed was the salt, before turning his sights towards the group. "That looks heavy." (Y/n) estimated only to have the boy shake his head.
"Nah, it's not as bad as it looks." He gave her a confirming smile before his expression sunk, noticing the struggling boy that was reluctantly forwarding the the cutlery towards his mouth. "Eban, weren't you allergic to strawberries?"
The blond froze in place, the food at the entrance of his mouth before looking over towards the girl that stared at him with disbelieving, wide eyes. She immediately slapped the forked out of his hand, sending it flying off in an arbitrary direction, urging Gennai to quickly crawl towards the missing treasure.
"What's wrong with you?! Why didn't you tell me?" (Y/n) immediately pushed the large plate with the rest of the whole cake away from the allergic boy and quickly checked for any possibilities of contact he would have with the fruit. "Do you have a death wish?!"
Eban glanced down at the table in a guilty manner before attempting to lift the mood up with his placid smile. "You seemed so happy to give some to me, I didn't want to upset you."
"Next time upset me! It's a life and death situation after all!" The male attempted to wave off the deeply concerned female's solicitude.
"Don't worry, it would take quite a while before anything life threatening happened." Attempting to comfort the situation, he disregarded the entire incidence, making the girl wallow in guilt.
"Why didn't you just say so, I feel like I nearly killed you." She complained, slouching slightly in shame from her pestering mannerisms and ignorance.
"You seemed to really like it. So I...wanted to enjoy what you enjoy. It's disappointing that I didn't manage to quite share that luxury with you." He solemnly lowered his gaze as a lamenting tone took him over.
The girl sighed, relieved she had not caused a health issue with the boy due to her pestering. "Mi dispiace, Eban. I shouldn't have brought it out around you." Giovanni approached the boy to apologetically gesture for forgiveness, while his housemate simply responded with casual calmness.
Soon an older individual reentered the room, carrying his own share of spices from the basement to pile them on top of the other bags. Chef looked towards the disheartened group with a bemused visage. "Would any of you like anything to eat?"
Giovanni immediately perked at the offer before pacing up to the cook with excitement. "If it's not too much to ask!"
"I need to go and get the rest of the laundry." (Y/n) declined, departing from the table to leave the room.
"And my appetite is killed so I'll get out of your way." Eban swiftly stood out of his chair to rush toward the door before the girl had completely disappeared from his vantage point.
"No, wait! Don't leave me with him!" The staff member loudly pleaded, grabbing a hold of the younger sibling as he saw the exemption to begin scavenging the area for picking out new items for his collection.
Eban closed the door, pushing off the begging cries to the back of his conscience as he looked around to spot for the female he had run after. As he noticed the girl walking down the corridor, rapidly picking up the pace as he gradually sprinted towards her. Enclosing the gap between them, he promptly grabbed the female's hand, startling her into swivelling back to see her companion.
"Going out to the park." He blurted out, further bringing puzzlement to the scene as he proceeded to tighten his grip on her joint, making sure to keep her at one spot in case he had frightened her with the unexplainable outburst. "What you like doing...as a hobby. You enjoy going out to the park and visiting it every chance you get. You sometimes get a bit lazy whenever you're at home and look for any excuse to give yourself to stay in. But once you go out, you seem to get more motivated to visit the park, especially when you're with the people closest to you...it's a place you use to gather your thoughts." The girl stared at the boy, trying to deny each hitting point he had made over her mannerisms and habits, feeling her whole character completely exposed to his deep green eyes and correct words.
"But...how did you know all this...not even I like to admit that to myself?" She turned to fully regard the boy face to face, her eyes filling with a burning curiosity. Eban smiled at her yearning bewilderment before placing his index finger gently to his lips in a lulling fashion.
"I'll tell you my little trick if you allow me to help you with your work." He leaned in towards the girl to entice her with his offer using his soothing voice and flowing tone as an addition to the temptation while (Y/n) considered his charity.
As the girl seemed stuck with searching for a catch in the innocent proposition, the door to the kitchen flung open as a shorter figure ran out, being followed by an aggravated voice from within. "Get your food from somewhere else from now on!" The annoyed shrieks of the Chef vibrated through the surrounding area as Gennai huffed out his irked nerves.
"Fine! I don't care!" He snapped back before turning his attention to the silver spoon he had managed to pinch, admiring the work of his catch with a satisfied smile. "I got what I wanted...huh?" As the rapacious male looked up to identify the pair staring at him, his glad features disappeared as his stared back at the two.
His bright eyes intently focused on his sibling's hand that was still firmly clasped around the female's, feeling his pupils stinging from the boring glare that seethed into their connecting joints as though expecting his condemning scowl to burn through their locked limbs. His tightly clenched fists dug his nails into the palms of his hands, while he remained unfazed by the supposed painful sensation as he continued sending a scrutinising gaze their way. His brow furrowed into a deep grimace, hoping his eyes were tricking him of the sight ahead.
Gennai grinned at his sibling before unsuccessfully tackling the boy from the side. "Big brother, help me hide this from Chef!" He snatched the blond's gripping hand away from the female's wrist as he shoved the utensil in his freed palm. "He'll definitely come looking for it. Go and bury it somewhere!" He frantically pointed towards a direction, indicating the fortuitous choice of the unknown hiding area.
Eban vexingly glowered at his brother for the unwanted interruption, wishing for nothing more than to have him disappear from the scene. "Gennai, please let me talk to (Y/n). I was just about to hear what she had to-"
"Come on! There's no time! He might realise I took it any second now!" The male urged on his older sibling, further grinding his last stretched nerve to an abraded thinness.
"I'll give this back to Chef and when I come back I'll help (Y/n). Excuse me." Eban sternly held his stiff and scolding tone directed towards the mischievous and disobedient younger boy.
The blond stomped past the dark haired male while Gennai made a few attempts to hold him back with words. As Eban reentered the kitchen, (Y/n) chuckled at the spectacle she had just witnessed. "You guys sure give one another problems-"
"Shut up." The female's amused expression quickly switched to one of surprised confusion as the voice that had registered into her perception was much deeper and stronger than what she had grown accustomed to, from the whinny boy.
Blinking a few times to regain some sort of grasp at reality, she was further taken aback by the unconventionally serious and darkly rooted glare being sent her way. Gennai's golden irises reflected a much more distorted image in his view, holding a severely hostile posture towards the shocked female.
He took a step forward, nearing the frozen girl as she remained in situated surprise from the irregular change in his attitude. He leaned in to give her a scornful gaze with his analytical glare, enforcing his charge over their conversation. "Don't come near him again." An undertone of a meaningful threat loomed in his voice, sending unpleasant spikes poking the girl's back. "Don't try to take big brother away from me, do you understand?"
His inquiring statement seemed to be awaiting for her response, refusing to take away his critical sights from the speechless girl. (Y/n) could only give her reply in the form of a hesitant nod as she kept her body tightly clenched from the unwavering posture he held.
"Good...leave then." He firmly commanded her, withholding an air of dominance while the girl could only stare in wonder when her nervousness refused to subside. "I said leave." Despite his level tone and calm volume, there were clear indications in his speech that bled through his aggravated manner.
(Y/n) hesitated for the first few seconds before her feet reacted to the brutally callous demands. She quickly walked off, leaving the shorter boy's hostile features to state towards her disappearing form before she had completely left the area, allowing his facade to return as he cheerfully greeted the person leaving the kitchen.
(Y/n) rubbed the unsettling nerves on her arms, trying to bring a sense of comfort into her unsteady thoughts. 'What was that about...? He acted completely differently from before, what even happened there...?' She anxiously made her way down the corridor, stopping in her tracks once she realised her feet had mechanically driven her to her standpoint while she subconsciously had wondered away from the male that had intimidated her.
She looked around herself to recognise the surroundings she had ended up in. Noticing Lilito's room as a landmark to navigate herself, the girl shook her head in annoyance that she had strayed so far without even noticing. She placed her hand on her head, wondering, pondering and contemplating her next moves as she was unsure how to react to the threat she was given.
'God, for a short guy he impelled his demands very forcefully...' As the female prepared to scout around for any laundry that needed to be taken, her priorities were driven to a halt as she noticed a door further away, having a slightly more ajar frame as it seemed to be held unaccounted for. She looked around to spot any sign of life, as though she were scouring for watchful eyes that would witness her indulging her curiosity.
Taking light steps towards the unusual sight, she approached the open door to scrutinise over its content. This was Akai's room. Her presence was clearly unwanted in that forbidden environment and only her darkest imagination could figure what would be done to her if she were to be discovered pushing her boundaries inside. The female made another show of frantically scattering her fearful sights around the area, isolating herself further as she saw no other member of the household.
The air thickened with uncertainty, wrapping her fingers around the unlocked frame and lightly pulling it, feeling her pulse at the tip of her fingers from the warry movements. Once fully opened, she stepped within the verboten surroundings to allow her inquisitiveness to be finally quenched.
Upon entering, the female was washed over with, not a wave of disappointment, but further intrigued as she gazed around the under-furnished room. The space seemed extensively bare and well kept, as though prepared to be presented to a person for rent. Much like the other rooms of the males, the quarters held a balcony, a single bed, door that (Y/n) concluded to be a wardrobe, an extention to a bathroom and a single desk and chair situated in front of a window. However, unlike the other personal bedrooms, the space was naked of any indication a person had lived in it.
'Well...you'd think he's living in seclusion. There really is nothing here that would make the room his own...' Commenting on her mind, she assessed the quality of the interior as she was further surprised at how neat everything was kept. Despite the desolation, no dust particle had come in sight and the freshened smell seemed to elude to a newly tidied act. 'Looks like he does a better job at cleaning than I can ever do...this is...quite interesting.' Standing in the heart of the bedroom, she surveyed the work as her original excessive views of the aggressive boy seemed to change with each passing second.
(Y/n) unintentionally yelped as fingers curled around her wrist in a clenching, grasping and squeezing clutch that dug deeply into her joint and flesh. "What are you doing in here?!" She was spun around to look into the enflamed red eyes she had hoped to avoid during her snooping. Akai's deeply infuriated vocals brought up a heart wrenching moment where her beating muscle had briefly stopped. (Y/n)'s mind crumbled as his pressuring orbs smouldered the last of her confidence into shame and fear.
Akai's expression slowly shifted as he unwillingly bared his teeth like a vicious animal that was preparing to bite the head of its prey off, withholding a feral growl as he further leered at the female. Squeezing her hand in his merciless grip, he immediately began heading towards the door, literally dragging the girl like a rag doll as she made failures to keep up.
"A-Akai, I'm sorry. Please, just calm down-"
"Didn't I make myself clear?! You're not allowed inside this room, or were you just looking for a reason to get your skull bashed in?!" (Y/n) tried to block out all the morbid threats the male continued to assault her ear with, only bringing more focus to her thrashed joint as she felt as though the carpus holding her wrist would snap away, tearing her hand completely clean off.
"A-Akai please calm down!" She desperately pleaded as her bones were heard crushing and cracking under his tormenting clasp as he kept pulling and yanking the limb, sending pained signals throughout her entire arm. "Please stop, that hurts!"
At the sound of her cry, the male fell silent, only his enraged features acting as a display to the sweltering anger within. The male soon unclasped his hand, allowing the girl the relief she had been needing before she proceeded to be pulled by the back of her shirt. Soon she was quickly dragged to the entrance in unimaginable speed, being intentionally thrown to the ground outside by the boiling boy.
(Y/n) exclaimed for her aching body that had harshly connected with the floor by the momentum the male had caused. She shuffled away as she noticed the boy glaring down at her from the doorway, seeing her reflected image in his crimson eyes as her entire form was drenched in the red of his hues.
"Next I'll drag you out by your head." Akai reentered his quarters, preparing to enclose his area to the outside world, right before regarding the girl one last time, "And the body won't be attached." Slamming the door after his final threat, this left the girl in a tense silence as she used the lonesome time gap to gather her thoughts.
Lightly massaging her hurt wrist, she attempted to build her fallen moral back. 'Well...can't say I didn't deserve that...'
