Synopsis: A Takumi X Hachi X Nobu story.
Chapter 3: Confrontation
Hachi was at lost. What was she supposed to do? She had Nobu in the room and Takumi wanted to come in. She tried her best to come up with excuses to prevent Takumi to come in. It wasn't as if she didn't like Takumi it was the fact that she knew that both Nobu and Takumi hated each other's guts.
"Well…uh…" Hachi tried saying as she begged for an idea to come up.
"Don't avoid me. After all, you haven't seen me for 4 months. The least you could do is invite me in for coffee." He whispered into her ear as he pushed a strand of her hair behind her ear.
She blushed. She couldn't help it. It was always the same thing whenever Takumi was near. Her heart would flip flop and she would blush from head to toe. She knew Nobu was in the room. She knew that it was going to be hell in a few minutes. She knew all of these things and she still couldn't say no to him.
"Horrendous." Was all she thought to herself. "Please, come in." she said to him. He went through the door and she shut the door behind him. She saw him take a place on the bench across from Nobu. Sparks were flying through each of the young man's eyes.
"Strawberry mochi, my favorite." He said as he took one and ate it before Nobu could protest with the fact that he bought it, specifically, for Hachi.
Nobu sighed. He glanced at Hachi, who was staring at amazement at Takumi for eating her strawberry mochi. He saw her upset being the fact that it was the last mochi on the plate. He knew what was going to come next. After all, he had a similar experience with Hachi when he tried taking the last strawberry mochi from her.
"TAKUMI!" Hachi bellowed.
Takumi was trapped with a half eaten mochi in his mouth. He had never, EVER, seen her yell at him besides during sex. He knew he was in trouble.
"YOU TOOK THE LAST STRAWBERRY MOCHI! MY STRAWBERRY MOCHI!" She exclaimed. He was shaking in fear in his shoes. He had never seen Hachi in a bad mood and it scared him. He took the half eaten mochi and tried to look innocent.
"Uh, want some mochi?" He tried to smile with white powder around his lips.
"Oh, you are SO buying me new mochi." Hachi replied still glaring at him.
Nobu was just glad he wasn't in the crossfire. He laughed. They both glared. He put his hands in the air trying to look innocent. Then he heard a whimper come out of Hachi. She was crying. All because of strawberry mochi.
"I'll go get you some strawberry mochi." Takumi sighed, surrendering to her tears. He got up, opened the door, and off he went. All Nobu did was stare. What a wonder was Hachi's tears.
She sniffled and went to go prepare some coffee. It wouldn't be too long before Takumi came with the mochi. In the back of her mind she thought she couldn't have had a better plan in making Takumi leave so there'd be no confrontation.
"I'm going to leave now, before he comes back." Nobu said, behind her. She sighed and nodded. He came and hugged him from the back and snuggled into the side of her neck and breathed her essence. She smelled like strawberries and candies. He wanted to tell her he loved her. He wanted to tell her he'd protect her. But, this was not the time. At least, not yet. He didn't want to let her but he eventually did.
When he left, Hachi sighed. She didn't know what to do.
