Hello my dear readers! Before we start on this chapter, I have several announcements to make: The request of Yosuke, Arashiyama, and Osamu is on temporary delay while I figure out how to write a love triangle without the characters being too ooc (goddammit Mikumo why can't you just be the blushing schoolgirl I desperately need you to be?!). Sorry , Ri-Ryn! I'll keep trying. Also, I broke my arm when an idiot decided to RIDE A FUCKING BIKE at top speed when they rounded a corner. And the fact he lived two apartments over didnt make things less awkward. So now I can barely type, I finished this story with my left hand. So yeah, delay on the story.
Two, now I have a good amount of requests to keep me nicely occupied for a while, I would like to ask that you guys only request a maximum of two requests per review (Yes. I see the humongous, gaping hole that is the effing flaw in my plan, but I am willing to try this out for now)
"Hey, Hyuse."
"Jin."
"Have you decided what you want from your bet yet? It's been, what, a month now?"
"Three weeks."
"So... did you decide? You're making me nervous!" Jin laughed in his easy, carefree way that contradicted his words.
Hyuse paused. "Not yet."
"Hmm," Jin looked st him closely, as though scanning him for any unknown and unvoiced thoughts. "Okay, then. Well, I have this new book I wanna read, so tell me when you've decided." With a smile and a bag of fried rice crackers, the nineteen year old walked away, whistling to himself. Hyuse was left alone to his thoughts, contemplating on what to do with the bet, and thinking of a certain teen from Meeden.
Jin.
Yes, Jin, the person that had fought him, and was one of the main reasons for the mission's defeat and his capture- shouldn't Hyuse loathe him?
They were nothing alike- Hyuse was cool and reserved, while Jin was flamboyant, talkative, and so damn optomistic. He was from Aftokrator, Meeden's enemy. The only reason that Hyuse got to be around Jin was because Jin was one of the people who were supposed to guard him.
That's right. Hyuse was a fucking prisoner, and Jin was his jailer.
Stop having your goddamn thoughts and get Iampryis back already.
What made him feel anything besides hatred towards Jin, anyways?
Shut the fuck up, go find him, and tell him you want your trigger back.
Maybe it was the way that Jin treated him as an equal, the way he would keep up a conversation with him, and didn't seem uneasy around him at all. Hyuse clenched his fist. Why did his life hate him so much?
Are you going to betray your own country, for someone who doesn't even care for you?
...But didn't Jin offer him rice crackers, talk like they were friends, and take time to hang out around him?
He is supposed to guard you, you dumbfuck. He is your enemy.
Then, why go to the risk of making the bet if the probabilities were against him?
He's a dumbass as well.
Hyuse stood abruptly up. This argument with himself did nothing but scramble up his mind even more. He sighed and walked back towards his room, planning to examine the planets' rotations a little more. Ever since Galpouin had refused to let him board the expedition ship, Jin had taken his trigger back- one more reason that Hyuse should loathe him, but didn't.
Why?
He made his decision.
Hyuse found Jin sprawled across the bed, eating rice crackers and reading a random comic book. Jin heard the door and looked up to see Hyuse beginning to close it again. Standing up, the brunette greeted the neighbor happily, holding out the bag of rice crackers.
"Want one?" he mumbled around a mouthful of the crackers. Hyuse reached hesitantly into the bag and drew one carefully out, as though trying not to touch any other rice crackers.
"You probably know what I want for my bet, with your foresight," Hyuse said, turning the cracker around in his hands.
"Hmm... actually, no. My Side Effect says that there are four possibilities."
"..." Hyuse frowned, "Then, let me enlighten you." springing forwards, his lips captured the agent's in a kiss. Both of them battled for dominance as they rolled across the floor, with Hyuse ending on top of Jin, their lips still pressed together, with Jin's fingers entangled in Hyuse's pale locks, keeping him against the brunette. Not that he minded.
When they finally broke apart, gasping for air, Jin smiled up at Hyuse.
"We have some important things to discuss now," Jin said, running his hands through Hyuse's hair and down the side of his face.
"Ngh... like what?"
"For one," Jin swiftly flipped them over, smirking as he stared into Hyuse's flushed face, "Who gets to top." he grabbed Hyuse's wrists as the teen attempted to flip them to their original position, pinning the Neighbor down.
"Don't think you'll top just because-" Hyuse was interrupted as Jin muted him effectively by closing his lips over the other teen's. Hyuse's eyes narrowed as he kissed back.
The battle for dominance began again.
So who do you think will top? xD
