(A/N: in this chapter, omi's lifespan has been reduced to a century, having to deal with former toman's shit)
1.
"So, she's between Hyogo, Osaka, and Yokohama," Takemichi mumbled as he bent his head, holding his chin and placing his free hand on his hip. He then glimpsed back at Takeomi, who was seating over at the couch, manspreading with one arm swathe over the couch while the other one relaxing by his side. "How did you get your information?"
"Us?" Takeomi thought for while, remembering how they got the information. "Oh, we got it from a reliable source, like some people in that place. You?"
"The investigation unit of the police," Kazutora answered. He then looked at Mikey. "How about you?"
"From-"
"He's gonna say he did it on his own," Baji rolled his eyes. "Shut up."
"But I-"
"He's gonna say he got someone but he did most of the work," Kazutora snickered as he shook his head. "Shut up, Mikey."
"Uh-"
Then, tears welled up in his eyes, making Takemichi panic. The ravenette then went towards him, hugging his shoulders, "Don't cry, Mikey!"
"You don't listen to me!" he whined, holding Takemichi's arm.
"You made him cry," Takeomi had a droplet of sweat running down his forehead. "Just wait until Shin hears about it."
Chifuyu tried to calm Mikey down, whilst blowing punches on Kazutora's and Baji's sides. Takeomi sat there, already having his second cigarette of the morning.
Early in the fuckin' morning and they're makin' a 27-year-old cry, Takeomi thought, taking a puff from his cigarette. And it's goin' to my fault, as being the only mature adult, please emphasize that word, here.
"Mikey," Takemichi smiled, still panicking. "I'll listen to you. Where did you get your information?"
"Oh, me?" he sniffled, lifting his head to glance at the blue-eyed male, before snuggling by his chest. "I got in contact with Hina and she told me she was in Hyogo, taking care of her adopted twins."
...
"YOU DIDN'T TELL US YOU ALREADY HAD CONTACT?!" Kazutora slammed the desk Mikey was in, Baji and Chifuyu looked at him in disbelief.
Takeomi sighed, "You should've listened to him. But no, you made a full-grown adult cry."
"You didn't listen to me!" Mikey whined, squirming in his seat. "Now, pay me a dorayaki."
"HELL NO!" Baji said, striding over to Mikey to hit his head. He did, using much force piled up in his palm, he smashed the white-haired's head hard, making his groan. "AFTER YOU DIDN'T TELL US IMMEDIATELY!"
"I just got her number this morning," Mikey answered back, teeth gritting. "IF YOU WOULD'VE MADE ME SPEAK, THEN WE WOULDN'T HAVE THIS CONVERSATION!"
"I'm outta here," Takeomi stood up, leaving with no trace. He was going to tell Shinichiro about it.
He shut the door, hollers over the other side can be heard echoing across the devoid hallway, and Takeomi's ears are beginning to bleed. Be Shinichiro and Wakasa can hear it from the other room feet away. The tall male walked around the hall, going towards the room where the two was. Probably Shinichiro doesn't know that his younger brother got contact with the missing person in just a month.
I mean, a month is very long, at least, He thought. But if you're looking for a person who was missing for a few years, a month is quite fast.
His trail of thoughts was cut off when somebody slammed the door down, calling his name in a big shout, "TAKEOMI-SAN!"
Oh no, Mikey's here.
"TAKEOMI-SAN!" He heard footsteps coming towards him, until a hand pulled his wrist, causing him to turn around and walk at a fast pace. He couldn't keep up, Mikey's short legs were too fast. He stumbled at some steps, his wrist already forming a purple spot from the younger's tight grip.
"Ma-manjiro!"
"We need an adult," Mikey said.
"But you're 27!"
"We need an adult," He repeated, dragging him to where he escaped.
"You're not 15 anymore, Manjiro!" He groaned when he was thrown over to the couch, being met with pair of wandering eyes. He felt scared. Mikey stood in the middle of all, his arms crossed, looking down at the poor guy. "Wh-what is goin' on!?"
"We need an adult," Baji answered. The rest nodded (excluding Takemichi and Chifuyu, who were in the corner, recording.)
"You're 27!" Takeomi pointed out. "You're not 3!"
"We need someone to check who has a point," Baji said. They then made a semi-circle, Baji's hands on his waist, Kazutora's arms crossed by his chest, and Mikey's hands stifled in his pants pockets. Takeomi sighed.
Kazutora took a deep breath before exclaiming, "It's all Mikey's fault!"
"The fuck is going on-"
"It's your fault for making me cry and not listening to me," Mikey exclaimed. "Who's at fault now."
"Please shut up-"
"But it's your fault for not telling us," Baji proclaimed.
"It's your fault for not letting me speak!" Mikey spread out his hands, growling. "How is it my fault?"
"Everybody shut the fuck up," Takeomi stood up, going to the empty spot of the circle. "There's no point in fighting about this. Let's be happy we already got contact with Hina and that's that. If you don't stop, I'm telling Shin-"
"Tell me what?" Shinichiro smiled, his hand interlocked with Wakasa, whose head is leaning over the ravenette's shoulder. Chifuyu and Takemichi snickered, still continuing the recording. The four froze when they heard the voice by the door, They turned their heads around, seeing the devil leaning by the door frame. "What's going on?"
Takemichi and Chifuyu glanced at each other, their smile mischievous. Takemichi put out his phone and started recording the scene. The male beside him stopped the recording and went towards Shinichiro and Wakasa, showing the video. "This is what happened."
The four looked distressed when Wakasa glanced at them. He returned by watching the video and a smirk curled up into the side of his lips, nibbling the cotton candy stick. Chifuyu paused the video and put the phone away, then explained to the older ravenette about the whole context.
"So, we got confused because we all had different locations. Akashi-san told us that he got it from some persons in that division, we got ours from the investigation unit of the police. And when Mikey was about to say how he got his information, Keisuke and Kazutora here," Chifuyu gave them one quick glare before coming back to Shinichiro. "Cut him off because they thought about how Mikey got his information and accused him of a lot of things."
"Then...Manjiro cried? Because of frustration?" Shinichiro questioned. He got a nod from Chifuyu.
"When Takemichi listened to Mikey about how he got his information, Kei-kun and Kazu-chan got mad because the little guy didn't tell them earlier? Even if they cut him off?" Wakasa leaned in a little. He got another nod from Chifuyu.
Wakasa scoffed and Shinichiro chuckled. Takemichi watched as the scene unfold, while Chifuyu ran to his side to watch, scooting closer to him.
Shinichiro looked at the four, "And Takeomi?"
"He was dragged into this whole mess," Takemichi answered.
"Ah, I see," Shinichiro smiled. "You guys are stupid."
Shinichiro and Wakasa left the room. Takemichi and Chifuyu stopped the recording, and the four just stood there, watching them leave.
Chaos started again, and Mikey added fuel to the fire, "See?!"
"You were called stupid too, bitch," Baji snickered.
"This shouldn't have happened if you told us sooner," Kazutora frowned.
"Shut the fuck up," Takeomi rubbed his temples. "All of you."
