His Delinquent, Her Prince
Chapter 8: Cliché
Touko wanted to rip the head off of everything that moved and had a penis. She clenched her teeth as she swayed her hips at a man sitting in front of her as she stood on the stage. She thanked lawdy Arceus, however, when he threw twenty bucks at her, gracefully swooping down she grabbed the money and swerved the fuck away from him. She walked off the stage and into the back curtain, letting another girl take her place.
"This is so god damn cliché!" Touko hissed to herself, "A noble maiden has no choice but to sell her body for a loved one, only to fall in love with her best friend, then oh-so suddenly he finds out about her being a whore and shit goes down," Touko wailed in high pitched voice, sounding as if she was about to faint, "Fuck this shit, I'm quitting!"
"Not before I fire you," Elesa smiled from behind Touko.
Swiftly turning around Touko crossed her arms, "Sorry Elesa, but I'm not cut out for this type of thing. Plus," Touko added, looking away, "This is so damn cliché."
Elesa laughed, "Yes, I suppose your right, go ahead and change, I'll let you keep the money you made tonight."
Throwing Elesa a thankful smile Touko walked off, she gave a mournful sigh, in one night her life has gone into total turmoil. At least she made enough to pay rent...
Touko opened the front door and shook off her coat, "Mei?" She called, her voice echoing around her, eerie silence greeted her. Confused Touko kicked off her boots and walked further into the run down apartment, and right there on the pull out couch, wrapped into a blanket burrito was Mei, sound asleep. If Mei wasn't asleep Touko was pretty sure she wouldn't burst out laughing, instead, she gave a soft smile.
Quickly, Touko took a shower to get rid of any evidence that screamed strip club, after she came out with a plain white tank top and black and gray checkered pajama pants she grabbed a warm blanket for herself and rested herself next to a slumbering Mei, turning off the lamp next to her she closed her eyes.
BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG
Touko snapped her eyes open, sunlight drifting into her vision, she shielded her eyes with a hand, she turned to her left to see a still slumbering Mei. Touko thanked Arceus it was Saturday. If anyone deserved a week off school it was Mei, but an evil man claimed that students shall only get two days of rest. Which was completely unfair if you ask Touko.
BANG BANG BA-
"I'M COMING!" Touko bellowed in rage, rubbing sleep out of her eyes, she huffed herself up and threw her blanket onto Mei. Grumbling to herself she walked of to the door and flung it open, "What." Touko gritted, she frowned as she saw two men in black suites with those little microphones in their ears.
"Miss Touko?" One of the men asked.
"Yes, I am Touko." Touko answered cautiously, "Please, do come in." She made way for the two men to walk past her. Once they were in she closed the door, halting the cold air from coming inside her apartment.
She walked them over to the dining table where she kindly asked to sit, "Would any of you like some coffee?" Touko asked, a smile wry smile showing.
Both the men looked taken back, "Yes, please." One of the men answered. They both had silver-ish hair, they reminded Touko very much of Roxie.
Once three coffee cups were placed in front of the three did Touko get down to Business, "Now, please get straight to the point."
Both the men looked at each other and nodded their heads, they both turned to Touko, "Please move out as soon as possible."
N was typing on his laptop, his eyes glued to the screen as his hands danced on the keyboard, he was in the middle of finishing an important document when something suddenly burst into the room, N was about to yell at them when his eyes came across two very beat up members of his shadow triad, "What in Arceus name happened?!" N questioned in disbelief, they both had numerous scratch marks, one of them even had a bite mark on his hand.
"T-That girl!" One of the brothers gasped, his blue eyes wide, "She attacked like a wild Pokemon!" One of the two stood up straight and fixed his tie, "We will press charges immediately."
N shook his head, he smirked, "No, I will deal with her."
Both brothers looked surprised, "My lord?"
N shook his head, "Dismissed." The brothers bowed and walked out the door. N just couldn't get rid of his smirk, the more he learned about that commoner the more he wanted to test her, and by judging the wounds on the brothers he'll have to be very careful...
Touko gave a animalistic growl, Those damn bastards! She thought with rage, How dare they order us to move out! Touko snorted, she was glad that Mei wasn't awake though, Speaking of Mei, Touko thought, she walked aver to the pull out couch, she frowned when she saw Mei in a small ball.
"Mei?" Touko frowned, something wasn't right. She threw back the blankets and revealed a sleeping Mei, breathing heavily and red faced. Touko quickly placed her hand on Mei's forehead, but quickly withdrew it away when the hot skin seemed to burn Touko's.
Quickly, Touko paced into the kitchen and filled a bowl with cold water and a clean rag, her bare feet making small sounds as she paced around the kitchen looking for medicine. Carefully, but quickly she balanced the water inside the bowl, getting on her knees she placed the bowl on the floor and dabbed the rag with the cool water. Touko placed the rag on Mei's forehead, beads of water rolling down the sides of her head.
Sighing, Touko got up and turned on the old TV they had set up in the living room, she then walked over to her backpack and took out her cell phone, quickly dialing the number she knew by heart.
Hello?
Came the familiar voice of the blond.
Bianca?
Oh! Touko, what's up?
Bianca frowned, Touko wasn't the type of person to call people for shits and giggles, something was wrong.
...Mei's sick, and I don't have any medicine
Touko heard bed sheets shuffling and the springs of a bed squeaking.
I'll be there soon, don't move her too much, and keep a trash can nearby just in case.
Touko gave a breath of relief, Thank you soooo much Bianca! See you here, bye.
Bianca smiled softly at nothing, Anytime, bye
Bianca smiled softy, sure, it seemed like it was just a friend asking for help, but Touko never asked for help, her pride wouldn't let her. It just reminded Bianca that Touko really trusted her, that she was a super close friend to Touko. Bianca sharply shook her head, "I have to get medicine for Mei," Bianca reminded herself. She got up and walked over to her bathroom.
Touko looked sadly down at Mei. Sure, it was a simple fever, but it was crushing Touko to see her this way. Mei was all Touko had, and she'll be damned if a simple fever took her away. She brushed a single strand of hair away from Mei's face, she laughed when Mei scrunched her nose and muttered.
"I'm not a kid, Touko." She said with slight annoyance, her eyes still closed.
Touko let out a single laugh, "Of course not."
Touko turned her head to the door when she heard something knock, she frowned, Bianca sure got here fast...She strode quickly to the door. A bad feeling suddenly grew in the pit of her stomach. She swung the door open, and there, standing outside her door, in all of his damn glory, was N, smirking like a king.
