Chapter 12: It's good to receive chocolates on Valentine's Day but for White Day, making some is too troublesome.

BETA READ BY AL19

A few weeks after the Valentine's Day incident, now was the time for the guys who receive the chocolate; giving the girls chocolate in return. The two men in the Yorozuya were discussing things on how they'd pay Satsuki back since it was White Day. Today was March 14 in Japan and it was White Day. It is a day to thank the people who gave them things last Valentine's Day.

"Shinpachi! Calm down!"

"You're the one who needs to calm down!"

Gintoki ruffled his hair and sighed, "First of all, I didn't wake up this early to joke around!"

Shinpachi arranged his glasses, "Let's think of something to give for Satsuki-san…"

Gintoki leaned on the couch and started to pick his nose, "Wait! Patsuan, we shouldn't act carelessly! At the same time, I don't want to give that flat board a thing in return! You know, she is an idiot and she's innocent! Maybe, she doesn't know that it is White day today. So if she didn't know, there's a huge percent that we won't give her anything!"

Shinpachi crossed his arms while lifting a brow, "That's rude! Gin-san, we should give her something! After all, she made those chocolates for us!"

"Let's see! Look! The flat board and Kagura is awake!" Gintoki pointed at the two women. Both had messy hair; they yawned in unison. Satsuki stretched her arms while gazing upon the calendar. "Look, today is March 14! It's white day…"

Gintoki sweat dropped as his jaw dropped, thinking that she wasn't not an idiot after all. Shinpachi face palmed at this because Gintoki's plan didn't work at all.

"Satsuki-chan, what is white day?" Kagura asked while rubbing her eyes.

"White Day is the reverse of Valentine's Day… The men who received chocolates last month will now give to the person who gave them some." Satsuki explained.

"Oh... I see!" Kagura nodded. They both went to the washroom to clean their teeth. As the both left, the two men didn't hesitate to plan.

"What should we do Patsuan?! She knew it!" Gintoki cried.

"Calm down, Gin-san! She isn't an idiot! Before that, what should we give to Satsuki-san?!" Shinpachi calmed Gintoki.

"Like hell I kno—"

Ding. Dong.

"Oh! Someone is there to pick it up, Gin-san, keep calm!" Shinpachi reminded him and headed to the door.

Opening it, there stood an old man. "Umm. Are you the Yorozuya?"

"Y-Yes."

"I have a job for you…"

"So, you said that we should run your Chocolate Store because you'll be meeting someone?" Gintoki lifted up a brow while sipping his Strawberry Milk.

"Yes, that's right…" The old man nodded.

"Then, we accept it. Come on, let's go guys…" The gang stood up following the old man.

"Then, I'll leave the rest to you…" The old man bid a farewell, leaving the four in the store very clueless.

Gintoki thought of an idea and instantly dragged Shinpachi out, "Oi. Patsuan, I have an idea. We can use this chance to make a chocolate for that woman. Let's just say that we are in charge of making the chocolates."

Shinpachi nodded, "Sure, Gin-san."

The two made their decision and decided to inform the girls, "Satsuki-san, we will be the one in charge in terms of cooking."

Satsuki wore the black apron that the old man gave them. Then, she cracked her fist and nodded, "Sure."

The two immediately headed to the kitchen, ready to make some chocolate. As for the remaining girls, they positioned at the counter. Satsuki flipped the sign open and waited for customers to come. As expected, customers didn't come eventually. Kagura was tired of waiting and ate a chocolate at the counter. Satsuki noticed this and gave her a head chop, "Don't eat the food in this store." She said plainly. Kagura immediately followed the woman and returned the chocolate unwrapped.

"Hijikata-san, where are we heading?" Sougo asked the grumpy Toushiro.

"You don't need to know! Also, why are you following me?!" TOudhiro yelled.

"You're going to the Yorozuya to see Nee-chan right?" Sougo inquired.

"If you knew it already then go away!" Toushiro scolded as he continue to stomp away from him.

"Hijikata-san, do you know that it's White Day today. You need to give her a chocolate… Ah! I need to give her some also…" Sougo pointed out.

That made Toushiro stop for a moment and turn back. The sandy haired man smirked at this and followed him.

The two men entered a certain chocolate shop. They both went their separate ways and looked for chocolate. Hijikata looked for a strawberry flavored one while Sougo didn't care at all; he just stared at them, without any interest at all. Finally, Toushiro picked one and headed straight for the counter.

"This please." Toushiro commanded as he lit his cigarette.

Satsuki, who was searching for something, turned around only to see Toushiro. His cigarette fell as he realized that the cashier is none other than the girl he would give the chocolate to.

"Oh. Nice seeing you, Toushiro. You'll buy this chocolate? Then—"

Toushiro slammed his hand on the poor chocolate while face palming himself, "Forget it. By the way, where's the yorozuya boss and the glasses guy?"

Satsuki pointed her index finger at a certain door. He immediately went inside; as for Sougo, he followed him.

"Jeez, what's wrong with them?" Satsuki ruffled his hair, "Kagura-chan, did you find that thing?"

"Hmmm. I cannot find it anywhere..." Kagura replied while exiting the door of another room.

Meanwhile, the four men inside the kitchen of the store were shocked at seeing each other.

"Wait! Why are you here?!" Gintoki asked while holding a knife.

"W-We are—" Toushiro was interrupted by Sougo.

"We are going to make chocolate. Hijikata-san was about to buy a chocolate here for Nee-chan but then he knew that Nee-chan was the sales clerk." Sougo deadpanned, "So, we will be using this kitchen with you…"

"Oh. I see, so you received a chocolate as well. Sure, join us." Shinpachi invited the duo.

"Shinpachi, you traitor!" Gintoki glared at him.

"It's okay since the more the merrier, right?" Shinpachi encouraged Gintoki. But the perm head didn't really approve this and distanced himself while clicking his tongue.

"That's right, Shinpachi-kun is right." Isao said while lying in the cabinet. Obviously, he was stalking Otae but ended up there. Sliding the door closed, he landed up on his two feet and proudly stated, "I am here because I will give Otae-san a white day chocolate! Of course, Satsuki-dono also!"

"You didn't even receive sister's chocolate…" Shinpachi said.

"Furthermore, why are you all gathered here?!" Gintoki scolded while pointing at them.

"That's right, Gintoki. Don't be mad, I'm also here to make a chocolate." Kotarou stated while wearing a pirate suit.

"Zura?!"

"It's not Zura, its Captain Katsura." Kotarou corrected.

"So, we will join you guys." Elizabeth lifted up the sign. Fortunately, the Shinsengumi didn't recognize Katsura and Elizabeth because they were idiots, total idiots. The group started on their chocolate making.

As for the girls, only few customers were coming to buy chocolates. Because of this, Kagura had an idea, she set up the amplifier and microphone. After that, she opened the wide screen outside of the store and set it up in a certain channel. She cleared her voice then spoke, "Oi, you damn thugs, listen to me! Sakakibara Satsuki is here selling chocolates! So, this store decided a promo; whoever buys a product of ours and either the two of us eat it will be receiving a kiss coming from her!"

"Eh?!" Satsuki whimpered while blushing.

All the men in the street, especially inside the kitchen, gasped upon hearing this.

"A kiss coming from Satsuki?" Toushiro's eyes widened upon hearing the sudden declaration.

"Kiss? Kiss from Otae-san?!" Isao smiled cheesily.

"Didn't you hear anything?!" Shinpachi retorted.

"K? Krispy Crème?" Gintoki thought.

"Are you deaf or what?!" Shinpachi scolded them.

All of the men dashed upon the store. All fighting for the chocolates to receive Satsuki's love. Satsuki couldn't describe the situation since it was a total riot in this store. Cracking a sweat, she was nervous about this, "K-Kagura-chan… Wha-What's this?!"

Kagura gave a thumbs up to her, "Since there are a few customers, I decided to use your popularity uh-huh!"

"Since when I am popular?! First of all, why am I going to do this?! This is embarrassing so stop it!" Satsuki hid her embarrassed face and decided to retreat. When Kagura notice this, she tied the poor girl in a chair. A teen age guy successfully went to the counter with his clothes tattered from the chaos. He reached his chocolate in the counter and paid for it. The boy gave it to Kagura and was about to eat it when a knife was tossed to his hand. The man lifted up his head and saw a furious Demon vice Commander.

"If you want to live more then get out of here…" Hijikata glared at the teen age guy. He was afraid of this, so he left the store. This process continued until Toushiro was worn out. Winding endlessly, finally the men were cleared out.

"As expected from Mayora, you didn't even let a single guy get close to Satsuki-chan, yes?" Kagura gulped another chocolate while gazing upon the raven haired man. Hijikata turned his back to her and started working again; it was very peaceful until someone declared.

"Ah. It's done. Guess, I'm going to give this to Nee-chan." Sougo deadpanned while wrapping the chocolate.

Hearing this made Toushiro stutter; he grabbed his sleeves, "No, you won't."

He gave him an angry expression. Sougo smirked sadistically, "Too bad Hijikata-san, you won't stop me," Sougo stated then kicked Hijikata in the hip. He started to exit the kitchen and there, he placed his chocolate in front of the counter. "This pl-"

He was interrupted when he saw a glaring Kagura over him. While giving her a smirk, Kagura dashed towards him and kicked him. He constantly blocked it and snatched the chocolate from the counter. They both exchange some blows as Satsuki struggled from the chair.

"Hey! Don't fight in the store!" Satsuki shouted.

"You hear Satsuki-chan, let's get our business outside, you sadist! I won't let her kiss you, uh-huh!" Kagura continued to kick Sougo but for him he always dodged it.

"Fine by me, stupid China!"

Toushiro sighed to this and thanked Kagura silently. After that, he came back to his work only to find out that one of them again was done making it.

"Yes! It's done!" Isao stated while bringing the chocolate up. He was teary-eyed that it was like his first home run in a baseball tournament.

Alarmed by this, Toushiro didn't hesitate to tap his shoulder, "W-Wait a moment K-Kondo-san! Why don't you wait until I finish the chocolate?"

"I'm sorry, Toushi! But Otae-san is waiting for me!" Isao apologized to him and sprinted out of the kitchen. Exiting the kitchen, he was about to give the chocolate to Satsuki when Otae arrived.

"Oh! Satsuki-san, here." Otae smiled.

"Before that, Shimura-san. Please untie me from here…" Satsuki cracked a smile to the brunette girl.

"Sure…" She untied her carefully. Finally, she was free from the ropes.

She rolled up her sleeves and cracked her fist, smiling, "Thank you Shimura-san! It's-"

"Otae-san, this is for you!" Isao jumped to Otae.

Of course, we knew it, the reaction of Otae. She changed her smile into an enraged one and kicked him in his face. Satsuki felt sorry about the lifeless Kondo on the ground.

"I'll be taking this, bye." Otae smiled again and left the store.

The atmosphere felt so awkward since it had been a long day for her. Sitting up freely, she let out a sigh and rested her hand under her chin. After the long wait, Kagura arrived with some dirt all over her clothes and face.

"What happened?" Satsuki arched a brow up.

Kagura laughed victoriously, "I won against the sadist because I took his chocolate!" She unwrapped the chocolate and ate it. She paused for a few seconds when her face started to get red.

"What's wrong?" Satsuki asked while eating a potato chip.

"I…"

"Huh?"

"I will kill that fucking sadist! I swear I will kill him! How dare he put some tabasco sauce in it, I'll kill him! Bring me some water!" Kagura charged into the bathroom with her tongue burning.

As for the remaining boys in the kitchen, they were busy making their chocolates. And again, there was a certain man who was done with his work. Apparently, it was Shinpachi. Wiping his sweat, he was about to head off when Hijikata stopped him. "Wait. Can you wait until I finished my chocolate?" Toushiro cracked a smile while pointing at the disgusting chocolate with a mayonnaise on top of it.

"No thanks." Shinpachi turned his back to him and started to walk. Until, he smashed Shinpachi's chocolate into pieces.

"Sorry my hand slipped…"

Shinpachi's jaw dropped to this and immediately, he shouted, "Hey! Wait a minute! Hijikata-san you just destroyed my gift for Satsuki-san!" Face palming himself, he exited the kitchen and went to the counter and ate a chip.

Again, the store was very gloomy until a bunch of guys from Satsuki's fan club came.

"We are here… to… taste Satsuki-sama's kiss!" They all stated in unison.

As Satsuki gave them disgusted look. Kagura came out of the bathroom, and cleared her voice, "For your information, Satsuki-chan will only get one kiss!"

Upon hearing this, the whole men cheered and fought for the chocolate. Toushiro noticed this and finished his chocolate soon after, glancing over Gintoki and Kotarou. His eyes widened when he saw a lot of chocolate boxes near Gintoki. The perm head wiped his sweat off and sighed, "All I have to do is to give it to her."

Hijikata smashed the chocolate into pieces saying 'Wait for me, damn it!'

Gintoki knew what Toushiro was up to; he smashed his chocolate with his feet. Just seeing this made Toushiro angry. He argued with Gintoki, "Just what the hell are you thinking?!"

Gintoki smirked sadistically, "Well, I've got some reserved ones… Ah! By the way, flat board said that she doesn't eat chocolates with Mayonnaise! Too bad for you!"

The two argued again as Kotarou and Elizabeth were sneaking out of the room. The idiots noticed this and immediately kicked Katsura out of the kitchen, sending him flying. Now it was Gintoki's chance, he tried to stand up but then Hijikata pulled his foot. Falling head first, he glared at the raven haired man.

"Shut up! Let go of my foot! I will definitely get the Krispy Crème!" Gintoki shouted as he continued to struggle.

"Krispy Crème? Just how deaf are you?! Who said that you'll get a Krispy Crème?!" He scolded back. Without noticing, Elizabeth was in the counter and Kagura gulped the chocolate. The two saw this when Kagura stated that Elizabeth is the winner…

Gintoki and Toushiro froze from this realization. Surprised by this, they didn't really expect that freaking mascot to beat them.

"Eli is the winner! Yay!" Kagura cheered.

The two idiotic samurai couldn't stand this. They both tapped the mascots head and gave him a german suplex.

"The Krispy Crème is mine!"

Hijikata and Gintoki continuously beat up the mascot. Punches, kicks and slaps were thrown at Elizabeth causing the whole crowd to join. The store was being wrecked by the chaos so Satsuki didn't have a chance to shut them up.

"All of you stop it!"

The store was a mess because of the ruckus made by Hijikata and Gintoki. The whole fan club apologized to the angry Satsuki and left. As for the men, Satsuki didn't let them leave because of this mess.

"Just what are you thinking, ruining this shop?!" Satsuki shouted.

The men were kneeling as Satsuki continuously scolded them.

"Why am I also here? It should only be Hijikata-san, Gin-san, Kondo-san, Okita-san, Elizabeth-san and Katsura-san…" Shinpachi murmured.

"This shop isn't ours at all! Get your cool already! Why did you cause a ruckus here?! Shinpachi, answer it." Satsuki pointed at Shinpachi.

Shinpachi stuttered; he doesn't know the answer at all. He tried recalling all the things and finally got an answer, "M-Maybe be-because of the thing K-Kagura-chan said… About the prize…"

Hearing this made Satsuki laugh hard, "Are you all idiots!? Of course I won't kiss anyone! Even if someone completely did the task, I wouldn't do it. Instead, I'll punch his face! But because of that racket we gained no money!"

All of the men stared at her dumbfounded, because they risked their lives for nothing. Suddenly, Gintoki stood up and gave Satsuki a chocolate. She stared at him with a confused look while holding the chocolate.

"Wait. What's this? Why are you giving me a chocolate?" Satsuki asked.

"It's obvious... Today is White Day right? Thank you for the chocolate…" Gintoki said.

Satsuki chuckled to this, "Heh, so all of you were making a chocolate in the kitchen…Seriously, it never crossed my mind that you'd give me chocolate return. I don't need any in return, last month was just my act of kindness."

"But, we felt sorry about that so… Happy White Day, Satsuki…" Toushiro said while giving the chocolate to her.

"Thank you for everything, Satsuki-san… Although, it was smashed into pieces by Hijikata-san… Happy White Day." Shinpachi also gave her the chocolate.

"That's right, Satsuki-dono. Here's my gift…" Kotarou and Elizabeth both gave their chocolates to her.

"Nee-chan. Sorry, but China ate my chocolate so here, I just bought one for you." Sougo eyed at Kagura as she gave out a tremendous aura to him.

"Even though Otae-san didn't accept my chocolate… Please accept mine." Isao gave it to her.

Satsuki smiled at them while thanking them. As she was thanking them, one by one they stepped backwards, Satsuki noticed it and let out a dark aura, "Hey. Where are you going? It doesn't mean that when you gave me chocolates I already forgive you! Come on let's go and clean this mess before that old geezer comes!"

They all sighed and responded in unison as they brought back the store into its old one.

That's for my short white day special! Hoho. I really like the Gintama boys suffer, I wonder that… *smirks* Anyway thank you for the following people:
