A Spy Among Them (ShinsoxBakugoxDabixAizawaxReader and more..)

Ch. 105 I Want to Wreck You (short 🍋)

Tamaki and I had a perfectly sweet date in the park. We'd sat under a tree and watched families ride bikes around the pond.  We'd sat on the swings and talked about our pasts. Well, mostly his past since there were things in mine that I would rather leave unsaid.

And then when it was time for us to go, I practically had to throw myself at him to get him to kiss me.

Although, when he kissed me back...

Holy hell. It was like fireworks that I never wanted to end.

But they did end, and that was as far as anything went.

Why was he so difficult?

And why did that make me want him that much more?

Around 9 I quietly snuck out the back door of the dorms, not wanting to risk a conversation with anyone about where I was going or what I was doing. Shinso had told me that he had the night off and the last thing I wanted to do was explain to him that I was meeting up with Shigaraki at a bar.

He was at the back, at that same table we'd sat at before, a black coat with a hood pulled over his head, but I still knew exactly who it was.

Two drinks and two shot glasses were already on the table when I got there.

"Tomura Shigaraki," I said, sliding into the booth next to him. "Are you trying to get me drunk?"

"Only if it means you'll let me put it in your butt later."

"Okay, I'm out," I said, getting up to walk away.

"I'm joking. Sort of. Sit down," he said, patting the spot next to him in the booth.

I lingered by the booth for just a second before sitting back down.

"Tell me about this place we're going to," I said.

"There's nothing to say. It's just a place where we can blow off some steam and get away from the pressures of life."

I downed the shot and chased it with the drink. Sounded good to me, but I also knew better than to believe everything he told me. "Have you thought more about my proposal of making a trade for Shinso?"

"Have I thought about him? No. Have I thought about you? Yes. Lots of thoughts, about lots of things, most of them involving you and maybe a rope or two, maybe some hot wax..."

I groaned, only half in frustration. "Come on. I need help here."

Shigaraki raised an eyebrow. "I still don't understand why I should care who this boy works for."

"If you don't care, make me happy and ask Overhaul if Shinso can work for you."

"So I can murder him instead of Overhaul? Dabi's one thing, but if I have to watch another guy drool over you..."

I had thought that Shigaraki was the lesser of the two evils, but maybe I was wrong. I needed to think. There had to be another way. Absentmindedly, I played with my silver charm.

"Did this boyfriend give you that pretty necklace?"

"Maybe."

Shigaraki put his hand on my thigh, rubbing slightly inwardly. "It would look nice wrapped around my hand when I choke you later."

So this was getting nowhere.

I needed a new tactic. Something to get at his ego. I had an idea.

"Ah, I get it now," I said, nodding my head as if I had just learned some deep wisdom. "I would have understood if you had just told me the truth to begin with."
