Utaite One-shots

Delinquent Urata AU

Are you dreaming? Is this real?

You enter the playhouse in disbelief. What in the world is he doing here?

Why is THE delinquent Uratanuki at your baby cousin's birthday party, and why was he playing with her?

"(name)-neechan!" You shook your head as you knelt down to the toddler, catching her in your arms.

"Happy birthday, sweet pea!" You gave Cabbage a sweet smile as you ruffle her hair. You look back at Urata, who would usually have his hair slicked back, but now his light brown hair framed his face with his forehead still sticking out. He held a face that was just as surprised as you are.

"Uh, who is he?" You ask, still not taking your eyes off your classmate.

"He's Urata-nii!" Cabbage answers brightly, "He's really nice and cool!"

"I- I see..." You never thought you would hear 'Urata,' 'nice,' and 'cool' in the same sentence, especially from a child. "What were you two playing?"

"We were having a tea party!" She runs back to her seat and raises a small porcelain teapot, "Urata-nii got it for me as a present!"

Only then did you notice the tea set sitting on her yellow table. "I couldn't play with my friends though since mommy said they couldn't come, but Urata-nii said he wants to play with me!"

Your cousin runs up to you again, dragging you closer by the hand. Hesitating, you sit a few inches further away from the brunet who was just as tense as you were. She gives both of you a warm smile as she pours you a cup of surprisingly warm tea. You nod, smiling back and saying a small thank you. You silently sip your teacup as the once warm atmosphere turned awkward. Your cousin, who seemed to be oblivious of the tension grabbed the empty plate on the table, "I'll get more biscuits! I'll be right back, you two finish your tea!"

"Okay, we'll be right here!" You smile while drinking your tea. After she shuts the door, you set your cup down before looking at the brunet. "What are you doing here?"

He clicks his tongue, "Just- don't tell anyone at school about this, got it?"

"Fine, just answer my question first." You cross your arms, wanting to know why the hell he was with your precious cousin.

"I got dragged into this because of my mom, happy?" He rolls his eyes and pulls his knees under his chin. An embarrassed pink blush coats his cheeks. The little girl always looked familiar to him. The name was at the tip of his tongue, but out of all the people it could be, of course it had to be you. Oh so beautiful you.

You sigh in dissatisfaction of his answer, an irritated look on your face. This was the other boy you had to spend your next few hours with? Why did it have to be the infamous Urata from campus?

By the time Cabbage came back with more fresh baked biscuits, you and Urata had already finished the tea, "I'm back!"

"Thank you for the food~" You smile, taking a piece from the plate. The black-haired girl tilts her head at the silent boy, "Why aren't you excited Urata-nii? Didn't you talk about-"

Urata laughs loudly and covers the child's mouth, "AH, HA, HA, I WASN'T TALKING ABOUT ANYTHING."

Cabbage gently takes his hand off her face, "But you said-"

He shushes her, putting his palm over her nose once again, "No, I was NOT saying anything a while ago, Cabbage-chan."

He desperately tries winking at her, trying to make her take the hint. You clear your throat to stop the awkward scene happening before you, "Cabbage-chan, why don't we get some tea for the biscuits?"
