The Unwanted Encounter (Ash Lynx x Reader)

32) Macaroni and cheese!

"The lower East Side is all broken up." Reported Alex as we sat in the living area.

"They're all peeing in their pants by now." Remarked Kong after I told him about what had happened in the subway.

"Turn the tv off, it's irritating me." Said Ash, obviously irritated. I bent over and reached for the remote control on the coffee table, eventually tuning the tv off which Ash thanked me for in non verbal communication.

"These are the next targets." Said Ash, pointing toward the tablet which laid on the coffee table. "Make them leave Manhattan. If they won't, kill them." Said Ash, but stopped mid sentence when Eiji walked in.

"What?" He asked, side eyeing the Japanese.

"Sorry, it can wait." Said Eiji awkwardly before he left the living area. I looked over at Ash and non verbally told him I'm leaving which he nodded to.

I left the living area and went to the room where Eiji was at, he was taking pictures trough the blinders so he could collect evidence from within the building the Corsican Mafia owned.

"Eiji." I said, entering the room. Eiji took a picture trough his camera and glanced behind me.

"Hey." He said, giving me his usual smile.

"Are you okay?" I asked, standing behind him and looking at how he took pictures with his camera in a professional manner.

"Yes." Eiji answered, standing up and taking the camera off of the camera stand.

"Woah, you're really good." I said, observing the pictures he took. "Especially taking a picture in an uncomfortable angle like that." I said, amazed by his talent.

"It's nothing. After years of practice, you get better." Eiji said, chuckling as he imported the pictures on his laptop.

"Can you learn me how?" I asked, still amazed as I went trough his photo album. Pictures of New York, airports and Japanse monuments were found there, aswel as pictures of him with Ibe, and a few even with me and Ash.

"Sure, so basically-"

"You got the pictures?" Asked Ash as he opened the door, interrupting Eiji as he was about to explain me how a camera works.

"Yeah." Said Eiji, showing the blonde his laptop screen as I toyed around Eiji's camera, making sure I wouldn't mess anything up or break it.

"They're good. I'm lucky to have a photographer's assistant with me." Said Ash in a joking manner.

"Tch, don't make fun of me." Said Eiji making a pouting face. "How did you rent a room like this? Right by Golzine's office too." Asked Eiji as he stared at his laptop screen.

"I got lucky." Answered Ash as he walked over to the bookshelf.

"You don't tell me anything when it comes to something important. Am I so untrustworthy?" Eiji asked, which slightly startled me as my attention was now on the 2 boys.

"It's not like that." Said Ash, looking at a book he held in his hand.

"I.. Sorry. I know you don't tell me to keep me safe. I just feel so helpless that I can't do anything for you." Said Eiji, regretting what he said earlier.

"You do enough for me. You take pictures of people who visit his office."

"Well yeah, but.."

"Eiji, Ash.." I said as I made the two turn around. "Fill in the blank." I said. They both hummed and stared at me. "Macaroni and.." (a/n: if you know from which anime this is, ily.)
