Finding My Happiness (Bungou Stray Dogs Chuuya X OC) (BOOK 1)

Not as they planned

Misaki?

~

Blinking her eyes awake, Misaki slowly sat up. She rubbed her eyes and let out a small yawn. She dropped back onto the bed, her head laying on her pillows as she looked up at the white ceiling.

She heard her phone buzz on the bedside table. Reaching over and grabbing it, she saw a text from Chuuya.

I'll most likely be back today.

With a small smile, she replied back. She looked at the box laying at the edge of her bed. She didn't realize that she had forgotten to put it away somewhere safe. Misaki grabbed ahold of it and put it on the bedside table. Looking at time, Misaki put her phone back down and decided to take a longer nap, seeing as she had woken up too early and wanted a bit more of sleep.

"Where's Chuuya?"

"Is he going to come?"

"I want to play video games with him?"

The second she entered the room Misaki was bombed with questions from the kids. It seemed like the grew very attached to the boy.

"Sorry, he's busy. Maybe I'll bring him tomorrow if he comes. How does that sound?" Misaki asked.

"Yeah!" The kids cheered.

The kids continued to play with each other for the next hour. Some would sit and read and then switch over to playing games. Misaki of course joined in too.

A while later, Odasaku showed up. The kids ran towards him the second he opened the door. They greeted him and hugged him like crazy before going back to what they were doing before. Odasaku smiled at them before taking a seat on the floor next to Misaki. "You seem to be enjoying your time with them." He stated.

"I always do." Misaki said.

"That's good to hear. They also seem to like being around Chuuya."

Misaki smile at herself. "Yeah. The second I walked through the doors, they wouldn't stop asking for him."

"Seems they he's going to replace us." Odasaku said.

"I doubt that."

The two sat in a comfortable silence a little longer, watching over he kids as they played with each other.

"You're not just here to see them. You're here for something else too?" Misaki asked.

"You're not going to like it very much." Odasaku said.

Misaki closed her eyes and sighed in disappointment. "Might as well tell me then." She frowned.

"The boss wishes to see you. Not sure what he wants. But it seems like he's wants something done." Odasaku said.

"Why does he request me?" Misaki asked with a small frown. "I hate doing errands for him." She stood up and started dusting herself off. Then walked towards the door.

"Aw! You're leaving already?"

"Don't leave now."

Her lips turned into a small smile as she looked down at them. "Don't worry. I'll be back tomorrow. You kids just stay with Odasaku." She said.

They brought their attention back to what they were doing before. After closing the door behind them, the smile turned back into a frown, and her eyes glaring at the floor. All she wanted was to stay with them. But it seemed like Mori just wanted to ruin her day.

Chuuya sat in the bench looking at the water. The sun was slowly setting. They sky pink but very beautiful. He hoped that maybe Misaki was watching with him.
