Now and Then: A Second Chance (Various! Tokyo Revengers Characters X OC)

Rise

Misaki's P.O.V

As Misaki stood there in front of the familiar tan door of her past, hand ready to knock, she suddenly felt herself shaking. Whether it was in shock, fear or excitement - she didn't know. 

"Hah...since when I am scared of such a little thing...this might not even be real." Misaki uttered under her breath, sighing. She dropped her arm to her side, suddenly unsure of why she would even come here, of all places. She combed her fingers over her hair and face, momentarily wondering what to do next.

"What a drag..." she stated, before deciding against knocking on the door. As she began to turn around, the door suddenly opened, causing Misaki's eyes to widen in surprise.

"Ah, hey, Misaki! Mikey's not home right now if you were looking for him." spoke a familiar girl with sandy blonde hair and eyes like honey. 

Misaki stood there like a deer in the headlights before awkwardly coughing to clear the air.

"Uh, hey Emma. Yeah, I figured as much. He's probably out with Draken, right?" Misaki asked. Within seconds, Misaki saw Emma's slightly tanned skin turn red with blush.

Ah, that's right. She had a huge crush on him, didn't she? Misaki mused, remembering Emma tell her about her love for the vice-commander. 

"Yeah, I was actually going to meet up with them with you and I was just on my way out to pick you up. Mikey said something about the captains meeting up. I thought he told you?" Emma asked, eyes tinged with curiosity.

Misaki circled through her thoughts for a moment before stating, "Yeah, I probably just forgot. It has been a really strange day for me today..." 

Emma nodded at this, and shut the door behind her, locking it. 

"Well, let's go then. I spent too long on my makeup to sit in the house alone." Emma noted, while walking away from their house, while Misaki followed.

"Say, Emma, can I ask you a question?" She then asked, as she stared at the setting sun.

"Of course." Emma replied, looking at her from the corner of her eyes. 

"I had an altercation earlier and someone said something I thought was interesting. I hadn't heard it before so I was just wondering..." She started.

Emma shook her head, awaiting her question. Then, with a very deadpanned look on her face, Misaki said, "Why do people know me as 'Mikey's girl'?" 

Emma's eyes widened very slightly at her question before reverting back to normal. She laughed softly and scratched at her cheek before she remarked. 

"Well, I mean, that's probably a question for him, but aren't you?" Emma retorted back.

Missaki furrowed her brow and shot her a questioning look.

"I mean, we've all known each other for a long time, right?" Emma asked, looking forward.

"Well yeah..." 

"And you and Mikey are really close, right? I mean, even closer than him and Draken, and that's saying a lot." 

"I mean I guess..." Misaki mumbled, as she began to file through her memories of the past.

"So you have a special relationship, wouldn't you say? He has never shown interest in any other girls from what I've seen..." Emma noted, muttering the last part to herself. 

"But...correct me if I'm wrong...we aren't like a thing, right? I don't remember being a thing." Misaki noted, squinting her eyes in puzzlement. 

"Well, probably not in title, but c'mon Misaki, he has eyes for no one but you. You on the other hand..."
