(Y/N)'s POV

It's now the next day since Mikey declared war. Thankfully Saturday finally rolled in so I have a lot of time to go about things here. Toman is gonna fight Moedius in a couple of days and I need to figure out a way to either stop them all together or keep Draken alive. Either option seems pretty complicated. Draken charges fist-first into any fight he sees and I'm useless in a one-on-one fight without a weapon. Having me in the battlefield will hinder the others like Taka-kun who will probably try to protect me.

But I've dealt with gangs before. All things considered, delinquents are rather predictable so this shouldn't be too much of a headache to do.

I went on my usual morning routine. take a bath, have breakfast, clean my room, walk around the house a bit to get some fresh air, feeding the koi in the pond, et cetera. After finished with all morning activities, I got straight to work.

Opening my ohone, i dialed Taka-kun's number. It took him a few seconds to pick up and when he did, i heard the booming sounds of a motorbike engine in the background. I recognise it instantly considering how often i ride it. It was Taka-kun's Impulse.

I must have called him while he was on the road, that's why it took him a while to answer. But then that begs the question...

(Y/N) "Taka? Where are you headed?"

Mitsuya "u-uh headed? Just... gonna buy some stuff for Mana and Luna."

Yeah. No chance im believing that.

(Y/N) "you suck at lying you know that?"

I heard Taka-kun sigh heavily knowing that he was caught red-handed before he even started his ruse.

Seeing as i already won, i smiled and changed my tone to be a lot lighter.

(Y/N) "come on... let's start this over. Where are you going?"

Mitsuya "Im gonna pick up Mikey."

(Y/N) "pick up Mikey? What for? Wait- is this about the war?"

Mitsuya "no. Well- not yet at least. Tomorrow the discussion is gonna start. Mikey will probably ask for you then."

(Y/N) "i see..."

A few seconds of silence passed as i processed the new intel.

(Y/N) "Alright. I won't keep you anymore. Go pick him up. Oh and if Draken is with him, mind asking him to come to my house? I wanna talk to him about something."

Mitsuya "sure. I'll tell him."

(Y/N) "thanks. Alright, have a safe ride then. And wear your helmet!"

Mitsuya "What? I can't hear you!" He said jokingly. I couldn't help but laugh and he chuckled lightly along with me.

Mitsuya "I'll be going now. See you later."

(Y/N) "yeah. See you..."

He ended the call and I was left to ponder in silence.

Well, no use in just sitting around here. Might as well get ready for Draken when he pops up. I know dad isn't here right now but im not sure how long he'll be gone for. If possible, i'd greatly prefer not having him here (just in general) but particularly during times like these when im inviting Toman members. Hopefully Draken shows up soon...

*Timeskip*

After about an hour and a half of playing my game console, I decided that it may be time to start being on the look-out for my guest. I waited at the enterance hall for Draken to show up.

I fiddled around with some stuff. Bored and starting to miss my game but that was when i heard footsteps from the outside but... is it dad or Draken?

I can't tell. The footsteps sounds heavy enough to be either of them but what worries me the most is the fact that i didn't hear the sound of a motorbike beforehand.

I took a step back and watched the door handles turn. Just as my heart began to race, it swung open slowly to reveal...

Draken "ah. (Y/N) there you are."

Damn it, Draken. Don't scare me like that...

(Y/N) "what do you mean 'there I am' where else would I be?"

Draken "I don't know. In the garden somewhere. Your place is humongous..."

Draken looked around for a few seconds as if to remind himself on his previous statement before getting back to me.

Draken "so what do you wanna talk about?"

(Y/N) "a couple of things. Come on, let's go play while we go over the details."

Draken happily accepted my invitation for a game. He chose a 1v1 fighting game (no surprises there) and as we played, i asked him about the details of tomorrow's war. Weirdly enough, Draken doesn't seem to know most of it. He simply said that the details will be discussed tomorrow and that I'll be there to hear about it straight from Mikey.

The game ended with me having one win over him. In truth, i can probably win a lot more than one round but i decided to hold back and keep the score close so Draken doesn't feel too embarrassed.

Draken "fucking hell. You're shit at actual fighting but good at it in game."

(Y/N) "Well you can't win 'em all!"

We took a moment to breathe in and relax ourselves from the intense game (and shoutin match that came with it.)

Draken stood up and looked down at me with a smile.

Draken "It's getting dark. I'm should go home."

(Y/N) "sure. Let me walk you out."

I got up as well and walked beside him until we reached the front door.

(Y/N) "You didn't bring a bike {motorbike}?"

Draken "nope."

(Y/N) "want Akira to drive you there?"

Draken "Nah, I'll be fine."

(Y/N) "if you say so. Just call me if anything comes up. Oh by the way! Before you go; you need to start treating your girlfriend better, man."

Draken "my girlfriend?"

Is he serious?

(Y/N) "EMMA!"

Draken "ooh her. What about her?"

....

My face verged between the border of total disappointment and amazement at his obliviousness.

(Y/N) "you know what, im not drunk enough to be talking about this. We'll discuss it later. Goodnight!"

I closed the door, locked it, and walked deeper into the house leaving Draken outside to his own devices.

Poor Emma... I swear she deserves better...

In any case, i guess i should prepare a plan for tomorrow's meeting. In a warehouse near fourth mid. The ones present will be Draken, Mikey, Pah-chin, and Taka-kun. I know how to convince three of them but Pah is... stubborn...

Why do I feel like tomorrow is not gonna go the way i plan...?
