3RD PERSON'S POV

The room was only lit by the small lamp on top of his desk when Shinichiro opened his eyes, realizing he dozed off while trying to calm the girl earlier. It seemed peaceful just to watch her sleeping figure resting against him as he admired her lovingly. But that feeling didn't last long when a sudden sound was heard from the other room which made all of his senses come into an alert mode especially when he heard the chains drop to the ground. It immediately gave him the thought of an intruder.

Seeing as the girl is peacefully sleeping, he placed her down on the couch, covering her body with the blanket. He's not sure whether it really was an intruder or maybe just some rat that managed to infiltrate the shop but still, he grabbed the tool from one of the shelves which turned out to be a wrench and he faced the entrance of the room.

Usually, he wouldn't feel any fear in dealing with people like intruders but this time, knowing he has someone with him within the place makes him uneasy, thinking she might be in danger as well. He turned to her, taking in her condition and seeing as she wasn't bothered by the sound earlier, he sighed before stepping out, gripping the wrench tightly in his right hand.

'Maybe, I could just talk them through as to not create chaos.'

'I wouldn't want her to be dragged into this when she only stayed to accompany me.'

Was what was running in his mind as he think of a way to handle the situation without having to wake the female up. However, as soon as he closed the door, he immediately caught sight of a silhouette of a person grabbing hold of the very bike he's been trying to pay attention to earlier. He can't help but feel pissed by this.

'Of all bikes, this guy really chose the one Mikey wants.'

He thought as he remember what Y/N said to him about the bike not disappearing.

"Hey!" He called out in an obviously pissed manner. The person immediately froze, realizing that a new person just came into the scene. "What do we got here? A thief?" The raven haired man taunted as he walked towards the person, intimidating him even more. "Whose shop do you think you broke into?"

To think that a person would have the courage to try and steal something from a shop owned by a delinquent of high status was something foolish. But it seemed this person doesn't know of him.

"Get out." He commanded, glaring into the darkness. "You think you can play around with me?" He really didn't want to cause a ruckus because of the girl. But to think that he almost lost the thing valuable to his little brother doesn't sit right with him. "You're not getting away, punk." He gripped the wrench tight in his hand as he step out into the light, earning a gasp from the hooded person.

"Hm?" He stopped on his tracks when he got a closer look at the person, realizing how familiar the person looked. "Hey, haven't I seen you somewhere before?" He's sure that he's seen him with Mikey a fee times already. And that one who even helped him when he got sick. "Aren't you Keisuke?" He can't be mistaken. By the way the boy reacted, it was indeed Baji Keisuke.

"Sh-Shinichiro-kun? Why... Why are you here?" The boy is noticeably shaken as he stuttered on his own words.

"Huh? This is my shop, you know." Shinichiro casually answered, suddenly confused as to why Baji came all the way here. But he looked so scared at the sight of him.

"Your shop?" Baji instantly knew that he already messed up and probably won't be able to find a way to get out of the situation. It's as if he was suddenly slapped to wake up in reality of his wrong doings.
