You rested your forearms on the bar while Genma ordered 2 beers from the bartender. As soon as the bartender turned away Genma slapped his forehead.
"What's up?" You said, chuckling.
"Can you ask Kurenai if she wants a beer? I totally spaced" he said, shaking his head.
You turned to face your booth towards the back of the room and made eye contact with Kurenai. You motioned a drink to your mouth with your right hand. She nodded before putting a finger up and pointing to her wrist.
"She said yes but this is her last one, it's getting late and she has to head home" you said quickly while turning around.
Genma turned to you, looking at you incredulously. "You got all that with just hand gestures?"
You nodded. "Guess I'm just that good" you shrugged, smiling.
Genma chuckled and shook his head. "So all it takes is one night out for your head to become this inflated? I'm surprised it even fits in the bar at all!"
You rolled your eyes and scoffed.
The bartender set both beers down. Genma handed them both to you before turning back to the bartender and holding up a one. The bartender nodded and turned away. Genma turned with his back against the bar, hands in his pockets.
"(Y/N)?!"
You turned to your right. There sat Kotetsu & Izumo with surprised expressions on their faces.
"Hey guys!" you said, walking over to their place at the bar. Izumo pulled you in for a hug and started patting down the top of your head.
"Izumo what are you doing?" You said laughing.
"Just looking for horns or antlers" he said, focused.
"What's this all about?" You said, looking towards Kotetsu.
Kotetsu replied "(Y/N)? At a BAR? Now that's a strange sight."
"Gotta check for any unusual happenings, this is some kind of omen. I don't know if it's good or bad but I guess we'll find out" Izumo said, turning his head over his shoulder at Kotetsu.
"See that's what I'm saying!" Genma said. He walked up to you with his beer in hand, throwing his arm around your shoulder.
"If I didn't have these beers in my hand I'd hit all 3 of you" you said, smiling and shaking your head with your tongue tucked in the inside of your bottom lip.
The guys laughed. "Speaking of, I'm gonna go take this to Kurenai" you said. Genma nodded.
"No don't leave now ... are we ever going to see you here again?" Izumo shouted as you walked away.
"You would be so lucky!" You yelled over your shoulder.
You set the beers down at the table and took a seat. "Thank you" Kurenai said, lifting her beer up to cheers you.
You both took a sip before you said "don't thank me, thank Genma. You know he'd never let me pay."
"Very true" Kurenai replied.
As if right on cue, Genma returned pushing Guy's wheelchair up to the table.
"(Y/N)!" He said in his usually booming voice. "How are you? Giving life everything you've got?" He winked.
"Guy!" you said excitedly. "You know it!" You both high fived.
"No no" Genma said, pulling your hands apart. "That's what we're trying to actively avoid!"
