Childhood 'Friends'? - Baji x F!Reader

' 𝟺: Back. '

Once you've found everybody, which took an insane amount of time, Mikey suggested you go to the park and try to get to know everybody a little better.

Completely forgetting about the fact that you all were supposed to go to school today.

Once you get there, you all picked a nice area with a picnic table to sit at. Baji and Chifuyu decide to sit near you, somewhat surrounding you.

"Baji, quick question." Mitsuya said, looking towards Baji. You watched as he raised his eyebrow. "Well, moreover directed toward all three of you, actually." He corrected himself. "Why do you all surround each other?"

You shrugged innocently. "It's always been that way for Kei and I."
Baji nodded, "Mom always told me to stay near her, and so I did. Soon it grew to be a habit."

You looked at Chifuyu and ruffled his hair, "Kei introduced me to this angel and we've been a trio for as long as I could remember."

"You seem close. A little too close." Hakkai said, observing the three of you, the suggestive tone peaking your interest. Your eye twitches, catching Chifuyu's attention.

"You see, Hakkai," Chifuyu started, "She has a smart mouth. Like, very smart mouth. As harmless as she may be physically, she'll fuck you up mentally and emotionally."

You watched as Hakkai looked at you, ignoring the way the corners of your mouth twitched into a wicked smile. "Nah."

"You look like Chris Brown when he had that half 'n half blue and pink hair." You said quickly. Everyone began laughing as Hakkai stared at you, eyes blown a bit wide.

"This is why you don't try to tease her.." Baji sighed.
"She's the boss of you guys' group, isn't she?" Mitsuya chuckled, laying his hand on your head.

"Pretty much." Baji smiled. "And a simple warning, most likely than not she'll give all of you a nickname."

"I figured that.. she asked to call me 'Ryu' and Mitsuya 'Suya'." Draken rolled his eyes.
Chifuyu smiled, "She usually calls Baji 'Kei' and me 'Fuyu'."

You looked at Mikey, who was beaming at you. "..what's it staring at?" Your wondered.

"Now Y/N—" Baji said through a choked laugh. "Don't call Mikey an 'it'."

"You called 'Fuyu and 'it'." You said, bringing up the memory.
"Can we not bring that up.." Chifuyu sighed.

"Y/N-San, can I have a nickname too?" Mikey asked, a grin visible on his face. Your eyes begin to glow with an idea - quite dumbly matching Mikey's idiot expression. "'Jiro." You said in a triumphant tone. His eyes were filled with yellow stars of happiness.

"They're going to be close." Draken sighed.

A while down the line, Angry and Smiley claimed you as their sister. Older or younger, they didn't care. To them, you were their sister.

Well, to all of them you were like a younger sister to them. Angry and Smiley just took it literally.

And that was your life. You were basically a family, treating each other like brothers and sister. And even though you weren't in Toman due to the rule, they'd let you follow them around. Like a manager.

It was only until a certain someone you hadn't seen in a while came along that everything began going downhill.

Chiyo.

He came as a new student, having moved schools due to moving. You, Baji and Chifuyu were on high alert once you found out, while the others were confused.

"Why've you three been so on edge as of late?" Draken questioned.
"There's a new student. An old bully of mine.." you explained briefly.
They all looked at each other, "Well, I suppose there's a reason for you all to come now." Draken suggested.

"Why?" Smiley asked, not understanding. "I mean.. She and Baji only have two classes together while she and Chifuyu have none but the free period." He explained. "Seeing as she isn't somebody who knows a lot about fighting, there's a high chance she's going to be alone for quite a while."

"So you're suggesting we all go to see if we have anymore classes with her?" Hakkai asks, somewhat catching on.
Draken nods, despite his down almost being belittling, "See, you understand."

They all ended up agreeing to it. The next morning, they all got ready the same way as you, Baji and Chifuyu. Mikey made a group chat so it'd be easier to text good morning, too.

And together, you'd all walk to school. Joking pushing each other around and everybody having a good time. There wasn't a moment where you didn't have a good time with these boys.

You found that Smiley and Hakkai has 4-5th period with you up until lunch, Draken has enhancements and 6th period with you as well. Mikey has enhancements with you, too. Baji and Angry having the first two classes in the morning and Chifuyu and Mitsuya having third periods break.

So, simply put, two of them will always be with you throughout the day unless they skip a day or come late.

It wasn't really thought through when Hakkai hadn't came to school since his sister was sick and got it from her, and Smiley left you for one minute to go to the restroom.

One minute seemed like an hour in that moment.

Chiyo spotted you, walking towards you with his little goons. "Leave me alone, Chiyo." You sighed, turning away from them to walk to your locker. It wasn't far from where Nahoya was, anyway.

"Nah, come on back." He grabbed your wrist, yanking you back. You kicked him away, getting free for a moment before one of his friends yanked your hair.

You yelped at the pain, calling out Smiley's name in hopes of him hearing you. Just as promised, once you called him he happened to be turning the corner. What he didn't expect, though, was to see you being held by three other males. That most definitely weren't familiar.

"Oi." Was all he said, his voice menacingly deep. Pulling one of their shirts, he pushed one away, shoving him into a wall. "Let 'er go, you sick bastard." He sighed, seemingly tired of bullshit already.

"Never in my life have I seen a guy pick at a girl for his own amusement." He sighed, looking at them, noticing the way all three of them can't help but eye you from behind him. "I bet your moms are disappointed?" He asked in a soft yet threatening voice.

"Awe, she got protectors. Better yet, he's rumored to be in a gang! A bunch of other lil' boys too!" A random shouted. "Ya little boyfriend keeping y'safe?" He asked in a mocking voice.

Smiley had never thought he'd have to have so much self-restraint in a public environment in a while. Especially not when he's always been hands on when it comes to fixing issues.
"It's not a rumor if it's true. Now piss off." Smiley finally says, taking your wrist in his hand and mustering all his will-power to turn the other direction.

As he walked though, you could feel his grip getting tighter and tighter by the second. Must've taken a lot for him not to start something.. you thought, quietly whining at the pain of your wrist.

"What're you whining at?" He asked, not aware of the aggressive tone curbing his voice. You could feel the tense aura he radiated.

"My wrist," you said, timidly, "You're gripping it, kinda harshly.."

He looked at your wrist as he let go, staring at the slight mark he left. "Shit, sorry," he blurted out. "You okay?"

You nodded, a soft smile on your face. "It's fine, 'Hoya."

It was visible he relaxed after hearing that. "C'mon, gotta get to class."
