Bad Romance || Bonten x Fem Reader

23

Rumble sounds could be heard throughout this underground. Piles of guns lined up neatly along the walls, some people were crowding around fiddling with something, and some others were doing the same thing you're doing now.

You’re here, in Bonten armory and shooting practice place. Narrowing your eyes to the target, trying as best as you can to shoot it right in the center, excitement fulfill your whole nerve while your fingers ready in second to pull the trigger, until someone stole your concentration.

“Ran, did you really need to hug me?”

“I’m not hugging you babe, I’m guiding you. It’s already the fifth time you shot but your body can’t hold the impact. Bet you will thrown away if i’m not here to hold your arm.”

Ran let out a chuckle while Mochi just sit there watching you two, hands holding a mineral water, probably the old man already run out of breath since you and him learn many types of self-defense in a row without stop for 5 hours.

“Ready? Shoot after my cue, okay? Three-”

BANG

‘’What the fuck (Y/N) I said wait until my count-“

Plastering a smug expression on your face, Ran whistling in amusement while his eyes catch a sight of your bullet land perfectly in the center of the target.

“Want me to praise you?” His gaze now back on you.

“Hmph no need to. I’m already stunning.”

Ran really can't guess any shit about you. As if you never failed to amaze him, every personality  you had impress him since the first day you've met him, as now your eyes sparkling in delight coherent with that smuggy attitude, he can not help but let out a chuckle.

“Then, lemme give a little present as an appreciation.”

--

The sound of Ran’s luxury car roar echoed along the streets of Tokyo. Enjoying the scenery on a winter day, you see a group of people walking around while drowning on their own business. Passing by many shops which decorated with Christmas stuff, make you realize that tommorow are Christmas day.

When people usually exchange gift or just wasting their times with people they loved in the Christmas Eve, yet here you now, standing in front of an ordinary apartment in the middle of unfamilliar place with someone who just parked his car beside this apartment.

You stare at Ran with confusion looks, which just getting ignored by him as he bring your hand to interlock with his, now he’s guiding you to enter the apartment. You just tagging along with him, trying to understand what was his intentention to bring you here until he snapped you back from your thought, recognize that you're already on the rooftop.

“Where are we?”

Release his grip from your hands, now both hands are in his pockets. Let the winter wind blowed his gelled hair while staring blankly at the skyscrapers across this apartment, he finally spoke up.

“You said that you want to celebrate the new year eve in Roppongi right?”

The silences can be heard because you can’t answer him properly. It’s not that because you shock that he take it serious what did you babble on last meeting, it’s because somehing more than that, something is odd but you can't tell it what, why, or how. Ran, sometimes- no, indeed is a flirty person both in serious and joking conditions, but this time he wasn’t Ran, he was someone else.

“I’m afraid that I can’t fulfill that wishes of yours, so I bring you here, to Roppongi, to feel the same vibes that you want, maybe. This is where I and Rindou used to lived before we joined Bonten. We usually saw the firework festival on every Christmas Eve from here, but I don’t know whether they held it on this year, so let just wait and see.”

Your brain gained to much information and it’s fucking need a long time to process it all, as now Ran turning around a walk towards you who stand in statued. Both hands which previously on his pocket now cupped your cheeks, giving a sense of warmth through your face.

“Hey, is it that disappointing? Why you just keep silent? What the difference tho, Christmast eve or new year eve, it’s fucking the same eve. Don’t be sad please (Y/N)-chan?” Ran pastered a slightly worry expression, everything he did now confused you.

What is this behavior of him?

“No- I’m not sad actually I’m quiet happy since the time you brought me here, I mean, it’s just random babble but you do a lot of efforts to make it true, thank you Ran. But actually, isn’t the firework show start at midnight? We need to commit that mission at 10 you know? How can we supposed to see the show you idiot.”

His worried face now dissapear the moment he heard your laugh, that laugh which stole his heart ever since he saw that. “Oh right, that damn mission. Shit. Let’s just back here after we finished that, shall we?”

As you nodded in agreement, he nudge your body into his chest, tightly hug you as if there is no tommorow for both of you so he doesn’t want to let you go. Patting your back with his palms, you enjoy the moment both of you share the same warmth in this freeze season, until he whispered,

“I love you, (Y/N).”

Ran indeed is an unexpected person. You know that. You know more than that. I mean, who wouldn’t surprised that a stranger you met for the first time asking you to roaming around Tokyo and having fun with him, even buying some matching stuff without asking anything in return, was an executive in Bonten- worst criminal organization in Japan? Who would expect that he didn’t think twice and willingly risk his own life to save your from Mikey anger? And everything he did never failed to astonished you the same way as you never failed to amaze him.

As if it’s not enough suprise from him, heart pounding so hard as if it almost drop from your chest the moment he continued to spoke,

“I mean what I say. I really do love you (Y/N), although I know you were never be mine.”
