no one likes you, tomioka-san. but i love you. || giyuushino || complete

06 || "you WHAT?"

shinobu choked on the tea.

"you WHAT?!"

"shinobu-chan!" mitsuri said surprisedly, flushing a bright red. "i'm sorry! it just seemed like that—"

"mitsuri. you're telling me you told ALL of the hashiras that tomioka-san and i did WHAT?!"

"goumen. goumen. goumennasai!" mitsuri bursted out, her head bobbing up and down.

"and master called all of us for a meeting today. how am i supposed to-"
"shinobu-chan! calm down. i only told seven hashiras!"

hmph.

after a few more tense minutes, the silence was finally broken by shinobu.

"okay. i'm calm now." shinobu huffed. scrunching up the side of her kimono, she turned to smile at the slightly frightened mitsuri.

"i heard that the meeting is at 12." shinobu said quietly, sighing quietly.

"yes. you heard correct-- OH NO!" mitsuri sprung up abruptly, looking at shinobu with every ounce of fear in her eyes.

"w-what?! are you okay?!" shinobu asked, startled.

"the meeting." mitsuri boomed, her eyes wide, and her body shaking "the meeting is in 5 minutes"

"w-what?!"

"yes-yes do whatever!" aoi said hurriedly to kanao, who hunkered over shinobu's head with the butterfly clip.

mitsuri burst out of the closet, holding shinobu's other butterfly kimono with the same print.

"why can't I just wear this?" shinobu asked, biting her lip.

"oh come on—it's the same! just wear it!"

aoi helped wrap the kimono around shinobu while kanao finished up her hair. she felt little tugs and pulls on her head, then the familiar feeling of the tiny butterfly clip weighed on her head.

"k-kanao!" mitsuri exclaimed excitedly.

"summinasen, but we really must be going! ja ne!" shinobu stated nervously, pulling mitsuri's arm and running out the door.

mitsuri looked at shinobu with a sidewards glance, not looking at her face, but at her hair with a smile in awe.

"mitsuri-san?" shinobu asked confusedly, looking upwards.

"o-oh it's nothing!" mitsuri said, grinning. "kanao-chain's just got a talent for hairstyles."

"those two are usually never late."iguro hissed, looking around the zen garden.

"what~ are you looking for kanroji-san or something?" uzui teased, the black-haired male replied with a stern look.

"why are you teasing me when you could be teasing the loner about.." they exchanged smug looks.

"about what?" giyuu asked plainly.

"oh- don't bother. kanroji-san already told us!" uzui winked.

"no idea what you're talking about." giyuu said.
