Fireflies in The Field of Higanbana (Mikey X Reader)

Chapter 5

Feeling you are being tugged away from him and you stopped at your track, you could see his cold expression when he looked at you and your junior. That lifeless eyes he has, made you and your junior shudder. Being young and having a bad temper, he pulled you and stood in front of you, "What ya want from senpai?! You aren't from-". Not finished with his words, you could see Mikey already throwing his punch to your junior. Your eyes widened and saw how everything happened so fast and seeing your junior already fall on the floor from one single punch, "Don't get in my way...". You looked at him shocked when hearing him saying that coldly. "You fuck-", you hurriedly grab your junior's shoulder, "Enough! Stop this!!". Seeing how his lips are bleeding thanks to that punch, you can't help but tremble in fear. "But, senpa-!", "I SAID ENOUGH!", you shout at him, he could see fear and worries mixed in your eyes and how your trembling hands tightly gripped his shoulder, made him fall silent and staying still. "Y/nchin-", "Leave...", his eyes widened when heard your words. You looked over your shoulder as you met mikey's eyes, "..Please leave, mikey-kun.. ". He fall silent as he watched how you helped your junior to get up on his feet. Seems the sight annoyed him as you could hear a slight annoyances in his tones, "Don't wanna...". Ah god how you want to snap at how childish he is and just smack his arm, "If all you could cause was things like this.. I prefer you to leave.. I hate it when people always resort to violence..". Your voice trembled a little when saying those words yet you seems managed to say your pieces to him, "..Let's treat your wounds, Hito-kun..".

-Mikey's POV-

Feeling her suddenly stopped and the time he saw her being taken away by this random guy. He didn't know why but something inside him just snapped. Somehow he just hates the fact that the other guy touched her and took her away from him. The rage he felt inside of him moved his body by itself as he threw his punch to that guy's face, "Don't get in my way...". He saw how she stopped him from getting up from the floor. Oh how he hates it seeing her being friendly and all touchy with him, 'Why is she so worried about this weak ass guy...'. Hearing her shout at that guy, somehow lightened his mood, 'Yea.. that's what you got for getting in my way, idiot..'. A smile almost made it to his face as he was about to reach out to her, "Y/nchin-", yet he heard your words telling him to leave. He felt the sharp pain inside his chest, why did she chased him away? Telling him to leave. He did nothing wrong!. Feeling upset, he clenched his fists as he looked at her with an annoyed expression, "Don't wanna...". "If all you could cause was things like this.. I prefer you to leave.. I hate it when people always resort to violence..", clenched his teeth, for some reason her words enough to hurt his feelings. "It's not my fault. He started it first-", "Mikey-kun.. It doesn't really matter whose fault it is. You have a choice to not hit him, yet you did anyway.. If a fight you are looking for, please don't do it here or in front of me.. ", standing there watching her leaving with that guy, he saw how that guy glanced at him with a faint smirk. Oh how he wanted to pummeled that face but he knows if he did that, he would upset her more. He furrowed his brows in confusion, a bit wondered why would he care if she is upset with him. Why did he even bother looking for her today? "Sanzu.. Why are we here?", he still stare at the empty corridor that she has left, still trying to figure what kind of feelings inside of him that lead him to this place today. "You said you are looking for her to talk about something, boss.. Should I take care about that guy for you? How dare he standing in your way...", he shook his head hearing sanzu's words, "..There is something more important thing to do rather than that, sanzu.. Let's get y/nchin with us first.. ". 

After mikey and sanzu t̶h̶r̶e̶a̶t̶e̶n̶   asking nicely some passing by students, they finally found the infirmary room. Yet for some reason, he didn't just went inside. He standing there, eavesdropping, "You shouldn't do something like that, Hito-kun.. Mikey is my friend. Why are you picking fights with him?", "But senpai, it just he looked like he is a punk and it just-", "Please don't talk bad about him..", hearing you scolded the guy from outside that room, again his moods lightened for unknown reason. "Please apologies to him the time you meet him again.. That was really rude of you", that even end up bring a small smile to his face for a brief moment when he heard how he know she is on his side. Decided to opened the door, he saw how it surprised them, "Found you..". "M-mikey? what are you doing still here???", she looked at him surprised as she saw how he just waltz inside that room like nothing has happened before. "I told you I'm here to find you. If you done, let's go..", he could heard her sighing as she back looked away from him while cleaning up the first aid kits, "I can't I need to go to library". "Why? That place is boring", never he could understand why people like going to such place. "Ha! Someone like ya won't understand why senpai-", he saw her glare at the guy as he flinched and hurriedly looked down to his lap, "...S-sorry, senpai". Again she let out a small sigh, "I need to study for my entrance exam. Hito-kun, don't you have something to say to Mikey?". "Ugh.. H-hey, man.. S-sorry bout before..", he grumbling under his breath. Being petty person he is, he looked at the guy with cold looks, "Can't hear you...". "Ha??", he could see how the guy back with his temper. They then heard the loud clap from her, "That's it!". Seems she know well how to stopped it before another fight break again. That sure gained their attention, "Hito-kun, I believe you are late for practice and Mikey-kun, please leave.. This isn't your school. What are you even doing here?". Her junior sighed as he could see him took his leave, 'Yeah scram you shit...'. "How many times I've told you I'm here picking you up", he sighed as he start to felt annoyed by her same questions, yet somehow he never tired seeing how those faint blush made their way to her cheeks. "That is.. That's not the point! I meant why would you want to pick me up?? It's still really early in the morning.. Most of schools are still in winter break... I also can't go with you.. Like I said I need to do something at library. Please understand..", he silent a bit as he sighed, "..fine". He could see her face brightened, seeing that, his heart somehow fluttered a little, '...what...was...that...'.
