10: Inumaki Toge (slight r18)
Alt. Title: wherein one Inumaki Toge becomes shameless beyond compare

A loud shriek echoed in the haunted house that scared even the employees inside.

"T-T-To... Toge! Get it off! Get it off me!"

"Tarako!"

"What cotton?! It's obviously a spiderweb! Hurry, get it off me!"

.

.

"WU! WHY DID WE ENTER THIS PLACE?!"

"Ume!"

"YOU SHOULD HAVE STOPPED ME! It must have been on a moment of impulse! I don't want to go back here in the future! You must remind me!"

"... shake shake."

.

.

"Toge, what was that?! Something slipped pass my foot!"

"Okaka."

"What do you mean there's nothing there— shit, don't put me down! I said don't put me down! What if it comes back?!"

"Okaka."

"Toge!"

.

.

At the exit of the haunted house, the passerbys watched as a young adult crouched at the nearest corner and dry heaved all his fear out.

Inumaki Toge drew circles on his back, a helpless smile plastered on his face hidden behind the scarf Shunsuke gifted him last winter. While drawing circles, he also held Shunsuke's long hair away from his face in case he vomited for real.

"Remind me—" came the linguaphile's weak voice. "— to never enter a haunted house again. Ever."

"Shake shake."

"Good— erk."

.

.

"Uh, you don't have to buy so much, Toge." At the side, Ito Shunsuke watched with an aching heart as Inumaki Toge bought clothes one after another without stop.

The sorcerer bought not only for his lover but also for his lover's siblings.

"Torigomoku."

"But all of that won't fit in the house."

"Yaki shake."

"Wastrel. You're really a wastrel."

Who wears a set of clothes once and throw it away right after?!

No, not wastrel. Toge was just stupidly rich.

.

.

"Nii-chan, I'm going to see Yuu-nii and Noba-nee!" Himehime grabbed her back and dashed out of the door, not even giving her brother a single glance.

The second year middle school student had long attached herself to Yuuji and Nobara — the two became her most favorite people in the world, only right after Mama Ito and her eldest brother.

But for Shunsuke, he felt like he'd been on the third of the list which often made him sulk.

Fortunately, Toge was there to comfort him.

Three years had already passed since Inumaki Toge confessed to Ito Shunsuke.
