Would You Rather?

Baby Boy~

On Wednesday when school ended I headed straight for Wakasa's gym, everything was going smoothly, yet under the training pass, my pretty instructor took notice of the existence of my bruises, which were the remains from yesterday's fight.

"Did you fall again?" He asked as I gasped, quite disappointed at the fact that was his first conclusion on the matter.

"How dare you Waka, Waka? I fought three dudes at once yesterday and ended up winning with minor injuries, why are you dismissing my achievements?"

"So how was the fight?" Suddenly he got chattier.

"I made them eat dirt!" I shot a smile, being quite proud of this accomplishment. His hands suddenly reached for my head and patted it gently.

"Good job." I heard the words being spoken. It was nice being treated as a kid, but before he retreated his hand, I caught it demanding more praise and pats.

Before the training reached its end course, we witnessed a few new faces that never stepped foot in this facility before.

"Draken, Emma, Mikey... what are you guys doing here?" I asked after avoiding Wakasa's kick.

"So it wasn't a lie, that you were taking fighting lessons from Wakasa." Draken seemed deep in thought, did this beanpole doubt Keisuke's words? But on what merit?

"Sorry Michi, Mikey wanted to hang out with you, and I heard from Senju you were supposed to be here," Emma explained the situation to me, as Wakasa decided to wrap up the lesson for today.

"I see but what is the occasion?" I jumped down from the ring.

"We're going on a date," Draken announced while placing his arm around Emma's waist.

"So you will have the honor to babysit Mikey." I thought Mikey would be annoyed by the fact he was treated as a kid in front of those people, but no he seemed in fact enthusiastic.

"She babysitting Mikey? Isn't he older than her?" Takeomi couldn't believe what he heard, as I nodded my head agreeing with the adult.

"Knowing Michi she shall be the one bringing chaos to the table, shouldn't Mikey babysit her instead?" Now it was just slander coming from this smoker's mouth.

"Just because I chose you as my victim of endless jokes, it doesn't mean everyone else will receive such treatment!" I corrected him.

"I understand your suffering." Draken patted Takeomi's back and suddenly the two beanpoles were bonding over the fact.

"Weirdos," I muttered under my breath and decided to head to the changing room. Once I returned the love birds were gone and I was left looking after Mikey.

"Let's go eat, I'm starving." But it seemed like the boy next to me had other plans.

"Can't we just hang out at your house? I heard from Baji you invite him all the time." Was this the kind of lies he had been telling to others?

"First I must apologize... I would let you come over, but you know how iffy Kazutora is with seeing you... his mental state at the time is not the best, and I don't want you both to end up in a fight." Thankfully he understood my reasoning.

"Also to be clear, I'm not the one inviting Keisuke over, he either is invited by my brother, or he invites himself. I bet I only asked him over like max three times." Mikey laughed at my explanation.

"Yes, that sounds like something he would do."

After chatting a little bit, we found a restaurant that Mikey wanted to visit. Too bad for him, they didn't have the flags on the kid's meal as he wanted, so I got to witness this pouty child acting like one. The staff was apologizing for the inconvenience so much so that a mission popped up.
