My charm? (Hakouoki Fanfic)

Little Rabbit

———————————————————-

———————————————————-

After finally getting clothed, I decide to thank my so caring greedy driver and get off to meet a cute and sweet dango shop. 'Well isn't that convenient!' I think as my stomach rumbles, yelling at me.

I sweat-drop and walk into the shop pushing past the noren curtain that stands before me. I sigh as I breathe in the heavenly sweet delight aroma that fills up the air around me. As if drawing me in, I walk into the store and look around to see..is that really Hijikata and Sanan?

I prance my way over towards them and sit right across from the two males as they both raise their heads at me on alert but settling down once they notice that it's me.

"Really? You guys left me, and didn't come back. Even decided to get DANGO without me?!" I exclaim almost crying out, looking at the beautiful array of dango that Hijikata has in front of him.

"You said you can handle yourself. Plus you seem like you needed the rest." Hijikata swiftly says as he dabs his face with a cloth gracefully. Sanan nods at Hijikatas explanation, almost as if agreeing to shut me up.

"It's not like you even delt with any trouble, we were the ones dealing with ronin and actually doing worthwhile errands." Hijikata nonchalantly says as he munches on his dango.

"...really?" I sweat-drop at the comment. I gaze at his half lidded eyes as he gives me a 'what? Am I wrong?' Look. I chuckle sightly.
"does running-" I stop myself before I can give them the full story I think about what it may entail....'not being able to go outside without a guard or even at all....hmm I'll pass' I giggle.

"You are absolutely right! Nothing happened." I give both of the men before me a fake smile and quickly steal several dango off of Hijikatas plate.

"I'm glad, did you enjoy the hot spring?" Sanan says as he chuckles softly after seeing Hijikatas annoyed face with the missing dango.

"Oh most definitely! I even loved the part how no one told me it was a public bath!" I smile softly and eat the golden glazed dango that I so happily stole from Hijikata.

He coughs slightly, spitting out the tea he was drinking. "What?!" Sanan exclaims worriedly, 'did he really not know?' I think as I gaze at both of them as they have shocked and semi angry looks on their faces.

"I'm afraid I did not know, I apologize." Hijikata says with the softest tone I've ever heard come out of his mouth, he leans forward slightly gazing into my eyes and I gulp from the sudden closeness. "Are you okay? Nothing happened right?"

I am semi shocked by the clear worry that resides on his face, making his face crease. 'Do I tell them the truth?' I think as I gaze over to Sanan who is looking at me expectingly looking for answers.
'Nah, I wouldn't want to cause any trouble and delay on this mission.' I sigh and shake my head with a frown.

"The only thing wrong is the fact that only old men came into the bath. Not even a single hot man came to enjoy the pleasures of the hot spring with me." I huff and cross my arms looking dejected. I glance up at them both and they look annoyed and Hijikata leans back almost immediately.

"I'm not even surprised. I'll join you next time." He finishes swiftly and takes a drink of his tea smirking as I am caught off guard by the random flirtatious comment.

"Hmph...and who said you were hot?" I raise my eyebrow at the sheer audacity of the man before me, Sanan laughs slightly but covers it with a cough.

"Hmmm? Oh I definitely am not mistaken with that statement when you were moaning my name so loudly last night. Even the neighbors congratulated me when they saw us this morning." He said with a proud look drawn across his face as I freeze in horror.

"W-what did y-you say?" I stutter a blushing mess, completely forgetting that most likely the entire inn heard me last night. I ram my head into the wooden table, trying to crush my skull and hopefully take me out. 'Kill me. Please.'

I hear laughing from the two males across from me and I simply want to rot away and fade from existence currently. I continue to lay dejected on the table trying to conjure a quick demise for myself.

Hijikata and Sanan finish with their teasing and chuckles as they briefly gather their belongings and nudge me, notifying me we are leaving. But I refuse, and stay glued to my seat. I hear someone sigh and grab me by the arm and throw me over their shoulder and I yelp. I see a green yukata and notice it is Sanan that has picked me up.

"P-put me down! I want to DIE!" I frown and pounce on the males' back that is holding me multiple times to show my frustration. But Sanan chuckles and walks with Hijikata out of the shop with me still residing on his shoulder.

He readjusts me and wraps his arm around my ass, slightly squeezing it. I squirm, flailing my legs obnoxiously. "Y-You Bastard!" I yell as I hear Hijikata laughing, 'I hate them.' I think as I continue to thrash around relentlessly.

I huff with annoyance as I foresee my struggle being fruitless and lay my elbow on his shoulder to prop my head up and notice several men stalking us from behind and approaching fast.

I notice this and slap Sanans back quite harshly, he flinches and squeezes my ass just as harshly. I smack him once more, "S-Stop you idiot!! We are being followed!!!" I yell in annoyance as he tightens his hold as Hijikata and Sanan both turn around to see 20 men surrounding them from behind, as Sanan turns I notice even more men in the alleys that we were walking towards. 'Shit! We really are surrounded!'

"I heard two little birdies from the Shinsengumi were prancing along in our town, but no one told me that they had a beautiful little rabbit with them." A low and menacing voice announces from behind me, and I feel Sanan grip tighten profusely.

"Now boys, kill those two worthless rats but leave the little doll to me~"
