Love In Borderland Niragi x OC x Chishiya

Shuntaro Chishiya

"Welcome to my room" Chishiya said and Kagami's eyes scanned the room that was pretty much identical to all of the other ones. 

"Wow, I love the uniqueness to this room." She deadpanned, earning a small smile in return.

Chishiya gestured for her to take a seat but rather than sit down on one of the chairs, Kagami decided to lay back on Chishiya's King sized bed with her hands resting behind her bed. It had been a long day and she needed this chance to lay down without the risk of Niragi walking into the room.

"So, what's this about, blondie?" Kagami asked. Chishiya frowned for only a second at the sound of the nickname before he took a seat on the edge of the bed.

"Well, Kuina's told me about these new... rules, if you could even call them rules... that you need to follow. Niragi seems to really have it out for me, huh?" Hearing the words coming out of Chishiya's mouth made the idea of the truce sound incredibly stupid and Kagami couldn't help but laugh and sit up.

"I told Suguru years ago that I have a thing for blondes to annoy him and he hasn't really let that go." She said in a lighthearted tone, her eyes shifting back to scanning the room, "So, what do you think about Arisu? His little stunt to protect Usagi was admirable. I don't know many men that would openly go up against Suguru like that." Kagami said seriously, "More importantly, is he an ally or a pawn? Are we including Usagi in this as well? I feel like they're more of a package deal so it might be worth bringing them both into the plan." Kagami was somewhat talking to herself, but she could feel Chishiya's eyes locked onto her as he listened quietly. As soon as Kagami's eyes returned to Chishiya's gaze he spoke once more,

"Always straight to the point with you." Chishiya sighed, looking her up and down, "Until it comes to Niragi strangely enough." Chishiya wore a smirk on his face that made Kagami roll her eyes. Of course they weren't here to discuss the plan. Kagami understood Chishiya's hesitation about her when it came to her relationship with Niragi. But, she just figured it would be something they would plan around later down the track.

"Wow, you and Suguru really are obsessed with each other. Have you even had a proper conversation?" She asked with a grin.

"I don't need to have a proper conversation with Niragi to know what type of man he is." Chishiya replied. "Which is more of a reason for you to rip off the band aid and end things before the plan sets into motion. These little secret meetings are going to become harder and harder to manage as the plan goes on and it will be easier to escape without Niragi hunting you down." Kagami nodded softly. Chishiya's words made a lot of sense... before the introduction of the new rule.

"Hang on, it's not going to matter if I'm with him or not when we leave. You said it yourself when you first brought me into this plan that the third rule would mean that Hatter and the militant corp would hunt me down to kill me for betraying the Beach, especially considering that I'm a Beach executive." Kagami told him with a smile. Chishiya watched her expression for a few seconds before he chuckled lightly.

"You really are clever." He smirked. "There's no manipulating you, is there?" He asked and Kagami knew too well he wasn't expecting an answer to the question. "Alright then, it doesn't matter if you break things off with him or not. But, I would have thought you'd have jumped on any opportunity to end things considering you were planning to ditch him and head off on your own." He told her.

"Have you considered that maybe, just maybe, you don't understand him and I as well as you think you do?" Kagami asked and Chishiya scoffed at her.

"Of course I understand." He replied. "You're afraid of being alone because your parents treated you like you were worthless. Then comes Niragi, the 'saviour' who got you away from them and changed your life and because he treats you slightly better than your parents ever did, you've become comfortable. Sound about right?" He asked and Kagami simply glared at him in response, causing him to continue, "What you don't see is that your intelligence and beauty is enough to get you anything you wanted. Look at how Hatter treats you. You think he has a soft spot for you just because you're an executive?" He asked. "Niragi can see this as well which is why he wants every man in this place to stay away from you. Because, what could Niragi offer if you worked out how desirable you really are?" The question caused Kagami to laugh. She wasn't stupid, she was well aware that she had some level of beauty that was enough to draw the attention of some men. Niragi's jealousy had been a clear indicator of that years ago.
