Alhaitham/Cyno ✨

"Your two bodyguards are fighting over you."

(A/N: This is a compilation of various excerpts from a longer fic. As of posting this, it's still in the works but it should be posted soon.)

You didn't need bodyguards. Yet your overprotective father insisted on hiring them. He hired one for each member of the family but you had to end up with two.

"I know your rebellious tendencies, young lady. I'm putting a stop to your unauthorized going out." He reprimanded.

"(B/N) only has one. Why am I getting two?" You groaned, opposed to the whole idea from the start.

"Because your brother isn't notorious at sneaking out at night for frivolous parties." He growled.

"This isn't fair. It isn't my fault you decided to piss off some shady institution."

"Don't argue with me, (Y/N). Whether you like it or not you're a target now. If they get to you, we'll all be in trouble." He hissed, shutting any other complaints you might have had down. He snapped his fingers, calling out for one of the 'servants', "Bring them in."

The door opened, two neatly dressed men with stern, almost emotionless expressions entered the room. Their presence completely changed the atmosphere of your room. To any normal person, they would be extremely intimidating.

'They definitely look the part of bodyguards." You thought, scanning them up and down for any hint of weakness you could exploit later when needed. 'Even if one of them is pretty short, I shouldn't underestimate them.'

"(Y/N). This is Alhaitham and Cyno. They're your bodyguards from now on." Your father introduced, gesturing to them respectively. "You'd do good to not cause any trouble they'd have to clean up."

*********************

"May I ask where you're going?" Cyno's voice sounded from beside you as you exited your room, obviously dressed to go outside.

"You may not." You answered, ready to leave before Alhaitham stopped you by gently but firmly gripping your arm.

"We're not allowed to let you leave without a good reason." Cyno insisted.

"What is this? Since when was this place a fucking prison? I'm going out, simple as that. I have a social life I need to keep up." You shrugged, slipping out of Alhaitham's grip, making your way through the ridiculously large house your family lived in to the front door. You quickly realized you were being followed and stopped with a sigh 'They won't let up, will they?'

"I'm afraid we can't let you go alone, Miss (Y/N)." Alhaitham informed blocking your way to the door. "We were instructed to not let you out of our sight."

"Give me a break. I'm literally just going to the mall with friends." You rolled your eyes.

"Fine. In that case, we're coming with you."

*********************

"Sit still, damn it." You ordered, trying to get Alhaitham to cooperate.

"Get your hands off me, (Y/N)." He grunted, wrestling your hands away from his hair, "You're not using that on me."

"If you insist on keeping me locked up and always hanging around. You better keep me entertained in the meantime." You argued, a slight smirk appearing on your lips as you tilted your hand a little, the liquid splashing around in the bottle, " if you don't stop struggling, I'll drop it and you'll be rinsing it out of your clothes for weeks."
