♡ Private School | Hinakoma/Komahina | FINISHED ♡

21 | Chased

The door swung open. There stood several men in all black clothing.

"Komaeda, get away from him!" A man shouted.

"Wh-who are you?!" The pale boy asked.

"Komaeda, stay with me." Hinata said, poiting his gun at them.

"Put down the gun!" One of them threatened, also poiting a gun at Hinata.

'They can't shoot me when Komaeda's behind me,' Hinata thought.

"What do you want from Hinata-kun?" Komaeda asked them.

"We know you're a spy. Takahashi hired us to get rid of you," They said to the brunet.

In a matter of seconds, Hinata grabbed Komaeda and jumped out the window. He ran as fast as he could.

"What about Kamukura-kun??" Komaeda frantically asked.

"I'm over here." The dark haired boy said before breaking open the door of a car. They got inside and Hinata began to drive.

"What the heck is going on??" Komaeda wanted to know.

"I don't know. They're probably hitmen or something. He said the principal hired him, right?"

"Mhm,"

"Shit... shit shit shit!" He shouted. "I'm sorry, Komaeda. I should've never roped you into this," Hinata apologized.

"What's gonna happen to us?"

Gunshots could be heard from behind them. Komaeda looked out the window and saw a car chasing after them.

"Where are we gonna go?"

"You'll be fine. I swear," Hinata said.

Kamukura pressed down on his wristwatch. "I alerted the boss,"

"Thanks. Komaeda, again, I'm so sorry. Once this is over, I'll... buy you whatever you want, yeah?"

"Uhm, okay." He nodded.

A while later, they were still driving, but now a helicopter was flying above them. It extended a ladder out to the three boys.

"Komaeda, you go first. Just to be safe," Hinata commanded.

The pale boy opened the car door while they were still driving. He was extremely scared. "H-how do I..?"

"You'll be fine. I won't let you die," Hinata promised once more.

Komaeda grabbed onto the ladder, but one of his hands slipped off. He screamed. It was windy and the ladder kept flying around in the wind.

Hinata jumped out of the car. Kamukura climbed into the driver's seat as quickly as possible.

The brunet grabbed Komaeda's wrist and helped him grab onto the ladder again. He quickly climbed up with Komaeda right behind him. The hitmen didn't shoot since they weren't supposed to kill Komaeda. Last but not least, Kamukura stopped the car and climbed up too.

"How the hell did you mess up this bad?!" A man shouted inside the helicopter.

"Shut the fuck up!" Hinata shouted back. He was absolutely aggravated. "And get a better ladder for your dumbass helicopter! Komaed almost died!"

"...sorry,"

Hinata was extremely scary when he was angry. Komaeda was glad Hinata liked him or else he would be in trouble.

"Are you okay?" He asked, turning towards the pale boy.

"I-I... wanna go home,"

"I'm sorry, but not right now. But I'll bring you home as soon as possible,"

-

They arrived at the headquarters of Hinata's organization.

"Hajime-kun! Izuru-kun!" Haru said, running towards them. "Are you guys okay? Please tell me you're okay!" They pulled them into a hug.

"We're alright,"

Komaeda looked around, holding onto Hinata's arm.

"I don't want you guys sleeping here, I never liked this place... I'll take you home with me, okay?"

"Yeah, sure," Hinata agreed.

-

They arrived at Haru's house. Komaeda was still quiet as he sat down on the couch.

"Komaeda-kun?" Haru asked.

"...Yes?"

"Do you want a hot chocolate? I know this must be a lot to take in," they gently said.

"...mhm. Thank you." He nodded.

As Haru went to make the drink, Hinata sat down next to Komaeda.

"Everything's gonna be fine. I promise,"

"Y-you keep promising so many things..."

"And have I broken any of my promises so far?"

"I guess not,"

Hinata smiled. "See? You'll be fine. And I'm sorry for yelling when we were in the helicopter. That must've scared you. I won't do it again,"

The pale boy put his head on Hinata's shoulder.

"Here. A hot chocolate with marshmallows,"

"Thank you,"

"You're welcome. Also, are you like... y'know?"

"Hm?"

"Dating,"

"No. Why does everyone think I'm his boyfriend?" Hinata asked, chuckling.

"Well... you'd make a cute couple," Haru told them. "A really cute one, come to think of it,"

"We would??" Komaeda asked, eyes sparkling.

"Of course. Especially when how much Hajime-kun's promised to protect you. But don't feel pressured to date if you don't like each other like that!"

"Yeah, I know." Hinata nodded. "Speaking of which, I gotta find a girlfriend. I mean, I need to get married when I'm older,"

Komaeda sighed. Hinata was straight, wasn't he? He only ever talked about girls like that.

"Anyway, you've almost finished the cup. After that, you guys should go to bed,"

That's when Komaeda remembered the situation they were in. He had almost completely forgotten. Haru was a calming person to be around, that was probably why.

Upstairs, there was a guest room with one bed. Hinata didn't want Komaeda to be uncomfortable, so they decided that the brothers would just share the bed instead of one of them sharing it with Komaeda. The pale boy slept on the couch.

As he took off his shoes and jacket, Haru came into the living room again.

"So, you like Hajime-kun?"

Komaeda's cheeks turned pink. "What?"

"I could tell by the look on your face,"

"Fine... yes, I do," he admitted.

"Alright." Haru smiled. "Hajime-kun likes people who trust him and feel safe around him. And I'm sure he would want someone who has the same visions for their future as him. He's very determined to become a good husband and father when he's older. I doubt he will ever change his mind about that. And if you have a different idea of what your life will be like, I doubt he would want to date you,"

"But he wants to date a girl... not a boy,"

"I wouldn't be so sure about that. I mean, he definitely likes girls, but... he might play for both teams,"

"Hm?"

"I mean, he has two hands, right? He could swing both ways,"

"You're saying he's bi?"

"I'm saying there's a chance. I don't know for sure, but you should try your luck,"

Komaeda shook his head. "But I don't wanna ask him out..."

"Then you gotta wait for him to ask you,"
