Scaramunch Oneshot (Fem Reader)

Oneshot 3

Your drinks have been served and the tension has somewhat been lifted. You look over at Scaramouche, who looks a little agitated.

"What's up?" You ask him.

"Nothing." He looks over at you, flicking your forehead. "Pay for my drink."

"What?? Why?"

"You still owe me."

"..." You grumble in annoyance.

Ayaka seizes the opportunity. "Owe? Like money-wise?"

You nod, painfully being reminded of the upcoming rent. Despite Scaramouche being as rich as he is, you never felt the need to ask him to cover rent by himself. You felt a bit guilty doing so and you know that he'd always mention it and demand something from you; a piece of your food, to drive him somewhere...it could be anything, but he'd milk it until the last drop.

"Isn't Scaramouche really rich, though? Considering Raiden Ei being CEO or something and all.." Ayaka glances at the twins, and they make a move too.

"Yeah, it doesn't seem all that fair.. does Y/n repay you in some other forms?" Lumine asks with an innocent smile.

Scaramouche blushes and takes a sip of his tea to hide his face. In return, you blush a little as well. "..What in the world are you talking about?" He asks.

"Hm? We obviously meant cleaning, cooking.. that type of repayment." Aether chimes in, causing you two the blush a little harder.

"Ah, just like how I act for Ayato and miss Ayaka, right?" Thoma chirps. "It doesn't have to be repayment in money if Scaramouche already has lots of it, right?" He seemed to be slowly catching on and having fun with this as well, whereas Ayato wanted out. He was only there for the boba and Thoma, but in the direction this conversation is headed, they might not leave until closing time.

"Hmph. Why not?" Scaramouche scoffs. Obviously eager but hiding it just barely.

"I dunno...not really all that good with cooking or cleaning if I'm going to be honest. Scaramouche takes care of it all." You say, causing an "Oho!" Out of Ayaka and her eyes glimmer delightfully. Meanwhile the twins looked to be scheming something. Just whag were they thinking? Even Paimon was looking smug!

"And would you look at that," Ayato says nonchalantly, as if this situation wasn't keeping him on the edge of his seat, lightly shaking his empty boba cup. "I'm all out of boba." He smiles softly.
"Come on, Thoma. You seem to be running low as well. It's not often I get to go out and drink boba like this." He drags Thoma away to ofder another cup of boba to give you and Scara fewer eyes to focus on.

"Oh, look! I guess me and Ayato are siblings after all. I've finished my cup as well. What about you three? Wanna order more?" Ayaka smiles at the twins and the dog, and they inhale the rest of their drinks. "Yup! Wow, we sure drank it pretty fast, huh?" Aether says, scooting out of the booth seat.

"Yeah. But don't worry you two, we'll be right back!" Lumine grabs her purse which holds Paimon inside, and they all stand in line, away from the two of you in this private booth seat. Where not a lot of eyes can wander inside.

You awkwardly take a sip of your drink, sighing afterward. Despite everyone acting weirdly today, the drinks made up for it. It was nice and satisfying and suited your taste perfectly. Ayaka really had a good eye for restaurants and whatnot!

Scaramouche looks around, then sits upright. Glancing at you a couple times before speaking, "You know.. what do you think they were all getting at?" Scaramouche hadn't spoken a word during that entire conversation so you just assumed he was spacing out or something, but he's a little more perceptive than he looks to be.
