Blush- Gundham Tanaka x OC

Chapter 31

this chapter had me bawlin😛

-

As I wake up to the ringing of a doorbell, the strong, bitter scent of oranges hits me right in the face. I giggle, sitting up and spotting the half devoured orange cake that was make yesterday laying on top of the coffee table.

The funniest thing about it is that the cake wasn't even cut using a knife, it was mauled to pieces by our hands. I spot some cake crumb infested wine glasses on the floor too. Jesus Christ, what even happened last night? Shit must've got hectic by the looks of it. It was really fun though.

So fun that I passed out in the glass cabinet under the television. I wiggle my way out, rolling over as I do so and giggle. Ibuki spots me and laughs with me. "What what? Why was Koko in there?!" she giggles, pressing down on her two horns.

"Don't ask me," I giggle, the two of us falling into a fit of hysterics that manages to wake Kazuichi from his deep slumber.

"Huh?" he grunts, grumbling from on top of the kitchen counter. We all look at each other's sleeping positions, dying of laughter as we do so. The doorbell rings again. "Bollocks, we should probably go get that."

"Who could it be at this time of night?" Kaz questions, peeing up at the clock through sleep glued eyes. "It's 2am. I thought it was the morning?"

"Well technically it is," I chuckle.

"Let's go check who it is!" Ibuki whispers menacingly, getting out of the storage box.

We all set foot into the hallway, creeping over to the door as Kaz opens it.

And there stands Gundham Tanaka.

My heart drops to my stomach.

There's an awkward, tense silence looming around the room, me cowering away feeling like my heart has been torn out and stomped all over yet again. Ibuki has a concerned expression, ready to take me away if necessary, Kazuichi looking like he's about to beat the shit out of him, Gundham's expression remaining neutral.

"Hello, may I speak to Yae-"

"No the fuck you may not," Kaz says, trying to holding back his anger.

"Koko, let's go," Ibuki breathes, worry in her voice. We almost reach the bedroom door before more shouting arises, catching my attention and causing me to freeze in my tracks.

"I need to speak to her, it's important, move out of my way."

"She doesn't wanna fucking talk to you, look st her!!" Kaz yells, flailing his arm in mine and Ibuki's direction. I tear up, holding onto Ibuki and quivering behind her. Gundham makes eye contact with me for a second, concern in his orbs.

"Yaeko, please I-"

"Did you not fucking hear me?! No. You are going to stay out here with me and you are going to FUCKING EXPLAIN to me why you thiught it would be a brilliant idea to lead on Koko like that then tear her to FUCKING PIECES," he barks, holding up his arm so that Gundham can't pass through. "And Koko is gonna stay FAR BACK in a room with someone who can actually hold her TRUST."

As Ibuki leads me into the bedroom, my jaw drops to the floor and lays there for a good few minutes, and so does hers. I'm unable to pick mime up just from the utter shock of seeing Kaz like that.

"I've never seen him that pent up before...Jesus Christ," I gasp.

"Listen though! Both our hubbies are going at each other's throats!! Wanna place bets on who's hubby will win?" Ibuki asks unseriously, giggling.

"I would, except Gundham's not my hubby, that ended a week ago when he decided to choose Sonia," I sigh.

"But wait, Sonia told you it was a misunderstanding right? Through the phone yesterday?"
