Love Game (Toji Fushiguro x Fem!Reader)

Chapter 2 : Annoying

"Good morning, sunshine. Wake up on the wrong side of the bed?" Toji teased you, his lips curving into a smirk as he devoured the sandwich he had prepared for himself.

You stood there outside your bedroom door in your pajamas, rubbing your sleepy eyes, "I wish I could say the same for you, but at least my bed didn't get stained last night." You couldn't believe how calm you sounded at the moment.

Toji laughed. "Ah, jealous because you missed out? Don't worry, I'll keep you company next time." He winked. And you wanted to punch him.

You gave him a death glare and made your way to the fridge. "What's for breakfast?" you grumbled, grabbing some cereal.

Toji chuckled, "Well, you can either have the sandwich I have or the cereal you're holding."

You grunted, feeling the tension building once again. You really didn't want to be civil with him. But breakfast was crucial. You reluctantly settled into a seat across from him.

He continued to smirk as he ate, seeming to enjoy the fact that you were uncomfortable. He knew exactly how to get under your skin, and he loved every minute of it.

You tried to focus on your cereal and ignore Toji, but it was hard with the way he looks at you. It was as if he was trying to burn a hole through your skull. You frowned and sipped your milk, trying to block out his presence. Toji wasn't subtle about his gaze. He stared at you, taking in every movement you made, from the way you munched your cereal to how you licked off the milk that clung to your lips.

You could feel the heat rushing into your cheeks as you tried to ignore his lascivious stare. But Toji had to push your buttons. "You're blushing. Do you want me to do something about it?"

The audacity of this man!!! You wanted to throw your spoon at him, but instead, you ignored him, took one last bite of your cereal, and stormed out of the kitchen. "Make sure you clean up after yourself, pig."

"Oh, don't worry. I'll leave you something to remember me by." Toji joked, his voice trailing behind you.

He did not care. He knew he was pushing your boundaries, and he enjoyed doing it. For him, it was a game of cat-and-mouse. But for you, it was hell living under the same roof with a shameless, womanizing, and annoying individual.

At this point, you wished you never helped him.

~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~

You emerged from the bathroom, a towel draped over your body, and water droplets trickling down from your skin. You weren't entirely naked, but Toji's eyes lingered on you, taking in the sight.

"Need some help drying off?" he suggested with a lecherous grin.

The smugness in his tone was too much. Your blood started boiling instantly, and you whirled around, ready to let him have it. "Keep your fantasies to yourself, you disgusting pervert." you hissed.

The guts of this man knew no bounds. He only laughed and walked away, seemingly unfazed by your wrath. It was situations like these that made you want to strangle him.

[15 minutes later]

You stepped out of the apartment, ready to head to work, when you saw Toji standing beside his car, looking suave in his black leather jacket. He held out the passenger door for you with a grin.

Initially, you declined, "No thanks. I'll just walk."

Toji's grin widened. "C'mon, it's raining. And it'll take you ages to get there walking."

The rain was starting to pick up, and you groaned, contemplating whether to accept his offer or not. Toji leaned against the car, adding teasingly, "I could give you some pointers on how to catch a guy while I drive you to work. You know, make you less pathetic in the dating department."

You glared at him, ready to snap back, but something in his eyes made you hesitate. Reluctantly, you conceded. "Fine, but only because it's raining and you better drive safely."

Toji smile widened, "Deal. Get in."

Inside the car, the tension was high, but Toji didn't mind it. He thrived on it. He was determined to get under your skin, and today, he won another round. You were stuck with him, whether you liked it or not.

"I've never seen you wear a miniskirt before." Toji remarked, his gaze drawn to your thighs. He couldn't resist a chuckle. "Looking to impress someone new?"

Your jaw tensed, and your knuckles gripped the seat tightly. "No, I'm dressed appropriately for my job. And today is a special day at the office, that's why." you replied curtly, trying to ignore the heat pooling in your cheeks.

Toji continued to shift his gaze between the road and your legs, seemingly entranced by it. His eyes sparkled with a mixture of amusement and hunger. "Must be quite the workplace, huh?"

You rolled your eyes and crossed your arms, hoping he'd move on from the subject. But Toji was relentless. "You should try dressing like this more often. Guys might start to take notice."

"Like I care what random men think." you snapped, wanting to get out of the car and walk the rest of the way to work.

But Toji just grinned, "Eventually, you'll change your mind, mark my words."

The comment irked you, and you glared at him, your silence was your only response. He, however, was content, completely oblivious to how aggravated you were. He reveled in making you squirm, and he had succeeded once again.

~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~

[Outside your workplace...]

Your face burned with embarrassment as Toji loudly called out "Take care, my love." in front of your coworkers. He waved as if you two were a thing.

You stormed out of the car, fuming. "You fucking asshole!"

He sauntered off, leaving you seething. You stormed into the building, eager to escape the humiliation. As you entered your office, you heard the snickers and whispers of your coworkers.

"Did I hear him call you 'my love?'" One of your colleagues teased.

A blush crept up to your cheeks. "Just ignore that guy. He's a friend I'm temporarily housing." You sighed, wishing you could sink through the floor.

"A friend with benefits? He sure doesn't seem shy about it..." Another quipped, triggering a new wave of laughter.

You rolled your eyes, preparing for another day of dealing with Toji's aftermath. He was insufferable at times, and you swore you would find a way to repay him for the embarrassment. But how, you weren't sure yet. All you knew was that you wanted revenge.
