I don't know what's going on (Bonten x F!reader)

7

Sleep didn't find me easily; I had to turn in bed countless times before I finally drifted off. The next morning, I looked into the mirror and saw that I still looked tired, with light eye bags. I made breakfast for myself and my cat before heading off to work. The weather was cloudy and a bit windy today, but at least it wasn't raining like yesterday.

I stepped into the Bonten headquarters building and headed straight for the elevator, pressing the button for my floor without bothering to greet the secretary. As soon as I entered my office, I was greeted by a mountain of papers waiting on my desk, and I sighed. I tried to push thoughts of Fuyuko out of my mind. After all, I wasn't the one who killed her, it was either Mikey or Sanzu, considering Sanzu usually handles such things.

I shrugged off my coat and made my way to the small kitchen on our floor to grab some coffee. Mochi's assistant was there too, but he didn't mention Fuyuko; he only greeted me casually. He probably didn't care or maybe he was even pleased, given how none of the other assistants ever really got along with Fuyuko.

Returning to my office, I started working. "Same as usual, the same usual," I mumbled to myself. After a while, I noticed a note on my desk that had been hidden beneath the stack of papers.

"Don't forget the meeting we have today to discuss plans for Friday."
- Kakucho

I glanced at the clock on the wall and realized I still had enough time to get everything done.

Time Skip

The meeting wasn't as serious as the previous ones. Kokonoi stood at the end of the table, and nearly everyone was making comments or adding something to whatever he said. Mikey, as usual, remained quiet. I watched them with slightly furrowed brows; I had expected this to be a more serious discussion.

Then, Kokonoi turned to me, and the next words out of his mouth made my stomach drop.

"[Name], you have to act as one of our girlfriends."

The room fell silent, and all eyes were on me, except for Mikey. My expression quickly shifted to one of indifference, masking the furrowed brows I had just a minute ago.

"Act as a what?"

"As a girlfriend." Kokonoi's tone was serious, and for a moment, I couldn't tell if he was joking or not. Was this some kind of prank?

"I'm sorry?" Ran and Rindou snickered at my reaction, while Kakucho watched with interest. Mochu and Takeomi exchanged glances, and Sanzu was smirking.

Kokonoi scoffed. "Don't act like that. Just be a girlfriend to one of us for Friday night. It's not like I'm asking you to sleep with one of us."

I quickly held up a hand in defense. "Wait, no- that wasn't my intention-"

Rindou let out a laugh. "No need to get so flustered, [Name]. You just need to look pretty and sit on my lap."
Kokonoi shot him a look. "Who said she's going to act as your girlfriend?" he emphasized, pointing a finger at Rindou, who looked irked in return.

"Who else if not me?" Rindou retorted.

"Me," Ran, Kakucho, Sanzu, Kokonoi and even Mikey all said in unison, making me snap my head toward each of them. What the hell?

The room was silent until Sanzu broke the tension.

"I'll keep it real with you," Sanzu began, leaning forward towards Rindou, who was seated at the opposite end near Kokonoi. "You really think you can handle all that?" he smirked, pointing at me, his blue eyes scrutinizing Rindou, who looked annoyed.

What is he talking about? My body?

I nearly blushed but managed to keep it together as they continued to bicker.

"Yes, I can, you druggie. Get off those pills," Rindou retorted, crossing his arms over his chest. Ran, who sat across from him, chuckled.

"No, Rindou, you can't," Ran said, causing Rindou to look at his brother in betrayal. "You can't be talking-" Rindou started, but Ran cut him off. "Yes, I can."

Kakucho leaned back in his seat. "It's not about who'd handle her body the best; it's about who it would come off as natural with."

Kokonoi nodded in agreement. "You perverts would only use this as an excuse to touch her," he pointed an accusing finger at each of them.

Sanzu wants to touch me?!

As their bickering continued over who would be the most suitable to "handle" me, and some argued that it wasn't about that, Mikey finally intervened. His voice cut through the chaos with a firm, authoritative tone.

"Enough," Mikey said, pushing his chair back slightly so that everyone could see his legs. I was now positioned in front of him, no longer standing behind him. Before I could react, he pulled me into his lap, and I nearly yelped.

One hand rested on the back of my knee, near my thigh, while the other settled on my waist. My shoulder pressed against him, and my head almost touched his shoulder if I hadn't shifted it.

"I better not see this," he said, his voice carrying a warning. His hand on my waist slid down to my ass, making me flush. I instinctively hid my face in my hands, unable to meet the eyes of the others.

"It'll have consequences," Mikey continued, as if the situation were completely normal. His black eyes scanned the room, taking in the reactions of his executives. Kokonoi looked on in disbelief, Kakucho appeared shocked but had a light blush on his cheeks, Ran looked surprised but began to grin, Rindou gaped in astonishment, Sanzu smirked with amusement, Takeomi seemed disinterested, and Mochi covered his mouth, stifling a reaction.

"Did I make myself clear?" Mikey's voice was quiet but left no room for misunderstanding. Everyone nodded in agreement.

He gestured for me to get up, and I did so quickly. Mikey rolled his chair back to the table and gave Kokonoi a nod, signaling him to continue. Kokonoi, momentarily disoriented by Mikey's sudden intervention, cleared his throat and tried to refocus.

"Well," Kokonoi began, his voice still slightly shaken, "We are going to... find a solution to who you're going to be with, [Name]."

I nodded in acknowledgment, my heart still racing from Mikey's actions.
