Traitor (Renji Yomo x Reader) [Continued in a second book!]

That's What You Get

Never in my life ever had I hurried so much. My shower ended faster than I ever wanted it to. Did I feel cleansed yet? Not really. I knew my body was clean but in order to get rid of all the dirt I felt was still on me, I needed a much longer shower. I still felt dirty, tarnished. But I couldn't let Renji hurt Koutarou - my best friend didn't deserve that. That I cheated was completely my own fault. Any rage should be directed at me and not him.

So with Koutarou potentially getting beat up in mind, I rushed my shower tremendously, didn't even clean my face properly. Fortunately, no one came in. Unfortunately, I forgot all my clothes in our room. So after wrapping my hair into one towel, drying off my body and jumping back into the robe, I ran right back to our room. The door was still open - and Renji was still gone. Without wasting any more time, I jumped in some fresh clothes and tied my hair into a bun on top of my head. The clothes I could find quickest were a long shirt and leggings. Right after I finally left our room and started heading down the hallway, I already heard shouting from afar. It was distant but coming out of the direction Koutarou's room would be at.. And it was definitely a male voice. Feeling my panic rise again, I ran as fast as I could towards Koutarou's place. It was still a few corners away, so if they were already this loud, I certainly had to hurry. If anything were to happen to Kou, I wouldn't know how to deal with it. He meant so much to me. Part of me still hoped that Renji just went to work or, hell, even Itori's place.. But chances were too high he was going for Koutarou's place. He couldn't stand him.. Although we all sort of lived together for a while.. So it wouldn't be surprising that he would want to take his anger out on him.

The closer I came, the louder the voices got.. And my fear was confirmed. Those were clearly Koutarou and Renji yelling at each other. As much as I wanted to focus on what they were talking about, my mind was clouded with too many worries of what either could look like. Both were very powerful. They could easily kill each other.. And that thought was terrifying.

When they were finally coming into my sight after what seemed to have taken years, my body started shaking violently. Furniture from Koutarou's room was all over the place, mostly broken from whatever they did with it. Even some of his clothes were on the floor. It sure looked like Renji was trying to throw him out of his own room. But now they were fighting, using their kagunes and fists.

"Stop!" I screamed from the top of my lungs but no one heard me.

Koutarou attempted to pierce through Renji's body by using his kagune but he was too slow, Renji easily dodged it and instead blasted a kick right against his head. If I would've been closer, I could've probably seen teeth fly.. The way his head snapped to the side, it sure must've hurt. But Koutarou wasn't done yet, he hopped right back up and landed some mad hit in Renji's face. They went back and forth as people watched in horror.

"Fucking stop!" I shouted as loud as I possibly could, almost running out of breath in the process.

Much to my dismay, it seemed a final powerful hit from Renji sent Koutarou flying against a wall. The heavy impact made the ground shake and bricks fall from the ceiling - luckily not on top of him. Out of shock and disbelief, I stopped moving for a moment. My breath got stuck in my throat once again as my heart picked up its pace. This was horrifying.

"No, no , no, no.." I whispered to myself, trying to pick up my pace.
