Sweet as Honey 「Sakata Gintoki x Reader」

Chapter Six.

"Hey, old hag, serve me another milkshake!" Gintoki calls across the room, earning a dirty look from Otose.

"What was that, you piece of shit?" She hisses, watching (Name) kick Gintoki under the table.

With a groan and a pout, he adds, "Please."

Huffing, Otose mutters, "Well, it's an improvement," as she begins to prepare another cool drink. Back at the table, Gintoki pouts at (Name), his eyebrows furrowed.

"Why'd you kick me!"

"Take a wild guess!"

As they bicker, their argument is interrupted by Sadaharu firmly biting down on Gintoki's head.

"Ow, ow, ow! Kagura! Call him off!" He hisses, earning a victorious laugh from the woman beside him.

"See? Even Sadaharu agrees with me."

The dog finally releases Gintoki when Kagura calls him over. Gintoki rubs his head, clucking his tongue as Otose places the milkshake in front of him.

"Thanks," he mutters just loud enough to be heard. Otose grins.

"Huh. I could get used to this. You'd better keep (Name) around. Maybe that way you'll stop being such a sack of crap to everyone."

(Name) grins teasingly, only to find herself thrown off as the Samurai huffs and throws his arm around her shoulders, pulling her close to him.

"I fully intend to."

(Name)'s mouth drops open in surprise, Otose's eyes widening.

"After all, who else would do the dishes for me?"

He's elbowed in the gut, causing him to splutter and hold his stomach.

"Shut up, Gintoki," (Name) crosses her arms. Otose grins.

"Well, who'd have guessed it? We found the dominant one." (Name) sticks her tongue out at Gintoki, whose mouth drops open in disbelief, his eyebrows furrowed.

"As if! I'd be the dominant one!"

"Excuse me?"

"I'm the man!"

"And?!"

They bicker, hearing Shinpachi and Kagura join in.

"(Name) would be the dominant one."

Holding a hand to his heart dramatically, Gintoki cries, "Absolutely not! I'll have you know my wife would listen to my every word!"

(Name) laughs, "No way."

"Yes way!"

They bicker again, both getting fired up and far too into their own little world.

"As my wife, I expect you to massage me every day and feed me dessert!"

"Nice try, buddy! You're the one who'll be massaging me!"

The other three watch in amusement and confusion.

"Um, sorry, but, aren't you guys, uh, not even dating? Why are you talking about married life...?" Shinpachi asks, genuinely unsure how the topic arose. (Name) points at Gintoki accusingly.

"Now look what you've done! You've confused him! You're tearing this family apart with your nonsense!"

"What? You're tearing us apart!" The two seem to not even hear.

Shinpachi sighs, smacking his forehead on the bar's table as he gives up.
