In My Mind (Hisoka X OC X Illumi)

Chapter 13: A Deal

It was the night of the auction, Reika was forced to stay in her room for the whole event. Reika didn't understand why she listened to Hisoka like he was her parent. She supposed it was from all the years of being with him. She watched on the news as the Phantom Troupe got away with all of the goods from the auction.

'Psh, I could've stopped that from happening.' Reika rolled her eyes and shut off the T.V.

It was fairly late and Reika was still healing from her last fight, so she decided to take a shower and go to bed. Hisoka wasn't coming back until late so she would have to fall asleep on her own again. She didn't need Hisoka to sleep, but she realized that she fell asleep faster with Hisoka in the bed.

The next morning Hisoka was in bed sleeping close to Reika. He kept his hands to himself but was sleeping on her side of the bed. Reika slipped out of bed quietly and tiptoed to the bathroom to brush her teeth and change. Once she was finished, she walked out of the bathroom and saw him sitting up.

"Did I wake you?" She asked as she took a seat at the table.

"No, I woke up on my own." Hisoka said as he ran his hands through his hair that was down to his shoulders.

Reika picked up the hotel menu and read through the various breakfast options. She settled on the same thing she had been getting the last few days here. She ordered Hisoka the same thing knowing he wouldn't care what was brought to him. Once the food got to their room, they both sat at the table and ate. Reika eyed Hisoka's hair, she much preferred it down like this, but he always insisted on having it up.

Reika was going to comment on his hair, but her phone suddenly rang. It was a number she recognized so she answered it.

"Mr. Yhirs what do I owe this pleasure?" Reika sat up straighter as she assumed her role as bodyguard. Hisoka's eyes perked up at the sudden change in Reika's voice.

"Yes, I can do that. Wire me the money, I will see you two at eight then. Yes, goodbye sir." Reika put her phone away and resumed eating.

"What was that?" Hisoka asked out of curiosity.

"I got a job. Someone I once worked for needs me to escort them to the auction tonight." Reika was hoping for a call from someone so she could deal with the Phantom Troupe, this was just the call she was waiting for.

"You'll disobey me and meet the Troupe?" Hisoka could see through the small smile Reika was wearing.

"You know me so well." Her lips curved up as she continued to eat.

"Just don't get caught." Hisoka warned through daring eyes.

"I won't. I'm not that easy to catch." Reika assured him through her bites of food.

That evening Reika put on a suit and tie as she tied her hair up into a high pony. She opted for black flats rather than heels, if the Phantom Troupe was going to get in her way, she didn't want heels to stop her.

Hisoka mused at her when she walked out of the bathroom in her new attire. The look she wore on her face plus her outfit made her seem five years older than what she was. Hisoka enjoyed watching Reika put on different "faces" for clients.

"Stop staring, I'll be gone all night, I assume you will be too." Reika said as she adjusted her tie in the mirror.

"What a mind reader~" Hisoka answered as he watched Reika fumble with her tie.

Hisoka stood up from the chair he was sitting on and walked behind Reika. He wrapped his arms around her and took her hands away from the silk. Reika could see him smirk in the mirror as he fixed the tie for her, his body too close to hers.
