Eros. (Benimaru Shinmon)

六十九

Note: Lol, I was re-reading this story and noticed how many bad comments I had on it causing me to laugh at the fact that yall continued to read even after bashing it. Honestly, I created this because at the time I couldn't find a good story. But, as I always say, If you don't like the story, I suggest you don't continue reading because 9/10 I am going to disappoint yall. Unlike my most popular story, this is purely created for me and my toxic A$$ mind. Enjoy if you wish to read.

From the stars of the black heavens to the lights of the blacktop streets, the view from the roof was every kind of wonderful and mesmerizing. 

"So this is it?" Benimaru questioned.

"As you could see," Joker replied.

Yet they were bringing me back to the reality of the situation. We were here to collect information. 

"The church is exposed and security is tight," Joker commented.

"It's not really tight, there are very small openings but as you stated back at the seventh, the front gate is the best shot," I commented.

"I take it that your team was able to enter," Joker mentioned as he took a drag of his cigarette. 

"They are," I responded, "I would join them, but you two would draw attention to them, so it is best that we all go together."

"To be honest, I am surprised that you decided to tag along with someone as fishy as me, Captain Benimaru," Joker commented, "Crazy, you're a weird guy you know."

"Eh....I didn't come out here because I trust you," Benimaru mentioned, "It's the opposite, I am going to watch you, and also I did it because Inori held that ultimatum for you and put your lights out In the event that Inori and her team are hurt and/or if you try anything funny."

Joker soon took a step back and put his hands up at Benimaru's threat as I chuckled at his statement. 

"I'm curious, you are on the empire's wanted list, right?" Benimaru asked, "So why storm the Imperial's seat? Aren't you afraid of getting caught?"

"I fight for my brand of justice," Joker stated as he raised his hands and began a long speech of patriotism. 

I simply rolled my eyes. I just wanted to get them moving in. I haven't heard anything from Akira and Ichijiro. 

"Alright, time to pay our respect," Joker said as he turned away and began walking, "Let's climb back down."

"We are climbing back down now! Why did we even come up here?!" Benimaru yelled.

"Isn't it obvious, looking down on things from above is what hero's do," Joker answered.

Soon flames circled around Benimaru's fist. That rage was present in his expression. It is funny how he could be such a hothead sometimes. I sighed as I rose from squatting on my knees and placed my two fingers on Benimaru's forehead to calm him down from his little explosion.

"Think of it as extra surveillance," I mentioned as my eyes stared into his mismatched crimson eyes, "Let's go, the more we argue the more I begin to worry about Akira and Ichijiro."

"Hm...fine," Benimaru said as he tucked his hands looped his arm around yours before tucking his hands in his sleeve and pulling me close, "Just stay near me on the way there."

"Why scared I might run away with Joker," I teased.

"I wouldn't count it out given your fetish for older men," Benimaru said lazily causing me to turn red and Joker to laugh at his comment.

"Maybe I should end things with you and go back to Akitaru since he has been the oldest out of all the men who had my interest," I pouted while turning my head to the side.

"The hell you are!" Benimaru yelled pulling me even closer so that I couldn't even leave even if I wanted to.

"Oii, get off and let me go!" I whined while punching his arm but he was the strongest fire soldier alive...and though we were similar in firepower...he had me beat with strength alone.

"You guys are a very interesting couple," Joker said as he continued towards the temple.

If only he knew the long journey it took for us to even get to this. I glanced up at Benimaru as he continued to walk and follow Joker.

But still, the thought of Akira and Ichijiro not getting back to me really has me perplexed. I know they were able to get into the temple after the call but still to not call me or text me or something...

"We are near, you need to get your matoi..." I responded as I slipped my hand from his arm and walked forward until he grabbed my arm and pulled me back.

"I am really nervous to have you fighting them but I do trust you, just be careful and try not to get hurt too much," Benimaru mumbled.

"I think this is a speech for the enemy and not me," I teased until I tipped toed and pecked his lips for comfort, "Don't worry, I'll be okay."
