Something in Return {ෆ}

A quick story I needed to get off my brain dhsjajd

Pairing: Rui Kamishiro x Nene Kusanagi (Implied Emukasa)

Just a story I wanted to write for fun.

TWs: None

Genre: Fluff

Another successful show for Wonderlands×Showtime! Emu sweeps the floor, except she misses the dustpan entirely. Tsukasa sighs as he watches the girl make an even bigger mess than before they started. “Seriously Emu, you make such a mess sometimes.” He still couldn’t help but smile watching her. Rui and Nene were putting back the props and sets from the earlier show.

Rui is wearing his usual smirk, carrying all the lighter objects while Nene on the other hand, is dealing with the heavier ones. “Need help carrying those, Nene?” He asked, lightly chuckling at her struggle. She heard him and pouted slightly. “No, it’s.. alright.” Her voice was slightly strained. Why’d they use such heavy materials for their performance today? She regrets declining his help. She was practically hauling it over.

Nene sighs gives in and stops in her tracks. Rui turns around and faces her. He tilted his head, still smirking. “Actually.. I take it back… I could use some help..” Her arms felt like they could give out at any moment, they were like jelly right about now. Rui had other ideas. He felt the need to tease his crush his best friend after all. “Oh I don’t know anymore, Nene. I feel hurt.” He dramatically put his hand over his eyes, pretending to be sad and offended. Nene was not impressed.

“Rui.. can you just help..?” Nene sighed, barely hanging onto the props box. Rui chuckled before setting down the lighter props, and taking the heavier ones from Nene’s hands. “I’ll take them.. for something in return.” He glanced at Nene, seductively staring at her like an idiot. They set the props down into its corner. Nene wiped her brow and rolled down her sleeves. “Thanks Rui.. hm?”

She felt a large shadow cast over her. Rui was standing in front of her, waiting for something. What was he waiting for? Why is he looking at her like that? “I took the props. Now for the thing I want in return..” Rui pretended to think about what he wanted. He knew exactly what he wanted. Nene tapped her shoulder impatiently.

How come he can’t he just tell me what he wants right now.. the girls thoughts grew louder and louder before finally reaching her patience. “What is it, Rui?” Her tone was firm and cold.

Ah the sound of his name coming out of her mouth. That was something Rui truly loved to hear. No matter how it’s spoken, he’ll always love the way she says it. Finally snapping out of his thoughts and actually listening to her words, his lips curled up from a smirk into a smile.

“The thing I want..” He pulled off one of his gloves and reached out for her hand. He held it gently, his touch was soft and comforting. “I just want to hold your hand again..” His face was filled with quite the amounts of blush, but he didn’t really mind. Nene on the other hand, was short circuiting.

Have they held hands before? They have. But it was different back then. They were young and naive. Holding hands with the opposite sex didn’t mean anything back then. Is her heart still pitter pattering? Yeah.

She held her chest, making sure her heart won’t jump out. She felt like having a heart attack too. Let’s just say her heart wasn’t doing her justice. She felt like exploding.

“I— that’s not— you—“ She was buffering. Rui chuckles and takes her hand up to his lips. He gives a slight kiss on the top of her hand. He winks and let’s go. Now that did it. She wanted to faint. She really did. “YOU— YOU— I—..”

He felt amused watching her reactions. He begins to walk away from the area, gesturing for Nene to catch up. “Cmon, Nene.. we still have props to put away.” She snapped out of it, and started to run after him. She doesn’t want to get trailed behind.

Good thing I didn’t kiss her.. or else she would’ve died! Rui chuckles at his own thoughts, Nene didn’t question it. She hid her face away from him, embarrassed by her reactions. He looks at her, his gaze was soft and reassuring rather than his usual cheekiness.

“If you need my help, let me know.” Rui spoke, his tone soft and gentle.

“It’d just require something in return.”
