Captivated (Ten And Eleven)

Ten

Jun’s responsibility as Toma’s bodyguard is revoked.

Aiba is stubbornly silent and infuriatingly non-apologetic over his hand in the sudden suspicion concerning Jun’s reliability. The latter has taken to avoiding Aiba and sulking, extremely annoyed at the fact that Toma’s taken to playful closeness to Ryo just as easily clinging to his back as he coaxed him to take him out to a café.

Ryo, a person with lesser self control and inhibitions than Jun, agrees. And Jun is alarmed, about to protest; its night he can’t be serious!

But Aiba as persistent and annoyingly observant as ever grips his hand tightly, “His life really isn’t in all that much danger is it?”

And Jun shakes his head slowly, still ready to protest that precautions have never hurt anybody.

“Nothing bad will happen.” Aiba cajoles.

And Jun nods his head, partly convinced.

Eleven

“Ryo~~” Toma whines, “I want a strawberry vanilla swirl smoothie!”

Ryo looks at him like he’s grown a second head

“Its sold there!” Toma points to a small smoothie shop packed with people.

“What can I do?” He asks, doesn’t understand why Toma finds it necessary to tell him all this. Toma’s supposed to lead the way and he’s supposed to follow.
“I don’t want to stand in that line!” Toma admits shuddering.

Ryo is annoyed when realization dawns on him, “Oi! I’m not doing you’re dirty work for you!”

Toma pouts, “You’ll have to stand in line if I stand anyway. So why don’t just stand and I’ll be here, looking at shops to eat dinner. It saves time~~” Toma wheedled with a finger teasing Ryo’s collar.

No guesses who won.

Ryo looks about, it’s dark after all but he’s convinced no one really wants to kill Toma, “Fine but if I turn back and don’t find you here you can forget your smoothie and dinner.”

“So mean!” Toma sticks his tongue out but Ryo has already jogged off. Toma does as he’s told, not really in the mood for adventures anyway. He rocks himself on the balls of his feet as he waits.

Getting bored he decides to look at the menu displayed outside the diner nearby and flip through it idly when three very large men emerges out of nowhere (actually they emerged out of the dark depths of the alley beside the diner)

One of them grabs Toma while the other holds his jaw between his thumb and forefinger.

“Oy! Let go!” Toma struggles pulling at his trapped wrists in vain.

“But you’re so pretty.” The one holding him counters, “It’ll be such a shame to.”

He’s pulled even closer and Toma screams, trying to knee the burly man in the groin but he’s tall and it only connects with his thigh.

The other two laugh, “Aw, so cute. Reminds me of a dog.” And he reaches out to ruffle his hair, Toma jerks his head violently. He does look like a rabid dog.

Suddenly there is a crack sound and the tight hold around Toma loosens. Toma springs out in time as his captor slithers to the ground unconscious. He turns just in time to see the cause of the second crack and cheers on the third.

Ohno Satoshi lets the large stick fall to the floor before approaching him, “You alright?”

“Yeah! Thanks to you.” Ohno blushes and tugs at his cap as a salute, “Don’t mention it.”

“What are you doing here?” Toma asks surprised and so glad that Ohno made it in time.

“I work at the diner; I came outside to throw the trash.” And Toma just notices that his attire looks very much like a mundane work place uniform, blotched with speckles of gravy and sauce.

“Toma!” Ryo runs up to them and notices the men on the floor, “Oh my God! You! I told you not to wander off!” He becomes frantic, eyes widening at their size.

“It’s okay Ryo-chan. Satoshi-kun saved me.” He reassures and Satoshi nods his confirmation.

“Thank you Satoshi-kun!” Ryo bows deeply to convey his gratitude before turning to Toma menacingly, “No dinner!”

“Aww~~It was just an accident. Could happen to anybody! Pleaaaseee~~~”

“NO!” Ryo is unconvinced, still wary from the scare he got earlier.

“Not even if it’s on the house?” Ohno comes to Toma’s rescue the second time that day.

Ryo looks dumbfounded for a second before reluctantly following the two inside the restaurant.
