Work Text:
It was late evening, Haru and Rin were invited to an office party by Momiji, he wanted to introduce them to his new girlfriend.
Rin was wearing a tight black dress that was above her knees, it had no back and had was strapless. Haru loved it, he had a wonderful view of what he’d like to call her ‘luscious round cupcake’
Haru had to wear a suit of course, but Haru didn’t like suits so he ditched the tie and did his usual thing by leaving the buttons open to reveal some of his chest and he wore a small chain necklace.
The evening was quite eventful, Momiji’s girlfriend was friendly and sweet, Rin and her had hit it off. Then when Haru was dragged off into a conversation with Momiji and his dad, Rin was off with Momiji’s girlfriend.
After a while Haru decided to check on Rin and to his surprise; he found her laughing with an attractive fellow. He was tall, he had silky black hair and he was in a much fancier suit than Haru, he was also drinking. Haru and Rin had a few drinks during the evening, why wouldn’t they? It was a nice evening and the liquor was free.
Haru didn’t like how close this guy was to Rin, she was laughing hard and the fella was laughing as well, he then almost tripped and spilled his champagne on Rin.
“I’m so sorry, I almost ruined your dress.” he apologized.
“No worries, I’ve got like a million black dresses.” Rin said.
Haru didn’t like this, not in the slightest. This man- For some reason, made Haru insecure. He looked accomplished and decent, Haru wasn’t like that.
“So, you like black, you always prepared for a funeral or something?” the fella joked causing Rin to snicker.
“No, I just quite like the colour.” Rin answered.
“They’re kind of like your eyes, dark, which are beautiful by the way.” he said sincerely, he reached up a hand and touched her cheek lightly.
Now Haru was pissed, how dare he comment on her eyes, as if he actually looked in them properly like Haru did, this bastard barely knew her, he seemed to be a charmer though, Haru wasn’t like that and before any more self-loathing thoughts entered Haru’s mind, something else happened.
Rin let out a nervous laugh “Uhm thanks,” she said, she pushed his hand away “My fiancé says the same.” she said trying to give him a hint to stop before he got any ideas.
“Oh, I bet he does,” the fella flirted, he put his other hand to her waist and stepped closer “Why don’t we show those gorgeous eyes something pretty.” he said huskily looking in her eyes.
“Okay, stop, I’m not interested.” Rin said more serious this time.
“Are you sure.” he said in her ear.
“I said stop-“ Rin started when Haru’s fist collided with the man’s face, he had gone dark now.
“When a woman says stop; you take the hint and BACK OFF!” Haru interjected sternly.
The man had gone off balance after Haru’s punch, he fell into the table full of cocktail foods that was right beside him and Rin.
“Who the fuck are you?” the fella asked in a pissed off tone.
“I’m her fucking fiancé, THAT’S WHO!” Haru bellowed, the fella stood up, he had a small nose bleed, but he looked angry.
“And somehow that gives you the right to punch me in the face, asshole?!”
“No, I just thought you needed a bigger hint to respect a lady's wishes”
“It’s not my fault she-“ the man stopped when Haru kicked him in the torso.
“Don’t you dare finish that sentence.” Haru warned. No one, no one would ever dare to call Rin a slut, not on Haru’s watch.
“Fine, but I shouldn’t be surprised a thug like you is the one she settled for, you look like you came out of prison.” the man commented as he made a punch back to Haru’s face.
“Yeah, and you look nothing more than a plastic barbie.” Haru fired back after swiftly dodging a kick from the plastic barbie.
“ASSHOLE!”
“MAN WHORE!”
They were both yelling now and everyone’s eyes were on them, the fight was getting rougher.
“Haru stop people are watching.” Rin interrupted by grabbing into his shoulders to pull him back.
“I don’t care, he deserves it.” Haru argued.
“Enough! We’re leaving.” Rin said sternly, she grabbed Haru’s hand and laced it with hers as she dragged him outside. Rin forcefully pushed him out the door to the cool air, Haru still felt dark he was so pissed at that asshole.
“What the actual fuck were you thinking?! Getting into a fight like that!” Rin gave out.
“Oh come on, he fucking deserved it.” Haru said rudely to her.
“Don’t use his actions to justify your own, you threw the first punch!”
“AND I'LL DO IT AGAIN, HE MADE A MOVE ON YOU, WHAT DID YOU EXPECT!”
“I EXPECT YOU TO NOT BE SO STUPID!”
“WHATEVER, I DON’T CARE IF IT WAS STUPID, I DID IT FOR YOU!”
“WELL, I HAD IT HANDLED!”
“Well still, I don’t like when other men decide they can touch you when you said stop.”
“I can handle myself, what I can’t handle is you getting so fucking stupid and making a scene.”
Haru didn’t respond, he was so pissed and Rin exhaled and her way to get a taxi “Let’s just go home.” she muttered quietly.
The car journey was quiet, Rin paid the taxi driver when they arrived back at the house. Rin went off to the bathroom to take off her make up, leaving Haru alone in the bedroom.
He thought maybe Rin might kick him out and have him sleep on the couch for the night’s events, she was still very mad with him.
‘Still, I stand by what I said, he deserved it.’ Haru thought.
Rin returned to the bedroom a few minutes later, she sighed and changed into bed clothes. Haru was too dark to say anything, he expected Rin to break the silence by now, but she said nothing and just laid back on the bed.
Haru felt like shit now, she was being quiet, which was worse than yelling. He felt bad for ruining their night with his stupidity and reckless dark side, Rin shouldn’t have to put up with this; she deserved better.
Haru decided he should go; she probably hated the sight of him right now. He stood up and got changed out of his suit into night wear and headed to the door.
“Where are you going?” Rin finally spoke, breaking the painful silence.
“I figured I deserve to sleep downstairs for tonight’s events.” Haru muttered.
“Why?” Rin questioned; she sounded a bit upset now which surprised Haru.
“Because I was a big stupid reckless idiot.”
“You’re not stupid.” Rin argued, she sounded genuinely upset.
“I am sorry I ruined our night, but that fucker deserved it. No one should but their hands on you without your consent.” Haru said sternly.
“I know, but you can’t get into fights like that, you could end up in jail.”
“Well, if it means you’ll be fine and not harassed I’ll do it.”
“NO THAT’S THE PROBLEM, I WON’T BE FINE, IF YOU’RE IN JAIL AND YOU WILL END UP IN FUCKING JAIL IF YOU KEEP THAT UP!” Rin shouted, she stood up to make her point valid. Haru saw tears rising in her eyes.
“I’m sorry, I just- I just can't let that sort of thing happen.” Haru admitted, he was terrified that he hadn’t interjected, she would get hurt again.
“I can’t have you doing that crap, not if it means I could lose you to jail.” Rin whimpered, Haru went over and embraced her tightly.
“You won’t lose me, I was jealous, before he did that, I was jealous that some accomplished looking bastard was gonna woe you away or something.” Haru admitted sheepishly.
“You will never lose me. That’s why we’re engaged remember.” Rin told him, kissing his neck lightly.
“I love you,” he said before capturing her lips in a kiss.
“I love you, too.” Rin mumbled pulling away to drag him back to bed.
After a lustful while of passionate love making, Haru lay in bed with Rin his arms, he felt so grateful for her, the ring she accepted a few weeks prior was on her finger and it made Haru grin widely, it was a reminder he wouldn’t lose her again. Rin slept peacefully on his chest and Haru kissed her forehead before drifting off contently.
