“You’re kidding, Shiba-san was defeated!?” “I ain’t kidding man! They said this frail and sexy looking chick came out of nowhere and challenged the boss for his position!”

“Idiot, it was a guy!” “Seriously!?”

A short blonde person quickly passed right by them while covering his ears, embarrassed.

‘Uwahh!! Why did the rumors spread so quickly!? I only challenged Taiju-san because he was hurting Yuzuha-chan!!’

…

The news of the new boss reached Toman’s ears quickly. 

“Black Dragon’s have their 11th leader now.” Draken said, eating another spoonful of fried rice.

“And?” Mikey looked up from his parfait.

“...Nevermind, ‘ts not our problem.” 

‘Taiju got defeated by someone in one shot, they say. Bet the new leader's tall and bulky.'  Draken assumed.

...

"I-I didn't grow a single centimeter..." Takemichi sulked in his 152 cm body. "Don't worry, Takemichi-san. You're a very cute short male." Inui comforted. 'AHH! He called me cute!!'

Coffee slowly spilled out of Kokonoi's mouth, who was disgusted at the lovey and flowery scene in front of him. 'Akane-san, are you seeing this bullshi-'

...

Skipping through the city, Takemichi noticed his shoes were untied. 'Oh, better tie them quickly!' Playing the kid bunny song for tying shoelaces, a bullet whizzed right where Takemichi's head was just at.

The sniper clicked his tongue, preparing his second shot.

"Excuse me, sir." A strong hand grabbed his shoulder, making the sniper aim his rifle at the culprit.

Except, it wasn't just one. It was 50+ other men, wearing white headband that had some kanjis on it. "You're...trying to shoot Takemichi, and we can't have that~." Citizens looked up at the building where they heard cries of agony, including Takemichi. 'Eh!? Who's making such horrible sounds!? I hope they're alright...!'

The leader of Takemichi's official fanclub finished breaking the third limb of the sniper. 'Another day that Takemichi is protected by us~!!' "Kisaki-san, another person's trying to hit on Hanagaki-san!!" "Oh hell no-"

...

"I'm fine, Takemichi-kun, I really am." Yuzuha reassured, the white eyepatch covering her bruise not helping. "No, you're not! I'm tired of seeing you like this because of your stupid brother-that's it! I'm gonna punish him!"

Taiju's high school was a good distance from Takemichi's middle school but that didn't stop him from rushing there after school. He was done with seeing his best friend, Yuzuha Shiba, arrive to school with bruises on her face occasionally.

"TAIJUUUUU-" He battled cried, a worried Yuzuha following after him.

What a lovely weather. It helped Taiju relax on his way out of school. Inui and Kokonoi followed him and all froze when someone shouted Taiju's name. "What the-" 

Takemichi skidded to an instant stop just before he crashed into the trio, not tired even after running two miles. Can't say the say for Yuzuha, who had a hand on the school wall to catch her breath.

"S-sorry, but do you know anyone named "Taiju Shiba"!?" Takemichi asked. "It's me, the hell you want shorty?" Taiju glared down on the short male, who squeaked like a mouse. "I-it's you!?" 'So tall and big!!'

Takemichi regained his composure and readied his stance, his eyes narrowing. “I’m gonna make you pay for ruining Yuzuha-chan’s adorable face almost everyday!!”

"Oh? Oh~!! A weak little rat wants to go up against me? Hahahaa!!" Taiju slapped a hand on his forehead and threw his head back, laughing.

"How stupid, you'll just end up as a dead pebble after this fight." Inui sighed. "That's why you shouldn't stick your nose where it doesn't belong, blondie." Kokonoi stuck his tongue out.

Yuzuha was about to step in when Takemichi held an arm to stop her. "Yuzuha-chan, it's alright. You don't need to keep fighting anymore." "...Takemichi-kun..."

Taiju didn't wait and threw the first punch, only for it to hit the air. Takemichi clenched his fist, right behind his opponent. 

"Wha-" "So fast!"

Takemichi sweep Taiju's feet from underneath and just before the blue-streaked man hits the ground, a fist full of anger made contact with his face. He tumbled and rolled a few feet from them, back hitting a nearby wall.

"He landed a hit!?" "Boss, get up!"

But Taiju didn't. He was unconscious. 

Takemichi literally knocked him out with one punch. "Amazing..." Yuzuha's breath was stolen. 

No one could say a word, all too stunned to speak.

*Growl*

"..." "Ah, that was my stomach, how embarrassing!!!" Takemichi squatted down, his tomato face buried in his hands.

...

"Did you minions catch that? Takemichi's beautiful victory and adorable stomach growl!?" Kisaki whispered, who had witnessed the whole scene hidden with his members. "Yes, sir!" "Quiet!"

...

"I want to apologize, but you abused Yuzuha-chan so no!" Takemichi pouted, treating Taiju's swelling bruise with delicacy and care. "Tch, shut up already, bastard." Takemichi gasped. "Bastard!? How dare you!"

Inui and Kokonoi watched the two bicker, all of them currently at the nurse's office. Yuzuha was also there, unsure if she was really free from the beating. While Kokonoi was contemplating on what to do from now on, Inui was resisting the urge to squish Takemichi's mochi-like cheeks. They looked so soft.

"...Wahhh!!! Stupid bully...~!!" Takemichi sobbed, running out of the room. "Taiju, you bitch!" Yuzuha cursed and pointed a quick middle finger at her brother, chasing after Takemichi.

"Eh!?" Taiju sat up, not expecting Takemichi to run off after being called petty insults.

After several death threats, Taiju reluctantly gave Takemichi some chocolates as an apology(and to save himself from getting assassinated). The blonde happily accepted and smiled brightly, sending Taiju to his knees as he was hit with an arrow of cuteness.

"Good morning, Kisaki-san~!" Takemichi greeted his kouhai with a bright smile, blinding everyone in that hallway for a second. Kisaki immediately bowed 90 degrees. "Good morning to you too, Takemichi-san. It's great to see you in great health as always."

Takemichi held his blushing face in total awe and worry. "Eh!? I told you the "-san" wasn't necessary!! But thank you for such a kind greeting as always!" Kisaki nearly fainted on the spot for the soft hand patting his head.

"Have a nice day in class, bye-bye!"

Kisaki held the top of his head with a red face, his head filled with erotic thoughts of Takemichi.

'Kisaki-san's is such a nice person~.' Takemichi thought.

"Good morning, Kisaki-san." A random classmate greeted Kisaki. "Fuck off, trash."

...

The Black Dragons were rich, and back when Taiju was boss, 40% of the money was spent on uniforms, and the rest lay in Kokonoi's hands, ready to be used anytime. Ever since Takemichi became boss because of Inui's constant begging and killer looks, that money was being used to spoil him.

"H-he's here!" "Do not fear, men! We will win today!!!" 

Takemichi entered the restaurant he frequently visited with Inui and sat down in his unofficial, official, seat, scanning through the "challenge" part of the menu. "Wow~!! Excuse me, waiter-san, can I please try the new 20-pound ramen challenge!?" "O-of course!"

The chefs and regular customers realized Takemichi was back and cheered for him when the giant bowl of ramen was placed in front of him. "T-ten minutes... Begin!!" Takemichi happily ate the noodles, Inui watching in pure amazement.

With seven minutes passed, Takemichi finished the broth and set the empty bowl down, still hungry. The manager cried as he has lost again. "...Excuse me, I like to try the challenge again..." Takemichi quietly whispered out.

"EHH!?"

...

"Inupi-san, let's go shopping today at Beika mall!!" Takemichi dragged the sunflower blonde towards the big gray building. "Please, just call me "Inupi". Also, of course." 'KYAAA~!! Inupi-san's always so nice, and he has good looks!! Wonder if he sees me as cute though...'

Takemichi, you're the exact definition of cute in this story-

...

"Ken-chin, let's go to Beika mall today. I want to go buy some new sandals since my current pair are starting to break."

"Okay, wanna invite the others too?"

"Sure, why not?"

Chapter Text

"Neh neh, Inupi-kun! Does this look cute on me!?" Takemichi held a t-shirt with sunflower patterns all over close to his chest. "Yes, everything looks amazing-no, spectacular on you." Inui smiled. "Hey, you've been saying that for all of the clothes I've tried, don't lie!!" "I'm not, it's the truth." "...Well if you say so..." Takemichi blushed.

Kisaki angrily gripped his table, giving the worst death glares towards Inui, wishing for him to just drop dead onto the floor. 'Fucking scar-boy, HOW DARE YOU GO ON A DATE WITH THE BEAUTIFUL GOD!?!?'

The shop Takemichi and Inui were in was pretty big and popular, Kisaki was stalking them through hacked security cameras, and Toman? They were on the first floor while Takemichi and Inui were on the second.

"Mikey, you've been staring at those two pairs since forever, please just choose one already..." Draken seethed out, annoyed. "...I can't! One has darker straps but the other had gold! It's impossible!" Mikey put on a thinking pose, examining the two pairs of sandals very closely.

"Tch...hey Baji, where's Mitsuya? He's been gone for a while." Draken turned his head around, facing Baji. "You're right, wait! What if he's encountered some rival gang!? We need to help him in case they play dirty!" He yelled, running to the escalator for the second floor. "You just want an excuse to fight!"

Draken followed, leaving Pah-chin, Peh-yah, and Kazutora with Mikey. "...He did not just leave with this man child!" Kazutora gasped. "Who's the man child!?" Mikey screeched.

Mitsuya did encounter a rival gang...but there wasn't a fight. He was currently observing the perfect candidate to be his model. The person had the body and a cute face that he dare say he's fallen for it. Problem was that Inui Seishu was accompanying the beautiful blonde and he has an unknown grudge against him for some reason.(*cough* *cough* Inupi went swing swing mother fucker with a pipe on Mitsuya-*cough* *cough*)

Yeah, he was acting like pervert right now, but he couldn't help it! He felt so allured to that sexy body, he could just taste his own shame on his tongue.

’It’s perfect, straight back, curvy hips, perfect proportions, a sweet voice-wait no, I’m just here to check out the blonde guy’s body, that’s it, don’t get side-tracked!!’

But that was hard to do when Takemichi wrapped his jacket around his waist and rolled up his sleeves due to the warm room temperature.

’SHITT-how can a guy be so hot!? Am I gay!?’

Takemichi looked around with an uneasy face. “Is something wrong, Takemichi-san?” Inui tiled his head. “No…just felt like someone was watching me…” That set off Inui’s murderer mode.

’Time to find whoever was bold enough to stalk Takemichi-san while I’m around-‘

“MITSUYA, where’s the bad guy!?” Baji charged in, scaring the living crap out of Mitsuya. “JESUS-Baji, shut it!!”

He spotted Draken behind and sighed. “Alright, sorry I got side tracked for a bit, let’s go back to Mikey.”

But Baji didn’t answer and was just standing very still, confusing the twin dragons. “Baji? Hello~? Fang-boy!!”

Mitsuya and Draken followed the boy’s stare, one face palming and the other who was still confused.

‘Please don’t tell me Baji fell for him-‘

“HEY SEXY BLONDE GUY, YOU’RE HOTT!!!” Baji yelled, frightening poor Takemichi and alerting guard dog Inui.

And now, Mitsuya wants to crawl into a hole and die.

”Mitsuya, Ken-chin, Baji, I got my sandals~!”

Remove the “crawl into a hole and” part and that’s what Mitsuya’s feeling.

’…Is this what Mana felt when she didn’t want to share her dolls with Luna?’

”Mitsuya, Ken-chin, Baji, I got my sandals~!”

Immediately recognizing the six men as the Toman founders, Inui ushered Takemichi behind him, ready to pull the switchblade out of his pocket any second.

”Wow, so when I leave, you can actually make a decision?” Draken asked with a sour expression. “…Hm, I guess so.” Mikey obliviously answered. “You little shi-“

”Inupi-kun, do you know them?” Takemichi titled his adorable head, slightly blushing. ‘They look really handsome, especially the lavender and brown-eyed ones! His lavender hair looks familiar too.’

”Takemichi, we should leave. They’re Toman, our enemies.” Inui glared at them. He knows he’s no match for all of them combined and he can’t risk Takemichi getting harmed because of his mistakes.

The ones that were captivated from Takemichi’s irresistible charms were Mikey, Baji, Mitsuya, and Kazutora. 

“Ken-chin, who are they?”

“Seishu Inui, attack captain of the 11th generation. And the other one, I’m unsure.”

”Hm~, he looks pretty.”

Takemichi slapped his hands on his flushed cheeks, quickly breaking eye-contact with a smirking Mikey.

”Fuck off, scumbags, My leader is not someone I’ll let your disgusting eyes ogle.” Inui growled.

‘That guy’s the leader!? He’s…even shorter than Mikey!’ Draken opened his mouth to say something but said nothing.

”Hah!? You wanna fight, Inui!?” Baji clashed his fists together, catching Takemichi’s worried attention.

‘Eh!? They’re gonna fight!? But why, we didn’t do anything!? I don’t like using violence…’

”Takemichi-san, please get ready to run. I can’t bear to see you get hurt.” If it weren’t for the tense situation, Takemichi would’ve been fanboying but right now, he shook his head.

”Inupi-kun, as you leader, I can’t just leave you here.” He got into his karate stance, shocking Toman that he was a fighter. “Even if their really hot, I won’t forgive them if they hurt you.”

Usually, when someone wants to fight the Toman founders, they’d get excited and fight back without mercy, but the ones that were crushing on Takemichi just thought the blonde was being sexy as fuck.

”Holy shit, I’d let him choke me with his thighs.” Mitsuya muttered.

”Man, screw just thighs. I hope he  makes me call him master.” Baji said.

”…Degrade me, please.” Mikey bluntly said.

”Kill me please-“

Inui covered Takemichi’s ears. “You fucking bastards, are you trying to dirty Takemichi-san’s pure ears with your vulgar language!?”

An arrow of guilt stabbed the four boys heart.

”MOMMY, I’M SORRY!!”(he's saying it to Takemichi) Baji went down on his knees, slamming his forehead against the floor. But Takemichi didn't hear that thankfully.

”You’re right, I apologize.” Mitsuya nodded.

”Takemichi? …Takemitchy!” Mikey bopped his fist over the palm of his hand, happy with the new nickname.

”…Stab me please-“

”Takemichi-kun, what are you and Inupi-kun doing here?”

A girl with peach hair walked up to Takemichi, earning a tight hug from the blonde boy. “HINA-CHAN, EVERYONE’S ACTING SCARY~!!” He sobbed.

`…Lucky.’ The gay people thought.

A girl with peach hair walked up to Takemichi, earning a tight hug from the blonde boy. “HINA-CHAN, EVERYONE’S ACTING SCARY~!!” He sobbed.

`…Lucky.’ The gay people thought.

Hinata's mother instincts instantly set in and hugged the poor boy back, glaring at the lonely Inui for answers. "...It was their fault for scaring Takemichi." He pushed the blame to Toman, not wanting the wrath of a very protective best friend,

"MOMMY, FORGIVE ME!!" Baji sobbed, gaining weird looks from spectating. "M-mommy!?" Hinata's face twisted into disgust, searching Inui's face for answers. "Wahhhh!! They were about to fight and I don't want that!! What should I do, Hina-chan!?!?" Takemichi sniffled, his head being petted by Hinata.

"...I think I have a kink for his tears." Mikey blushed. "Oh my god, same~." Baji stopped crying, sharing the same dumb-looking expression as his friend.

"Hina-chan, there-UWAH, DRAKEN-KUN, MIKEY!?"

Emma stood agape, very confused about what was going on. "Emma!?" Draken flinched. "Oh, Emma-chan! Sorry, I saw Takemichi-kun and checked to see what was going on." Hinata apologized. "You know them?" She asked, pointing to the horny-Toman founders. 

Emma nodded her head. "Yep, the short one is my big brother-" "Hey!" "And Draken-kun..." Pink tinted her cheeks as she fidgeted with her fingers. "He's...my boyfriend..."

"...WHAT!?" "Oh my god, she's so cute!" Takemichi gushed.

Mikey snapped his head towards Draken, pissed. "Why wasn't I informed of this?" "I-it was a secret relationship! Emma, tell Mikey-" "Eh? But you said to keep it from Mikey so he wouldn't murder-...oh...oopsies~." She playfully bonked her head, sticking her tongue out.

"Ryuguji Ken." "Oh, shit-he used Draken's full name!"

Seeing this as a golden opportunity, Inui snatched Takemichi and Hinata's wrists before running off with them, eloping into the sunset-

"HE'S RUNNING OFF WITH MY GODDESS-OH HELL NO!!" Baji chased after them, mainly to talk to Takemichi just once. "I'm gonna go after Baji to make sure he doesn't die." Mitsuya calmly said, lying right through his teeth. He really just wanted to get Takemichi's number. "I wanna get stabbed by him." Kazutora shot a thumbs up to Draken before leaving him with the feral Mikey.

"Now then, how do you want to die?" "EMMA, HEL-"

...

Trying to catch their breaths, Inui, Hinata, and Takemichi were at a nearby park. Well, Takemichi wasn't tired since he's very athletic U-U+. "S-sorry this day turned...chaotic, Takemichi-san." Inui said in a low tone, sad. "Why'd you grab me too!?" Hinata wiped the sweat off her face. "...Because Takemichi-san would've tried to grab your hand too and I don't him to touch you." "You little shi-"

"Are you two alright!? I-I got us some peach juice if you guys are thirsty..." Takemichi handed them peach juice in cans, not a single sweat rolling down his face but still flushed. 

'...a saint.' They both thought, graciously accepting the drinks.

"Ano, Inupi-kun..." Takemichi fiddled with the end of his long cat shirt. "Hm?" "I...had a lot of fun today...do you want to go out again sometimes...?"

Inui looked as if he's been given a hundred free wishes from a genie, a frown on his face as usual but his face somehow glowing from happiness. "Y-yes! I would love to!" He stuttered out, a snicker coming out of Hinata's mouth.

And then they were both blessed with a bright smile, blinding them for the rest of their life-

...

Mitsuya, Baji, and Kazutora got lost and ended up back at the mall.

"...I told you to not trust Baji with directions," Kazutora said. "Lesson learned." Mitsuya agreed, both staring at the black-haired man stuck and digging through the trashcan.

"I CAN SMELL HIM IN HERE, I KNOW IT!!"

Chapter Text

Something was itching the back of Inui's brain, and he can't recall what his mind was trying to tell him. 'If it's not anybody's birthday, then what?'

...

Takemichi was playing with Yuzuha's long hair, placing in lovely fake flowers and accessories. Since Hakkai didn't have long hair, he just painfully watched, wishing for Takemichi's soft hands on his head too.

Maybe it was just because he was deprived of Takemichi head pats.

"How does it look, Yuzuha-chan?" Takemichi showed her reflection from a mirror. "Uwah~! You did so good, Takemichi-kun!" Yuzuha beamed, flustering the blonde.

'Kyaa!! Yuzuha-chan praised me!!!'

*Knock* *Knock* "Takemichi-san, Yuzuha-chan, may I come in?" Inui asked. "Come in, Inupi!"

Inui opened the bedroom door and was greeted with Takemichi's bright smile, happy to see him. "Do you need anything?" "Just wanted to ask if you wanted to go buy ice-cream with me. I heard the new hello kitty popsicles came out in the convenience store a few blocks away."

Takemichi's eyes sparkled at that, eager to see and buy them. "Sure!"

Hakkai pouted in jealousy, earning some teasing looks from his sister. "Oh wait~, Hakkai, if I recall correctly, you said you wanted to buy it too! Why don't we all go together to buy it?" Yuzuha suggested, smugly looking at the annoyed Inui.

'Take that, sucker.'

'You're lucky Takemichi-chan told me to not hit girls.'

"Oh, that's a wonderful idea! Let's go then!" Takemichi obliviously clapped his hands together, happy.

...

Sad to say, but it was a popular item that sold out quickly so currently, Inui and Hakkai offered to go look around the city for any other shops that sold them while Yuzuha and Takemichi played at the park.

"Ah." Yuzuha paused, her white shirt having a small pink stain from her melting strawberry popsicle. Luckily, she spotted a bathroom nearby. "Takemichi-kun, wait here for a second, okay? I need to go wash out this stain." "Okay, I'll wait here!"

Takemichi continued playing with the pretty daisies, turning them into cute flower crowns.

"Oh~, those are cute. Did you make them yourselves?"

Takemichi flinched, taking in the new presence that sat right besides him. He didn't even sense him! "Y-yeah, do you want one?" He asked politely, blushing from the man's long white lashes.

The man merely smiled. "I do, after all, I am a greedy king~, Hanagaki Takemichi." 

"...Eh? How-"

*a whack sound harder than ur parents' weapon of choice for beatdown after seeing ur grades*

...

"Takemichi? Hm? Where'd he go?" Yuzuha glanced around, seeing no signs of her friend. 

But then, she saw some flower crowns that had some stains of red. 

That was when the colors drained from her face.

...

'...Oh! Now I remember. Today is Izana's release day from juvie.' Inui thought.
