Work Text:
It was a busy Friday night for Shoko as Meimei invited the girls for a night out, preparing her best look to express her freedom from a whole week of work in the school clinic she’s working in.
For the event, Shoko wore a seductive strapped bodycon velvet dress where her neckline is also exposed, she felt all breezy that’s why she also prepared a cropped leather jacket to put on later.
All lady’s left to do is her makeup and hair then she can finally leave, be wild at the bar and enjoy their girls-only time.
She’s sitting in front of her vanity desk when a tall raven-head walks into her room. Entering, his face is all smiley but his smile quickly faded and turned into a frown.
“Ya, what are you doing?” Annoyed, he greets her.
Shoko was taken aback by his attitude as someone who’s barging in her own apartment.
“No, what are YOU doing?” she calmly replied.
“I thought we’re gonna have a movie marathon?!” Suguru whines.
“Who said that?”
Shoko knows she’s free tonight and she’s very sure that none of her two idiot best friends scheduled a movie marathon beforehand, so what is this big man is whining about.
“Me! Just now!” he proudly said, which made Shoko gasp internally.
‘This man is unbelievable’ she told herself.
“Well, sorry for your little plan but as you can see I’m leaving tonight, Mister” she shoo-ed him away as she continued applying makeup.
“You can’t leave me alone like this, Shoko” he went to her bed and sat there staring at her all grumpy.
He’s totally Satoru’s friend, they act the same, that’s what Shoko thought of the taller’s present behavior.
“Go play with Satoru instead, Suguru”
“I decline, he’ll be all Utahime again. I’m totally over it”
“Utahime will join us. C’mon Suguru, go to your best friend”
“What I mean is he’ll be talking about her all the time and will tell about how he proposed to her over and over again, AS IF WE’RE NOT THERE AS WELL”
Thinking about his unaware best friend made the raven-head crazy.
“You’re the only one that I want” he whispered enough for Shoko to hear.
She sighed because she understands how up until now their friend is overjoyed for putting a ring to his love that he can’t stop talking about the same story again and again, even her, is getting tired of hearing it.
Shoko stared at Suguru on her bed, sitting his hand on his face making the grumpiest face that he has while staring at nowhere. Nonetheless, she did not pay careful attention to him and proceeded putting on a red lipstick she recently bought.
“Why don’t you find yourself a girl so you won’t pest me while you’re tired of your best friend”
“Don’t wanna”
On the other hand, Suguru diverted his gaze to Shoko and scanned her appearance. Something about seeing her all dressed made him more moody.
“What are you, an old lady? You’re still using hair rollers?” he picked on her.
Yes, he’s beginning to pick on her because he simply doesn't want her to leave.
For their movie marathon?
Certainly, not.
Suguru knows the exact reason but can’t just spell it out himself.
“I don’t want to damage my hair, shut up and just go away”
Her reaction clearly translates that he’s nowhere stopping her from leaving. Shoko is still not paying attention to the dude in her room who’s currently intently staring at her.
So Suguru continues getting on her nerves.
“What are you even dressing up for”
“To get laid”
Ah.
That doesn’t sit right with Suguru, swiftly he felt jealousy spread all over his senses.
Shoko? She still has no idea.
But that’s not until Suguru stood behind her, bent on her level, silently removing all the rollers on her hair.
‘What’s wrong with him?’ she questioned him in her mind.
The brunette let him do as he wanted. It has always been like that. And she may or may not like the way it is. Not really sure.
She can feel his breath on her neck as he is so close while doing that, she also unconsciously stopped doing her make-up and left frozen.
In that moment, while still on his even grumpier frown he stated,
“That’s it!”
“Hey, what are you doing?” she reacts as he carries her to throw themselves on bed.
They ended up on bed — Suguru on top of her, allowing Shoko to have her face flushed when she noticed the intense gaze he’s giving her.
Suguru is totally not in the mood to entertain Shoko’s half-hearted phrases. He’s scared that she might mean those (She never did by the way).
“You’re not getting laid by someone else, Shoko. Not on my watch” the supposed cooler-friend Suguru is losing his cool on his friend at that moment.
“I mean like, you’re not invited. So yes, not really on your watch” flushed Shoko tried her best to act unfazed as she tried to break through. However, Suguru pinned her down again catching both of her hands then tucked his head on her neck.
Their bodies are so close, that’s when he called her.
“Shoko”
She likes to think that he’s just throwing tantrums and wants attention from her. So she doesn’t want to think any interpretation other than that unless he says it himself. After all, she’s a scared party to assume anything from her friend.
“hm?”
His hand left her hand and moved to hug her back. That's when Shoko removed his hair tie and stroked the longness of it.
“Shoko” he called her again.
“What it is, do you want, Suguru?” In contrast to her thought, softly she began to pamper him, asking him to say what he’s keeping. Perhaps being hopeful.
As for Suguru that moment, he is aware that jealousy infected his system by just thinking of someone else looking at her, heck it will kill him when she really sleeps with someone.
Suguru knew a long time ago that he likes his best friend, no more explanation why. The only reason why he hasn’t confessed yet is because he is convinced that their friendship is the safest way to keep her by his side for the longest time. So despite being aware, he just won’t admit it. Funny how even Satoru was able to win Utahime’s heart while he, Suguru, the supposed cooler friend, can’t even confess.
However, tonight’s situation is different. He has already bursted out from jealousy and all left for him to do is to say it.
“Shoko” again.
“What it is, tell me” Shoko’s voice went softer and it melted him.
This is it.
He took a deep breath and mentally prepared himself. So then he raised his head and met with her eyes, nervous.
“Be my girlfriend”
Uh.
He got lost in his thoughts and uttered the wrong words.
The raven-head has now proceeded to mentally prepare himself for the response to his gone wrong confession to the lady beneath him.
Meanwhile, despite being shocked the maiden is still truly aware of what had just happened.
She smiled.
Finally.
And stated, “okay”
The raven-head was taken aback this time and took a moment to process the simple word she said and lagged his face celebrating joyous to her response.
“What the hell” he can’t believe it.
Shoko pulled his dumb festive face and dragged him into a kiss. As festive as the man that he is, he smiled in between their kisses before taking a lead on a more passionate one.
“Okay, Mister, can you let me go now? The girls will have to wait for me at this point” she said when they separated.
He put on a sad face, “No movie marathon?” then Shoko just stared at him, a judging stare.
When he realized she won’t let his plan win, Suguru put on a dumb puzzled face then asked,
“Or sex?”
“What the hell” Shoko on her calmest pitch
The raven-head grinned and pinned her to bed once again before showering her neck kisses (he also left a mark).
“Suguruuu” pinned down Shoko was now the one whining.
At the end of the day, Shoko had to call her friends to inform her that she won’t be able to join them and Suguru won. They had their whole night having a movie marathon.
Just a movie marathon indeed.
BONUS
On that same night…
Suguru dialed someone.
“What do you want, Suguru?” Satoru on the other line.
“I’m getting married tomorrow” (he’s not)
“What”
“I’m getting married”
“… the hell”
“I’m getting married tomorrow”
“I know, I heard you once, fucker! Stop messing around with me. I’m not in the mood, Utahime’s out, Suguru Geto”
Suguru laughed, “I’m getting married, you’re invited”
“I mean, with who? And does Shoko know?!”
“She’s the bride”
“What the hell”
“What’s up Satoru” Shoko joined
“Shoko! Is that true?”
“No, it’s not”
Suguru frowned and ended the call right away.
“Shokoooo” he whined and when he’s about to do something naughty Shoko pointed at the screen.
“Behave, the movie is about to start” then started eating their popcorn.
