Torn apart | S. Manjirou

50

"Let's have a little dance, shall we?" He whispered to my ear, almost making me jump on my chair out of horror.

The DJ, who is also the host entertainer, went deeper in the crowd, dancing to the music and gesturing us to come with him. I smiled and shook my head, meaning that i'm not going to go, but Mikey pulled me with him. Shit, this is bad, i feel humiliated.

Emma and Draken also got carried in by the toastmaster, at least they looked like having fun. Manjirou placed his arms in my waist and looked into my eyes through his hair. Lord, he looks too hot. I was at loss of words, since his stare made me feel thousands of emotions, making my stomach go crazy. I raised a finger and mouthed 'one second', oneshotting some alcohol on the table. That drink emboldened me, as i wasn't feeling that shy anymore.

He smirked, winking at me, and tightened the grip on my waist. "Let's go."

As Mikey dragged me to the dancing circle, I sensed a lot of people staring at us. My muscles probably tensed up, which Manjirou noticed. "Don't be scared, they don't bite." He grinned, looking slightly evil. My eyes widened, remembering past.

| As we reached the top of the stairs, i almost fainted. So many dudes staring at us!

Mikey probably noticed my dumb face, so he pulled me closer to him, "Don't be scared, they don't bite." |

"Come on, show me some moves!" He seductively said, running his fingers on my belly. I hitched my breath, noticing the tension between us right now.

"Alright! Here goes our first couple! But first, introduce yourselves!" The DJ shouted, dancing around us. He passed the microphone to Mikey first.

"Sano Manjirou, aka Mikey, Bonten's boss," He lazily said, sounding drunk. I wondered when he managed to get drunk already. "Ooh, Bonten's boss!" The DJ cooed, clasping his hands, "Applause for an important figure in here! What's the name of a sexy lady by your side?"

I got passed a microphone, "Aruna Lesa, Mona Navina pres!" The deejay faked shock, emphasizing the expression on his face, "So we got two bosses here, huh?" Then he moved closer to me and whispered on the microphone, "Are you taken?" The crowd went crazy laughing, almost rolling on the floor. It's only been almost an hour, and everyone was already drunk as fuck. "Not yet," i whispered back, making the entertainer grin.

"What about this groomsman though? Will he not mind, if i steal you after the show?" He whispered again, causing the guests to snicker. "N-"

"Yes, he will." Mikey whispered, pulling me away. My jaw dropped at the action, i couldn't imagine Mikey already getting jealous. Makes me feel like a main character.

The toastmaster laughed, "Alrighty, Mikey and Aruna, before you amuse us with the show, let us give you some drinks as an encouragement!" He passed us doubtful glasses with some alcohol in it. I looked at Mikey: he raised his eyebrow, as if pointing to the liquid, meaning for me to drink it, and of course I did. However, i also kept staring at Sano, in case he decided to drug the drinks.

I squinted my eyes, as i felt the adrenaline rush in my blood, the amount of energy in me right now was insane. I glanced at Mikey, who seemed to be as cheerful as me. He pulled me by my hand, making us stand in the middle of the room. The stares were making me feel almost suffocated, the looks they were giving me were frantic.

"Look at me." Mikey ordered, as my head flashed to his side. "It's just the two of us here, okay?"

I tilted my head, recognizing the old Manjirou in these eyes and words, "Okay."

He leaned closer to me and whispered, "What are you good at?"

At fooling you, eating chocolate, walking in heels, rejecting men, getting kidnapped and stabbed, doing makeup — elaborate what you want in me.
