Part 2 of Campfires And Girlfriends.

Lol for plot purposes, let's name his ex-girl 'Kimi'.

Now playing: Deep End by Fousheé

▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄

You and Ran walked around the mall, shopping for Christmas decorations.

He insisted that you should hold his hand and with much pleading, you gave in. He was very happy about it too, the both of you now walking around the mall with him having a smile on his face as you looked away for personal reasons.

Both of you aren't even official yet as he never did anything to confirm this forsaken relationship, and you never asked.

Well, just as he said a few days prior, the relationship was all just a part of the payback plan that you didn't think too carefully about, and now you gotta face the consequences.

"Hey Ran, do we really have to hold hands?" you asked.

He looked at you and fake gasped, placing his other hand on his mouth while pretending to look hurt. He slightly furrowed his eyebrows as he held your hand tighter.

[Ayo I low-key died when 'pretending' autocorrected to 'pre-wedding' LMAO—]

"Of course we should. We're a couple now, remember?" he asked, a bit of sarcasm dripping on his tone.

He had yet another smile as you rolled your eyes at his childish antics.

"No one ever made it official though..." you mumbled, Ran dragging you inside another store.

He only hummed as he turned to you with a small smile, his eyes closed.

"Do you like this one darling?" he asked as he held up some red poinsettias, your cheeks heating up from the nickname.

He really knows how to shut you up.

"You and your dorky ass, Haitani."

Or not.

Anyway, he just looked at you with yet another smile as he held your hand once again, pulling you gently as he wanted to go around the place.

As both of you were about to turn a corner, someone bumped into you, you not minding it and mumbling a little 'sorry' even. The other person didn't seem to hear you as you heard an annoyed voice.

"Aren't you looking?!" a somewhat annoyed and bratty voice yelled, making you turn to their direction.

And, being as cliché as it is, you bumped into none other than Ran's ex-girlfriend. Your 'best friend' too, to be exact.

Ran arched an eyebrow as he turned to look, a bored expression present on his fine features. His  hold on your hand tightened a bit as he eyed her new 'boyfriend'.

Kimi looked at you for a brief moment before forcing a smile on her face, pressing up even further on her new boyfriend. Ran just scoffed.

"Wow, I never thought you'd date him, (Y/N). It's understandable though, seeing how you always stick to him like a leech..." she trailed off, seemingly showing off her new boy.

"Come on, (Y/N). You don't want to waste your time talking to someone who obviously has zero brain cells left, right?" Ran whispered as Kimi arched an eyebrow at him.

"Well, look who's talking." she shot back.

Ran just sighed while rolling his eyes secretly.

"Does it smell like shit in here or is it just your breath?" you spoke loudly as she turned red.

You approached her new boyfriend and patted him on the back, making sure Kimi was looking. The poor guy looked so confused.

"I'll pray for you, pal. You deserve better." you mumbled loud enough for the four of you to hear as Ran stifled his laughter.

You laughed as you held Ran's hand once again, walking away as he laughed with you. You didn't get further though as you felt Kimi's hand grab a fistful of your hair, yanking it back painfully.

"So you think you're so clever now, huh? Going around, being a whore for him?" she snapped, pointing at Ran who had a smirk on his face. "I don't even know why I befriended you in the first place!"

You chuckled as she yanked your hair harder, you getting pissed off at how desperate she's sounding.

"Bitch, I could ask you the same. And for your information, shithead, I never slept with him. Well, maybe that one time in the tent... Although we NEVER did anything except sleep. Now let go of my hair and you'll be out here alive."

You were chuckling as you spoke, making Kimi even more furious.

"You heard what she said, Kim. Let go. I don't think she's in the mood for shit today." Ran chimed in as he approached her, removing her fingers away from you.

"Babe, let go." Kimi's boyfriend added, looking around.

Thankfully, the other people who were there earlier had walked away to some other part of the store.

"Bitch let go, you're running my damn hair and it took me an hour just to get it done today. I literally look so fine today and here you are with your grubby fingers, ruining my fucking hairdo!"

You heard Ran chuckle as you kicked his leg, making him shut up. Kimi's boyfriend looked so confused though, although he tried his best to pry his girlfriend off of you.

"So that's it?" Kimi scoffed mockingly, "You can't even fight for yourself!"

Ran clicked his tongue.

"Oh, she can, alright. And I don't think you'd like her to beat the shit out of you, Kim." Ran replied, smiling like nothing's wrong.

[Insert (Y/N) being a queen and not fighting some germ who decided to ruin her whole day—]

The way Ran said it didn't sound like he's joking, as Kimi's  grip on your hair loosened a bit. You took this chance and grabbed her hand, and, after making sure it hurts, you yanked her hand off of you. HARD.

You twisted it a bit but not enough to actually break it as you wanted her to suffer more.

And of course, she let out a shrill shriek.

"You bitch—!"

"I'm breaking an arm off next time. So consider yourself lucky, for now..." you mumbled, "Anyways, it was nice seeing you again, Kim."

You held Ran's hand, much to his surprise as both of you made your way out of there, but not before making a late statement.

"Oh and by the way, you're missing out on so much right now so, sucks to be you I guess." you blurted out loud as you motioned at Ran, Kimi's face turning red with anger as you laughed.

Ran chuckled as he squeezed your hand a little, making you look at him.

"I thought you were gonna snap back there." he sighed, looking in front. "I was a bit excited too..."

You looked at him in disbelief, arching an eyebrow as you huffed.

"And here I thought you were gonna help..." you uttered as he looked around the mall. "Bet you thought I was gonna kiss you back there too huh?"

He laughed dismissively as he dragged you into another store yet again, him spotting some interesting ornaments displayed on the store window.

"Hmm, a kiss from you would be gladly appreciated by now..."

"Shut your trap Haitani, we're not even official yet."

"Who says it needs to be official?"

...Single Rindou in the corner be like:
