The Awkward Confrontation
A/N: This is the Humility prompt. I had thought of having an awkward meeting between two characters (Heiji and Sonoko) giving the two a backstory but then I changed my mind, and I think I like the idea I had in my head afterwards better….I hope you enjoy.
Kaito had a heist to plan, Sonoko had some shopping to get done. Their little house was practically empty food wise because Sonoko’s monthly budget had been spent last time they went shopping, (only because Kaito has a slight constant eating problem….mostly off Sonoko, but that’s a different story…) Since he proposed and she found out she was pregnant she was also asking for weird things. Chocolate ice cream and pickles, tobasco sauce on EVERYTHING, her cravings were just weird.
At first, the cravings were nothing but greasy foods, her favorite being onion rings, they could be from anywhere, they could be those disgusting ones that came from a bag, she didn’t care, anything greasy, French fries, onion rings, she even did corn dogs once and she HATES corn dogs. It was just something about them being deep friend in oil that made her want them even more.
It was at times like this where she wished Kaito was with her, she had a bit of a minor breakdown in the grocery store, and that’s where she saw him, a former boyfriend, one that she would never let near her again if she could help it. Hattori Heiji had a bit of an anger issue he needed to work out before he was allowed anywhere near Sonoko. “You look like you’ve seen better days Sonoko.” He said, his accent slipping through in every word.
Shut up or I’ll puke on you or something…
“Heiji.” She said softly.
“How are ya doing?” he asked feeling kind of awkward to start with.
“I’m getting married.” She said not mentioning anything about the baby.
“You just seemed a little agitated earlier when you couldn’t find something, wait did you just say you were getting married?”
“That would be what I said Heiji.” She said looking into his blueish green eyes.
“To who?” he asked. This confrontation was just getting more and more awkward as time went on.
“I don’t think that’s any of your concern Heiji, you broke up with me because I was “with someone else” while I was with you, the fact that you were wrong still haunts you doesn’t it?”
Heiji looked down.
“I’m sorry Heiji, but I’m late for a meeting with Kaito, I have to go.” She said picking up a jar of pickles to put in the basket with the chocolate ice cream she just grabbed, sure there was real food in there too but this was her craving food.
“Kaito, is that your fiance?” he asked.
“It is, now if you’ll excuse me.”
“Sonoko wait!” he said as he grabbed her wrist and pulled her into him. The kiss was fast because Sonoko didn’t let it last, after she broke off the kiss she slapped him in the face. “How DARE you!” she yelled as she took her basket with her.
It was at this point Sonoko felt sorry for herself, she knew that this wouldn’t have ended well regardless, but she let it happen, and for that she felt absolutely horrid with herself.
That bastard, he knew that I would have, he knew that I had a weakness for him and he went for it, that FUCKING bastard! She cried out in her mind while the lady was ringing her up.
She saved more money than she originally expected, and she walked back to the little place that her and Kaito lived still feeling slightly horrible for what she had done. She touched her stomach and smiled. “You know, I may feel like an idiot for letting that happen back there, but you and Kaito are my biggest priority.”
“Well I can say, I’m glad you passed my test.” Kaito said from behind.
Sonoko turned around to see Kaito disguised as Heiji standing there, still with a giant handprint on his face from when she slapped him. Tears welled up in her eyes again as she inspected the handprint on her soon to be husbands face. He took out the greenish-blue contact lenses, “Sonoko, it’s good to see you’ve changed.” He whispered.
“It’s all because of you I’ve stayed grounded, and with one person, Heiji was someone I cared for a lot, but he thought that I…”
Kaito kissed her softly, her self-worth reintact. “Get that damn makeup off, it makes me think that I’m kissing Heiji, and that meeting at the grocery store even though IT WAS YOU, really scared me, I felt incredibly humiliated I hope you realize this.”
“I’m glad that you passed my test though, you could have you know hit me a little more…well softly, I mean that really hurt. You almost had me in tears sweetie.”
She wasn’t sure if it was the hormones of the baby or if she was just relieved that Heiji didn’t really molest her in a grocery store. “Don’t do that again you hear me?”
“I swear on my father’s grave I’ll never do anything that stupid to you ever again, that punch is ridiculous!”
Sonoko smiled knowing for sure that she was in for the long haul in this relationship, and she was glad that no matter how humiliated she felt after that day with “Heiji” she knew that Kaito would always be by her side.
