Misaki tried hard not to groan when he saw Mariya.
Noticing his expression, Mariya looked at him worriedly.
"What's wrong?" She asked
"Aren't you cold?" Misaki couldn't help but ask. Mariya was wearing an annoyingly short shorts.
"Oh, ah... just a little. But I really don't have a choice. It's our uniform for tonight." She said.
Misaki only nodded, biting back a retort. But he let out a sigh, he couldn't help it.
"Wear this, at least." He said, giving her his coat. "At least until we get there."
"How about you?" Mariya asked.
"I'm not cold." He lied.
Mariya smiled and kissed him on the cheek, gratefully.
"So, let's go?" She asked, offering her hand.
"Yeah." He said, taking her hand in his, and all the while dreading yet another night in the restaurant.
I judge by what she's wearing
Just how many heads I'm tearing
Sometimes, Misaki just want to go back to his teenage self. He knew the Sawatari Misaki would put a stop to this.
But he wasn't that Misaki anymore. He changed.
Mariya's parents has accepted him, yes, but he knew they still prefer someone better for their daughter.
Misaki agrees with this wholeheartedly. That's why he changed.
He swore to himself that he will be that better person.
So now, his week comprise of working part time during the weekends to support his own studies, studying Civil Engineering in the university during the weekdays, and during weeknights, he would go to the restaurant where Mariya have a part-time job and try to study.
"Try" being the operative word since there are so many distractions in this restaurant.
Each night seems like it's getting worse
And I wish she'd take the night off
Another thing Misaki agrees with Mariya's parents is that it is ridiculous for her to work part-time, especially in this restaurant/bar, when she have a stable job at their old school (She's an English teacher) and her parents are willing to support her is she needed it.
So I don't have to fight off
Mariya wouldn't have it though, saying she wanted to be independent and that she could take care of herself.
Every asshole coming on to her
It happens every night she works
Misaki really really really tries to ignore it if he can because 1) Mariya can really take care of herself; and because 2) he promised himself he would stop---avoid fighting.
But sometimes, some really just cross the line. Like tonight.
Don't they know it's never going to work
Misaki grabbed hold of the guy's hand before he could touch Mariya as she turned her back on him.
The guy was about to retort but he silenced him with a glare.
Each time she bats an eyelash
Somebody's grabbing her ass
Mariya had turned to them then, looking surprised. Misaki let go of the guy.
She looked at Misaki half-questioningly, half-suspicious. Misaki just let out a small smile and shook his head a little.
She still looked suspicious but she was distracted when another customer called for her.
Misaki groaned as he saw this next customer. He knew the guy well by now. He goes to this restaurant every night ever since Mariya started working here.
He wanted so bad to just drag Mariya out of this place but he knew he couldn't. He wouldn't hear the end of it from Mariya.
One look at the bastar--guy's face, sporting a very nasty smile (in Misaki's opinion) and looking at Mariya from head to toe, and he just wanted to poke the guy's eyes out.
I'm hating what she's wearing
Everybody here keeps staring
Can't wait 'til they get what they deserve
Misaki didn't notice he was holding his breath until he let it go when Mariya's boss called her. Mariya had bowed apologetically at the guy but when she turned she looked extremely relieved. Misaki too, was relieve.
'Safe for now...' He thought, and Misaki is talking about the guy.
Misaki almost jumped when someone had tapped him on the back. It was only Kento.
"Yo, having a great night?" He said, looking at where Mariya disappeared and then back to Misaki.
"Yeah." Misaki said, sarcastically. "What are you doing here?" He asked Kento.
Kento just shrugged. "Just thought I'd have a nice dinner out."
Misaki raise an eyebrow at him.
He laughed. "Well, actually Mariya mailed me, inviting me to come over. And now that I saw you I knew she must be worried 15 years old Misaki might make an appearance tonight. You're looking more and more restless each night."
Misaki sighed at this. He hated making Mariya worry.
"I'm fine." He just said.
"Oh~kay." Kento said. "Well, since I'm already here, I'll just eat dinner all the same..." He said, pulling Misaki back to his table.
Kento was successful in making Misaki relaxed a bit for exactly one minute. The minute Mariya was in the kitchen, but when she was back out, it was as if Kento wasn't there at all. Misaki watched Mariya like a hawk.
Kento literally jumped when Misaki suddenly stood up. Quickly searching for Mariya, he found Mariya holding a guy's risk which seems about to touch her back.
Kento watched as Mariya gave a guy a fake smile, pushed him none too gently and marched away.
Misaki took a step forward and Kento all but grabbed him. "Easy, Misaki. She can take care of herself fine."
Misaki was glaring. Kento is now really looking at 15 years old Sawatari Misaki.
"One more time and somebody's seriously getting hurt." He said through gritted teeth.
And Kento could only blink when Misaki growled once again. He muttered something and it sounded to Kento like "Here comes the next contestant."
Someone had now slapped Mariya's butt. And Kento couldn't stop Misaki this time.
He sighed as he followed him still trying to calm him but it fell on deaf ears.
It was with mixed exasperation and amusement as he listen to Misaki's cold furious voice.
"Is that your hand on my girlfriend?" Kento saw Mariya putting an arm around Misaki, trying to talk to him but Misaki was still glaring daggers at the guy.
"Do it again and I'll watch you leave here limping." He growled. Mariya had held onto Misaki's fist, trying to stop him.
That was when one drunk called to her, "Hey sexy, come and join us over here~!" He slurred. Misaki's deadly glare turned to him.
Kento sighed. "There goes the next contestant."
