asking your boyfriend higuruma if you're allowed to go outside😚
higuruma sat at the desk in his home office, glasses resting low on his nose as he skimmed through a folder full of important documents. his phone was wedged between his shoulder and ear.
“no,” he said calmly into the phone, talking to his assistant. “file the motion first. if anything new gets submitted overnight, i want it forwarded to me first thing in the morning.”
you leaned against the doorway, watching him work.
you slowly enter the room, walking over to him and letting your hands rest on both of his shoulders.
he leaned into your touch, glancing up briefly to meet your eyes.
“give me a moment,” he murmurs to his assistant, but he doesn’t mute the call.
“yes darling, what is it?”
you tilt your head sweetly.
“am i allowed to go outside today?”
you clasped your hands behind your back innocently.
“am i allowed to go outside today? i feel like eating ice cream and we ran out.”
his assistant, still on the line, quietly said, “sir..? are you still there?”
higuruma slowly pulled his phone away from his ear and turned his entire chair around, now completely facing you.
“you’re asking me for permission to go outside?”
his eyebrows knit together.
you shrugged softly. now it’s time to sell the act.
“well… you haven’t let me leave the house in two weeks, and i really want some ice cream and fresh air–”
you didn’t respond, afraid that you would laugh and ruin the joke.
the silence stretched so long that even his assistant felt compelled to ask.
“...sir?” the voice drifted through the phone.
higuruma pressed the phone back to his ear, trying not to sound as out of it as he was.
“yes, what’s the matter?”
“i, uh... is everything okay.. over there…?”
higuruma’s left eye twitched.
“yes yes, everything’s fine. do you mind if i call you back?”
“well sir, we still haven’t finish with the–”
higuruma hit the end call button before his assistant could even get their next sentence out. after tossing his phone back onto his desk, he turned back around to face you.
his stare made you feel like bolting out of the room.
“why are you looking at me like that? i was just asking you a question.”
your face contorted to one of confusion.
he leans back in his chair a little.
“obviously you’re upset with me. why else would you come in here and make it seem like i’m holding you hostage rather than dating you.”
you held in your laugh. you couldn’t laugh yet.
“but i didn’t do anything–”
“sweetheart, you have free will. you have never asked me anything like that before, so, one could only assume that you’re upset.”
you stared at him, and he stared back at you.
“does that mean i can’t go outside?”
“you. have. free. will.” he says, punctuating each word with a firm undertone. “you can go outside. please go outside. i would never stop you so i don’t understand why you’re asking me this all of a sudden.”
you nod, backing up and bowing in front of him.
“thank you for allowing me to venture out into the world.”
he’s bewildered. he scooted his chair back, hitting the desk as he stood up.
you can’t take it anymore.
you fall to your knees in laughter, holding your stomach as he stares at you like he just got told his evidence for a case disappeared.
“why are you laughing? do you think this is funny?”
you finally get yourself to calm down, taking a few deep breaths.
“i’m joking, baby. oh my gosh, i’m just playing with you.”
he huffs, sitting back down in the chair and running a hand over his face.
you look up and catch his gaze. he’s just looking at you.
it made you feel like squirming.
“get me a new pack of pens while you’re out,” he says before turning back to his desk, picking up the folder, and flipping through its contents
you stand up, eyeing him carefully.
“that’s all…? that’s all you have to say?”
“you can take my car. call me when you’re on your way back.”
