Night Ride - Mikey x reader
Hii! My first post on Tumblr!! You may have seen this fic on other platforms of mine, so i'm just copying it over!! Also stay tuned!! I might do a daily headcanon post on various different Fandoms in my list!!
You couldnât sleep. You lay on your back, staring a hole into the ceiling, the only sounds being the pattering of the rain on your window and the tik-ticking of your clock. You rolled on your side to watch your phone charging on the nightstand. Lowering the blinding brightness on your phone, you glanced at the time, 02:14. Only 2 AM, really?
Sitting up on your bed and tucking your knees to your chest, you groaned out of pure and utter boredom, your head being completely empty, though it seemed as if the universe had other plans for you.
The familiar sound of a bike engine comes to a halt in front of your house and you perk up as you hear someone shouting over the thundering rain, â(Y/N)!â
Wait, I know the sound of that engine, thatâs Mikeyâs CB250T, so that must mean-
Throwing your duvet off yourself, you rushed to your window and parted the curtains to see a certain blond calling your name and waving at you like a maniac. Classic Mikey, a 5-year-old in the body of a teenager, you rolled your eyes but couldnât help but crack a smile as you made eye contact with Mikey. The rain made his hair stick to his face, and the white tee he wore under his toman uniform was soaked too, showing a bit of muscle under under his scrawny frame. But then, it hit you. It was rainingâŠand Mikey was outsideâŠ
THAT IDIOT MANCHILD IS GONNA CATCH A COLD!!!
You swiftly made your way downstairs, practically flying down them and you hastily opened the door to see him grinning like an idiot. âMoron, youâre gonna catch a cold!â You immediately lectured him as you grabbed his tee and pulled him inside, with him giggling like a schoolgirl.
âYeah, so what? Thatâs a problem for future me to handle. Anyway, wanna go for a ride?â He asked, not wasting a millisecond.
âYou do know that itâs absolutely chucking it down now?â You sassed him, incredulously. He may be your commander but that never scared you for giving him a bit of attitude. He simply shrugged in response to that, âOk, and??â This guy is impossible, you thought as you shook your head and questioned him a bit more, âItâs 2 AM?â
âAnd yet here you are, very clearly awake,â he shot back, relentlessly. You sighed and brought up something else to defend your case,
âBut my parts for my bike havenât arrived yet.â âWho cares? You can just backpack with me. So are you coming or are you gonna stay there as a worrywart?â Mikey asked impatiently, practically jumping off the walls in excitement. This guy isnât gonna give up, is he? You thought to yourself as you shook your head.
âOk, fineâŠDraken is gonna have my head for thisâŠâ You muttered the last part as you barely had time to grab a jacket and pull on some shoes before you were dragged outside in the torrential downpour by Mikey. How can such cute, chibi hands be so strong??
âWho cares about Ken-chin right now? Itâs just usâŠletâs just enjoy the moment, yeah?â He giggled as he sat on his bike and you sat behind him. Your heart couldnât help but flutter as he said those words, but the feeling was soon interrupted as the bike jerked forward and you wrapped your arms instinctively around his waist. As soon as you come back to your senses, you put your hands around his shoulders, thankful it was dark to hide the rushing heat coming to your cheeks. Mikey chuckled as he drove forward into the night, the light from his bike being scattered through the raindrops, making it seem almost ethereal and elusive.
You looked around and took a breath of the humid city air of Tokyo, not even acknowledging the coolness of the rain seeping through your already-soaked clothes. Not even realising when Mikey took the turn to go deeper into the urban jungle, you stared up at the skyscrapers around you, the lights becoming a bedazzling blur as you sped fast. Popular people modelled with popular products became nothing more than a flash of brightness as you both sped past the beaming advertisement projected onto the buildings. You couldnât hear yourself scream.
Nor talk.
Nor think. Nor breathe.
It was like -no - the ride did drown out all of your worries, the engineâs savage roar, barking like a rabid dog at your stress. Getting lost in the rush, you couldnât hear Mikey say your name for the third time,
â(Y/N)!!â
âHuh?â
Your face remade the shocked Pikachu meme as Mikey giggled again, making sure his eyes were on the road, but occasionally looking over his shoulder at you. He asked, âAny place you wanna stop by?â
You scoffed incredulously, âI thought you were the one that wanted to go on a ride? Shouldnât you know?â He stayed silent for a few moments, before replying, âNow that you said itâŠI do.â âWhat was the point of asking me then, Dimwit??--â
You didnât get to finish your quip as Mikey took a tight turn and sped up, you gripped his shoulders a little tighter. Screech. Vroom.
Your head jerked forward as Mikey pulled on the brakes, stopping the bike on a bridge overlooking the river. You werenât gonna lie, you thought that he was gonna stop at a Doraki shop, knowing how Mikey thinks with his stomach. Also, on that note, you were expecting an âI ran out of gasâ or âthe chain came offâ until Mikey got off and stood at the railing of the bridge, looking over.
Blink. Blink. Blink. You stared at him dumbfounded until you got off the bike aswell, feeling it was the right moment for a playful comment. âYou know I can push you off, right?â
There wasnât any real malice in those words as you made your way next to him, admiring how the city lights and the glow from the orange moon danced across the lazy, gentle ripples, also secretly admiring how Mikey looked like a damn, fine-ass model in the lighting. âI know I may be a pain in the ass and how gutsy you are, but even then I know you wonât do it,â he spoke back, uncharacteristically serious. You kept your cool and threw back your reply, âIs that so? And how exactly do you know that?â
He then looked at you,
âBecause you have a crush on me, thatâs how I know.â

âOK, now letâs get some Dorayaki!â âYOU CANâT JUST DROP THAT BOMB ANDââ
âWell, I can.â âSAID WHO??â âMikey did.â
