If you read “My Best Friend’s Brothers” already (thank you btw <3) & were left wondering how in the fuck everyone got from point A to point B, this is the scene I accidentally left out (like a fucking moron) that covers the boys’ proposition to the reader.
“Hey,” Natsuo approaches you first with a welcoming smile.
“Oh, hey,” you drop your phone to your side and smile at the white haired man before you, waving a friendly hello to Shouto and Touya as well when they stroll up behind him. “Hi, guys.”
“Hi,” Shouto replies coolly, “You look great tonight.”
“Hey, doll,” Touya smolders, producing a lazy grin that sets butterflies free in your stomach. “I like the costume. Suits you.”
The other two clearly do not appreciate the way that Touya’s words seem to have such an effect on you, but you’re too flustered to notice as you drop your gaze to inspect the floor.
“Thanks,” you giggle nervously. “Your sister’s s’posed to be my better half tonight,” you find the nerve to look up and peer into his turquoise eyes and are almost rendered breathless by the way he his smile softens. “But she’s off playing hostess. I assume none of you will be making the rounds with her?”
You feel like you might actually burn up underneath his eyes, so you look between Shouto and Natsuo, who also offer you a pair of grins that don’t have you faring any better.
“Unfortunately not,” Shouto says, nodding and tucking his hands in his pockets as his eyes travel the length of your body. “We actually had something a little more adventurous planned for this evening.”
“What plan might that be?” You tilt your head in curiosity and Natsuo takes a step closer to you.
“Well, the whole thing kind of depends on you, actually,” he leans against the wall on his shoulder, coming closer to you than he ever has before. “I hate to put you on the spot like this, but we do have quite a question for you.”
“Uhm,” you let out a quiet, nervous laugh and look between the three of them. “Okay..what is it?”
What could the three of them possibly want with you? Did they just wanna hang out? Was the party that boring for them too?
You’re comfortable enough with all of them to feel confident about spending the evening with them, sure. You’ve had the opportunity to get to know them all fairly well over the years that you’ve known Fuyumi, since she’s always been so big on family and spending time here with the rest of them when she could. It was natural for her to just bring you into the fold, inviting you over for game nights, family dinners, functions like these, etc.
But that doesn’t seem like something they would have to propose to you. Not in such a manner as this, at least. The way that they all seem to exchange glances doesn’t settle your nerves. In fact, it agitates them, leaving you flicking your eyes to each of their faces, anxiously waiting for someone to say something.
“Really?” Touya looks between his younger siblings and rolls his eyes dismissively before leveling them at you, his signature grin setting another batch of butterflies aflight. “Look, to preface, if you’re not into it, that’s totally cool.” He says the words so casually, but the preamble makes your stomach twist into unworkable knots; this might actually be a doozy of a proposition. “But my brothers and I were hoping that you might join us for some,” he pauses briefly to think of the correct word. “Adult fun.”
He emphasizes the last word, the corner of his lip tugging up into a handsome smirk, so that you absolutely cannot misunderstand him.
“What?” You choke on the word, blinking between all three of them. “Are you..are you guys fucking with me? This is—”
Shouto shakes his head, “We’re not playing a trick on you. We’re serious. But again, only if you want to join us, obviously.”
Natsuo and Touya nod in agreement, all three men looking directly at you for an answer to the unfathomable question that they just posed to you.
It was certainly a unique proposition. Not one that you were prepared to hear in the slightest, but also not one that you were likely to ever receive again. It was a crazy idea—one that Fuyumi could never hear about—but, how could you say no?
Shouto is a wildly talented up-and-coming pro hero. Natsuo’s well on his way to becoming a phenomenal doctor. And Touya’s..well, he’s Touya. The notoriously forbidden older brother of your best friend. It’s a cliché, for sure, but it’s one that you walked straight into the second that you laid eyes on him.
The way those striking eyes of his fell upon your frame as a raspy, “Hey, doll,” dripped right off of his pierced tongue. Were you not supposed to have a reaction to that?
Oh well, you did. Repeatedly. Every single time you accompanied Fuyumi to some sort of family function. He always seemed to be around, always did have a “Hey, doll,” waiting to fluster you too, though you seriously doubted that he understood the extent of the effect he had on you.
Shouto and Natsuo weren’t by any means unattractive either. Rei and Enji were clearly incapable of producing ugly children. Natsuo was tall and broad, whereas Shouto was shorter than his brother, but still incredibly well-toned, no doubt thanks to his profession. Both were incredibly handsome, of course. Incredibly sweet to you too whenever you saw them. Both were clearly boyfriend material. Husband material even, no question.
They weren’t Touya, who may or may not be boyfriend material, depending on who you ask. Touya, whose gaze hadn’t left your form since he walked over here. Those bright blue eyes of his were burning your form as intensely as his flames could. They were hypnotizing, and couple with the lingering scent of woodsy cologne and cigarette smoke, they were intoxicating.
Drunk on lust with just a look. Maybe that’s why you agreed so quickly. Maybe that’s why you were following the troublesome trio up the stairs and into the guest bedroom in the furthest corner of the house, far away and out of earshot of any party goers who might stumble upon the slew of sins that you intend to commit once the door clicks shut.
