Arisu Ryohei x Reader x Chishiya Shuntaro

Taglist. Masterlist. Progress Update. Heart and Diamond Collection.

Summary: You and Chishiya notice Arisu for the first time.

It was a new night and a new game. You stood leaning against a wall with your boyfriend, Chishiya, standing beside you. His hood was up, and his hands were in his pockets. Chishiya was waiting for his taser to charge. You thought it was one of his better inventions. Meanwhile, the two of you shared your music player, each having an earphone in. Listening to the soft music.

"There are a lot of people here. Maybe one's a doctor." A voice catches your attention. You look towards the entrance and see two guys walking in. The shorter of the two, the one with the dark hair, catches your attention. You watch the two walk to the table and grab a phone. Your eyes lock with the dark-haired male. You give him a sweet smile and a wave. He blushes and quickly looks away. He took another sneak peek at you, only to see both you and Chishiya watching him. The male quickly turned his attention to his taller friend.

A finger tapped your waist, causing you to look at your boyfriend. "Hmm, found a new victim already?" He asked you quietly, a smirk on his face. His fingers ran down to toy with your bikini skirt. It was like your usual one. Just this time it was white and purple rather than white and blue. You had shorts underneath and were wearing an actual top. You also had on one of Chishiya's jackets. It was a lot like his white one, but pink. You scoffed. "Victim? Shuntaro, Dear, you wound me." You told him as you placed a hand on your chest, over your heart. He shook his head a you. "If you behave, I'll patch you up later." His words made you giggle.

A giggle that reached Arisu's ears. His attention was brought away from Karube, his eyes moving to you and the man beside you. By the gods, your giggle was like music to Arisu's ears. He wanted to hear it forever. Wait, no. He couldn't think things like that. He had to focus on the game, not on a stranger. Fingers clicked in his face, causing him to look at his best friend. "Sorry, what?"

"Registration has closed. There are a total of 14 participants. The game will now commence." "Difficulty, Five of Spades." "Game is 'Tag'." "Rule. Avoid whoever is 'It'"

You let out a soft whine. "I hate running. I should have gone with Kuina." Chishiya simply shook his head at your words.

"Clear Condition: Discover and touch the base hidden in one of the building's rooms within the time limit. You clear the game when this objective is fulfilled." "Time limit, 20 minutes. After twenty minutes, the time bomb hidden in the building will explode."

You looked around for a moment. You noticed a cute girl stretching. She had the right idea. Everyone began to wander off. Chishiya squatted down to unplug the taser he had made and shoved it in his pocket. You turned off your music and wrapped the earphones around the music player. You shoved it into your jacket pocket. Chishiya then took your hand in his and walked to the elevator. He pressed the button and let you inside first. You turned, noticed those two guys again. Both are now watching you and Chishiya. You waved at the two. Karube looked away, whereas Arisu had somehow gained the courage to wave back.

As the doors closed and the elevator began to rise, Arisu let out a hiss. Karube had smacked him in the back of the head. "Arisu, we have to go." Arisu let out a small breath but nodded. He began to follow Karube up the stairs.

Once the elevator hit the top floor, you and Chsihiya walked hand in hand to the south walkway. From where the two of you stood, you could see everything and basically everyone.

"It's just as I thought. The most important strategy in this game is placement. This spot has the best vantage point if we don't know where it will emerge. We can observe most of the complex from here; there's no sense in wandering around where visibility is so limited." Chishiya leaned one arm on the railing. The other snaked around your waist.

"Choosing an L-shaped apartment complex, what a thoughtful game." That made you laugh. Chishiya could be funny when he wanted to be. He always knew how to make you smile or calm your nerves.

"Mmm, very thoughtful indeed, dear. It's almost like the game knew we were coming." Chishiya grinned down at you. You both turned in the direction of the elevator to see Aguni and one of his militants getting off. Chishiya waved at him. You copied his action. "Hi Aguni!" The man just grunted and walked away.

"Hmm, I think we're cracking through the hard exterior. He grunted this time. That's progress." You told your boyfriend, who simply chuckled at you.

You both got back to watching the other players. "The most important tool on the battlefield is information. How can you fight an enemy you don't know? Their appearance, weapons, habits, patterns, thought process... we can observe it all from here. I have the initiative." You watched as he pulled his hood down. "You may have killed more than me... but I'm smarter than you."

You let out a soft giggle, knowing he was talking to the game. "You're so dramatic. I love you." Chishiya looked at you, placing a soft kiss on your lips.

"I love you too, Darling. Now, help me pick out some guinea pigs so I can conduct my research." The two of you looked around. "Let's start with them." Chishiya gestured to the guys you had waved at in the lobby.

You pouted. "Hmm, alright."

"The Game will now commence. The time limit is 20 minutes. Commence now. The tagger is on the move."

--------------

You frowned, hearing a door open and close. Your eyes darted everywhere. "I don't see anything."

Chishiya looked over the railing. "I can't quite see from here. The base is likely from the same apartment it came out of. It would have been nice to see that right off the bat. But I'm guessing the base must be in the south tower." Chishiya looked at you, and you shrugged up at him. You wrapped your arms around his waist, cuddling into his side.

"Hmm, that would have been too easy for you, my love." Chishiya smiled at your words, placing a kiss on your forehead.

The two of you looked at each other for a moment before something caught Chishiya's eye. "Woah, are they serious? Five of spades, I underestimated you." You turned your head to see what he was looking at. Only to see a man in a horsemask, carrying a gun. He was a big guy. The sight was kind of unsettling.

The two of you watched as the man in the horse mask shot down two guys. He then began to shoot at the stairwell. The two of you watched the two guys you had waved at run down the stairs with another man. However, as the other man continued down another set of stairs, the cute guy with the dark hair pulled his friend around the corner to the walkway. Arisu held his breath, Karube doing the same as footsteps got closer. Thankfully, though, the footsteps continued down the stairs, allowing both men to let out a breath.

You shared a look with Chishiya. "Hmm, impressive decision making under pressure." The blonde spoke. "Maybe your intuition was right."

You smiled brightly at your boyfriend. "Mmm, he's cute and smart. He could be the one, you know?"

Chishiya raised an eyebrow at you. "Are you sure, sweetness?" He had to admit, the other male was good-looking, and he was showing his smarts.

You nodded your head. "I think it's time I joined the game." You told him. You wanted to go and talk to this guy.

"Are you sure, darling? We could always talk to him later. You know I don't want you in danger." Chishiya knew very well that you could take care of yourself. But the idea of you being in any kind of danger always made it hard for him to breathe.

"I'll be okay. I need to speak with him to be sure. Besides, with you being here, you can tell me on our walkie-talkies if that horse mask gets close to where I am. I'll see you soon, my love." You pressed a soft kiss to his lips. He, of course, kissed you back. The two of you parted and pulled out your walkie-talkies.

"Hey, baby!" You turned back to Chishiya, hearing his voice. "I wanna see him quiver."

"Anything for you, my love." You winked at the blonde before making your way to the stairs and going down.

------

"HEY EVERYONE, CAN YOU HEAR ME!!?" You frowned, hearing a voice shouting out. You made your way downstairs.

"The player chasing us is wearing a horse mask and is armed with an automatic. If we can let each other know where it's heading. We can search for the base safely. If we work together, it won't be able to catch up. We can all get out alive!"

You walked towards the walkway and smiled, seeing the two guys. You could practically hear Chishiya's voice in your head. "So passionate. Also pretty sharp. Those two might become the MVPS of this round. However, will it be that easy? With this many players, why should I put myself at risk? Do I really need to go to the walkways to look for the base? Shouting out its location? Won't that just give away my own position? Can I even trust intel from another player? I don't care if we're on the Earth or the Moon. As long as we survive, I don't care how many others die. That's human right?" That's what he would have told you. He would have pulled you closer. Reminding you that his main goal was always to keep you and himself safe. To make sure you both survive.

"It's on the sixth floor, south walkway! If you're close by, run!" A female voice came.

You walked over to the two guys and looked over the railing to see a girl climbing up to another floor. "Hmm, a climber. How fun."

Your voice caused the two males to jump. You let out a soft giggle. "Oh, my apologies. I didn't mean to startle you both." You walked over to a door and turned the handle. It didn't open. You turned back to the two males and introduced yourself. You held a hand out to them.

The two looked at each other. The taller one stepped forward first, after a beat of silence. "I'm Karube." He shook your hand. It was firm yet still gentle. He flashed a charming smile your way. You let out a hum as your hands parted. "Pleasure." You turned to look at the shorter one.

"What about you, sweetheart? You got a name? Or would you just prefer it if I called you cutie?" That made Arisu's eyes too wide. Sweetheart? Cutie? Were... were you flirting with him? Holy shit! A pretty girl was giving him nicknames in the middle of a death game. But wait, didn't you have a boyfriend? Then again, he had seen you both watching him in the lobby.

Karube nudged Arisu forward, causing him to snap out of his thoughts. "I'm Ryohei Arisu." Oh, full name. A bright smile appeared on your perfectly soft pink lips. You had the lipstick tube in your pocket. The two of you shook hands. His grip was softer than Karube's. His eyes met yours. He sucked in a breath seeing you already looking at him.

"Ryohei Arisu." You tested his name out on your lips as you pressed down on the walkie-talkie button, allowing Chishiya the ability to hear the name of your target, and it sent a shiver down Arisu's spine. He suddenly longed to hear you say his name again. "I saw you by the way. When you were running away from it. The fact that you chose to go towards the walkway and not down the stairs was inspired. A really smart choice. Most people would have ended up downstairs and died. But not you. Cute and smart. You're basically the whole package."

"Thank you." That made you smile. He was polite and had manners, too. Arisu was sure his brain just short-circuited. His knees quivered for a moment. He wasn't used to this. To a girl flirting with him. He wasn't used to being praised, but it made his chest bubble with pride. Karube looked between the two of you. He was just as stunned, but he was proud of his best friend. So he patted his back. Karube then frowned.

"Wait, how did you see that?" He turned to you in confusion.

You guested over to where Chishiya stood. The two males looked up to the top floor to see Chsihiya leaning against the railing. Walking-talking with a hand, watching the three of you. He waved at the three of you. Causing you to excitedly wave back. A smirk appeared on his face.

You pressed the talk button. "Isn't he handsome?" You asked, looking at Arisu. The male looked between you and Chishiya. He nodded. "Very handsome." You let go of the button as you watched Chishiya nod at you with a small smile.

Crap, Arisu couldn't believe he had just agreed with you, but then again. He had been honest when he had agreed. The blonde was handsome. The way he stared at him made Arisu weak at the knees. Fuck, what were you two doing to him? Two total strangers, one of whom he hadn't even spoken to yet, were making his mind race and freeze at the same time.

"Chishiya and I have been up there the whole game. Watching. Shiya loves a good advantage point." You explained to the two. "That's how we say you two running away from it. It's how we saw this cutie come up with a good plan under such pressure." That made Arisu blush. He scratched the back of his neck.

You began to walk down the walkway. Arisu hurried to catch up to you. You hid your smirk behind a sweet smile. Chishiya, however, grinned. "Hmm, maybe she was right."

You looked at Arisu as he walked in time with you. "Where are you going?" He asked in confusion.

You giggled. "To look for the base, silly." Arisu's eyes widened. Oh yeah, the base. How had he forgotten? He turned and tried a door. Nothing. And so you and two males tried opening every door on the floor.

----

A sudden boom was heard. Someone had set a landmine off. You suppressed the urge to roll your eyes. You couldn't focus on that right night. Karube ran ahead, trying some doors. You and Arisu ran after him, trying the doors that Karube hadn't tried. You didn't have a lot of time left. Around ten minutes were left.

Karube banged on a door. "They're all locked!"

"The complex is too big. We'll never search everywhere in time." Arisu muttered. Karube continued to run ahead, though Arisu came to a stop, panting. He tired.

"Not much of a runner either? I hate running." You told him.

"What are you two doing? You can't just stand in the middle of the walkway!" Karube shouted at the two of you. He was at the end of the walkway, by the entrance to the stairwell.

You took out your walkie-talkie as it crackled to life. "Baby! You have to run. He's coming to your floor. West stairwell." Your eyes widened. You turned to Arisu and grabbed his hand. "We have to go, now." You told him. You shoved the walkie-talkie back in your pocket. Just as you got ready to run, the tagger stepped onto your floor.

"Fuck."

Arisu knew you two wouldn't make it to Karube in time. So he pulled your hand as he sat on the floor against the wall. Thankfully, the doors were in little cutouts in the walls. Giving you and Arisu a corner and a place to hide. He pulled you so that you were between him and the door, keeping himself the closest to the danger.

Cute, smart, sweet, polite, a little shy and protective? Interesting.

Chishiya's breath felt like it was caught in his throat. He could see the two of you. Huddled on the floor as the tagger got closer and closer to your spot. He couldn't believe it. He should have just kept you by his side. He should have told you you could talk to Arisu after the game. But no, you both got cocky and wanted some fun. Now you were in danger.

He watched closely. He watched as you placed a hand on Arisu's mouth. The male was panicking, but you whispered something to him, making him calm down a little.

"Breath, pet. Stay quiet, stay still. Press yourself against the wall, sweetness and keep your head down. Breathe, honey." You had whispered to the male.

Chishiya watched as Arisu seemed to melt into your arms. How he seemed to relax after your words. Hmm, well, that certainly was interesting.

The three of you froze as the masked man walked into view and then walked right past the two of you. You waited for him to leave before you breathed.

You looked at Arisu and smiled. "You okay? Arisu?" The way you said his name made him gulp. It was like cotton candy. So sweet.

The male nodded his head after hesitating for a moment. "I think so."

You pulled out your walkie-talkie and pressed the button. "Thank you for the heads up."

"I noticed him too late, love. Are you okay?" Chishiya's voice came, making Arisu look at the device in your hand.

"I'm okay, thanks to Arisu-" Arisu shook his head. "If you hadn't helped me calm down, we would probably be dead by now." Humble too.

"We have eight minutes. You two need to get a move on." You nodded at Chishiya's words and stood up. You turned to Arisu and held out a hand to him. "Come on. We have a base to find."

You lifted the walkie to your lips and pressed the button. "Let me know when you're on the move." You put the walkie back in your pocket.

"Wait. We can't keep running blindly. We need to think of this differently. How would I play the game if I were it? If I were it, I'd use the central stairwell because it's connected to everything. So it would be the most likely place to encounter players." You pressed the button, letting Chishiya hear Arisu's mind work.

"We're in the final minutes of the game. The last half. So that would leave me with the most athletic players and those who are smart to stay away from the likely places. At least that's how I'd think if I were it. I'd be worried about some players possibly fighting back. Like animals backed into a corner. So.." He trailed off for a moment.

Chishiya chuckled, hearing your voice come throw his walkie. "Don't leave me hanging, Arisu. Tell me more. Show me how smart that pretty brain of yours is."

"I'd be expecting them to fight back. The prey becomes the predator. If I were it. My biggest fear would be running out of bullets. Knowing that, if I were it, I wouldn't bother with reloading. I'd have more than one weapon ready. We're approving the final of the game. If I were it, I would- I would..." He groaned and pulled at his hair. "I can't think."

You let go of the button and took your hand out of your pocket. "Arisu, it's okay." You looked up, hearing multiple gunshots. They were stopping.

Chishiya placed his chin on his left hand as he watched the other players. He could hear the gunfire. "Did someone poke the bear? You can't go breaking the rules. If you chase it, it's not tag."

------

Arisu looked over the railing. His eyes widened, noticing some bullet holes near a door. "Bullet holes? Why are the bullet holes at that angle? It shot across from the south walkway? That must mean- that means he was shooting for another reason. It's an L-shaped complex. But shooting from that far away would just be a waste of bullets. Why just there?" He asked.

"To deter them." You told him, arms crossed over your chest.

Arisu nodded his head. "The base is on the fourth floor, west walkway!"

"Arisu! You had me worried. You're okay!" A voice called from the sixth floor. It was Karube.

You and Arisu rushed off to the fourth floor, ready to finally end this game. You pulled out your walkie, Chishiya's voice coming through. "I'm on the move, gorgeous. We need all hands on deck." You grinned at his words. "I see he finally noticed the bullet holes?" Arisu looked back at you in confusion as you laughed.

"Yeah, we're on our way there now. Be careful." You told him as you ran.

Chishiya smiled as he walked. "You too, Darling."

As you and Arisu approached the fourth floor, he frowned. "We have under a minute left. If I were it, I know exactly where I'd be." The two of you walked into the walkway. There he was, IT. He was blocking your path. "He's guarding the base."

Out of nowhere, Karube jumped onto the man. The two tumbled down the stairs. It gave you and Arisu the chance to run to the base. So you did. You ran to the door and opened it. Inside were two buttons. Two buttons that had to be pressed at the same time.

----

Chisiya made his way downstairs. He was just in time to see IT. The man in the horse mask had his gun aimed at Karube, who had attempted to move down the floor via the outside, like how Usagi had been moving around, rather than going down the stairs. He took out his gun and fired. He missed. "That was my first time shooting a gun. It's harder than it looks in the movies." Chishiya turned and headed upstairs.

----

You and Arisu ran towards a button each and pressed it. There were mere seconds left.

"Game Cleared."

The two of you stayed there for a moment, sitting on the floor. Both tired and processing what had happened, before Arisu got up. He offered you his hand. "Come on. I need to check on Karube, and you need to find Chishiya." You smiled, hearing Arisu say your boyfriend's name. You placed your hand in his, and he pulled you up.

----

Chishiya made his way to Karube.

"You have a gun?" Karube asked in confusion.

"Yup!" Chishiya chuckled. "It was my first time shooting at a person, though."

"Why did you save my life?" Karube panted. He let out a sigh and grabbed the railing to help himself up.

Chishiya smirked. "This is a race. To win these games, you need to bet on the best horses. I may call in a favour one day. I'll ask for my favour once you're more accustomed to the Borderlands."

"Babe!" There you were. Hand in hand with Arisu as the two of you made your way to Chishiya and Karube. Arisu let go of your hand, rushing past Chishiya and towards Karube.

"Karube. Are you okay?" Arisu asked his friend. Karube leaned a little on Arisu. He was hurt.

"My name is Shuntaro Chishiya." Chishiya and Arisu locked eyes for a moment. Chishiya placed one hand in his pocket and the other wrapped around your waist.

"Shuntaro. This is Ryohei Arisu." Arisu looked between the two of you. He wasn't sure what to say or do, but he melted when you said his name. So he said a quiet, shy. "Hello."

Chishiya smirked. "She's right. You are cute." That had Arisu blushing like crazy. Karube looked between the three of you, because what on earth was going on? Why was there a couple standing in front of him, flirting with his best friend?

"Come, Darling. We need to get going." Chishiya told you as he took your chin between his fingers, getting you to look at him.

"Can't we take him back with us?" You asked hopefully.

Chishiya chuckled and shook his head. "Not yet, sweetness." That made you pout.

The two of you turned, ready to walk away.

"Wait!" Arisu and Karube both spoke.

"Where are you going?" Arisu asked curiously. A part of him wanted the two of you to stay longer.

"What do you two know about this place? You called it the Borderlands. Do you know if we can get home?" Karube questioned.

You and your boyfriend shared a look. You both turned back to look at the duo. You smiled sweetly and nodded at Chishiya.

"What do you think? As you can tell, we're in the future. We've likely been brought here by some futuristic entity. Or this could just be a bad dream. Perhaps when we die, we wake up from this nightmare. Or perhaps we've all gone crazy. Or this is an alien science experiment. Maybe virtual reality? I choose to believe a different theory. I think we've simply stumbled into something. Nowhere and no place in particular. A strange fantasy land we read about as children. That's why I decided I just need to become the protagonist. As long as I'm the main character, I'll find a way to get me and my girl home."

That left Arisu and Karube quiet for a moment. You looked up at your boyfriend and shook your head. "You really went through all the theories, didn't you?" You asked him, causing him to shrug at you. "Wait, if you're the main character, does that make me the love interest? The damsel in distress? Female lead?" That just made him smirk at you.

"And what exactly does that role entail?" Karube asked as he took a step forward.

"Sorry, information isn't free." Chishiya put his hood up. "But I can give you a hint. Even as the world sleeps, radio lives on. I recommend the taxi driver channels." Chishiya began to walk away, and he paused, noticing you weren't following.

You turned to look at Arisu. You walked over to the male and took his hands in yours. "I hope we meet again soon. Come find us, Arisu. Just know that if I see you out and about on the streets or in a game, I'll be bringing you home. But for now, sadly, we need to wait." You explained to him.

Arisu frowned in confusion. "What do you mean? Where are you going?" What was going on with him? Why did he feel the need to keep you and Chishiya around longer?

You gently took his cheeks in your hands. "Don't be sad, pet. You'll see us again. Just find a radio and come find us. We can't make it too easy now, can we? You're smart, Arisu. Just know, we'll be waiting for you." You placed a kiss on his cheek before making your way to Chishiya. Chishiya wrapped an arm around your waist. You both looked at Arisu and Karube.

"See you two around. Take care, cutie." And with that, you and Chishiya walked away. The two of you walked towards where the body of the tagger was. Chishiya reached into the tagger's pocket and pulled out some cards and a piece of paper. He then turned to you, pulling out a handful of cards.

"Six cards from eight players. Not the best haul. But we're one step closer to leaving." He told you as he shoved the paper and cards in his pocket. He held you close as the two of you walked back to the beach.

A small sigh left your lips. "So. What did you think?" You asked him curiously as the two of you walked down the street.

"I think you might be onto something. If he can find the beach or if we encounter him again, then we'll see about taking him for ourselves. You were right, though, Sweetheart. He's smart, adorable, and he seemed to be on the more...submissive side. Easily flustered, too. I think you may have found our perfect match."

The two of you shared a passionate kiss before continuing your walk to the beach, both ready for what the future may hold. Especially if that future involves Arisu.

I Think They Call This Love

Choi Su-bong 'Thanos' x reader

(Hi everyone. I decided to switch things up a little and decided to try my hand with a Squid Game fic. I got the idea for this whilst making an oc and listening to the song 'I think they call this love.' It's been stuck in my head. So Thanos is probs gonna be out of character in this. Idk, it seems to be a pattern with me. Oh well. Please enjoy.)

Trigger warnings: Cursing, hints towards Su-bong's unaliving attempt. Though those words are never actually said.

Taglist. Masterlist. Progress Update.

Summary: Subong asks you to dance to cheer you up after a game.

You were tired. So incredibly tired. The second game had finished. Your hands couldn't seem to stop shaking. Even though it was over, you could still hear the gunshots, you could still feel the fear of playing, of messing up lingering in you. Your fiance, Su-bong or 'Thanos' as he was known, was sitting on your right. One of his hands held yours, his thumb gently stroking your knuckle. He was coming down from his high, which also helped to sooth you a little.

On your left was Se-mi. The two of you had been chatting since she had joined the group for the game, bringing Min-su with her. Though the way you two spoke to each other, it was like you had been friends for your whole lives, rather than just a few hours. There was something about her that helped you to feel at ease, even just a little bit. You thought that was why Su-bong was so chill with her. Why he shot down Nam-gyu whenever he tried to start an argument with her. Min-su was sitting to the side on one of the platforms, trying to ignore the glare from Nam-gyu.

You had just finished telling Se-mi about your plans for after the games. Telling her how you and Su-bong had met at school when he literally ran into you. It had been an accident, how he had helped you up and how you both locked eyes. 'Hello' you both had said at the same time but it was the beginning of everything. That you had grown together. He had seen you at your lowest points, held you as you cried. Always knew what to get when you were on your period. How he learnt to do different hair styles because he was doing your hair relaxed, you both. It scratched an itch inside of Su-bong. She learnt about how you had stood by Thanos through his rap career, encouraged him. How you were his muse and were even featured on a couple of songs. You told her how once the games are done, you wanted to marry the love of your life. How you wanted a nice house, from him to stop the drugs, keep growing as a rapper. How you wanted kids and maybe a dog. And possibly a cat too.

Things weren't always good though. When He had met Nam-gyu, it was when a shift happened. Sure, he had done weed occasionally. But then he began to do more, the pills appeared and it was like he had changed. You still saw Su-bong. When he was sober. When he held you at night. When he kissed you sweetly and told you he loves you. When you'd sit in his lap as he wrote his next song, he claimed you had to be there because 'you inspire me, sweetness.' Some of the best moments were when you cooked together. It didn't matter who knew how to cook a basic meal and who could burn water. What mattered was how well you worked together. How cooking together always had you covered in flour, and Su-bong trying to sneak samples of the food when your back was turned. How he'd wrap his arms around your waist and hold you close.

But of course, when Su-bong wasn't there, Thanos was. Thanos was mean. High all the time. The arguments with him were raw and hurtful. You both were guilty of saying harsh and cruel things. He'd be out late, leaving you to worry at home. He'd beg you to come to a club. And party girl or not, not every second had to be spent in a club. Sometimes it was nice having a quiet night in. Thanos spent money like it grew on trees. He sometimes made bad investment calls. Despite you saying not to. That's when the debt happened. Because he listened to some stupid idiot on the internet to invest in some stupid MG Coin scam.

The debt was what brought you both here. You had tried to sell your ring but Su-bong wouldn't let you. He couldn't let you do that. You had been there on the bridge with him. Trying to coax him down. Claims of 'We'll work this out.' and declarations of love. 'I love you, please don't do this. You're not a failure.' had him back in your arms. And then a man approached you both with the offer of playing a game.

"Baby." You hear from your right. You turn your head to look at Su-bong. You smiled softly at him, though he could see it didn't reach your pretty eyes. He couldn't have that. He couldn't watch you slowly break apart in front of him. Not you. He needed to bring you some joy. Just for a moment. He jumped up and placed his bread down. He plucked yours from your hand and set it beside his. He then held a hand out to you. "Dance with me?"

Dancing together was always fun. From an intimate space in the privacy of your living room, to a full head bopping, head spinning, arms moving, heartbeat racing dance in the club. Dancing together was always perfect. "There's no music." You pouted as you looked up at him.

'I'll make the music, Come on Senorita. Dance with me." You looked at Se-mi. "Watch my bread." And with that you slipped your hand in his. Su-bong gently pulled you up and walked you a little away from your group so you had space to move. "Are you sure about you?" You asked him curiously. Su-bong gave you a look, you knew that look. Of course he sure. He always was when it came to you. He placed a hand on your waist and pulled your body against his. Your free hand laid on his chest, as did your head. The sound of his heartbeat meeting your ear. His heartbeat was your favorite side. His voice being a close second. His heartbeat could sooth you, send you to sleep.

"They say you know when you know. So let's face it, you had me at hello."

He was singing. Like singing not rapping. It was something he did only for you. Normally, when you danced together or he held you in his arms in bed.

"Hesitation never helps. How could this be anything, anything else? When -"

The two of you swayed there together. Wrapped up in each other's warm. Like the world around you had frozen or melted away.

"All I dream of is your eyes. All I long for is your touch. And darling, something tells me that's enough, mmm."

Su-Bong lived for the moments like these. He felt so guilty. If he had been smarter, maybe he wouldn't be in debt. Maybe you two wouldn't be standing in a room with hundreds of people, trying to survive. One more game. That's what he kept telling himself. Just one more game and you could both go home. But maybe it was too late for that. You had voted X, he voted O. Just one more game and you could go home. He had to get you home. You didn't deserve the horrors of this place. A place he had forced you to stay. One more game and then he'll press X. It was a promise to you, to himself.

"You can say that I'm a fool. And I don't know very much, but I Think They Call This Love."

Su-bong smiled at you and gently pulled away before he spun you out and then back into his arms. He grinned hearing you giggle. Hearing you forget where you were, that you had eyes watching you both.

"One smile, one kiss, two lonely hearts is all that it takes. Now baby, you're on my mind, every night, every day. Good vibrations getting loud. How could this be anything, anything else?"

The purple-haired man dipped you and you locked eyes for a moment. He could see it. The smile on your face had reached your eyes.

"When. All I dream of is your eyes. All I long for is your touch. And darling, something tells me that's enough, mmm You can say that I'm a fool And I don't know very much, but I Think They Call This Love. Oh, I Think They Call This Love."

He leaned down, gently pressing his lips against yours in a soft, passionate kiss that held so many promises. 'I love you.' 'I'm getting you out of here.' 'I'll give you the future you deserve.' 'I'll be better.'

He pulled you back up before spinning you around the room.

"What could this be Between you and me? Oh"

You let out a laugh as you spun around the room, being twirled. He smiled brightly as he hugged you back into his chest. You swayed together. The world slowly came back to you, but it still felt miles away.

"Oh, all I dream of is your eyes. All I long for is your touch. And darlin', something tells me, tells me it's enough, mmm. You can say that I'm a fool. And I don't know very much. But I think they call- Oh, I think they call- Yes, I Think They Call This Love."

Su-bong closed his eyes for a moment as he held you close. His chin is resting on the top of your head. He wasn't going to let anyone take you from him. He'd protect you for one more game. One more and then he'd promise to press X. To take you home. To keep you safe. To let you invite Se-mi over as much as you wanted. He just wanted you to keep that light in your eyes. To keep that smile. So he stayed there for a little while longer. With his beloved in his arms, pretending you were both in your living room, dancing together. As long as you kept the smile in your eyes, then he hadn't failed. There was still time to continue your life together.

"This love"

Summary: Niragi protects his loves when someone breaks into your room.

Niragi was always ready for a fight. It's why he kept his gun close. It's why he kept it next to his side of the bed when he slept. Everyone knew not to mess with him. People tried and they either ended up dead or wishing they were. Niragi could be scary when he wanted to and he took pride in that. So why did this one guy think he could do as he pleased?

It all started when a few new people came to the Beach. One of these people ended up joining the militants. The guy got a gun in his hands and he suddenly thought he was the top dog. He flirted with anyone with a pulse. He threatened people and acted like everything was about him. So when his eyes landed on you during a girl's night with Kuina, he had to have you. Niragi and Chishiya had been off doing their own thing.

You had rejected the man. Of course, you had. You were dating Chishiya and Niragi. Now, everyone knew you were with the two, they didn't know about the guys dating. Most people thought it was just a sexual relationship you had with the two. It wasn't, but that wasn't anyone else's business. Kuina knew she was your best friend and she had walked into your room one morning to show you a new bikini she found, only to be met with the three of you wrapped up in each other's arms. "I ship it." She had squealed excitedly. Kuina had promised not to tell anyone, but she wanted all the gossip.

The man didn't take your rejection well. Nor did he take your other rejections. He cornered you. Grabbing your hand, touching your cheek, pulling on your waist. It was uncomfortable and intimidating, but Kuina had managed to distract him by calling your name. It gave you a moment to breathe, you stomped on his foot and escaped.

"You should tell them." Kuina had told you. The guy was scary, making moves when you weren't interested. He made Niragi look like a saint and that made him more terrifying.

"I don't want to worry them." You had told Kuina as she walked with you back to your room. "They'll worry more if you don't tell them." Kuina was right, she was always right. So the two of you walked into your room, where Niragi was sitting on the bed, questioning Chishiya about why exactly he needed tape, a lighter and some wires. However, their attention went to you and Kuina and immediately they knew something was wrong.

As you told the two what had happened, Niragi pulled you onto his lap, playing with your hair. Kuina explained who the guy was, Chishiya sucked in a breath and it took all of Niragi's strength not to tighten his grip on your hair. He knew exactly who you two had been talking about. It was the same guy he had beaten after he caught him shoving a gun in Chishiya's face before pushing him with said gun. The guy left a bad taste in Niragi's mouth. He made a silent promise to keep you both safe from him.

"Are you okay?" You had zoned out for a moment, but the voice of one of your boys brought you back. You nodded, hesitantly. "I think so?" It came out more like a question than an answer. "I just- I didn't know what to do. I completely froze. If Kuina hadn't-" You let out a choked sob. Niragi held you close. He tucked your head under his chin, resting on his chest. Chishiya reached a hand out to grab yours. His thumb danced over your knuckles

Kuina eventually left, giving you a hug before doing so. This left you alone with your boys. You stood up and looked between the two. Niragi was silently plotting his next moves, Chishiya's eyes had been looking you over since he heard about what happened. Like if he looked away, you'd vanish. All of a sudden Niragi got up and reached for his gun.

"Niragi."

"Stop."

You made your way to Niragi, placing a hand on his arm as Chishiya straightened up. Niragi looked at the two of you. Why were you stopping him?

"Why? Clearly, a beating isn't enough for this dick. First, he goes after you." He hissed out as he stepped towards the blonde, cupping his cheeks. "He shoved a gun in your face and then hit you with it. I should have shot him then and there. But I didn't and he went on to try to touch our girl." He turned to look at you, removing one hand from Chishiya. He took your hand in his. "I won't make the same mistake again."

Chishiya let out a small sigh as he leaned into Niragi's touch. "Let it go for the night. She needs you here." He stated. He took a breath before letting out a quiet "I need you here." That pulled at Niragi's heart. You both needed him to be here. "Okay." He nodded. A part of him felt calm. His thumb gently stroked Chishiya's cheek, and his other hand squeezed yours with a softness that only the two of you got to see from Niragi.

--

"Let's go to bed." Niragi walked over to his side of the bed. He sat down, and Chishiya looked at you before getting onto the bed. The space in the middle of them was meant for you. "I'm gonna to the bathroom. I'll join you both in a moment." You turned and made your way to the bathroom. Chishiya and Niragi watched you go. Both of them plotting how to get rid of the bastard that dared to scare you.

Slowly, they moved their hands closer to each other, until their hands met in the middle. Both felt calmer, just a little. Both felt safe. All they needed now was for you to join them and be in their arm.

But it happened so fast. Neither realised what was happening until they heard you scream. You had just finished up in the bathroom. You did what you needed, washed your hands and were currently drying them. Then you opened to bathroom door, ready to join your loves. Only to find him there. When had he come into your room? How did he even know this was your room? You let out a fearful scream seeing the knife in his hand. His free hand shot out, wrapping around your neck. He pushed you against the wall, and the bathroom door slammed shut. "Shh, just be a good girl for me. I won't have to hurt you if you just behave." His voice was dark. It held no mercy. Hell, he had a sick sense of joy in his tone.

The door to the bathroom burst open. There stood Niragi, gun in hand. Chishiya stood slightly behind him in the doorway. His taser in hand, ready to be used. "Let her go, now." Niragi growled. He wasn't asking. The hand on your throat loosened for a second before tightening again. Your chest felt heavy, it was like you forgot how to breathe.

Niragi stepped deeper into the bathroom. "I won't tell you again. Get off of her." He noticed the blonde moving to his side. Both were ready to fight if need be. The two looked at each other for a mere moment. Eyes locked. He knew that look. The cat had a plan. Niragi got his attention on him. Chishiya's movement was slow. Almost unnoticeable and just as he was about to shock him with the taser, Chishiya's wrist was grabbed, the taser falling to the floor. Shit.

"You think I'm stupid, pretty boy?" His grip tightened on your throat, and his nails dug into Chishiya's wrist. "Yeah, I do." That made the man freeze in confusion. And then, a loud sound filled the room and he was in pain. His grip loosened and he fell onto the cold tile floor. You took in a breath as Chishiya made his way to you. He looked you over. "Come on." He walked you to the bathroom door.

Another shot rang through the room. "Don't look back." So you didn't, you focused on Chishiya as he walked you to the bed and began to check your neck.

Meanwhile, Niragi held no punches. He shot the man, making sure to make his suffering last. His screams and begs made Niragi grin. A twisted grin. He had missed this feeling. He squatted down next to the man. "You already had your chance and you blew it." He told him, in a mocking tone, taunting the man. Niragi beat the man black and blue. "This is what happens when you touch what's mine." Then he put a final bullet in his head.

Niragi let the feeling flood through him before he turned around and left the bathroom. He closed the door after him. He walked over to you both. He gently hands the fingers of his right hand through your hair, the fingers of his left through Chishiya's. "Pack what you need. We're moving to my room. No one will touch either of you if you're there." There was no room for arguments, but both of you stayed there for a moment.

Niragi knelt down in front of you. His eyes darkened seeing your throat bruised. He looked at Chishiya's wrist, which was starting to bruise as well. "Are you both okay?" He asked. Chishiya nodded cooly. You took a moment before shaking your head. You launched yourself into their arms, and both men held you and each other close. "Thank you."

Niragi made a slient promise. No one was going to hurt either of you ever again. Not on his watch. No one was getting any chances. No one crossed Suguru Niragi and got to live.
