TOH
Toh sighed quietly in his head. It is during occasions like this where he wishes he could be a brute and do whatever he wanted. But how could he possibly resort to behaving like the very people he criticised? It just wouldn't work. Besides, if he acts that way, he won't be any better than Nagawa Sano. The ex that has left so many mental scars.
Besides, even if he doesn't touch her. He finds that Sumire takes the initiative to do so on her own.
"I don't mind you attending the party with me, Toh. Since I did need a partner."
"But-?" Toh said knowingly.
Sumire frowned and sighed. "I don't like what I have to become when I'm there."
Toh immediately understood. She has to put on a mask, a facade so she can deceive her enemies. A mask that involves sacrificing herself.
"I don't mind."
"But, I'll have to-"
"Act like a seductress? Treat me as your plaything?" Toh guessed.
Sumire sighed and nodded. "Mm."
"I wouldn't mind seeing that side of you." Toh chuckled. "I wonder what you'd act like when you seduce me."
Her attempts to attack him earlier failed after all.
"This is different, this will be for work."
"Regardless it's you seducing me."
Sumire bit her lip and whispered in his ear. Toh blinked surprised but already he was getting all sorts of images in his head.
"Ah. Now that will be a sight to behold."
"Don't tease me." Sumire stammered. "I'll be acting but afterwards-"
She will be a blushing mess. He can't wait to see that. Toh placed a light kiss on her forehead. "I understand. Your in control, you always will be."
Sumire nodded and moved away from him. She left the room briefly before returning with a brown envelope in her hands. "These are the details for the job tonight."
Toh quickly read through the documents. "So, we simply have to get the data and go?"
"Our act is a married French couple." Sumire trailed off. "You do know French right?"
His lips curve to a smile as he brought his lips to her ear and whispered a few seductive words in french. Sumire's face heats up and he laughs.
"I-I suppose that will pass." Sumire coughed. "Do we have any blonde wigs or anything?"
"Sure, I have just the thing. But before then, can I get a picture of you wearing this? You look divine."
Sumire blushed and laughed softly. "Mm, but can you be in the photo too?"
Toh agreed and took his phone out. He was debating about a position, when Sumire propped herself onto his lap. He raised his eyebrow but chuckled as he lightly nibbled on her ear, causing a soft moan to escape her lips.
"This is truly nice beautiful."
Sumire caressed his cheeks. "It is nice, and I am happy."
For a moment he doesn't know what to say. This is the first time he is seeing her like this. Even after months of knowing her, she still finds a way to surprise him. After taking the photo, Toh picked her up and carried her upstairs to the bedroom.
Sumire didn't speak until he placed her on the bed, and was tugging the dress from her. "Were doing it?" Sumire asked innocently.
Toh chuckled. "No, we are going to relax, watch a movie and cuddle before we get disturbed."
Sumire laughed. "Unn. I did ask Ru to come over today."
'If Tsueno is coming over, maybe I can ask for some details regarding Hanzo. If it's not someone Sumire is close with. I can still go through with the mission.'
Or can he? He wonders since when did he no longer want to do missions like that. No longer want to use his powers for harming.
Toh quickly helped her out of the dress and slip on more comfortable clothes. Once they were both comfortable, he switched on the Tv. Sumire snuggled into his embrace and for the next few minutes neither of them said a word. Content, happiness. He truly felt that way whenever he was with her. How can a single moment be so perfect? Toh tucks away stray strands of her hair behind her ear and gently ran his hands down her arm, soothing and gentle strokes.
This would be a good opportunity for him to ask whether or not she is close to Hanazo Tooru. However, if he were to casually ask her this and something bad ends up happening to the kid much later on. The suspicion will fall on him.
"Ru is coming over, but your going to stay right Toh?"
Toh paused. It seems she has noticed that he tends to leave the room or the house when Tsueno comes over.
"If that is what you want beautiful."
That's all that matters to him. Her needs.
"I don't want you to act weird around Ru. It-it's uh true that he has feelings for me. But-"
Toh interrupts her by kissing her lips. "That's not it. I just know that Tsueno's situation is complicated right now. I figured it would be best for you to spend some time with him."
Sumire sighed deeply. "Your such a good guy Toh, but you don't have to do that. Ru was asking the other day if our relationship is still okay."
He nibbled on her ear and she moaned softly. "More than okay. Maybe you should report exactly how well we get on with each other."
Sumire turned red. "Prick."
"The reason Tsueno asked that question, surely you understand why?"
"I do." Sumire mumbled. "But it's okay, I really do care about you Toh. I won't trade this moment for anything else in the world."
His gaze softened hearing her words. This is the main reason why he controls his desires. He doesn't want to become a monster and ruin her impression of him. If he acts on his desires, Toh knew that Sumire would no longer look at him the same way, never treat him the same way.
