"Just A Side Character" [ TokRev x F.reader ]

[7] Calm after the storm

—

August 10th

A week has passed after the big brawl of August 3rd. Mitsuya had invited me out, and of course I couldn't resist. Stupid Y/n, where did the 'no more interacting with the main characters' mindset go?!

"Do you think it's okay if I can visit Draken-san later?" I said, concern etching on my face.

Mitsuya nodded. "I think that's a great idea. I'm sure Draken's been worrying about you too since you guys were also involved" He gave me a small smile. I nodded in response.

As we walked through the bustling streets of downtown Tokyo, I couldn't help but notice Mitsuya's tall stature and lean build. His short, silver lilac hair, blew gently in the breeze as we walked. I looked down at my own shorter frame and slender legs, feeling a little self-conscious. We turned a corner and stepped into the bright, open space of a park. "You know, Mitsuya-san," I said, looking up at him, "You're way taller than me"

Mitsuya chuckled, looking down at me with a amused glint in his eyes. "Yeah, I guess you're right. I've always been on the taller side, but it's not like I'm a giant or anything like Draken. You're just on the shorter side, Aomori"

I rolled my eyes at him, trying to hide my slight irritation. "You don't have to rub it in, Mitsuya-san. I'm well aware that I'm vertically challenged"

He chuckled again, shaking his head in amusement. "I didn't mean it like that, Aomori. I just meant that it's pretty obvious that I'm taller than you. But hey, it's not a bad thing. You're just fun-sized"

I gave him a scowl, feeling my irritation grow. "Fun-sized? Seriously, Mitsuya-san? That's like the most condescending thing you could say to a short person" I hit him lightly.

He shrugged, still smirking. "Hey, I've heard people use that term in a positive way, you know. Like, 'fun-sized' as in easy to carry around and stuff" I huffed, walking ahead of him. "I'm going to visit Draken-san!"

Mitsuya laughed, following after me. "Hey, wait up! I was just kidding, Aomori. I didn't mean to offend you. Come on, let's go see Draken together" Hmp, definitely different from what happened in the anime.

We walked down through the streets, eventually arriving at the hospital Draken was staying at. As we went in, Mitusya asked for Draken's room number, and we took off.

Mitsuya and I made our way through the hospital, navigating the maze of hallways and signs until we found the right room number. He knocked softly before opening the door, revealing Draken, sitting on the hospital bed, looking out the window until he heard the door opening. "Yo, Draken"

Draken turned to us, a small smile spreading across his face. "Hey guys, glad to see you both. How's everything going?"

I gave him a small smile, feeling a mixture of relief and sadness. "We're doing fine, Draken-san. Mitsuya and I just came to check up on you. How are you feeling?"

He shrugged, a slight wince of pain crossing his face. "Been better, that's for sure. But hey, at least I'm alive, right?"

Mitsuya nodded, a serious expression on his face. "You gave us a real scare, Draken. We were all worried about you"

Draken chuckled softly, shaking his head. "Nah, you know I'm too stubborn to die that easily. It'll take a lot more than that to take me out" Both me and Mitsuya took a seat. "Hey, Aomori-chan. Thanks for saving Mitsuya as well. I heard from Mitsuya you had saved him from being stabbed as well" I flushed for a moment, trying to hide my embarrassment. "N-no need to thank me! You guys keep on giving me credit when it's you guys who did the work"
