《VENOM||Bonten》C H A P T E R - 33

3 days have passed since Ran,Rin and I stayed in this hideout to look after Sanzu.He is definetly taking his time to rest and I don't blame him.
I didn't get too much sleep while he was absent either,so,with the help of the brothers,I am able to rest too.They always assure me that Sanzu is ok and I can sleep peacefully.Mochi went back to the main mansion yesterday since he was called for a new mission that Mikey had assigned him,which left me and the trio alone in the house.Actually only me and the brothers,since Sanzu is sleeping.
I was sleeping,my head on Rindou's lap as he played with my hair,when I felt someone kissing my cheeks repeatedly.Rindou wouldn't do that,so the culript is Ran.I slightly groaned and rubbed my eyes.
"Jesus,Ran.You woke her up."Rin groaned and I chuckled,getting up.Ran just smiled at me.
"Well good morning,love."He said with a smile and I smiled back.
"Mornin'"I tiredly said.I closed my eyes and rested my head on Ran's shoulder.He wrapped his hands around me and kissed the top of my head.If there is a thing that I've learned about Ran,that is that the man is flirty.Very flirty.I don't mind it tho.He was wearing a white hoodie with black baggy pants and Rin was dressed in a black shirt and white trousers.It is morning,so they probably have just woken up too.
Now how the hell did I fell asleep on the couch,you may ask?Well,yesterday night,I was in the modd of watching a movie,so I proposed that to the brothers,but to my and Rin's surprise,Ran denied politely,saying that he was going to sleep because he was tired after looking for Sanzu all day long.And yeah,I don't blame him.But that left only me and Rindou alone,in the living room.We started watching the movie,and somehwere in the middle of it,I was yawning continuously,so Rin asked me if I am sleepy.I just shrugged,so he smiled in return and asked me if we want to cuddle.I am never ever gonna refuse cuddles,so of course I accepted and I fell asleep.Apparently we both did,given the fact that Rin was still there in the morning.

"How is Sanzu?"I asked and yawned.
Ran caressed my back."Still sleeping."I nodded and yawned again.
"Are you hungry?"I heard Rin ask.
"A little."I answered softly and looked at him.He smiled and got up from the couch,going to the kitchen,probably to make something for us to eat.
"This is not fair,Rin.Why are you only asking Y/n if she is hungry,but not me?"Ran complained like a baby.Rin didn't answer,but I saw him shake his head as he took some ingredients out of the fridge.
I chuckled and I think that grabbed Ran's attention since he looked down at me with a lazy smile."Did I tell you I love you?"He suddenly asked.
I nodded."Mhm...You don't tryna hide it at all."I yawned and hugged him,closing my eyes.He kissed my forehead.
"Are you still tired?"I nodded."Even after you slept for so long?"I nodded again and snuggled into his chest."Ill wake you up when breakfast's ready."He whispered and played with my hair.That made me fall asleep quickly.
But after what felt like seconds,I was woken up again.Someone,which I assumed was Ran,played with my cheeks,squishing them repeatedly.I groaned and slowly opened my eyes,and I was indeed right:Ran is that 'someone'.
He smiled at me."Breakfast's ready,gorgeous."He flirted and I tried to hold back my smile as I got up from the couch and went to the dining room.
Rin was there,with a white apron on.But the first thing that caught my eyes was what was under it.Shit.He was shirtless.
"Oh my god,Rin!You are making Y/n blush!"Ran gasped dramatically and covered my eyes with both his hands.
The hell.Am I really blushing?No,this can't be possible.Im not the type to blush at some abs-But he is hot tho.
"Shut up,brother."I heard Rin scoff."And sorry,Y/n,that wasn't my intention.Is just that I got very hot in the kitchen while cooking.Ill put something on if you are feeling uncomfortable."
Ran removed his hands from my eyes and I smiled."I am not uncomfortable,Rin-kun.Dont worry."He smiled back and while he left to put a shirt on,he patted my head.

I saw Ran in the corner of my eye,watching our little interaction with an amusing look,arms crossed,his back was resting on one of the walls.He had a knowing smirk on his lips and an eyebrow raised teasingly.
I rolled my eyes playfully and turned to him,my arms crossed to my chest."What?Why are you having that look?"
He started walking towards me with the same look on his face.When he got in front of me,he kissed the corner of my lips and backed away,looking down at me."'That look'?"He quoted me."What look,dear?I don't know what you are talking about."He shrugged with the same face and walked away to the table,sitting down.
I sighed and rolled my eyes,sitting down.Rin came seconds after.He put back the shirt from before and smiled at me.
"Hope you liked what I cooked."
"Damn,this smells good."I mumbled.I heard the 2 brothers chuckle.
"Alright,alright.Lets eat so it won't get cold."Rin said,a soft smile on his face.We digged in and all I gotta say is that the food is fantastic.We ate and enjoyed the dishes in silence.After we were done,Ran got up first and took all the plates.
"Don't worry,I'm gonna do the dishes."He smiled at me and leaned down to kiss my head,then winked and went into the kitchen.I rolled my eyes playfully and I heard Rin chuckle while shaking his head.
"He is always like this."He mumbled with a smile.I smiled back."Hey,Y/n."He called and I looked at him,the smile still on my face.
"Yeah?"
"I know this is sudden and sounds like a weird request,but could you help me dye my hair?"He shyly asked."Given my position...I don't know how will the hairdressers react when they see me at the salon..."He looked down with slightly red cheeks and I smiled,nodding.
"I need to check up on Sanzu first,but I sure will help you."He looked up at me as I got up from my chair,smiling cutely.
I went into the room where Sanzu was currently sleeping in and I saw him laying on the bed,still unconscious.I sighed with a small smile and sat next to him.I removed the bangs from his face and stared at him.He is indeed beautiful.Now that I think about it,all the members from Bonten are handsome.
I stared at Sanzu one more time and left the room.I close the door softly.
"Rin is in the bathroom,waiting for ya"."Ran winked at me and I smiled,then went into the bathroom.He was still stuck on unpacking the box of hair dye.I chuckled.
"Give that to me."I said with a soft smile and he handed it to me with flushed cheeks.
Cutie.
"You haven't died your hair before?"I asked and he shook his head.
I moved in front of Rin and he had his arms awkwardly held behind him."Not by my myself.Sasha would do it most of the times."He answered as I started mixing up the substance.
"You two get along?"I asked,and he chuckled.
"Obviously it wasn't for free..."
"Well,that's typical for Sasha..."I mumbled and we both giggled."Alright...Now please bend down a little,since I can't really reach you."
"Am I too tall for you,Ms Kobayashi?"He smirked a little and leaned in,closer to my face.
I teasingly smiled."Well...Not really,but you are not too short either."He nodded and put his head on my shoulder.
"Start with the back of my head,please."He mumbled into the crook of my neck and I smiled,then started applying the mix on his hair.
This time,he didn't have his hands behind his back,but they were resting on the counter,trapping me in between them.I continued applying the mix while Rin would kiss my cheek from time to time.Of course he asked for permission first,since only Ran would kiss me without any warning.
After you were done,you smiled at Rin who was staring down at you."All done now,Rin."
"Thanks."He smiled.
"Now wait 10 to 15 minutes and then wash it off."You instructed and he nodded with a warm smile.
Before leaving,you got on your tippy toes and kissed his cheek.Rindou was left blushing,but he shook his head,the smile still on his face.
"I think I'm falling for her."

Enigma's Multiverse: Rewrite
This novel was rewritten with the following goals in mind: -A 'human' MC, that struggles underneath the weight of his past emotions and slowly grows as a person as he deals with past trauma and regret. A relatable protagonist whose actions are in line with his motivations, who may be amiable or ruthless depending on the stakes presented. (Caucasian male protagonist, set in the modern world with alien 'induction' into the cultivation world.) - Competent antagonists that have their own goals and ambitions, instead of always targeting the MC for plot convenience. - An original cultivation system. - Interesting and well fleshed out enemy archetypes. - Hell mode challenge right off the bat. - Lots of action and fighting with psychological elements. - My vision of what a cultivation novel should be like. This is the rewrite of the original Enigma's Multiverse, the first version reads more like a skeleton or a first draft as it was my very first work and I've come a long way since then. A lot of things from the original will be tweaked/enhanced, so it might just end up as a completely different work. Cover Credits- Instagram @just_anime_art_things
