Hinue looked at the 7 men sitting across from her to be more specific her bodyguards
Since her father has recently involved himself in the underbelly of Japan he's made quite a lot of dangerous enemies
So just as a precaution why not get some bodyguards for his sickly young daughter
Oh so weak, that she couldn't even hurt a fly, Sigh it's not that she's even upset she learnt a long time ago that her immune system shackled her
Living with 7 strange men who could kill her without lifting a finger was uncomfortable but at least they were paid quite a hefty sum, to say the least, monitor her
She was relatively unknown but her family cared enough to make sure she won't die even though they haven't visited her in over a year
She can't complain she doesn't have to work for anything just laze around and wait to get married off
All in all a cushy life
But 7 burly men dad that's a bit overboard
She looked up at the man who she assumes is in charge of the little group of giants
"Ushijima san will all of you be staying here or are their other arrangements" The biggest of them all looked at her
"Separate living arrangements have been prepared however at least 2 of us will remain here at all times"
"Is that so, well then lunch will be served at 2, till then make yourselves comfortable" Hinue looked at him expecting something in return but she was met with silence
"Alright then if you'll excuse me, if you need anything I will be in the kitchen" either that or the grocery store
It's highly doubtful she has enough groceries to feed 7 adult males
5 minutes later
Well shit
Other than instant ramen she doesn't have enough of anything to make a large meal
Grocery shopping it is
Is her new protection squad supposed to tag along or can she just go on her own hopefully the latter
Hinue went back to the lounge in search of intimidating men unfortunately she found one of the not so rare species
He was tall like all of them but he had an unruly set of black hair "Excuse me sir" he turned around and it seemed as if he was looking right through her
"Yes Ojou Sama" Hinue sighed but she still had to do this
"I need to go grocery shopping so I need someone to accompany me" a devilish smile appeared on his face
"Your wish is my command" sigh "can we leave in 5 minutes?"
"Sure" Hinue turned around and grabbed her wallet and car keys from the living room cabinet
She left the house and waited for Kuroo she thinks that was his name and the mystery man
She was standing next to her car when both men appeared Kuroo and the grey twin
"Unfortunately we can't use your car" huh
"What why"
"In case of an emergency that car isn't going to help us escape" of course I'm going to get attacked while going to the grocery store
Sigh "alright" we sat in their car instead it was an as inconspicuous black car
Kuroo was in the driver's seat while the grey-haired one sat in the back with her
Sitting next to him she could really feel the stark difference in stature between them
The car ride was silent and rather awkward, Hinue sighed and just gazed out of the car wishing for it to end
. . . .
Hinue walked through the grocery store throwing an armies rations worth of groceries in her cart
Only picking up one carton of eggs had led to a rather scrutinizing gaze from one of her bodyguards
He had been rather helpful, helping her out with the groceries what to get and what not to what his little friends like
It'll help her earn some brownie points and help her life not be so disgustingly awkward
Why can't she just go back to her solitary lifestyle
. . . .
"Osamu san can you please inform your companions that lunch is ready" Osamu san as she's come to know him
Is a rather gruff person with a passion for cooking and breaking people's necks
Hinue quickly got to setting up the dining table although now that she thinks about it, it's rather small for her company
She'll have to ask dad to buy a new one
. . . .
The silence was defeating
She could hear nothing but the clatter of the utensils all she wanted to do was lie in her bed and sleep
Not sit here and be the centre of attention of terrifying men who could crush her skull between their thumb and pinky
What a shame the delicious meal she had painstakingly made tasted like ash in her mouth
Bokuto san a rather interesting-looking individual who was intensely staring at her finally decided to speak up
"Um miss can I have seconds" that was all, all those years off of her life for some messily seconds
"Yes of course"
. . . .
? POV
They had been hired bought really to protect a sick little missy
A glorified babysitting job but hey he's not complaining it's practically a paid vacation he'll just have to suffer through the occasional hopefully not incessant whining
His first impression of her was was well that she was a pretty little thing, a petite girl possessing rather delicate beauty with eyes that consume you whole
It's not every day that he gets this poetic, a shame that she's his client otherwise he would just snatch her up who knows he might just shoot his shot
She's rather young but that's of little consequence, for him, morals were just a silly old thing of a past long gone
