บท 49: Chapter 46

Though Ekko wondered where Rangiku was, she should have been back by...

"IM BAAAAACK."

"Never mind." Ekko looked at the front door and saw Rangiku with bags full of scented candles and alcohol, lots and lots of alcohol.

Ekko didn't need to use his time powers to foresee how this night was going to go.

"KAMPAI"

{Chink}

Everyone Clicked their sake cups together before downing them in one go. Everyone Let out a satisfied sigh after.

" Damn this sake is good, you have to tell me where you got it from, Matsumoto-san." Masane said after drinking her cup.

" Oh, I have my connections, if you have time one of these days I'll show you the best joints around. Speaking of, where did you come from Masane-san."

" I'm actually from Kanazawa, Ishikawa, though I moved to Tokyo a few years back, hoping I could make it as a writer, well that's my dream anyway."

" Wow, Kanazawa huh that's pretty far away, I definitely want to visit in the future. Oh Let's dig in Im sure you'll love Ekko's cooking, he may look a bit intimidating But Ekko is a total softy." Rangiku said while not so secretly pointing at Ekko who was already Eating with Eris.

"Nyaaaaaa!!! This is so delicious, and what do you call this Ekko- Nya~" Eris asked.

"It's Called, pasta Alla Garcia and thats just regular Garlic bread, hey it's not going anywhere Eris, take your time."

{chough, chough}

Just as he warned her she started to cough and Ekko had to give her a quick pat on the back to bring her back.

"See what did I tell you." Ekko said as Rangiku and masane chuckled at their interaction."

"Sorry Ekko-kun I'll slow down, Nya," Eris said actually slowing down her pace though the food on the table was Finishing quickly.

After an hour of getting pleasantries out of the way, masane began to open up more and after Dinner and a couple of drinks, Rangiku decided they should liven things up a bit.

"Jaa! Jaaan, while I was out I decided to buy a few games, so let's play A classic, the king Game. Common who's up for it " Rangiku asked innocently but her thoughts were far from it, eying Ekko hungrily.

Ekko who was minding his own Business cleaning plates suddenly felt chills crawl up his spine. At first, he dident want to play but since it was a celebration he decided to just play and have some fun.

But since Ekko and Eris had never played before Rangiku explained the game to them.

" Here are the rules, there are four Straws in a cup, three being labelled numbers and a forth with a crown. Every one will pick a straw and the The one who picks the Kings straw can order the numbers to do whatever they want.

For example If the king Orders for Number one to Massage his shoulders or number two Eat a spoon of cinemon, you have to do it. The Kings Orders are absolute."

Once Ekko heard the rules he thought it sounded a lot like Truth or dare with just a few differences here and there.

"Oh and before we start, let's Ant up the stakes a bit, for every 5 rounds, we all have to take a shot, but for every Truth and Kings order you don't do you also have to take a shot." Everyone agreed so the game would officially begin.

"Hai hai!! Let's get this game started, are you guys Ready." Rangiku Cheered and the girls Cheered with her while Ekko gave a simple nod.

"Yep...Ready as ill ever be...Nya!!"

"That's the spirit, then here we go! One, two..."

"OUSAMA DARE DA?!."( Who's the king.) Everyone said in sync as they all took a straw out of an empty can.

Everyone had their poker faces on except for Eris who seemed to just be happy to be playing with everyone. Ekko looked at Eris And Rangiku but it didn't seem they had the Kings straw, so that could only mean...

" Haha!! Would you look at that, looks like I'm the King for the first Round." Masane said revealing her King's straw." Now, what should I order, mhhhh...Oh I know, Number one has to...sit on Number two's lap for two rounds."

Ekko looked at his Number, it was Number One, so that means he would have to sit on someone's lap.'Damn how embarrassing.'

" Yay, I'm Number two, but who's number one?" Eris asked looking around. Rangiku seemed to be depressed and Ekko just looked defeated.

But eventually, he put his hand Up And. Eris smiled and Let Ekko sit on her lap though the scene looked pretty funny as Ekko was a good few inches taller than her.

" Hahahaha!!!" Masane Laughed while Rangiku cursed not being Number one. Though she did secretly take a photo to send to Ruben later.

" Ha, ha, Laugh it up, let's do the next round Aleady," Ekko said impatiently.

"OUSAMA DARE DA."( Who's the king.)

Everyone looked at their straws and Ekko dident Receive the king straw for this Round Either.

No this Time It was Rangiku who got it.' Yes, haha, now I could order Ekko, but that's a one-in-three chance, and it's not easy to read his face either so I don't know which number he has, mhh!! I'll just save the more juicy orders for later.

" Looks like aim King This Time, Mhh, let's see I Order...

The game continued and as it did the Orders began to get more and more daring, Ekko didn't know If it was because of the alcohol or if everyone was just too into the game but they were already On their forty fith round. Ekko had drunk Nine shots, Rangiku 10, masane 12, and Eris 9.

Rangiku looked disheveled and had at some point put on a jumper but wore it Backwards for an Order, Eris Had all kinds of scribbles on her face.

Ekko's Hair was Tied Up Into a Twin Tail style and at some point, he had lost his shirt and finally, Masane wasn't wearing any pants only Boxer's. Ekkos boxers to be more specific.

"OUSAMA DARE DA."( Who's the king.)

Everyone Took Out the staws, with Reddened cheeks, and for this Round, It Looks like Rangiku Received the Kings Straw.

She looked Drunk, but was actually only tipsy, she could probably handle a few more drinks before Passing Out.

Rangiku knew It was finally time for her master plan so with a sinister Smirk she said" Hahaha, looks like I'm the King, *Hic* And the king Orders Number three...has to Kiss your three favorite body parts On my Body."

What no one knew was that She had arranged the straws in a manner that Ekko would choose Number three. And it seems as if it had worked as Ekko was Number three.

But the question is should he do it, if they were alone Ekko wouldn't hesitate but there were two other people there.

But in the end, he didn't want to chicken out so he decided to do it.

" I'm Number Three, Let's do this then." Ekko said aprochroching Rangiku. Masane And Eris Looked on in embarrassment and interest, they wondered which parts of Rangiku Ekko would Kiss.
