part 41

People are friendly towards Anna too, her elegant cat look is very popular. Both iku and Anna get a lot of pictures taken with the employees, and that eases the employees up about iku, somewhat confirming that she’s not gonna kill them. iku wants to take an image with Adam, but he is actively trying to be not near iku, as he’s still isn’t 100% convinced that iku won’t go ape shit.

The night goes by, and iku gets a little tipsy, just a tiny bit. Eventually everyone leaves, and iku is in the locker room, she’s still in her fit, but Anna has already changed back, Anna is going to crash in iku’s hotel again, she leaves and says good night.

iku figures that she should probably start changing too. She gets her necktie off, and removes her pasties. But after that she just stares into the mirror, she is checking herself out, but it also bothers her that she didn’t get to do much with Adam. So she goes back into the bar, and texts him.

iku💛 <(“u still up?“)
Adam <(“yeah”)
iku💛 <(“wanna have some drinks? i haven’t closed the bar yet”)
Adam <(“sure, i didn’t get to do much drinking anyways”)
iku💛 <(“i’ll be waiting for u”)

iku gets up from the bench she was sitting on in the locker room and heads down to the bar, no, she didn’t put the pasties back on nor the necktie. Not really because she wants to flash him, her clothes are already revealing enough, she is just that tired and the light drinks hit her a bit.

She plops down in the middle of the bar, and fogs up the windows trough her phone. Adams shortly comes in, he’s also changed back to more comfortable clothes.

iku: (“Siddown, siddown, I’ve got some drinks here.”)

iku pats the leather sofa that’s next to her. Adam sits down, but he keeps some distance. iku pours some champaign out. After she’s done, she pulls in Adam and puts her right hand on his shoulder.

iku: (“Come on dude, don’t be so stiff.”)

iku takes a sip.

iku: (“I didn’t even get to take a pic with you. I really wanted to take one yknow, out of everyone I was looking forward to you the most.“)

Adam: (“Oh, I’m sorry.”)

iku: (“It’s whatever, you’re here, we can take one now.”)

iku takes her shades off and puts it on the table. Adam gets scared, but he can’t run away.

iku: (“Be honest with me Adam, were you avoiding me?“)

Adam: (“… Ye-ah, I was…”)

iku strengthens her grip on him.

iku: (“Why?”)

iku: (“Is it the suit?“)

Adam: (“Yes, it is the suit.”)

iku: (“Yknow, I thought you’d like it.“)

Adam: (“I do like it, that’s not it, I just… I just think I shouldn’t be looking or thinking of my Boss like that.. yknow..”)

iku: (“Like what Adam?.. Thinking of me like what?“)

Adam: (“I’m sorry… Please..”)

iku grabs his face and smooches it on his cheek. Adam gets pretty flustered and looks iku in the eye out of reaction. Their eyes meet, something that didn’t happen without her shades on.

iku: (“It’s fine. I don’t mind when it’s you looking.”)

iku pats his head.

iku: (“Come on, let’s take some pics.”)

iku takes some pics with Adam in cute poses. And the night goes on as the two drink. After a while Adam forgets about the whole thing and has a lot of fun with iku. When it’s all over iku goes to bed and so does Adam, but before sleeping he decides to look at the images that iku took, that’s when he noticed iku’s discoloration. Needless to say he is not showing those images to anyone. Suddenly he gets a message.

iku💛 <(“i just noticed i didn’t have my pasties on”)
iku💛 <(“you don’t need to delete the images, keep em”)
iku💛 <(“but they’re for your eyes only. got it? <3”)
Adam <(“yes boss”)
iku💛 <(”… still calling me boss, you’re adorable <3”)

Adam doesn’t reply, he figures that iku is very drunk at this point, she was never this bold with him. He doesn’t wanna think that she has a crush on him, since he’s afraid that iku is pulling something on him or that she is just very drunk.
