Always Right [Akashi Seijuro x Reader]

Your (E/C) eyes bore into his heterochromic orbs, one blood red and the other a lightning yellow. You loathed him, at least you thought you did. He beat you in everything. Shogi, academics, sports... The list goes on and on. Yet you couldn't help but be drawn to him, like a moth to light. Couldn't help but try your best despite knowing you would not win, always getting second place next to him, who would be first, of course.

Your teeth clenched at the harsh reminder that you had not once beaten him at this game that he had somehow created. A very long and tiring game that could very well use some excitement. You weren't kidding when you said he beat you in everything, even in the recent bet that you had made. Which was the reason you were here, in the classroom after school had ended.

What you wouldn't give to lord your victory over him. To laugh right in his face. Then out of all the times, he decided to interrupt your wonderland.

"Thinking about me (Y/N)?" He teased, a smirk making his way onto his face.

"You wish!" You retort, cheeks stained a scarlet hue.

A smirk was his only response. It made your blood boil. You soon found your face turning a crimson shade, realising what he was thinking.
Clearing your throat, you decided to get this over with.

"So, you won the bet, what do you want?" You demanded.

"Blunt as always I see, didn't your parents teach you manners?" He backhanded your comment, finding pleasure at how impatient you were growing.

"According to the bet, the loser has to do whatever the winner asks of him, am I right (Y/N)?" He asks as if he needs a confirmation.

You fumed, like he needed you to agree, he was the one who made the stupid bet in the first place. It was just your luck to lose this one,
not that you've won any others though.

"Of course, since when were you the type to question yourself?" You replied through clenched teeth, "If I remember correctly, you were always one to say that you were always right?"

"You didn't remember wrongly, but it is because I AM always right, I was never wrong, never once (Y/N)" He replied, amusement coating his features.

"What do you want then, could you by any means hurry up?" You sighed, defeat clear in your voice. Tapping your foot on the ground, you waited, patience running thin.

"Close your eyes" His voice rang out.

"W..wait, what?" You asked, baffled by his strange request, "You want me to close my eyes?"

"Yes, you should be able to do it, wouldn't you?" He tone was coy, "Or should I ask for something else?"

"F...fine." You conceded, shutting your eyelids. Feeling him get closer step by step, you wondered what he was about to do. 

Something soft against your lips broke you from your thoughts. Eyes snapping open, you were surprised to find yourself staring into orbs of ruby and gold. His hand was cupping your cheek, the other at the small of your back, wrapped around your waist. Starting to sink into the kiss, you noticed that his lips were not at all what you had expected. They were soft and warm, like the pillow you always slept with.

When you finally broke away for air, he gazed at you with a look of contempt. Leaning down till his mouth was next to your ear. His breaths warmed the skin. You could barely make out the words his husky voice sounded,

"I'm always right (Y/N), don't forget that."
