seems like it'd take a while for us to leave the bedroom

Gojou Satoru is in a little bit of a pinch.

When one hears the word ‘pinch’ coming from a person affiliated with the Curse Technical College, one would think that there are fights involved, and they’re losing or something... or another. Ah, but of course, this ‘pinch’ had nothing at all to do with fights or anything of the sort. After all, he’s the Gojou Satoru, the strongest shaman ever known to mankind. No, no, it has nothing to do at all with such dangerous things! It is actually―

“Satoru, thank you. Thank you for always being by my side. I know that you’re kind, and although you look nonchalant you actually care about the people around you... including me. I love you. I love you so much...”

――this.

The words his cute, super cute, extraordinarily cute girlfriend is currently whispering on his ears as she kept on caressing his hair, at times kissing his cheek, nose, and eyes.

“Soooooooo cute!!”

She probably hadn’t realized that he’s awake yet - after all he still had his eyes closed, as he’d missed the timing to wake up.

“Gojou Satoru,” she said, repeatedly as if tasting the words on her tongue. Slowly, slowly, she spoke one syllable at a time, before for the last time, in a very soft tone - as if placing her heart’s whole affection into it - she called his name: “Satoru... happy birthday. Thank you for being born in this world.”

And then she kissed him on the lips softly, perhaps as to not wake him up.

Gojou could feel his chest tightening. The sheer affection and sweetness he felt from her voice, her movements, her warmth... all of it made him feel the reality of her love, how they’re connected, and how he’s currently the happiest person on the world right now.

“Is this how it feels to love someone so much your chest actually hurts?”

Last night they had reaffirmed their love under the sheets, and today too he was made aware of how deeply fallen he was for her.

Truly, he thought, I’m no match for you.

How strong are you to make the strongest shaman bow down like this?

“Oh, it’s time to prepare breakfast―wah!”

He heard her mutter, and as she’s about to get off the bed, he immediately reached his hand, grabbed her arms softly, and pulled her back in.

Her surprised voice echoed through the room, and before she could say anything, Gojou wrapped his arm around her hips, and with his other arm he pulled her in for a kiss. At first it was a soft, light kiss, and she was too surprised to react - however, as she regained her composure and decided to respond to the kiss, Gojou deepened the kiss, and refuse to let go.

“Mmh... Satoru...”

And when he finally set her free, he said, in a soft tone, full of love to the brim that she had never heard before:

“I love you.”

I can never live without you, not anymore.
