satoru is a liar, pathetic, and he wants youâin that order âĄ
âsatoru?â you call into his hotel room, peeking around the door, barely disguised worry in your voice. he can hear it in the higher pitch your voice slips into for a fraction of a second, in the way you say his name.
he could get drunk off the soundâitâs more worthwhile than alcohol, anyhow.
fuck. he needs to croak, sound vaguely close to deathâs door, but not so close that shoko is called. heâs been practising with his reflection; he can do this.
he clears his throat, praying to gods he doesnât believe in (because if they existed, he wouldnât).
ohhhh, that was good. heâs rather proud of his tentatively-edging-toward-the-door-of-no-return voice.
he really can do anything he sets his mind toâitâs a real shame satoru doesnât set his apt mind to much at all.
âoh, satoru,â you approach him, trying and failing to sound stern. âcould you not have waited until after the mission to get sick?â
thereâsoftness in your tone; heâs in no real trouble. and, even better, youâre concerned on his behalf!
he takes in your attireâa robe that is tied taut over your chestâand the way youâre leaning over his bed. heâs never loved a vaguely musty hotel bed more.
is this heaven? satoru doubts heâll ever see the pearly white gates, but this is good enough.
âlook at you,â your palm presses gently to his forehead, and the impulse to press his mouth between your fingers is overwhelming. âyouâre all flushed.â
your touch only makes his affliction worse, and he grits his teeth to suppress what may or may not have been a whimper. the sound of your voice is a fatality heâs not prepared himself for.
âi know, i know,â satoru tries to inject his admission with his usual winning charm, but the gravel heâs forced into his voice has seemingly lodged itself there.
the need flooding him is so great he feels as though he could crawl out of his skin. âtypical gojo, right?â he tries to focus on grinning; watching you watch him is making him ache. âinconveniencing you until my final breath.â
âshould i..â your eyes skim the bed, which he fills entirely (âunnecessarily longâ, suguru once called him, to which heâd said âyeah, like my di-â). âshould I call someone? shoko?â
panic flares, but satoru keeps his tone measured. âplease. you do realise she didnât even pass med school, right? she just likes cutting people up.â
he could high-five himself: a whole two sentences!
now heâs resorted to closing his eyes, because the sight of you is too much. heâll moan if you lean any closer, so heâs decided hardly breathing is the safest option.
you never usually agreed to do overnight missions with him; the higher-ups had never seen satoru so delighted to be shipped off on a mission before. of course he had to fuck it up by thinking about you in the room opposite his and getting so hard he couldnât fucking think.
âoh, Iâm sorry,â you say with an edge to your voice, placing your hands on the sheets, dangerously close to his thigh. âwould you rather i nurse you? i can promise i wonât be as gentle or as careful as the only doctor weâve got.â
âyouâre seriously getting on at me for being ungrateful? in my condition?â
if youâre any meaner, heâll cum all over these white sheets, and then what will the two of you do?
âi donât even know whatâs wrong with you!â you tell him, frustration clear in the pretty furrow of your brow.
he should tell you how pretty you are; maybe the ache between his legs will ease with honesty.
âokay, okay,â you collect yourself quickly, like you always do, âwhat are your symptoms?â
âcome here,â satoru mumbles without thinking, and he sounds so completely serious that you do lean into his space.
âi feel-â holy fuck, itâs hot in here. is this danteâs inferno? he canât handle looking at you from across a street, why did he ask for you to come closer?
on the bright side, his desperation seems to work on youânoted.
his dick is twitching, and heâs shuddering like a fool. whatâs worse, the humiliation is only turning him on more. â-hot all over, kinda like iâm being burned, but..heavier? and my throat feels all clammy- do throats get clammy?â
what the fuck is he saying, blabbing on and on. is he high?
your deft fingers slide to his throat, pressing against his pulse point. satoru canât help the gasp that escapes him; heâs too busy firmly instructing his hips not to buck.
think of things that donât arouse you, satoru. youâre not even that hard.
mission reports. the curse that tried to eat him yesterday.
âyour pulse is fast.â
yesterday you thanked him reluctantly for carrying your bags when he insisted he would. youâd looked..pleased. pleased with him. he should mark the day in his calendar, so he never, ever forgets your begrudging thank you, that thing you do when you smile with your eyes and your mouth is almost forced to follow-
âsatoru?â as you try to rouse him from his stupor, your fingers are ever-so-slightly grazing his chest.
instinctively, he presses his face into your neck; one large, shaking hand comes up to pull the back of your neck as gently as he knows how.
the shock of pleasure coursing through him makes satoru bite down on his tongue, and even then, a pathetic whine leaves his slightly parted lips.
he should be undeniably ashamed of himself; heâs been trained since he knew what the word meant to restrain himself: his sorrow, his rage, his power. but he finds he cannot withdraw from joy, and he finds pleasure to be much the same. at least when itâs you causing it.
which he should be more irritated about by the way! but if youâre the sickness, you canât also be the cure.
âshhh, youâre okay,â still hazy, he can vaguely hear you..comforting him.
satoru considers how this must lookâheâs trembling, breathing heavily, clinging to you for support in a way youâve never known him to.
âyou really are sick,â you mutter, half to yourself.
he hides a grin, adjusting his drenched sweatpants.
âmhm,â he doesnât have to try to rasp.
your poor, terribly sick satoru
