Chapter 15
It was almost midnight when you heard the knock, soft and familiar. You sat up quickly, brushing your hair back, heart picking up for no real reason, already expecting it to be Gojo again, like every other night.
You walked to the door, already opening it, âtoruu?â
You stopped mid-sentence. It wasnât satoru. It was toji. He stood there, filling the doorway, broad and unmoving, eyes dark, mouth set in a hard line. He didnât say anything, didnât have to. You could feel it. The tension, the storm sitting just beneath his skin.
âTojiiâŠ?â you looked up at him, but he didnât answer, just stepped in.
âClose the door.â
âToji⊠what are you doââ
âLock it.â he cut in, not loud, but just enough to leave no room to argue.
Your throat bobbed, and without thinking, you stepped back, did as he asked. The click of the lock was loud in the silence. He moved past you slowly and sat on the edge of your bed, legs spread, elbows resting on his knees. His eyes stayed on the floor for a second before he looked up at you. âDo you love him?â
You blinked at him, caught off guard by the question he dropped the second he sat down and he didnât even bother easing into it.
âWh-who?â
âThat little punk. who the fuck else.â
âI... I love all of you.â
His face twisted. âso you love me too?â
You were already expecting it, so you met his eyes and said it, steady and honest, without hesitating. âOf course... I do.â
âLiar.â
âW-what?â your heart dropped.
âLiar,â he says again, voice edged with something mean. âthe hell you love about me?â his jaw ticks, eyes locked on yours. âI donât spoil you like Gojo. donât play nice like Geto. donât stand there actinâ like you hung the fuckinâ moon like Nanami.â he lets out a short, humorless breath. âI donât treat you like a damn princess.â
You stepped closer, shaking your head. âThatâs notââ
âShut up.â his voice cut through like a blade. âI ain't stupid. think I donât see it? I know what the fuck I am. some poor piece of shit with nothing but a dick and a bad attitude. I donât give you shit. all I do is fuck you.â
He stood now, walking up to you slow, until your back hit the door.
âIsnât that right?â he asked, eyes wild, voice low. âyou love me âcause I fuck you good, yeah? ruin you like none of them ever could? thatâs all it takes, huh?â
Your lips parted, but nothing came out.
âFigured,â he muttered, something sharp in the way he said it. His grip tightened slightly, eyes searching your face like he was trying to pull the truth out of you.
âYou love it when I use you like a fucktoy. thatâs what keeps you crawling back, not âcause you love me, not âcause you want me, just âcause your cunt knows how good I make it feel.â
âToji, what're you even saying?â
âThe fuckin' truth. should just fuck you till you forget those bastards. that what you want?â he grabbed your face, rough, thumb dragging down your lip. âwant me to remind you who the fuck showed you what it really means to be with a man?â
You couldn't breathe, the words stuck again, but this time he didnât let you stay silent.
âThatâs right,â he muttered. âit's me and they all fucking know it.â
He pressed his mouth to yours, hard. Desperate, even. Like he was kissing you to prove a point, like he was burning his name into you with every breath. And you melted. His hands were on you immediately, cupping your ass, dragging you into his hips, already half-hard from rage and need.
âGonna take me like you fuckinâ mean it,â he growled into your neck. âall mine, yeah?â
âTojiââ
âSay it.â
âYesss...,â you nodded so fast you felt dizzy.
âDamn right you are.â
He hoisted you up and walked you toward the bed like a man possessed. Then he dropped you onto the bed as if he was fed up with holding back. His hands were already tearing at your shirt, yanking it over your head like it was offending him just for being in the way. Your bra followed in seconds, and before you could even think of uttering a word, he was on you again, mouth latching onto your skin, teeth dragging against your collarbone. He kissed you like he was making up for days of starvation, rough and messy, all tongue and no patience.
âBet that little punk doesnât kiss you like this?â he muttered against your mouth. âtoo busy treating you like some little doll to fuckinâ devour you.â
His hands groped your tits, harsh, kneading palms, thumbs flicking your nipples until you gasped. âLook at these fuckin' tits⊠no wonder they wanna rail you all the time.â
"Tojii.. you!!" you gasped, shocked at the filthy shit he just said. Your fingers twisted hard in his hair, yanking it roughly... which only earned you a sharp, nasty bite on your nipple that made you squeak loud.
âWhat, baby? donât like hearin' the truth?â his mouth descended again, tongue circling your nipple before sucking, hard. âthey take you out, buy all that pretty shit, hoping youâll let them bury their cocks in you again and again and again.â
Your thighs squeezed together at his foul mouth. And he definitely felt that.
âOh? like that? got your cunt all wet?â he grinned against your skin, dragging his mouth lower, teeth grazing. âfuckin' knew it. getting off on all this attention, all of them wrapped around your finger, little slut.â he moved to your other breast, biting now, just enough to make you squirm.
âBut me?â he growled, voice darker now. âdonât need to buy you shit. donât need to say a goddamn word. you spread those legs for me just âcause you know Iâll fuck you right.â
Your back arched when he slapped your tit once, then leaned down to mouth it gently like it was some twisted apology. He pulled back just enough to look at you, pupils blown, greed carved into every sharp edge of his face.
âLove that, yeah?â you whimpered, nodding before your mind could stop you. He smirked, hand trailing down your belly, fingers slipping into your panties and feeling just how soaked you were.
âShit,â he muttered, groaning at the mess he found. âpussyâs cryin' f'me.â
He rubbed your swollen clit with two rough fingers, slow and firm, bullying that sensitive little nub between them. So fuckin' mean.
âNghh⊠t-tojiiiâŠâ you whined.
âAww, little princess doesnât like that?â he mocked, voice dripping with fake pity. âtoo bad. you take whatever the fuck I give ya'.â
He dipped a thick fingertip into your crying hole, watching you squirm and moan softly. It was all too much. Your body couldnât handle the overload, and it sure as hell wasnât helping the man on top of you stay calm either. Toji cursed low under his breath, eyes darkening as he stared down at you. âCome on. legs up. hold âem for me.â
He yanked your panties down to your knees, then folded you in half. Your shaky hands came up to grip the back of your thighs, obediently holding yourself open exactly how he ordered.
âWould ya look at that,â he growled, voice all smug. âbet that brat would cry blood if he see you actinâ like this f'me. heâs out there playinâ house⊠while youâre in here spread open for the man who doesnât give you shit but cock and chaos.â
You held yourself open like a good girl, thighs shaking hard. Toji leaned in close, dragging his tongue in a slow, wet stripe up your neck. Without warning, he shoved two thick fingers deep inside your cunt. You moaned so loud, back arching clean off the sheets.
âSo fuckin' easy.â he pumped his fingers into you hard and fast, thumb grinding ruthless circles on your clit while his mouth latched back onto your tits, sucking and biting until fresh red and purple hickeys bloomed all over your skin. You were gone dumb, gasping his name like it was the only thing keeping you sane, and it only made him meaner.
Toji pulled back, eyes locked between your spread legs. âfuckin' mess,â he smirked, licked his fingers clean, then climbed up your body.
âGonna make you show who's the real deal, baby,â he whispered, mouth brushing yours. âstartinâ right now.â
He settled between your legs, shoving his pants down. Fat, heavy cock slapped hard against your soaked cunt, the wet smack so brutal it made you bite your lip hard enough to draw blood. Even his dick was being mean to you.
âOops,â he said with a shit-eating grin, clearly not giving a fuck. âmy bad, doll.â
He leaned down again, grinding his cock against your pussy, the burning heat of it making you whine. His mouth found your neck, sucking hard enough to leave another dark mark.
âSay it again, doll.â
âS-say⊠whatâŠ?â you barely managed.
âThat you love me.â
âl-love you⊠I love youâŠâ
âThat so?â he chuckled, eyes glinting. âyou say you love me, but you still let those sugar daddies spoil you like their precious little princess, huh?â
He pulled back slightly, letting his gaze rake over your folded, trembling body like he was admiring his property. âSee doll, thatâs mine,â he said, tapping two fingers hard against your dripping pussy. âget that? cunt is fuckinâ mine.â
Your body jolted when he suddenly leaned in and claimed your mouth in a brutal kiss. He kissed like a man gone mad, teeth sinking into your bottom lip, tongue fucking into your mouth deep and possessive, like he was trying to brand you from the inside out. The kiss had you dizzy, head spinning, when Toji suddenly pulled back just enough to tap his thick cockhead against your soaked pussy twice, heavy and wet smacks that made your clit throb. He dragged the fat tip through your puffy folds, teasing you.
He didnât ask. Didnât wait. Didnât give you a single second to breathe. With a low groan rumbling in his chest, he pushed in slow and deliberate, stretching you open inch by thick inch until he bottomed out deep inside your cunt. You gasped, nails digging hard into his arms and shoulders as your walls clenched around him.
âFuck⊠tight,â he hissed through gritted teeth. âlike this pussyâs been saving herself just f'me.â
He didnât move right away, he just stayed there, buried deep, his hand crawling up to wrap around your throat, not squeezing, just holding.
âTell me, doll,â he growled, staring down at you. âwhen they kiss your hand, making sweet little promisesâdo they know this is where you end up? spread out, stuffed full of cock, begging the man who doesnât give you shit to ruin you?â
You shook your head in weak denial, and that only made toji smirk like the smug bastard he was. Before you could even catch your breath, he grabbed your hips and hauled half your body clean off the bed, folding you into a tight mating press. He squatted between your spread legs like a fucking beast, holding you right there so you had no choice but to watch.
You could see everything. Every thick inch of his cock was buried deep inside your soaked pussy, stretching you wide open, not a single bit left out. All of him, hot, heavy, and pulsing was stuffed inside your warm heat.
âSee that, doll?â he grinned, voice dripping with mockery. âlook how deep Iâm in ya'.â
He slowly pulled back, letting you watch his fat cock slide out inch by inch, glistening with your juices. Then he slammed back in hard. You cried out, the sudden fullness punching the air from your lungs.
âWhereâd my cock go, hm?â he asked, voice taunting.
You could only whimper pathetically. Toji pulled out almost all the way and slammed back in even harder. âAnswer me, doll.â
âIn⊠in meâŠâ you gasped.
He grinned, clearly satisfied but pretending he didnât hear shit. âWhat was that? couldnât catch it.â
He slammed into you again, brutal and deep. âBe more clear, princess. whereâs my cock?â
You were shaking, voice breaking as you forced the words out. âIn⊠in me⊠in my cuntâŠâ
Tojiâs grin turned feral, eyes dark with pure satisfaction. âThatâs my good girl.â
Then he really started slamming into you. Hard, fast, nasty strokes that made your whole body jolt with every thrust, the wet slap of skin on skin filling the room as he fucked you like he was trying to ruin you.
You were gasping now, hands scrabbling for anything, his arms, the sheets, the headboard, as Toji fucked into you like he wanted to rearrange your guts and your loyalties at the same time.
He grabbed one of your legs, hiked it over his shoulder, and drove in even deeper, hitting that spot that made your eyes roll back. You didnât even have the words anymore, just a string of gasps and moans, your pussy clenching tight around him as your climax built fast, overwhelming, shaking. Toji leaned in close again, his voice low and dangerous.
âYou love this,â he whispered. âlove being fucked dumb, like nothing but a pretty little toy that only I know how to break.â
And when you finally came, hard, legs trembling, body shaking, Toji groaned, gripping your hips and pounding through your orgasm, not slowing down for even a second. He didnât stop until he was spilling inside you with a grunt, deep and rough, pushing in as far as he could, like he wanted you to feel him for days. After a moment, he collapsed over you, breath hot against your neck, sweat dripping. Then, almost softly, he whispered, âstay with me.â
He hadnât even pulled out completely, still inside you, chest pressed against yours, sweat slick between your bodies. Then he leaned in once again. You felt his mouth on your collarbone, teeth sinking in deep enough to make you jolt with a hiss. Sharp sting that bloomed into heat as he licked over the spot.
âNot enough,â he growled against your skin. âdidnât say I was done with you.â
He pulled out slow, letting you feel the way your cunt clung to him, only to flip you over onto your stomach, hands planting firm on your hips to raise your ass. âStay like that. donât move.â
You were still coming down from your high, but your body listened. The air felt cold on your skin until his mouth met it again, on your shoulder, your back, your waist. Teeth again, dragging and sinking, leaving bruises and welts and little crescents of his bite everywhere he kissed.
âYou let them baby you all day,â he muttered, nipping the softest skin just above your ass. âbut at night? you beg for me.â
He bit down harder this time, enough to make you whimper. And then he was inside again. You moaned into the pillow, hips bucking instinctively, but he held you still.
âNuh-uh,â he grunted. âtake it. wanted me? got me.â He kept moving, fast and rough, every thrust timed with another sharp bite. âmine.â Bite. âall mine.â Bite.
âThey donât treat you like this? too soft. too scared. cowards.â
Another hard thrust. Another bruise rising on your skin as he bit your shoulder again. You were gasping, eyes wet, your body burning with overstimulation, but you loved it. Every word, every bruise, every growl in your ear lit you up from the inside.
âTojiâpleaseââ
âPlease what, baby?â he rasped, hand wrapping around your throat from behind, pulling you up slightly. âplease fuck you more?â
You nodded, barely able to speak, just breathy whines as he fucked deeper, faster, grunting with every slap of skin on skin. You felt him twitch inside you, his grip tightening. And when he came again, deep and messy, hips jerking with the last few thrusts, he didnât pull out right away. He leaned in one last time, mouth at your neck.
âfuckin' love you,â he murmured. âeven if Iâm the only one who canât say it nice.â
He bit down again. One final claim. And then he let you collapse. Your body was weak in the aftershock, breath shallow, thighs slick and twitching, the sheets sticking to your back from the heat radiating off both your bodies. Toji hovered above you, his chest rising and falling, glistening with sweat. You winced softly when he shifted again, your whole body aching.
âTojiâs'too muchââ you whispered, voice hoarse, eyes wet. But he didnât go for another round. Instead, he leaned in, thumb swiping at the tears still clinging to your lashes.
âTch⊠cried this much for me?â he muttered, then lowered his head to kiss the wet trails left behind. His lips were soft now, too soft for someone whoâd just ruined you like he had. Gentle brushes down your cheeks, then your jaw, then your neck where his earlier bites still throbbed. You felt him chuckle when you flinched a little at the contact. He licked a mark near your collarbone, then looked up at you with that smirk.
âIs this how Nanami do it?â he murmured, letting his mouth drag lower, tongue swiping under your breast, then biting gently at the softest part. âhe kiss you like this? hold you down fucking till you canât walk and then kiss the tears away too?â
You whimpered, fingers curling weakly against the sheets. His mouth moved lower, deliberately slow, one hand grabbing your tit roughly, pushing it together with the other to lavish attention, his tongue circling a nipple, then biting. You cried out loud. But it didn't seem like stopping him.
âWhat about Gojo?â he muttered against your skin, his voice muffled by your body. âdoes that pretty boy do this? suck you like heâs starved? leave you marked where no one else sees?â
He bit down again, hard enough to make your legs twitch. You arched instinctively into his mouth, a sob escaping. Toji kept going, covering your chest in more bite marks darker than before, lower this time. His hands roamed your sides, holding you like you might disappear if he let go.
âI donât do soft,â he muttered, voice dark and hoarse, his hand running down your belly, palm splayed over your navel. âI fuck. hard. y'know that.â
He kissed right above your pubic bone. âJust âcause I donât talk like em', doesnât mean I donât care. ainât gotta prove that shit to anyone.â His eyes lifted to yours, gaze intense and honest.
âUnless itâs you,â he added, tapping two fingers against your temple. âget that, doll?â
You giggled softly, cheeks warm, and it made him pause. The smile that broke out across his face wasnât cocky, it was real, crooked and almost sheepish, like it surprised even him.
âFuck,â he murmured, flopping down next to you with a deep exhale. He laid a heavy arm across your belly, pulling you close. His voice dropped, suddenly quieter, barely above a breath.
âIâm gonna sleep hereââ he caught himself, the edge in his tone faltering. â...shit. I mean, can I sleep here?â
The shift from command to request made your chest tighten a little. You smiled, a soft chuckle slipping past your lips without meaning to. Toji groaned, rolling his eyes with a low grumble. âTch. donât laugh at me, brat.â
You turned your head toward him, still smiling, your cheek pressed to the pillow. âIâm not,â you murmured. âItâs just⊠cute.â
He scoffed, clearly pretending to be annoyed, but the way his arm tightened around you betrayed him. âI ainât cute,â he muttered. âIâm pissed off, tired, and just got done banging you.â
You giggled again, and he pulled the blanket higher over both of you with a huff, nuzzling his nose against your temple.
âDonât mock me,â he added more gently, like he couldnât help himself. âshitâs new to me, alright?â
Your fingers found his lips, tracing the scar across it lightly. âwhat is?â
âThis,â he said simply. âlyinâ with you, askinâ to stay. I donât do this shit.â He was quiet for a beat, then added, âbut with you⊠I donât mind it.â
Your heart swelled a little at that. He rubbed slow circles on your back, voice gruff and low against your ear.
âI ain't like em'. ain't got the money, ain't got the manners, but got this,â he said, pressing his palm against your lower back where his bruises painted your skin. âand Iâm here. gotta mean somethinâ, yeah?â
You nodded, your voice small. âIt does.â
Toji kissed the top of your head, just once. Then he grunted, tugging you closer like he planned to hold you through the night. âGood,â he murmured. ânow shut up and sleep before I start another round.â
But the teasing tone had faded, replaced with warmth. And even as exhaustion took over, his arms didnât loosen. Like he wasnât going anywhere.
***
Weak morning light crept through the curtains, and the spot beside you was already cold. Toji was gone. Probably in the kitchen or already starting one of his early workouts, the overachieving brute. You sighed, dragging yourself to the bathroom. Body aching in all the ways that said, yep, you got destroyed last night. Brushing your teeth, stepping into the shower, it was all routine, until you stood in front of the mirror.
âOh. my. god.â
It looked like youâd lost a fight with a pack of wild dogs and barely survived. Neck, chest, thighs, everywhere was marked up. Bruises in all shades, angry red bite marks, purpling hickeys blooming like war medals across your skin. One particularly nasty one shaped like Tojiâs molars stared back at you from your inner thigh.
âThis man needs to be put on a leash,â you groaned.
You quickly tugged on a high-neck, full-sleeved top, one you didnât even remember owning and grabbed the baggiest pair of sweatpants you had. The outfit screamed modest grandma, completely opposite of your usual bright, flirty clothes. But you were NOT letting the rest of the house see what Tojiâs jealousy tantrum had done.
Padding to the kitchen, you kept your head down. Nanami was already sitting with his morning paper and coffee, looking pristine as always. He glanced at you once, brows furrowing. âcold?â
You froze. ây-yeah.â
Nanami looked toward the open balcony door. âItâs not winter yet.â
You tugged your sleeves nervously. âstill... I justâgot cold, okay?â
Thatâs when Gojo showed up, premium robe hanging off him, completely at ease, hair a mess, still stretching like heâd just crawled out of bed.
âBunnyy~!â he sang, eyes landing on you, then immediately narrowing in exaggerated betrayal. âwhy are you dressed like... Nanami?â
You flushed. âIâwhat?â
âYouâre literally cosplaying Nanamin right now!â he wailed. âwhereâs that little yellow top I got you? you know, the one that shows off your tits just right when youâre bending over theââ
âGojo,â Nanami said sternly, glaring over the rim of his mug.
âIâm just saying, sheâs supposed to be my sunshine in this house,â Gojo kept going dramatically. âand now sheâs dressed like the weather report!â
Before you could move away, Gojo closed in quick, sudden. His hand caught the collar of your top and yanked it down in one sharp tug.
âSatoru!â you snapped, grabbing his wrist, but it was already too late. The damage was done.
Nanami stood up so fast his chair scraped the floor. âGOJO!â
Gojo blinked. âwaitâoh my fucking god.â
Both of them stared, eyes wide. You were covered, neck to chest in love bites, hickeys, bruises. âCoveredâ was an understatement.
âGojo, what the hell is wrong with you?â Nanami barked.
âWhat did I do?â Gojo pulled his hands back from you, like it burned. His eyes flicked to you, wide and wild, like heâd just been accused of something far worse than he deserved.
Nanami was losing it, his fists tightening at his sides. âyouâre the one sneaking into her room every night, of course itâs you!â
âWOAH WOAH WOAH!â Gojo backed up, hands raised like he was getting arrested. âokay, yes, I do sneak into her room. many times. but not last night!â
Nanami scowled. âoh please.â
âI swear!â Gojo insisted. âI got high off suguâs gummies and passed out on the bed like a corpse! ask him!â
You quickly adjusted your top, heart thudding as you darted toward the living room to escape their eyes. But Gojo was already halfway to their room, banging on the door.
âSUGUUU! WAKE UP! I NEED AN ALIBI!â
Geto shuffled out moments later, half-asleep and his hair wild. âJesus, what now?â
âTell him I didnât even leave the bed last night,â Gojo said urgently, grabbing Geto by the shoulders.
Geto rubbed his eyes. âhe didnât. he was completely stoned and wouldnât stop humming âcareless whisperâ in his sleep.â
âSee!â Gojo pointed triumphantly. âInnocent!â
Geto glanced over at you, blinking the last of the sleep from his eyes and then he stilled. His gaze dragged, slow and deliberate, taking you in from head to toe. He crooked two fingers toward himself, wordless. You went without thinking, hurrying over.
The moment you were close enough, his hand came up, fingers warm as they caught your chin, tilting your face up. He turned it slightly, then the other way, quiet and assessing. His thumb brushed along your jaw where the marks hadnât quite faded. A pause. Then, almost absentmindedly, he hooked a finger into your collar and pulled it down just enough to see.
His brows lifted, amusement flickering across his face. ââŠholy shit.â
âWhat?â Nanami and Gojo said at the same time.
Geto didnât answer immediately. His eyes flicked over you once more, slower this time, like he was putting pieces together and enjoying it.
âI meanââ he let out a low breath, half a laugh under it. âsomeone needs to be put in a cage.â
Gojo gasped. âokay now I feel hurt. even I donât do that much damage.â
âI would never leave bite marks,â Nanami muttered, disappointed.
âI mean... youâd never even leave a hickey,â Gojo shot back.
âBecause Iâm not a high schooler, gojo.â
Geto just laughed, completely entertained as they all started arguing again.
You finally blurted out, cheeks blazing, âIt was Toji!â
Silence. All three men turned toward you.
Nanami blinked. âToji?â
Gojoâs jaw dropped. âToji???â
Geto grinned like Christmas came early. âso thatâs why he was sulking all day.â
Gojo pointed at you like he was trying to process a betrayal. âwaitâso he got jealous, banged you, and then just left? that moron!â
âShut the hell up,â came a low voice from the hallway. Toji had emerged, towel around his neck, hair damp from a shower, looking all mad and annoyed.
Gojo crossed his arms. âyou bit her up like a chew toy, man.â
Toji shrugged. âgood.â
Nanami gave him a flat look. âyouâre insane.â
âYeah,â Toji said, walking into the kitchen to grab a protein bar. âbut you all still wanna fuck her, so Iâm clearly doing something right.â
At that moment, you almost prayed for it, that the gods would be kind enough to just let the ground open and take you with it.
***
Gojo had been pouting all morning, sulking like a rejected prom queen. His arms crossed, face pulled into a dramatic frown, sighing every ten minutes just loud enough to make sure someone would ask what was wrong.
News flashâno one did.
So finally, as Nanami sat down with his meal, Gojo snapped.
âI just wanna know why I got a âno bunnyâ ban, but Toji the freakinâ mauler gets a free pass!â
Nanami looked up calmly. âbecause you take things too far.â
Gojo pointed at you across the table. âshe was just a little bit covered in hickeys when I was involved. just a tasteful few! romantic even! but he turned her into a crime scene and you all let it slide?â
Nanami didnât flinch. âbecause he doesnât do it when sheâs half-asleep.â
Gojo gasped. âthat happened once! and she said she didnât mindâright, princess?â
You glanced up from your bowl, biting back a laugh. âI⊠didnât really know what was happeningâŠâ
âSeriously? can you be on my side for once, bunny?â Gojo argued. âfor fuckâs sake, Is anyone ever on my side?ââ
No one responded.
âWow,â Gojo said, clutching his chest. âno one is defending me? Iâm the villain now? fine. Iâm hurt. Iâm wounded. Iâmââ he stood dramatically, scoffing. ââtaking my emotional baggage and going to my room.â He stormed off, dramatically brushing his robe like a cloak behind him.
***
Later that evening, one by one, everyone returned from work. The apartment buzzed with the usual chaos. Nanami was on the dining table chopping veggies, meal-prepping for the week, Geto was sprawled on the couch watching a documentary with questionable content, and Gojo had emerged in pajamas as if he hadnât been home all day.
You were hanging near the shelf in the hallway when Toji walked in last, gym bag slung over his shoulder. He didnât say much, never did, but his eyes scanned the room, then landed on you.
âCome to the balcony.â
That alone made Gojo perk up immediately. âsuspicious,â he whispered, following behind you like a gossip-hungry aunt.
Toji turned mid-step, gave him a look sharp enough to slice, and Gojo stopped mid-snoop, hands in the air. âalright, alright! damn.â
You stepped onto the balcony with Toji, and he slid the glass door shut behind you, cutting off the sounds of Gojo muttering âIâll just press my face to the glass thenâ from inside.
You blinked up at Toji. âwhatâs going on?â
He said nothing at first, just pulled something from his bag. A plushie. A soft, slightly chonky grey kitten with a little ribbon tied around its neck.
Your eyes sparkled, practically lighting up your whole face. âIs⊠is this for me?â
âWho else would it be for?â he muttered, already looking away like he regretted this deeply emotional act of service.
You cupped it like a precious gem. âoh my god, itâs so cute.â
Toji gave a single nod, hands in his pockets. âdonât I get a kiss or something?â
âOh! uh⊠yeah⊠I meanââ you leaned up and pecked him quickly. Too quickly.
He scoffed, caught your waist, and kissed you again. Longer, deeper, with his hand slipping behind your neck. When he finally pulled away, his eyes lazily scanned your neck.
ââŠDamn. I really am a damn dog.â
You giggled. âyeah, kind of...â
Toji blinked. Something about your laughter hit him in the chest, his usual dead-eyed stare softening for a split second.
And thenâBANG BANG BANG.
âOpen up!â Gojo yelled from behind the glass. âI know youâre giving her drugs or something!â
Toji sighed heavily and slid the door open. You followed him back inside, still holding the kitten plush like a prized trophy. Gojo immediately trailed behind, staring suspiciously.
âOi. whatâs with that thing?â
âUhm⊠Toji gave it to me,â you said it softly, clutching it a little tighter on instinct, before that manchild tried to snatch it away like the little punk he is.
Gojo gasped like heâd seen a ghost. âHE DID WHAT?â
You nodded, smiling sheepishly.
Gojo snatched the plush from your arms like a jealous brat. âwhat the fuck is this?! a kitten?! sheâs a bunny, not a kitten, old man!â
Toji groaned. âwhat the hell is wrong with you?â
âYou seriously went into a store, saw this plushie, and thought, yupe, this screams her? do you even know her aesthetic?â Gojo said, waving the plush in the air.
âI liked it. thought sheâd like it. bought it. gave it to her. thatâs it.â
âOh my god,â Gojo whispered like heâd just uncovered a dark family secret. âTojiâs gone soft.â
The noise summoned Geto, shirt unbuttoned, his eyes sleepy. âwhatâs the noise now?â
Nanami trailed in with a tea cup. âlet me guess. Gojoâs being dramatic again.â
Gojo turned, holding the plush like it was evidence. âlook! Toji got her a kitten plushie! heâs gone full daddy mode! Iâm witnessing a rebrand in real time!â
Geto squinted. âawww, itâs kinda cute.â
âItâs weird!â Gojo snapped. âIs no one disturbed by this?! sheâs been corrupted by bitey the barbarian and now heâs giving her toys like a predator!â
Nanami raised a brow. âSatoru.â
âNah! weâre going to talk about the real issue hereâdoes she even like the plushie? or is she just pretending because he's scary?â
Everyone turned to you.
Your eyes widened. âwhat? no, I actuallyââ
âBlink twice if he threatened you,â Gojo interrupted, narrowing his eyes.
You looked helplessly between them. âI really do like it!â
âYeah, sure,â Gojo muttered, tossing the plushie in the air dramatically. âstockholm syndrome.â
Thatâs when Toji, finally done with this circus, yanked the plush from Gojoâs hands with a grunt and shoved it back into yours.
âThere,â he muttered. âItâs hers. shut the hell up already.â
You held it close, blinking up at him.
Gojo crossed his arms. âwow. protective over the plushie. whatâs next, matching pajamas?â
Toji looked like he was one more sentence away from throwing Gojo off the balcony.
Geto chuckled. âhey, if he buys her a collar next, Iâm leaving the apartment.â
Nanami just sighed, sipping his tea. âI hate this place.â
***
The apartment had finally quieted down after Gojoâs dramatic meltdown and the succeeding teasing that followed Tojiâs unexpected plushie gesture. Everyone had retreated to their little corners. Gojo and Geto holed up in their room, the muffled sound of game controllers clicking and Gojoâs occasional dramatic whining spilling through the closed door. Nanami was out on the balcony, laptop open, posture perfect, sipping his tea like he wasnât surrounded by degenerates.
And you? curled up on the couch, hugging the kitten plushie close to your chest. You didnât know why it felt so special. Maybe it was because it came from Toji, who didnât really do this kind of stuff.
No one expected it of him. No one asked him for tenderness. But there it was, soft and fuzzy in your arms, a strange kind of warmth that made your cheeks glow even under the TV light.
You turned the plush over, inspecting it like it might have a secret message hidden in its seams. It had no tags, clearly picked with thought. Its paws were slightly weighted, its ribbon tied a little clumsily, like maybe Toji had done it himself. The idea made your heart do a quiet little flip.
You were watching One Piece, something comforting and familiar. An older episode where the crew was laughing and fighting over something ridiculous. You had half your attention on the screen, the rest on the plush, when you heard slow, heavy footsteps. Didnât even need to turn around. Knew who it was by the pace alone.
Toji.
He plopped down on the couch next to you, a low grunt escaping his chest as he stretched his long legs out. He said nothing at first, just watched you with that usual unreadable expression, tired eyes, lips parted slightly, posture lazy. Then, slowly, his arm came around your waist.
You blinked as he tugged you sideways into his lap, your body shifting easily to fit against his. You squeaked a little at the sudden movement, but Toji just sniffed near your neck like it was the most normal thing in the world.
ââŠThis smell.â his voice was rough and quiet. âis that your shampoo?â
You nodded, a little flustered. âyeah.â
ââŠWhich one?â
You turned to look at him, brows raised in surprise. â⊠that cherry blossom one. the pink bottle.â
Toji didnât respond immediately. He just nodded, very seriously, as if mentally cataloging it like a hitman memorizing a targetâs habits. You could practically see the gears turning. And then casually, almost awkwardly, he glanced at the screen.
âWhatâs this shit?â
Your heart paused. âItâs One Piece,â you said, a little surprised. âyou donât know it?"
He made a vague grunt. "nah.â
That caught your attention. âwaitâyouâve never watched One Piece?â
âdonât know what's that, princess.â
You giggled, sinking further into his chest, your plush still clutched against you. âwell, I love it,â you said proudly. âI grew up watching this.â
Toji hummed. âso, then whoâs your favorite?â
You lit up instantly. âI have so many,â you said, already leaning forward in excitement. âlike, obviously Luffy. Zoro tooâheâs so strong, like ugh, I love him. Shanks is cool, also love him. Sanjiâs a flirt but he's soo sweet. and Lawâoh, he is hot.â
Toji raised an eyebrow. âdamn, youâve got a whole lineup.â
You let out a soft laugh.
He grunted, looking at the screen again. âyou like the dumb stretchy kid?â
âLuffy? heâs not dumb! heâs the besttt!â
Toji side-eyed you. âyeah. whatever.â
You smacked his arm playfully, and he caught your wrist mid-air, his grip gentle as he pulled your hand to his chest, keeping it there. He was quiet for a beat. Then, slowly, softly:
âSo⊠this shit makes you happy?â
You turned to look up at him, surprised again. His voice sounded weirdly careful, like he was tiptoeing through a minefield.
ââŠYeah,â you said quietly, nodding. âit does. kind of like⊠comfort food. just feels good, no matter what...â
Toji didnât say anything to that. But he stared at you longer than usual, as if trying to understand something he never had to think about before. Like comfort, or nostalgia, or why you looked so damn peaceful with that kitten plush clutched in your arms.
From the balcony, Nanami had glanced inside casually and paused. He could see the two of you on the couch, tucked together like mismatched puzzle pieces. You were talking animatedly, Toji was listening. Not just enduring, but listening, brows faintly furrowed, eyes trained on you like he was trying to decode you in real-time. And then Toji said something, and you laughed again, head falling against his shoulder, plush still pressed to your chest.
Nanami blinked slowly.
Toji Fushiguro. Asking questions. Engaging in a normal conversation. Holding you like you were something soft. Was this a glitch in the universe?
For a split second, Nanami felt somethingâwarmth? Amusement? Maybe a twinge of jealousy. He was usually the one who listened, asked questions, remembered your favorite shows and food and your little life stories. But even he had to admit. Seeing Toji try, really try to be tender, in his weird rough-edged way, was⊠surprising. Almost sweet.
Nanami smiled faintly to himself and sipped his tea, letting the feeling settle. Maybe this wouldnât be such a disaster after all.
Back on the couch, Toji shifted a bit, his hand lightly stroking your thigh now. ââŠsooo, that stretchy kidâs your type, huh?â
You glanced up. âwhy? jealous?â
âTch,â he muttered, eyes narrowing. âIf I could stretch like that, you wouldnât be able to walk for a week.â
You choked on your own breath, smacking his arm again. âTojiiiiiii!â
He smirked, leaning his head back against the couch, closing his eyes briefly. But his grip on you stayed firm. The plush was between your chests now, squished softly, and Tojiâs fingers never stopped moving, absent-minded, rubbing over your leg, or playing with the edge of your sleeve. He wasnât used to this. Wasnât good at it. But damn, he was trying.
And you? you were melting.
Maybe it wasnât perfect. But it felt real.
And you liked that.
