The story about two imperfect people being each other strength. They may be hurt, they may be broken, but they will never leave. Determined eyes sparkled, keeping the gentle promise in each other's hearts.
A fan swung from the maiden’s hand. Her unwavering crimson eyes stared at the man in front of her, and she moved forward as the fan hit that man hard on the face.
'Why did he never listen to me?!'
One guy fell to the ground. Another guy comes at her, telling his other gang members to block her attack.
'I just tell him to wait for 5 minutes for god's sake! Stupid Riku!'
She turned around; her lilac hair swayed as she moved. Her fan hit the neck of one guy behind, and she landed a kick to another one. By then, all of the 5 members of the thug gang had already been knocked down.
"Just tell me where you brought my brother! Give him back!" She panted, but her piercing glare never left them.
"And let go of the person who can give us a million yen? Haha never—argh!"
Her shoes stepped on his stomach. "Try saying that again and you will—?!"
Yuna’s focus suddenly diverted as she dodged a baseball bat thrown from behind. The thugs took this opportunity to flee. She rushed after them, but they had already driven away with their car.
“Shit …!” Yuna let out an annoyed, exasperated sigh. She couldn’t chase them with that speed.
‘Now what …? That old lady must be furious to know her beloved grandchild got kidnapped.’
She touched her lotus pendant bracelet to calm herself down; it had a fragrance of aromatic therapy. She exhaled and inhaled, trying to take a deep breath.
“Yuna, what are you doing here this late?”
In the middle of her confusion, a voice called to her. She turned around and found someone whom she knew so well.
“Umemiya-san .…”
•••
Furin High School—the delinquent school which students became the city protector in this era—was full of students who were having their lunch and chatting during their break time, but not for the platinum blonde haired guy who followed his senior to the rooftop.
"Hiragi-san, wait—"
"—You still want to reject that position? Everyone chose you as the class leader, Kaji." Hiragi, his respected senior with dark blonde hair and shark-like teeth sighed at him.
"They don't know who I truly am. What if I …," Kaji touched the headphone around his neck and looked down; anxiety began creeping up his chest. He was just afraid that his classmate knew the hidden side he had been desperately trying to bury. "I think I'm not suitable for that position ….”
Hiragi's gaze softened as he knew what Kaji's afraid of. However, as he was about to open his mouth to comfort Kaji, Umemiya—the Furin's leader—approached them.
"Hiragi, I need some help."
Hiragi was a bit intrigued. It’s kind of rare to see Umemiya in this serious state.
"What's it?"
"One of my friends needs our help. Her brother got kidnapped yesterday. I want us to help her save him." Umemiya's tone remained serious. Hiragi knew that if Ume was in this state, the person who needed help must have been someone important.
"Then, I recommend Kaji and his class to go help her." Hiragi patted Kaji's back and looked at him.
"H-Huh?!" Kaji couldn't hide his horror expression.
"… Are you sure?" Ume looked at Hiragi. Hiragi nodded and smiled at Kaji.
"I believe in him."
Seeing one of his trustable partners believed his junior that much, Ume couldn't help but smile. "Fine then.” He decided. “Kaji, tell your classmate, all class 1-1, to meet me here after school."
—
'Why did I end up in this situation …?’
Kaji couldn’t believe this became his very first duty as Furin's high schooler and class leader on the first day. It's not like he was burdened by it—hell, he was already used to fight many bandits since kid. Instead, the fact that he was doing it with his classmate as 'Class leader' bothered him. He was afraid that he couldn’t lead them properly like how Hiragi-san did for them.
"Why're you so quiet, 'leader'? If you’re afraid, I can lead them instead." Enomoto, one of the vice leaders in Kaji's class, threw a snarky remark. He was still annoyed that Kaji knocked him off that easily back then.
"No need." As he walked in, Kaji put his white headphones on.
Kusumi, another vice leader, was panicked at the rising tension between those two. He quickly typed something on his phone and showed it to them.
[Don't fight please, we need to work together to save the kidnapped person]
Kaji and Enomoto looked at each other in annoyance before stepping forward again. They went to the west side of Makochi where the Narumi household resided. Narumi was known as one of the noble families in this city; with their grace and successful business, they gained respect almost automatically from the villagers.
A maid opened the door for them. They went inside and saw the family who had been waiting for them; an old couple, a woman, and a young girl with her school uniform and some bandaids on her face.
"Welcome, Furin boys. Thank you for lending us your help in this matter." Kaji's class was greeted by the old lady who still looked fresh despite her age.
"Please, save my son. He must be scared now,” said another woman. She seemed like the mother of the victim.
Enomoto moved forward. "Yes, we’ve already heard the chronology from our leader. Now could you please tell us his last position?”
"They said they will wait for us to send them money at the abandoned building near the red district." The old lady answered.
"Fine, then. We will go." Kaji nodded and gave a look to his classmate.
"Thank you. You’re all really helpful. Not like someone who was given the duty to protect him but failed." The old lady’s tone changed into disgust as she side-eyed the young girl at the corner.
Kaji followed her gaze at the girl, and he recognized that uniform from Seikai's girl high school. His eyes scanned the girl’s condition; It looked like she got hurt because of the accident yesterday. She just looked down, and Kaji could tell the purple-pink haired girl regretted that she couldn't save the kidnapped boy.
"You will not just stand there, right, Yuna? Help the Furin boys to save your Riku. He's the important heir of the family, and it's your fault that you failed to protect him." Continuing to speak, the old lady glared at the girl with a bold warning. The girl named Yuna just nodded and said yes.
Kaji watched the scene in front of him intensely. It was kinda strange for him to see a family throw their other member who was still hurt to go fighting bandits and save the heir. Was that heir more important than the other family members? He didn’t understand, but he remembered Umemiya's words.
'Whatever happened there, don't intervene with their family problem, okay?'
Well, Umemiya was right. He better not intervene with their family's problem; It was none of his business.
•••
Kaji and his classmate walked to the empty building. Yuna followed them from behind while staying quiet since they left the Narumi household.
“Why is that girl coming with us? We will fight against the kidnapper.” Enomoto whispered to Kaji.
“Don't know. Maybe she can fight.”
“Don't be kidding ….”
“I don't even need y’all to help. I can save my brother alone.” Eventually, Yuna opened her mouth. “Don't underestimate me just because I'm a girl.”
“Huh?” Kaji was suddenly irked at that girl’s arrogance. He stopped and looked at Yuna. “Do as you want, as long as you don't get in our way.”
“That's my line.” Yuna looked back at Kaji with the equal sharp glaze.
‘This girl is really annoying.’
—
“Oy, how long do we wait until they bring us money?”
“Just a bit more, that old lady said she’s already on the way.”
Two members of thug gang leaned on the sofa while scrolling their phone.
“What if they bring polic—”
CRACK! BRAK!!
The door broke, revealing Kaji and Yuna who were looking at each other, still in their kicking stances and frowns on their faces.
“WHA–?! BASTARD!” The guy hurriedly called their members, and within seconds they gathered, ready to counter attack.
Yuna wasted no second to rush forward, leaving Kaji with his widened eyes,
‘How reckless!’
He tutted and lunged forward as well, punching several members who came at him. His eyes darted to Yuna, noticing five members gathered around her, and even though he was annoyed, he couldn’t leave her to get hurt again.
However, a steel fan swayed open, swinging around to every direction with unbelievable speed. It hit the thugs’ faces from the right, smashed their heads from the left, slapped their chins from the front, and swirled behind as Yuna kicked the enemies down one by one. Those thugs started bleeding and gradually toppled to the ground; all because of one steel fan.
Kaji was left stunned. It was his first time to see such a technique. Turned out, she did not just have a big mouth and could actually fight—wait, it was not merely a ‘fight’, it was more like … she was dancing in the wind ….
“TAKE THIS, KID!”
His thoughts dispersed when a guy threw an attack on him. Luckily, Kaji was able to dodge it on time and sent that man flying with his kick. Gray eyes glanced around; his classmates already split up as planned, and they were currently handling the rest of the gang. Now, he needed to go to the room where the victim was being held hostage. He went to the second floor and found that Yuna was already there, getting outnumbered.
“Sending a bunch of kids here? How lame that Narumi family is.” The thugs smirked at both of them, feeling confident they would win.
SLAP! SPLASH
His smirk slowly faded as his head was bleeding. The two guys on the front fell to the ground, and Yuna’s crimson eyes glared behind the steel fan.
‘How fast! That technique again.’ Kaji couldn’t help but admit that Yuna was, indeed, a skilled fighter.
The other thugs were shocked, but they immediately lunged forward and started attacking both teens brutally. Kaji dodged their attack, did a backflip, and kicked two guys at the same time. Wasting no breath, he stood up and lunged forward, punching other two guys on his left side. Yuna stole a glance at Kaji from the corner of her eyes.
‘His skill is annoyingly good!’
Kaji noticed that Yuna already handled the guys on the right side. The fight led them to slowly touch each other's back. Despite their previous tension, it didn’t stop them from saving Riku. Yuna then began attacking the thugs from mid-range, crushing them with her swinging fan. Kaji followed with another attack from close range, landing powerful blows while casually eating a lollipop. Surprisingly, they were such a good combo.

The man who had fallen slowly stood up again and sneakily attacked Yuna’s right arm with a piece of broken glass from her blind spot. She winced at her bleeding hand, and the man took this opportunity to grab her. Yuna tried to break free, causing her fan to slip off the clutch. Kaji saw that and tried to intervene as the thug was about to land a punch on her.
“HAHA, without that fan, you can't do any—UGH, OHOK!”
Yuna’s left hand blew a punch on his stomach, interrupting his arrogance.
“YOU—!”
Her leg swung and kicked him hard on the face. The man was finally knocked out.
“Have you heard that basic martial arts movement is empty-handed combat? How foolish.” Brushing away some hair that fell on her face, Yuna looked at him in disgrace.
‘How arrogant … but she’s skilled ….’
Kaji swirled the lollipop inside his mouth, kinda annoyed with the fact that Yuna managed to smack most of these tugs on her own.
“Hah, those fools … How could they be beaten up by a bunch of kids?!”
Now, their boss was the only person left. He gave Kaji and Yuna a smug look as he puffed on a cigarette while standing up and walked slowly towards them. The young boy and girl with their respective school uniforms panted slightly, glancing sharply at the big, tall man in front of them. The boss must have been the most skilled in the gang, right? They prepared to face a bigger showdown. Suddenly, all of Kaji’s classmates gathered behind them.
“Who said you two would do this alone?!” Enomoto shouted at them.
Now, the boss was outnumbered by Furin’s class 1-1 and Yuna. Kaji was a bit surprised because it was not on their plan, and yet his classmates chose to help him instead. Yuna kept her gaze at the boss, scanning his every movement. That man started to take a fighting stance and—
“HIIIIII, SAVE ME MOMMYYYYY …!” —dashed out of the window and escaped.
The Furin boys and Yuna blinked.
“W-What …?” She couldn’t believe her eyes. THE BOSS, who was supposed to lead the gang and was usually the STRONGEST one among them, chose to run away cowardly just like that.
“ …Boss my ass.” Kaji mumbled.
Enomoto sighed, and Kusumi took out his phone to tell their seniors and Narumi family that they succeeded in saving the victim.
•••
Yuna, Enomoto, and Kusumi approached Riku who was tied to the chair. They cut the ropes and took the tape off his mouth. Yuna checked on his condition, and thankfully, he was fine and had no injury.
“Are you ok—”
SLAP!
Kaji’s eyes widened as he stopped sucking the lollipop for a second. Everyone was shocked by the scene. They never expected Riku to easily lay a hand on the girl like that, especially his own sibling; the one who saved him. Yuna’s cheek turned a bit red.
“IT’S ALL YOUR FAULT THAT I GOT KIDNAPPED!”
Actually, it was his own fault for wandering alone in the middle of a dangerous street that night. She had already told him to wait, but he didn't listen. Responding to his words would likely earn another slap from him and end up making that old lady furious, so Yuna just sighed and looked down.
“And why are you so slow?! What if something happened to me, huh?!” Riku shouted at her without any guilt, not even thanking her for saving him as if it was a ‘common’ thing she should have done.
Kaji waited for Yuna’s reaction, but she just kept quiet. He lifted one eyebrow, wondering where her arrogance went. She used to be fierce and annoyingly full of herself minutes ago. His eyes drifted back to Riku who was still with his nonsensical blabbering. Kaji then wore his headphones and slowly stepped forward.
Yuna could feel her surroundings turn quiet. Of course they would. No one would dare to interfere even though she had been humiliated in front of them, even though they thought it was wrong.
‘Aah … so noisy again. Shouting at me in front of people.’
No one dared to speak up for her, thinking it was just another family’s business. It had always been like that, so what was she even expecting, though? They could be thrown to jail if they dared to offend the Narumi family's young master. The harsh, ugly reality of ‘the ones with money and power always win’. Nobody in their right mind was fool enough to let themselves get into trouble for her sake.
However, a pair of shoes halted beside her. Yuna glanced at her left. The headphone boy was standing next to her, and she was a bit confused why he would be there.
“?? What do you want?” Riku got annoyed by this sudden interruption. Unaffected, Kaji walked closer to him.
“I said, WHAT DO YOU—”
SMACK!!
Yuna and everyone there gasped at the sight of Riku falling to the ground. That ‘young master’ was knocked out instantly after Kaji laid a hard punch right to his face.
“Noisy.” Just like that, and he shoved another lollipop into his mouth.
“KAJI! What the hell did you just do?! Umemiya-san said not to interfere with their family problem!” Enomoto was the one who voiced his worry.
“I know.” Kaji said it without any guilt on his face.
“Then why did you still do it?! You—”
Enomoto’s nagging at Kaji became the background noise as Yuna stared at the headphone boy with a still surprised face. Shock? Confused? Stunned? All of that. It was the first time a person could lay a hand on her family member without thinking of the consequences. Especially, when she was being humiliated like that ….
“Ouch!” Her wounded right arm started to hurt again. Yuna took some bandages and antiseptic from her pocket.
—
Kaji’s face was still nonchalant, but honestly, he was annoyed by Enomoto's nagging. His hand just moved on its own, too itchy not to punch that ruthless and ungrateful brat back then; he couldn't help it.
“Whatever. Honestly I was annoyed at that person too. I just didn’t expect you to punch him right away.” Though annoyed, Enomoto still respected Kaji’s choice. “Hey guys! Let’s take this boy and bring him home!” Enomoto then called his classmates to bring Riku with them.
Furin boys went downstairs one by one. Kaji was about to go with them, but he noticed that purple haired girl was still there. She was trying to wrap the wounds she got earlier with bandages but failed to tie it so many times.
‘Just a bit more ….‘ Yuna sighed because the wounds were on her dominant arm, so she only had another arm—the non-dominant one—to wrap it.
To her surprise, someone crouched beside her and grabbed the edge of the bandage on her arm. Yuna looked at the said person; it was that headphone boy again. He didn't say anything and just secured her bandage. She couldn’t help but feel a bit touched by his genuine action. Him, who stood up for her earlier, and then this ….
“I will not say thank you.”
Though, of course her ego was above her actual feelings. She didn’t want such small actions to make her weak and vulnerable. Kaji halted but then continued to tie the bandage tightly, unbothered by her words.
“Don’t need it.” He stood up and immediately walked away downstairs.
•••
The woman in her middle age hugged Riku tightly when they just arrived at Narumi household. Other family members gathered around and patted his hair with relieved expressions.
“Oh my boy …! Glad you’re safe now ….”
Nevertheless, no one came to check on Yuna even though she looked battered and full of dirt. They did not even ask whether she was fine or not. Yuna was already used to it and just watched the scene with her flat face, but almost all Furin boys looked at her in pity. Kaji just observed her reaction; she was too calm like it’s already expected. ‘This family doesn't feel right.’ That was what he thought of them.
“But w-why did he faint? Did the bandits attack him or something?”
Furin boys got tense and started looking at each other uncomfortably at the old lady’s question. There was no way in hell they said ‘your beloved grandson fainted because our class leader punched him’, but Kaji already accepted his consequences. He must take responsibility for it and stepped forward,
“He was—”
“—He fainted because the bandits punched him.” Quickly, Yuna said that with a convincing face like it was the actual truth before Kaji could say anything further. Kaji lifted one eyebrow, never expecting that arrogant girl to stand up for him.
“OH MY! Poor boy! Then, it must be a wound!” Narumi family was shocked.
“Don't worry, there’s no wound. He just fainted because of a huge shock.” Yuna made sure of it.
“Uh … Where am I …?”
But oh, poor Kaji, the lady of fortune wasn't on his side now. Riku slowly regained his consciousness and looked at the Narumi family, Yuna, then Furin boys.
“Y-You! How dare you to—Ouch!” He suddenly got angry when he saw Kaji. “You dare to punch me!” Riku pointed his finger to Kaji which made the Narumi family turn to look at him. The Furin boys got tense again, but Yuna quickly stepped in and shielded Kaji.
‘What …?’ Kaji couldn’t help feeling surprised with her sudden action.
“What’re you saying, Brother? He’s the one who saved you. Maybe the bandits punched you too hard so you forgot.” Once again, Yuna told lies like it was the truth. “It’s better to bring him inside and let him rest. He needs it so much right now.” She glanced at the other family members.
“No way, I … Ugh ….” Riku touched his head again, feeling dizzy. The old lady told their maid and butler to bring him inside.
—
After making sure their beloved grandson was fine and getting a proper rest, the old couple from the Narumi family approached Furin boys with some gifts and snacks.
“Thank you for saving our grandson. We have something for you all, not much but please take this ….“
“That girl was the one who helped us the most.” The words came out of Kaji’s mouth uncontrollably while looking at Yuna. She was a bit surprised, again, to his action.
“Oh … It’s already her duty to save Riku. No need to care about her. We already provide her enough.” The old lady was still smiling.
Furin boys glanced at Yuna then turned their gazes back at the old lady. They all had similar stern faces, and even though Kaji looked at her with his usual flat face, it was already clear that he disliked how this old lady treated Yuna.
“We’re sorry, Ma’am, but we can’t accept that. Umemiya-san said it’s our duty to help people in Makochi, too.” Enomoto rejected the gifts politely.
Honestly, it was a common thing that the villagers gave Furin students some gifts and food after their help, and usually they would accept it with gratitude since Ume never said they couldn’t. However, the Narumi family’s attitude, who didn’t care about Yuna even the slightest, made them uncomfortable. There was no way they wanted ‘gifts’ from such kind of people. The old lady then took back the gifts and just thanked them before all of the Furin boys walked out.
Kaji was the last one who left the Narumi household after making sure no one from his class was left behind. When he passed by Yuna, he took a bit of his time to say something.
“I will not say thank you.”
“I don't need it.” Yuna said it with a twitch on her head, kinda annoyed that he returned her own words earlier.
“Oy, Kaji Ren! What are you doing? Hurry up!” Enomoto shouted at him. Kaji just swirled his lollipop and continued to walk.
‘Kaji Ren, eh … ,’
‘Ren … lotus … .’
His name reminded Yuna of her favorite flower—lotus, the flower that became her inspiration because it could still bloom beautifully even on a muddy land—and the pendant bracelet which she got from her martial arts teacher back then. Its aromatic fragrance always helped her to calm down. She always thought that maybe, just maybe … someday she could be like that flower too ….
Yuna looked at him until that platinum blonde-haired boy was out of her sight.
With his purity and strength, he’s like the lotus itself … just like his name …. Is it possible if she believes he can guide her too …? Well, it's just her shameless hope.

𝐬𝐚𝐤𝐮𝐫𝐚.
- big on acts of service BUT IS HORRIBLE AT HIDING HOW MUCH HE LIKES DOING STUFF FOR YOU. hear me out. he’d be the one opening doors for you, covering your head with his jacket when it’s raining outside (he’s getting soaked and you nag him about getting sick)…. all that. He’s blushing profusely. When you smile up at him, he immediately smiles back but then he claps a hand over his mouth to hide it. Give him time ok he’ll come around.
- he loves you. of course that’s a given because you’re his lover BUT BUT. he love LOVES you. like a lot. so much that it’s kind of painful, you know what I mean? Like he wants to express it so friggin bad, but he doesn’t know how to. His words escape him, he panics when he makes a move. He’s spent many a night just staring down at you with the most lovestruck eyes while you’re fast asleep. Tears falling from his eyes because he’s so happy you chose HIM of all people. He never thought he’d be worthy of being loved, of being trusted, of being CONSIDERED. You gave all of that to him and more. GOD he loves you.
- is super conflicted about PDA lol sometimes he wants to hold your hand in public, kiss you all over, hug you, but god damn it he’s blushing from head to toe whenever he’s around you. He’s got the cuteness aggression fever but he can’t let it ouuuttttt 🗣️🗣️🗣️
𝐮𝐦𝐞.
- EVERYTHING IS HIS LOVE LANGUAGE. Like, if you’re not into physical touch, he’d do something else for you. If you’re not the acts of service type and you wanna do stuff yourself, that’s cool too!!! He can manage!!!! Although he’d want to help you out so bad but…. He’s cheering on you from the sidelines. On that note, he’s your biggest (and loudest) cheerleader! You’d have an achievement and no matter how small or big it is, his friends and neighbors and the random strangers he passes by know about it and how amazing you are. BECAUSE YOU ARE.
- loves it when you help him out in the garden hehehe loves it extra if you know how to take care of the veggies and fruits hehehehe like, you’d be tending to the potted plants and he’s checking for aphids on the other side of the garden. You’re actively pruning the basil the right way so it’d grow bushier, you’re hand pollinating the pumpkins, you even suggested on doing the three sisters method so you’d yield more harvest in the coming months. He may or may not have begged you to marry him once or fifty times every time he’s caught you doing that. (Ofc you’ve said yes once or fifty times lol)
- WORST CUTENESS AGGRESSION FEVER SUFFERER. You cannot convince me otherwise. You’d be doing the most mundane things, walking down the road with him, lounging on the couch with your belly out and body contorted in the most unattractive position, just STANDING THERE….. he’s immediately on you, peppering kisses everywhere his lips can reach, hugging you so close, rubbing his face all over youdbjfjdndnnd CUTENESS AGGRESSION IS UMEMIYA AND UMEMIYA IS CUTENESS AGGRESSION. If he could he’d bite you. He has btw. On multiple occasions. The tiniest, softest chomp though.
- never fails to tell you how much he loves you. On the daily, on the fly, every time he meets your eyes. “I love you” so easily slips from his lips, he expresses it so easily but it never loses its meaning with him. He means it every time he utters those three words. You can feel it too. Just… don’t ask him to elaborate because he’d drop anything he’s doing just to explain to you as to how and why and what and where and—uh oh is he crying?????
𝐌𝐎𝐑𝐄 𝐁𝐎𝐘𝐅𝐈𝐄𝐒 𝐔𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐑 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐂𝐔𝐓.
𝐤𝐚𝐣𝐢.
- WOULD MAKE PLAYLISTS FOR YOU. Hear me out again. He’s horrible with words ok? Like he’s thorny. He’d say the meanest things accidentally sometimes without him realizing that. So, he makes playlists for you. He’s made one for himself when he first realized he had a crush on you, btw. Don’t tell him I told you. Notice how he’s had his headphones on his head whenever you first started talking to him? Yeah he was listening to it when he saw you passing by. Best music taste btw. Listens to all genres too like he doesn’t discriminate. Get him started on some hardcore bands though, he’s yapping. Eyebrows furrowed. (He likes rowdy places but doesn’t get rowdy? Canonically too? Yeah the man’s outside the pit pushing the crowdkillers away from you. CATCH HIM IN THE PIT THOUGH OH MY GOD THAT’S A CROWDKILLER RIGHT THERE.) on that note, he loves going to gigs with you. You wanna go check a local band? He’s immediately got ticket stubs for their next gig.
- another acts of service guy. You see those tiktoks of girls grabbing something under the table and the guy holding the corner of the table so she wouldn’t accidentally hit it? Or like when you got full hands and you can’t go to open the door, the guy’s materialized beside you, opening it for you? Yeah that’s him. Real subtle about it though. Don’t bring attention to it pls unless you want him to not look at you for a couple of minutes (he’s blushing pls be patient)
- the type to nag at you when you get hurt. Man oh MAN does he nag. He’s gone through one too many fights already so he knows how to patch himself up real nice. But when YOU get hurt, he’s immediately digging through his first aid kit, cleaning your wound and patching you up while nagging you to be more careful next time, what if he wasn’t around to help, what if this what if that grumble grumble. He’s got his lollipop in his mouth btw. Pull it out for a second and GIVE HIM THE BIGGEST SMOOCH TO SHUT HIM UP PLEASE. Sweetest kisses. Both literally and figuratively 🥹
𝐬𝐮𝐨.
- GENTLEMAN GENTLEMAN GENTLEMAN. Oh my god if you don’t want attention drawn to the both of you, never bring Suo out in public!!!!!!!! He does the most for you so effortlessly, so beautifully, people swoon and get jealous because of it. The type to give you flowers too. Not just on special occasions too. And not just flowers in a bouquet. No. The flowers are already arranged in a vase so you wouldn’t have to worry about grabbing a vase yourself. Goodness your normal dates would seem so extravagant when he’s around. You’d be eating at a McDonald’s and you’re looking over at your lover and he looks so dashing and he smells so good and he’s got the softest smile anfjdjjdj UGHHHHHH!!!!!! But if you’re not into flowers, he’d find some other way to express his love for you in a different way. Whatever you’re comfortable with, he’s down for.
- big tease. He likes seeing you squirm and pout when he’s playing a little prank on you. You swear you can see a slight blush on his cheeks when you pout but it’s so so subtle you think it’s the lighting.
- is not afraid to express how much he absolutely LOVES you. If you need reassurance, he’s pulling you to the side to talk about it. If you need him to kiss you more, oh he’s doing THAT AND MORE. If you’re the jealous type, even better. He’s smooching you in front of the person you think is flirting with him. But if you’re not into that intense stuff, he’s pulling you into the conversation, keeping a hand on your waist and looking over to you for an extra opinion. Lays on the “dove”, “my love”, “my sweet”, “my heart”, T H I C K . And I fucking mean THICK.
𝐤𝐢𝐫𝐲𝐮.
- *dreamy sigh* a fucking dreamboat is what he is. You could never, EVER go wrong with kiryu, man. I swear. A gentleman through and through. Takes you on spontaneous dates, likes going to arcades with you and winning you the biggest plushie!!!! (he’s really good at it), would take you on perfume dates (HE SMELLS GOOD CANONICALLY UGH), would even do your make up for you. Ugh. UGH. He’d be the best partner you could ever ask for. Y’know those perfect couples on tiktok? That’s you and him. But it’s all genuine, baby. That’s just how he loves.
- big on matching outfits. But not the blatant matching ones, no. Like, same color palettes, same textures, YES. YES. The outfit brainstorming is part of your dates too. He’d let you borrow his clothes if you want, he’d even let you spritz some of his most expensive perfumes 😭!!!!
- SKINCARE DATES TOO. WOAH WOAH WOAH. like, he has a AM/PM routine but he'd love to do it with you! he'd suggest all the best stuff for your skin, check if your skin's more on the dry side, oily side, yes. your man knows his shit and it SHOWS. your skin's practically glowing when you're with him. boyfriend air doesn't exist.
- IF YOU NEED REASSURANCE AND A HYPEMAN HE IS YOUR FUCKING GUY I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH. God he’d see you looking at yourself in the mirror, fussing over how you look and practically putting yourself down, his heart would break. Like, how could you not see how he sees you? He’s taking you in his arms and telling you everything he absolutely adores about you, how beautiful you are, showering you with praise on the sweetest most kiryu way possible. He’s peppering kisses along your tear streaked cheeks until you’re smiling again. “There’s that smile,” he says as he pulls away, cupping your face in his hands. Ugh he even has the most lovesick puppydog eyes for you. “I love you, alright? So much,” he kisses your forehead, “So, So much.” He whispers into your hairline. GOOOOODDDDDDD 🫂 and did I say HYPEMAN? I mean it. Do a little spin for him in your new clothes and he’s screaming and yelling and taking so much pictures of you!!!!! His instagram feed’s full of you, your couple photos, your dates… practically a fan account of your relationship. He loves you and he loves loving you!!!!!!!!! and if you're the jealous type, he'd be so patient with you. he'd reassure you to the moon and back!!! ofc since he's popular with girls, he'd do his best to reassure you that he only has his eyes on you and you alone.
- gaming nights with kiryu. Oh Gaming Nights With Kiryu please save me gaming nights with kiryu. He’s got a whole set up ready for the both of you, his PS5 hot and ready, snacks opened. It’s a special thing for the both of you too! He decorates his apartment in the theme of the game you’re both playing, horror game? His apartment looks like a horror house. Smash bros? BET. (He’ll be smashing you by the end of the night gehrhhrhehehehHgdhdhs). I know he’s got LED strips so he’s using that to his advantage too. Ok I’m getting carried away. Kiryu best partner best lover best everything.
𝐭𝐨𝐠𝐚𝐦𝐞.
- *RIPS SHIRT OPEN LIKE A WEREWOLF GRGEGGRHEHE BARKING!!!!!* TOGAMEEEEE!!!!!!! 🗣️🗣️🗣️ I am apologizing for this part, love. I’m gonna go hard.
- canonically doesn’t text. Only leaves you on read. Calling him though? CALLING HIM?? 🫠 he’s answering as soon as it rings. None of that “wait until the third ring” baloney. His baby’s calling. If he’s doing something before you called, HE’S DROPPING IT FOR YOU. And he answers in that deep voice of his and 🫠🫠🫠 sigh. You guys stay on the phone for hours. He’s the type to do things while he’s calling you too. If you’re away and he can’t be with you, he’d love it if you could stay on the phone with him for way longer too. Big on facetiming too. He’s fallen asleep with facetime on. You have a collection of screenshots of his pretty sleeping face. You’ve fallen asleep on facetime too. He doesn’t have as much screenshots though and he haaaates himself for it because he spends so much time just staring at you through his phone, smiling to himself like. FUCK he’s so in love with you!!!!! YOU!!!! 🗣️🗣️🗣️ plus he’s got nervous shaky hands so hehe first time you guys facetimed you weren’t a couple yet. You fell asleep and he tried taking a screenshot and dropped his phone. The sound woke you up lol you give him shit about that moment sometimes, teasing him. He’s a blushing mess, elbowing you gently so you’d stop.
- AWKWARD TOGAME WHEN YOU GUYS FIRST DATED UGH SHIIIITTTTT!!!!! 🗣️🗣️🗣️ he’s canonically bad with groups of people and people in general. Choji had to adopt him forcefully into shishitoren ok? So that translates so SO well to you and your relationship with him. He may or may not have (allegedly, for legal reasons) asked for romance advice from Choji. He may or may not have (again, allegedly) tried that yawning and stretching trick so he could rest his arm behind you. No. Nope. Didn’t hear it from me.
- awkward and SHY togame when he made the first move on you!!!!!!! He had a ramune bottle in his hand because it was shaking so bad he couldn’t control it. You GAVE HIM HIS FIRST KISS DHHRHDHRRRRAAAAGHHH 🗣️🗣️🐺 you had to hold his other hand to stop it from trembling. Yours were too tbh hehe made him feel a bit better because you were just as nervous as he is.
- once you both are super into the relationship though, my goodness expect togame to be THE BEST PARTNER. See how he was with Choji? Did anything and everything to keep his smile? He’d do that for you too. Amp it up to a 100. His surprises are simple, never was one for grand gestures. But goodness you can feel the effort. Even employed some help from his old man pals at the community baths 🫠
- speaking of the old men, THEY WERE THE FIRST PEOPLE TO KNOW ABOUT HIS CRUSH ON YOU!!!!! Like, they were doting on togame when he expressed he’s never felt this way for someone before, how he can feel his heart racing and his face heating up when you’re around. They knew he was in love with you before he knew for himself.
- OF COURSE THEY KNEW YOUUU. So when you wanted to get into a relationship with togame, knowing it’s serious now, you went out of your way to meet up with the group of old men!!!! There, you discovered that togame has been talking about you nonstop. They already loved you for him before you formally met!!!!! They gave you their collective blessing, of course. You both are their grandchildren in their eyes.
- togame CAN COOK. EXPECT HIM TO COOK FOR YOU CONSTANTLY. And if you can cook, EVEN BETTER. Cooking dates, farmer’s market dates, izakaya dates, GASTRONOMY! You often surprise each other with decorated lunch boxes.
- nap dates all the time. Like, when you’re not bumping uglies or cooking or bonding with your friends, you both are asleep in each other’s arms. He gives the best hugs too. Like, those hugs that just cover you, you know?
- obviously, he loves you. But god damn it he wants to scream it into the world!!!! With the way he treats you though, constantly worrying about you, being there at your beck and call, pressing kisses into the crown of your head whenever you’re next to each other, he doesn’t need to scream it or utter a single word. You can just see the love he has for you. Everyone knows it.
- has thought about marrying you a couple times already. The type to call you his spouse teasingly too just to see you blush. He cannot wait to call you that officially. If he were good at technology, he would definitely have a pinterest board ready lol
