(This is my first time trying to write a ff im sorry of anything sounds off 😭)
ENJOYYYY 💗
Sleep did not come easily for you.
You tossed and turned but to no avail; cgecking your phone for the time:
3:47am.
Alas, this wasnt the first time you had gotten a message from your boyfriend, Sae, about how he had a match to play, against FC Barcha specifically, and therefore, would result in him leaving you to succumb to the loneliness of your shared bedroom. You almost cried at the thought of all your plans for his birthday- all to waste, you thought as you looked at the gifts you had spent ages on, carefully wrapping and decorating each one.
The soft taps of rain knocking on the glass windows of your shared penthouse was the only sound that accompanied you in your moment of solitude, as you sat there in an attempt to reassure yourself. Itll be okay. You can celebrate it together when he gets back…right?
But it just wouldnt feel the same…I mean- Sae never really felt like the type of person to be excited over a birthday. He’d call it tepid and continue life like a normal day.
4:02am
You sat in your shared bed, staring at your phone with unconscious tears falling down your face. Realising this, you decided to admit the harsh truth of your boyfriend’s text and go to sleep, deciding not to ruin your (already-ruined) sleep schedule. You sat up from the couch and walked over to your shared bedroom to change into a comfortable outfit: a spare jersey Sae left you and a pair of silk sleeping shorts. As you snuggled into bed, you grabbed the plushie he had bought you for your birthday once and decided it to be his replacement: your means of comfort, as sleep overtook you.
7:24am
You were still in the depths of dreamland as the soft sounds of keys was heard. The faint rustling of a few bags lazily placed on the coffee table in the living room as *he* made his way towards the bedroom.
The scene before him left a knife in his heart.
You were laying there: hair all messed up, mascara still stained on your face from the tears last night, drool all over the pillow, wearing *his* jersey as if it were your lifeline (and he still looked at your sleeping figure as if you held the stars and fell in love all over again.) He cursed himself for the sight he caused: how upset he had made you with that single text. He knew how much birthdays meant to you- even if he himself brushed it off as childish.
He lazily shrugged his hoodie and joggers off, and placed some more confortable clothes on before settling himself under the duvet, hugging your figure from the waist behind as he rested his chin against your shoulder.
“Im sorry” he whispers in your ear, with a kiss on your shoulder, soft but also careful in an attempt not to wake you.
9:47
You opened your eyes slowly, taking in the warm golden glow of the morning that seeped through your windows; you smiled at such a beautiful sight, but memories of last night came flooding into your mind, making your smile fade. Shaking your head violently as if to remove those thoughts, you got up out of bed. Correction: you *tried* getting out of bed. If it werent for that oh-so familiar hold around your waist. You swivelled around in a panic only to be met by…
“Sae…?”
“Mmh, morning cariño. How did you sleep?”
Your eyes shot open, all of the sleepiness you felt earlier dissipating like water evaporating, your mouth held open in a gasp.
He looked ethereal: the morning glow cast upon his face, the rare sight of his bangs down, his eyes still closed.
“Sae?! I-i thought you had a match- what are you doi-“
He immediately shut you up with a kiss, which you reciprocated: feelings of guilt and neglection behind it were discarded in that one act of love that you had been craving for so long. When he pulled away, he muttered several apologies for even *thinking* about leaving you alone during the most important part of your relationship so far. How could he be so cruel!
“Im sorry for that, i couldnt leave you alone like this. Fuck, i made you cry aswell…”
He held your face in his hands as he grabbed some wipes from your bedside table whilst still laying next to you: wiping off the smudged mascara left delicately while mumbling constant words of reassurance; taking in his concerned features and how pretty he looked. You just missed him so much…
-
“So i went to the store yesterday and i bought this suuper cute seagull plushie!! Because i knew you liked them! And i got this soccer ball because it looked so cute in pink i just couldnt resist!’ And…”
Sae sat on the floor infront of you sitting on the couch, as he looked at you explaining everything you bought him for his birthday, with that huge smile on your face as you told him multiple different stories about each item: a seagull plushie, a pink soccer ball, his favourite brand of chocolates, flowers the same colour as his eyes, and a letter you hand-wrote for him! He wouldnt show it on his face, but every single thing you bought for him made his heart warm up (and his ears went pink aswell, but he gets flustered when you mention it!).
“I know it isnt much…these are just cheap gifts- but i tried to get things i knew youd like…and i-“
Before you could even continue rambling on about how the gifts were nothing compared to what he gives you (price-wise), he shut you up again with another kiss.
“I love you so much, happy birthday baby.”
“Happy birthday to me, thank you cariño” He whispers into your neck as he rummages through the *huge* miniso bag he had hidden behind the couch last night. Pulling out an enormous hello kitty plushie and a very well-hidden…box?
“Wait! But its your birthday not mine!! Why are you giving me gifts…” you gasped in awe at the plushie but couldnt help feeling a bit guilty that he beat all your gifts- even though it was HIS birthday :(
“Had to pay you back somehow for what i did. Im sorry amor.”
“Its okay…” you said, with that signature bright smile on your face that reminded Sae of one of the (many) reasons why he fell in love with you.
Hugging him tightly you gave him a quick peck on the lips, almost as if to tease him, before diverting your attention to the plushie. It was twice the size of you!!
Smiling to yourself, you skipped over to your shared bedroom, as Sae followed behind you, carefully organising your plushie onto your desk: giggling as you placed your Hello Kitty plushie next to the seagull one you had bought for Sae. The soft sound of footsteps was heard from behind you as you turned around to Sae walking in.
“I forgot your last gift, it must have slipped my mind…” He whispers next to your ear, kissing the top of your head from behind.
“This plushie is more than enough though...did you forget whose birthday it is?!”
“Not necessarily, but consider these a thank you gift for all the gifts you got for me, querida.”
You giggle as he pulls you over to he large mirror upon your vanity. Opening the box behind you as you waited impatiently, shuffling and swinging your legs. Sae came over eventually and brushed your hair aside, as the cold jewel metal came into contact with your neck. You stared in awe at the silver necklace now decorating your skin - pink jewels adorned in the intricate patterns woven around as if the silver was a spider’s silk.
“Sae, its…beautiful…i dont know what to say-“
“You dont need to say anything, just take it.” He mumbled as he hugged you from behind, resting his head on top of yours as he looked at you from the mirror reflection.
This wasn’t the first time he’d spent money (equivalent to the average person’s yearly salary) on you and was so nonchalant about it - you almost wanted to strangle him for it if it werent for the fact that he was whispering sweet nothings into your ear while rubbing circles on your waist which turned you into nothing but a blushing mess…♡
