Natsume never tried to hide how fond he was of you — you were special to him, and he treated you as such. Everyone else knew it, too! After all, whenever he looked at you, the warm smile that reached all the way down to his core was unmistakable and impossible to mask. However, he never rushed to put a label on what the two of you had, for fear that he might scare you — or even himself — away.
But that doesn’t mean it would never happen. “Partner” is a serious word, and he wanted to take the time to ponder it, as well as gauge whether or not you felt the same. With some light encouragement from his friends, and much self-reflection, he’d finally work up the courage to confess in a serious, meaningful way.

“wh— mugi,” you weakly protest, blinking the sleep away from your eyes. “mugi, c’mon…”
the boy giggles, offering you a closed-eye smile in response. “good morning!” he chirps, ever the cheerful bluebird. “did you sleep well?”
you make a vague sound, neither saying yes nor no. on one hand, yes — you have the day off from work (due to a certain occasion), and you allowed yourself to sleep in just a little bit, as a treat. on the other… you don’t think you like waking up to the other side of your bed empty, devoid of the love of your life. today, you opened your eyes to a nicely fluffed pillow next to yours, mugi’s glasses gone from the nightstand, and the covers snugly wrapped around you — the pang of disappointment immediately soured the good mood you had from sleeping so well.
“mugi…” exasperatedly dragging out the syllables of his name, you shuffle into the kitchen. a delicious aroma wafts through the air, and you can’t help the deep inhale you take… tsumugi’s always been a great cook. he’s wearing the silly frilled deep red apron you own — the apron strings tied into a perfect bow against his back. you huff in amusement. “and why are you up so early?”
tsumugi only smiles sweetly, waving a spatula at you in response.
slowly, you snake your arms around his waist, nuzzling your nose into the juncture between his neck and shoulders. “red looks good on you,” you mumble, lips pressed to his back. he shivers at the ghost of your breath dancing across his skin, a flustered laugh leaving him. “you think so?”
you hum in confirmation, before pressing a kiss to his jaw. “i can’t believe you’re making breakfast today,” you complain lightheartedly, lamenting the delicious breakfast spread you had planned to cook today. “but i’ll make it up to you today. happy birthday, tsumugi.”
When Madara thinks about you, it brings forth feelings that are hard to explain. What comes to his mind first, when your name is spoken? It’s glimpses, moments frozen in time; his name on your lips, the upwards quirk of your smile, the sly glint in your eyes as you tease.
He’s all smiles when you’re around—it’s hard not to be. You bring a sense of joy, of lightness to him that he thought he might have lost. Hand in hand, he would go anywhere with you.
When he kisses you, it’s slow and gentle. He’s savoring it because you have time now. Maybe not all the time in the world, because it’s never a guarantee, but you have time enough to do some of the things you want to do. To sit next to each other on the couch and watch bad movies. To laugh yourselves to sleep. To love and be loved in turn.
Madara wraps his arms around your waist in greeting and hoists you into the air. As you giggle, his grin grows wider; happiness is infectious after all. To have something like this, something soft and sweet is a dream come true.
His pinkie links itself with yours when you stroll together, silent affirmations that say I’m here and I’m yours. Anchoring the two of you to this mortal plane, so he does not fade into the darkness and you do not lose yourself in the light. It’s the little things that make this relationship what it is, filling it with love and joy.
Texts sent nearing midnight, an exchange of love and promise. Hi, I love you. I’m counting the stars and thinking about your smile. I miss you when you’re not around but you’re always in my heart. Stay safe. I love you. I love you. I love you. Three times for luck because third time’s the charm.
Sometimes, when all seems lost and Madara fears himself beyond saving, he thinks of you. For if you can bear your heart to him, if you can hold him close and whisper of your love, then he cannot be all that bad. He is broken but not unfixable. Love does not mend all things, but time does and soon Madara’s hurts will be scars smoothed away by the ticking of the clock.
You two will be never be happier then you are now.
That’s a lie. You two are happy right now and you will continue to be happy for the rest of your days, whether alone or together. Hopefully together, Madara says, with his fingers crossed. Hopefully together.
