“aki.”
the tall devil hunter gave you an unresponsive hum as his long, slender fingers threaded through ebony locks.
“aki.”
“what.”
he still wasn’t paying attention to you.
heaving a sigh, you slid off of your seat and made your way over to the towering man who was fixing his mussed up hair in the mirror.
“aki hayakawa.” you slipped your arms underneath his shoulders, reaching up to his neck and grabbing his loosened tie.
perching your chin on his shoulder, you gazed at the reflection of the two of you in the mirror as you slowly slid the knot of his tie up to his neck to tighten it, inch by exhilarating inch.
oh, aki was paying attention to you now.
you could feel his adam’s apple bob underneath your soft lips as you pressed a light kiss to his vulnerable neck, never breaking eye contact with his reflection.
the tie was already more than tight enough, but this was too good.
you spotted something akin to panic flicker inside of aki’s dark, brooding eyes as you continued to slide the knot higher and higher and higher.
his entire body was rigid as he rasped out, “(y/n).” his fearful gaze pleaded with yours in the mirror.
“aki.” the thickest part of the tie nearly touching his chin, you stroked the side of his sharp jawline with your thumb, admiring his reddening face in the mirror and letting out a sultry giggle. “oops, too tight.”
you figured he deserved some sort of grace from you, but he was ignoring you in the first place. so he still needed some punishment.
grabbing hold of his sturdy shoulders, you spun him around until the two of you were face to face. you slid your hands tantalizingly down his toned chest, admiring the firm muscles underneath his white dress shirt before slipping his silk tie in between your fingers once again.
you were drunk off of his vulnerability. the way he begged with his eyes, pleading for you to free him from his constraints. his quiet, strained groans as he tried to maintain his composure while he slowly grew asphyxiated.
it was intoxicating.
raising your eyebrows suggestively, you placed two hands around the thick knot of fabric underneath his chin. as a tiny reward for his patience, you pressed a lingering kiss on the tip of his sharp jawline, just shy from his needy lips.
“ngh… (y/n). enough.” he warned, yet it was so hard to take him seriously as the leash was in your hands, not his.
you clicked your tongue in disapproval. “tsk, i’m the one in control here, hayakawa-san.” your dancing fingers trickled down to the knot just inches away from your face. you moved your challenging gaze up to aki’s, whose brows were furrowed in pain, annoyance, and.. restraint. “well, shall we?”
“hah…” he squeezed his eyes shut. “yes, please.”
a smirk spread across your playful lips at his desperation. “good boy,” you whispered, fingers working to swiftly loosen the knot.
as soon as you did, a strong hand grabbed the back of your head, tugging your hair back as gasping lips pressed against yours.
you see, aki wasn’t only begging for oxygen, he was begging for your lips.
those slender fingers that were once running through his ebony hair were now traveling up your collarbone to your neck. a startled gasp escaped your throat as his grip became vice, his lips moving to growl into your ear.
“now it’s my turn to shut you up.”

“whyy?” you whined.
“come here.” nagi replied, a stoic look on his face.
reluctantly, you trudged over until you were standing directly in front of your towering boyfriend, a pout on your lips. “what is it?”
he stared into your eyes for a quiet moment before placing a gentle hand onto your cheek, cradling it in his palm.
“wh-wha-what are you…”
bending down until his eyes were level with yours, he peered into your panicked orbs, flitting his gaze back and forth between them.
“n-nagi…” you felt your lips part as your cheek heated up in his warm palm. nagi rarely, if ever, showed any sort of affection like this. “w-what’s the occasion?”
he leaned in closer to you, his hand never leaving your cheek. he was so, so close. impossibly close.
“you…” he whispered, engulfing your vision.
he was so pretty.
“you…" his eyes traveled own to your lips. "you have something on your face.”
horrified, your hands flew instinctively to your face, covering your eyes in mortification. “n-nagi!” you cried, blushing like mad with something other than affection as you lightly pushed him away.
he chuckled softly, his eyes crinkling up at the corners as his face glowed with a once-in-a-lifetime expression. his precious smile. "gotcha," he whispered.
you peeked through the slits of your fingers at your boyfriend who was still towering over you and staring into your eyes affectionately. with a gentle touch, nagi slowly slid your hands away from your face and your cheek found its way into his palm once again.
pulling you in close, he rested his forehead against yours.
"you're so cute..." he pressed a featherlight kiss to your temple, whispering against your hairline. "i love you."

A/N: i got four separate requests for relationship hcs for these blue lock boys so i decided to combine them! enjoy :)
RIN
ok so one day you wanted to do some cute couple things™ with your beloved rin for the first time
so you settled on something tame and rejuvenating: bubble face masks!
if he was being honest, the concept actually intrigued rin quite a bit
and his parents always nagged him to keep his skin looking “youthful” to offset all his scowling, so… why not?
you were ecstatic, and you broke out the cute fluffy animal headbands that keep your hair out of your face
rin… wearing one… it was a sight you would cherish in your heart forever and tease him about too ;)
of course you took TONS of pictures to his dismay, and set it as your lock screen because oh my goodness he looks ADORABLE
like just imagine his little pout >:< AHHH
a cute little thing he does is when he’s holding your hand, he’ll softly rub your knuckle with his finger
it’s so gentle it nearly brought you to tears the first time he did it (and every time after)
and he didn’t even know he did it until you told him it was an adorable quirk of his and he was FLOORED
like “i… i do.. that???”
also, i feel like his love language is a combination of quality time and physical touch
since he struggles with expressing his feelings for you through words, he does it through his touch
he’s a simple guy; just being around you is more than enough to make his heart feel so, so warm
rin also loves the dark, so dark + quality time + physical touch = what?
MOVIE NIGHT DATE!!
inside the comfort of your own home, of course
just imagine the coziness of being snuggled up in his arms, a blanket wrapped around the two of you as you curl up in the corner of the couch
and just basking in the feeling of being in the arms of the love of your life
you can’t even focus on the movie because you’re just savoring the feeling of his arms wrapped around you as he presses soft kisses to your temple
no more than a couple words are exchanged between the two of you, but the volume of your love is astounding <3
RAICHI
raichi is very. VERY protective of you out in public
like he’ll always have an arm around your waist while he glares daggers at anyone who even enters a six feet radius of you
social distancing who? 🙄
he’s like actually FERAL LMFAOO HE’LL FR GROWL AT GUYS WHO GET A LIL TOO FRIENDLY WITH YOU
he may be an aggressive rottweiler, but he’s your aggressive rottweiler <3
around other people, he would never show any sort of affection or softness
because who are we kidding, he’s raichi
he’s totally the type to noogie you and put you in an affectionate headlock around people
and his friends are like …. are you sure you two are dating ?? 😭
in private though, when it’s just the two of you, it’s like he’s a completely different person
gentle back hugs, tucking his chin onto your shoulder, pressing a soft kiss to your neck, yeah <3
he just feels really relaxed when the two of you are along together
so you two often take naps together, putting on a random movie in the background as you fall asleep in his arms
he thinks you look so adorable while sleeping, it’s definitely his lock screen
raichi’s favorite type of kiss is the passionate, celebratory kiss
like the picking you up, spinning you around on the field after scoring a winning goal with your lips smushed together kiss
orrr the drowsy, “im about to fall asleep but i love you so much” kiss as he holds you tighter in his arms
either way, he’s a feral boi on the streets, but a fluffy bby in ur arms <3
BAROU
acts of service is one-thousand percent his love language
his ideal romantic date is spending the entire day with his beloved partner
… washing the dishes together.
like, DUDE!
ANYWAYS, he loves to clean, but he also loves you, so he’s torn
luckily you had the amazing idea to combine both, and the two of you spent the entire day cleaning the house and fooling around together
unluckily, that’s all the two of you will ever do now
and you’re cursing yourself for not emphasizing that a Cleaning Date was a ONE TIME THING!!! one time.
don’t worry though, he still has some other great date ideas thanks to your not so subtle hints!
he’s a godsend at everything around the house though, not just cleaning
so that includes cooking and baking too!
it’s actually ADORABLE how cute he is with an apron on while he’s in the kitchen
he’s so gentle and careful with the measurements and utensils, its just so endearing
he’ll let you sneak little taste-tests of whatever he’s making
and whenever you give him your signature “mm!” it makes his stubborn lil heart so, so happy
he’d never say it out loud, but the tiny smile on his face is more than enough proof
and it’s not a lie, he is AMAZING in the kitchen; you could give him a bag of completely unrelated, even grotesque ingredients and he’d whip up something delicious in no time!
i feel like barou also thoroughly enjoys dates where the two of you can just enjoy each other’s company, since he’s not known for being amazing with his words
think aquariums, museums, art exhibitions, and things of the like
he’ll just hold your hand as the two of you venture throughout the place, marveling at all of the incredible displays
he just loves the feeling of appreciating the stunning exhibits while also appreciating his favorite person in the world <3
TOKIMITSU
anxious bby boy!!!
so panicked, so worried if he’s doing everything right
you have to constantly reassure him, but its 100% fine with you because he’s just SO PRECIOUS
at the beginning of your relationship, he would always be so paranoid.. of like EVERYTHING
“i accidentally touched your shoulder, i’m so sorry!” “i hope i didn’t walk too close to you on the way home..”
you know he has the best intentions, but you actually thought he was afraid of you 😭
later, of course, he eventually warmed up to you, and he’s never been more comfortable with anyone else :)
like if he’s in a group he’ll immediately seek you out and cling onto you like a scared puppy to its mother
so of course in public, he’ll always hold onto the sleeve of your shirt or your arm
it’s funny if he’s taller, because it looks like a child clutching onto their mom
… if the child was six feet tall and built like a brick wall 😭
aNYWAYS, you’re like his comfort person
he feels like he can always relax and let go of his pent-up tension whenever you’re around <3
cuddles with him are the absolute best
he’s a pretty big guy who loves to be little spoon
and holding him in your arms, comforting him until he’s not panicked about anything and everything is just so rewarding
like you can physically feel the anxiousness release from his body when you’re cuddling with him
and he falls asleep so quickly
and his soft lil snores are so cute awWW
all that worrying is completely washed away when your arms are wrapped securely around him <3
if you enjoyed this post, likes and reblogs are much appreciated :) feel free to request here, and make sure to read the rules first! have a lovely day everyone <3
A/N: OH MY GOODNESS THIS WAS AN ABSOLUTE BLAST TO WRITE, i was laughing so much but also… 👀 NEJI GETS SPICYYY???
PROMPT: person a kisses person b in order to protect their identities, but is the kiss completely professional? or is there something else...?
LINK TO EVENT!
this mission was so stupid.
you and team nine were assigned to scour through the busy streets of the city to hunt down the mysterious red-haired villain at the same time he was searching for the four of you.
so, as you could imagine, it involved both parties endlessly scrambling around the bustling city, rushing to find the other first.
“let’s split up into pairs! me and tenten, you and neji!” lee whispered to you from around the corner of the building where you and your team were hiding. “dang it, i wish we had radio comms this time!”
suddenly, he snatched something out of midair, his expression brightening in an instant. “NEJI!! you brought them!”
“shut up, you’re so loud!” neji hissed from your other side, handing you a mini earpiece before slipping one onto himself. “it’s a plan. lee, give the other radio to tenten. don’t yell into the microphone this time.”
“OKAY!!!” lee’s booming voice exploding into your ear nearly ruptured your poor, precious eardrums.
the three victims of lee’s amplified exclamation instinctively pulled their earpieces out of their ears. LEE!!”
“wha? oh! did i do it again?” although his tone was apologetic, the amused look on his face said otherwise.
“yes, you did!” after slowly recovering from your ringing ears, you spoke in the comms again to test them. “okay, let’s try to corner him in the alleyway to the west. me and neji will try to capture him, but stay close for backup.”
“roger that! let’s go, tenten!” lee and his partner sped off while you and neji darted in the other direction.
the two of you found yourselves in a slummy alleyway, the kind where drunk couples stumble into to do… things.
“well, it could be worse, huh?” as soon as you spoke, a raccoon darted out from a nearby dumpster, slipping in between your legs. “shit!”
neji let out a small, low chuckle. “i can tolerate trash rats for a bit.”
just then, the faintest sound of footsteps sounded from a few feet away, catching you and neji’s attention at the same time.
pressing your backs to the wall, the two of you listened closely, analyzing the rhythm and the tone of the approaching footsteps.
you felt a nudge at your side and a whisper in your ear. “it’s him.”
suddenly, a maniac laugh that made your blood curdle boomed from just around the corner.
“thanks for the tip, lil raccoon. i know you’re in there!”
panic rose from your chest to your throat as you heard the unmistakable clink of a weapon unsheathing. every single muscle in your body tensed up in fear. holding your breath quieter than you’ve ever held it before, you slid your gaze up to neji, whose eyebrows furrowed in concentration.
he’d get you out of this mess. he’d think of a plan.
you felt a gentle hand placed on yours and heard a soft “go with it”.
then you felt lips pressed fiercely to yours, the hands that were on yours just a split second ago now cupping your face and your neck as tongues clashed fervently together.
“mmn—!” you couldn’t stop the squeal of surprise from slipping from your throat as neji’s mouth continued to push against yours, an exaggerated groan escaping from him.
oh. so that’s what his brilliant plan was.
you wrapped your leg enticingly around the back of his thighs, pulling him in closer to you as your arms slid tantalizingly up the wall. neji’s lips moved to attack your neck, shielding both of your faces with the back of his head as the footsteps came to a stop behind you.
“aha!” the gravelly voice barked. you caught the tiniest glimpse of the towering red-haired man pointing triumphantly at the two of you, expecting two ninjas but finding a couple in a heated makeout session instead.
neji bit at your neck as if commanding you to do something, so you complied, letting out a giggly squeal and a soft sigh.
you heard the quietest chuckle from neji as he continued to passionately kiss your neck.
oh, this was too good.
“what the— HEY! WHAT’RE YOU TWO DOIN’ HERE?!
“mm, hey, don’t do that here!” you whined, trying to disturb your target enough for him to leave.
cupping your chin and tilting it upwards, neji crushed his lips against yours once again. his cheeks were flushed with the deepest red you’ve ever seen, struggling to stay in character as he replied, “i’ll do whatever— whatever i want with you, no matter who’s watching.”
it took everything in your body not to burst out into laughter right there and then, but the pure pleasure of his tongue moving against yours was more than enough to keep your giggles at bay. neji was… a really good kisser.
out of the corner of your eye, you saw the man gaping at the two of you in absolute horror. a smirk formed on your lips as neji tugged at your hair, pulling your head back to plant kisses along your jaw. bullseye.
“why are you— wha— i didn’t need to see that!” the man with cheeks redder than his own hair sputtered as he shielded his eyes from you. “jeez, get a room. where are those ninja bastards?!” he muttered in disgust as he marched away.
triumph bubbled up in your chest at your successful deception. “neji, he’s gone!” you whispered.
no response.
“… neji?”
it was then that your body realized how good it felt to have neji’s lips kissing all over your face, your mouth, your jaw, your neck, your collarbone.
he was kissing you, and he showed no sign of stopping. his lips were on yours again in a dizzying whirl of pure bliss. a whine of pleasure escaped from your throat, and not one for show.
at that, neji slowly pulled away from you with a shuddering breath, as if he was reluctant to stop.
“n-neji…” you breathed, dazed.
he didn’t respond for a long moment. the two of you stood there pressed against each other, the only sound you could hear being your heavy breathing and the blood rushing through your head. he stared and stared and stared into your eyes, seemingly searching for something.
“neji—”
a tiny squeak slipped from your mouth as neji pressed his lips to yours once again, more fervent, more passionate than before.
this time, he wasn’t putting on a show.

PROMPT: person a gives person b their jacket after seeing them shiver in the cold.
LINK TO EVENT!
the blaring sounds of the faraway midnight city were dampened by the fluffy, slowly drifting snow.
it was just you and rin in this tiny bus stop, which was probably out of service, but you still had hope.
you had zero idea how the two of you had ended up in this abandoned area, with the city so far away. but all you knew was that you were one shiver away from freezing to death.
clouds of frost unfurled from rin’s lips as he pulled the collar of his black winter jacket over his nose. he looked so endearing like this, all bundled up in a thick cozy coat like a momma’s boy.
oh, shoot. he caught you staring at him, raising an eyebrow curiously.
“why’d you wear that?” he narrowed his eyes at your thin hoodie appraisingly.
pulling the strings of your weathered jacket to tightly hug your freezing neck, you avoided his critical gaze. “s-shut up. i didn’t think it would be this cold.”
you heard a familiar click of a tongue from beside you. “idiot. it’s literally the coldest day of the year.”
you were barely able to comprehend what he was saying as you focused on stilling your trembling body and somehow heating up your body. bringing your numb hands to your face, you blew shaky breaths onto your frozen fingers in a feeble attempt to thaw them.
you blew, and blew, and blew, getting colder by the second as frigid winds whipped past you. you were so absorbed with trying to unfreeze your frozen fingers that you didn’t notice that you were already warming up.
a fuzzy weight fell around your shoulders. a hand grabbed your shaking arm and slid it into an insulated sleeve. a familiar-scented jacket was wrapped cozily around you, instantly heating you up.
rin reached around your back to slip your other arm into the sleeve on his far side, his head following until he was hovering right next to your ear.
“ugh.. move, idiot,” he whispered, his lips just barely touching the shell of your ear. “stop making this difficult.”
you were, quite literally, frozen in place.
a shiver traveled down your spine— not from the harrowing cold, but from rin’s warm breath tickling your ear just so.
it seemed like you had forgotten all about your frozen body, and all you could focus on was his low, raspy whisper in your ear.
you snapped out of reality as he gently shook your shoulder to awaken you from your trance. as soon as you hastily slipped your arm into the other sleeve of his rather large— and long— winter jacket, it felt like you were swaddled in the warmest blanket of your life, cozied up in front of a flickering fireplace. you noted that although your nose was about to be frozen off, you could still tell that the jacket smelled just like him, mature and familiar.
realization hit as you watched rin’s bare arms slip from around your back.
“r-rin, you’re going to freeze to death!” you frantically tried to escape from his jacket, but struggled with the weight of it.
long, slender fingers trapped your hand in place, preventing you from wrangling with the sleeve of the jacket. “hey. it’s okay.”
although you had stopped your efforts to take off the coat, rin’s hand was still wrapped around yours, placed conveniently over your thrumming heart.
the two of you were still. stiller than the silent midnight. stiller than the slowly drifting crystals of snow.
it was just the two of you underneath this frosted bus stop, lit up with the flickering streetlight amidst the void of cold.
his lips were nearly blue. droplets of snow melted into miniscule puddles of dew on the fringe of his hair. plumes of frozen air matched his heavy breaths.
his hand over yours, your hand over your heart, the heart that belonged to him.
if your lips weren’t so cold, you would totally kiss him right now.

Hello! Can you do relationship hcs with Isagi and reader who is very supportive of him? Basically his personal cheerleader! Thanks ♡
SUPPORTIVE S/O HEADCANONS!
FEATURING: isagi yoichi!
A/N: okay this was so fun to write but it got sad REAL QUICK. keep isagi happy pls and thank u <3
who needs cheerleaders with those rah-rah pompoms and frilly skirts when isagi has you?
none of the triumphant marching bands or pep rallies in the world could ever come close to the pure happiness and pride you bring him whenever you support him
whether it’s at an intense soccer game or during finals week, he knows you’ve got his back
“yo-i-chi! who’s the best? i! sa! gi!”
you were twirling around, pumping your fists in the air and chanting to cheer your boyfriend on
as he relentlessly smashed the controller’s buttons in a game of smash bros against bachira
“ha! thanks babe, i got this in the bag now!”
a fierce smirk appeared on his face as your cheers got him pumped up
nothing else gets the blood rushing through his veins as quickly as you do
one day, you had to leave for a trip at the same time as one of his most important games
it broke your heart and it bummed isagi out a little, but he understood
he would just have to win extra hard, just for you
on the day of the game, you had to leave school early to catch your flight
but not before you knocked on the doorway to his classroom
and stood in the little glass window, cheering with a homemade sign that read:
“ISAGI #1!!!!”
some of his classmates laughed, some teased him, some couldn’t believe how a ‘loser’ like him could score such a sweet person like you
smiling brighter than the sun, isagi told them that he couldn’t believe it either
not only do you cheer him on when he’s fired up, you lift him up when he’s down too
whenever he suffers a loss in an extremely tight match, whenever he was just short of victory, isagi longs for nothing more than to just slump into your arms and have you hold him forever
he’s not angry or sad or frustrated anymore after getting home and taking a shower to clear his mind
he’s just tired, and all he wants is for you to hold him and tell him he did well
while he’s lying in your lap or lying down with his face pressed to your stomach
pls just thread your fingers through his hair and comfort him, with your touch or with your words
even if isagi doesn’t believe it, if you tell him your supportive words like they’re fact
he’ll believe in himself too :,)

PROMPT: person a gently tends to a wound person b recently got.
LINK TO EVENT!
“hyo-channn!” you wailed at the stinging pain searing at your freshly wounded knee.
the pink-haired boy in front of you clicked his tongue in annoyance. “be quiet, will you?” his scathing words did not match the tender touch which he treated your wound with at all. he screwed his lips to the side, furrowing his brow as he carefully dabbed ointment around the cleaned gash. “will you stop being so clumsy all the time?”
“hey—” suddenly, you instinctively clutched at your knee as the ointment worked its magic, biting back a squeal of pain. “ahh— it hurts…”
“jeez, you’re so…” chigiri’s rose-colored eyes widened in worry as his apathetic demeanor immediately dissolved at your whimpers. “hey— hey, it’s okay….” he murmured softly, rubbing soothing circles around the scraped area to try and ease the pain. “it’s gonna stop hurting soon.”
and as if he willed it to, the pain subsided.
you found yourself catching your shallow breath as you unclenched your fists. “c-chigiri…” your tear-filled eyes slid up to meet his.
and just like before, chigiri’s face hardened with a stubborn blush while he deliberately avoided your gaze. “tch. see, you’re fine. stop making such a big deal out of nothing.”
a tiny smile spread across your lips.
oh, chigiri.

an earsplitting crack boomed through the air, rattling your bones and making your heart race even faster.
“rin, i hate this…” you whined, struggling to focus on the seemingly endless math problems on the desk in front of you. this was definitely not how you wanted your study session to unfold, where a raging thunderstorm threatened to split your entire house in half. “and not just the thunder. this stuff doesn’t even make sense!”
rin stared cooly out the window from his chair next to you, watching the dark violet sky flash with lightning. “does it scare you?”
“yes, math scares me!” you tossed your pen into the pencil cup on your desk.
“no, i mean does thunder scare you. like storms.”
you felt your face heat up. “o-oh. yeah, a little…”
he made a thoughtful noise, as though he were assessing that information before storing it away.
you placed your hands on your thighs and leaned in towards him. “what, are you gonna use that against me in the future or something? i swear, if you show up to my house with a bunch of firecrackers or something—”
rin exhaled sharply out of his nose, an expression that looked suspiciously like a grin appeared on his face as he glanced sideways at you. “what? no, i was just thinking. about… stuff.”
you flashed him with a teasing smirk. “wha—”
just then, another deafening boom interrupted your sentence, causing you to flinch slightly.
rin’s amused expression became concerned as he furrowed his brow at you. “are you okay?”
“it’s so loud,” you whispered. this was pathetic, being scared of something as natural as a thunderstorm.
he stared at you for a few moments, as if contemplating what to do, before he swept the sheet of math problems on your desk to the side. “screw math.”
your eyes widened as you turned to face him. “what?”
“we can’t get anything done if you’re moping around like this. so screw math.” he slid out of his chair, unfolding himself to his full height. “i have an idea.”
you willed yourself to get out of your own chair, standing up so that your face was right at rin’s chest. “what’s your idea?”
“we’re going to hide.” rin ducked underneath your desk, sitting on the floor against the wall with his legs outstretched, nearly hitting the top of his head against the desk.
you stared at him incredulously, letting out a giggle. “are we kids now?”
“do you want me to help you or not?” a tinge of a blush began to spread across his cheeks as he deliberately avoided your gaze. appreciative that he was showing some form of affection, you complied as you slipped underneath the desk next to him, knees hugged tightly to your chest.
your room flashed with lightning just then, and you felt your body immediately tense up and instinctively huddle closer to rin’s as you anticipated the reverberating clap of thunder that would ensue.
and a few seconds later, it came, shaking your body and your nerves as you squeezed your eyes shut.
“a mile away.” rin mumbled.
you peeked one eye open. “what?”
“the storm’s a mile away.” it was then that you noticed just how close he was to you; you could practically count each one of his individual eyelashes from here. “the thunder came almost five seconds after the lightning. every five seconds is equal to a mile away.”
both of your eyes were open now as he locked his gaze onto yours. a beat of silence passed between the two of you.
“can i try something?” you asked quietly.
he nodded.
you moved in between his outstretched legs, leaning your back against his chest with your legs lined up against the inside of his. a sharp inhale sounded from behind your ear, sending goosebumps throughout your body.
“are you okay?” your voice was no louder than a whisper.
“yeah.”
you noticed just how much you were trembling once rin’s steady arms wrapped protectively around your shaking body.
the room lit up with the familiar flash of lightning, and he squeezed his arms tightly around you.
“count,” he whispered.
so you counted. one, two, three, four, five… six…
the thunderous boom that followed seemed quieter now. whether it was because the storm was moving away or if rin’s arms around you brought you comfort, you didn’t know.
but the way he pulled you close into his toned chest, protecting you from one of your biggest fears, made you feel unafraid of anything.
once the thunder had dissipated, rin’s low voice murmured in your ear once again. “how long?”
“six.” you shut your eyes, feeling the tension in your body release as you leaned back against him.
“one point two miles. it’s getting farther away.”
“good.” you felt your lips form into a small grin. “and rin?”
“hm?”
“thank you.”
