it's the end of your usual training session with ukyo. you had asked for his assistance in archery since you thought it would definitely be a benefit for the science kingdom to have not one, but two archers. initially you wanted to learn fighting hands-on from kohaku but seeing as she's already got two students in her hands, you low-key felt guilty and opted for archery instead.
at first, ukyo was just a mere acquintance for you. but perhaps months of lessons with just the two of you had made you catch feelings for the green-eyed guy somewhere along the line.
while you remain professional about it, ukyo had been the complete opposite. ah yes, he caught on. it's ukyo after all. you've been ignoring his advances because it's not like he blatantly flirts with you out in the open or anything like that. he only does these when it's you and him. just, a touch here and there. a little wink here and there. but this? oh, you hate this move the most.
leaning his back against a tree, he smiles deviously, "leaving already? you still need to practice more you know". you let out a scoff, holding yourself back from rolling your eyes as you adjust your quiver and attempt to walk pass him when he once again opens that annoying mouth, "you did get high scores but it was a little unconsistent than yesterday's". ukyo and the bullshit he spews. you don't resist the urge to eye roll this time as you whip your body back and march straight towards him. throwing caution off the wind, you let the words roll off your tongue,
"you just want to spend more time with me don't you?"
ukyo doesn't flinch at your outburst, simply looking at you and you almost feel the regret forming at the pit of your stomach. almost, before he breaks the silence,
"and what's so wrong with that?"
and with the way ukyo is staring at you, you're sure you're hearing sirens somewhere in your head. still, he definitely needs a lesson so you reply with a sigh instead, "but you can't do that. i've worked hard today and did well. you can't just add extra hours for personal reasons, however smooth that was. instead, just ask me out like a normal person if you want to so much". he lightly nods, his head ducked a little afterwards and you're about to get closer to check if he's okay when he abruptly shoots his head up, startling you in the process. he waits a while for you to calm down and then he speaks, "i'm sorry, you're right. but asking away just like that won't be fun so...", he continues when you prompt him to,
"if i hit the pinhole, would you date me?"
"but you always hit them?",
you furrow your eyebrows at him and ukyo's lips turns into a smirk.
oh. oh.
"yeah- yes. i'd go out with you if you can do that", it came out in a mutter and you want to knock your head for it, how embarassing.. ukyo pays little mind to it though, pushing himself from the bark and immediately searching for the nearest target. when he does, he calls for you and points at it. he starts fixing his stance once you approach his side, hands swiftly moving to his bow and arrow just as he did hundreds of times before. you intently watch the arrow head and your gaze slides to his face when you notice that he purposely pauses his shoot.
throwing you a wink, ukyo mouths a "for you" and that's when you hear the swoosh.
if it hadn't been for you being so flustered, you would have notice that his arrow had indeed pierce through the pinhole. not like you need to check anyway. since ukyo gives your clothing a little tug and a nod towards the village, "now let's go, girlfriend"

when people say they can't bear to do long distance relationships, your first thought would be "oh, so their s/o is not in the military force then" because months and years is nothing to you. it may be a normal occurence at this point─ seeing your husband off, wait for like half a year (if fortunate), welcome your dear husband back ─but your heart clenches every time either way. more so the fact that your lover has no guarantee of coming back alive.
and maybe because the day after is valentines.
maybe that's why the dining table feels so empty. or that watching the kids from your neighbourhood making snow ducks is your only source of happiness now. winter has always been this cold but you've never found yourself craving an insane amount of warmth, you only just realise this when you catch yourself slipping into the 6th layer of clothing.
ukyo had told you before his deployment that he would probably not make it for valentines. apologies fall past his lips and you only shake your head in understanding. you can't blame him, it's not like he can do anything either. he doesn't miss it when you turn your head for a second to purse your lips, and when you turn back to him, your eyes are slightly glossy. his mouth seals shut then, arms bringing you closer instead and in the next moment, his lips are gently molding onto yours. he brings a hand to your cheek, slightly leaning back and his breath tickles your skin when he whispers.
"i love you". a little thud is heard when he knocks his forehead lightly onto yours. "so, so much".
your lips tremble when you say it back and you waste no time to connect your lips again, urgently pressing your body to him. ukyo's eyes flutter close as he reciprocates, hand cradling the back of your head. because tomorrow, you'll be lonely again.
you remember going to bed that night with your lover's pajamas close to your nose. you don't however remember falling asleep but when you open your eyes, the clothing in your hand is slightly damped and there's a pleasant smell coming from the kitchen. shrugging off the layers you've had the night before, you mentally curse yourself for being too into your emotions as your body has gotten sweaty from all those clothes. great. ukyo is not here, your body is itchy and everything feels so stupid and annoying and now you have to get up to make breakfast and─ wait. there's a pleasant smell coming from the kitchen.
there's a pleasant smell coming from the kitchen?
immediately jolting up, you pinch your nose before taking in the scent again. did you miss ukyo so much that you're even hallucinating right now? somewhere in your heart, you hope that you're proven right since that's the most logical reason. but to your dismay (or is it), the scent is still there.
you approach the kitchen with heavy steps, scrutinizing the surroundings warily. your illusion must be so powerful that you're seeing the familiar mop of white. so so powerful that when he turns around, he's even greeting you a 'good morning'. so so powerful that he's even taking steps towards you, eyes looking into your widen ones. you barely register it when he closes the distance and suddenly, there's a moist sensation on your forehead.
"oh"
ukyo simply watches as the gears inside your head turn before he feels a sudden weight on top of him. "ukyo...", you whimper. he's here. he's here. he's here. he's here.
your partner's expression softens, hands circling your body to hold you in his arms however long you want. "i made breakfast by the way", he adds as his hand trace a heart on your back. you pull away a little, enough to see his face without detaching yourself, and a pout is visible on your face. "i thought you weren't coming until next week..". ukyo lets out a breathy laugh at that. his lips curve even wider when he replies, "got work done early and wanted to suprise you". your lover pecks your lips afterwards. how can he not when yours are puckered like that just for him to see? he smirks satisfiedly at your parted lips, your heart hammering faster against the rib cage from how casual that was.
for a moment, you had to remind yourself that you've been together for years and a simple kiss shouldn't have bothered you that much. but who is he to deny when you pull him in for another taste.

falling in love with ukyo has always been an easy feat for you. he makes it a second nature to you. effortless just like that.
you think it's impossible to fall in deeper and yet here you are under the rain, in the middle of a (fortunately empty) road a few blocks down the cafe you just went on a date to, hands intertwined with him and bodies swaying awkwardly in what should be a romantic slow dance. his emerald eyes stare back at you and you make no effort to resist the urge to laugh so hard you almost misstep your foot. again. there's a slight nose scrunch visible on his face and he mirrors you, the corners of his lips curving upwards.
one step, two step, a few more steps and he stops.
he lets the sound of rain hitting the ground fill both of your ears before he finds the courage to lean in and gently places his forehead on yours. it's impossible to fall in deeper on your third year of dating yet here he is, leaning in a little closer so that your noses are touching. a little closer so that you can count his eyelashes. a little closer so that you can feel little puffs of hot air hitting your skin. you close your eyes, relishing in the moment, fingers untangling only to hold his back a little tighter.
ukyo's heart soften at the scene playing. there weren't words shared but he knows you're currently letting yourself be vulnerable with him. and he can only hope you could hear the sound of his heartbeat despite the pitter-patter.
he's so ugh i wanna stuff his face with kisses oml
