Belated Valentine's Day guys! This story popped into my head this morning and I wrote in a day, it's a miracle! Anyway, enjoy, choke on the fluff, and maybe even leave a review? :)
Never
You wake up to warm fingers traveling from your forehead to the back of your ear tucking strands of hair. Arms pull you closer and you feel his breath on your forehead. Keeping your eyes closed you angle your head up.
"Good morning."
You can feel the smirk beyond your lids when his lips suddenly touch yours. You return the gesture and open your eyes. His bright yellow hair is uncharacteristically matted in places and the glare in his eyes is replaced by a sleepy haze, a look probably only you have seen.
You continue to stare at him and notice the smirk gone, the look in his eyes is not just from waking up. "What's wrong?" You lift your head from the pillow but his strong arms limit your movement.
"It's nothing," he urges, "don't move."
You doubt his words but nevertheless tuck your head back under his chin.
"You love me, right?"
His chin pokes the top of your head when he spoke, "of course I do."
He pauses.
"Even though I'm demonic?"
Finally it dawns on you what was bothering him.
Moving abruptly, you manage to escape his grasp. You roll him onto his back and sit on his stomach. You meet his confusion with a stern look.
"You're questioning my feelings for you?"
He sighs and rests his hands on your thighs. Maintaining a straight face, he answers you, "no."
"You don't think you deserve it?"
He keeps eye contact for a few more seconds before turning his head and averting his gaze.
You lean forward onto your elbows so that you're right above him, then plant your lips on his.
"I love you."
You don't give him time to reply. Kiss.
"You have demonic ways,"
Kiss.
"But its only because you care."
Kiss.
"I love all of you."
Kiss.
You break the kiss when you feel his smirk on your lips.
"Okay, I get it," he looks up at you, the uncertainty finally gone from his expression, "I'm sorry."
You display a triumphant smile and tangle your fingers in his unkept hair. "Good. Don't you ever question my feelings for you or your worthiness of them again for as long as you love me."
"Ke ke ke, so never?" He lifts his head to initiate the kiss this time.
Smiling, you reciprocate when he suddenly rolls you over and flips your positions. He breaks the kiss and looks into your eyes, returning to the Hiruma Yoichi everyone knows and the Hiruma Yoichi only you know.
"I love you too."
