Work Text:
"Your place or my place?"
"Yours."
Sato hang up the call. Three hours after the appointment was made, they are in front of Takagi's appartment. Door open, Takagi let her in. Her small steps feels limp as she throw away her satchel bag effortlessly on the floor. His eyes are on her all the time, full of sympathy. No words. After minutes of silence, Sato walk towards him and do nothing but hugs him slowly. Takagi responds her hug with the gentle touch as if her body was made by glass that will crack if he holds too tight.
"There.. there.." he rubs her back gently while whistling on her ears.
He can't say other words but a hug. A hug to comfort the messed up mood. A hug where he pour all his love.
Sato feel so comfort. After the hard day, work pressure, stressful situation, she deserve a mental support. The peace. The one can only be found in her man.
"Takagi..." she murmured as she separate their hands in the hug.
The first thing he does is looking at her eyes. His palm slowly touch her face, ready to wipe up any teardrop, if they about to drop.
fortunately, they don't. "Want something warm? I have some tea, wait." Takagi let her sit on the couch and going to kitchen. five minutes later, he is back with a tea cup. "thankyou, dear." with the warmth of the herbs tea, Sato once again feels comfort.
They are now sitting on the couch together covered with thick bed cover. Instead of asking about the problem Sato has, or what kind of thing she had ben though today, that make her so weak in the end of the day, Takagi turn on the tv, offering a netflix time for her, "Romance of Comedy?" "Your choice." Answered her quickly while clung to his arm and lean her head to his shoulder. So warm and comfortable that made her feel asleep in his embrace.
"Sato-san?"
Only the sound of repetitive breath that replied his word. Smile rise on his face when her sleeping face caught in his sight. So beautiful. And the beautifull girlboss is his. Takagi's chest suddenly feels so warm. He swear to God that will protect her and won't let her upset anymore. In the hard days, he will help her work. In the sorrowful days, he try to wipe the burden of hers. In the stressful days, with him, he will make her find piece.
