Work Text:
you were paired with geto for a mission somewhere in tokyo. you find everything fine except for the fact that geto suguru is a complete jerk. everytime you both partner up, it always ended with some yelling and arguing, sometimes fighting if things get heated up enough.
this time though, it feels different from the usual mission. the higher ups had warned you both to be extra careful. you didn't mind it much until you and geto arrived at the scene, you were rethinking your decisions as you looked around the place.
the whole building was filled with cursed spirits. the eerie feeling made the hairs behind your neck rise. you glanced at geto, taking in his expression. he looks surprisingly calm? wait, is that a smirk?
a sound of someone clearing his throat made you stop what you're doing. you straightened up and took a step forward, "let's go?" you said, unsure. geto walked ahead of you without saying anything, as if you were there with him. you followed him inside the building and got to work.
thankfully, the mission went well. only a few scratches formed on your arm and neck, deep enough to draw blood. and there is geto, unscathed. not a single scratch or bruise were on his body. geto looks down at you, smirking to himself. "seems like someone had it rough" geto chuckled smugly.
you just scoffed, trying to balance yourself as you got up. you stumbled on something and was about to fall before geto caught you. geto clicks his tongue as he helped you stood up. "you don't have to do that cheesy shit" you sneered. he gave you a look, "it'll be more work if you fell down, don't wanna carry you all the way back to the hotel" geto said. you gave him a playful eye roll and started to walk towards the hotel.
it was a long walk filled with silence. not even you or geto have said anything. geto was about to say something but stopping when you opened the door to your shared room. a sigh was heard beside you "they can't afford for an extra bed?" geto said, a slight annoyed tone can be heard in his voice. you shrugged and walked into the room, accepting the fate. you placed your stuff on the floor.
after a quick shower, you head straight to the bed. "take the couch" you said lazily, getting comfortable on the bed. "don't wanna risk getting my neck sore. move" he said, flatly. you stayed there unfazed. geto mumbled something under his breath that you couldn't quite catch, but who cares anyway. geto took one of the pillows and decided to rest on the couch instead, the lights flicked off before he do so.
you woke up in the middle of the night, dreamed about the mission earlier. you remember geto being touchy and protective of you today, shielding you from the cursed spirits thinking you wouldn't notice but you did. sitting up slowly you laughed before stopping as you felt a hand wrapping itself on your waist, you looked down to see geto snuggled close to you.
geto moved slightly, pulling you closer to him. you sighed and decided to go back to sleep. he snuggled closer and nestled his face on your neck, his steady breath hitting your skin. you placed your hand on his back, caressing it slowly as you began to feel sleepy again. ignoring the warm feeling on your cheek, and the butterflies in your stomach.
"couldn't sleep?" a deep voice shot you awake. you see geto looking at you half sleep.
"just some dreams" you told him. "about me?" geto said, grinning slightly. you chuckled, ignoring the weird feeling in your stomach. "go back to sleep, suguru" you replied hastily when geto just laughed at you being embarrassed.
geto's hand wandered over your left arm, "still hurt?" he said as he caressed your arm gently. you looked over to the wound on your arm before looking back up at him, "a bit, yeah" you replied to him smiling a little. geto gets up just enough to reach your left arm and leans in closer to place a gentle kiss on it. he backed up and looked at you "tell me if you need anything, okay?" he said softly. you smiled and nodded, geto pulled you closer to him as he began to drift away to sleep.
you followed him soon after, resting your head on geto's chest as he caressed your back slowly. you may hate him for how he acted before, but right now feels perfect.
