Hi again.
Just so you know, this chapter is an angsty one but like I said before, there will be no self harm in this story. So no need to worry :)

Makoto sat anxiously at his dining table, wating for his husband to arrive home. It was nearly 1:00 a.m and Byakuya was still not home. Makoto tried calling him multiple times, but it kept going to voice note. A few minutes later, Byakuya came tumbling through the door.
"Byakuya! Oh my god were have you been, I was so worried-"
The blonde collapsed onto the latter. Byakuya reeked of alcohol and looked wasted
"Were you at a bar?"
"I waaaas.... Somewhere" Byakuya hiccuped. Makoto was irritated
"Let's get you to bed" the brunette sighed, he put one of Byakuya arms around his neck and griped Byakuya's waist.
He was finally able to get him onto the bed, The blonde fell asleep immediately.

-----------

Byakuya woke up with a bad headache and groaned
'I should've drurk so much'
He got out of bed and walked to the kitchen
"Morning Makoto" the blonde greeted and tried to kiss his lover's cheek, but Makoto pushed him away.
"What's wrong?"
"Yesterday... You said you'd come home early and spend time with me... And when you did come back, you were too drunk to even stand!"
Makoto was frustrated to say the least.
"I was in a meeting last night. Once it finished, a few colleagues of mine invited me to drink with them" Byakuya explained
"So? You could've said no" the brunette spat out. Byakuya sighed
"I didn't want to be rude"

Makoto scoffed
"That's rich coming from you"
"I don't understand why you're so angry?"
"Because.... You hardly spend time with me"
Byakuya sighed
"I've been busy all week. That's why I went drinking last night, to relieve stress" Byakuya complained
"You still could've come home..." Makoto mumbled
"I don't see why this is such a big deal, we can spend time tonight"
This made the brunette angry
"You said that yesterday, and the day before that, and the day before that"
"I told you I've been busy"
"Would it kill you to take a day off!?"

"Jesus, you're just as annoying as you were in high school... Can you get any worse!" The blonde yelled. Makoto stood in shock, tears welling in his eyes. He gripped his shirt
"You don't know how hard it's been for me... I missed you so much... S-sorry for caring" he stuttered and whiped his eyes. Guilt washed over Byakuya
"Makoto, I'm sorry" he reached fir his husband's hand
"Sorry doesn't fix everything" Makoto snapped and snatched his hand away. They stood in akward silence
"I have to go... School starts in an hour" Makoto replied and left the house.

After graduating, Makoto worked as a teacher at Hopes Peak Academy. Most of his students really liked him.

--------------

As Makoto worked on a project, he heard his students whispering to each other
"Is it just me or does Mr. Togami seem angrier than usal?" One of the girls whispered to her friend

(When Makoto and Byakuya got married, they took Byakuya's surname)

"Yeah... He also seems kinda sad" the other girl replied.
"You know I can hear you" Makoto stated. The two jumped in surprise.
"Sorry sir..." They said in unison.
"You know she has a point sir, you don't look as happy as you always do" one of the boys pointed out
"Guys, I'm fine... Thank you for the concern but it's nothing" Makoto sighed.
"And besides, you're supposed to complete your work, so get on with it"
The whole class groaned.
Makoto laughed quietly to himself and continued to work until break.

Once the bell for break rung, the brunette walked to the teachers lounge. As he sat down, he sighed
"Ah! Mr. Togami, there's someone here who wants to see you" one of the staff members called out. Makoto stood up, slightly annoyed since he just sat down. Out side the room stood a tall blonde with a bouquet of red and pink roses.
"B-Byakuya? What are you doing here!?" Makoto whispered loudly
"I came here to say sorry... And I got you these" Byakuya commented and handed the flowers to the latter.
"Couldn't you have waited till I got home" the brunette questioned. A few students walked past, making Makoto anxious of what they'd think.

The shorter male dragged his husband to the main gate of the building. Luckily students were not allowed to sit at the front of the school, so Byakuya and Makoto were alone.
"Y.... You can't just do that!?" Makoto scolded
"Why? Are you embarrassed by me"
"No that's not...."
"Calm down, I'm only teasing" Byakuya said and walked closer to the latter.
"This morning... I let my anger get the best of me and said things I shouldn't of,I know it's no excuse but... Could you please find it in your heart to forgive me" the blonde pleaded and held Makoto's shoulders.
"If it helps, I've taken leave off of work for a few days"

Makoto looked at the floor, unsure if he should forgive him or not.
"To be honest... When you came back home I was more relieved than anything, I was glad that you weren't hurt.... And I got angry because I missed you and it felt like you didn't miss me back" the brunette said and leaned his head on the latter's shoulder.
"I'm sorry I made you feel that way" the blonde replied while wrapping his arms around Makoto

"I forgive you"
"You do?"
"Yes, of course"
The brunette kissed his husband's cheek
"I love you Kuya"
"I love you too"

Makoto sat in the classroom, feeling happy. A student raised their hand
"Hey sir, where did those flowers come from?" They asked and pointed at the rosses on his desk.
Makoto smiled
"Their from someone special to me"

When you set a deadline for yourself a day ago 🤡

Anywhoooo
Remember the key to a healthy relationship is communication.
Trust me... If you don't communicate with your partner about your feeling, the relationship could fall apart (I have experienced this, it really sucks...)

Good day/night
