You didn't remember much from last night. Every time you tried to think about it your head pounded in protest, earning a dissatisfied groan from you. It was time to get up and figure out what the hell happened though, so you pushed yourself up into a sitting position despite how dizzy you were feeling and took a look around. After a quick sweep of the room you were in you concluded it was Denjiro's estate. The location rang a few bells in your head about what happened last night, and as if on cue, Denjiro himself walked into the room with a glass of water and a little plate of onigiri in hand.
"Good morning love." Denjiro greeted with a tiny smile.
"Ngh, g'mornin'. What the hell happened last night?" You groaned as he took a seat next to you.
"You tried to outdrink me and my family." He chuckled.
"Oh. Well, did I win?" You asked.
"You did, but at what cost?" He replied with a knowing smirk.
"This mother fucking headache clearly." You sighed.
You tried to look around a bit to reorient yourself, but the movement alone made you dizzy once again, your eyes practically rattling in your head as you swayed into Denjiro's side. He swiftly moved his arm around your back to prevent you from falling, holding your hungover self close to him.
"Perhaps you shouldn't move too much right now." He suggested.
You laughed, amused by how dysfunctional you were currently. "You're right. Anyway, how many bottles did I go through on my adventure to out drink you? I lost count after my fourth."
"Mmm, about seven."
"Oh. Oh my god. Shit it's coming back to me now. Yeah... Seven bottles, me, you, and half your damn family. If I remember correctly, everyone tapped out by bottle three and it was just me and you. Fuck, I went hard didn't I" You breathed, amazed by how you were still here.
"You did indeed. I stopped at bottle number six myself. You tried to go for an eighth bottle, but you blacked out immediately upon smelling it." He chuckled, remembering the scene.
"Oh yeah, I totally remember that now." You grinned.
The two of you laughed about the insanity of the night before, you gently nuzzling into his side as your laughter slowed to a stream of quiet giggles. Denjiro gave you a little squeeze with his one hand as he then slid the water and onigiri closer to you, offering them kindly.
"You've still got quite the hangover despite how tough you're acting. Eat, my love. You'll feel better." He encouraged.
"Thank you, Denjiro. Honestly, what would I do without you?" You mumbled, taking a sip of the water.
"Hmm, this sounds rather familiar, doesn't it?" Denjiro noted with a smirk. "Almost like the night you took care of me."
"It does indeed." You giggled, taking a couple bites of the onigiri. "You must love me a lot then huh?"
"I do. I love you a great deal, as a matter of fact." He hummed.
Denjiro then leaned down to you, cupping your cheek with one hand as he pulled you into a deep and loving kiss. There was still the faintest trace of alcohol lingering on your lips, but the taste did not bother him. He in fact remained with you longer as he caressed your rosy cheek, still holding you close so you wouldn't tip over when he pulled back to gaze down at you lovingly.
"Wow. You could take away my hangover with a kiss like that~" You said softly.
"Mm, am I that good?" He asked amusedly.
You went to lean down to get another bite to eat before responding, but winced when your head went at too low of an angle. The pain still chased you from last night, and you had to go back to leaning into Denjiro once more.
"Ugh, I really wish I could say that it did but that damn sake doesn't wanna quit beating me up." You groaned.
"Rest a bit more then. It's still quite early, so you have time to recover still." He told you, kissing your forehead gently.
"Only if I can do so in your arms. You're comfy, and I won't do it unless you stay." You requested playfully.
"As you wish, darling~" He chuckled.
Denjiro moved himself back a bit to lean up against the wall before carefully pulling you into his lap, bringing your blanket with you. He then draped the large piece of fabric over your shoulders as you snuggled up against his chest, lost in his warmth almost immediately. It didn't take long for you to doze off one again, a small smile forming on his face as your breathing slowed.
"I hope you know you're insane _______. But... I love that about you. You're one crazy little dare devil." He whispered.
Denjiro ran his thumb over your cheek gently as you slept off your hangover, adoring how peaceful you were in this moment. Soon, he too began to feel drowsy, and decided to take a bit of a nap with you. A bit more rest didn't sound too bad right now, so he soon fell into a peaceful slumber to nap away the early hours of the morning until you woke once more.
