TW: mentions of self-harm and self-harm scars

One year and four months before the day

Megumi's POV

"Megumiiii" I smiled towards the boy leaning against me while running my hand through his pink hair

"Yes babe?" I say watching a pout form on his lips. 

"I'm bored" he looks up at me, since he is lying with his back against my chest.

"I thought you wanted to see the movie?" I smile now looking into his eyes "I did but it is boring..." he says turning off the TV.

"What do you want to do then?" I ask

He suddenly sat up, turning slightly towards me. 

"We should go on a date" he says jumping of joy on the couch

"We are always going on dates, basically every afternoon you drag me to that weird cafe just to have your smoothie..." I say not understanding what he wants

"Yes but we should go out and take a walk, see things, just enjoy the afternoon" he says smiling, grabbing my hand.

I stop to think for a while... I really don't want to leave the house... It's hot outside and I can't wear a short sleeve, especially around Itadori... since we started dating three months ago, I've been looking for the right time to show him my scars and tell him about my past... To explain things to him. 

But I can't... He would just think I'm disgusting and leave me. 

I can't lose him. Not him. Not for something like that...

I'm just happy that he never tried to go beyond a few kisses... At least I don't have to deal with it at a time that would be embarrassing and ruin the moment...

"Hey! Planet Earth calls Fushiguro. Are you there?" I look at my boyfriend, who is now sitting awkwardly on my lap and looking at me with a confused expression.

I sigh before answering "Okay, get ready, then we can leave. I'll wait here since I'm dressed"

He smiles and nods before leaving a peck on my lips and making his way towards his room.

Since I have time, I end up thinking a little about our relationship. 

Since we confessed to each other, nothing much has happened...

I mean, he and I got a lot closer obviously...I started to practically live here since whenever I have to go to my house to get something he makes a drama saying that I am going to abandon him.

I had to hear Kugisaki tease me about always knowing that we were going to become a couple and all that...

I get to cuddle with him and watch him fall asleep on my chest almost every night...

I get to cook dinner with him instead of just ordering some food to eat alone in my apartment...

During my thoughts I see my reflection on the unlit television screen... I'm smiling ... It's rare for this to happen, although I think that since I met Itadori this has stopped being so rare...

"What are you smiling about?"

I turn my head to see the boy of my thoughts in front of me already ready to leave. 

"You" I say casually walking past him and heading towards the door

"How cute of you, you'll make me feel embarrassed saying things like that" he says in a playful tone following me out of the building and holding my hand.
