❝ I was... trying to hold her back.❞

"I swear to any and everything, if you ever try to hurt Y/n again, I'll do ten times worse than kill you. I'll make what she did seem like nothing. You got lucky. But trust me, if there happens to be a next time, your life will be flashing before your eyes before you even take a step close to her."

"Oh—, I just... let her off with a warning." Masagi laughed awkwardly, rubbing the back of his neck as he stood in front of your bed.

"Oh... okay." You nodded. "I... I'm sorry. I don't know what came over me. I was just... angry."

"I understand. I don't want you to feel like you did anything bad. I mean, I did technically provoke you. Either way, don't feel guilty about it. If anything, it was self defense."

There were soft knocks at your door before you could reply. The two of you watched as it slowly opened, Neji's taller figure walking inside. He held a bouquet of red roses, along with a gift bag.

You couldn't help but feel tears well in your eyes the second you seen him.

"Such a crybaby. He didn't even sit down yet." Masagi teased.

"S-Shut up." You stammered, trying to hurriedly wipe your tears away.

Neji smiled softly, sitting down beside you as he placed the flowers and bag down. He caressed your cheeks, wiping your tears.

"What're you crying for, my love?"

"Because... I-I hurt you, and the flowers you b-bought me got all burnt up, and—, and..." You sniffled. "I'm sorry!"

"Don't apologize, pretty girl. I feel perfectly fine, and I bought you some new flowers. I don't want to see you crying."

"I know... I know." You spoke in a wavering voice. "I just feel really bad."

"You don't have to." He assured. "I'm perfectly fine, there's nothing to worry about."

"I love you..."

"I love you more."

Masagi could feel himself tearing up, but he forced himself to wipe his tears before anything happened.

"Neji, please take care of her. I'm putting my full trust in you."

"I will."

"I'll leave you two to it." He said. "I'll go cook."

And with that, Masagi exited the room.

You leaned in to kiss him, your lips soft against his as he melted into your touch. You wrapped your arms around his neck as you pulled him close, Neji slowly but surely getting on top of you. You ran your hands through the back of his hair, gently tugging on his long brown strands.

He grunted softly into your mouth, deepening the kiss with you. He then began to move down, kissing your jaw and that sweet spot on your neck that made you whimper out.

Your sighs and moans sounded so cute to him, he could feel himself getting turned on by just that. Your touch was soft as your fingertips grazed over his nape. He pulled your shirt up, holding onto your waist as he kissed lower, beginning to suck and bite softly at your skin. He began to move your bra straps down, groping at your breasts with his calloused hands.
