"Last one" Inui whispered under his breath as he applied the last of the band-aid around your ring finger.

Currently, you and your blonde-haired boyfriend were in your dorm room. He was only supposed to come by and pick you up for dinner, however, he saw what state your hands were in (it was poorly bandaged). Luckily, the dorm house's first aid kit had enough adhesive plasters to redo the bandaging.

Since you have done a lot of manual needlework to fix some buttons and sequins on the pieces you were working on earlier, poking your fingers about more than a few times was inevitable. You were just glad that you haven't stained the light-colored fabric. The show was in two weeks, and you couldn't bother to delay any further with small predicaments such as washing hard-to-rid-off stains.

You brought your hand in front of you. Wiggling your fingers, you smiled at how neatly he had put on the band-aids on them.
"Yay! Thanks, Seishu!" you chirped "I could never bandage my non-dominant hand well, so I really appreciate you doing this for me."

The corners of the blonde-haired male's lips perked up. Bringing your hand to his lips, he plants small kisses on each of your fingertips.

You felt your heart soften and melt, like an upturned smile forms on your lips. He couldn't be any sweeter than this, right?

"No problem. Try to be careful next time, okay?" he uttered, looking up to your pink-painted cheeks. His baby blue eyes glinted with such warmth and softness as he cast his gaze on your (e/c) orbs.

You paused for a while, staring at his pretty blue eyes as if you were enchanted with them for the first time. Inui, of course, was slightly bemused by your sudden moment of silence, nevertheless, he engaged in your little staring contest.

"What?" a small chuckle left his lips.

You shook your head and placed your bandaged hand on top of his head, feeling his silky blonde hair under your palm and in the gaps of your fingers. Your hand slid down to the side of his face, just below his scar, cupping his cheek lightly. The thought of having him in your life was enough to make you feel happy.

Your smile grew into a wide toothy grin.

"Inui Seishu, I am thankful to be able to exist with you in this life. Stay with me always?"

His eyes widened and his lips parted slightly, he well knew that you were vocal in expressing your affections. But your words of affirmation felt like they came in tiny gift boxes, they were always surprising and pleasing experiences.

Placing his hand on top of yours, he filled the gaps between your fingers. Turning his head, he kisses the base of your palm, enjoying the warmth of your hand.

"Always, sunshine, I promise."
