Manjiro's penthouse, Morning...
Second Person's POV
Manjiro quietly made his way to the door of his house. His mind was running with train of thoughts. Questioning his action and life's choices now.
' I pushed everyone out of my life.. So they can have better and brighter future. A future without me. I succeeded in doing so. But now (Y/n) came back...she is back into my life. I have longed for this day to arrive.'
' I dreamed of spending time with her. Cuddling, kissing and hugging her like other couples out there. So she is an exception.' He declared internally. His palm clenched into a tight fist. He was determined and he didn't want to back down anymore. ' Just this time, I want to be selfish and be by her side... I want to keep her by my side. I desire to feel loved again...by (Y/n). '
"I don't want her to leave me again...ever." Manjiro murmured under his breath. He pressed the buttons to give away the passcode of the door. Once the passcode was confirmed right, he slowly opened the door.
You lifted off your gaze from a magazine you were reading once your ear caught the noise of door creaking. Eyes glimmered with joyfulness, you jumped off the couch and rushed to the entrance.
"Manjiro!" You cheered out his name and giddily embraced Manjiro. He returned the embrace, one hand caressing your hair lovingly. You were over the moon to see him again.
"I'm sorry for leaving you like that. Something came up earlier. Are you feeling better now?"
"Mhm. And energetic too! Your subordinate's cooking is top-tier."
You playfully signed a chef's kiss to describe how much you were in love with Rindo's cooking. Manjiro was relieved to hear the good news from you.
"They didn't do anything to do, did they?"
"No. Haitani-san is a funny guy. I had a great time talking with him. Sanzu-san didn't speak much, though."
"I see... That is good."
You looked genuinely happy to spend time with his top underlings. The smile brightening up your face made his heart pound rapidly. Manjiro cupped your cheeks and stared into your (e/c) eyes.
"I'm glad you are having a pleasant time."
"I'm happy to see you again."
You leaned on his chest, listening to his melodic heartbeat peacefully. Small moments like this were the moments you treasured the most.
"I need to talk with you...do you mind staying longer?"
"Hm? Sure, I'm up for it. But what do you want to talk about?"
"Something quite important.."
You paused for a minute. His voice indeed sounded serious. You remembered the texts you sent to your sister. You promised her that you would return home before lunchtime.
