"Love is a form of energy, it cannot be created nor destroyed"
"So it only stays and goes then?"
-- A Tokyo Revengers fic where a burnt out overachiever meets a person from her past, few years after making a promise...
Everyday, I bargain with God for him to return you to me.

"Finally!"
You found yourself indulging in the comfort of the silk-cotton bed. This definitely beats the uncomfortable leather car seat you had to sit in for hours.
Stretching your back and arms that had become stiff from the almost six-hour trip, a satisfied smile grew on your face. As much as you were looking forward to your long-weekend vacation, traveling long hours was certainly tiring.
Not that soon after, you felt fatigue sinking in your system, a soft yawn escaped from your lips.
Shinichiro, who was in the room with you, noticed your tired state. He set your bags down in the corner of the room before walking to the single-sized bed, adjacent to yours (yes, this isn't a one-room, one-bed scenario, sorry to disappoint).
He plopped himself on the bed, reaching out his hand to caress the side of your head.
"We have still time before lunch, you should get some sleep babe," he suggested, fully knowing that you only had finished your exams yesterday. His poor girlfriend probably hasn't got enough sleep during finals.
You looked up at him, casting your (e/c) chromes on his charcoal ones, still seeing those visible dark circles you had taken notice of during your drive to Kyoto.
"How about you? You should get some sleep too."
He shook his head. "I still have to meet with my friend. You know, the one who invited us here. I want to express my thanks," he replied.
You caught his hand and intertwined your fingers with his. "You can do it later. We have until the day after the next one after all. I know that you're tired," you protested, genuinely concerned over his welfare.
You then moved over, leaving a big enough space for him at your side, and gestured, "Sleep for a while."
Shinichiro felt his cheeks warm up. God, someone take his girlfriend away, she's being so adorable that he might not hold himself back. But despite the butterflies you were giving him right now, he cleared his throat and decided to strongly reject your offer.
"He's returning to Tokyo later. Come on babe, don't do this to me, you know that I'm weak against you."
You blew raspberries in dismay, to which he chuckled.
"And don't worry much over me, thanks to you, I was able to rest for a couple of hours. I didn't know that you could drive," he praised, potentially steering away from the topic.
Halfway to Kyoto, you couldn't help but notice him desperately trying to stay awake. Prioritizing his welfare and road safety, overall, you decided to take over so that he could get some shut eye. Fortunately, you had always kept your (barely used) driver's license in your wallet.
