content: no manga spoilers, fluffpeace in a world with unusual ability-using people was hard to find. working all over the place as keepers of this rare peace was even harder. there were rarely days to rest, considering how few there were.
the legendary hunting dogs, the strongest unit of the military police, only had 6 members. only having that few amount of hunting dogs had you, the 6th member of this unit, working around the clock.
there was also seldom a holiday where you had done nothing. that is, until today. the day of love had come by, and, strangely, you had not racked up a case to work on. the same had applied to the others, so most of you just lazed around the building in case.
you sat in a meeting room with most of the other members, folding paper roses due to your boredom. you were playing cards with fukuchi, teruko, tachihara, and jouno, but you lost first. tachihara had followed you in losing, so he just watched the final three
after finishing your 6th rose, a question you've had in mind spilled from your lips, "hey, do you guys know where tecchou is? he's the only one not here."
tecchou suehiro, a man of justice, was missing from the group. it wasn't that you weren't up for the other's company, but you wanted tecchou's the most. it was a given considering your relationship and the plain fact that it was valentine's.
with a sigh, you listened to what they had to say. both teruko and fukuchi said they had no clue, jouno said he was "a dimwit you shouldn't bother with", and tachihara said he only saw the ravenette briefly in the morning. according to the man that could manipulate metal, tecchou and he had a short conversation before he left headquarters, still in his uniform.
"ah, so maybe he's coming back," you hoped.
as if it were timed, jouno's face scrunched up, "and now you've summoned him."
"huh? what are you talking about?"
"tachihara, (y/n)," jouno called, "don't open the door." the two of you shot a look at each other at his comment.
"um... why wouldn't we?" tachihara asked.
"because-" there was a light slam at the room's door, "he can handle it."
at the door was tecchou himself, carrying... well, carrying a whole mountain of things. everyone was dumbfounded at the large pile of things he left by the door.
"oh," he finally noticed everyone else in the meeting room after he dusted his hands off, "you guys are here too."
"we've been here, but where have you been?" you asked, getting up from your seat and standing in front of him. you tilted your head towards what he brought, "and what's all that for?"
"right, i got you something for you. come," he gently took hold of your hand and led you towards the pile of stuff.
the simple reason that tecchou had come late was that he was trying to get a gift for you. you two have been seeing each other for a little less than a year, so this was his first valentine's day with you. unsure of how to make a good impression on such a day, he asked his co-workers for help. however, they all said different things.
the first thing that tecchou gave to you was a bouquet of your favorite flowers. after taking a whiff, you smiled at the familiar scent. tecchou watched you closely, remembering how hard it was to get the bouquet. since he was one of many buying flowers, he visited multiple shops before he could get what he came for.
"what should i buy (y/n) for valentine's day?" was the question that tecchou had asked everyone.
the first person he went to was fukuchi because he was the oldest among them all. he probably had some romantic experiences in the past... right?
"well," fukuchi twisted the tip of his mustache between his fingers, "flowers never hurt nobody! but listen close, if they don't like the flowers, get them chocolate. what if they don't like chocolate, you ask? then, you get any of their favorite snacks. if you really love them, just get them all."
tecchou handed you a big bag of snacks and a large box of assorted chocolates after you set the flowers aside. "thank you, tecchou. i love it. so i'm guessing the rest of those bags and that huge bear is for the other? maybe?" you guessed skeptically.
"huh? no, it's all for you."
"all of that... for me...?"
"yes."
the innocent expression the black-haired man had made your heart swell. although you didn't know what else he had, it was unexpectedly nice to know that he was thinking about what to get you all morning. you had occupied tecchou's mind while he had a grasp on your heart.
the next person he asked advice from was teruko, a woman in a child's body. and, deadly serious, all she said was, "a giant teddy bear."
the third person he went to was jouno, the blind man that wanted nothing to do with him. although tecchou did not pick up on it, jouno's expression said it all. every time tecchou asked him for advice, he had the same look. yet every time jouno gave the look, tecchou ignored it.
"why are you asking me? it's your relationship," jouno sharply replied.
"i know, and i want (y/n) to be happy. i just don't know what to get them. do you know?"
"no, i don't. now leave me alone."
"are you sure?"
an irk mark appeared on jouno's forehead, "i already said i didn't, did i not?"
silent, tecchou continued to stand by jouno's desk. it wasn't too long until the pen in jouno's hand had snapped, and the spots of black ink splattered on the report he was writing.
"just write her a letter about your feelings or something, alright!? now go away!"
finally, tecchou asked tachihara in the morning.
"well," the ginger cupped his chin, "it's your first valentine's together, so it should be something special that they'll remember forever. maybe a ring or something? sorry, heh, i'm not really a romance guy."
once everything was shown to you, you could only hopelessly rest your head on tecchou's chest. "oh, you've really done it now. you went all out with the gifts, huh?"
he gently placed his hand on your chin and lifted your head up. after that, he slid it from your chin to the back of your head, placing a kiss on your forehead.
"i love you," he nonchalantly declared, "so i'll get you anything"
it was from that moment on that you were sure that tecchou suehiro is a keeper.
note: so this was part of a valentine's day event for my first tumblr, meaning i wrote for multiple characters. i named them differently, so i'll just title them all valentine's day on here
