From Best Friends to Lovers

🌸Notes - Hello everyone, this chapter will be a flashback/back story on Sukuna's and Y/N's relationship.

Four days had passed since your talk, yet the intensity and passion between you and Sukuna remained unchanged. The day at the mall brought you closer, allowing for a deeper exchange of personal thoughts and feelings than ever before.

Although your doubts lingered, they became easier to manage as you immersed yourself in daily life. The pleasant and joyful routine you had established since moving in together began to reassert itself, easing your worries. What you initially thought was just the 'honeymoon phase' had actually laid the foundation for a deeper connection.

Of course, the relationship had its challenges. Even after years of knowing Sukuna and now living together, his sarcasm, arrogance, and controlling tendencies continued to test your patience. His need for control was a constant struggle, but it was part of who he was. Sukuna loved to tease you, pushing your buttons until you were frustrated, knowing it would end with your bodies intertwined, sharing unimaginable pleasure.

Overall, you both were very happy.

Especially Sukuna.

Sukuna was pleased knowing you weren't going anywhere. It put him at ease and filled his ego with satisfaction as you agreed to his selfish requests. Though he was trying to curb his controlling tendencies, deep down, he still dreamed of a perfect domestic life with you waiting for him to come home every day, handling all the household duties.

He was done with other women; he had his fill of them. None of them could cook his favorite meals or care for him like you did. This was the bliss and comfort Sukuna had always strived for.

Growing up with his grandpa and brother, Sukuna never had the luxury of a nurturing female presence. Having you there, taking care of him, brought him happiness. He realized he had become somewhat spoiled and dependent on you, and now he craved it even more.

Despite his stubbornness, Sukuna genuinely had your best intentions at heart. After your talk, he understood your desire for independence and gave you an allowance to grant you more freedom. This was his way of respecting your independence and curbing his possessive tendencies. Although you disliked relying on him, it allowed you to save for yourself.

However, his territorial side couldn't be completely contained. You were his girl, his prized possession. Cementing you in his life was crucial to him. He wanted to ensure you knew he would never grow tired of you or let you slip away.

You had always had his back, supporting him unconditionally. You cared for him long before he became the millionaire he is now. You grew up admiring him from afar, being his personal cheerleader.

Sukuna vividly recalled a younger, more immature you standing on the sidelines of the park basketball court, cheering him on during his most intense, competitive games with Yuuji and his friends.

You invited him over frequently, spending countless hours playing video games and goofing off together. Even when he was running the streets and getting into trouble, he always made sure you got home safely. He often came by late after arguing with his grandpa, sneaking into your window to crash for the night. Back then, you were just friends.

Throughout school, you were always kind to him, supporting him genuinely as his best friend, knowing the real Sukuna despite his troublesome behavior.

Sukuna sighed, his mind drifting back to a time when he had made you cry while teaching you to fight. You were both thirteen, and the lesson didn't go as planned. You had punched him in the face, nearly giving him a black eye. Enraged, he snapped and tackled you. You kept throwing punches until he pinned you to the ground. You lay there defenseless, bawling your eyes out.
