Love Game (Toji Fushiguro x Fem!Reader)

Chapter 15 : Mood Swings (V.2)

A/N : Hey guys!  This is the final version of this chapter.  The last one was kinda "meh", and I felt like it was too cheesy.  I just didn't dig it, so I rewrote the whole thing...I also don't want to give Suguru more screentime in the future because obviously it's an x Toji fanfic 🥺✨...

You kicked off your heels, letting out a sigh of relief as your feet finally got some much-needed freedom. You tossed your bag onto the couch and your file case onto the coffee table, as you made your way to the kitchen to pour yourself a glass of wine. You took a sip, savoring the taste as you closed your eyes, letting the tension of the day melt away.

You took another sip of your wine, before setting the glass down on the counter. You picked up your phone, scrolling through your contacts until you found Toji's number. You pressed call, putting the phone to your ear as you waited for him to answer.

Ring. Ring. Ring.

No answer.

You frowned, hanging up and trying again. Still no answer. You sighed, "Where the hell is that guy?" you muttered to yourself.

You poured yourself another glass of wine, trying to push the thought of Toji out of your mind. You chewed on your lower lip, debating whether or not to call him again. Finally, you gave in, dialing his number for the third time.

Still no answer.

"Fine. If he wants to be alone and not answer his phone, then I guess I'll just have to make dinner for one."

You hummed to yourself as you chopped vegetables, swaying slightly as you moved. You took another sip of your wine, feeling the alcohol warm your cheeks. "I wonder what Toji likes to eat..." you mused aloud, adding more vegetables to the pan than necessary.

You stumbled slightly as you reached for the salt, catching yourself on the countertop. "Whoops!" you giggled, taking another sip of wine. "Maybe I should slow down..."

But you didn't. Instead, you poured yourself another glass, dancing around the kitchen as you cooked. You sang loudly, off-key, not caring who heard you. You were having fun, and that was all that mattered.

Finally, the food was ready. You dished it up, placing one plate on the table and carrying the other to Toji's bedroom. "Dinner's ready, Toji!" you called out, knocking on his door. "Or at least, it would be if you were here..." you muttered, taking another sip of wine. "Gosh, I ended up making dinner for two!" you giggled.

You sat down on his bed, looking around the room. It was sparse, just like Toji. No personal touches, no decorations. Just a bed, a dresser, and a closet full of weird things and condoms. You shook your head, smiling to yourself. " Typical Toji."

You ate your dinner, drinking more wine as you went. By the time you were finished, you were feeling quite tipsy. You lay back on Toji's bed, closing your eyes. "Just a little nap..." you murmured.

[13 minutes later]

Toji unlocked the front door, pushing it open with a sigh. He had spent the entire day trying to distract himself, trying to forget about you and Suguru. But no matter what he did, he couldn't shake the feeling of jealousy from his chest.

He kicked off his shoes, tossing his keys onto the counter. He headed towards his bedroom, but as he opened the door, he froze in place.

There you were, sprawled out on his bed, with your eyes closed. Your hair was fanned out around you, your lips slightly parted as you breathed softly. An empty wine bottle sat on the bedside table, along with an empty glass.
