Your alarm started blaring nonstop, jolting you awake. You groaned, burying your face in your pillow. "Too early." you complained, but you forced yourself to sit up nonetheless. Your head throbbed, and your mouth felt dry. "Ugh, I drank too much last night."

You stumbled out of bed, making your way to the bathroom. You splashed water on your face, and you can't help but cringe at your reflection. "I look like shit." you muttered, before heading to the kitchen to have a cup of coffee.

As you rounded the corner, you nearly collided with Toji. He was dressed in nothing but a pair of low-hanging sweatpants, his muscular chest on full display. You swallowed hard, trying not to stare. "Morning." you muttered, moving past him to grab a mug from the cabinet.

Toji raised an eyebrow, leaning against the counter. "You look...rough."

You glared at him, pouring yourself a cup of coffee. "Thanks, I feel great." you exclaimed, taking a sip. "Ahh, soooo good." you sighed, closing your eyes.

Suddenly, you remembered something. You snapped your eyes open, looking at Toji. "Wait, did I...cook for you last night?" you asked, wincing internally at the thought.

Toji nodded, a smirk playing at the corners of his mouth. "Yep. And you were pretty insistent that I eat it, too."

You groaned, burying your face in your hands. "Ahhhhhh! Shit!"

You lowered your hands, looking at Toji with a frown. "Hey, why didn't you answer your phone last night? I called you, like, three times."

Toji shrugged, looking away. "I was busy."

You rolled your eyes, taking another sip of your coffee. "Busy doing what?"

"Mission."

You slammed your mug down on the counter, coffee sloshing over the sides. "Are you kidding me, Toji?! You were just released from the hospital yesterday morning! How could you be so stupid as to take on another mission already?!"

You stormed towards him, pointing a finger in his face. "Do you have a death wish or something? Because if you do, I swear to god, I will help you achieve it!"

Toji crossed his arms, looking unimpressed. "Calm down, drama queen. I'm fine."

"Fine?!" You shrieked, throwing your hands up in the air. "You're not fine, Toji! You almost died last time, and you expect me to just stand by and watch you do it again?!"

You poked him in the chest, hard. "I won't let you kill yourself, Toji. I'll kill you myself before I let that happen."

Toji grabbed your wrist, holding it tightly. "Enough, Y/N. I know what I'm doing. I've been doing this for years."

You struggled against his grip, but he held firm. "Let go of me, Toji." you growled, baring your teeth at him.

He released you, stepping back. "I'm going to take a shower."

You watched him walk away, as you seethed with anger. "Bastard." you muttered, clenching your fists. "I swear, if he dies on me, I'm going to bring him back just to kill him again."

"Crazy woman...always getting worked up over nothing." Toji muttered to himself as he walked away.

He paused mid-step, realizing that his body had reacted to your touch. He glanced down, his cheeks flushing red as he noticed the bulge in his sweatpants. "Shit." he hissed, quickening his pace towards the bathroom.

He slammed the door shut behind him, leaning against it with a sigh. "Fuck, what is wrong with me?" he muttered, running a hand through his hair. "She's just another woman, for fuck's sake. Why does she have this effect on me?"
