The cold had finally settled in, and the morning air carried the crispness of autumn.

You sat on the edge of Gojo's bed, your legs dangling over the side as you watched him rummage through the drawer. Ever since the news that you were expecting, you had started spending more time in his room—so much so that it practically became yours too.

It's also because he didn't wanna leave you and the not even a baby yet, alone.

Gojo, kneeled in front of you, he had pulled out the long, cozy leg warmers he had gotten you a while back.

He grinned as he held them up. "You haven't worn these in awhile, and I refuse to let you freeze." It's the ones he bought you before.

His voice was light, teasing, and you couldn't help but smile, though you tried to hide it.

With a careful touch, Gojo began sliding one of the leg warmers onto your calf, his fingers brushing against your skin. You watched him quietly, feeling an odd warmth in your chest despite the chill in the air.

"There," he said as he finished with the first one and moved on to the second. As he tugged the leg warmer over your other foot, he glanced up at you with a mischievous glint in his eye.

"You wanna kiss me, don't you?" he teased, his voice laced with mock arrogance. "I can see it in your eyes."

You huffed, rolling your eyes and crossing your arms over your chest. "You wish," you muttered, trying to ignore him, though the faint blush creeping onto your cheeks gave you away.

Gojo chuckled softly as he finished pulling on the second leg warmer, but he didn't let you get away with ignoring him. In one smooth motion, he leaned forward, lifting himself up from the floor to bring his face closer to yours.

His grin widened when he saw the hint of irritation mixed with affection on your face.

"Too late," he said, his voice low as he leaned in even further, his lips hovering just inches from yours.

"I wanna kiss you."

Before you could protest, Gojo gently pressed his lips against yours, stealing the kiss he'd been teasing you about. The warmth of his kiss spread through you, and despite yourself, you found your arms loosening from your crossed position.

When he pulled back, Gojo gave you a boyish smile, his blue eyes sparkling with that familiar playfulness.

"See? I knew you wanted it."

You let out a sigh, though you couldn't hide the smile that tugged at the corners of your mouth.

"You're impossible," you mumbled, lightly swatting his shoulder.

"And you love it," he quipped, standing up from the floor. He reached for your hands, pulled you up to your feet so you could head out for the day.

"Come on, let's get going before we go late."
