Stressing about university (Geto)

A/N: I'm having a bit of a hard time with basically everything. I'm so fucking stressed, and overwhelmed by all the things I'm supposed to do. There's so much crap going on and I just needed to write some comfort stuff for myself. Non curse AU, reader is a uni student in their early twenties (at least) and Geto has already graduated, they're not living together

"Can't I just try to drink myself into a coma? I could really use the rest" you asked half-jokingly, as you looked down at your glass.

"No, I don't think that's an option, not a good one anyway" Geto said, taking the glass from you and downing the last bit of bourbon that was left in the glass. "That's enough of that for today"

He set both your glasses down in the sink and returned to sit on the opposite side of the table from you. You hadn't seen each other for over a week and Geto had undeniably missed you, but he could see you weren't doing too well. He had been busy at work, but it felt like you had also been avoiding him a bit. Now that he'd finally been able to come to see you, he'd found you with a glass of liquor in your hand. Luckily, it was just your first drink, so he decided to join you. Just for one drink.

"I don't know how the fuck I'm supposed to handle all this stress and shit. It's all crap, and I'm so tired" you groaned, slowly banging your head on the table.

"Have you noticed you curse a lot more when you're stressed?" Geto asked, trying to lighten the mood.

You glared at him for a moment, before continuing to slightly smack your forehead on the table.

"Hey, stop that" Geto said, sliding his hand between your head and the table, which made you just rest your head on top of his hand. "Talk to me"

"I'm just drowning in all these damn assignments and upcoming exams. Also one of the group assignments I'm a part of has a deadline in a few days and the others in my group haven't done shit. It's basically just been me doing things and the stuff they have written has just been straight up fucking wrong, and I've had to correct basically all of it" you grumbled.

"Well they sound useless" Geto affirmed. "Just make sure you don't do their part too, it's not your job"

"Yeah I know, but I also need to pass this course, so I'm probably going to have to help them at least..." you sighed, raising your head. "I just have to start doing the other assignments too, but I can't make myself do it. It's so fucking annoying"

"I could just keep you company while you work on your assignments, if that helps?" Geto asked, pulling his hand back since you weren't resting your head on it anymore.

"It probably would, to be honest" you said. "But not tonight, I think I need to go to sleep, I'm exhausted. Do you want to stay the night?"

"Sure, I have a day off tomorrow anyway so we can sleep in if you don't have any early lectures" Geto smiled gently.

"I don't have any classes at all tomorrow actually, so I can try to work on the assignments that have the deadlines soon"

"I'll keep you company" he promised.

"Thanks, you really are the best" you yawned. "I'm gonna go brush my teeth and go to sleep. Do you want to stay up longer or are you coming to bed too?"

"I think I'll come to bed with you" he answered.

You both did your little evening routines, and soon you were laying in bed together. You snuggled up to Geto, and he wrapped his strong arms around you and pulled you close. You felt warm and some of the school stress was melting away as you laid there with him, his arms wrapped around you. He always managed to make you feel better. He didn't say anything revolutionary, he was just there for you. He knew your needs, and he always considered them in whatever he did.

Geto was glad to spend the night with you. He was glad to have you in his arms and feel your body against his. He knew how hard it could be to keep up with all the work that attending university came with. He wasn't surprised you were stressed, he just hoped you wouldn't burn yourself out like he did in the past. It wasn't a pleasant experience, and he wouldn't wish it on anyone, especially not you. Geto wanted to help in any way he could, and if just keeping you company was all you needed right now, he was more than happy to do it.
