One-Shot: When he wakes up in the middle of the night

(Not related to covidcases bc I haven't made up my mind. I hope everyone is okay! Will publish the short covidcases soon. Please wait for it! I found this one shot draft.)

--

Irie Naoki has the attitude of ignoring his wife in public. He is shy... he admitted it and is willing to have courage but he surely can't win against on his powerful wife, Irie Kotoko. He wants to be clingy too... with the idea of holding her hand in crowded people, in the school, in the hospital or anywhere... but the powerful grip of her wife when she snakes her hands on his arm, it melts him away.

He loves her giggles. And even memorized her footsteps outside his class, been used to the situation when she secretly follows him all day... he knows it was Kotoko all along. Later on, before he admit to himself that he's been falling in love with her, her power gave him the abilities to do anything... and that including the ability to find her skipping traces everywhere. And with that, he finally learned how she thinks... it was very silly for  other people but he likes the idea that Kotoko rotates in his world.

"Why he hasn't registered your marriage yet? What's wrong with Irie Naoki?" he heard her friend talking about that in the cafeteria.

Kotoko pouted, "Maybe, Irie-kun... doesn't love me that much. Matsumoto-san said that I am under his probation. What if he will end it like this? I don't know what to do," she sighed and almost to cry. He looked at her from a far, hoping that she could understand of why he's doing this though she may be stupid... but he failed miserably... he build up walls for himself so it may be hard for Kotoko to understand him without him, saying anything.

He feel the need to marry her properly. Before her mom rushed in and planned their marriage by herself, he had long list of detailed plans of their own wedding. He wanted it to be simple, for the both of us... he wanted to be affectionate at that time... but due to her mom's nosy atttitude... he kept it buried within himself. He haven't showed it to her yet.

And whenever it's time to get sleep, he admits he has trouble of being with his wife. Not trouble as in disaster... it means that he doesn't know what to do when his heart is pacing back and forth. Kotoko never failed to give effects on him. She is best at doing that. He hopes that she will see through his eyes what she truly feels for her. It was beyond infinity.

Every night, he always asks himself to see if it's true... that he got her successfully all this time. That he made her stay with him even if he has that kind of personality. He believes that Kotoko is slowly melting the inside of him.

And when he wakes up in the middle night, he would see her sleeping so peacefully beside him. He would take a good chance to look at her face... and even to wonder about the things for the future... or the things that have been passed. He was indeed happy that he did all of those with her. Ever since when Kotoko started clinging to him, his life turned a bittersweet and yet exciting... like riding a roller coaster ride.

He would pull her into his chest, cover her with the warm blanket and cuddle while snaking his arms around her waist.
