#happy (belated) birthday hajime

[heich0e]

iwaizumi got a lower back tattoo on his 21st birthday.

if you showed one hundred people in the street a photo of 30-year-old hajime, and then surveyed them as to whether or not they think he has a lower back tattoo, it's unlikely more than one of them would say yes—and even the one who did probably just misheard the question. it's as unbelievable a thought as any, and still somehow it's true.

he was 21, legally drunk for the first time in america, and hanamaki and matsukawa had finally come to california to visit him to mark the occasion. it was kind of a stupid trip, they realized afterwards, because issei and hiro were still only 20 and couldn't even go out to the bars near UC irvine that all of iwa's college friends were inviting him out to for the first time.

but he didn't mind.

he bought them beer and sugary canned cocktails from the convenience store near campus using the birthday money his nanay sent him, silently repenting in his mind as the store clerk in the polyester vest rang the expensive purchase through. then they all got drunk in iwa's tiny student apartment while they played video games, called oikawa, and eventually wandered out into the warm california night in search of food.

the details beyond that are fuzzy, but the lines inked into the little space at the bottom of hajime's spine are not—even after nine whole years.

most people have no idea about the tattoo—and hajime has gone to great lengths to keep it that way. he wears a compression t-shirt at the gym so there's no risk of it riding up and accidentally revealing it. he orders patches to conceal it on the rare occasion he goes to onsens. he never showers with the athletes at work, always either opting to shower at home, shower after the team, or use the staff facilities when available.

but in spite of all of that, he's not embarrassed of it.

he doesn't even really regret it.

it's just not anybody else's business.

the ink on his skin is a secret kept between him, matsukawa, hanamaki, the guy who tattooed him, and oikawa who was screaming on facetime in the background while it happened.

and now you, too.

your hand snakes up the back of hajime's sweatshirt as he stands at the stove preparing breakfast, cool fingertips tracing the curls of ink even without seeing them—having long mapped them to memory. hajime suppresses a shiver, not expecting the contact, as you crowd yourself closer to his back and lean your weight against him.

"i was trying not to wake you," he says quietly, the hand not holding the chopsticks he's flipping his omelette with reaching behind him in search of you.

"you didn't," you murmur into his back, catching his seeking hand in yours and twining your fingers together. "smelled food."

hajime laughs to himself, his eyes crinkling. he squeezes your fingers tightly as his heart thuds in his chest.

underneath his sweatshirt, your nails rake lightly against his skin.

"shouldn't i be making your breakfast?"

hajime transfers his omelette to the plate waiting beside the stove, flicking off the burner and then turning to face you. he wraps his arms around you and holds you properly now, your face burrowing into the collar of his hoodie the way you always do, his nose brushing your temple.

"wanted to let you sleep a bit longer," hajime grunts out, his cheeks burning a bit hot—still shy, sometimes, even after so much time has passed. "thought you might be tired after..."

you snort, your head popping up to look at him. "after you fucked me within an inch of my life into the wee hours of the morning?"

the fire burning under hajime's skin grows even hotter. he splutters a little, and struggles to meet your gaze.

"i'm not tired," you whisper, a mischievous smile tugging at your lips. the incorrigible one he fell in love with. "we were celebrating, after all."

hajime's eyes are burning a little bit, to complement the stinging in his cheeks. you lift your hand up to his face so you can feel the heat of his skin, and he rests his own hand—larger, more calloused than your own—to rest overtop of it. he looks at you, and sees happiness reflected back at him in your gaze. so fathomless he thinks he could drown in it.

hajime turns his face into your touch, and his eyes flutter closed as he noses against your palm.

he presses a kiss there. soft. adoring.

then another, just slightly higher, to the ring he put on your finger the night before.

he peeks at you again, that same heat in his cheeks, though not nearly as unbearable.

he's got another secret he doesn't regret now, one just as permanent as the ink in his skin, but this one won't stay hidden long. eventually he'll call his parents, and his nanay will probably get teary. then he'll tell his friends, who will put his mother's tears to shame. he'll leave the tattoo artist out of it this time, though—wherever that guy is now.

"happy birthday, hajime," you whisper to him with a smile he can't help but return.

he might keep this secret between the two of you today, though. just for a little while longer.

it'll be his gift to himself.

Happy (belated) birthday to Hajime Hinata!

Oh and happy new years

Happy Belated Birthday Tohru!

So I forgot that her birthday was in May, but hey, a late birthday wish is still a wish.

Kyo had planned and prepared all the nice things to surprise her; a dinner, an actual nice present that he specially ordered, and even a beautiful medium sized bouquet, because the big ones are way too pricey and they are kinda in a tight budget. But none goes as planned. It was raining heavily so they couldn't go out for dinner that night. His present for her was back ordered, and the bouquet was in a puddle somewhere. After apologizing for not being so good at these kinds of stuff to his beloved sweet beautiful wife, he had to go to plan B.

So here he is, unwrapping his new birthday present for her: himself. Because he can, and he will.

Anyway, no Tohru can say no to that face.

And that folks, is how they ended up with baby Hajime.

[ciaossu-imagines]

You know, one of your Day Three suggestions is really fitting because it’s a friend’s birthday today so I want to ask in her stead, what would Munakata, Kuroh, Akutagawa and Hajime, Mitsuru do for their s/o’s birthday?

Wow! A super-duper belated happy birthday to your friend! Thank you so much for sending in this cute request and I am sorry it took so long to get back to you, but I hope both you and your friend enjoy the headcanons!

MUNAKATA

So, Munakata is definitely the type, in a romantic relationship, to really want to celebrate all the important dates with his partner. Birthdays, anniversaries (first date, first month together, yearly anniversaries, anniversaries of saying I love you)…honestly, he’s really kind of a sap when it comes to any sort of special date in the relationship and he remembers those dates off the top of his head, thanks to his terrifyingly excellent memory. He’ll never forget his partner’s birthday and he starts thinking of what to do for it weeks in advance.

Munakata will actually celebrate his partner’s birthday twice. He’ll want a more public birthday party for them, where they can be celebrated with the other Scepter 4 members (since it’s important to Munakata, who views Scepter 4 as both a ‘business’ and a ‘family’, to include them in his life, including his life with his romantic partner) and with the friends that are important to his partner. It won’t be over the top and lavish, since that’s not Munakata’s style, but it will be the bigger of the celebrations. On top of that, he definitely wants a more private celebration, where it’s just him and his romantic partner together for a whole day, one of the few days he’ll take off (as much as he can). What they might do that day really depends on what he thinks will make them happiest in the moment – if they seem bored, he’ll try to make it more exciting and adventurous of a day but if they’ve been swamped and seem stressed, he’ll try to make it a really relaxing day for them.

Munakata is such a bad gift-giver. Literally, so bad that it’s almost shocking. So, while he definitely gets his partner at least one gift, though usually more, they’re not great gifts. He tends to give either overly practical gifts or very eccentric or not well thought out gifts – things that he thinks they could have fun doing together that aren’t really his partner’s thing, stuffed animals that are ugly-cute at best, or gifts that he thought they would like and that boggle his partner’s mind as to how he got that impression. He always gives them flowers though, first thing in the morning on their birthday. Unless they’re allergic to flowers, in which case he gives them a bouquet of fake flowers…it’s the thought that counts.

KUROH

Kuroh is another one who really is great at remembering special dates, like his partner’s birthday. He’s not into grand celebrations and he wouldn’t be comfortable planning anything like that for his partner, even if they would like it, but he remembers their day and he does make special plans for it. He always takes time, about a week before their birthday, for him to sit by himself and really pour over every word, on tape and in his memory, that Miwa said about birthdays, and he lets himself be moved by his master’s words in how he’ll approach his partner’s birthday that year.

Kuroh is definitely the type to really want to celebrate his partner’s birthday with just him and his partner. If his partner really wants to celebrate with friends, he’ll request that they do so maybe the day after or before their actual birthday, since he wants to be a little bit greedy and have them all to himself that day. He does plan things for them to do that day and he takes care of the birthday supper and the cake all by himself. It’s the one day of the year where he won’t gladly welcome his partner into the kitchen to play sous chef for him. It just doesn’t seem right for them to have to make their own birthday meal to Kuroh, and he’ll insist on them being nowhere near the kitchen, usually drawing them a hot bath full of whatever bath additives they enjoy most while he cooks, just so that their birthday meal, made with all his love, is a surprise for them.

Kuroh doesn’t really hold much stock in material possessions or buying a lot of gifts, though he does try to get his partner something for their birthday. It’s usually something really small though, with the main gift being the experiences they share together that day, all of his undivided attention and time, and something hand-made, like the meal they’ll share together.

AKUTAGAWA

Honestly, not going to lie at all. Akutagawa is the most likely, out of everyone on this list, to completely forget his partner’s birthday. But, at the same time, just saying that he actually forgets his own birthday and the birthdays of everyone else he knows, so it’s not done out of any malice or apathy towards his partner. It’s just that birthdays really are pretty meaningless to Akutagawa, who hasn’t really ever celebrated his own birthday in any special way.

It will either be Gin, Higuchi, or his own partner who will remind him of the fact that the day is his partner’s birthday. If it’s Gin or Higuchi, Akutagawa will snap at them that of course he remembers and then quickly excuse himself…and then he’ll stress himself out a little by quickly playing damage control as he goes to grab a last-minute birthday card and a cake, which is what he assumes is what you do for a birthday. He’s really bad at gift-giving too, usually just grabbing whatever the media has told him is ‘trending’ or ‘romantic’, like flowers, jewelry, stuffed animals, candles, perfume, etc. His gifts are very generic, not really tailored to his partner, but he is trying his best.

If it is his partner that has to call him out on forgetting their birthday, there might actually be a little bit of an argument because Akutagawa will honestly feel a little guilty and embarrassed to have forgotten and this boy is horrible at dealing with his feelings and lashes out to avoid having to really do so. His partner is probably already used to that bad habit of his and hopefully won’t take his words too much to heart. He will apologize, later on, for forgetting and will try to make up for it, in whatever way his partner would like for him to do so, if it’s within his power and agreeable to him.

HAJIME

Hajime does remember his partner’s birthday most of the time. Like 99% of the time, he remembers and the other 1% is usually just him forgetting because he’s insanely swamped with work and super stressed out. However, because Hajime is a workaholic and his job will always take first priority, it’s not always guaranteed that he’ll be able to celebrate with his partner on their actual birthday. It really does depend on whether or not he can book that day off and have it approved, with nothing coming up that will change that.

If he does have to work the day of his partner’s actual birthday, he’ll still make sure to at least text message them, though he really tries hard for an actual phone call, as he does love and miss the sound of their voice. He’ll apologize for missing their birthday, ask what they’re planning to do to celebrate and will genuinely wish them a wonderful day, and will tell them that he is looking forward to a belated celebration with them on his next day off.

If Hajime ends up getting the time off, or when he does get the time off, because he normally gets several days off in a row with the way that Nanba’s schedule works, he typically plans a trip to celebrate with his partner. He likes to travel with his partner, often either as a road trip, since he loves driving and is very proud of his car or taking them on a relaxing trip to the hot springs. He’ll really make sure to try to devote his attention to his partner and to not let them see any stress or frustration he might have brought home from work.

MITSURU

Mitsuru is horrible at remembering dates, but he’s also pretty aware of that fact and does the intelligent thing. He uses technology, like the calendar app on his phone and the various social media sites he has his partner added on and lets them give him the heads up that his partner’s birthday is coming up and to tell him when it’s finally arrived. He has an alarm set on the calendar app for a month before his partner’s birthday, since he gets really busy with work (despite appearances otherwise) and needs the extra time to really plan out gifts and birthday surprises for his partner.

He definitely makes them mixed tapes/digital playlists every year, no matter how long they’ve been together, of songs that he’s heard over the last year that remind him of his partner. It’s easy to tell how many years they’ve been together – someone just has to look at how many of the playlists Mitsuru has made say HAPPY BIRTHDAY Y/N! on them.

Mitsuru is the most likely, out of all the men on this list, to really go over the top with planning his partner’s birthday celebrations. To Mitsuru, there’s no such thing as being too over the top, and since he really is so happy that his partner was born and really does love them, he thinks they deserve nothing but the most extravagant, craziest, wildest, most fun day, right from the early morning to the stroke of midnight and he will keep throwing surprise after surprise after surprise at them, from the time the clock strikes midnight on the eve of their birthday, to the time it strikes the midnight of the next day.

The new chapter was amazing!✨️

I kind of expected Geto's father's final words to be something like "I love you", but it also ruined me emotionally when I read it? Like, you made me cry on my birthday (in a good way, this chapter was so great). Him thinking about his parents so much in this chapter was very bittersweet? Like, it's great that he starts to reflect on his past actions and accept the idea that his opinions might change/are changing already, but that won't bring his parents back from the dead.

I am so glad Geto is finally starting to accept help from Toji (and that he decided to give up on murder for a while), but the ending made me worried for him all over again. Like, he will feel guilty about that even though no one could expect "1000+ years old freak is going to turn my friend's son into the king of curses while wearing the body of a teenage girl I failed to save".

Toji is such an amazing father figure to everyone I hope nothing bad happens to him ✨️

Mahito and Hajime keep having the world's funniest relationship. Love that for them!✨️ They are worsties.💖

Kenjaku should just drop dead, like why is he still around? Can't he, idk, die of old age. No one wants him alive. Like, a few chapters ago he told Mahito and Pikachu that nobody would miss them, but like, who would miss him?

Sukuna is almost here!🎉🎉🎉Good for him! (Bad for literally anyone else) Poor Yuuji is about to have the worst time of his life...

Yuuta said Maki is his most precious friend!✨️ And he decided to go against Geto when he thought he was about to kill his old family!✨️ My baby is making so much progress!✨️

✨️💖✨️

ahh i am so thrilled you enjoyed it!! i was really proud of this one, tbh i think it's in my top 10 faves :> so many good moments!!

ALSO IT WAS YOUR BIRTHDAY?? HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY!! i'm honored you took the time out of your special day to read my story! you're so right, getou is realizing he made mistakes in his past and even if he acknowledges them & wants to improve himself, there are certain things he just can't take back, and taking the lives of his parents was one of them.

but!! there is still a parent out there who wants to take care of him <333 their relationship makes me so insane

also PLEASE i laughed at "1000+ years old freak is going to turn my friend's son into the king of curses while wearing the body of a teenage girl I failed to save". it's so true and so gutting, too.

FUCK kenjaku dude. NO ONE WOULD MISS HIS SHITTY ASS. mahito & hajime are way better than him and at the very least they'd miss each other, even if they're not ready to admit it (yet). they're so funny and i love them too!

YEAHHH SUKUNA'S ALMOST HERE!! stay tuned for the king of curses crazy entrance!! thanks for reading<333

             "𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐠𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐜𝐫𝐚𝐳𝐲?"

[morethanaprincess-a]

The boy looked at the package, a simple gift wrapped with the store-issued paper at the cashier. It looked so plain and bland that he felt a little insecure –to gift a princess, who can have anything. With a deep breath, he worked up the courage to approach her. ❝ I got something for you. ❞ it was nothing fancy: it was a book, a copy of the Kwaidan to be more exact. It is a book collecting a series of traditional Japanese horror stories.

Autumn, for plenty of reasons, had always been Sonia’s favorite time of year. From the inundation of haunted amusements to the Novoselic Harvest Festival, the princess experienced a certain joie de vivre beyond her usual jubilant, optimistic mood. It was why that, despite the wind and the growing overcast sky, Sonia still chose to spend her lunchtime outdoors. But with the plastic packaging of her beef donburi bowl long since discarded since the end of her meal, she used the extra time to simply sit upon an empty bench and watch the golden brown leaves fall from the tree overhead. Even someone as social, preferring the company of others to her own solitude, needed some time to reflect on her upcoming birthday. As usual, it would be spend in Novoselic and she was due to depart for home later that night. So it was of no surprise to her when Hinata approached her from the Reserve Course campus, wearing what she interpreted as an anxious expression on his face.

“Hinata!” Sonia called brightly, waving in his direction, “Come sit and enjoy the free time we have between classes! It’s a lovely day!” Lovely, of course, was relative. She was just as happy during the brightest, sunny day as she was during a loud thunderstorm. 

But there had been a definitive reason why he approached her that afternoon, beyond a simple hello and inquiry into her day. Sonia smiled, hoping to make him feel at ease as he produced the small, neatly wrapped package. “Oh, you remembered! I did not expect that, but it is a wonderful surprise,” She accepted the present with both hands before delicately unwrapping the paper.

Many people didn’t care for books as a present, especially among the Ultimates. As many of their talents required excessive study of some sort as well as practical application, any downtime was revered and used to decompress and relax. But for Sonia, she could not get enough of her favorite novels, classic and contemporary, comics, short stories...anything that transported her from her world into another. Preferably if mystery, murder, and the occult were involved. So when the paper was removed, the princess could not help but form a smile with her pink lips, tracing over the the cover’s title with her fingertip. 

“I have heard of this Kwaidan, but I have yet to study it for myself,” She murmured, gazing down at the slightly horrifying cover before back to Hinata. This edition was entirely in Japanese, and it would take effort for her to read through the many stories it contained. Written in the early-20th Century, it utilized kanji that she still had yet to master. Her conversation skills were close to impeccable, but reading dense texts was still a struggle. “Thank you, Hinata. I will very much enjoy working to read this myself. I shall learn new disturbing, frightening tales and kanji at the same time!”

[kawaiikatanabushi]

Belated

I know I'm late. I am so belatedly late, I am ashamed. I have been bombarded with struggles, migraines and other reality issues. I know it's no excuse, but I thought Saito-san would allow me a belated birthday story! Set in a modern day AU where touken ranbu swords are sons to their masters. Please enjoy this incredibly late piece! I love you, Hajime-kun! Happy (very late) birthday you tofu loving beauty!

"Happy Birthday, Cousin Hajime!" Two small voices chorused upon opening his apartment door.

Blue met green as Saito Hajime quirked a brow to Okita Souji, who was smiling all-too-innocently. The quiet swordsman sighed, and refrained from rolling his eyes.

"My birthday is February, Souji. March has just begun,"

"Daddy didn't remind us, or else we woulda made you this tofu cake a whole lot sooner," squeaked out the voice of Yamatonokami, whose younger brother Kashuu cut him a glare.

"Yami! That's a surprise!" Kashuu corrected with a hiss.

Saito smiled down goodnaturedley to the two Okita boys. Oftentimes, he was at a loss around children. They were irrational and difficult to maneuver, yet the sons of his cohorts, even the bodacious Izuminokami who was recently four and had a mouth rivaling the speed of a bullet train, always managed to put a smile on his face. Perhaps, it was the reflection of their fathers within them that endeared him to them. Yamatonokami certainly had Souji's playfulness and Kashuu was just as shrewd as his father at the tender age of five.

"Why don't you all come in?" Saito offered politely, stepping aside in the doorway, "It's rather chilly today,"

"Thank you for your hospitality," the two young boys chirped in tandum, bowing slowly before giddily hopping into the tidy apartment.

Souji cast his friend an indulgent smirk, his arms laden down with assorted boxes and bags.

"You spotted the saké, nee, Hajime-kun?" He questioned his friend, a brow arched playfully.

"I suppose you intend to stay the night?" Saito replied with an inquiry of his own, a smirk pulling at the corner of his own lips.

"Their futons are in the car," Souji responded, wriggling his eyebrows with a devious smile, "Once their asleep, the real fun begins,"

His friend brushed past him, handing Saito half the load upon entry. It was atypical, but that gave it a sense of familiarity. If anything, the familial atmosphere warmed his heart and gave him a fond feeling of belonging. It was enough of a gift to him, knowing that he was unconditionally adopted as cousin Hajime. Though a second cousin by blood to Yamatonokami only, he firmly adhered to the title. It held a powerful persuasion should the Okita brothers start a tussle. If cousin Hajime was displeased, everyone was.

His tidy apartment was soon decorated in a bombardment of homespun decorations. Crooked origami animals, paper lanterns and children's drawings were taped about sporadically, giving disorderly joys. Hajime found himself smiling continuously. He even allowed Kashuu to place a paper hat upon his head. The group of four made a humble and enjoyable party. The boys shared funny stories from school, they played charades and Souji feigned ineptitude with nearly every game. It was a refreshing sight, seeing Souji so at ease with his sons. Recently, he had been more snide and stiff at the dojo. Hajime wondered if the presence of Yukimura Chizuru had created the guarded behavior within his friend. He, himself, had been uncertain as to having a secretary to Hijikata-san. His reservations were slowly being eased, as she was such a hard worker. There again, with Souji's recent tragedy, he could hardly blame his cold demeanor. He knew his friend would be hesitant to let outsiders into his pain, he had known Souji since grade school. Still, if she could see Souji's tenderness with his sons, perhaps she would stop flinching around him. There again, she was developing a crush on their Fukucho, so that certainly would exacerbate his mood. It wasn't that Saito was match-making. It was simply more efficient if everyone remained civil.

Hajime shook himself from his thoughts and focused on the present. Though incredibly late, the Okita family was delivering an appreciated birthday party. These issues would straighten themselves out. Besides, worrying over it changed nothing. He would keep Souji's teasing to a minimum and Yukimura would adapt. If anything, she was quick to learn and that was an admirable trait.

After the games had finished, he was kindly forced to open all their gifts, prodded by tiny hands and pleading wide eyes. The presents were few in number, but he remained grateful. Even if white tabi were commonplace, Yamatonokami had been thoughtful and surprisingly practical. The scarf Kashuu had chosen was of a deep blue and though the gold pattern was a little extravagant, it was certainly from the heart. Even if it was intended to goad him, he did want his cat calendar. It was adorable, even if he did not wish to express it. The assorted teas and fruit he was able to thank Souji for more graciously. He could only imagine the expenditures on a household with one parent and two growing sons. Still, it was the friendship he appreciated most.

As dark drew near, Kashuu began to nod from his perch upon Hajime's lap. Without a word exchanged, the adults settled the boys upon the living room floor and Souji bid both goodnight with a kiss to the forehead. Before the two men could slip away with the alcohol, Yami demanded a goodnight kiss from Saito, which Kashuu begged for in turn. It caused him to blush, but he acquiesced as best he could. It was still a new experience, being regarded as family. The two wished him a cheery goodnight and were soon snoozing away.

"Thanks, Hajime," Souji sighed as he settled onto his bedroom floor, "You mean the world to them,"

"I do not understand what I did to achieve their admiration, but I regard them as important as well," he gave a light smile, allowing a cup to be poured for him, "I wish them every happiness,"

Souji swirled the saké in his cup, a small frown growing as he stared at the clear liquid.

"You don't have to do anything for them to love you, you know. You're you, and they think that's beyond cool,"

Hajime glanced up to observe his friend a moment before sighing himself. He could almost read those thoughts.

"Have you heard from her yet?" He asked softly, hoping that Souji wouldn't mind his asking.

"You mean from Akatsuya?" Souji scoffed, shaking his head dismally, "No, Hajime. Almost five years of marriage, gone just like that. No phone calls. No email. Not even a note. I was stupid to think she'd stay. She became mother to Yami and Kashuu was the best mistake we ever made. Literally. It's been eight months now. I thought she'd attempt to do something for Kashuu's birthday, but nothing,"

Hajime knew the answer to the question he had to ask. Perhaps, it was more for Souji's benefit than his own.

"Do you still love her, Souji?" He asked gently, concern etching his features.

He watched tears mist at the corner of his emerald eyes. The heartbreak was evident as shoulders sagged and alcohol was unexpectedly downed in one shot. Okita Akatsuya was the mother of Kashuu and once Souji's wife. She had left unexpectedly last Summer, never to return. Souji had given no one any particular details, but blamed the departure entirely on himself. If anything, Hajime assumed the bullying Yukimura endured was tied to her departure. Souji wasn't particularly fond of women and Yukimura's presence served as an unwitting reminder.

"Would you care to get drunk, Souji?" Hajime offered, unable to offer any verbal solace.

"Just a little," Souji smiled up bashfully, a rare sight, "I know Hijikata-san would have my head, but will you keep it a secret? I won't make a habit of this,"

"Certainly," he smiled back, his features growing wryly, "You enjoy your control far too much to be a continuing drunk,"

"Screw off," Souji huffed playfully, shoving at his knee with a foot, "You're a hypocrite, Hajime!"

He smiled passively, enjoying the victory for a fleeting moment. He had always felt more accepted and at ease with Souji. Even after his first cousin had married her high school sweetheart, he had been grateful to call Souji family. He was, admittedly, his near opposite in almost every regard. Still, he had qualities that made Hajime ever grateful. Though his temper was volatile and his habits slovenly at times, there was a loyalty and protectiveness that never dimmed within him. He wished he could learn to laugh and relax as easily as Souji did. Even after fighting cancer with his first wife and the loss of that battle, his friend still managed to report to work and raise his unruly sons. Hajime wasn't sure he could possess such a strength as to continue on in laughter. If he had lost a first wife only for his second to leave, there would be more lonely nights at the bar. There again, Souji was more drunk on the love of his sons and their well-being than anything. His family made him strong, and Hajime nearly envied him.

Conversations took a more pleasant turn once Souji had enough alcohol to tint his cheeks pink and nostalgia took hold. There was plenty to reminisce and they did so to the fullest. Just for the night, worries were cast aside. Just for the moment, they would laugh as high schoolers. It was a temporary reprieve from reality. They suspended their woes and let friendship remain. Their hangover, especially Souji's, was imminent and yet glanced over. It was true that this was in honor of his birthday, but Hajime knew Souji needed his commaradery. If he could ease the burden of raising children alone, he gladly accepted the responsibility. Souji was as a brother to him and no matter how much he antagonized others or chose to be overly playful, he would remain in that esteem. After all, even a belated birthday was best spent with family.

The concept of a gift

I finally finished something! F I N A L L Y

Even if I’m late as always and it’s short.

And sappy, and fluffy, but please enjoy it.

We all need a little bit more of sugar in our lives.

“What should I do to you?” Hajime said one last time, gloved fingers smoothing over Tooru’s back.

Unmarked, unblemished, clean canvas ready for his ink.

A kiss, just barely there, more of a casual touch of lips on that one mole nestled right under Tooru’s shoulder, but enough of a touch to have him briefly shudder.

Hajime knew this but let Tooru shrug it off, as if it was just from a sudden shiver of cold for having his torso naked on the leather chair.

“… I offered it to you. It’s your choice what to make of it.”

The low rumble of Tooru’s voice was soft and muffled against his own arm, but Hajime heard it nonetheless.

He kissed the mole one more time, before turning back and picking up ink and needles. There’s soft hip hop music in the background, and the slow intake of Tooru’s breath - in and out - steady and relaxed to give him the right rhythm.

This is going to be great.

Tooru has been there more times that he can remember. The soft buzzing of the machine is not scary to him.

Hajime has seen him talking people through painful tattoos more than once, even making them smile despite the pain, helping them stay still even in the most tiring moment, when Hajime had to double a very thin line or while working on a delicate particular.

He didn't need to be there, but Hajime had seen him slither inside the tattooing room more than once during an appointment, perching himself on the spare stool he kept there just for him while he started chatting the client off, relaxing them when they needed it.

But the idea of putting his hands on Tooru's skin… that was something that occasionally had been raised in their conversations at the beginning of their relationship, when everything was new and every word was a discovery.

Tooru had always refused to let himself be tattooed that easily, mostly because he always said he needed the right thing, if he wanted to have it etched on his skin for eternity.

He admired Hajime’s art with all his heart, but thinking about having only one piece, always the same, on his skin… it didn’t sit well with him, or so he did say to Hajime at the time.

It wasn't something he could do lightheartedly. Not if Hajime was the one crafting art on his body.

He wanted it to be something he'd love forever, never growing tired of it, he had said later.

Maybe at the start of their relationship had been presumptuous of Hajime to ask this of Tooru, but he already knew, he could already feel the sensation of the thin silver band around his ring finger.

Warnings: smut, fem!reader, mentions of oral (m), sexual content, a little pervy character, husband!character.

A/N- reposting again cause tags were being a bitch. Let me know how y'all like it. A main focus of this fic is Iwa-chan cause it's his birthday and happy belated birthday to the love of my life

He loves it when you wear your work outfit. It's not even anything scandalous or "slutty" yet he feels the stir in his pants as you step out of the bedroom. Slack pants adorning your beautiful legs. He can see the little cleavage that peeks out of your shirt that is slightly unbuttoned. Your hair damp from the shower and sticks on your neck and the whole room fills with the dab of the sweet perfume that you just wore. He hugs you from behind, burying his nose on your neck and nipping your skin softly. 

“What are you doi–” your laughter broke into a soft breathy moan as you felt him growing against you, softly grinding his hard crotch against your ass as he walked over to the nearest wall, pressing you against it. Soft whimpers escape your mouth as his hands find the way towards your breasts and squeezes it harshly, crumpling that part of the shirt. But who cares? You look so professional. So gorgeous and so damn sexy. 

Nobody can  fathom that this is the same woman who loudly moans out like a slut as he drills his cock inside your cunt every night. Nobody but he can see your fucked dumb face after he makes you cum for the umpteenth time the same night. No one but he has to know that the woman who is held  in such high esteem in her office gets intoxicated as he fucks her mouth till he’s raw and both are shuddering in overstimulation.

That’s what he loves about you– he loves how you can be extremely professional during the day in your work. The woman whose intellectual mind is beaten by no one. Yet you are the same woman who is fucked dumb every night by your loving husband as he rewards you and your hard work. 

“Princess, you feel so good. f-fuck I’m gonna cum,” He groans out against your neck, snapping his hips against you, right at the spot which was enough to send you to haze.

“ we’re g-gonna be late– fuck!” you squeal out as he hits that one spot that has you cumming in mere seconds. You feel his hands dancing around your body, groping every curve till he reaches for your chin, tilting it up towards him and engulfs your lips. His tongue fights against yours at the same time  he increases his pace down below. 

He snaked his hand down towards your neglected clit. He took the nub between his two fingers, pinching it hard, which was the final blow to you. 

Your body blissfully floating in high and soon enough you feel him spurting his own orgasm inside you with a drawing moan of your name.

You breathe out heavily to regain your composure, feeling his hand caressing you to bring you down from high. The room filled with the smell of sex and of your own perfume, your slacks piled in one corner. He looks at your disheveled state and grins.

“Sorry, princess, you look too irresistible when you get dressed for work.”
