Being sick was the absolute worst. Especially when you have a puppy like boyfriend that wants nothing but to be around you, and doesn't make it any better that all he wants to do is shower you with affection and care.
Laid back down, snot was bubbling out your nose and you were tucked beneath warm multiple blankets. Praying that your boyfriend yuji itadori wouldn't walk in for the fourth time to check on you. It wasn't like you didn't love that he was willing to take care of you, you just didn’t want him to get sick.
Yuji walked into your shared living room, sitting at the edges of the couch pressing the back of his hand to your forehead. “It looks like your fever is cooling down,” he gently spoke. “Yuji, you don't have to take care of me; I can take care of myself.” You sighed into a lengthy cough. You hated how he gave you those confused puppy eyes.
“and plus I don't want to get you sick!” Those eyes that were basically a gateway into his mind. Even if you told him to leave, the shimmer in his eyes and the way his eyebrows knitted together, and the way his lips fell into a pout, told you that he had no intention of leaving. “but.. but..but,” he whined, still sitting at the edge of the couch giving you those eyes. You let out yet another loud sigh.
There was no winning with him. “Fine. You can stay— but don't blame me if you get sick.” You looked away from him, trying to pretend to be upset but that seemed to fuel him, his face beamed and you could feel his imaginary tail wagging with excitement.
“And don't worry about me baby, I have the strongest immune system ever! So don't worry your pretty little head off.” He smiled, his smile was so contagious that you didn't even realise you were smiling back at him in response.
