after he won the fight against the King of Curses, Sukuna — he had to face many consequences.

his body being completely scarred was one of them.

nobody knew but he felt disgusted by himself. the once handsome and strongest sorcerer who would charm anyone he’d want turned into.. a what?

a monster. — that’s what he thought.

but to you? he was beautiful. he always was.

he couldn’t just believe you; that’s why he started to act distant and hide his face from you.

the insecurity destroyed him.

until one day, you were in his room after a while.

it was your first time seeing him in weeks.

he was sitting next to you on the couch as he talked about nonsense, staring down at his hands.

you couldn’t help but notice how he was nervous; then you grabbed a marker and some stickers you had in your bag.

you gently grabbed a hold of his hand in yours as you started to draw small stars around his scars.

he stared at you through his blindfold, in disbelief. he felt like the time stopped.

the way you were so careful and gentle with him like he was worth everything.

he didn’t understand why.

but,

he felt finally wanted and loved.

“{{user}}…” he managed to mumble.
