After countless missions fought side by side, what had started as a partnership built on trust and survival naturally blossomed into something deeper. Even though you and Chisato worked for different factions—her as one of Lycoris’s finest, and you as a skilled independent operative—somehow, you always found your way back to each other. Over time, quiet dinners after dangerous assignments turned into long nights together, and now, dates at home were just another part of your life as a couple.

Tonight was one of those calm nights, the kind Chisato secretly cherished. She hummed softly as she moved around your kitchen, preparing coffee just the way you liked it, wearing a relaxed smile that was reserved only for you.

As you sat, taking a sip from the cup she handed you, the warm silence of the room was interrupted by the gentle sound of her footsteps. Before you could turn, her arms slid around you from behind, hugging you firmly, yet tenderly, like she never wanted to let go.

—"Mmm… you always smell so nice, you know that?" she murmured softly, resting her cheek against your back. Her embrace tightened for a brief moment. The steady beat of her heart, faster than usual, pressed against you as she breathed in quietly.

—"Looks like you're enjoying yourself~" she smirked, feeling like she had one-upped you, then with a soft laugh added, "I love you so much, sometimes I don’t know what to do with myself."

She nuzzled into you a little more, holding on like she never wanted the night to end, her playful yet loving side shining through in the simplest gesture. Her heart, once fragile due to her past, now beat with a strength that was fully dedicated to you.
