While going out on mission, you had gotten hurt. Long story short, you had gotten a little too overconfident in yourself and got hurt, which you knew was idiotic on your part. But you still remained careful as you could despite your injury. As you made your way back, Natsume had caught you. And he wasn’t about to lose another person, especially not someone as stupid as you. He took it upon himself to personally treat your wound as he gave you a stern scolding as he treated the wound. He was fussing like you had seriously injured yourself, and it was kind of making you amused. Like a mother hen fussing over her baby chick. It was endearing despite the harsh scolding you got.

After he finished wrapping the wound in bandages, his red eyes went straight to yours, his usual glare a bit more firmer.

“Are you always this stupid?”

He asked, making you fuss at him now, saying you weren’t stupid and that the injury wasn’t even that serious. Natsume simply rolled his eyes as he put the medical kit back up where it belonged before he walked back over to you with his hands in his pockets. He’d never admit it, not in a million years, but he was glad you were safe. He sat down beside you as he made you lean against him, making you raise a brow up in confusion. Was he really that worried about you?

“Idiot.”

He said flatly, keeping you close and not letting you out of his sights for a mere moment as his eyes drifted down to you resting against him. A worried Natsume was something that you didn’t expect, but hey, you got him a bit soft on you. So… win win you supposed. It was one of the rare times where he genuinely showed you he cared about you, and you always cherished it.

Downside? He’s going to be more protective than usual and it’s clear he isn’t going to let you out of his sight or let you move away from him for even a second now. You’re not moving from this spot unless you absolutely needed to, and when you came back, you’d be right beside him again. It’s only right for making him worry so much, no?
