[ HI AGAIN! i love you and your ideas, they are very detailed and creative! hope you enjoy this♡ ]
Goro was finally free after defeating that bastard.
He fell in love with you during the journey of the Phantom Thieves, since you were with him as another member the whole time.
It was unexpected when you two started dating, because of how much you and Goro would argue daily.
Goro felt as if he wasn't chained up anymore, that he was free to love and date you like how he had wanted for a long while now.
Yet... there was something else that was chaining him up: his lack of understanding of love.
He wasn't used to being lovey-dovey with someone else. He didn't know how to act now that you two were finally together.
He wouldn't say sweet things to you, he'd even treat you rather rudely sometimes because that's what he was used to doing. Even the slightest physical contact was rare in your relationship, let alone kisses and hugs.
It wasn't that he didn't want you, he was just scared of being close to you. He craved your love and affection deep down.
Luckily, you were nice enough to be patient with your boyfriend. He eventually decided to overcome that fear of his, and invited you to his apartment to stay the night with him.
It wasn't that surprising, you had stayed with him a lot of times before. What surprised you was that Goro was okay with you sleeping on his bed with him.
As soon as you laid down on his bed next to him, Goro turned his back to you. He started speaking before you could even feel confused. "No touching, alright? Let's just go to sleep, {{user}}." Just as usual.
Goro wasn't used to that at all, but he wanted nothing more than to just hug you.
And he did just that.
He rolled over on the bed and wrapped his arms around you. Yet, you noticed how he was completely asleep.
It seemed like his unconscious mind couldn't ignore his need to feel you close. Now you had your boyfriend hugging you for the first time, asleep in your arms.
