Thank you so much! I’m thrilled that someone I follow not only
followed back but put in a request, that’s high praise indeed. Thank you so
much for requesting this grumpy sweetheart. He’s such an amazing character and
I wish he got more love!

Yukio Kasamatsu – “Captain’s Care”

“How am I going to get this all done?!” you say, voice high
pitched and slightly whiny but Kasamatsu doesn’t mind; he’s used to being
around Kise all the time after all. Though with you, his solution to whining
isn’t a swift kick to the head.

Leaning against the door way of your kitchen, he looks at you
with concerned eyes as you hold your head in your hands, trying not to cry. He
knows how strong and dependable you try to be for everyone (most often
succeeding which is why people continually come to you for help) and it pains
him to see you so stressed out.

Kasamatsu is exceptionally thankful for you. Being the only girl
he’s ever been able to actually talk to you’d formed a friendship rather
quickly. It hadn’t taken long from that point for him to fall for you
completely. To his immense joy and relief, he found out you felt the same way
and the two of you have been dating officially ever since.

As captain, his attention has been focused heavily on the team,
but you’ve been an amazing pillar of strength and support. It helps that you’re
so active in school activities as well but he can see that the combination of
being on the yearbook committee and third year banquet planning team while
preparing for college entrance exams is too much. To top it all off, you insist
on going to every single one of his games, cheering until you can’t talk the
next day.

Yep, he really hit the girlfriend jackpot with you.

Which is why he’s determined to do what he can to help you now.
Striding forward, he pulls you away from the yearbook drafts to the living
room. Sitting down on the couch, he pulls you into his arms. A year ago, he’d
never believe himself to be this openly affectionate with anyone but with you
it’s easy; everything is so easy in fact he wonders if this is a dream. Aren’t
couples supposed to fight more?

Pushing away this tangent of thought, he grasps your head in his
hands, forehead pressed against yours.

“Y/N, take a deep breath,” he says, taking one himself that you
mimic. “Good, now tell me what’s bothering you?”

“Oh Yukio, I just…I want everything to be perfect! This is our last year and it’s hard editing down people’s
page submittals because I want to be able to give them everything they want!”
You sniff, head dropping down slightly. “And the catering company for the
banquet isn’t sure now if they’ll have enough tables and chairs! What am I
going to do? Have people sit on the gym floor in their nice clothes?”

“Ok, ok, take another deep breath,” he says, rubbing your back.
You do as he says, closing your eyes and leaning more heavily into his embrace;
he’s always so warm.

Leaning back, he tucks your head under his chin, hand trailing
through your hair. Letting out a deep breath he says, “I know you want to give
everything to everyone but it’s just not possible.” When you nod he goes on, “So
if you’re struggling with the editing, why not have someone else from the team
do it? They can edit and give them to you for the final sign off. That way
you only see the finished product and don’t have to think about everything you
had to discard.”

You consider his words for a moment; he has a point. You’re the chief
editor but you have other people on your team you could delegate the actual
crimping to.

“As for the catering company, instead of having the meal in the
gym why not have it in the cafeteria? I don’t know, as a kind of, farewell to
the most social room of the school but with food that’s actually good?”

Your giggle makes his usually serious face split into a grin.
Pulling back up, you kiss his lips gently, hand holding his face.

“Thanks Yukio, you’re the best,” you say.

“No, you’re the best,
I’m just meaner than you,” he replies and you smile.

“I love you,” you whisper before kissing him again.

Turning you over, he covers your body with his. “What do ya say,
you take a break?” Leaning down, his lips caressing your neck bringing a
breathy sigh from your lips he adds, “I have other ways of helping you de-stress,
you know.”
