ⓘ Featuring 𝓓𝐞𝐧𝐣𝐢... proposes with a ring pop as aftercare !
Denji's hands shook slightly as you lay down on his chest. He was slowly catching his breath & quickly wrapped an arm around your hip & stroked the soft, bare skin.
He was keeping his thoughts away from what the two of you'd just done: how good you made him feel, how good he'd made you feel, how surprisingly gentle he wanted to be & God, how pretty you'd sounded.
He'd never heard anything sexier in his whole life.
Nothing he'd imagined before could even compare to how exhilarating it felt.
The only thing that kept him from jumping up, running around & gushing about it was how perfect you looked pressed up against him. He couldn't ruin that.
"You okay?" Denji whispered, hand pausing as you lifted your head to smile at him; the smudged mascara on your cheek sent a spark through him.
Fuck… You looked even prettier looking at him like that.
"Yeah! Yeah, I'm okay. Just… processing, Denji." You hummed, lulling your head back against his chest. "Not every day… that happens."
"God, I'd like it to." Denji blurted out, freezing up as he realized what he'd just said; the thought of getting to do that daily sent his blood rushing south, & he adjusted the blanket over his lap subtly.
"Hey! No!" You hissed jokingly, swatting at his crotch over the blanket. "I meant… firsts, Denji. Goodness, keep it soft."
"Aw, baby!" He pouted, swatting your ass lightly. "You tease me too much. I thought you wanted it daily."
Denji pressed a quick kiss to your temple as you huffed. "I didn't say I wanted that or not, you know; you're imagining things." You rested your hand firmly against his abs. "Just, keep doing that thing with your hand from earlier—it felt like heaven."
Not a second later, he was back to caressing your hip again, slower this time as he watched your peaceful expression grow softer.
Denji took a slow inhale before kissing your temple again. "That was amazing, you know? I'm glad it was with you. I needed that more than you know."
You leaned up with a soft giggle escaping your lips, cupping his jaw before catching his lips in a quick kiss. "You, my love… are a total dork…" You stopped, a fluster growing in your demeanor, before tucking yourself back against his side. "I'm glad it was with you, too."
"Hey now, this dork was driving you crazy not ten minutes ago." He teased, bringing his free hand to caress your cheek, dragging you up to meet his gaze.
"Baby! No!" you hissed, curling the blanket up. "Don't just talk about it; that's so embarrassing." You shoved your face against his smooth chest with a huff, almost pinning him down.
"Is this your way of keeping me in place? Do you want to cuddle?" Denji mused, stroking your back slowly. "You could have just said that."
"Fine," you sighed, adjusting yourself on top of him to nestle comfortably into his shoulder. "My body still feels like it's floating, & you, you're so warm, & for whatever reason, cuddling's making me feel better... plus, can't you feel my breasts like this if we stay still?"
Denji let out a short snort at your words before freezing up as you glared at him. "Oh! No, no. Baby, that was sweet. It's just funny—you think you need to bribe me with boobs, so I'd cuddle? I'd do anything you asked, boobs or not."
He huffed out another snort. "Thought you needed to let me feel em' to cuddle. Please. Anything you want, just tell me, okay?" He mused, pulling you closer as his grin grew wider.
"Denji, you know how I love you so, so, so much?" You mumbled, nuzzling against his shoulder as he nodded.
"Yes? I like to think we make it very obvious to each other how much we love one another." He purred, grasping the plump flesh of your ass teasingly before quickly rubbing your hip again. "You make it quite clear at least," Denji whispered, tucking the blanket over your shoulder.
"Well… after sex, the participants are typically quite tired. They take a breather... share a snack, physical affection, I don't know, talk while they reregulate..." You explained, trailing a hand up his chest, rapping your fingers slowly. "I'm dying to just cuddle until my legs don't feel all tingly anymore."
"Oh. Oh. Oh." Denji's eyes slowly widened, and a crimson blush quickly filled his cheeks. "Oh my god, baby, I can't believe I didn't even think about getting you a snack." He groaned, dragging his free hand down his face before moving to stroke the small of your back. "Do you—"
He cut himself off, moving to sit back up, before you dragged him back down next to you. "Let me put this simply: move, and I'll bite you until you lie back down." You hissed, leaving your boyfriend speechless as he blinked at you.
Fuck that was new—but why did he kind of like it?
"I have some candy in my drawers, chocolate bars, gummies, lollipops, Ring Pops, anything you want, I probably have." He explained, motioning to his nearby nightstand. "I won't have to get up."
You huffed out a laugh against his skin, the sensation of the blowing air sending a quick spark up his spine as his eyes fluttered.
You knew just how to ruin him.
"Yeah… I'd like something sweet." You nodded lazily, almost nuzzling into him as he swung aimlessly at the nightstand, tugging the drawer open just enough to pull the baggie of miscellaneous candies out
"So… you think you're going to be like this every time we have sex?" He whispered, a slight hint of tease lacing his tone. You could tell he wasn't against the idea from how much he was melting into your touch, following your skin with each slight shift.
"Mm. No, I don't think so." You sighed, lazily blinking up at him & stroked his cheek. "I think this time I just don't want you to go since you know… tonight's special."
He let out a quiet hum at that, pausing to think for a moment as he placed the bag of candy between your stomachs.
"Yeah?"Denji nodded, taking out a chocolate bar & motioned for you to grab yourself something. "That's good to know."
You peeled yourself off of him with a sleepy huff, before wiping your cheeks lazily & planting a quick kiss to his jaw, letting him sit up beside you.
You fished out a pack of gummies, ripping them open & passing him one just as he opened the chocolate bar. "You're so sweet, Denji. Most guys wouldn't have tried… God, they're just not you." You sighed, bumping your shoulder against his.
You peeled yourself off him with a soft huff, wiping your cheeks lazily before kissing him on the cheek.
You grabbed a pack of gummies, ripping them open & handing him one as Denji opened his candy bar. "You're sweet, Den. Most guys aren't as... well, they're just not you." You hummed, bumping your shoulder with his.
He smiled, lazily bumping you back. "Yeah? Well… you're sweeter, love." Denji sighed dreamily, popping the gummy in his mouth, "When you want to be at least." He tore you a piece of his chocolate before sinking against the heardboard
"You see why snacks are so important?" You teased, slowly brushing through his hair. "It's domestic. You know, some people can ever make the after better than the sex.'
Denji leaned into your touch as soon as the caress came, sending you a quick pout with a quiet whine. "I'm doing this right… right?"
The look he shot you was soft yet guarded, like he was prepared for you to tell him he was doing this entirely wrong.
You froze, tugging playfully on his hair, ignoring the crimson flooding your cheeks once more before nodding. "Yes. You've done… exceptional, in both departments, Denji."
"Yeah?" His eyes lit up & he placed the half-eaten candy bar on his nightstand. "So it's been… special?"
"Idiot," you groaned, tossing another gummy in your mouth before tracing his jaw slowly, admiring the soft skin. "Yes. I don't know how else to word it. You've made tonight very special for me, Denji. I only hope I've made it as special for you."
"With how you said my name earlier? Nothing will ever be as special as that for as long as I live." He mumbled, kissing your wrist, his soft lips causing your eyes to flutter.
Fuck, why was he so good at doing that?
"Hey! No—god—that's embarrassing, Denji." You hissed, swatting at him playfully before he caught your wrist & kissed up the flesh slowly.
"I meant it," he assured, locking eyes with you. "I don't think anything can compare ever again. You are a masterpiece, and I'm lucky to have felt you."
"I'm… wow." Your voice cracked, eyes welling up with tears as Denji pulled you closer. "Keep this up and I'm marrying you one day, idiot."
"Please?" he whispered, bringing his hand up to push your hair away from your cheeks. "Please."
"Fuck, you can't just say 'please' like that, Denji," you rasped, grasping his hand to intertwine your fingers together as you blinked back the threatening tears.
"Why not? Is it working?" He pouted, giving your hand a quick squeeze as you nodded. "Then why would I stop?"
"Because I'm tired, and you're looking at me like that, saying 'please' about marrying me is not going to help me sleep tonight." You huffed out, Denji slapping around his lap for a moment till you heard the crinkle of the candy bag.
"Just a second." Denji tore his eyes away from you and nearly dumped the snacks out, looking for something until he pulled out a ring pop.
"We're having a moment, and you decide it's lollipop time?" You sighed, fighting back a fit of giggles at his furrowed brow. "Jesus, babe."
"Hush for a second." He groaned, letting go of your hand so he could properly rip open the packaging & hold up the Ring Pop.
"Uhm… Okay?" You nodded, resting your hands in your lap, nodding for him to do whatever on earth he was doing.
"Y/N, L/N. I've known for a while how much I love you. But until tonight, it hadn't fully clicked to me how deeply it ran, and now you've teasingly said you wanted to marry me… I'm wholeheartedly admitting it. I'd marry you right now without a heartbeat if possible—will you take this Ring Pop and know how much I love you?"
He rambled on, & with each heartfelt word, you felt the tears you'd fought so hard to get down spill down your cheeks.
"Idiot," you hissed, arms shooting out to crush him to your chest. "You're so stupid sometimes I don't even—God, you're perfect. You're perfect, Denji."
"So… one day, you want to get married?" He whispered in your ear, careful with the ring pop, so you two wouldn't break it in two.
"Yeah… I think we're going to get married one day." You nodded, kissing his shoulder as he grasped one of your hands, slipping the candy ring on slowly.
"Thank you." He whispered in your ear, only for you to shoot back and raise an eyebrow, pulling your hand free before he pulled it back. "Wait—"
"Denji?" You giggled, leaning closer till your noses almost brushed. "Did you just thank me for being open to marrying you one day?"
He couldn't believe himself. He'd just secured the bag of a lifetime & said 'Thank you!' ' right after.
"I mean—fuck—I know you probably didn't want that to be my first reaction to that. I meant thank you for…" He groaned roughly, trailing off as he watched your kind expression. "Thank you for being you and putting up with me."
"Yeah… and I'll gladly do it for the rest of forever. Got it?" You teased, lifting the Ring pop slowly, dangling it before his eyes. "You did this. You're stuck with me."
