You slip your hand into his and squeeze it, trying your best to give him some comfort. He's quiet as he accepts your hand. His match against Reiji was hard. You had seen the way he almost broke down. The way his face twisted into horror. The battle seemed to last hours before it was finally over.

"Are you okay?" You asked quietly, gently rubbing circles on the skin of his hand. You pushed yourself to push the issue, "I watched you during the battle..." you stared at him. He refused to speak instead, he rested his forehead against your shoulder. You didn't say anything as you used your free hand to rest on his head, running your hand through his light locks. You let out a quiet sigh, looking away as he let go of your hand, using his hands to grip onto your sides.

"I'm sorry" he whispered as he finally looked at you, pulling away to wipe his tears. You smiled gently, taking his hand away from his face and leaning up to press a gentle kiss to his cheek.

"I'm proud of you Hyoma. I'm so proud of you" you whispered as you ran you pushed the hair out of his face. You gently ran your thumb under his eye, wiping away any stray tears. "You did your best and I'm so proud of you for it. You worked so hard" he placed his hand over yours, closing his eyes.

"I love you Hyoma" you whispered, he opened his eyes, staring into your before his free hand slipped behind your head, holding your neck as he pulled you into a deep kiss.

"Thank you (Name)" he mumbled against your lips.
