A/N: Loooooook at that pic omigosh. All credits go to the artist that had drawn that, whomever you are. So beautiful!

Enjoy this chappie everyone! Hopefully you'll feel as sweet as Panda had felt towards Inumaki and Maguro's fluff moments <3

Itadori got a paper that says 'Baseball'. Just like that, the discussion is over.

Instead of the normal duel, their next competition is Baseball.

Inumaki saw Gojo-sensei walked away, whistling gleefully out the door whilst the two Tokyo and Kyoto's headmaster scratched head on the new vote. But that's that. The decision is made for the next competition. Nothing can be undone, and they had no choice but to accept it.

The day ended with all of the competing students from both Tokyo and Kyoto Tech given 1 day leave to recuperate from the previous event of that day. They'll only have the baseball competition on the day after tomorrow, hence giving them plenty of time left to socialize.

"Yo Fushiguro!" Itadori exclaimed happily, slapping one arm on his other shoulder and pulled him in a back hug. "Let's go get the meatball ingredients!"

Fushiguro frowned and almost retorted something back before he quickly realizes his promise to Maguro.

Meatball soup tonight.

Judging by how she had wailed all out when Gojo-sensei broke his promise with the overseas chocolate, he quickly nodded his head and followed Itadori out, nothing that it wasn't a good idea to restart that wail. They were lucky Inumaki knew how to pacify her.

Oh. Wait.

Inumaki and Maguro are going out.

He grinned. Of course. He would know best. It's only natural he knew how to pacify her. Good for him, he thought quietly to himself. To have found someone who understands him through all the onigiri vocabs he has there.

And it's also natural for Inumaki to act possessive of her, always keeping her close to him if possible. At Maguro's foodie rate, if the situation ever arises, she'd just about follow anybody home with a promise of a feast. Not to mention she's the only Tsukigami left. She's valuable enough to the Jujutsu clans out there to earn Inumaki's undivided attention.

Lest she got snatched up by people like Noritoshi Kamo. Now that – that – is one brave idiot.

To openly admit he wants to touch her after Todo had outright spoken against it. Fushiguro thought that the time for Noritoshi Kamo might not be now, but he'll surely get some form of repercussion after this.

Inumaki, on the other hand, went back to the dorm with Maguro in his arms, closely followed by Maki and Panda. Nobara had decided to go with the duo that went out to buy meatball ingredients and followed them suit after they have left the group. The rest of the Kyoto students were ushered to the other quieter wing of the dorm house, but otherwise, they all share the same common areas and canteen.

The canteen had just started to serve some dinner portions for all the staffs in the Tokyo Tech College. Inumaki knew Maguro would have wanted to eat something before the real dinner Itadori and Fushiguro is making later and nudged her forehead with his cheek as he walks to gently wake her up.

Jealously fired up from within Nishimiya's heart when she saw that. She stomped on her small feet and wrung her hands around the handle of her broomstick.

But no one notices because no one cares.

"Tuna, Tuna?" (Maguro?) Inumaki called her softly, rubbing his cheek against her forehead. "Maguro? Koi? Do you want something to eat? We're passing the canteen in a while."

Maguro's eyes snapped open at the sound of anything related to food.

Inumaki wanted to laugh. He knew she would wake up at that calling. It was always so refreshing to see Maguro's reactions. It was some amazing wake up alarm for her too whenever anything food related is brought up despite her being in deep sleep.

"Oh, canteen? Oh, yum. Yes, please. I'm starving," Maguro swallowed at the thought of food, looking up tiredly at Inumaki as she rubbed one of her eyes. Not realizing her surrounding nor the fact that she is talking out loud, Maguro continued in a slight slurred tone heavy with sleep and bite her lips at the sight of Inumaki looking down at her without his usual neck cover, "Oh, Toge-Yummy-kun. Yes, you would do."

Hot blush crept across Inumaki's face and ears. He had given Maguro his jacket to cover her skirt so that he could carry her with ease without worrying about exposing her to perverts he might not know that loiters around in the Kyoto side. He now only wears his inner dark t-shirt with short sleeves, his bicep muscles protruding from his sleeves while carrying Maguro in his arms.

An intense desire to hug her tightly came washing over him. He really, really wanted to hug her tightly to him now and rub his nose on hers. Sleepy Maguro is just so cute she's making even him blush!

Carefully setting her back down onto the ground, Toge held onto Maguro until he is sure she could stand on her own.

"Thank you, Toge-kun," Maguro said, holding onto his arm for support. She blinked in surprise when she realizes instead of the normal uniform, she is touching his arm.

His bare skin.

"Oh," Maguro blushed, feeling his hot bare skin on her hand. "Oh..." she mumbled, taking in the sight of Inumaki not wearing his normal uniform, but the dark-t-shirt that made him looked so good with that short sleeve showing off his nice arms and that dark V shaped neckline that showed off the nice set of collarbones he have that just calls to her attention and unabashed open admiration on top of that lovely beautiful cursed seal on both of his cheeks right by his attractive mouth he used to kiss her on the rooftop-

"Not now, Maguro," Toge stopped her thoughts with his own, slapping one palm uselessly on his face to hopefully cover the blush that is sure to have spread far and wide across his face and ears now. "Later, later."

Maguro closes her eyes tightly and wished she would just drop down dead right now.

Loosening the knot Toge tied his uniform on her waist, Maguro quickly give the uniform back to Toge, whilst he gratefully wore it back and zipped up the high collar covering half of his face.

Alright, he thought to himself. Blushes on face out of the way. Now only left them blushing ears.

"Oh, don't worry about that, Toge-kun. I got your ears," Maguro said sweetly, tiptoeing up and using her small hands to cover his red ears from public sight. Overcoming his initial surprise when she leaned up to him, he smiled at her endearingly and kisses the inside of her wrist through his high collar, making sure to pout and apply a bit of pressure so she could feel him kissing her wrist.

"Thank you, my lovely," he said to her with a smile, brushing the stubborn baby hair that fell into her eyes. "What would I do without you?"

Maguro blushes sweetly and smiled brightly to him as a response.

"Ouch," Panda exclaimed, holding onto the side of his jaw, alarming Maguro and Toge. They didn't know Panda had crept up to them from behind and snickered with Maki from afar. The cursed doll looked up and grinned at them. "My tooth ache because you both are being too sweet."
