Thinking about Itadori Yuji who has never really experienced forehead kisses
Maybe as a baby yeah but throughout his childhood no
He thinks it's just a peck, he likes his kisses full french, choking on your tongue
This sweet boy wants his tongue down your throat
But then he gets his first lover and his views change
Itadori Yuji experience his first forehead kiss from you after Junpei tragedy
He was slumped on the stairs of Jujutsu High, guilt cloaking him like a second skin
He felt so numb and responsible. He felt hatred, for Mahito, for Sukuna, for himself too if he was being honest
When you found him, your buff boyfriend was slumped over and almost lifeless
You quietly sat besides him, hands finding his to intertwine your fingers together
He let his head fall against your chest, silent tears wetting your his hoodie you wore
You could offer words but you knew how stubborn he got.
He truly felt at fault and nothing you said would've changed it
As adoring as his stubborn soul is, it is sometimes tiring
So you simply cupped his face and pressed a soft kiss against his forehead, letting him weep against your skin
His hands slid around your waist, strong arms with the burden on the world on their shoulders
It started when he was in a slump after the whole Junpei situation and sought comfort from his partner in the dark of the night
Those nights filled with silence and cuddles and forehead kisses that spoke a thousand words
You kissed his forehead every night and morning during that period that it became mindless habit, a routine of sorts
Itadori truly thinks he sleeps better when you do give him a big fat smooch on the forehead
Itadori Yuji associates forehead kisses with comfort, with love, and kindness and you
He has concluded, after his debrief with Megs and Nobara, that he only likes it because it's you
He wants you to kiss his forehead nightly now and you happily oblige
He promises himself if he lives long enough to settle down and have a family with you he will pass down the same tradition to his children, putting them to sleep with a big fat forehead smooch
He wants them to learn that a kiss on the forehead means comfort, warmth, affection and that papa loves them
He doesn't tell you this though because he thinks he doesn't have much time left alive (oop jjk modulo readers?)
