Husband!Makoto x reader ~Birthday snuggles~

"Mako-kun!" You yelled from the kitchen, setting down three plates on the table along with forks and knives, "dinner's ready!"

"I'll be right down!" You can hear him yell clearly as you hear the paper being stacked from his office.

You turned to your little helper and smile, "come on darling, mommy needs your help with one more thing."

Your five year old daughter smiles brightly back at you before nodding eagerly, grasping your hand.

You then bent down to eye level with her, kissing her forehead, "it's daddy's birthday today, so why don't you go get your present that you made him and give him a big hug and kiss?"

[D/n] nodded again before giving you a kiss and wrapping her small arms around your neck, "ok, mommy!"

She ran off quickly to her room and you laughed lightly, turning and setting the food on the table.

The timer from the stove went off and you ran to it quickly, grabbing some mittens and taking the cake you had made earlier out.

You put it on the counter and waited for it to cool when you heard your daughter's feet running down the hall.

You smiled and walked after her, into your husband's office.

He took another swig from his coffee before noticing the two of you.

He smiled lovingly as your daughter ran up and sat on his lap, holding a clutter of pictures in her hand and a small box.

Makoto looked down at her, "what's that?"

[D/n] smiled widely before setting the papers down and the box, "it's your birthday present!"

She looked up at him excited before hugging him tightly, kissing his cheek repeatedly.

"I love you daddy!" She cheered, kissing his cheek again.

He chuckled, ticking her sides then stopping, kissing the top of her head.

The room was filled of laughter and you found yourself laughing as well.

Makoto then grabbed the papers, looking through them.

"Wow!" He said over exaggerating as he turned to the next picture, "you drew this?!"

Your daughter nodded quickly, a big goofy smile on her face.

He then set the papers down and turned to the heart shaped box, a nice red ribbon placed on it.

He carefully took the bow apart, opening the box.

Inside laid two tickets to the new aquarium that just opened, and matching bracelets, that you had helped [D/n] make.

Makoto smile grew wider as he slipped on his matching bracelet, slipping the other on the little girl on his lap.

He then closed the box and hugged her tightly, "thank you so much, [D/n]! I couldn't ask for anything else!"

He swayed lightly in his chair as she returned the hug, then jumping off his lap and running back to the kitchen.

Makoto didn't seem to notice you in the door way as he looked down at his bracelet, a warm smile plastered on his face.

You smiled as well, walking in and placing a picture frame on his desk.

It was the two of you from high school.

He was wearing his swim suit, his goggles laying around his neck casually, while you were wearing his Iwatobi swim club jacket and a black shirt and jeans.

His arm was wrapped around your shoulder, and you were snuggled into his side, your arms wrapped around his torso.

A huge smile adorned both your faces as well as a small pink tint.

He looked up from his bracelet to the frame.

His smile grew slightly before looking up at you.

He stood from his chair and walked to you, kissing your lips quickly before taking your hand and walking down the hallway.

You both walked in the kitchen, greeted with your daughter waiting in her chair, fork in hand, waiting to be served.

You smiled lightly before letting go of Makoto's hand and serving her, along with you and Makoto.

You wrapped your arms lovingly around his neck from behind him, kissing his cheek, "I love you, Makoto, happy birthday."

He smiled and turned to look at you, kissing your lips again before you let go and sat down.

"Thank you, __________, [D/n]."

He smiled before starting to eat.

Your daughter cheered happily, "of course, daddy!"

She then went to eating along with you.

~*~

You kept small talk during dinner, your daughter constantly stealing from her fathers plate and getting away with it.

You giggled before standing up, icing the cake and writing on it, adding some sprinkles.

You cleared the table of the dirty dishes and put new ones, setting down the cake and turning to Makoto.

His smile never faded as you started cutting the cake, handing him his piece as well as your daughter's.

You went to the fridge and poured them some milk before getting some yourself.

Makoto took a bite from his cake and closed his eyes, savoring the flavor and drinking some milk, "mm, __________, as good as always," he complimented before getting another bite from his cake.

You smiled and thanked him, before turning to your daughter, who was already done.

"Daddy, can I have another slice? ...Please!"

He nodded before setting down his fork and giving her another (bigger) slice of cake.

"Ah, Makoto, you spoil her."

He only chuckled, "I spoil you too and you don't complain."

You giggled and placed your hand on his, "hm, I guess so."

The two of you reached from your seats and pecked each others lips again.

Your daughter finished her cake again before chugging down her milk and running to her room.

You and Makoto then finished up your cake and milk before standing up and walking to her room, only to find her in her pajamas already, sitting on her bed and clutching a book to her chest.

The two of you smiled and walked over to her, tucking her in before laying beside her on opposite sides of the bed, taking the book from her hands.

Makoto then began to read, turning the page only for you to continue.

The system continued for a while before he turned the page, waiting to hear your voice read the next line, only to hear the light breathing coming from the two of you.

Makoto turned his head, a small smile forming on his lips.

At one point, [D/n] must have clutched onto you, only for you to return the favor, your arms wrapped warmly around your little one.

He looked back down at the book, and chuckled lightly, reading the last sentence, "and they lived...Happily...Ever...After..."

He then set the book down, crawling into the small bed that was cramped with the three of you, wrapping his arms protectively around the two of you, [D/n] engulfed with love and warmth as your eyes fluttered open lightly.

"Makoto...?" You questioned, your vision still blurry from your little nap.

"I love you, ___________," he stated, snuggling in closer.

You gave him a tired smile before laying your head back down on the pillow, snuggling back into his embrace, "I love you too, Makoto."

You closed your eyes, Makoto smiling still present on his face as he relaxed, falling asleep.

~*~*~*~Extended Ending~*~*~*~

[D/n] was awake.

By now she felt so warm and safe, the smell of her mother and father's scent clearly in the air.

She didn't dare move a muscle, she didn't want to ruin this perfect moment.

She smiled lightly before feeling her mother bring her closer to her, only for her father to bring the two of them safely into his chest.

Her father still had his work clothes on, while her mother still wore her summer dress from earlier.

She snuggled into the both of them.

Sure, it was great when she got to snuggle with her mom, because a mother's love is the best.

Sure, it was great that she got to snuggle with her dad, because she was a daddy's girl.

But, it was amazing when she had both, to hold onto and love, because these were the nights, when she was older, she would remember and smile, because she had loving parent that would never dare leave her side.
