... A little. [A lot tbh.] You might worry even though you don't need to.

Of course I'm going to worry.

It's fine if you don't want to tell me now. I'll get mad if you push yourself again.

I won't, I promise.

[For once she can actually keep this promise since Gilgamesh is DEAD AND GONE. There's no reason for her to push herself!! Granted, that's assuming this message is just weird spam and not actually from him.......

So she's quiet for a while as she thinks it over. The matter should be settled, but if he really is around, not saying anything to Shirou might end up putting him in danger. CAN'T HAVE THAT NOW.]

... That person—Servant, I mean. I recognize him from before.

You know him? How? When did you meet? Did he hurt you? [Sakura knows some unknown Servant. Shirou's radar is going off and he's shooting fifty questions.]

[Now to debate on how much to actually tell him...]

Do you remember that time when I said there was a handsome foreigner walking around my house? It was him. I didn't realize he was a Servant at the time. [Technically she isn't lying or anything... But it seems evident that there's more to it than just that, even if she isn't saying so.]

So you met him back then. It happened a while ago, but I remember.

Was he really that handsome? [Unsure man. Shirou's curious because he's never met Gilgamesh himself.]

[nodding] He looked like he could've been a model, or someone in a movie even. [a beat] But I like you better, Senpai, much, much better!

[Somehow that's important to say?!?!]

I'm happy you're saying that because I like you too Sakura. [Not even gonna comment on Gilgamesh because fuck that.]

Well, of course. It's only natural since I love you too, Senpai. [Shirou could probably come rolling out of the garbage and she'd still think he looks better than Gil... Oh but if he's done bringing it up SCORE SHE DOESN'T HAVE TO SAY HOW SHE ATE THE GUY!!]

[Shirou pulls Sakura into a hug awkwardly and then kisses her on the lips. Sakura knows how he feels towards this!! Gilgamesh isn't nearly as important tbh.]

[Shirou and his goddamn fucking awkward hugs I swear. But it takes Sakura by surprise, in a good way of course, and she easily kisses back, soft and sweet as she tries not to break it by smiling too much. By the time she pulls back, she's trying not to giggle. She's just so happy.]

I'm really glad you're her, Senpai.

I'm glad too. I miss you, Sakura.

[Shirou's just going to kiss Sakura back because apparently this is a better answer?????? He's super happy too...smh. These two need to get a room.]

[Good thing that they're at their apartment tbh BUT NO I AM HERE TO PREVENT THAT FATE. Her cheeks are hella flushed and she's reluctant to even pull away, but they do have dinner to eat.]

I'm going to miss you so much when you go. But since you're still here, let's have a good dinner together.

That's not a bad idea. [Shirou has some concerns like...he hopes Sakura isn't pushing herself for his sake. He'll feel so bad.]

Let's eat something light for dinner.

[Aw come on Shirou, don't worry, she's not pushing herself unless she's collapsing on the ground right after taking a bath!! Until that point it's totally healthy and normal effort, totally...]

You're in luck, Senpai. I was just finishing up miso soup for dinner.

[SAKURA NO!! but ok he'll try not to worry so much granted this is Shirou we're talking about smh. Worries over Sakura anyways]

Your miso soup is the best. I think you've perfected it so it should be great.

[He's so excited over soup....someone please help him.]

[Too bad Shirou HIS CHANCE TO WORRY ABOUT HER IS COMING TO AN END!! Looks at that new thread in her inbox...]

Hehe, I hope it lives up to your expectations then. I think you're still better than me when it comes to Japanese cuisine, but maybe I've finally surpassed you.

It's not "maybe". You have surpassed me. [Because he gave up the kitchen for Sakura, but it's a small price to pay if she's happy...]

I think you might just be biased, Senpai. [Because tbh she's always biased in his favor... Oops.] But we'll just have to taste and see.

I'm not biased. [Rude.]

I already know you're better than me. [Does he sound mad? He's mad yfw. It's like he got defeated without having a chance to fight back. There's no battle to be won here.]

Senpai... [Shirou........ If you get mad, she's gonna feel bad about it!! She looks down, looking a little apologetic.] Do you miss cooking?

I can cook whenever I want to at Tohsaka's place. It's not the same without you there helping me do it. [Mostly because Rin doesn't have a healthy diet and he can't cook like crazy.]

You're right. I really miss cooking with you, too. [a beat] When you can come back home for good then, we should cook together. Six months is too long to have the kitchen all to myself.

[Besides, it was a deal they made when they literally thought she'd be dying in a day... In practice, it's a bit selfish on her part WHOOPS.]

It's a deal. I'll make you something good since we'll be helping each other cook.

What should we make?

Whatever you want is fine with me. [Here it comes the I'M GOOD IF YOU'RE GOOD shit with them.] Is there anything you haven't made in a while that you want to make?
