[The nickname kitsy comes from the words Kit-Kat as y/n is a human cat and does sometimes eat a lot of chocolate]

Ego sighed for the 90th time today, a tight pair of arms were latched onto his waist as a head was buried into his shoulder. "I promise you, [l/n]-Chan/San, I'll bring back Ego-San before 8." Anri tried convincing them for the 19th time,

"8's too long…"
"Quit acting like a cat, kitsy, I'm not your property. And if I want to go out and observe future strikers I can." The grip around his waist tightened before releasing slowly. He couldn't tell if his Husband/Wife was taking in his scent but the way the grip around him relaxed could easily explain. "Fine..If you bring him back late, it won't look pretty…" [y/n] let go and stood straight staring down at Anri.

Ego left a light kiss on their neck before grabbing his keys, and heading towards the door. "C'mon Anri-chan, before they change their mind..Bye kitsy, I love you." Those exact words unfroze [y/n]'s blank stare as they quickly responded with; "Love you too, my Egoistic love."

<3

"I didn't know you had a [gender]friend." Anri slightly questioned, as she glanced in his direction. "Because you don't need to know, my life is strictly professional." He replied, ignoring the fact she didn't pick up on the matching jewelry (you can pick the pair of what they match on idrc) they both wore.

'Not when it's around them.' She wanted to quip back, but instead stayed quiet.
The boy they were recommended to see play was an average height if not taller and had royal blue hair. "What's his name?" Ego muttered as he analyzed the midfielders movement. His eyes were glued to the field as he noticed his way of playing. He has the potential..Wait..why is he passing? Ego watched in dismay as the boy passed to his teammate and missed completely.

"Isagi Yoichi, is he going to join our program?"

He had to admit, his kitsy had a good eye when it came to picking players early in the morning.  Just like the red haired boy they picked together, ' something about his arua reminds me of a cheetah in retirement..We can fix that.' were their words at 5am when they were scrolling through SoccerTube. Aka YouTube on sports mode. "Yeah, he'll join."

The round ended with people cheering on an infamous boy named Kira. He was spouting about winning with his team and nonsense Ego wouldn't dare let [y/n] say. "Alright I'm done picking from this team, let's go."

The two got up and left without a soul noticing them. Each wrote their letters to the person they chose and finalized the order. Ego only chose 1 person while Anri did the other "299", which might seem unfair but that was what he saw her as. An errand girl who did the leftovers he didn't want to.

“Jinni! Your back!" Y/n cheered, running and practically jumping on him. "Are you my child or partner? Quit being dramatic, I was only gone for 3 hours.." He mused, letting his love cling to him. "That's like 10,800 seconds~ too many too long.." they whined earning a side eye from ego.

"You counted?" Y/n rolled their eyes as if it was common sense to do something like that. "That's not the point, did you pick him?" Despite the obvious topic change, he went along with it anyway. "Mhm, he has potential to grow, he just needs a stronger environment."

"Like Blue Lock? Oh, wait! I have something for you!" Y/n let go, running to their shared bedroom as ego decided to set his stuff finally down and patiently rest on the couch. Y/n appeared back with something behind their back walking slowly up, "close your eyes, actually no just hand me your glasses." Ego rolled his eyes but did as instructed,

(if you don't wear glasses ignore this part)

To him, y/n was just as blind as he was making the urge to say something back even stronger. Or 'politely'  ask how many fingers he was holding up the next time they took theirs off.

(Alright your good now)

He could feel something going around his neck before a 'snap!' could be heard with a little bit of shuffling in the background. "There! Here's your glasses back." Looking down, a bright looking soccer ball rested on a dark blue lanyard. "You can wear it when you go to work!"

It wasn't as noticeable, but a genuine smile was on Ego's face as he noticed every aspect of it. "Thank you kitsy, I truly love it." Y/n's eyes shone brightly as they hugged him from the neck, "your welcome! I'm glad you love it." It was hard to take them seriously as Ego kept hearing their tail swing in the air at an ungodly speed. So instead, a low chuckle erupted from his mouth as he tried not to look behind you as much. “What are you laughing- oh.” y/n grabbed their tail which still didn’t stop swinging as the blushing mess only made it swing faster.

Now he was laughing even harder as your struggles went to waste with your tail having its own mind. “Quit laughing! At Least try to help!” The noises calmed down as he got up and headed towards the kitchen grabbing a candle. “Smell this,” he held a (favorite scent) candle towards your nose. “Woah, that does smell good, how’d you know my favorite?”

“That's what our room smells like 9/10 times of the day.” Ego slightly complained, the smell itself didn’t bother him, just the constant of it. “What about (second favorite)?” You recommend making ego pale lighter than he already was. 
“No, no i'm fine with (first favorite).”
“Pfft- alright.” 

(Sorry about the mix of 3rd and 2nd person if you don't mind I'll keep it like that cuz I can't figure out where it started.)
