A Mentor's Hand (文豪ストレイドッグス)

(From here the story just kind of switches between both characters and uses different viewpoints :)

Chuuya took Kiyo to his house, where she would probably be staying for awhile. It wasn't incredibly fancy, by no means, but it had two bedrooms, a bathroom, an office, kitchen and a dining/living room.

The house wasn't decorated with much except for a glass wine shelf, filled with rather expensive wines.

While Kiyo was giving herself a tour, Chuuya looked disdainfully at the empty bedroom. It was truly empty. The only person who ever stayed at chuuya's house was... Dazai. {A/N I'll leave that there...}

"Oi, brat!" Chuuya called. It took Kiyo a moment to realize that he was calling her.

"Yes, Chuuya-san?" Kiyo said, coming through the house. "I think your sleeping on the couch tonight." He gestured at the empty room. Kiyo had no problem with that.
She didn't even have a problem with the fact that there were no extra blankets in the house, because it was better than sleeping outside.

However, Chuuya clearly had a problem with Kiyo having no blankets because sometime in the night, he had draped his coat over her. For a moment he simply stared at her, not quite sure what to think.
After finishing paperwork, Chuuya went to bed {A/N...annnd dreamt of Dazai}.

The next morning, around 5am, Chuuya woke Kiyo for her first mission, which was to guard an important building where a secret meeting was being held. She didn't say anything about the coat, yet her face turned red when she returned it to him. They left at 5:30, a strange sense of duty overtaking Kiyo. This was, after all, her first mission.

Next chapter in two days :)
