——————————————————

Masaru carefully and cautiously closed the door to his bedroom, mindful not to wake Mitsuki who was snoring her head off as she lay on her back, catching flys. He smiled as he crept down the hall and down the stairs.

As he entered the kitchen he noticed someone sitting on the veranda stairs outside, the sensor light no longer on meaning they must have been out there for a while without any movements.

Tracking a little closer to the door he recognised the white puffer jacket thrown over their shoulders, wearing a white beanie with baby blue Christmas trees decorating around, a matching coloured pom-pom on the top.

Entering the kitchen he grabbed one of the many mugs in the cupboard. He opened the pantry and retrieved the hot chocolate mix from inside, as well as the milk from the fridge.

He heated up the milk on the stove, while he had chocolate melting in the microwave. Finishing the milk and the chocolate he poured the two into the mug, adding the hot chocolate mixture too and a small teaspoon of sugar.

As he was grabbing the marshmallows he reached a halt: 'what if he doesn't like marshmallows?' he asked himself...'but if I don't have them on me, and it turns out he does I'll mess up.'

Letting in light breaths he calmed himself: 'now is no time to be overthinking anything.' grabbing two from the packet he placed them on the bench as he retrieved his coat, hat and gloves.

Holding the mug in one hand, he had the marshmallows in the other. Approaching the sliding door he opened it. The cool breeze hit his face unexpectedly, making him instantly start to feel numb.

As he expected, Shoto looked up from where he was sitting. However, Masaru was not expecting to see tears streaming down his saddened face.

They were there quickly as they were gone, removing them with the sleeve of his puffer jacket, shifting as he moved to the left a bit to allow Masaru to sit down.

Masaru took his seat holding the mug out for Shoto, smiling as the boy seemed unsure if the drink was for him or not, but as the older man held it out closer to him, he took the sign that he was offering it to him.

Nodding his head he took the drink in both his hands, grasping his fingers around the warm glass as his fingers stun by the dramatic change in temperature.
