 Nagito reached out until something soft hit his fingers. Without thinking, he gripped it and pulled it close to him.

The blanket was warm, almost unnaturally so. He buried his face in his pillow, then it hit him why it had been so warm.

His bare skin was wrapped in the blankets and quickly, the fluffy pirate pushed himself up and looked around.

When had he... Fallen asleep? He was back in the room, fully nude, but he didn't recall anything happening last night.

Perhaps Kamukura had properly undressed him?

His suspicions were confirmed when his eyes landed on a folded pile of clothes neatly on the ground beside him; if anything happened, neither of them would have cared about folding clothes like that.

Although thinking of Kamukura, he moved his gaze beside him, where the Pirate King slept soundly, his beautiful features highlighted by the light of the day.

His long black hair covered the mattress like a winding, dark maze, and Komaeda was careful not to lean on any of it as he moved close, giving a small shake.

"Already awake, your chain is loud," Izuru's lazy mutter made it sound like that was likely a lie, but not worth calling out. It was almost kinda cute, hearing his sleepy voice.

"What happened last night?"

The dark man released a sigh and pulled himself to a sit. As the blankets fell off him, Nagito was quick to notice he had taken his own clothes off as well.

That was more expected though, who wanted to sleep in the sort of long jacket the Pirate King wore?

"You fell asleep on the horse," He rolled his shoulders, red eyes dulled and spaced off.

Yesterday couldn't have been easy for him either, the man appeared like he was on an entirely different world than Komaeda at that moment. Izuru stared into nothing before he gave a yawn, exposing his sharp fangs to the light.

When he was satisfied with being awake, the Pirate King turned back to continue.

"I had to carry you inside, and take off your clothes. Unsuitable for sleeping."

"Right..." It was coming back to Komaeda again. He had been in a daze, being laid down into the bed felt more like a distant dream. But then he recalled something he dearly hoped was a dream.

Nagito quickly met his eyes, only to look away just as fast, "That question I asked you before I passed out, I'm sorry. I wasn't thinking, we don't know each other like that yet, who even knows if you want to be with someone like me? I can't even shoot a gun and-"

"The rambling is new," Kamukura cocked his head curiously, allowing his hair to swiftly brush down his shoulders. "But it's useless."

Without warning, the Pirate King had leaned close, pressing him back against the wall as he allowed himself to sit atop Komaeda's lap.

He could feel his heart racing as he looked up to Kamukura, and the intense heat of them being so close.

With a gentle touch, Nagito's heart leapt as a long nail ran down his cheek, then the Pirate King pulled his face up to meet his eyes.

"That was a question you had no right to fall asleep with after asking," His ruby irises shimmered, nearly catching Nagito in a trace. His train of thought had crashed and burned the moment he was held down, there was nothing he knew of to say in response.
