THE NEXT MORNING

"Chuu-ya~! Wake up!" Dazai sung like a morning bird that woke everyone up with it's extremely annoying chirps. "We have a very long day ahead of us, wakey-wakey!"

Chuuya groaned, shaking his head into his pillow irritated. He's been being pestered by the brunette like this for 15 minutes. "Let me sleep, damnit! It's too early for this shit!"

Dazai chuckled, taking a seat down beside him on the bed. "Come on, chibi. Don't you want to eat? Your mom made food, and she's waiting for you to go eat downstairs."

Chuuya pouted, sitting up. He yawned and silently stared at Dazai's soft lips. He really wanted a morning kiss, but he was too shy to ask for one. "What food did she make?"

Dazai smiled at how cute Chuuya looked. With his soft ginger locks extremely messy, in his home pajamas, and a bright smile. He was so beautiful. "She said she made your favorite."

Chuuya jumped out of bed, startling Dazai. He immediately ran to the bathroom and got down to business. Dazai chuckled at how quick the ginger was to get ready.

The brunette walked into the hallway and rested his back against the wall. He sighed to himself in content. He hasn't felt this at peace in awhile. Maybe not in years. There was always something bothering him, always keeping him from—

"My son is so handsome, isn't he?" Kouyou's voice randomly spoke, jumpscaring the fuck out of Dazai.

"Wha- Is that a security camera?" Dazai squinted at the tiny camera that the voice was coming from.

"Yes, Dazai," Kouyou answered nonchalantly. "I have security cameras planted almost everywhere in the house, so I can keep an eye on thieves."

"Oh... Well, Chuuya is very handsome, but, you didn't hear anything from last night, did you?" Dazai nervously asked, recalling the night from before. "Or did you not check?"

"No, I didn't, why?" Kouyou asked in a suspicious tone. "You two weren't doing anything funny in my house with each other, were you?"

"What, of course not!" Dazai answered immediately, obviously a lie. "I do not condone in such inappropriate activities!"

"Mhm... You better not condone in them. If I look back in those security cameras and I find something I don't like, you're both in for it. Now come downstairs. I made you breakfast."

"Yes ma'am," Dazai answered in obedience, almost a little intimidated by the woman.

He was about to walk downstairs but then he felt a certain ginger's hand softly pull on his sleeve, stopping him from walking.

"Good morning," Chuuya shyly said to Dazai. His hand was clutching Dazai's sleeve.

Dazai's eyebrows raised. It was a little late to say that, but hey, it was still cute. "Good morning, baby. Did you sleep well?"

Chuuya blushed at the petname. He looked away to a wall, avoiding Dazai's gaze at all costs. He was too nervous to look him in the eye. He wanted to slap himself for not keeping his tough facade.

"My sleep would've been better if you didn't pester me to get up, dumbass, but it was good, yours...?" Chuuya mumbled.

"My sleep was good too, chibi," Dazai answered.

Very good, actually.

Normally, Dazai would have a hard time sleeping, but when he laid down next to Chuuya, all those troubles would simply vanish. He could sleep in peace.

"Oh. That's good."

The two boyfriends then headed downstairs in a comfortable silence. Once they got to the dining room, they sat down at the table, waiting for Kouyou to come and serve their breakfast. The strong aroma of rice, fish, and grilled chicken filled their nostrils.
