I'll leave a link to the podfic version at the end of the chapter for everyone who prefers listening to it.
Also, sorry for the long break, life was stressful in more ways than one BUT on the plus side I have an appointment for Top surgery now 🥳
---------------------
Semi lowered his guitar and put it aside as the messages in the group hat got less frequent again. He had been composing but it felt as though he lacked the inspiration to really get anywhere at the moment.
His steps carried him automatically to the kitchen as the scent of food reached him. It caused a small smile to spread on his face that only brightened when he saw <i>him<i>.
Shirabu would never admit it but he could be super domestic and caring, and it made Semi's heart flutter.
"Looks good," he commented as he stepped closer.
Shirabu's head snapped up in surprise.
"Oh, I'm thanks
"I was about to get you, dinner is almost finished."
He glanced at the food again.
"How was composing? Any new ideas for a song?"
"Oh well, I got a bit stuck."
He scratched the back of his neck, annoyed at his own shortcomings.
"So I thought I would come back here for my inspiration. My muse if you will."
He winked at the smaller, who just rolled his eyes in response but Semi could have sworn his cheeks turned a few shades darker.
"I do have one thing I'd like to ask you though..."
"Sure, what is it?"
He still seemed too constructed to interpret much into Semi's hesitation, making him only more curious as to how he would react.
"If I'd die... What would you do?".
"Bring you back to life of course," he answered without hesitation. "What am I doing this shit for otherwise?"
He vaguely motioned for where he had placed his work attire in the hallway.
Semi laughed but it quickly faded as the room fell silent again and he contemplated if he should push it further.
Shirabu observed him with a frown, visibly unsure what to make of this.
"But what if you can't?" the musician close to whispered before straightening his back and proceeding more determined. "What if you have no power over it? If you're maybe not even there when..." he left his sentence unfinished, hanging in the air between them.
"Eita, is there something I should know?" His voice had gotten the worried edge Semi was all too familiar with. "Because I swear to the Gods if you–"
"No, that's not it," he quickly assured him. "I'm sorry if I worried you. I was just thinking."
Shirabu's frown remained the same as he walked up to him now, cupped his cheeks, and searched his eyes for an answer.
"About what?"
"Huh?" Semi gave him a confused look, cocking his head to the side slightly.
"What were you thinking about that got you to that?" The other clarified.
His gaze was from a piercing intensity yet filled with such care and compassion that it melted Semi's heart.
"Well, to be honest, it was suggested by the group chat—"
Shirabu's eyes narrowed and his grip tightened a little until it looked silly how his cheeks were squished together.
"— it got me thinking. That's why I asked."
The doctor in training sighed and let his hands fall down.
"Fine then. You got your answer."
"Sure, Dr. Frankenstein."
He laughed while Shirabu threw a murderous gaze at him. Gods, one day his inability to shut up would be the death of him.
