Catsushi:A Collection of Stories

Catsushi and The Siblings

Pairing: Naomi and Atsushi, platonic; I Tanizaki and Atsushi, platonic; kind of Taniatsu, romantic

_______________________________________-

Safe to say, Naomi was one of the happiest out of the detectives when she came known to the fact that Atsushi could turn into a cat. She was already very into animals, and thankfully enough, Catsushi was a very furry cute thing.

Sure, she got jealous every now and then when Tanizaki seemed a little too interested in Catsushi. But could she really blame him, not at all! Not that she didn't pout and blame him, but that's besides the point.

Naomi loved cute things. And Catsushi was very cute.

On the other hand, there was Jyuunichiro. Who was, by far, the more responsible one. And if Catsushi was ever left under his care, he would probably be the one to actually take care of him.

It was a pretty average day for Junichiro. Most of the other members were either on a mission or were returning today. Well, that was, other than atsushi who had surprisingly taken a leave. He was rather concerned as Atsushi was never one to take leaves unless necessary.

As he finished some reports, his phone began ringing.

"Hello?"

"Hello, Tanizaki-Kun?"

"Kyouka?" Why was she calling him?

"I just wanted to inform you that the mission Yosano-san and I are on has extended and we'll probably take another day or so to return"

"Oh I see, and...?"

"And atsushi is sick so I need you to take care of him."

"W-what?-"

"Thanks, bye"

...

Good heavens, he was not expecting to take care of a sick cat today. He sighed, quickly finishing up the rest of his paperwork before heading to the dorms.

Once he reached his room, he knocked on the room. He heard clear shuffling and stumbling before the door was lazily opened by Atsushi. Well, a very sick Atsushi at least. His face was flushed, his mouth was drooped, his nose looked clearly stuffy and red with his eyes lidded, and skin paler than ever.

"A-Ah, Tanizaki-" He spoke, clinging on to the door for support.

"Atsushi! Are you okay?"

"Yeah I-I'm fine, no big de-" Before Atsushi could continue, his eyes closed, exhaustion taking over him as he fell forward. Tanizaki quickly grabbing him, arms wrapped securely under his armpits and hugging his back, bringing the almost falling Atsushi close to himself, letting Atsushi's face bury in his chest.

"You sly little cat, you're not okay at all" Tanizaki whispered in his ears though he highly doubted he was heard by Atsushi. With enough struggle, he brought both him and Atsushi inside the apartment dorm without waking up the sleeping Atsushi in his arms.

As he made his way to the futon, he felt Atsushi shuffling a bit in his arms, only relaxing when his side met the soft futon. Tanizaki sighed, wiping off a bead off sweat trailing down his forehead. He looked down to Atsushi. Hès never really seen Atsushi look so...sick. Hés always lively, and his ability really just prevents any illness whatsoever. But I guess even he can get sick.

Tanizaki kneels down, knees close to his chest, waiting to see for any discomfort on Atsushi's face. Once he's clear of doubt, he softly brushes of some of the hair sticking to Atsushi's forehead, massaging through his head in soothing motions.
