Chuuya rolled in bed, blinking at the sunlight streaming through the window. Today was the first official day of summer break, and the house was unusually quiet. He could hear the faint chirping of birds outside and the soft rustling of leaves in the morning breeze. Sitting up, he stretched his arms and yawned, glancing at the clock. It was already past nine. He needed to get up.

Slipping out of bed, Chuuya padded down the hallway and paused outside Dazai's room. The door was slightly ajar, and he could see his stepbrother sprawled out on the bed, still asleep. A small smile tugged at Chuuya's lips. Dazai looked so peaceful when he was asleep, a stark contrast to his usual mischievous and energetic self.

"Hey, lazybones," Chuuya called softly, pushing the door open a bit more. "It's morning. Get up already."

Dazai groaned, burying his face deeper into the pillow. "Five more minutes," he mumbled, his voice muffled.

Chuuya shook his head with a chuckle. "Come on, it's summer break. We should be out enjoying the day, not wasting it in bed."

With a dramatic sigh, Dazai finally lifted his head, his hair a tousled mess. "Fine, fine. I'm up." He sat up slowly, stretching and rubbing his eyes. "What is the plan for today, then?"

Chuuya shrugged, leaning against the doorframe. "I don't know. I thought we could just hang out, maybe go to the park or something."

Dazai's eyes lit up at that. "The park sounds good. Let's have a picnic!"

 Half an hour later, they were in the kitchen, putting together sandwiches and packing snacks into a basket. Chuuya found a checkered blanket in the closet, and Dazai grabbed a couple of cold drinks from the fridge. They chatted casually as they worked, discussing everything and nothing.

"Did you talk to Atsushi last night?" Chuuya asked, glancing at Dazai as he packed the last of the sandwiches.

Dazai's expression softened at the mention of his boyfriend. "Yeah, we talked for a bit. He is excited for his trip with his family." He paused, then added. "What about you? Did you call Akutagawa?"

Chuuya nodded, a fond smile playing on his lips. "Yes, he is busy with his internship but said he misses me already."

A brief silence fell between them, each lost in thoughts of their respective partners. Chuuya couldn't help but feel a slight twinge of jealousy. He shook his head, pushing the feeling away. This was not the time for that.

"Ready to go?" Dazai's voice broke through his thoughts.

"Yeah, let's head out," Chuuya replied, grabbing the picnic basket.

The park was a short walk from their house, and the day was perfect for an outing. The sky was a clear blue, and a gentle breeze kept the heat at bay. They found a shady spot under a large oak tree and spread out the blanket, setting down with their food.
