Solar Eclipse of the Heart

His number

After that incident that happened over a week ago, Atsushi was thinking about Akutagawa, again. It was the 4th time that day that he thought about him. He just couldn't stop thinking about him, and that made him really clumsy. Even the ADA noticed Atsushi's clumsiness.

-EARTH TO ATSUSHI?? ARE YOU THERE?? Dazai shouted at the small guy, who now, got startled by it.

-Huh? What happened? Atsushi asked, before realizing that everyone was looking at them.

-You zoned out for some time. I tried calling you multiple times but you weren't responding. Are you alright? Dazai asked, slightly worried about Atsushi.

-Oh...yeah, I'm alright, don't worry ! Atsushi answered, somehow embarrassed by his thoughts even though nobody could read them.

That day, Atsushi wanted to hang out with Akutagawa and watch a film at his house. He missed his cooking and wanted to learn how to cook himself so he wouldn't have to depend on junk food.

But he first had to get his number, and the one who he could call and ask was Chuuya.

*I guess I don't have another option.* He thought, reaching for his phone to call Chuuya.

Calling Chuuya ...

-Hii Chuuya. Atsushi greeted him.

-Well hello Atsushi, why'd you call me? Chuuya was confused, Atsushi never really called him.

-Well, this may sound absurd but, can you text me Akutagawa's number? Atsushi asked, feeling embarrassed.

-You finally realized your feelings and decided to take him on a date? Chuuya laughed.

-CHUUYAA. Atsushi was even more embarrassed now. No, I just wanted to have a sleepover with him. I also want to learn how to cook. His cooking is amazing. Atsushi explained, not feeling embarrassed anymore.

-Okay, i will send it to you right now. Replied Chuuya.

-Thank you, byee. Atsushi hung up.

Chuuya

(203)-456-7890

This is his number

Thanks Chuuya

I'll text you tomorrow

Okay

;)))

*Okay, now that I got his number, I can text him to come over. I hope he will accept*

(203)-456-7890

Hii, this is Atsushii

I just wanted to ask you to come over

because i wanted to have a sleepover

with you, and if you can teach me

how to cook, pleasee. ;))?

I didn't expect you, out of all

people, to text me but sure.

When should I come?

If you want, you can drop by after

you're done with your work.

I'll be home at 5pm.

Also, can you bring the ingredients?

I don't really know what to buy.

Alright, i will buy everything necessary

for dinner. We'll make Oyakodon.

Okayy, see you ;)).

As he was texting Akutagawa, he didn't notice the tall figure standing behind him. Once he turned to leave, he bumped into Dazai.

-You're seeing him tonight?! He almost yelled out.

-SHSHSHSH! said Atsushi, covering the other's mouth. Yeah, but we're just having a little sleepover. Atsushi replied, removing his hand from Dazai's mouth.

-Do you like him~? Chuuya and I bet on you guys every time. He always wins, it's not fair. Dazai said, pouting.

-Whatever. I'm going home, I finished all my work. Atsushi replied, grabbing his jacket and rushing home.

Half an hour later, he got home.It was 4 pm. He decided to shower as well as change into something casual. He picked out a pair of sweatpants and a hoodie. While he was waiting for Akutagawa, he cleaned the kitchen a bit.

When he finished, it was only 4:30pm so he just sat on the sofa watching Youtube.

At 5pm the doorbell rang. Atsushi got up to open the door. He took the keys and opened the door. At the door was Akutagawa, holding two full bags.

He was wearing a pair of loose blue jeans followed by a black turtleneck sweater and a pair of white sneakers. He also had a black backpack.

-Hii, you can enter. Atsushi moved away from the door so Akutagawa could enter. Want me to help you? Those look heavy. He pointed at the groceries bag.

-Hello, no don't worry, they aren't heavy at all. Akutagawa replied. He went straight to the kitchen to drop the bags on the counter and then went back to the entrance to take his shoes, his backpack and his coat off.

They both went to the kitchen and Akutagawa started explaining everything to Atsushi. How to boil, how to fry and how to bake. He then showed him how to cut the vegetables and then the meat.

For this recipe they needed tender pieces of chicken, onions, and the eggs are simmered in an umami-rich sauce and then poured over a bowl of fluffy steamed rice.

In the end, they got 2 nice bowls of oyakodon in less than 40 minutes. Atsushi was the first to taste it. He took a spoon and it tasted delicious. They both sat down to eat. There was a comforting silence.

After they both finished, Atsushi cleaned the dishes as Akutagawa gathered the table. Finally after they finished everything, Atsushi suggested that they each take a shower and then watch a film.

Akutagawa agreed and offered that he showers first. He went to take his backpack that he left at the front door. Atsushi then showed him where the bathroom was and waited for him to be done showering so he could shower next.

After Akutagawa got out of the shower, Atsushi followed and finished showering in about 5 minutes.

They settled on the couch, with a bowl of chips Atsushi had in one of his drawers, ready to watch a film. It was Atsushi's turn to choose the movie. He chose a romantic film, but he didn't know that yet...
