Shinju sighed and walked up the stairs towards her son's room. "Jesus… nearly one in the afternoon…"

She opened his door and saw Sugawara's back first. Then Daichi's head and realized they hadn't woken up. They'd slept in, tangled up next to each other.

Usually Suga was buried into the stuffed animals and Daichi would be laying next to him, a hand on his waist or back. On the rare occasion she'd find Sugawara huddled against Daichi's back or even rarer, being spooned. She was sure it happened more than she found out about but it was still adorable.

Too bad she had to wake them up.

Shinju got closer to the bed and paused. "Linked pinkies? Aw. Something must have happened." She shook Daichi's shoulder lightly.

"Mm…"

"I need you to wake up Suga. We got the papers in."

"Mkay." Daichi yawned. "Just a sec…"

"Ah. Don't go back to sleep."

"I'm not." He yawned again. "I got it."

"Alright. I'll give you two like thirty minutes so you can change and stuff."

"Thanks." Daichi sighed. After his mother left he laughed. "You can open your eyes now."

Suga opened one eye and grinned. "Ah it works."

"Pfft." Daichi turned and kissed his forehead. "No bad dream?"

"Nope. Not this time." Sugawara sat up and plopped back down on Daichi's waist. "Ooooh you're warm."

"Thanks." Daichi wheezed. After a bit he laughed and patted Suga's back. "Sweetheart I know you just LOVE laying on top of me but my mom does have paperwork I'm guessing from the hospital."

"I really don't want to know what that stuff was that my mom tried to kill me with."

"Yes but she also can't hurt you now."

"I know…" Sugawara paused. "You said I had two seizures, right?"

"Yeah. How'd that feel?"

"Fuzzy and it kinda hurt. I couldn't hear you guys but I could feel you. And I felt your hands on my shoulders and back and I tried to snap out of it." He sighed. "It was scary. I probably scared you guys too…"

"I mean yeah. I was nervous and everything. Nishinoya didn't seem to be too nervous. He was trying to tell us to lay you down. Which is weird."

"Yeah." Sugawara turned and laid his body over Daichi's. "It is weird."

"I'll try my best to get Asahi to go to the park to see if he's there again. Then he could bring him here or get his number or something."

"I dunno. He seems more nervous around him than- hold up."

"What's wrong?"

"Okay we need to just get them alone. They definitely need to talk to each other."

"Why?"

"Cause I wanna see what happens. Duh."

"Suga." Daichi warned.

"I promise you that I won't try anything."

"Mhmm. Sure." Daichi sat up and held him, smiling. "You're adorable."

"Aw." Suga smiled. "I love you."

Daichi blushed. Honestly why was this making him flustered. They had settled that they loved each other but the smaller male always managed to take the breath out of him. "I love you too."

"Aw you're flustered."

"I am not!"

"How cute." Sugawara smiled, knowing he was teasing Daichi. He knew what he was doing.

Daichi sighed and kissed Sugawara, catching him off guard. For a moment they stayed like that and Daichi pulled away. Sugawara's cheeks were such a bright red Daichi couldn't help but laugh at. "Now look who's flustered."

Sugawara smiled and leaned back, pulling Daichi down. He leaned up and pressed his lips to Daichi's. "Just a few minutes?"

"Alright." For a few moments they kept giving each other soft kisses, smiling and nervously holding each other. Kisses were normal of course but consistent kisses like this made them nervous if the light, normal kisses hadn't started before.

The whole thing in the kitchen was just playful but now they were in a room away from everyone else and there was a new connection there. They were still young and didn't want to risk any touches or anything that would lead to something that could lead to something… mature. Sugawara only joked about it. Never would he try that when he was recovering.

"Alright... We've got to change and stuff. Come on."

"One more."

Daichi chuckled and pecked his lips before getting up. He patted Sugawara's shoulder and he sighed. One more didn't mean a peck. Daichi knew that.

"Dai… come on."

"What is it?"

Sugawara just rolled off of the bed and grabbed his clothes. "That was a jerk move."

Daichi laughed and pulled on his shirt. He waited until he got the clear from Suga to turn around. When he did he actually kissed him and then walked downstairs.

Oh boy how the tables had turned. He was flustered.

"She put WHAT in my cup?!"

Shinju sighed. "I know. It's strange."

"Freaking rat poison…" Sugawara put his head down. "Did she not know it was going to make me have seizures? With my weight too… she really did try to kill me."

Daichi patted his back. "I think tha-" The doorbell rang and everyone froze. "Oh wait… I called Asahi. The Nishinoya thing. Right."

He rushed off and both his mother and boyfriend glared at him. What the hell was wrong with him?

"Got him! He did bring Nishinoya!"

"Yo." Nishinoya said, raising his hand. Sugawara waved, smiling. "What exactly did I do?"

"You're not in trouble. I just want to know how you knew to lay me down when I was having a seizure?"

"Hey!" Nishinoya turned around and glared at Asahi. "You didn't say this would be about the seizure thing!"

"A-ah I didn't think it was bad you knew about that!" Asahi said quickly.

Nishinoya sighed. "I don't usually talk about that…"

"Why not?" Suga questioned.

"I just don't." Nishinoya stated firmly, crossing his arms. "It's stupid anyways."

"Not really but okay."

"Hmph." He held his arms tighter against his body. A defensive stance. "Besides it was weeks ago. That lady helped out."

"Okay. But just so you know, I don't judge."

"He doesn't." Daichi stated. Asahi nodded.

"I don't care. I'm not telling you."

"Mkay." Sugawara reached over and grabbed a packet of gummies out of Daichi's pocket.

"You're letting him steal your stuff?"

Daichi glanced back at Suga and saw him happily chewing on his gummies. "What do you mean? That's his."

"Why's it in your pocket?"

"He doesn't like carrying them around when he has other things to carry."

"Speaking of which." Suga got up and headed to the cabinets. "Time for my medicine."
