Tohma was up a short while later, despite having gone to sleep only a short while before. He blinked, trying to focous bleary teal eyes as he fixed a pot of coffee. As the coffee was dripping, he contemplated making breakfast. Though he usually didn't eat in the morning, he was sure Shuichi would be. Glancing over at the clock, he saw that it was almost 4:00 am. 'I'll have to start getting ready for work soon' Tohma thought to himself, before looking over to the coffe pot, seeing that it was done dripping. Puoring a coup, Tohma walked over to the table, covering his mouth with a slim hand as he let out a yawn. Sitting down at the table Tohma took a sip, feeling the hot liquid burn down his throat. He set the cup down, letting out another yawn, placing his elbow on the table, and resting his head against his hand. He let out another yawn as he felt his eyelids slowly closing as sleep stole over him. He awoke, startled, what felt like only a few minutes later as he felt somone shaking his shoulder. He sat up quckly, his head colliding painfully with the person leaning over him. His eyes watering, tohma blinked, clearing them as he glanced over to see Shuichi rubbing his chin, tears in his eyes.
"Are you alright Shindou-san?" Tohma asked him, standing up.
"I'm fine." Shuichi said, wiping his eyes with the back of his hand.
"Did you need something?" Tohma asked him.
"We're going to be late for work, Seguchi-san" He said, glancing at the clock. Tohma followed his gaze, seeing that it was after 11:30. He frowned slightly, how had he managed to sleep for so long? He looked over to the other when he heard the singers stomach growl.
"Would you like breakfast, Shindou-san?" He asked him with a small smile. The young man looked at him in surprise.
"But won't we be late?" he asked him. He didn't even want to think about what K would do to him if he was late again.
"I'm already late, I think they can survive without me for a bit longer." Tohma said "And if your worrying about K-san, you don't have to, he won't do anything since you were with me."
Walking over to the fridge, he opend it, looking at the sparse offerings that his fridge had to offer. "Would eggs be alright with you?" He asked, looking over his shoulder at the young man behind him. Getting a nod of agreement, he turned back to the fridge, grabbing the eggs. Grabbing a bowl, he quickly craked a few eggs into it, before whisking them, adding some salt and pepper, as well as a bit of milk. grapping a small pan out of the cabinet, he placed it on the stove, waiting for it to heat up, before quickly making a plate of scrambled eggs for both himself and Shuichi, making sure to give the majority of the eggs to the other. When they were both seated at the table, their plates in front of them, Tohma watched as Shuichi pushed the eggs around with is fork, seemingly lost in thought as he chewed on his bottom lip.
"Is there something the matter, Shindou-san?" Tohma asked him after watching him for a short while, seeing the other jump slightly, his eyes quickly meeting Tohma's.
"Its nothing." Shuichi said quickly, turnig his gaze away from Tohma's.
"Do you plan on returning to Eiri-san's place today, Shindou-san?" Tohma asked him.
"I guess I'll have to, Hiro's going out again tonight, so I'll have nowhere else to go."
"You could stay here if you would like to, Shindou-san." Tohma said with a smile, taking a small bite of his eggs.
"You'll let me stay here?" Shuichi asked the surprise evident in his voice as he looked at his boss in shock. "I don't want to be any trouble." He said, turning his gaze away from the older man, looking instead at his plate.
"If you would like to stay here, then you may."
"If you are sure it won't be any trouble."
"Its no trouble at all, Shindou-san." Tohma said, setting his fork down. "If you would like, we could stop by Eiri-Sans place and get some of your stuff, and you could get changed before work." Seeing Shuichi nod he gave the young singer a nod before taking his plate over to the trash and scraping off the rest off his breakfast. When you are done eatin, Shindou-san, we can leave." he said, before going to get dressed.
They reached Yuki's place shortly before 1:00pm. Tohma put his car in park before turning to look at Shuichi. He could see how pale the you man was, see the tensness of his muscles, the slight trembling of his hands as they rested on his lap.
"We are here Shindou-san." Tohma said quietly. Wide amethyst eyes looked over to him, before the singer nodded, quickly reaching a shaking hand over and grabbing the handle, opening the door. Watching him for a moment, Tohma grabbed his wrist before the other could get fully out of the car, causing the other to look at him in surprise.
"would you like me to go with you?" Tohma asked seeing how nervous the other was. When he saw the other nod, looking relieved, he got out of the car. He followed the other on the familar path to Yuki's appartment. When they reached their destination, he watched as Shuichi nervously reached into his back pocket, pulling out a key and, slipping it into the lock, unlocked the door. When the singer made no move to open the door, Tohma put his hand on Shuichi's, moving his hand and opening the door. The appartment was silent. Looking around Tohma saw the open door leading to the bedroom. 'I guess Eiri-san went out.' he thought to himself as he watched Shuichi move around the appartment, gathering some of his things, throwing them into a bag that he had picked up, before heading into the bedroom. He returned a few minutes later, clutching the bag. He looked nervously at Tohma, before looking around the appartment.
"We should get out of here, before he comes back." Shuichi said moving quickly to the still open door leading out into the hallway. When Tohma had left the appartment, he locked the door. Holding the bag in one hand, he grabbed the keyboardist with his other hand, dragging the blonde down the hallway, neither of them noticing the golden eyed londe glaring at their backs from the other end of the hall.
