The next morning, as you got out of bed, you smelt something divine, something heavenly, something you haven't smelt in years. You stepped out of your room in curiosity.
"Ohayo~! (Last name)-cchi~!" Kise greeted, "Why are you up so early?"
"Eh?" you tilted your head, "We have school today, don't we?"
"It's a Saturday!"
"Oh! No wonder!" you smiled as you looked at your living room. It was sparkling clean! You gasped, "Kise-kun! Did you do this?"
"Yeah. Is there something wrong? It's not good?"
"No, Kise-kun. It's perfect!" you exclaimed, "My house hasn't been this clean since I was 5!"
"I'm glad you liked it." he smiled.
"Say, Kise-kun," you glanced at his eye bags, "Where did you find time to do all this?"
"Oh.. Just took about 5 minutes. No big deal." he smiled.
You glanced at the over-piling cans of energy drinks in the waste basket, "Kise-kun, you shouldn't have..."
"I had time anyway~!"
"Really?"
"Yeah, I also brought your laundry to the dry cleaner's place too, I'll pick it up later."
"Kise-kun, I can't -"
"Shh.." he placed his slender fingers on your lips, "The dry cleaning's on me."
You stunned for a second, then said, "Are you sure? I could seriously pay for it."
"Yeah, I still have some money on my modelling job. But hey, I made breakfast."
So that's where that smell came from!
On your plate aligned a sunny side up egg, two sausages and French toast with a piece of half-melted butter. Next to it was a bowl of freshly cut fruits and a cup of coffee.
"Kise-kun!"
"You need more?"
"No, this is amazing! What about yours?"
"I've... eaten already. Thanks for your concern, (Last name)-cchi~!"
"No you haven't!" you said as you cut parts of your breakfast and gave it to him on a plate.
"No, it's okay, (Last name)-cchi."
"Eat it." you said as you shoved the half of your sunny side up egg into his mouth.
He quickly swallowed it, "(Last name)-cchi, you shouldn't feed me, you're too skinn-"
Before he finished, you forced the the spoonful of diced fruits.
He was flushed, so were you.
"Look Kise-kun, you can't be so nice to me, okay?" your tone became gentle.
He shake his head, "I like it when I'm nice to you."
What does that mean? Does he really like me? Is he confessing now? Should I beg his pardon? It would be really awkward...
He snapped your thought, "Wanna hangout today?"
"Sure thi- *a-chuu!*." you sneezed.
"Looks like your immune system finally broken down. You should stay home today."
"No, it's all righ- *a-chuu!*"
He suddenly stood up, and carried you bridal style and placed you on the sofa.
"K-K-K-Kise-kun." you blushed.
"Wait here, I need to make a phone call." he took out his phone as he walked somewhere further.
You were the musical type, listening was definitely your speciality, so you decided to eavesdrop from the long distance.
"Yeah, sorry Kurokocchi. I can't make it. Can you tell the others too? Yes, tell Midorimacchi that I'll give him the lucky blonde hair tomorrow at the park. I know, sorry." he cut off the line and walked back to you.
"You have an important errand to run?" you said as you sat up.
"No, no big deal." he smiled.
You decided to tell him the truth about eavesdropping, "Kise-kun, I heard it. Go meet Kuroko-kun and the others, I'm fine."
"Was I THAT loud?"
"No, but I have a sensitive ear." your face got pale as you sneezed again.
He took a blanket and put it on you. He also took a stool and sat next to you.
"Lie down." he said as he gently pushed you down.
"Aren't you going to meet Kuroko-kun?"
"No, I'll accompany you here."
"But I can't do anything. I'll waste your Saturday."
"You said it yourself, you can't do anything. So I'll be here to assist you." he said as he stroked your hair.
You blushed harder.
"I'll go get you some hot water and some chicken soup." he walked to the kitchen.
You couldn't believe yourself, only yesterday you were still craving for Taichi to live next to you. Now, you were more than happy for Kise to be here.
Before you could think of anything else, you've already fallen asleep.

"(Last name)-cchi..." he shakes you gently.
"Huh..?" you slowly open your eyes. To your surprise, his face was right in front of yours.
"It's lunch time. I made you chicken soup."
"You cooked it from scratch?"
"Yeah! I hope you like it." he said he slowly fed you.
The warmth. You didn't know whether it came from the soup, or Kise.
Time suddenly passed like rockets when you were with him. You finished the bowl of soup, even though it only felt like 5 seconds to you.
Kise held your hand and rested his face on the back of it. His face was extremely warm, or was it because your hand was cold?
"(Last name)-cchi.." he pouted, not letting your hand go, "Your hand is really cold..."
"Well, your face is really warm.." you didn't dare to use the word "hot" because you were afraid that he might take it the wrong way.
You suddenly fell asleep. As you did, Kise kissed your forehead, without your acknowledgement.
"Sleep well." he whispered.

As soon as you woke up a few hours later, you saw Kise asleep, next to you on his little stool. You were definitely touched. The more he did all of these little action, the more you were crazier for him.
Kise felt you moving, and woke up immediately.
"(Last name)-cchi..." he said as he rubbed his eyes, "Do you need a cup of water?"
You smiled, "The real question is, do YOU need a cup of water?"
"I'm fine.."
"Go take a nap, I know you didn't sleep well last night."
"(Last name)-cchi, I can handle it. A couple of energy drinks will do the job."
"You can't keep drinking those things, Kise-kun."
He patted your hand and got up, "It's okay.. It's time to pick up your laundry! Be back in five!" he rushed out.
You were flushed, you weren't sure whether you should make the first move or not. Besides, you still have Taichi.
As you thought, you received a message from a classmate saying that Taichi has a new girlfriend already.
Well, now it's all down to Kise. You sat up, and saw Kise's phone. Now was your golden opportunity!
You quickly unlocked his phone with ease, knowing that his password was is birthday.
You opened his Messages. All his texts goes to the Generation of Miracles members. Doesn't he text any girls?
Looks like he was completely pure.
By the time you were snooping through his Camera Roll, you heard the door being unlocked. You quickly put his phone back.
"(Last name)-cchi~!"
"Hey, Kise-kun."
I'm so sorry (Last name)-cchi!"
"Why?"
"The cleaning lady didn't use your favourite flavor!" he bowed down and looked away in guilt.
"What? That doesn't matter!"
"Really? But the last time you said that you would smell like raw fish in the market!"
You got up and walked to him, "What flavour is this?"
"No, you shouldn't stand." he picked you up and placed you gently on the sofa.
You were completely flushed.
"By the way, (Last name)-cchi, are you feeling better?"
"Much better." you smiled as you lied down.
"Sleep." he said he stroked your hair.
You nod and you closed your eyes slowly. With him around, you never had any nightmares. You felt safe with him, like nothing could hurt you any more.
