Hi GUYS! Here's the update!


Chapter 2

Ehhh...? What's happening? Why is Takano knocking on the door? I have to see what's going on...I suppose. Or he will wake up the neighbors. And just when I dozed off, seriously.

He got up and walked to the door like a zombie.

"What do you want?"

"Oi! What's with that attitude? Is that the way to talk to someone you called at 1 am?!" Yelled Takano.

Called...oh so that explains the beeps. I must've called him when I was randomly clicking buttons. And when he picked up and nobody was there, he got panicked.

The brunette opened the door and stood in front of the other man.

"I-I'm sorry I disturbed you. I was playing with my phone and I think accidentally called you." He admitted, looking down trying to not make any eye contact.

"Is that all?! Oh my god, I got worked up over nothing. It's just that, after I picked up you didn't reply and when I called you back, you kept ignoring me. And I got worried you know." Masamune complained.

At least now i know what the melody after the beeps was. It was my phone's ring tone.

"But what were you doing at 1 am on your phone, you have to be asleep by now! Aren't you tired?"

"I am, it's just that so many things are happening at once, my head just won't turn off!"

"Is that so..." Takano had to admit this week was really stressful. The deadline was in the middle of the week and he was nagging everyone to be in time. But Ritsu wasn't the complaining type. He would always finish his work properly. And he also mentioned that many things were happening. Takano was dreading to know what was bothering him.

"I don't think I'll sleep after this. I drifted off the last time, but I won't be able to do it again." Complained Onodera.

"Then would you like to come at my apartment?"

"HUUH?" His immediate reaction was expected. All kinds of thoughts popped up in his head. And of course Masamune could read them all on his heated face.

"Don't worry, I'm not gonna try to sleep with you" He giggled "you said you can't sleep right. It's probably because it's hot and your apartment doesn't have an air conditioner."

That thought hasn't crossed his mind. Maybe he is right. And that was his goal from the beginning - to apologize properly and get rid of at least one of his problems. And he said he won't try anything funny.

"O-okay...but if you do anything-"

"I WON'T!" He snapped. "Don't you have any trust in me?!" He felt anger take over his body, but he had to conceal it. This was a golden chance he mustn't miss. "I'm sorry, but seriously try to trust me. I would never do anything to hurt you. I understand that you're tired, I'll help you as much as I can." He smiled softly. He honestly had no intentions to do anything. "Come on let's go!"

Ritsu quietly followed him. When they got in the apartment he felt the refreshing air hit him.

"Hey, would you like some boiled milk. It helps fall asleep."

"U-um...okay" It was so awkward, he couldn't really come up with any topics to talk about. He watched the man take the milk out of the refrigerator and start to boil it. And then he remembered why he was here.

"T-takano san, about what I said today at work" he lifted his head to see his neighbor looking at the boiling milk instead of him. "You've been really quiet since then. I just want to let you know that-"

"I know I know, don't worry. I'm not mad or upset or anything. Don't sweat it" Masamune said calmly.

Ritsu was definitely surprised by his words. It was so unlike Takano to cut him off during talking. He was probably too tired and didn't want an argument. We'll discuss that tomorrow.

"The milk is done." Ritsu stared at the man while he was sipping the hot drink in a big mug. It was such a cute mug, it had a white rabbit with a wand in its hand on it. Masamune gave the drink to the brunette.

"Thank you..."

"You're welcome" He smiled gently.

The milk was hot, it took him up to three minutes to drink it all, and the mug wasn't a small one to booth.

"T-takano-san where did you get that cup from?"

"Huh? Oh it's from an autograph event of one of my authors. They distributed those to the fans and there were some extras, so I got one. It's cute, isn't it?"

"Yeah, it really is."

"Do you want it?" Takano asked curiously.

"..."

"You can have it if you want to"

Ritsu's face lightened up. He was like a child on a Christmas morning.

"Can I? Thank you Takano-san!"

"No problem!" If he could do things like that all the time. He would do anything to see his Ritsu overjoyed like this. He wanted to hug him, hold him, but he knew he couldn't. If he breaks this moment, God knows how the brunette would react. Even what's happening right now makes him extremely happy. "Did the drink work?"

"Oh yeah, the A.C. helped too."

"OK then, you can sleep on the bed, I'll sleep on the couch"

"But I don't wanna intrude" mumbled the brunette.

"It's OK, really. Feel at home. You know where my room is right?" Teased the raven-haired man.

"OF COURSE I'M THERE EVERY TIME WE-" he cut himself off "Anyways! Good night"

Takano giggled seeing his tsundere guest blushing like that. Well he didn't kill the moment, in fact he made it better.

Ritsu, still in his pajamas, made his way to the bed, which was messy because Takano was sleeping in it not long ago. He curled himself up in the silk-like blanket and put his head on the soft pillow and in no time he snoozed. The milk, the A.C. and the cute mug he just received calmed him down. But most of all, it was Takano's scent that filled the room, which made him feel so comfortable and cozy.

Takano meanwhile was laying on the couch, with that goofy smile of his face. If a cute mug can make him so happy, then what more can he do for him. Because he would do ANYTHING he could. Maybe he should start of with a breakfast the next morning?


Thanks for reading guys, the next chappie will be up in a few hours (working on it right now)
