[Kasuka's POV]

The actor sat in his dressing room, texting his boyfriend random thoughts as he knew the other couldn't answer, having to try on more outfits that were fitted for him. Most of them would be for the show but Kasuka knew at least one of them would be for Izaya's first signing. It was right near the end of August and everyone was excited for the quarter-way point in their series being reached, the episode would be put out on the 1st of next month and then a couple days after that, Izaya would be attending a signing with him in Tokyo.

That would take them a couple days and Kasuka hoped he could convince his boss to let them room together, or at least keep quiet about it if he was allowed to make his own reservations somewhere. But what Kasuka was excited for was his plan for their next date. He already felt like it had been too long since their last one and they needed another, but Kasuka wanted it to be special so he kept on waiting until he remembered a certain event happening on the other side of Japan. The Kishiwada Danjiri festival.

It was one of the most famous festivals in Japan, and even if it was far, if they took a plane to get there it would only be an hour away. Kasuka obviously wasn't sure how much Izaya would love the idea, but he could at least try and impress him by showing him he'd thought about him. So, he kept on waiting patiently for Izaya to show up at his door and say he was done, then he could ask him about it. He wanted to keep it a surprise for where they were going, but just asking him on a little vacation should work. With all of the hustle and bustle they were about to go through, he'd imagine Izaya would never say 'no' to the idea of relaxing for two or more days with him.

Another half an hour later, there was a knock on his door and when he answered it, a very tired looking Izaya was on the other side. "Not only did I have two assistants sticking me with needles, I had them teasing me about being 'so famous already' every time my phone went off." the man huffed, sending a small glare at him. Kasuka knew he wasn't mad though, the two of them had been in scarily good moods since they had finally kissed, sharing more of them whenever they got the chance and being closer to each other than usual. Izaya had even surprised the actor by reaching for his hand once, something he hadn't ever done before.

Kasuka just gave him a smile and stepped aside so he could come in, the couple sitting down on the couch after the actor had grabbed their scripts. "So, did you try on an outfit for the signing?" he asked, knowing that if he hadn't their director would expect him to wear one of his own outfits again, which likely meant the two of them going shopping again. Izaya nodded lightly as he went through his phone, a smile and small chuckles coming from him as he kept going through the 20 messages Kasuka had sent him earlier.

"Really? You want to go on another date?" Izaya finally asked as he got to the most recent one, not laughing now as he looked over to Kasuka.

"Yeah, of course I do. It's been almost 2 whole weeks since our last one, and I really had a good time." Kasuka admitted, scratching the back of his neck lightly before lifting his arm to put it around Izaya's shoulders. The ravenett got the hint, leaning into his side and letting himself be cuddled as they talked. "So, I was just wondering if you would be free for a weekend, maybe a little more?" Kasuka asked softly, not knowing if he had worded it right.

When Izaya looked up at him his worries went away, the smile on his face showing he was excited. "If you're off from work, then so am I. Let's do it." he agreed, tilting his head up a bit more as he waited patiently, making Kasuka smile. After their first kiss, Izaya had started being a bit more open with when he wanted one just as much as Kasuka was more open with giving them, now not having to be afraid. Sure, he was still afraid of them getting caught, them being comfortable together and being comfortable with the media were two different things, but no one had said anything about that yet.

Kasuka leaned down and pressed their lips together, holding in a groan when someone knocked on his door again. Dong-Yul's voice came from the other side to tell them that Kobayashi was needed for one more fitting, since the assistants had missed an outfit when moving everything. Kasuka and Izaya shared a look before the informant stood, leaning down to get one last kiss before leaving for his dressing room again.

Kasuka slid down where he sat once he was gone, running a hand through his hair as he contemplated how much he was beginning to hate that fucking Korean.

Chapter 8!

You guys are gonna get another date scene~

Just wait for it you guys, it probably won't be the next chapter since I also want to write down Izaya's experience at his signing, but it's coming soon!

Also, as a side note, the word 'Korean' is not being used in an offensive way, it's just one of my descriptive words for Dong-Yul, since he is in fact Korean. It's like when I call them both 'the ravenett' or Kasuka as 'the actor', etc.

This is just a little filler chapter I guess, something to let you guys know what will be happening and also to let you guys see more development. Hope no one minds.

I hope you all liked this chapter! Favorite, follow and review to see more!

PS. Happy New Years everyone, ¡Próspero año nuevo!
