[Izaya's POV]

Everything went well the first day of signing, all the fans being mostly polite and just a bit too excited, nothing he couldn't handle. A couple times people asked him for pictures with them instead of a signed photo-copy, which he didn't exactly mind. He felt a bit bad when the people managing them said it would cost extra and a petite girl didn't have 5 more dollars to get one, looking like a kicked puppy, but Izaya was impressed when one of the couples further back in line moved up to give her the money, having enough for themselves without it.

Ah, my lovely humans.. Even with all the bad things in the world there are still people doing little things like that. Sadly, if everyone was so generous the world would be completely boring.

The rest of the day was uneventful but just having that many people around him and all shouting at once had drained him, enough that when Kasuka and Izaya got back to their room the informant had flopped down on the bed and didn't even notice when he'd fallen asleep. He'd just woken up two hours later with Kasuka sitting next to him, reading some book he'd brought and running his hand through Izaya's hair. The man was so groggy still he didn't even want to be move.. But he pulled himself up and into the shower before coming back and cuddling into Kasuka's side, only letting him play with his hair again before knocking out for a second time.

He'd woken up again at around 5 in the morning, feeling rested and happy for the first time in a while. Usually he had an awful time getting to sleep. He'd wake up every two hours and, even if he didn't need much sleep to run, whenever he got even one hour less than usual for whatever reason it took a while to stop grumbling about it being too early for shit. Guess all I need for a full night sleep is Kasuka. Izaya smiled to himself and looked around, noticing that Kasuka wasn't sleeping with him in the same bed but over in his own, obviously having moved there after helping Izaya, who was now tucked under the covers unlike when he'd fallen asleep the night before.

The informant wondered what he should do, glancing at the clock and realizing they didn't have anything to do until 11, leaving a lot of options for them. He sighed and thought about it for a moment before glancing at Kasuka again, never getting to see what he slept like before. They always used different rooms when staying over at each other's houses and even when they fell asleep on the couch or something, Izaya was either the first to go or too comfortable to look around. Now that he had his chance, he lifted himself up a bit to see over the man's shoulder, snickering softly at what he saw.

Unlike how Izaya had slept, not moving a muscle and probably appearing dead, Kasuka looked like he'd thrashed around for a bit before sleeping deeply, the covers half off of him and cascading onto the floor, leaving his sweatpants-clad legs uncovered. And his hair was messy, definetly going to need to be brushed and maybe even conditioned before he got it to calm down and one of his arms was cast over his eyes sloppy, since he was facing the windows and seemed to be able to tell in his sleep. It all made Izaya grin before the informant stood up, wondering if he was a light sleeper.

He moved closer to him and bit his lip before poking Kasuka's shoulder, barely getting a muscle to move. He did it again and muttered a 'good morning' before smirking again and going to the other side of the bed, crawling over to his side and whisking the rest of the blanket over them both. Izaya didn't expect for him to move at all but he froze when Kasuka free arm moved over and crushed him into his chest, acting like Izaya was a teddy bear with no need for oxygen. "Kasu-kun, that isn't comfortable..." he grumbled, shifting and moving to try and loosen the others grip, only doing so enough that he could rest against him and breath again. No luck on getting him to let go though...

Looks like I'm stuck then. Izaya resigned, letting out a small sigh and closing his eyes again, smiling to himself as he waited patiently for Kasuka to wake up.


The informant must have fallen asleep again at some point because this time he opened his eyes at 7, blinking lightly before looking up and seeing Kasuka with a shocked expression, obviously just having woken up to the man in his arms. They stared at each other for a minute before Izaya decided to defuse the tension, nuzzling his face into Kasuka's chest and humming. "Good morning, sleepy head."

That snapped him out of it pretty quickly, both arms now moving to hold the ravenett close. "Good morning.. When did you get up?" Kasuka asked softly, making Izaya pick up his head to look at the side-table between their beds. "I woke up around 5, so it's been two hours." he muttered to himself, also answering his boyfriend's question. He dropped his head back down and smirked up at the actor. "Why didn't you tell me you have some of your brother's strength in you? You almost killed me while you were asleep." Izaya teased, seeing another shocked look go onto his face.

"I did what?" "Don't worry about it, Kasu-kun. You did it in a very cute way." the informant comforted, cuddling into him again when the blanket moved and cold air came in, making him shiver unhappily.

Kasuka took notice and moved the blanket against them again, wrapping Izaya up to make sure he wasn't cold. "So, we have like 4 hours until we need to work, right?" he asked, seeing Izaya nod lightly as they kept cuddling. "Alright, so we have an hour or two to eat, an hour to get ready. What will we do with just an hour to ourselves?" Kasuka hummed, looking down at Izaya with a grin that made the informant's cheeks almost match his eyes.

"You already know the answer to that, stupid Heiwajima..." Izaya muttered, hiding his face before Kasuka guided his chin up, pressing kisses to his lips and over his cheeks before they heard both of their stomachs rumble, Kasuka's being noticeably smaller than Izaya's. "Oh yeah, I slept through dinner..." the informant mumbled, now an even brighter red at ruining the moment.

"It's fine, I'm hungry too. C'mon let's go check out what they have for breakfast first. I think there was something about a waffle-bar on the website." "Waffles~!"


The two finished up breakfast together, Kasuka being right about the waffle-bar, and sharing small kisses between trips to get more food. They finally went back up to their room, not wanting to get ready yet but also not wanting to go back to sleep, the mood from before vanishing as well. Kasuka and Izaya shared another kiss before doing their usual routine as well as they could in the hotel room, moving around each other and just enjoying the other's company while they got things done.

Izaya had already taken another shower and gotten half dressed, currently just wearing some jeans and a t-shirt so he didn't mess up his actual outfit, and was now trying to dry his hair while he watched Kasuka once again do yoga, this time more interested in his boyfriend than what he was doing. And despite what most people think, he had a very good imagination. The informant actually had to stop himself from thinking before he gave himself a problem, turning away from the man and inspecting the book Kasuka had been reading earlier to find out what it was about, inspecting it and skimming through it until Kasuka was done and announced that he'd be using the shower. "Alright." Izaya hummed, putting the book down and glancing at the bathroom door before smacking himself on the forehead repeatedly. "Stupid, fucking, pervert..."
