[Kasuka's POV]

"So, why are you so afraid of planes?" Kasuka finally asked when they were in the cab to get to their hotel. It was dark outside now since he'd gotten a late flight. He knew most people would take the night before a festival to get to bed early, especially for those who were going to be setting up stands in the early hours, so it was his best choice to keep their date a surprise until the last moment. So far, it was working. Nothing just laying out on the street screamed festival except every few times they stopped there would be a place still open and selling something traditional to wear for the event, also every so often there were carts tucked away on the sides for when they would be pulled around tomorrow.

With Izaya's head resting heavily on his arm though, he didn't worry about the man seeing them. "Why do you ask now? I've been cowering against you since before we got ON the plane.." the informant mumbled, eyes mostly closed as, after a particularly hard patch of turbulence that lasted for a whole quarter of the flight began, the man had been in a state somewhere between passing out and still trying to keep himself composed. It was almost like he was a mummy but at least he could still hold a conversation with him when he was like that. He'd tried to distract him a bit by showing him the video games he'd brought, thinking it worked when Izaya kept mumbling little words of 'what the fuck is that?' every time he found a new Pokemon.

"Because if I asked you on the plane and got you thinking of 'why?', then you could have been even more scared than before. That wouldn't have helped you at all." Kasuka pointed out softly, brushing a bit of Izaya's bangs out of his face before relaxing informant just made a sound of agreement before it was quiet again, leading the actor to believe he fell asleep before he suddenly started talking again.

"I was always scared of flying for some reason, it just doesn't feel natural, but another reason would be when I was little I would watch these American movies. I think it was called Final Destination? The whole thing shows a lot of very... conventional way to die, the very first one showed and repeated being that the plane explodes and rips apart and..." Izaya shuttered heavily, frowning beside him. "And yeah, I don't like flying." he finished off lamely, obviously just trying to push it out of his mind now. The only reason Kasuka didn't pull him into his lap was because they were in a cab where they needed to stay belted in, also that the driver didn't look particularly like the open-minded type in the first place. He wouldn't push his limits.

"I see. Well, you won't have to worry about it for two days at least. And if you'd like we can just skip the plane back and go on a train or two. We could stop at all the places along the way to Tokyo, like a road-trip but on tracks." Kasuka suggested, liking the sound of it and wondering why that didn't cross his mind first. Probably because with all the work they had this week it would have taken too long to get here and they wouldn't have enjoyed the actual remains of the festival. Izaya shifted behind him and nodded lightly, smiling again.

"That sounds nice. If the train gets crowded we can people-watch again, too." he hummed, slowly sounding more like he was falling asleep on him. Kasuka rolled his eyes lightly and waited for them to pull up to the hotel, both of them getting out of the cab, getting their stuff and soon being able to flop onto their beds. Well, bed. Izaya had dropped onto the bed closest to the door and Kasuka just didn't feel like going over to his own yet, so he dropped his things on the floor and cuddled up to Izaya's back, wrapping his arms around him and hugging him as they relaxed. He didn't expect for the man to fall asleep so quickly like that but when he heard ever so soft snoring, he knew he couldn't leave. One of his arms was under the man and tucked under his neck, making it almost impossible for Kasuka to leave without disturbing him again.

The actor sighed softly with a grin before settling and draping the sides of the comforter over them. "Good night."

The next morning the both of them woke up late, almost noon, and Kasuka blamed it on how comfortable Izaya was sleeping against him and both of them acting as the other's heater. The two of them were groggy as they blinked open their eyes, noticing that the smell of food was already coming from somewhere and it was probably what woke them up in the first place.

Knowing that it was street food, Kasuka was already excited to go down and try some and try out a couple games on the side of that as well. Izaya on the other hand, not knowing what they were still here for, kept grabbing his arm and making him stay in bed beside him, turning around even to wrap one of his legs over the ravenett's. "Izaya, we can't sleep the day away you know. We'll be up all night." Kasuka chuckled,hearing a soft whine come from the other before Kasuka rolled his eyes again and stood up, still being hindered by the man.

"But you're waaarm.. Just a little longer?" "No, Izaya. C'mon, we have to get dressed and go find something to eat, aren't you hungry?" "No, I'm sleepy." "You won't be soon."

Kasuka dislodged Izaya's hands from the waist of his shirt and went to the other side of the bed, picking up his boyfriend and carrying him out onto the veranda, then settling him on the railing so he could look down at the street. Once they were out there the food smelled even better and it was easy to tell that people were all excited for this event as well, chatter and laughter and general business in the street below.

Izaya opened his eyes again, having closed them the moment he was picked up, before turning a bit to look out at the street, taking a minute to process all that he was looking at. Kasuka waited patiently for a reaction, hoping deeply that Izaya didn't think this was a stupid idea, and he was pleasantly surprised with Izaya's lips meeting his soon, the man obviously smiling against him. "I love it, Kasuka~" he mumbled against him before giving him another kiss.

Chapter 13~

The date has begun, the love bugs are nice and cuddly, and now it's time for the fluff-storm to hit!

I had so many ideas for something fluffy they could do at a festival that I actually need to research which things this certain event has so I can organize my thoughts x3

Anyway, this chapter is also to give you guys a warning. Today is the official last day of my winter vacation, meaning tomorrow I go back to school.

None of my teachers give an excessive amount of homework or anything, so I'm going to try and keep these daily, but most likely this will be an every-other-day thing from now on. Also, the hardest day for me to put out chapters would be on Wednesdays in general.

I just wanted to let you guys know so you didn't feel forgotten, life is just catching up to speed again.

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