[Izaya's POV]
The informant sighed as he retreated back to his dressing room, the day over and finally letting him change back into normal clothes. Usually it didn't feel like a blessing to be let off the stage and told to go home, his job being entertaining and all, but lately - this last week in particular - he couldn't help feeling a lot more comfortable in the confines of a closed room.
Ever since he'd broken it to Dong-Yul that he had been leading him on, in the most honest of terms, the Korean had been awfully cold to him. Which was to be expected and Izaya couldn't blame him for it, but the stinging looks he received from him with an obvious intent of harm was something he didn't like feeling for hours at a time in such an open area. The man was in charge of so much, he could easily tamper with something and bring Izaya harm or even something worse..
He never looked like the type though, having the fashion sense of a teenager and the open-mindedness of a child, along with his overbearing nature to show affection towards people - all of those pointed to a completely different side of Dong-Yul than he had been getting this week and it made the informant uncomfortable.
Stupid human.. You're becoming unpredictable. he thought to himself, grimacing slightly as he pulled on the last of his normal ensemble. Izaya sighed aloud before double checking that he looked alright and leaving, heading immediately outside and towards a taxi, only slowing down when Kasuka caught up to him. They would usually go back to their separate homes right after work, not wanting to make anyone suspicious, but everyone once in a while they would head off together instead.
"Hey, do you have any assignments tonight?" Kasuka asked him, hands in his pockets instead of holding his boyfriend's, still too close to their work and the front gate.
"I'm free tonight, as far as I know. I might have an email saying otherwise.." the informant replied, glancing at him with a small smile as they went over to Kasuka's limo, which was waiting for them at the curb.
"Good, then we can go out for a while." his boyfriend announced, not making it a question like normal. Izaya glanced at him for it but just nodded, sitting beside him as the car went off.
"And just what did you have in mind, may I ask?" "It's a surprise."
Well, that was new. Usually the actor would just come right out with it or at least tell them why they were going somewhere. Interesting..
The two cuddled during the car ride, only separating when Kasuka let his boyfriend out at his house so he could switch into more comfortable and less effeminate clothing. They were back on the road again in 10 minutes, heading towards their un-disclosed location. "Kasu-kun, seriously, where are we going? We're on the other side of the city!" Izaya finally announced after a while of driving, lifting his head from Kasuka's shoulder to look out the window more clearly and observe the areas of his home that he'd barely ever seen. Sure, he got clients from all over Tokyo but if they were to live or work this far away then he would tell them to come on their own time and meet him closer to his own home, giving himself a lot less hassle.
Kasuka just gave him a smile and held his hand as the drive was soon over, them pulling up into a crowded parking complex and getting their place, hopping out for Izaya to see a large building lit up with streams of people going in. It only took him a moment to realize where they were. "Kasu-kun, you didn't!" he instantly gaped, looking at his boyfriend with wide eyes, only to see the actor looking awfully proud of himself.
"You told me you wanted to see the show, so I made sure to get tickets. It's the last night they're here too, so I'm glad I didn't have to pull you away from your work by force." Kasuka announced, half-joking as he wrapped Izaya in a hug, the informant in front of him almost jumping for joy.
The ravenett wasn't just happy at the fact he was seeing the show, he often didn't want to go out of his way to watch a play or performance at all, but just the fact that Kasuka had been listening to him when he'd been babbling to him for almost two hours straight at some point almost 2 weeks ago and remembered and made sure to do it just for him made him feel so much better after the week he'd had.
"Thank you, Kasu-kun.." Izaya whispered to him, giving him a kiss on the cheek as they finally began walking towards the building and found their seats, a private booth up on the second floor so they wouldn't be surrounded by annoying or pushy crowds. Toren and his girlfriend had been invited to the performance as well, Kasuka saying something about not wanting to make him drive them all the way up here for nothing and offering to pay for their date, at least this part of it, and were in the booth next to theirs so each couple could still be alone.
The play started and the two watched intently, the theatrics and their cuddling distracting the two from noticing a pair of eyes following them from across the theater isles.
Chapter 44!
And again, fluff mixed in with the plot because I feel like it's the best way to keep everyone happy.
I'm not sure if I'll do this all the time from now on, probably not seeing as there will be parts where fluff is near impossible, but the more fluff the merrier ^^
So, tell me what you guys think. Who's the creepy creeper at the theater?
Dong-Yul or a new intruder? A new rival perhaps? An old one with a grudge?
I want to hear your guys' opinions ^^
I hope you all liked this chapter! Favorite, follow and review to see more!
