[Izaya's POV]

The informant breathed a sigh of relief as he once again laid in bed with his boyfriend, curled up into his side after a slow day of adjusting back to normal life. Now that everyone who had been watching them, threatening them and downright irritating them had been caught, they took full advantage of their ability to be with each other again.

Of course this meant not going out on the town together or leaving to have a date, but just staying inside and watching Netflix together was enough. It was much more than enough, actually, seeing as by the end of the day Kasuka was once again smiling.

The smiles weren't as big and strong as normal, but it was a start and just that made Izaya sure that things would be better. He really liked his boyfriend's smile and seeing it disappear like that, replaced by stress and confusion and tension, was not something he wanted to see again soon.

So, they had begun their day with Izaya making his boyfriend breakfast, for once not being pestered to help by the other ravenett, and eating together before settling on the couch and trying to decide what to watch. It was an easy choice for them to pick a comedy, one they'd already seen twice but still enjoyed fully, and start it before Kasuka suddenly remembered that they had popcorn and went to go get some.

It was nice for things to be normal again. No feeling of eyes on them. No one leaving letters at their door. No one to tell them that this was wrong and tell them that this, what they had, shouldn't exist.

It was still hard for Izaya to believe he had gotten lucky enough for someone like Kasuka to love him and find him attractive in the first place, so that notion was just oh-so-sweet to be rid of.

After that they had wondered what to do and had decided to head over to Kasuka's place instead, walking their together instead of calling Toren so they could get some fresh air, and finally ended up with Kasuka teaching Izaya how to play Legend of Zelda on his Wii; which led to Izaya knocking quite a few empty soda cans onto the floor and them laughing together like idiots because he actually had to wave it like a sword to fight anything.

That also let them learn that Izaya really enjoyed LoZ, him prompting his boyfriend if he had any other games of the franchise when they got tired of trying to get passed a certain boss that was a bitch to avoid.

He didn't, but Kasuka had promised him that he'd pick another one for them to play when he got the chance.

The two had went back to curling up together after that, missing how they would just cuddle with the TV on in the background the most while they thought about work or life or their friends. The two spent most of their time talking about trivialities this time though, since neither wanted to focus on their friends and co-worker that could have acted on their reason once again, leaving another body to be disposed of. Their conversation had went all the way from what they wanted for dinner to whether or not they could get a pet together in the future; their decision on that had been a "maybe"; and finally it stopped on if they could go on another 'vacation' together, like the one for the festival.

"Of course we can. Just name the place and we can go." Kasuka had invited him. Izaya shook his head.

"No, you were so good at planning things! Have you seen anywhere else you wanna go?"

"No, no, no. You have to pick because I picked last time. Just think about it." And with a pout Izaya finally did, though he came up blank on an actual place that he would want to visit. Almost everywhere he had an interest in would require a plane-ride to reach and he wasn't sure if he was ready to face that phobia again. He could still feel the turbulence…

"We'll think of something, don't worry." Kasuka finally said, giving him a kiss on the forehead before they moved on.

Despite not doing much physical activity that day, the two were unbelievably tired, even if neither of them wanted to sleep quite yet. It was only 7 pm, after all..

"Why don't we do that yoga thingy together?" Izaya asked, getting a look of surprise from his boyfriend before the other ravenett agreed, smiling a bit wider than he had all day.

The two settled down in the living room to get started, Kasuka doing poses while Izaya tried to copy him; which didn't work very well. Eventually, after Izaya fell out of about 6 positions, Kasuka stopped letting him do it on his own and paused his own stances so he could adjust Izaya into the correct place, trying to hold him there as well when it got particularly difficult.

"Kasu-kun, my arms are hurting!" the ruby-eyed informant complained, glancing at his boyfriend and seeing him almost upside down from his stance. Even upside down he could tell the actor was smiling, almost smirking.

"You're doing just fine, you can keep this up!" Kasuka prompted, trying to make him stay still for just two more minutes. When Izaya whined again he almost laughed. "Who would have thought the great Izaya Orihara would be crying over a little yoga~"

"Shut up! I'm just not used to using my arms like this! I use speed, not brute strength like a certain protozoan we know.." the informant protested, finally tumbling out of his position and onto his back as Kasuka let him relax, Izaya even panting as he righted himself.

"How the hell do you do this for fun..?"

"Practice~"

After that they went back up to Izaya's room to take a shower, both of them sharing a look before deciding to keep everything peaceful for now and shower separately. Neither of them would be much in the mood anyways.

They were both out soon and laying on the bed together, Kasuka with his arms pulling Izaya in close and the informant trying to pull him even closer by entangling their legs, an arm wrapped around his boyfriend's torso tightly as well. Everything was silent for a little while before Izaya spoke up, blushing lightly. "I missed this… A lot more than I ever want to again." the informant admitted, getting a chuckle out of the other and another kiss to the forehead.

"I missed this too. And don't worry, we'll never have to be apart like that again, I promise.." Kasuka murmured, burying his face in the ruby-eyed man's hair, both of them relaxing for another moment before they closed their eyes.

I really hope you're right, Kasu-kun. I love you.
