[Kasuka's POV]

Kasuka sighed as he stretched his arms into the air, waking up slowly after a good night's sleep, one that didn't start until about midnight for him because he'd spent a good few hours into the night texting his boyfriend, asking him about his day and discovering a little bit more about his sisters. They sounded nice and they seemed to make the other ravenett very happy, so he was glad that the informant had gotten a chance to spend the day with him. Even if he would have much rather spent his own day hanging out with all of them in person, instead of being stuck in a never-ending meeting with pushy companies and his own manager.

But now he was home again, in his bed and well rested, and it was a bright new morning. And, he had a date with Izaya later tonight~ Sure, it was a double date with Shinra and Celty, but it was still going to be fun.

I wonder what I should do now. he thought to himself, glancing at the clock on his phone before humming to himself. It was a little bit later than he would have liked it to be, it was almost noon, but he felt well rested and he could still eat something, even if it wasn't breakfast… I'm a grown man, I can eat whenever I want. he reminded himself, groaning as he finally left the comfort of his warm sheets and got dressed, throwing on a shirt but not bothering to change his pajama pants before wandering out and cooking a meal for himself.

After that, it was a peaceful morning/afternoon. He watched the news while he did yoga, discovered that some gossip was going around about him and Karuha being an item, discovered yet another scandal had happened involving some pharmaceutical company in the area and that the color gangs were becoming active again, not choosing to hide in the shadows anymore. That last bit worried him because that could mean even more work for Izaya to do, if he chose to start doing requests again instead of just assignments, but he just sighed, letting come what may. It wasn't like he could advise Izaya on anything involving his work, seeing as he still had nothing to do with it, despite almost getting killed because of a few of the other man's actions.

I think I'm getting a little too comfortable being in odd, slightly illegal situations. It's like my life is becoming an action novel, with an unwilling protagonist… he mentally noted, turning off the TV for now before wandering around to find something else to do. His phone rang at high volume from upstairs and he went to go check it, only to see that he had missed a call and gotten a text afterwards instead.

[Hey, are you awake yet? Shinra was wondering if you'd like to have dinner a bit earlier than planned, Celty got an assignment for later tonight.] The message read, obviously being from Izaya.

[Yeah, I'm up. I woke up at 11 though -v-, And sure, we can go earlier. Should I start getting dressed now?]

[Probably. You are a diva, after all. We have to plan for your costume changes in advance.]

[Says the one who has to pretend they have cleavage to hide. I've seen you take over two hours to get ready for a scene.]

[Yes, but I always come out looking fabulous. And it's not my fault those women are so persistent to see me naked or something. Now get ready, I'm coming over to your place before we go.]

Kasuka smiled lightly at how suddenly Izaya announced he would be coming over, knowing by now that it meant he missed him and just wanted to hang out. Usually the informant was completely content to meet somewhere separately, both of them being used to hiding how intimate they were, but every now and then, neither of them could help wanting to be with their significant other for longer. I swear, I'm going to die with a smile on my face someday just because of him.

[Alright, I'll see you soon. The door's unlocked for you.] he sent back, still smiling to himself as he changed into a more appropriate pair of pants than his pajamas before going downstairs to unlock the door, turning right back around once that was accomplished so that he could really get dressed. Now to decide what to wear…

Perfect. Kasuka finally thought to himself, stretching out in his new outfit with a small sigh, Izaya sitting on the bed behind him. After about 20 minutes of sorting through his clothes to find some clothes that didn't look too formal, Kasuka had then spent another 20 minutes trying on different things to see if they looked right for a double date with friends. Nothing really seemed to, sadly, making him groan in an existential crisis for some amount of time before Izaya finally showed up at his house, letting himself in.

"Kasu-kun, I'm here. Are you ready or still being a diva?" the informant had called from down stairs, getting a louder groan in reply that had him going up to Kasuka's room in no time to see what the big problem was. "And this is why I said you needed a few hours~" Izaya had teased before getting a pillow to the face, just making the both of them grin.

After Izaya got there though, the informant went through all of his clothes as well, picking something out for him in no time. It almost made Kasuka blush at how easily he had found something appropriate to wear, while it had taken Kasuka much too long to even get started.

"I guess you're right, I am kind of a diva." Kasuka finally agreed, turning away from the mirror as Izaya came up behind him for a hug, grinning at his handiwork with pride.

"No, you're a super diva. You're just ridiculously nice about it." Izaya decided, getting Kasuka to roll his eyes before they shared a kiss. interrupted only by Izaya's phone ringing. Kasuka raised a brow at the unfamiliar ringtone playing though, looking at his boyfriend for as explanation as Caramelldansen began to escalate from the informant's pocket as he grabbed for his device. "What? Celty sent it to me as a suggestion. She said it would be easier to tell who's always calling me if I set different tones." the ravenett explained quietly, turning away from his boyfriend with a huff as he answered, giving a slightly embarrassed 'Hello, Shinra' to the doctor on the other line.

Kasuka couldn't help snickering at his boyfriend's decision of who to set it as. It's fitting, I guess. I wonder what he'd set as mine. the actor thought to himself as he walked to sit where Izaya had been a moment ago, now sitting on his bed in silence.

"Uh huh… uh huh.. Alright. That sounds good.. Yeah, he likes those.. Yes, he can hear me." Izaya began muttering to the other man, running a hand through his hair as the informant listened to Shinra probably babbling on. The informant cast a glance at Kasuka over his shoulder, getting a grin in return as Kasuka found out they were talking about him. The actor just wanted to hug the other to death when he blushed from being found out. "I'm his boyfriend, I'm perfectly qualified to speak for him… No, I do not care who wears the pants, Shinra! .. And I refuse to give that question a response. See you soon." the informant finally dismissed, shutting his phone off with an even larger blush than before, proceeding to drop down onto Kasuka's lap and bury his face in his neck.

"Shinra asking questions about us again?"

"Yeah."

"He tryin' to embarrass you again?"

"Yup.."

"And it's working~"

"Oh, you shut it too!"

"Alright, alright, sorry~ Anyways, should we get going? I can carry you all the way to his house if you really don't care who wears the pan- urk!"

"Serves you right." Izaya huffed, smirking now as he moved off of Kasuka's lap, blowing on his fingers like it was a gun after jabbing him straight in the side.

"You're evil." Kasuka replied, holding his side as he got up to follow.

"And I love you too." was all the informant said as they went off to the doctor's apartment.

Chapter 113!

Yay, I was actually able to do this within my own time limit! I know I set it at a week and I'm still having troubles, but I'm quickly getting back into the groove that I had set for myself at the beginning. Which means, soon I should be able to put up frequent updates, or at least more regular ones.

Let's all hope it stays the truth.

But anyways, I hope you all liked this chapter!
