Work Text:
It was the peak of winter season, the snow was falling gently to the ground. Hence Ayatsuji preferred to be in front of his fireplace with his cats curled up to him. He was sitting on his couch, taking a puff from his cigar as he relaxed in silence and solitude. This was his favorite way to rest from work, especially when it was winter.
His phone rang, breaking his reverie. He picked it up with a scowl on his face.
“Ayatsuji here. Yes… Yes...yes I will, it's just that I have my cat on my lap and it would be rude to disturb him,” he said and cut the line, then put his phone on silent as he relaxed.
Dazai looked up from his phone, nuzzling his head against Ayatsuji's lap. “Who was on the phone?” he asked, turning to face Ayatsuji.
“It's none of your concern,”Ayatsuji replied bluntly, patting his head and toying with the warm brown curls. The thoughts that danced in his head usually, he didn't need them now. For now he wanted nothing more than to focus on the moment.
“Whatever you say Yukito,” he said as he took his hand and kissed it, “Can I continue playing with my game, nya ?” he asked as he smiled playfully.
“Anything you wish,” Ayatsuji replied, leaning back to the couch and resuming his plan to relax. He didn't care as long as Dazai was by his side. After all only a monster could come close to understanding a monster like him.
