    Summary

    Tadashi sits in a waiting room. The chair is uncomfortable, and only makes him want to be anywhere else more than he already did, even though Ainosuke is sitting in the chair next to him. A white noise machine in the corner whirs quietly. Other than the receptionist, the room has no other people in it. Perhaps if he gets up fast enough, he can run away before Ainosuke reacts. Of course, that’s operating under the assumption that Ainosuke isn’t already prepared for that, and he’s sure that that’s not the case.
    -
    Tadashi—at Ainosuke's request—tries therapy for a second time, though this time on his own instead of risking repeating a previous bad experience where they tried couple's therapy. He's not confident that it's going to help, or that he's going to manage to go to more than one session, but everyone has to start somewhere.
    A fic that is mostly just the therapy sessions themselves. There will be some scenes of Tadashi's life with Ainosuke outside of them, because therapy doesn't end when you leave the office, but they're focused on Tadashi and his feelings and experiences.
