Egawa was staring out the window, a small smile dancing on her lips, and it was making Takoi suspicious.
“What do you see?”
“How bout you come look?”
Frowning, Takoi nonetheless stood up to join her.
And there was Shiono, studiously not looking up towards the Criminal Affairs Division window.
“No reason for you to stay overtime, eh, Takoi-san?” Egawa said slyly.
“Uh, no…?”
“Good. Get going.”
He tried not to rush, which made him look all the more rushed, much to Egawa’s amusement.
Regardless, he was down to Shiono in a few minutes, who wasn’t even supposed to be at the Yamo-no-michi office, but of course probably couldn’t resist coming a whole evening early. Plans made for Saturday morning meant nothing to the man if he could come Friday evening, it seemed.
“Shiono.”
While Takoi would have startled, and startled badly from that sort of announcement, Shiono just looked up from his phone, which was open to his chat with Takoi.
“I hadn’t even texted you and you’re already down?”
He had a feeling he was supposed to be riled up by that, especially when it was tied with that sly smile that Shiono wore all too well, but it was hard to be when it had been two entire weeks since he had seen Shiono.
“Egawa saw you.”
Shiono raised an eyebrow, looking back up towards the Criminal Affairs Division window. “I see.”
“So? What brings you here early?” Takoi asked, trying for casual and knowing he was probably failing. “Since our plans for the baseball game aren’t until tomorrow?”
Shiono gave him an unimpressed look, which was unfair, since it made Takoi’s heart skip a beat. How was this man so attractive doing that?
“Why do you think, Takoi-san?” His voice was low, and full of promise.
Takoi swallowed, noticing that Shiono was tracking the movement, and looking satisfied about the reaction.
Having a younger boyfriend was going to be the death of him…!
