It was morning now.

She could tell because the sun was hitting her closed eyelids and because her futon buddy was no longer lying beside her.

But, she knew he was still in her apartment, and specifically, she knew he was still in her loft.  She heard the soft shuffling of paper every now and then, so she was sure when she opened her eyes she would see Dazai sitting beside her futon reading something.  Mos't likely, he would be reading a report of yesterday's events.

Her eyes peeled open and she turned towards the sounds of the pages being turned, and her suspicions were confirmed. There he sat with a towel around his shoulders while he sat cross-legged in one of her oversized sweatshirts that she cuddled in during her monthly week of pain and suffering. He also wore a pair of her sweatpants, which were a little too short for him considering he was nearly 5 inches taller than she.  They rode up to his calves.   It was now her favorite sweatshirt and sweatpants.

Judging from what she saw, she concluded, "Did you shower and then pilfer through my clothes?"

Dazai still fixed his eyes to the report in front of him, but a small smile showed on his face before he said, "Spot on, as usual.  I was getting ready to meet a friend at 8:30, but I didn't have any clean clothes here.  Apparently, my backup clothes are dirty because we've been away from your house for so long that I forgot to wash them before our unforeseen vacation."

She nodded in understanding before attempting to sit up in the futon.  Unlike yesterday where her body felt as if it weighed a thousand tons, today she felt as light as a featherwhilst sitting up.  Well, she felt as light as a feather minus a weight on her lap.  When she sat up, she felt the weight shift and she heard a soft mewl come from her lap.  Resting on her lap was her Snow White Persian, whom she had missed dearly while she was kidnapped and in protection.

"Good morning, sweetie.  Did you sleep well?" In response to her question, she heard a soft meow from Mochi, and Dazai also responded to her question, "I slept fine, except did you know that  when you sleep you— Wait, we're you asking the cat or me?"

Y/n tried to hold in a snicker as she was petting the cat, who was now scowling at Dazai as if tell him to back off from her owner.

She couldn't hold in her laughter anymore, and Dazai couldn't help but laugh alongside her before she said, "If I was going to ask you how you slept—"

She slipped from beneath the covers, much to the cat's distaste, before she scooted over to Dazai and cupped his cheeks with her hands before she continued, "If I was going to ask you how you slept, I would ask you like this."

She gave him a kiss on his cheek before she asked him, "How did you sleep, Osamu?"

His cheeks flushed crimson before he quickly trapped her hands against his cheeks with his own. He turned his head to kiss her the palm of her hand that he was holding, causing her to blush seven shades of crimson as he said, "I slept well.  And you, Y/n?"

She stuttered out, "D-did you know that y-you have restless l-leg syndrome."

He pouted at her before he said, "If you are going to lie, you need to lie better."  He released her hand before she said, "I lie great, you just know me too well."

He turned back to the report in his hand before he said, "I'm meeting an old friend today, so I won't see you until later.  You're being placed on remote support with Haruno and Naomi for the time being, and your apartment will serve as the new temporary safe house for you three.  I tried searching everywhere I could, and I couldn't find anything that tied this place to the Agency, so all of you will be safe here."
