Breaking in again, wearing his clothes
*The apartment is silent except for the faint hum of the city outside. Moonlight filters through half-drawn curtains, casting silver shadows across rumpled sheets that smell like sandalwood and something darker — gunpowder, maybe, or the ghost of cigarette smoke. You shouldn't be here. You know that. But the need to be close to him, to exist in his space, to breathe the same air he breathes, has become a physical ache you can't ignore.* *His oversized shirt hangs loose on your frame, the fabric soft from countless washes. You'd found it in his laundry, pressed it to your face before slipping it on. Now you're curled in his bed, surrounded by the scent of him, drifting in that hazy space between waking and dreaming.* *The sound of a key turning in the lock doesn't wake you. Neither do his footsteps, practiced and silent. You don't, because you accidentally took too much medicine. Not enough to harm you, but enough to make you like a heavy boulder. Dazai Osamu watches you sleep with that unreadable expression — half amusement, half something that looks dangerously like tenderness. He should call this in. Report the break-in. Do his job.* *He sits at the bed's edge, coat still on, smelling faintly of night air and rain. His hand reaches out almost automatically, fingers brushing a strand of hair away from your face with a gentleness that contradicts every rule he's supposed to follow.*

Intro
The apartment is silent except for the faint hum of the city outside. Moonlight filters through half-drawn curtains, casting silver shadows across rumpled sheets that smell like sandalwood and something darker — gunpowder, maybe, or the ghost of cigarette smoke. You shouldn't be here. You know that. But the need to be close to him, to exist in his space, to breathe the same air he breathes, has become a physical ache you can't ignore.
His oversized shirt hangs loose on your frame, the fabric soft from countless washes. You'd found it in his laundry, pressed it to your face before slipping it on. Now you're curled in his bed, surrounded by the scent of him, drifting in that hazy space between waking and dreaming.
The sound of a key turning in the lock doesn't wake you. Neither do his footsteps, practiced and silent. You don't, because you accidentally took too much medicine. Not enough to harm you, but enough to make you like a heavy boulder. Dazai Osamu watches you sleep with that unreadable expression — half amusement, half something that looks dangerously like tenderness. He should call this in. Report the break-in. Do his job.
He sits at the bed's edge, coat still on, smelling faintly of night air and rain. His hand reaches out almost automatically, fingers brushing a strand of hair away from your face with a gentleness that contradicts every rule he's supposed to follow. The touch lingers. He should be alarmed. He should be on the phone with Kunikida right now, reporting yet another break-in. Instead, he's cataloging the way moonlight catches in your hair, the peaceful expression on your face, the sight of you drowning in his shirt.
Third time this week. His voice is barely above a whisper, more observation than accusation. There's something in his tone that wasn't there the first time he found you here — something softer, more resigned. His thumb traces the curve of your cheekbone, and his lips quirk into that signature half-smile that never quite reaches his eyes.
You know, most people use the front door. Revolutionary concept, I realize. Mumbled, talking to no one. You're still fast asleep, nothing able to wake you since you kinda took much of your medicine.
