Nao pulled out a pan from a cupboard and placed it on the stove just to put down a second one beside it. He poured a little oil into both and switched on the heat.
Six eggs and a pack of American bacon were taken from the fridge. Salt and pepper.
"You're making breakfast?" Asked the tall guitarist, leaning against the door frame, toweling his black, wet hair, pearls of water running down his naked chest and soaking into his jersey pants.
"I am. So go ahead and sit down by the TV and watch some anime, it'll be ready in a few minutes." Nao said, trying to aim his smile at Tora's eyes but slipping to his torso again.
The taller hung his towel over his shoulder and crossed his arms.
"What?" Nao asked, wondering why Tora wasn't moving.
"Where's your bowl?" He looked around on the kitchen counter.
"Bowl? What for? I'm making fried eggs, not scrambled." Nao picked a spatula to spread the almost sizzling oil in the pans.
"And that's why you need a bowl." Tora stepped into the kitchen and soon had a small bowl in his hands. "You have to break the eggs into the bowl to see if they are still edible."
"They are. I just bought them yesterday." Nao frowned but kept on filling one pan with stripes of bacon, the mouthwatering smell quickly filling the room.
Tora took an egg and opened it into his bowl. "See?" he sniffed at it. "This one is good." He added two more eggs. "And then you have to pour them into the pan like this, so they all are fried for the same time."
Nao cocked a brow as Tora - even if gently - pushed him aside to do what he had just explained. "How do you do this without a bowl?"
"Like this." Nao picked an egg, broke it on the edge of the pan and just dropped the white and yellow onto the sizzling metal. "No dirty bowl this way."
"But- what if the eggs are no good?" To Nao's amusement Tora looked almost terrified.
Laughing, he added the last two eggs the very same way. "Well, I trust the shop I bought them in."
Tora just huffed and turned to look away. "Hey, the bacon is fine already." He fished out a few stripes and put them onto some kitchen paper to get some oil off. As he wanted to take out the rest Nao's hand on his arm stopped him.
"I like mine more crisp." He smiled at Tora's frown. "Just go into the living room, snuggle up with Chicken and wait for me. Relax. I'm not going to burn your kitchen down."
After a moment of thought, Tora touched his index finger to Nao's tip of nose. "Our kitchen."
The drummer took a deep breath as he was left alone in the room. Living together had its odds. He'd have to learn so much triviality to make it work.

As Nao wasn't paying attention for a second because he feared Chicken would crawl into his handbag, Tora snagged a crispy piece of bacon off his plate. The crunchy sound made him look back at his lover.
"You're right." Tora said, grinning.
"About what?"He already was chewing on a mouthful of egg again.
"It tastes better like this." He stole another stripe and bent forward to place a kiss on Nao's pursed lips.
