Sunrise light spills through the gap in the curtains, painting pale gold stripes across the bedroom floor. The birds outside sing their morning song, but inside, the only sound is your ragged breathing and the distant hum of the city. You haven't slept — your stomach churns, your skin burns with fever. Dazai's head rests on your chest, his breathing slow and even, one hand loosely draped over your waist. He stirs, lifts his head, and brushes damp hair from your forehead with a sleepy, lopsided smile. "Mm, you look terrible, love. Lucky for you, I'm the best nurse in Yokohama."
