"Ahhhhhh...Day, help me!" A loud scream echoed through the house. This caused Day, who had been sitting down in the living room going through the invoices for the shop, to raise his hands to hold his temple.

"P' Day... P' Itt is about to burn the house down," Day's beloved younger brother calls out shortly after. Day put his pen down and followed the loud shouting from the two people. Day sighs heavily before speaking.

"...didn't I already tell you to order food and have it delivered here for us to eat? Why would you waste your energy on trying to make this yourself?" Day said in a harsh tone while walking over to open the kitchen window to let out some of the smoke. Then, he went over to the gas stove and cleaned up the oil that had splattered onto the burner. He looked over towards his younger brother and his lover who were wearing aprons and standing off to the side.

"Well, I wanted to try doing it myself," Itt argued.

"You should know, by now, how things go with you in the kitchen. This kind of thing happens all the time," Day grumbled after bringing Itt to stay the night with him at Night's boyfriend's house. Gear, Night's boyfriend, had to run some errands for his family. Day wanted to order food to be delivered for dinner, but Itt insisted on making dinner himself.

"P' Day, don't blame P' Itt... P' Itt just wanted to make it for you..." Night quickly grabbed Day's arm while coming to Itt's defense.

"There is no sense in saying it, Night... You can't tell someone like that anything," Itt said in a pout before removing his apron and quickly stomping out of the kitchen. Night turned to look at Day with a worried expression. Day raised his hand to rub his younger brother's hair lightly.

"Don't worry. Itt is just like this because he's spoiled. He is very selfish, extremely rude, and can be kind of clueless sometimes, but he's going a little too far," Day said to his younger brother because he didn't want Night to feel uncomfortable.

"I know... but you can't blame anyone but yourself. P' Itt is like this because you've made him that way," Night said with a smile. Day raised his eyebrow a bit.

"Night, why do you say that?" Day asked back.

"Well, if you didn't indulge him so much, things wouldn't have gone this far. P' Itt wouldn't be like this. I know that even though you curse him, you still give into him anyway," Night said immediately. Day smiled slightly.

"I know. Go take a shower and I will take you out to eat. I'm going to go up and find Itt. By now, he's probably thinking of ways to strangle me," Day said with a smile before walking out of the kitchen. He searched the living room but didn't see his lover. So, Day went to search the bedroom because it's the only other place Itt would go. When he opened the bedroom door, he saw Itt was taking a shower. The tall figure walked over and sat on the foot of the bed. After a while, the bathroom door opened. Itt stopped in his tracks when he saw Day sitting on the bed, staring at him. He tried to act like he didn't care as he walked over to the closet to grab a towel and wrapped it around his body.

"Do you want to tempt me like this?" Day tried to ask.

"..." Itt didn't answer him. Instead, he walked over to the dresser and applied some lotion. Day smiled slightly at Itt's gesture because he was bent fully over.

"You act like a woman," Day said, causing Itt to turn around to glare at him fiercely before chunking a bottle of lotion at him. Day managed to move out of the way, just in time.

"If you just came in here to annoy me, go away!" Itt said in a harsh voice. His face was sullen with frustration. He turned to look into the mirror again. Day laughed softly before getting up and walking over to Itt. Itt looked at Day through the mirror with an annoyed expression.
