It had been a long day. Shizuo let out a passive sigh. Watching him from the couch, Izaya quickly jumped up, cupping his hands and making a grabbing motion in front of the bartender as he ‘caught’ his sigh. His quick movement startled the bartender who blinked, now staring at the information trader standing in front of him with his hands closed as if he had captured a lightning bug.
“What are you doing?” Shizuo asked.
“Saving your happiness,” Izaya said. Keeping his hands cupped, he looked around, finding and empty water bottle. Mimicking motions, he placed the ‘sigh’ into the bottle, capping it to keep it inside. Shizuo watched him curiously. “When you sigh like that, it’s your happiness escaping.”
Giving him a skeptical look, Shizuo now looked at the bottle that was holding his ‘happiness’. “You’re going to keep my sighs? What are going to do with them?”
“I’ll keep them and then when enough get collected I’ll make you a smoothie,” Izaya said.
“A ‘sigh’ smoothie?” Shizuo asked.
Nodding, Izaya held the bottle, now sitting down on the couch beside the bartender. “Well this is your happiness puffed away. I will make you a smoothie. Then when you drink it you won’t be losing your happiness because you will be getting it all back in smoothie form.”
Shizuo blinked. Watching him, Izaya leaned over, placing a soft kiss on the bartender’s cheek. “They are your sigh puffs. I’m going to keep them safe for you.”
Hearing his sincerity, Shizuo gave Izaya a soft smile, “Thanks flea.”
