It was easier when it was all a joke, that's for sure. Maybe it's 2 am text messages found at the bottom of a wine bottle now, but at least before the bottle would be shared? But you know, all good things must come to an end. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, and whatever other pretentious references Chuuya was so fond of.
But every now and then, a walk down memory lane isn't so bad.
And Chuuya, for whatever reason, decided to leave his window open? Maybe it's to let some fresh air into the apartment, maybe it's to let the city enjoy some of that smooth jazz that he's inevitably playing. At the very least, that helps Baren out in figuring out which one of these apartments is Chuuya's from the outside.
See, he was outside in the first place, which is the first sign that he was up to no good. The second is that he's wearing remarkably nondescript clothes, right along with his dark run of the mill backpack. The third is that his hood is up, hiding the telltale jing-jangle of his hair bells.
At least until he's clambering up the last steps of the clanky fire escape outside Chuuya's window, yanking down his hood and shaking out his stupid, feathered, ringing ponytail and ripping off the surgical mask that obscured the bottom half of his face.
His eyes are a little manic, a little too bright to believe he wasn't up to something, but mostly just ecstatic. With the bottom half of his face freed, his face is split into a grin as he swings into the apartment through the open window and calls out - ]
Chuuuuu!
[Not that Chuuya will entirely get much of a chance to respond to his sudden, stupid intruder? Since Baren's gonna be quick to slam their lips together in a sudden kiss first.
[Chuuya, meanwhile, has been busy relaxing, fully intending on having a quiet evening-- he's just gotten out of the shower and thrown on some comfortable lounge pants, humming to himself and blissfully unaware of the approaching intruder--
right up until he hears his name called out.]
Ba-- mmph!
[He's tense at first, still too startled to move, but the kiss goes a long way toward soothing his rattled nerves. It doesn't take long for Chuuya to throw his arms around his neck, clinging on to Baren even when he breaks off the kiss to breathe.]
What the fuck do you think you're doing, huh?
[That comes with a little tug at his ponytail, an exasperated huff-- but he's still smiling.]
[There's a jingle of the bells with the tug and Baren's already snickering to himself, apparently quite smug about his surprise. One arm snakes around Chuuya's waist as he hums off-tune and off-key, probably causing a cacophony on purpose.]
Saying hey.
[What else would he be doing? He probably didn't even text Chuuya that he would be coming over, relying more on luck and spontaneity than anything else.
But even as the kiss is broken, Baren's full of way too much energy - probably off some kind of adrenaline high - and pulling back only to press kisses along Chuuya's jawline, playful and teasing.]
[Like they're some sort of old married couple or something? Ugh. Gag. Still Baren's laughing at the thought, obliging with the tilt of Chuuya's head and speaking against his skin even as he follows the map of bare skin down his neck.]
Gross.
I did have a surprise - but I didn't realize I was dating Miss Daisy. Though I guess I shouldn't return to the scene of the crime too soon anyway....
[Give him a second, he just decided that kisses are too boring which is what leads to the brief nip of teeth against Chuuya's neck before Baren pulls away with an amused grin.]
c...ute...??

Baren is a stupid, stupid peacock.
But at least he's never boring.]

What - don't tell me you didn't like it.
[you just broke in through the window baren]

[He tilts his head obligingly into those kisses, silently encouraging him to continue-- yes, definitely keep giving him attention, he loves that.]
Anyway, are you here to drag me out or what, because it better be a real good idea if I'm gonna have to get dressed again.
[don't make him put a shirt on he was going to be lazy...]

I could be convinced to stay if you're cooking.
[feed him.]
