It's late and Io really knows he should go to bed. He knows that it's stupid to stay up this late and all it's going to do is hinder his ability to think in the morning and it's all going to be a mess, but he can't seem to drag himself away from his computer. He's been on a roll all day, completely zoned in on his stocks. The only thing that has been able to drag him away from this was Ryuu and meals, but only for a few minutes.

He's staring at the screen, the noise of his mouse clicking was interrupted by the sound of a door opening. Io blinked, suddenly realizing how dark the room was around him and how dim his lamp seemed to be. He sat at the kitchen table, looking up as Ryuu walked in. Looking up for the first time in hours.

Ryuu looks like he has just woken up, he probably had, with his pink hair messily surrounding his head and the sleepiness in his brown eyes. A blanket is draped across his shoulders and his headband missing. "Io?" Ryuu asks with a yawn, shuffling over to him.

"Go back to sleep Ryuu." Io sighs, leaning back in his chair as Ryuu approached.

Ryuu frowns at the retort, pouting slightly. "Alright… When you come to join me." He reaches over and drags a nearby chair to sit next to Io's. "Until then, I'll stay up with you."

Io raises an eyebrow, completely aware that he's being a hypocrite as he speaks. "You've been up all day, you need to sleep."

"I could say the same to you, Mr. Money-Maker. Take a break for a few hours." Ryuu keeps pouting as he leans over to rest his head on Io's shoulder. He glances at the computer screen. "… Just looking at that makes me tired, so I know you must be exhausted."

"Not as much as you think."

"Sure, sure." Another yawn. Ryuu turns his head to nuzzle his face against Io's neck. "Just come to bed already? Please? I don't want to stay up the whole night, but I will if you do."

Io blushes slightly at Ryuu's nuzzling, wondering how he isn't completely used to it by now. He reaches up to run his fingers through Ryuu's hair, glancing down at his boyfriend. "And why would you do that?"

"Because even though you're an idiot, I love you." Ryuu peekes up to grin at him. "Besides, it must get lonely without me here to keep you company. So, I'll stay up with you."

Several seconds of silence passed between them before Io reaches over and closes his laptop. "No, let's go to bed instead."
