First Boonboomger fic! Didn't expect to get inspiration so soon but that throwaway line about Ishiro going to the sauna three times a week gave me an idea. Originally posted 2024-03-26.

Summary: It was supposed to be just another relaxing trip to the sauna.

Also On: Ao3, Dreamwidth


It was supposed to be just another relaxing trip to the sauna. Having time to himself, which was especially needed after some… additions had been made to the team. Much to Ishiro’s chagrin.

Even though he did begin to respect Mira just a little bit, deep down.

The cop though? Who knows how he’d be in battle. His recent attempts at doing his job before the ISA got involved were… quite lacking. To put it in the nicest of terms.

Well, it was supposed to be just a relaxing time. But not for the fact that Taiya. Was sitting. Right next to him.

Taiya in just a towel, and nothing else underneath.

He waltzed on in all coolly, as Taiya did with any and all situations. Smiling and waving with a simple: “Yo Casshiro. Thought I’d get some sauna time too.”

There was all this space in this sauna with just the two of them, plenty of spots to choose from… And yet! He chose to sit right next to him!

Ishiro’s heart felt like it was going to leap out of his throat at any minute. His body was heating up even more than it already was before Taiya walked in. Feeling a pounding sensation in his chest, blood rushing to his cheeks, his head, and even other places— Trying with all of his might to keep his composure.

His thoughts kept racing, until Taiya snapped him out of it with a friendly pat on his shoulder. If anything was close to making his heart physically leap out of his throat, it was that.

“Smart idea of yours to come here three times a week. Just being here makes me all cranked up!” He grinned. “I might have to take a play from your book.”

Taiya made it so hard to not look red as a beet right now, and on the verge of a heatstroke. That soft touch on his shoulder, the sheen across the muscles of his body from the sauna, his charming smile, the genuine excitement in his voice at the prospect of being here each week with him…

Ishiro felt like he was going to explode.

He wanted it so bad, more than anything, and was beyond thrilled Taiya expressed interest. Finally, some quality alone time together again. Just the two of them… But the thought of seeing Taiya’s toned body three times a week formed countless butterflies in his stomach.

There was a small lump in his throat, “That… Would be nice.” Ishiro nodded and smiled back.

The way Taiya looked at him and grinned right there was almost too much for his heart. “Awesome. I’ll be here next time then.”

At the same time Ishiro felt relief, but also his heart racing even more. It was going to be nice, yes. Nobody else interfering with things for them again for once.

But he’d have to get used to the sight of Taiya in just a towel and fast… Lest he’d faint from heatstroke.
