Rin had gone to pick Nuriko up at work. It wasn't like he could drive a car or anything, and it wasn't like she needed walked home, but he could tell she liked it when he showed up, maybe just because it let her know he'd thought of her, maybe because it made it easier to see how his own day had been. It often seemed like both were true.

They;d stayed at Semele's for a half hour afterward while Rin worked his way through a cheeseburger and french fries, maybe more than he should have been spending money on still in his situation without a steady job, but he'd wanted the celebratory food. It put him in a good mood, one that lasted the entire way to Nuriko's apartment, where he held her hand, swinging them both back and forth in pleased silence while she talked about her day, until she needed her hands again to unlock her door.

"It's been a little while since I've been inside your place," he observes without motive, a sincere realization. "Sorry. Thanks for bringing me home the other night, after the concert. I probably shouldn't have drank anything just because people handed it to me. I might get into trouble that way next time."
