A/N: Double drabble.
Ryo stepped out onto the precinct’s roof, where Dee was lounging against the wall.
“There you are! I’ve been looking everywhere for you. What’re you doing up here?”
Dee brandished a cigarette packet. “Smoke break.”
“I thought you were quitting.”
“I am, haven’t had a smoke in three weeks, but the Chief doesn’t need to know that. Long as nobody tells him I quit I can still get away with takin’ the occasional break.”
“That’s a bit sneaky, isn’t it?”
“Depends how ya look at it. Sometimes I just need to get some air, clear my head, and bein’ a smoker gives me the perfect excuse.”
“Even though you’re technically an ex-smoker?”
Smirking, Dee shrugged. “I got cigs.” He turned the battered packet over in his hand. “One, anyway. I saved the last one, so I’d always have one in case I needed it. Guess you could say I’m tryin’ to make it last as long as possible.”
“By not smoking it?” The idea had a rather appealingly warped logic to it.
“Exactly! Plus, the longer I go without smokin’ it, even havin’ it right there to tempt me… I guess I’m kinda testin’ my willpower. So far I’m winnin’.”
The End
