Lucky and Unlucky {Dazai x Reader}

Chapter 11: Birthday Hangout

Me and Dazai walk out of the bank.

"Too bad we couldn't celebrate your birthday...." I say disappointed.

"Well, we don't have to end today right now." Dazai says.

"What do you mean-"

He grabs my hand and runs out into the street.

"Dazai, slow down!" I yell, nervously.

"Oh, c'mon Y/n! Learn to calm down" Dazai yells back and runs faster.

We stop at a movie theater.

"Really?" I ask, "The movies?"

"Not just any movie." He says, "A scary movie!"

We walk inside and find a movie to watch. We find a seat and Dazai grabs his popcorn.

I sigh and the movie starts.

~Time Skip~

"I don't ever want to go swimming at night. Ever. Again." I say.

"It wasn't THAT scary." He said.

I rolled my eyes and checked my phone for the time. Midnight.

"Okay, we should get going..." I say.

"You're right." He sighed. "But there's just one more thing."

~Time Skip~

"Woah...." I exclaim.

We were on top of a building.

"It's one of the best views of Yokohama." Dazai told me.

I walked and leaned on the rail. I felt the cold breeze meet my face.

I see Dazai from the corner of my eye lean on the railing too.

"How long have you lived in Yokohama?" I ask.

"All my life." Dazai says. "How long have you lived in America?"

"Also all my life." I say.

"So....can you teach me at least ONE curse word?" Dazai asks.

"No ."

"Please-"

"Never gonna happen Dazai."

"So mean!"

I look at the view, I started thinking about home. Where I used to do all nighters almost every night, and me and F/n would always call each other in the middle of the night and do the dumbest stuff. And when my siblings didn't grow older and we never had to leave.

I sigh and look down on how high the building was.

"What's on your mind?" Dazai asks me.

"What?" I ask looking at him.

"What are you thinking about?"

I look back at the view and smile. 

"Home. In America."

"You must really miss it, don't you?"

"Well, I miss my family if that's what you mean."

"I see." He says.

It was awkward silence for a few more minutes. 

"What was your job before you moved here?" He broke the silence.

"I actually was a student at college for about 4 years."

"Oh, really?"

"Yes."

I then see something move across the sky.

"A shooting star!" Dazai exclaims.

"Huh?" I look up, "That's not actually a shooting star...."

"What do you mean?" He asks.

"Shooting stars are actually meteors." I explain, "They just burn up in earth's atmosphere, making a streak of light across the sky."   And how the hell do I know this stuff?!

"Thanks for ruining the fun of it...." Dazai grumbles, "I'm still making a wish ."

I look at the sky and close my eyes.

I wish I could solve all of my problems.

I open them.

I look at Dazai, his eyes were still closed. He once he opened them, I look away.

We look back at the sky.

"Hey, Y/n," Dazai says.

I look at his face, he looked like what he was about to say was important.

"Yes, Dazai?" I ask, feeling butterflies in my stomach. He grabbed my hand and looked into my eyes.

"Would you...."

OH MY GOSH, IT'S HAPPENING!

"Commit double suicide by falling off this building with me!" He exclaimed.

I blink twice in confusion and look at him.

"Huh?" I asked.

"C'mon no one's watching!" He encouraged.

".....no." I say, making him let go of my hand.

"What?" He whined.

"You think falling off a building is going to solve your problems?" I ask.

".....yes?" He says slowly.

I sigh.

You then remembered how late it is.

"We should probably get going." I say.

~Time Skip~

The whole walk back was silent. Only the sounds of our feet walking on the concrete. I look up and see the apartments.

"Well, goodnight." I mumble.

"Goodnight." He replies blankly and walks to his apartment.

I walk fast to my apartment.

I walk inside and close the door as slow and quietly as I could. Then the lights turn on.

"Where have you been?" I hear Akiko say.

I turn around and see her in a robe. Her arms were crossed and leaning on the kitchen door frame.

"Uh...."

"Do you have any idea what time it is?" She asked me. 

"No...." I mumble.

"It's 1:00 in the morning." She says, "Go to bed."

I say nothing and walk to my room and get ready for bed.

I lay on the futon in my pajamas and stare at the ceiling.

But he looked like what he was going to say was important...... Why would he sacrifice all of the fun time we had just to ask to commit suicide? How does that even work?! Wait....I haven't even known him for a month.

I sigh and close my eyes. Maybe if I wake up everything will be back to normal........
