A small glimmer of hope

Ch. 16 (we will be together forever and always)

(Chuuya's pov)

Dazai's been unconscious for a week and a half, almost two weeks.

I still can't believe he likes me back...but then again the way he did it was definitely the 'dazai way'.

"I- love you...too-"

I blush at the thought...before composing myself and going back to being irritated

Like- the hell?! He can't just tell me he likes me back then go and die!

The doctors said that he might be out for a week or two, but ma said it might be longer. Apparently he lost a whole lot of blood and was injected with a mixture of lidocaine and some other foreign substance or substances that were to abstract to pinpoint, so she doesn't know what it's effects are- and what they are doing to his body.

This news worries me...I- can't even concentrate on school...he was going to help me with the material...God damn it! Everything I think about goes back to him! He's a pain in the ass- I swear.

I can't get rid of him even when he's acting like sleeping beauty, Tch-

I snap out of my thoughts as a person- no wait it's that tachihara...him

I avoided him for a reason...he gave me bad vibes. He's nothing but trouble, no clue why but- I just know I need to stay away from him.

"Hey Nakahara-kun, do you remember me?"
The male said as he approached me

"Tch- yeah. Is there something you need?"
I ask in a rude manner

"Uh- erm...not really I just wanted to get to know you- y'know..." he said slightly embarrassed, as he rubbed the back of his head

"Sorry, I have to much going on right now to talk and make friends." I said clearly give off the vibe
'leave me alone, I don't wanna socialize'..y'know?

"Oh- is it because of dazai-kun? I heard you two were close...but he hasn't been to school in a like- a week or two..." he trailed off

"No..I just have a lot of school work, and who cares about that idiot." I click my tongue in annoyance

"Oh, come on then. I can help you with your school work! I'm pretty good at the current curriculum. Just give me a chance, nothing more." The red head said getting more annoying by the second

"No- I just said-" I got cut off by a raven haired male. Dostoevsky Fyodor, the man Osamu told me to watch out for. Apparently he's nothing but trouble and just wants to get to dazai- for some odd reason. Dazai had said that Dostoevsky will use everything he can get his hands on.

Best to be careful around him

"Tachihara-kun, if you would be so kind to leave. Nakahara-San isn't in the mood for your antics."
Fyodor said with a threatening smile

"Ah- Fyodor-San so sorry to bug you. I- I was just about to leave. Goodbye Nakahara-kun, thank you for are chat." Is all tachihara said before almost running away

"Dostoevsky-kun? Sorry to tell you but...I was doing just fine on my own. There was no need to intervene." I say now turned towards the raven

"Nakahara-san, did dazai-kun tell you my name? And well- you did seem to have some trouble getting rid of that- thing. So I thought it was only right to help and introduce myself, although it seems you already know my name...I've seen and heard that you and dazai-kun are close? Do you happen to know where he is? I couldn't find him- and we were supposed to talk about a topic that doesn't need to be discussed at this very moment." Dostoevsky replied, still smiling
