Chuuya Nakahara. A particularly kind hearted kid walked into school as he does any other day. Something had caught the boys attention however. A group of girls were giggling near Chuuya’s locker, some Chuuya had recognized as the ‘popular’ girls. He was slightly taken aback by these kinds of girls in front of his locker but pushed the thought back in his mind as he put in the code.
Left 2 Right 8.. god I hate these lockers. Chuuya thought in his head as he desperately tried to remember his code. After about 2 minutes of the boy hopelessly praying he would remember the code, the old locker door flung open and out spilled what seemed to be hundreds of letters.
Every single one was a light pink as many fell from the locker and on the boys shoes. Chuuya let out a sigh as many people started gathering around him. He leaned down and picked up the letters by his feet and shoved them in his bag. The locker was shut in a slight aggressive manner as he struggled to make his way through the crowd. people were pointing at Chuuya’s locker and laughing at this embarrassing moment. After Chuuya managed to find the only person he actually wanted to speak to after that embarrassing incident, he noticed that his best friend had a huge smirk plaster right on his face like it was drawn on.
Chuuya raised and brow and laughed gently. “What’s with the face ‘zai?” The brunette just dropped the smirk and laughed along with his shorter friend. “Nothing.” The realization then hit Chuuya like a bus. He gripped Dazai’s wrist so he wouldn’t move. “..you. the letters. you did that didn’t you?!” Chuuya accused his very playful friend of something he would most likely do. “You’ll just need to find out for yourself slug.” Dazai said in a tone that didn’t exactly explain anything. A very flat and weak tone. The redhead pulled one of the letters out and decided to read it.
“I like you. A lot. You’re such a great friend and I can’t think of a person who is more there for me than anyone else. Enjoy searching through all my letters slug<3 and happy birthday. I know your birthday is in like.. a year. but think of this as an early birthday present.”
Dazai smiled as he peered over Chuuya’s shoulder to read the letter as well. The shorter male smiled at the letter. He folded it up and put it in his pocket to probably hang on his wall or something.
Chuuya gripped Dazai’s hand and the latter brought the younger man’s hand to his lips. He pressed a small kiss to his sleek and cold knuckles. Dazai smiled at the gesture. The older boy tucked a hair behind Dazai’s ear.
“You should have told me sooner dumbass.” Chuuya said with a smile as they were acting like the dumb sappy teenagers they were. they stood in the empty school hallway as if waiting for something. but nothing came. Empty hallways as they stared into each others eyes.
