Work Text:
Chuuya was sitting in Kouyou’s brothel brushing his hair, when Dazai comes in and takes a seat beside him. Chuuya already knows it’s him so he pays no attention to the brunette besides him and continues brushing. Dazai just stared at Chuuya obviously wanting too say something. Chuuya notices his stares through the mirror and sighs.
”What is it, Dazai?” Chuuya asks not bothering to look over. Chuuya puts a leave in conditioner in his hair then runs his fingers through it. Dazai moves closer too Chuuya and touches his hair. His eyes widened. He wasn’t expecting it to be so soft.
“I want to braid your hair.” Dazai said, running two of his fingers through Chuuya’s hair.
“Hm?” Chuuya said, finally looking over at Dazai. “Can I braid it?” Dazai asked. He continued running fingers through Chuuya’s hair and played with it. “Do you even know how to do that?” Chuuya asked.
“I’ve done it for Elise a few times.” Dazai replied simply. Chuuya thought for a while until he finally came to a conclusion. “Fine.”
Dazai positioned himself behind Chuuya and grabbed some of his hair, making sections. “So.. why do you want too braid my hair?” Chuuya said looking at Dazai through the mirror in front of him, Dazai had a faint smile on his face which no one would’ve realized except Chuuya.
“I don’t know.” Dazai said simply, still sectioning parts of hair. “It looked fun and your hair is soft so.”
“I do wash it very well..” Chuuya said, still staring at Dazai trough the mirror.
“of course you do.” Dazai said, smiling a bit bigger then before. (still unnoticeable) Dazai finally started to braid the hair. He grabbed a section, put it under another section, again, again, and again. Dazai added little flower clips on the way down the braid for “looks” he said. When Chuuya saw the flowers he smiled, but hid it as well as he could.
Dazai added more flower clips. (For reference he tried to make Chuuya’s hair look like Rupenzel’s hair once those kids braided her hair) “his hair is beautiful.” Dazai said, out loud, accidentally. Dazai covered his mouth and blushed hoping Chuuya wouldn’t notice it. Dazai looked up at the mirror to see Chuuya’s reaction and he saw Chuuya’s face as red as his hair.
Dazai looked away from the mirror, noticing Chuuya was looking at him through it. They didn’t speak for a while, until Dazai broke the silence with two simple words. “Im done.” Dazai said, silently admiring his work.
“Hmm, you didn’t screw it up like I thought you would.” Chuuya said admiring it in the mirror.
”I told you, I know what I’m doing.” Dazai replied, staring at Chuuya’s face, through the mirror. Chuuya smiled a bit and
replied.
”Yeah, seems like you do.” Chuuya held the braid and touched the flower clips gently.
”Why did you decide to grow your hair out?” Dazai asked moving too sit next to Chuuya.
“It’s embarrassing.” Chuuya said looking away from the brunette, turning a bit pink.
“Oh come on!” Dazai said, looking at Chuuya like a puppy who was begging to go home with him.
”Fine! Just stop looking at me like that!” Chuuya said, looking back at Dazai.
“Like what?” Dazai said, confused.
”Like a puppy!” Chuuya said.
“Chuuya thinks I look like a cute puppy?” Dazai said, genuinely surprised and blushing.
”No! Ew! Jeez move on!” Chuuya yelled.
”Just say why.” Dazai said gesturing for Chuuya to continue talking.
Chuuya sighed, blushing a bit more then before.
”Do you remember when I passed out after drinking so much?” Chuuya said, even more pink. “And you said you thought my hair would look good, if I were to grow it out?”
“Yeah, I do?” Dazai said, looking at Chuuya and obviously not getting the hint.
“Well I heard you..” Chuuya said looking down, with a shade of red on his face. “And I took your advice..” Chuuya looked over at Dazai with an embarrassed face.
Dazai chuckled and blushed a bit. “That’s really cute.” Dazai said, unaware of what he just said.
“Shut up!!” Chuuya said, blushing harder.
“Well, I was right.” Dazai said still unaware of what he was saying.
“You think so?” Chuuya said looking at Dazai.
“Yeah I do.” Dazai said.
The duo heard the door open and immediately looked over to see who it was.
Kouyou had walked in and looked at the duo back and fourth. Kouyou started giggling and walked over to the pair.
She looked down at the pair and patted both of their heads with a smile before speaking in a soft motherly like tone.
“You look beautiful lad, and I assume Dazai was the one who did your hair?” The two nodded.
“Well he did a great job. Chuuya would make a great bride wouldn't he?” Kouyou teased.
”No way!” Chuuya is not pretty like a girl!” Dazai protested.
”Yes I would! And I am!” Chuuya fought back, barely aware of what he just said.
”Chuuya’s beautiful and he could be easily mistaken for a girl!” Kouyou laughed.
”Ane San!” “Kouyou San made a short joke!” The two said in unison.
“You two are in so much denial.” Kouyou sighed and sat next to Dazai and Chuuya.
”Can I do your makeup Chuuya?” Kouyou asked teasingly.
”No way!” Chuuya said.
”it’s an order from your superior!” Kouyou said, smiling. “And you would look beautiful in makeup don’t you agree, Dazai?
“Yea totally!” Dazai said, knowing Chuuya would think he’s just saying that because he wants to see him embarrassed.
Kouyou knew Dazai thinks Chuuya’s pretty. “Fine! But only if you do Dazai’s too!” Chuuya said, smiling.
Kouyou laughed and started grabbing makeup supplies. “Of course.”
FIN Kouyou did Chuuya and Dazai’s makeup! (Kaitlyn pls make a skit about that it would be so cute)
