Chapter Text
Chuuya Nakahara wasn’t the type to develop crushes. In fact he’s never had a crush before, not a real one.
Though somehow he has landed himself in a relationship with Yuan, not that he didn’t like her… in retrospect he found her a little annoying, she was his friend though and eventually, girlfriend.
He didn’t like that though it felt wrong and weird.
Not that he could say that he didn’t like her, they were the perfect couple, the one that everyone admires.
Yuan: the popular, pretty girl, High grades and millions of friends and followers on social media.
Chuuya: the handsome punk that every girl throws herself at, though his height lacks and he gets a lot of shit for it.
So on this Monday morning at 07:34 am Chuuya is awoken by texts and calls from his “girlfriend”
Texts saying things like:
“Babe are you awake?? x”
“Why aren’t you answering..?”
“Are you with that idiot Dazai again!?”
He just sighs and puts his phone on silent, not that it will do him any good as he’s gonna be showered with the same attention from her at school as he is on this early morning.
The sunlight peaks through the curtains, painting strips of the room golden-yellow.
It’s a beautiful day, Chuuya opens his curtains, illuminating his room with sunlight.
He gets up and goes to his closet, picking out some punk-rock band t-shirt and black loose fit jeans, he momentarily ties his hair up while he packs his bag, not wanting his strawberry blond love-lock to get in the way as he packs, a pack of cigarettes, water, a lighter, a notebook where he writes his poetry, pencil case and a wallet.
He puts his shoes on and heads out the door, cigarette hanging out his mouth as he fumbles with his shoes.
On the way to school he spots his best friend/rival Dazai Osamu…
“Hey Dazai! Isn’t this a pleasant surprise” he snarls, nudging Dazai from behind.
“Chibi, ugh a moment away from that annoying girl of yours” the brunette retorts
“Shut up about Yuan will ya?” Chuuya hissed, lighting his cigarette, just for Dazai to take it and flick it away
“HEY! What was that for?!”
The strawberry blond lights another cigarette, in frustration.
“Tut tut tut, bad habits Chuuya” Dazai remarks.
Their walk to school includes the usual bickering and insults.
The cool breeze of the early spring morning, it’s Sakura season so pink petals flutter gracefully in the wind. Adding a contrast to the bright blue sky, sparse of any clouds.
After about 10 minutes of walking and a bitch ass train line, the pair arrive at school.
Chuuya is quickly approached by Yuan…
“Baby! Where were you?” She pouts, wrapping her arms around Chuuya’s neck.
“Sorry, Yuan I overslept” Chuuya replies, trying to pry her off him.
Dazai crosses his arms and looks smugly at Chuuya as he is showered with unwanted attention.
“Someone’s clingy” the brunette teases, that damn smirk on his face.
Yuan shoots him a look and whines
“I missed my Chuu-Chuu!”
Dazai has to restrain himself from laughing, he knows the nickname cringes Chuuya out but he’s never heard it in real life. The redhead looks at Dazai, an… uncomfortable expression on his face to say the least.
Dazai turns around and leaves Chuuya with Yuan, but before he leaves he jokingly blows Chuuya a kiss.
To his surprise Chuuya pretends to catch it and puts it to his heart, then laughs as he knows Dazai’s sense of humour tends to be through flirting.
Yuan and Chuuya begrudgingly head to class, Yuan clinging to Chuuya’s arm.
12:37 pm
Chuuya sits in his Japanese history class, not listening to a word but he gets a note passed to him by his desk mate and friend Shirase, who points to Dazai, signaling the note was from him.
It reads:
よ、ちび
Hey chibi
次のレッスンをスキップして、屋根に行くことはできますか？お願いします
Can we skip next lesson and go to the roof? Pleaseeeee
Chuuya rolls his eyes and scribbles:
何でも、確かに
Whatever, sure
He folds the note up and passes it to Shirase who passes it from Tachihara to Gin to finally Dazai,
The brunette reads the note and smiles.
13:15 pm
The bell rings that horribly jarring ring, signaling for the next lesson.
Chuuya and Dazai walk out with their class 2E
Though they don’t follow with the class, Dazai grabs Chuuya’s hand and they bolt up to the roof where they usually skip.
Throwing the doors to the roof open Dazai twirls dramatically,
“Fresh air!” He exclaims.
Chuuya chuckles and yells,
“Careful you damn idiot! You’re gonna fall off and get yourself killed!”
Dazai laughs and puts his hands on his hips, bending down slightly to Chuuya’s height, tilting his head,
“Chibi cares about me? What a revelation.”
The redhead smirks and pushes his friends head away,
“Yeah as if, go jump”
Dazai pouts and whines
“I thought you loved me chibi~ guess I misunderstood” he turns away, feigning sadness.
Chuuya smirks and sits down against the wall surrounding the roof, making sure people like Dazai don’t jump off.
The cool air paired with the hot sun on Chuuya’s strawberry blond hair is a surreal feeling.
The taller boy sits down next to Chuuya, leaning against his shoulder.
Dazai had always been touchy and clingy with the shorter boy.
After all they had been friends since they were six years old, of course Dazai was gonna be clingy.
They sit in comfortable silence before the brunette perks up.
“So… you and Yuan huh? How’s that going?” He inquires.
Chuuya shrugs,
“She’s clingy as hell but it’s going ok.”
Dazai smirks
“Ok? Or…” he cuts himself off before asking:
“So have you fucked yet?”
The strawberry blond’s face heats up
“WHAT THE HELL MAN!? WHY WOULD I TELL YOU THAT!?” He yells
The brunette bursts out laughing
“Relax, I’m messing with you.”
The shorter boy face palms, still blushing
“I hate you so much sometimes” he snarls.
Dazai nudges him,
“You love me~”
Chuuya rolls his eyes
“Like hell”
The two sit on the roof for the rest of the school day, disregarding their lessons.
They couldn’t care less,
Besides it’s a beautiful day.
They talk and banter and then when the final bell rings that horrible jarring noise again Chuuya is flooded with texts and calls from Yuan…
15:17 pm
Yuan spams Chuuya:
“Baby, where were you 😞?”
“Chuu-chuu?”
Dazai glances at Chuuya’s phone screen, he laughs and remarks:
“You need a break from her.”
Chuuya smiles
“Yeah, but she’s my girlfriend I can’t just ignore her” he’s not exactly protesting though…
16:48 pm
Chuuya and Dazai have decided to go hangout at Chuuya’s house, Yuan tags along, clinging to Chuuya’s arm as they sit on his bed.
Chuuya leans back against the headboard and Yuan immediately buries her face in his chest, he runs his hands through her hair
(Not wanting to seem rude)
Dazai smirks at Chuuya behind Yuan’s back, the strawberry blond shoots him a look, mouthing
“Stop that”
Dazai sits cross legged on Chuuya’s bed, leaning against the wall as Chuuya’s bed is in the corner of the room.
18:32 pm
Yuan has to go home and unfortunately so does Dazai.
Chuuya reluctantly kisses yuan goodbye and hugs Dazai, whispering:
“Be safe shitty mackerel”
The brunette blushes faintly and buries his head in the shorter man’s shoulder.
Yuan taps her foot, irritated
“That’s my boyfriend Y’know” the scoffs.
Dazai pulls away
“I know, I know” he smirks,
Walking down the street
“BYE CHIBI~!” He calls out
