After they pull away and Chuuya picks him up bridal-style to walk him back to his room, Dazai cannot help but think that maybe this was always how they were meant to be. (37/37)

Chuuya was the beat of his heart, the resonance in his soul, and the air his lungs breathed. Feelings suddenly clear.

So, beneath the watchful gaze of the heavens and the time, they lean in, carefully meeting in the middle in a tender kiss, embracing each other with timid smiles. (36/37)

Too skittish to come close but too tired of living in the shadows.

He gulped. Suddenly, the mere thought of leaving Chuuya behind in this world unsettled him. No, Chuuya wasn’t a nobody anymore. Chuuya wasn’t a friend, either. (35/37)
February 28, 2025 at 2:37 PM
Is he a friend or someone more than that? Would life really permit him to live by Chuuya’s side?

As Dazai gazes into Chuuya’s bewildered expression, he can’t help but think about how he had wanted to leave Chuuya behind when they first met. (34/37)
February 28, 2025 at 2:37 PM
He could feel Chuuya’s breath mingling with his own.

What is the embrace of a lover like, he often wondered? Is it safe like this? What is romance like? Is it dancing the night away at a ball and ending the night with a kiss? Who is Chuuya to him? (33/37)

Dazai takes his hand, his heels shaking beneath him like a newborn foal as he stands, and he stumbles forward into Chuuya's arms. He gasps, once again gripping Chuuya by his shoulders for support, their faces inches from each other again. (32/37)
February 28, 2025 at 2:37 PM
Chuuya smiles, hesitant to remove himself from Dazai’s side at first, but he stands, extending a hand for Dazai to take, and that’s when the nearby church bells ring, signaling the stroke of midnight. (31/37)

“I do,” he says, turning his face away to hide his flushed expression, wishing for one of his cloaks to magically appear so he can hide beneath its hood. (30/37)
February 28, 2025 at 2:37 PM
“But I’m pretty strong, you know. Don’t worry. I won’t let you fall.”

Chuuya leans forward to press their foreheads together and quietly asks, “Do you trust me?”

And really, how could Dazai say no? The brunette’s cheeks redden, and he nods shyly. (29/37)
February 28, 2025 at 2:37 PM
He cringes, his mouth moving faster than his brain for once. His sleepiness must be showing through all his mistakes, but it doesn't seem to bother Chuuya.

“I mean, I can’t have you spraining your ankle. We did dance a lot,” Chuuya says with an apologetic smile. (28/37)
February 28, 2025 at 2:37 PM
He almost doesn’t catch Chuuya’s question; he’s focused on the feather touches on his skin that make him feel dizzy, as if drunk on wine, soul soaring whenever they make any contact.

“Do you need me to carry you to your room? I don’t mind.”

“You…would?” Dazai wonders out loud. (27/37)
February 28, 2025 at 2:37 PM
Below, he could hear the sound of retreating steps as guests walked the garden towards the Castle’s entrance, ready to begin their trips home.

Beside him, Chuuya frees his hand, lifting it to stroke Dazai’s cheek in a tender touch that makes Dazai shudder and hum happily. (26/37)
February 28, 2025 at 2:37 PM
His eyes closed briefly as he listened to the background music that had slowed down, a gentle composition of string instruments serenading its remaining visitors. (25/37)
February 28, 2025 at 2:37 PM
Dazai mumbled, “I want to stay a little longer. If I walk now, I fear I’ll twist my ankle in these shoes.”

Dazai nuzzled closer in the embrace until his nose settled on the crook of Chuuya’s neck, eyes drooping tiredly. (24/37)
February 28, 2025 at 2:37 PM
A man full of life and comfortable like a crackling fire after spring’s rainy season.

Chuuya smiles down at him, and then leans close to nuzzle against Dazai’s curls, resting his chin on top of his head. Dazai blushes.

“You seem tired. You should get some rest now.”

“Not yet…,” (23/37)
February 28, 2025 at 2:37 PM
Dazai rested his head against Chuuya’s shoulder and sighed in relief at his support.

He had a lot of fun (though his feet would mourn him in the morning), much more than he thought he would when he was invited to attend. He tilts his head, glimpsing at Chuuya through his lashes. (22/37)
February 28, 2025 at 2:37 PM
They sat silently on a bench, a slight blush on their cheeks as they cooled the droplets on their skin. Dazai was unsure who made the first move, but soon, they were sitting close, one of Chuuya’s hands around his waist. (21/37)
February 28, 2025 at 2:37 PM
He wasn’t a good dancer, but Chuuya was in his element that night, a true gentleman and chivalrous.

After many hours of dancing and socializing, Chuuya led him to a balcony, away from prying eyes, to rest and relax. (20/37)
February 28, 2025 at 2:37 PM
Hands were held, their bodies so close that Dazai could see his reflection in Chuuya’s blue orbs. He swore he almost lost himself in them, gripping Chuuya’s shoulders tightly to remain present…or stable. Perhaps a little of both. (19/37)

**************

They had swayed to music all evening in a suit and gown. Chuuya asked him for a dance, conducted him through a waltz, patient during Dazai’s missteps, and grinned with him when they decided to dance at their rhythm rather than the song’s tempo. (18/37)
