What If I Told You That I Like You

Blue Wharf

*pant* I'm almost *pant* I'm almost there!

It's so...so hard to breathe...*pant* my body is definitely struggling to keep up with all of this...it's reaching it's limit... I should have listened to my dad when he mentioned how weak my body will become if I don't take care of it by working it through exercise but none of that matters right now I need to get there on time!

Please.

I beg you.

Don't attempt suicide we don't know if you'll be safe...please if that's you Dazai...wait for me!

After sometime had passed I had finally reached the Blue Wharf Pier. By this time the sky wasn't a light cyan blue anymore but rather the sky was painted in the shade of a violent gray which hid the sun from human view.

I bend down trying to get back my breath after running for so long but I knew that I had not completed the task of finding him yet so I had to keep going.This break had to be cut short. As I steadied and lifted myself upwards I started to walk towards the busy Pier.

Exotic colourful attractions filled out every inch of the scene. I could see paint tears on the walls, rides and stalls indictating how well loved Blue Wharf was over the years. Little angels were holding on tightly to the delicate aluminium necks of their magical flying horses which gently lifted up and down. Their rosy cheeks and their small smiles made the whole city brighter and more beautiful.

I could sense a warm smell coming from the stall decorated in blue and white tiled patterns. I recognise the smell. Fish and Chips. My favourite seaside treat. I would love to gulp down the warm and juicy Haddock but right now but I must avoid getting too distracted as I head over to the furthest end of the pier where the sea level is at it deepest by the Pier.

I looked around like a mother who lost her toddler at the supermarket. I looked around anxiously as I wasn't sure if I was late or if that was even him.

No good I couldn't see him.

My tears began to roll out of my gleaming [E/C] eyes without permission.

He wasn't here and I wasn't even sure if I were right. I have no answers. As usual I never get any answers. I could only imagine without any confirmation.

I slouched down near a tourist sightseeing telescope. My makeup started to crease and my eyes became heavy.

Suddenly, someone gently touched my shoulder. "Who are you? Why are you touching me?" I tried to put myself back together as I hate having anyone apart from my parents see me in a vulnerable state as I felt like they could use my state against me.

"I was trying to nullify your ability to make you feel better" his voice said in a kind and comforting tone.

"Huhhh? My ability what do you mean I don't have one" I started to wipe away my salty tears as my vision was blurry so I couldn't quite make out the face behind the familiar voice.

As I looked up I could see his dark brown eyes filled with worry as he glared at me whilst crouching. I could feel the compassion from the eyes alone.

"Dazai?"

His face changed into a more serious expression as he heard that name.

"How do you know my name?" he asked directly facing me whilst be crouched on the ground to my level.

The weight that I was carrying today seemed to disperse from my body. My eyes glowed and my mouth line curved upwards with relief.

"I....I am so happy..." Tears appeared on my face yet again but this time they were full of hope. "Is this really real? Have I finally got an answer to one of my questions? I was right??"

Dazai was looking at me with a puzzled look. He didn't understand what I was talking about or why I was crying but he knew that no matter what you were were feeling better.

He kneeled in closer to you and surprisingly gave you a comforting embrace. As he embraced you he whispered into your left ear "I don't know what caused your tears but I am glad that my ability worked on you. And you should smile more. A smile can compliment a beautiful lady like you"
