BSD ~ Waffles!! ~ Shin soukoku & Soukoku

6.5 ~ Happy birthday Atsushi Nakajima!!

The shades moved in a rhythm, letting light make its way into the room. Atsushi mumbled out something random, his eyes fluttering open. He couldn't help but feel something was...Rather off.

He sat up, stretching and yawning. He got out of bed, showing off his pastel blue cloud pajamas and slipped into a pair of "Zombie bunny" slippers. He went to the bathroom, brushing his teeth with his usual toothbrush which was painted a sunset color. Squeezing out his Chazuke flavored toothpaste and brushing his teeth.

It never tasted that good.

It was a gift from his dad after he took care of the children at the orphanage. The children there are...Strange. One of them was talking about..Mutating rats. Hmm.

Once Atsushi finished brushing his teeth, he brushed his hair, combing the silver hair, beautiful and shiny. He looked over to the edge of the counter, some weird thing he'd gotten from one of his dad's weird girlfriends. She once took him out shopping...Nice lady really. But he ended up with a makeup bag because she insisted he'd look good with some glow up foundation that'd make his skin look paler.

Once he was done getting ready, he changed into his clothing, the regular school uniform. He packed all of his stuff, his phone with it's sunflower phone case and a small cat keychain and, of course, a pusheen pencil bag.

He ran downstairs, but nobody was there.

"I guess I really am late?" He muttered to himself before running out the door.

School was strange.

Everybody ignored him.

Well, as a side note, some girl he never even met was plain rude to him. She had freckles across her cheeks and long red hair. The conversation went something like,

"U-Uhm...H-Hello.." She muttered. Twisting her hair around the tip of her finger and shifting in place nervously.

"Hi? Can I help you?" Atsushi had asked, slightly confused. At the time it was lunch and she'd just walked up to him.

"N-No! You idiot! I just wanted to say how ugly you look! E-Erm.." Her eyebrow twitched in self discipline, she quickly ran away, leaving Atsushi's expression rather...Priceless. It was blank and confused.

But other than that, he hadn't seen anyone else.

Not Dazai, Chuuya, or Ryunosuke...

When school let out, he went home, starting to get a little worried he didn't see them at school nor at home.

All of the sudden, his phone buzzed. He took it out of his back. It was from Ryunosuke. He answered, holding it up to his ear.

"Did you guys get kidnapped or something?" Atsushi said, worried sick.

"Huh..?"

"Eh?"

"Just hurry to the dorm."

It hung up before Atsushi could really say anything.

He just sighed, and did so.

When he got the dorms, creaking open the door suspiciously.

It was pitched black for a moment until the lights flickered on.

"Happy birthday!!!" Everyone yelled out. It made Atsushi jump back slightly.

"A-Ah...How'd you know it was my birthday..?" Atsushi muttered, regaining himself. He'd almost had a heart attack there...

"It was written in your calendar! It was last minute, since I was going to wake you up like usual. So we skipped school and did this for you!" Dazai said cheerfully, guiding Atsushi along to the main party area. It was in their dorm but it'd been decorated so much it was insane.
