Shadows Of The Twilight (Book-I)

<29>

(Time Skip to night-time)

Emily's pov :

"You know, it's been a whole day since we returned back from the Mafia's base." I said to Dazai who was laying down flat on the bed in his room, reading book and several bottles of beers were there on the bedside table with a few packets of snacks.

"Come on~ it's fine. I will tell them that we got away from the Port-Mafia tomorrow~" He replied drinking another sip from the bottle.

"Quit slacking off! .. Because of you, I am going to get scolded from four eyes!" I frowned crossing my arms.

"You mean Kunikida? ..Forget about him~" Dazai said being totally carefree as he flips over concentrating on his book.

I let out a sigh and then I sat on the bed picking up a bottle of beer to drink it. But thanks to him, it was almost empty.

"Hey!! Atleast you can leave one bottle for me. You already drank seven of them!!" I whined.

"There are more bottles in the fridge if you want to drink it." He said without taking his eyes away from his book.

"Idiot!" I whispered turning my face away and keeping the empty bottle aside.

I almost got lost in my thoughts thinking about the information that we saw in the communication storage room of the Mafia base. About the man who's behind the Seven Billion Bounty price tag on Atsushi.

"You are thinking about your parents again. Aren't you?" Dazai asked in a serious voice as I snap out of my thoughts glancing at him.

"Well, I know your reasons.. and trust me, everything's fine....for now" He said getting up into a sitting position and slamming his book to close it.

"Yeah.. but only..for now---" I sighed and before I could complete my sentence he grabbed my arm pulling me down to the bed as he hovers over me.

First, I was startled when he suddenly pulled me. I was just staring at his smiling face and in a second, Dazai puts his arm beneath my neck pressing his lips against mine. My eyes went wide, the only thing I could feel was a sensation of current running through my veins. I closed my eyes melting into the kiss as I hold his shirt on his shoulders. However, he didn't stop. He continues to melt me with his touch.

It was not our first kiss though, but it was something fascinating, something that was relaxing. His scent was also familiar and intoxicating for me.

We didn't realize the time but the kiss was soon over when Dazai pulls away from my lips, kissing on my forehead again. I slowly opened my eyes to stare at him again and I saw him peacefully smiling down at me.

"Calm down. Everything will be good, I promise" He says and I stared at him for another minute.

The look in his eyes gave me a relief as I smiled wrapping my arms around him and pulling him into me.
My head was burried into his neck when I inhaled his scent, "Thank you, Dazai!" (I whispered)

"It's my duty as a protective boyfriend you can say.." He replied and I could feel him smiling.

His words made me smile too as I hold him tighter closing my eyes.

3rd person's pov :

"Do I smell Miso-Soup?" Atsushi, who was still sleeping on his mattress mumbles under his breathe sniffing with his nose.
