Stay With Me αβΩ

Chapter 8

"What happened to your hand?" – Dazai asked.

"It's nothing" – the ginger answered and continues to feed him, he takes another scoop of porridge from the bowl.

Chuuya is now the one taking care of Dazai as if the table is turned.

The other stares at Chuuya's hand covered with bandages "I'm sorry the plan to get you out of here failed, it's my entire fault that you're hurt again"

"No! It's not your fault, it's my fault because of me you almost die" – the ginger quickly trailed putting down the spoon and bowl back to the tray as tears start to form at the corner of his eyes.

Dazai with his quivering hand reaches for Chuuya's face to wipe the tears "You're crying again" – he said with a sorrowful look on his face.

The Omega holds the hand on his face "I'm sorry, I was so worried, I thought I'd lost you forever" – he mumbled.

Dazai still doesn't understand why Chuuya has such emotions towards him, why is he worried about him? Most of his life all the people around him didn't pay much attention to him with the exception of Oda who took him under his wings. It is also a big mystery to the young Alpha what he is feeling for the older Omega, at first he thought that he just admires his beautiful features but somehow it's more than that, maybe Oda was right, he is starting to fall for Chuuya.

With the same hand on Chuuya's face, Dazai slowly rubs his thumb on the other's plump lips and before he realizes it he is gently pulling the latter towards him, towards his face while his eyes start to close involuntarily a typical thing to do before kissing someone. On the other hand, Chuuya is taken aback by the action of the young Alpha, for some reason, his eyes also start to close on their own. Getting closer and closer they both wait for their lips to reach each other, and then there was a knock on the door.

Chuuya quickly pulls back from what seems to be an impending kiss "I-I will go and get it" – he stuttered nervously with a red cheeks as he looks away from disappointed Dazai.

The Omega walks towards the door and as he does "What was I thinking? He almost kisses me!" – he screams inside him before hearing another knock on the door and he opens it "Oda-san"

"I can still smell Chuuya's scent" – Dazai whispered as his eyes are still focused on the ginger by the door.

"Good morning" – greeted the older Beta "How's Dazai?"

"He's awake now" – the ginger answered as the two of them walk towards the bed.

"Thank you for helping me out Odasaku" – Dazai uttered "I'm sorry the mission was a failure"

Oda surveyed his friend's whole body "You should not be apologizing because from where I'm standing you're the one who suffered the most" – he said.

"Oh you mean these?" – Dazai looks at himself perplexed "These are nothing" – he manages to give out a weak chuckle.

Chuuya grits his teeth "What do you mean nothing? You almost die for goodness sake! You stupid piece of shit! What are you, some kind of suicidal masochist?"

"Eh...? Not long ago Chuuya sounded so worried about me and now you are cursing me again"

The two of them start bickering which surprises Oda, he never saw Dazai act like that before, since when did Dazai start to laugh or even smile? Is being close to an Omega can really change an Alpha? He can only speculate inside his head.

"Just this morning he is unconscious, but now he seems to be okay. Based on what the doctor said he is not producing the necessary hormones of an Alpha, did Nakahara-san do this?" – the older Beta wonders as he watches the Omega while arguing with the Alpha.
