"I left you for a reason."[Soukoku]

Part 10

Dazai's POV
I sat on my couch, my mind just blank. I couldn't get Chuuya's words out of my head. It's like it's haunting me for my past mistakes. I had no choice, I promise you Chuuya, I love you. I always have. I just clenched my fists remembering what had happened the day before my graduation.
No. I won't go to that memory. I don't need it resurfacing. If it does, I'll be up all night. I let out a long sigh I didn't even know I was holding in. I closed my eyes, tiredness taking over me.
KNOCK, KNOCK.
"Goddamn it." I mumbled. I sat there a minute hoping the person at the door would just leave but I jumped at the sound of pounding on my door. "Osamu Shuuji Dazai. If you don't open this damn door, I'm going to kick it down!" Oh shit. I jumped to my feet and ran to open the door for Ikuto.

Once I did, I received a frown from my older brother. I just nervously chuckled opening the door wider so he can enter. He did, taking off his shoes then walked inside making his way to the living room. I just sighed and closed the door. I walked towards Ikuto who was now sitting on my couch. "Welcome back to Yokohama." I mumbled sitting right next to him. "Glad to be back. But, my question is, what's with you and Chuuya? And did you know anything about him and that Dostoevsky guy?" I froze hearing Chuuya's name come out of his mouth, especially Fyodors following right after. Something definitely happened. "Don't worry, Chuuya's safe. Ango put his men to stay at his apartment complex for at least a week until we get Fyodor and Nikolai to the facility." Ikuto finished, the worry slowly leaving my shoulders.

"What exactly happened?" I couldn't help but ask. Ikuto just gave me a small smile before ruffling my hair and bringing me into a hug. "Oh how you've grown, little brother." He mumbled, I was just confused but hugged him back having that I haven't seen him in three years. "So? What happened?" I asked hoping to get a direct answer. He ended up explaining the whole thing and I couldn't help but feel sick to the stomach. Chuuya went through that even after I said I was going to keep him safe. Oh how the hell am I supposed to get back with him if I can barely keep my promises.
*2 weeks later*
"Get off of me!" Goddamn it. I took off my headphones and walked towards my door. I walked into the living room to see Ikuto and Aki wrestling on the floor while Ango and Oda just watched. The kids were also watching it happen while the tv was playing in the background. I deeply sighed, rubbing my temples in the process. "Aki! Ikuto!" I yelled out making Ikuto and Aki stop. "It's literally Thanksgiving and you guys are fighting?! Really??" I yelled out my patience thinning by the second. "It's not my fault! Ikuto here is being a bitch just because I said my boyfriends coming over!" Aki yelled out making me freeze. "Boyfriend?! Wait Aki you can't just bring this guy into Ikuto's home and expect him not to be mad! You could've at least gave him a heads up." I said, Aki slowly getting off of Ikuto. "How about you mind your own business bandaged freak." Aki mumbled now fully off of Ikuto only to be kicked down to the floor by him. "I told you to stop calling him a freak." Ikuto said hearing a groan from Aki. Ikuto stood up and walked towards Oda and Ango who were now setting up the table. I sighed and noticed that there was an extra plate. "Ikuto? Why's there an extra plate? There's going to be only eleven of us." I asked to which Ikuto turned to me with a nervous smile. "Yeah.. about that.. Since Chuuya doesn't have anywhere to go this thanksgiving I may or may not have asked him to come for dinner.." My eyes widened, my stomach churned at the thought. "Wait what?! What about Kouyou?! She couldn't take him in?!" I yelled out to which Oda and Ango sighed. "Mr. Izumi said he wanted his thanksgiving to be with only Kyouka and Kouyou." Oda said making me look at him disbelief. "But-!"
"Osamu. You are an adult, act like it." Aki butted in turning to walk away as I glared at her . "You should follow your own advice and mind your own business Aki." To that, she turned on her heel and was close to punching me in the face until a knock came to the door. Everyone turned to the door and Aki's face glowed. "That must be him!" She immediately ran to the door ignoring Ikuto's complaining. Aki came back jumping around with a tall man right next to her. He was taller than me but shorter than Ikuto. I mean Ikuto is 6'6 so that's something. "Everyone! This is my boyfriend, Kurai Hayashi." Aki yelled out as you can clearly see Ikuto look him up and down. Aki and Hayashi walked over to Ikuto first. "Hello. Kurai Hayashi sir. It's a pleasure to date your daughter." I almost bursted out laughing. Does he think Ikuto is our dad?! "Sir..? Daughter..? Do I look that old?!" Ikuto yelled out in panic turning to Oda and Ango. That was it for me and I dropped to the floor losing it. "Oh I'm so sorry! It's just you're really tall and I assumed you were Aki's father!" Hayashi yelled out trying to reassure Ikuto. Aki just sighed rolling her eyes. "Our parents haven't been able to make it for a good five years so you most likely won't see them ever." I said walking towards him, hand out ready to shake his but Aki smacked it away. "Don't touch him. I don't know what kind of stuff he has." She mumbled to which Hayashi just looked at her weird than back at me with a slight of guilt written on his face as he pulled his hand back.

Ikuto looked at Aki, anger written all over his face but it left his face as soon as Oda whispered something in his ear. "Right. That's Osamu , the youngest f you couldn't tell," She said glancing at me before turning her way to Ikuto, Oda and Ango. "And this is Ikuto, the middle child and his two husbands, Oda and Ango." Oda and Ango bowed and slightly waved at him. Hayashi did the same thing but there was something he was aching to say, it's written all over his face. "You're aching to say something so just say it." Ango said sighing and fixing his glasses. Hayashi jumped at that fact, a dust of pink painted on his cheeks as he rubbed the back of his neck. "Um how does this work in general..? Like how does the sex work too? Isn't kind of hard?" Everyone froze, hell even I did.

Ango's face flushed red, Oda only had a small blush on his face while Ikuto just stood there, a smile plastered on his face. He looked pissed not going to lie. "It's not so hard actually, see, I'm in the back while Oda's in the front and Ango is-" Before Ikuto can finished Aki and Ango both slapped him in the face. Wow, that must of stung. "Shut up!!" The two yelled while IKuto was on the floor rubbing both his cheeks. "He asked a question!" Ikuto whined while Oda and Ango just sighed while Aki huffed a breath pulling Hayashi into the living room. "Darling, that stuff is not meant to be told to others.."Oda said crouching right in front of Ikuto and cupped his cheeks placing a quick kiss on his lips. Gross. "Get a room you two-" Ikuto glared at me before grabbing Oda's face and kissing him passionately right in front of me. Before I could traumatize myself anymore I walked away but stopped as I heard a knock on the door.

Shit.

Yeah... I was gone for like a month so sorry about that.. um.. I was busy is what I would like to say but I didn't have anything to besides my finals that ended like a week or two ago. Um so sorry about that. I'll be sure to get part 11 out as soon as I could. I just haven't had much motivation to work on this so sorry. I will try my best to get it out as soon as possible.

Stay safe!
