Stockholm Syndrome(Dazai X Reader)

The Misery.....

2nd Person’s POV

The three women whose pictures you found were some of his victims. You felt shocked and terrified.. You couldn't believe that Dazai was capable of such cruelty… This is turning into quite a gruesome discovery. It's disturbing for an ordinary person like you…

You tried to keep your composure and continue the search. You scan your gaze into the whole room and find a cabinet, as you look inside the cabinet the tension rises with your discovery.

Inside the hidden cabinet, you found a finger, an ear and a pair of nails placed in a bottle. A gruesome and scary sight. You froze by the sight, you took a quick glance around the place to see if Dazai was around. He could never know about what you discovered. There was an eerie feeling in that place. There was nothing to do but leave immediately. But it was too late.

A loud noise came from outside. It sounded like Dazai was coming back to his room. You had to do something quick or else…. You hide yourself behind the cabinet quickly. You stay hidden from Dazai, as you have no way to defend yourself or fight back.

Dazai entered, his footsteps were loud. You could see he was already getting close. You covered your mouth, fearing he might hear you. The tension rose as Dazai got closer and closer.. Dazai’s footsteps stopped. He must have heard you inside the room.

Still hiding behind the cabinet, you saw Dazai’s shadow getting closer and closer to the cabinet. Soon, the footsteps stopped once again. Dazai must have heard something, you thought. It was only a matter of time before Dazai opened the cabinet doors and found you.

You close your eyes, not wanting to know what will happen next… But then, nothing happened. You opened your eyes and found Dazai's shadow gone. You must have imagined things, must have been scared. You opened the doors of the cabinet slowly.

After a few seconds of panic, you took all of your strength and ran out of the hidden room, quickly closing the door.

Your POV

I felt scared but angry at myself. All I had wanted was to find something to use against him but I was still shocked after realizing that Dazai has been keeping mementos of all his victims in a secret room. But I need to do what's best.. Escape. I’d uncovered Dazai’s secret and I have to be careful. I have to escape before he finds out that I found his secret. He would kill me.....

“Ahh! Damn it!”

“Why are you cursing?” Flinch!

“What are you doing here?!”

“It's dinner time. Been calling you four times but you didn't hear me.” I don't want him killing me…

“WWW-what do we have for d-dinner?”

“Pff… Why are you stuttering?”

“Nope.. I-I am not!” I ran fast in the kitchen and wow I am surprised he cooked a lot! All these foods look so delicious..

“Go ahead and dig in.” He said as he sat and gave me a warm smile.

“Okay…” I picked the fork and grabbed some mashed potatoes, carrots, spinach, rice, chicken and steak.

We both start to eat and the silence is killing me… I am not saying I don't like this way but I have been living with him for quite some time. When we have dinner, breakfast or lunch he always teases me. He always talks a lot but today is kind of different. He's so quiet plus the atmosphere today is a bit different than usual. I feel like something would happen. Something bad…. Oh! I hope my instincts are wrong.

“The food is delicious..” I said as I took a glance to his side. Oh! He's looking at me!

His gaze is mysterious, not only from his sharp dark brown eyes which pierced me, but his stare was full of intent. I knew there was a thought in there.
