Hooligan | Dazai Osamu

promise for the trembling heart (high school au!)

I'm so freaking busy wiry school lately, but heyy I'm alive and updating :) I barely check Wattpad rn tbh so I'm sorry if I'm not replying soon, but I'm 100% reading all your messages and comments! I just simply lack time terribly, but I still reply whenever I can :3

Anyway, hope you enjoy this!

"Mm~ (Y/N)-chan~ you smell so sweetly today~" Dazai murmured into your ear

You blushed slightly, wrapping your arms around his neck in a gentle hug as he rested his hands on your waist to pull you closer. You felt his lips, pressing to your temple in the tenderest kiss ever, that left you melting under his touches. His breath was fanning over your cheek and the smell of his cologne filled the air around you, but you didn't even mind since you loved his smell.

Skipping a class after putting on a small show as if you felt dizzy and needed to go to the school nurse with Dazai, who "volunteered" to go with you because of a gentleman he was, perhaps, wasn't the best idea, but you two didn't get to spend any time alone in the past few days at all because of your busy schedules and the upcoming major exams. After all, you were simply skipping literature and it's not that hard to study yourself.

His lips pressed to your forehead in another gentle kiss of his. Sometimes, Dazai could get a little carried away with admiring your face features and he could simply spend an hour, just looking at you and kissing your face as tenderly as possible, while avoiding kissing your lips on purpose. He wouldn't be Dazai Osamu, if he didn't tease you a little bit.

"You know, what I just thought about." You said suddenly, breaking the just-created silence

"What~?" Dazai asked, kissing the corner of your lips

"Once summer holidays start, we need to spend at least one full day just cuddling and kissing at home~" You chuckled "I know, that it sounds silly, but in the moments like this, I often catch myself, thinking, that I wouldn't mind spending an infinity by just sitting on your lap and kissing with you."

Dazai pulled back from your face a little bit to be able to look you in the eyes as his hair trembled because of the soft breeze. Lowkey, you thought to yourself, that going to the roof was an amazing idea just because you could admire him like this.

And how did you even manage to get a boyfriend so sweet and charming as he was?

"Hm~ it's a great idea, I must say~" He replied, pulling you closer again and kissing your cheek "Much better, than all the dates in expensive restaurants or cinemas like in those cliche romantic movies~ Simple, yet sweet~ and more romantic, than all of that~ That's why I love you~"

You blushed slightly. Even after being in a relationship with Osamu for almost half a year now and hearing those sweet three words every day ever since he first kissed you, you still weren't used to hearing them and perhaps you will never be.

All of this still felt like a dream.

You were just a shy quiet girl until you happened to be assigned with Dazai to do a project together. You were so flustered at first because he was incredibly handsome, even despite his bandages, and you were well...you. You didn't expect to even talk to him one more time after finishing this project, but your expectations were wrong because you found yourself in his company quite often after that. After all, Dazai didn't have much friends too, even though he was handsome. Thanks to the quick speed with which the rumors spread at schools, everyone knew that Dazai had tried to kill himself 3 times already throughout his 17 years. That's why not many students were brave enough to be his friends because they were scared of making a mistake and becoming a reason of his next attempt.

Only you and the white-haired boy from the parallel class, Nakajima Atsushi, were brave enough for that. Also, your trio were often seen with Chuuya Nakahara, one of the best students at school, and who often argued with Dazai. Chuuya's skills of making friends were well...a little different from the normal ones. But you could still see, that those two were friends, even though they'll never admit it.

It didn't take long for your friendship to bloom and soon, turn into a first love.

Suddenly, you remembered your first kiss, when you two were the only ones left in the library and when he pressed you to the bookshelf, leaned down slowly and pressed his lips to...

"Someone is a little dreamy today~" Dazai woke you up from your thoughts "What are you thinking about~?"

"I just remembered our first kiss~" you replied, brushing a strand of his hair behind his ear "And how this all started~"

"Really~?" He smiled softly "It still feels unreal, huh~? How I managed to get the best girl of all to be mine~"

"Osamu~"You couldn't hold a smile back "You're making me blush again~"

"Your blush is adorable~ So don't hope that I'll ever stop making you blush~ Not today, not tomorrow, not even in 5 years~" he replied "Sun will always shine, skies will forever be blue and I will always make your heart tremble and your cheeks turn red~"

After that, he leaned closely to you and connected your lips in a gentle kiss, while your mind went almost blank because of it with only one thought, left in your mind:

Did he just promise to be with you forever?
