" hey ! wait up ! "

i ran behind my ex - coworker , chuuya nakahara , as he was trying to make his way home . he would have preferred that , but i , of course , had other plans for his evening . 

he turned around , glaring at me . i dared to smile at him , only to get a muttered response of " get that stupid fucking grin off your face , bastard . " i pretended not to hear that . besides , i knew how hostile he could get . and in the past where it may have hurt , i got used to his little insults . 

" what are you doing on this fine , warm sunny evening , dearest nakahara ? " i said in a dramatic tone , winking at him . 

" nothing . " he mumbled , kicking a small stone , watching it go ahead of him , before he looked up at me " and , it's winter , you absolute imbecile . "

i slowly reached behind me , plucked a single rose from it's bush and gave it to him . " i uh .. i love you . " i stated quickly . 

he seemed surprised , but then there came the words that changed my life forever . that got me sick . 

" dazai .. i don't like you like that . " he looked at me for a moment , then disappeared from my sight .
