~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ooka was sleeping peacefully in her dorm room, cuddled up in her sheets. Her eyes furrowed slightly when she felt a constant tugging at her sheets, "Emil, get off my sheets. Sleep in your own bed." The sheets slipped off her legs and she loudly clicked her teeth, "Emil, quit taking my sheets!" She turned and was horrified to see a pajama-clad Dazai grinning back at her.

"Hi, Shoka-chan."

"AHHHHHHH!" She covered her mouth quickly to not wake anyone else in the dorms. She glared at Dazai, "What are you doing here!?"

"Well I thought you'd be lonely tonight." He scooted over and hugged her. She pushed his face away from hers, looking around, "Where's my dog?"

"I put him in the bathroom."

"You need to stop treating my dog that way," She scolded.

"Hmm~" He cuddled up closer to her.

She pushed him away again, "Why are you here?"

He grinned, "I assumed you'd be jealous about me having Sasaki-san in my room. Plus we haven't shared a bed in forever." He wiggled his eyebrows suggestively at her.

She blushed furiously, "As if I'd be jealous of that!" He chuckled at her red face as she tugged the blanket away from him and buried her face in it.

"But you have me all to yourself now~ You should be happy. And you and I both know that you haven't slept well by yourself every single day since we've been here~" He pulled the blanket away.

She didn't look at him directly, "Shut up. You don't have to announce that."

"Well if we commit double suicide toget- "

"No!" She groaned and smushed her face into her pillow, "Just go to sleep. We have work to do tomorrow."

"Hmm. Okay." He cuddled against her and laid his arm around her waist. "Oh, Shoka-chan. One more thing."

She groaned and lifted her head up to look at him, "What?"

He gave her a quick peck on the lips then pulled back with a smile. Her face instantly flushed, "Y-You can't just do that so randomly!? At least give some kind of warning next time!"

"I don't hear any objections. You want me to kiss you again?"

"W-what!?"

"Let me kiss you."

"E- " She couldn't even let a word out before he pressed his lips against hers again. Kissing her passionately this time.

She was reluctant but eventually kissed back, closing her eyes. He moved his hand onto the mattress next to her head and hovered over her, deepening the kiss. She whined, feeling his tongue slide against her bottom lip, asking for permission.

Being the rebel she was, she denied him entry with a grin, gazing up at him mockingly. However, her smile fell when she felt him smirk. A soft pinch on her side made her gasp, giving Dazai the opportunity to take advantage. "Sly asshole... "

The kiss quickly turned heated with Dazai skillfully brushed his tongue against hers. Running out of breath, Ooka pulled away, panting. 

Dazai leaned his forehead on hers, staring deep into her golden orbs, "I love you, Shoka-chan."

She looked up at him as he stared back intensely. Knowing he was waiting for an answer, she leaned up and gave him a small kiss. Blushing, she replied, "I-I love you too, Osa-kun."

He smiled lovingly at her, "Been awhile since we've done anything."

She nodded slowly, "Well we've been busy all the time and trying to keep this on the down low... "

"Allow me to make up for lost time." He kissed her cheek, slowly moving down to her neck. She gasped and squeezed her eyes shut.

"O-osa-kun! Wait- St- Ah~!"

Ooka shot up out of bed, panting. Her eyes darted around the room, finding no one but Emil in the corner. The pup looked at her, perplexed at her panicked state. Her face grew increasingly red in embarrassment.

She looked at the time. It was nearly 5 o'clock in the morning.

"There's something wrong with me... " She muttered, mortified. She sluggishly crawled to her bathroom to get ready for the day. Emil was thoroughly confused and tilted his head at her actions.

The ravenette stared at her bike, becoming slightly red again. She was already running late since she decided to spend her time playing video games to keep her mind busy. If she rode her bike over to the office she might make it in time for the meeting, but her mind was still racing over the dream.

"Screw it, I'm walking over." She sighed and began walking.

As she strolled down the street, she thought of ways to get her head out of the gutter. She thought about things that made her happy, like food, sweets, her friends, Emil, books, Dazai...

She held her head and screamed, not caring about the nearby pedestrians looking at her weirdly. Her thoughts just kept going back to Dazai and her almost intimate dream.
