Today was a terrible day for Dazai, he woke up with back pain; headache and sore throat! All of this was a combination of misfortune, however... Today was also a rather special day (?)
Today is Blaise's birthday!
And Dazai wants to give him some sweets, but he doesn't know where to get them.
Dazai was in the gang room, just thinking about what to do. Until Dazai's brothers (Fred and George) showed up.
- Good morning snaky! - Fred said with a happy smile-
- You look sad, snaky, what happened? - George asked with an arched eyebrow.
- It's nothing I just... I wanted to give Blaise something special - Dazai said with a face turning red -
Fred and George couldn't help but notice the slight blush on their dear brother's face. They smiled slightly.... Sweet? Normally they would be mischievous and tease Dazai.
BUT, they won't do that, since.... Dazai's insecurity was noticeable (at least to them) so they will help as best they can.
- We can help you, snaky! - Fred said with a determined smile -
- Yes, we can help! - George agreed -
- Hmmm.... Alright then... I wanted to give Blaise some candy, but I don't know where to get it. - Dazai said with a calmer face and willing to listen to the ideas of the "chaos twins"
-------(In the school kitchen)---------------------
Dazai was with the twins in the school kitchen, taking advantage of the fact that it was Saturday and there was no one there during the afternoon. Dazai was surprised, how did he not think of this before? He just had to make the sweets! (Dazai knows how to cook, He took Etiquette lessons With kouyou)
- I never knew you could cook, snaky! - George said quite surprised -
- I learn from my etiquette teacher. - Dazai said calmly, as he was focused on the strawberry cupcakes -
Dazai remembers a time when kouyou told him... "You need to learn how to cook to satisfy your future husband."
Obviously Dazai didn't tell them that. It's not like he's going to get married one day, Mori always says that this type of relationship is inappropriate for a Marfioso and a demon like him....
- Snaky, do you like Blaise? - the twins asked in unison -
.
..
...
....!?
Dazai likes Blaise??? Of course not! They're just friends!! At least that's what Dazai tells himself.
But of course Dazai doesn't like Blaise! How he would like that cute smile, that gentle voice, that worried look.... Maybe Dazai really likes Blaise. Dazai loves those gentle, warm hands when Blaise holds his hands...
- Of-of course not!! I don't like Blaise!...Okay, maybe I like him... Maybe I love him.. Maybe I'm in love...- Dazai said as his face turned redder -
Fred and George froze and just smirked at each other. They were doing that twin telepathy that Dazai hates so much.
-------------(Later)--------------
Dazai was sitting on the gang's sofa with a box of strawberry cupcakes. Dazai remembers a time when Blaise said he loved strawberry and green apple sweets, So Dazai made exactly these flavors (except green apple)
Anyway, Dazai was slightly nervous, thanks to the twins of course. They told Dazai not to worry because they would take care of bringing Blaise to the gang room.
To no one's surprise, Dazai is worried. It's been an hour since the twins said that.
The gang room door slowly opened, Blaise arrived. Blaise looked at Dazai in confusion.
- The twins told me to come here since they said you have a surprise for me. - Blaise said, a little confused because of the box of strawberry cupcakes that Dazai was holding.
- Happy birthday Blaise! I made you some cupcakes... I hope you like it. - Dazai said with an excited smile and his cheeks slightly red.
(In Japan, it is common for people to give sweets or food to loved ones. Just like we see in anime, where one person is hurt, the other brings a daicon full of food. To show affection.) (If I'm wrong, sorry😰😰)
****
Blaise tried one of the dumplings and... He loved it! He didn't expect Dazai to know how to cook. Dazai is always full of surprises.
- That's really good! You cook better than I thought, boss.
- Oh, thanks Blaise!!
Dazai is so happy, seeing Blaise smile while eating something he made himself.... Dazai couldn't help but think to himself...
"I think I'm in love"
