"Chuuya look, it's a shooting star! Apparently when these appear, you can make a wish and it will come true." Osamu Dazai said, pointing his finger toward the black sky.
The black-haired boy sat on the railing while his redheaded companion put his elbows on it, already bored by his friend's behaviour.
"I wish that when the time comes, I will be just as free." Dazai continued.
The boy next to him didn't react to the noisy voice. His silence was his answer. What the hell did he mean by free? And mostly, was Dazai lying? Telling the truth? He never knew.
Like always.
He never knew.
Chuuya started to get angry like he was used to. Dazai was speaking: it was enough for him to get mad at him. But then he looked at his partners eyes. They were shining as much as the stars above them.
And Chuuya's heart missed a beat. That shitty bastard.
Believing in shooting stars felt childish, but Dazai was a child after all. Just like him. For once, Chuuya tried. He believed in the words of that damn Dazai. For once, he trusted the black-haired boy whom he secretly loved.
"Shooting star make your wish comes true? Well then. I wish to be free next to you, you bastard".
What a night. Dazai was smiling. He was truly smiling. And Chuuya never knew why he had that damn smile.
Again.
He never knew.
"You finally got what you wanted, didn't you? Shitty bastard."
He felt the cold wind on his back as an answer to his statement.
Chuuya didn't even notice when his voice came out. He was not a boy anymore: his voice had changed, got deeper, but his eyes were still the same. Blue and alone. Staring at black sky he always looked at with Dazai, he lit up a cigarette. This habit was also a new one.
Dazai really got free. That suicidal maniac really got his wish to comes true. He was now dead, six feet under Chuuya, his newly dug grave was still pristine.
"That shitty bastard really abandoned me, huh ?"
He lit up a new cigarette.
And he still never knew why Dazai left him alone the day after they finally kissed.
Okay ! So I wrote this drabble thanks to an AMAZING artist (Vehivann) on Instagram who allowed me to write it and take inspiration from her artwork. I can't post the link directly of her artwork :/ Don't hesitate to see them, they're amazing :D
It's been so long that I didn't write a drabble or even try to post. I am SO happy to share it. I really hope you liked it !
