Drunk-Dazed: A Dazai X Reader Fic

Drunk-Dazed: A Dazai x reader fic

Genre: Angst(?), fluff

||Welcome to my first BSD fic! I haven’t written for this fandom at all, but I was craving Dazai content, so I have decided to give it a shot! Maybe I will make more if it gets enough likes…who knows? In the fic, assume that {name} and Dazai have already been dating ^^ Also the whole fic will be from {name}’s pov. [tw for use of weapons like g*ns and katanas. Also mild-ish Cursing (if you consider it a trigger)]||

{(name)’s pov}

I never really liked parties...or huge balls at all, but here I am at a ballroom, people dressed in suits and dresses. Dancing wasn’t really my thing, so I ended up watching others dance while I was standing by the food table, Ranpo standing not that far away from me, devouring all the sweets. I can’t believe I let that maniac Dazai drag me into here. I mean, he does look quite happy. Everyone seems happy…but something feels off…

“Greetings Bella, may I have this dance?” A male voice asked. “Agh! Dazai, you scared me! Shit, well, sure! I’m not the best dancer in the world, but-“ I was caught off my him holding my icy cold hand with his rather warm ones. He exclaimed with a soft smile, “Oh, it’s fine Bella, I’m sure you’re the best dancer in this room!” “No need to be sappy my gorgeous Foxglove” I replied with a small smirk. The man was stunned, blinking twice to register what he had heard. “Foxglove? That’s a new one. I’m afraid you might beat me, Bella!” He exclaimed with a laugh. “Well, it was that or Hemlock. I thought Floxglove was better in retrospect” I explained with a nervous laugh. “Well, isn’t my Belladonna getting smart?” He said with a smile before the song ended, us bowing to each other.

Before I could thank him for the compliment, I sensed something was very off. “{name}? Is something wrong?” Dazai asked with concern. He never really used my name, unless he was being really serious like, business serious. “Ah, it’s nothing Dazai. Why don’t we get something to drink, yeah?” I asked with a smile that I forced onto my face. He looked at me with a brow raised. He then remembered our previous conversation…

[Flashback]

“I’m not sure if we should go to the party. Being stuck in a room for 3 hours? Pass” I deadpanned before handing the slightly wrinkled envelope to Dazai. “It will be fun Bella! Hmmmm…ah! How about we do a deal hm? A quid pro quo, so to speak?” He suggested with a rather concerning smile “Um…sure? Tell me the conditions first and then I’ll decide” I responded, before sitting back down on the worn out couch we got at a garage sale 3 years ago.

“How about, in exchange for you going to the ball with me, which is different from a party, we will-“ “wait, it’s a ball? I’m sorry for cutting you off, but I thought it was a party” I said in surprise “Oh no, Bella. It’s a ball, a pretty fancy one at that.” “A fancy ball? And what will I get in return?” “My love” “Don’t I get that every day?” I asked back “Fair point. I will get you takeout from [favorite fast food place]-“ “Deal. Also if you don’t mind, could I bring my katana? For safety measures” I asked. He shot me a curious expression, “Sure. Why would you want to bring it?” “Just in case anything goes wrong. The invitation looked suspicious to me.” “Ah, I see. Well then, bring it with you” He said with a nod. “Thanks. Also if I suspect anything going wrong, I’ll let you know by asking for something I wouldn’t get at parties” “Understood. I don’t blame you for questioning the invitation. I’m sure we’ll be fine though” he commented before going to get ready.

“I just want to make sure we have a way of protection, in case something does go wrong. I would hate not being able to do anything and just stand there all useless…” he paused and walked to me and embraced me in his arms, feeling my eyes water a little at the confession as well as Dazai’s comforting hug. “You’re not useless, katana or no katana. You’re one of the most strongest [woman/man/people] that I have ever known. Don’t ever think like that, okay?” He asked before kissing my forehead. “Okay. Thanks Dazai, but still, I would like to have a way to protect you. You always protect me, and I’m considering this as my payback.” “I know, just make sure you stay safe yourself, okay?” He asked, his dark brown eyes looked into my [eye color] eyes, with a fiery and burning passion, I buried my face into his chest before mumbling, “I will. I love you Dazai. I love you to infinity and back” His eyes widened a little before softly smiling and murmuring “Me too, Bella. You don’t know how much I really do love you.”

[End Flashback]

He looked at me with worry, also noticing the atmosphere change. I went back to my spot, scanning the area. Everything looked normal, except for a male who looked fairly suspicious. The second I looked away, he slipped behind the entrance door and vanished. I looked behind and noticed Dazai was talking to one of the members. Perfect! I can sneak away and see who that man is. Now all I need is my- I had my katana on my back and only now did I realize my back felt lighter than before. Shit, whoever that person was, he stole it! Fuck, now I need to find out where he is. I sighed, quickly mumbling curses before slipping out of the venue.

It was fairly cold outside, me wearing a suit and forgoing the dress was a good idea. I went to the direction the person went and then I saw a figure holding a katana. He saw me and booked it, running towards a nearby Forrest. Oh, looks like he’s getting away. Well, shit I dashed after him, and it became a cat and mouse game. I happened to be the cat this time. I timed it right and leapt at the figure and tackled them to the ground.

I noticed the figures eye color, reflecting off the moonlight. Why do they look so familiar? It’s too damn dark to see who it actually is. Damn it. I swiftly took my katana back and stood up, pointing the katana at the persons neck. “Tell me your name” I stated, sharply. “I thought you would know who I am” the figure replied with a rough cough. Ah, shit. “Akutagawa, I assume?”

“Yes, you are correct” he responded dryly. “Surprised to see you here. Why all the rush though? The party was just getting started.” I asked with a sly smirk. “Well, you see- Rashomon!” He yelled, seeing the all to familiar thing dart at me. I dodged it and when it attacked me again, I deflected it with my katana. “Nice try, Akutagawa. You’re going to have to try harder to kill me though and get my katana” I teased before swiftly dodging another attack.

“I guess I will give it my all then” He replied before he attacked, the monster darting at me, snapping its mouth. I dodge a few times before one of his hits grazed me and gave me a scratch. It’s just a scratch, even so, Dazai will kill me. I mentally sigh before dodging another attack. I attempted to make a hit before he flung me and I fell into a bush. I quickly got up and dodged again. I wonder where Dazai i- my thoughts got cut off by the sound of footsteps, more like shoes running toward me “{name}! Are you okay?” Dazai asked, his voice full of concern. “Yeah, just got a small scratch” I said holding my arm and wincing in between my labored breathing pattern.

I heard the ruffling of leaves and before I knew it, the port mafia members surrounded us. Shit I mumbled something, getting into my fighting stance. “Looks like we got company, Dazai” I mumbled removing my hand and pacing it on the handle of my weapon. “I’ll try to make this quick” I said with a small laugh.

I heard a gunshot and quickly deflected the bullet, it hitting a nearby tree. “Well, what do you think we should do {name}?” Dazai mumbled “I say let’s book it back, we need to let the others know” I responded with a small smile. “Good idea Bella. I know I can count on you. Alright We book it on three. One…” I noticed the members getting closer. “Two….” I grip my katana handle tighter, my heart racing. “three” Dazai temporarily disabled them before we both dashed towards the venue, the mafia members vision being clouded with dust.

While we ran out of the forest and toward the ballroom place, Dazai noticed the injury I had “I’ll…take…care…of…that…later” Dazai said between breaths. I quickly looked behind me and Akutagawa was about it hit Dazai before I interfered and got hit instead. “DAZAI! GO!” I yelled to him “I’ll catch up! Don’t worry!” I yelled before I almost got hit by an attack. Dazai looked back at me and said “No, I’m not leaving you behind, especially after that injury you got” he stated before getting our opponent off of me. “We should get going, we can talk later” I murmured before bolting to the place, Dazai nodded and followed right behind me.

[two hours after the party. Dazai and {name}’s house]

The fight that Dazai and I had to do was fairly rough, but with the help of the others, it was over fast. The ball had ended an hour after we fought them off. Dazai and I had decided to go back to our quarters early. Dazai has been at it at my injuries for 20 minutes. “You need to be more careful when you fight, Bella” Dazai mumbled after finishing wrapping up my wounds. “Akutagawa has gotten speedier than the last time I or anyone I see has fought him” I defended, crossing my arms in mock anger. “My Bella is mad, oh what ever shall I do?” He asked dramatically. I laughed and playfully shoved him in response. It was moments like these that made life all the more better.

Before I knew it, the clock struck midnight and I was on our shared bed. Dazai was writing something in a journal while I was reading a book. I closed my book, using an old store receipt as a book mark. “Dazai, do you know why he chased me?” I asked, glancing at the man who was laying down, sprawled out like a cat. “He probably wants something from you, that all I know.” He replied with a yawn. “Okay Mr. Whiskers” I joked before he pulled me down onto the bed, my head hitting the soft pillow. “I need to turn off the lights Da-“ “It’s okay Bella, I got it” Dazai interrupted before turning off the lights. “Goodnight, my Bella” He mumbled before burying his face onto my neck, causing me to laugh. “Goodnight my beautiful Foxglove” I said before kissing his head.

That night, the two of us fell asleep to the flaps of the curtain and the soft glow of the moon. A small reminder that even through darkness, there will always be a light, and one can hope that that light will never dim.
