**Soukoku Sleepover** **Pov: Dazai** *A short time after Stormbringer. We’re both sixteen.* ___________________________________ Moonlight washes into Chuuya’s bedroom, highlighting its stark emptiness. A single bed pushed against the wall, a desk with a chair, nothing else to fill the space. I’d forced my way into this sleepover. Now I lie on a thin mat on the cold marble floor beside him. The silence is thick, until his breath catches. He sits up sharply, panic seizing him, one hand pressed to his chest. Cold sweat glistens on his temple. His messy orange hair frames a face tight with silent terror, his eyes darting, unseeing. The sudden motion snaps me awake; my own eyes open to find him unraveling in the dark.
