★It was December 24th, Christmas Eve but no one was excited except for Dazai. He was in his office writing something on a piece of paper and next to it he had a small, medium-sized gift box. He finishes writing and places the card under the ribbon on the gift box before getting up and walking down the halls. Some members looked at Dazai in confusion, who was Dazai bringing that gift to? They were all wondering the same thing.★

★Even within the mafia walls, it was still very cold and the snow was heavy outside, so most people were wearing their scarves, gloves and coats.★

★Dazai goes to Kouyou's office expecting to find a certain someone there but when he knocks and enters, he only finds Kouyou★

Dazai: Kouyou-San? Where's Chuuya??

★Dazai asks curiously and confused. Most of the time he could find Chuuya with Kouyou but now he wasn't.★

Kouyou: I don't know, Dazai. Why don't you go look in the penthouse?

★she says as she takes a sip of her hot tea. Dazai nods and runs to the rooftop and finally finds Chuuya there sitting on the ledge★

Hey, Slug! I have something for you~!

★he goes to Chuuya and sits next to him holding the box★

Geez, what are you doing here? It's so cold and freezing! I have no doubt that if I stay here for three more seconds I'll turn into a block of ice...

★He says looking at what little could be seen of Yokohama because of the snow before puts the box between him and Chuuya★

I heard you talking about this the other day and thought it would be a good idea to give it to you...Besides, I think we're past the "partners" stage, right, Chuuya? I can call you my friend now?

★Dazai asks to Chuuya looking at him and tilting his head★
