"How do i look ?"
Dazai asked as he adjusted himself in his black suit but at getting no answer, he turned and bursted out in laughers at his lover struggling with his tie.
"I hate ties !!"
"Come here, i will adjust it for you but just don't get angry today ."
"I'm not promising anything ..."
Chuuya pouted as he let the brunet adjust his red tie for him then looked back at the glass when he finished.
"How do i look ?"
"Hmm, as short as ever~"
"You just said you didn't want me to get angry today so make some fucking effort !"
Chuuya stopped shouting when the other pulled him to his embrace hugging him tightly while grinning.
"Okay, okay, i just thought you were nervous that's why i teased you to ease you so calm down ..."
"I ... i'm not nervous ..."
Dazai smiled at his lover's insincerity then handed him the car's keys.
"You drive today ."
"Of course i drive, i don't want you to get us killed with your shitty driving especially today ."
They walked out of the hotel room they were in with Dazai's hands on Chuuya's shoulders massaging them.
"You need to calm down and enjoy the day, Chuuya, don't be so tensed up~"
"I have the right to be nervous since this might either be my best or worst choice in my life ... but please, just make sure to say 'Je veux' okay ?"
"What if i get to nervous and i mix between 'Je veux' and 'Je ne veux pas' 's meanings and end up saying 'Non' instead ?"
"Then i wouldn't be surprised, i just promise that if you do that, only your corpse will go back to Japan ."
"Meanie~ how can you even think i would mix between them ?"
"I have known you long enough to know that i should expect anything from you ."
Dazai didn't answer as they left the building but he instead focused on the bright blue sky above them.
"The weather is so nice in France compared to Japan in this time of year ."
"Not the one i wanted though, Paris is the city of Romance so if it rained, it would make the whole atmosphere more romantic but guess it won't with this blue sky ..."
They went on Chuuya's new car or 'red baby' he would say that he bought right before coming to France. He wanted it to be pink just like his motorbike but at Dazai assuring him that he was never getting on it with his most serious face, Chuuya opted for this red one instead.
"I'm still wondering who is that person you know who was able to get everything arranged in such a short time since i was pretty sure it would take us longer and even made some plans for us as we wait but that person ruined everything ..."
'We are meeting him minutes later so i better tell him ...' Chuuya thought as he started the engine then glanced at the brunet.
"That person's the French Mafia's boss and a friend of mine ."
"And when did you befriend him ?"
"When you left the Port Mafia, i spent four years after that in France that's when i met him and i guess i did well by befriending him ."
"Your relationship with him is kinda bothering me though ..."
Dazai wore a serious face as he glanced at the ginger not expecting him to smile.
"I would have questioned your love for me if it didn't bother you but really, he's just a friend, you know i'm not the type to lie about such things, especially today ."
"It's okay, i know Chuuya is the most loyal person in the world but showing some jealousy and possessiveness is never that bad between a couple~"
"You're right ... and there he's ... you see the two standing there, he's the one wearing a hat and the other is his subordinate ."
"A hat ? I see why you two are friends .."
Dazai let out a chuckle as they went out of the car then headed to the two waiting for them. He felt grateful that they opted for English instead of French since as much as he tried to learn it (At first only to read Chuuya's poems then actually for his missions .) He couldn't bring himself to get used to it. He still remembers how much his struggled at memorising his vows.
The Boss of the French Mafia introduced himself as 'Albert Camus' while his subordinate was 'Louis Mercier' then they all headed inside the building there, it was the council offices.
Albert only needed to give his name to one of the officers there for the latter to leave whatever work he was doing and take care of their case as he led them inside a large room with empty chairs and a stage where there was a table and 5 seats.
Dazai and Chuuya took the front seats while Albert and his subordinates took the side ones before Chuuya turns to his friend.
"That was so fast, it hasn't even been a week since i informed you and you already got everything arranged ."
"I thought you knew me well enough to know that this is more than easy for me, Chuuya ."
'He doesn't mind revealing his true identity in such a place, this guy sure is confident ...' Dazai thought then turned his attention to his lover as he grabbed his hand then gently caressed it.
"Are you nervous ?"
"Somehow ... but i already made my decision so i can't back away now ."
"I wouldn't let you if you tried~ even though i know you won't since Chuuya loves me more than anything~"
"Take away that smirk, it-"
Chuuya didn't get to finish his line at the Mayor joining them then directly getting to his work as he took his seat then opened the files he had with him.
The ginger was really getting nervous now and the mayor introducing himself then the reason why they were there before addressing him didn't help at all 'Why is he so impatient ?!!! And why am i the first ????' He thought that since Dazai was the one sitting closer to the mayor then he would start with him but now it was too late to complain as he heard the mayor say.
"We are gathered here today to witness the marriage of Dazai Osamu and Nakahara Chuuya. As you come here to exchange your vows of marriage, we know that you come with the full realization of both the joys and the responsibilities that will be yours together. I have now a question for each of you ..."
'We are getting married !!! We are really getting married !!!' Chuuya's mind screamed as the mayor focused on him.
"Nakahara Chuuya, you have chosen Dazai Osamu to be your life partner. Will you love and respect him? Will you be honest with him always and will you stand by him through whatever may come ?"
Chuuya's mind turned blank for a second before he feels Dazai's hand on his again. He looked up at him and his gentle smile, yes, this was the man he wanted to spend the rest of his life with.
"I will ."
He didn't wait to pull his hand away of Dazai's grip just to be the one grabbing the brunet's hand now softly caressing it at the mayor adressing Dazai this time.
"Dazai Osamu, you have chosen Nakahara Chuuya to be your life partner. Will you love and respect him? Will you be honest with him always and will you stand by him through whatever may come?"
A soft smile found it's way to Dazai's lips as he stared at the gentle hand on his then on his side at his future husband, yes, this was the one he wanted to be paired with for the rest of his life.
"I will ."
The mayor let them a moment as he noticed them giving each other a look full of love and care before he interrupts it.
"And do you both promise to make the necessary adjustments in your personal lives in order that you may live in a harmonious relationship together ?"
"We will ."
Dazai and Chuuya said it simultaneously still staring at each other then after the vows, Dazai pulled a small red box as they stood up after the mayor asked them to wear the rings.
Dazai took the smaller ring in the box then pulled Chuuya's left hand and put the ring on his ring finger as he kept staring at his angelic smile the whole time.
Chuuya was then the next one as he pulled the bigger and last ring that he put on Dazai's ring finger before he looks up at him with both of them wearing their most genuine smiles.
"Now may those who wear these rings live in love all their days ."
Both of them directed their smiles to the mayor now who added.
"Dazai Osamu and Nakahara Chuuya, we have heard your promise to share your lives in marriage. We recognize and respect the covenant you have made here this day before each of us as witnesses. Therefore in the honesty and sincerity of what you have said and done here today and by the power vested in me, I declare you married and partners for life. You may seal your vows with a kiss ."
They both turned their attention to each other again before Chuuya warns with a whisper.
"Just one ! And a soft one !!"
Then he closed his eyes to feel Dazai's arms around his waist as he himself rested his hands on the taller one's chest before he feels those lips on his in a soft, gentle kiss. They may have shared a lot of kisses in the past, gentles ones, rough ones, passionate ones ... but this one soft kiss was different than all of them. This one soft kiss was special for both of them because this one soft kiss sealed their promise to be each other's partner for the rest of their lives.
Dazai though had to add his personal touch to the whole scene as he deepened the kiss letting it at least last two minutes making the ginger blush while the rest only chuckled. He didn't pull away till the mayor coughed then said.
"May we get the newlyweds's signatures now ?"
They both set back with Dazai wearing a satisfied smile as he sighed on the documents while Chuuya blushed so hard at the previous scene then stopped as he was about to sign at Dazai's words.
"You remember what you said when i told you you will always be loyal to me back when we were fifteen ?"
Chuuya gave the other a confused look then let out a chuckle at the memory.
"I said 'Do I look like the type of nice guy who would do that?'"
"And look at us now ..."
Chuuya signed on the paper with a nostalgic smile on his face.
"Yeah, look at us now ..."
The ginger pushed the documents to their witnesses then after both Albert and Louis signed. They all stood up as the mayor said.
"It is now my personal privilege and great joy to be the first one to introduce Dazai Osamu and Nakahara Chuuya as
the newly married couple. Partners in life... for life. Please greet them warmly ."
He gave one last smile to the newlyweds then left the room with his assistant while both witnesses instently stood up and congratulated them before they all leave the building.
"If you need anything then you know where to find me ."
Albert said to the other two and Dazai was surprisingly the one answering him.
"I hope you will be able to attend our wedding in Japan ."
"If i get an invitation card then i sure will ."
"You can look forward to it then ."
Chuuya asked for one last favor from the other which his subordinate took care of as he took the car's keys to return the car to the hotel since they both wanted to walk around first before going back.
They walked side by side around Paris's streets then they both slightly blushed when Dazai made the first move to hold Chuuya's hand. He was also the one who talked first since Chuuya was obviously overthinking everything in his small mind not knowing how to behave with him now that they are married.
"How about we change your name to 'Dazai Chuuya' now ?"
"Why aren't you the one who becomes 'Nakahara Osamu' ?"
"Because ... come on, Dazai Chuuya sounds better~"
"Are you implying that my name doesn't sound good ?"
"It doesn't sound bad but Dazai Chuuya sounds better~"
"You-"
Chuuya was about to retort and get back into their usual bickering but he refrained himself at remembering the ring around his ring finger. He opted to leave this topic for some other time and asked instead.
"You .. talked to Albert about our wedding but we never planned to hold a wedding in the first place ..."
"I thought it was obvious that we're holding a proper ceremony for our wedding when we go back to Japan .."
"Did you forget that we did this without telling anyone ?! Anee-san will be the first one to murder us and let's not mention the fact that we are in different organisations so we better keep quit about this ..."
"No way ! We get married once in our lives so there is no way we aren't holding a wedding, i bet if we invite all of them they will just go on with it and forget about it the next day~"
"You're being reckless ..."
"Besides !"
Dazai leaned down surprising the ginger who stopped looking up at him then at the showcase in the shop behind him since the brunet was pointing at it with a gentle smile on his face.
"Besides, i would love to see Chuuya wearing one of those ..."
"A ... a wedding dress ?!!!! I'm not a girl so there is no way i'm wearing it, it's embarassing !"
"Why ?? You would look gorgeous with it ! Better than any woman !! Besides, does the gender really matter ? I mean .. we just got married, Chuuya ..."
Dazai lifted the other's hand kissing his ring on his ring finger making him blush then avert his gaze.
"Let's ... not decide about such things in the middle of the street .."
The brunet was the one giving up for once and decided to leave this talk for later as he just grabbed the other's hand again and walked back to the hotel they were staying in.
In their room, Chuuya instently took off his tie then laid on the bed tiredly not ready to have his husband on top of him catching his lips in a fast kiss then smirking.
"How about our honeymoon ? Should we get on with it today or wait till our wedding ?"
Chuuya blushed harder, not like they never had sex together but the fact that now, they were married, made it all different. He still tried his best not to stutter as he looked into the other's hazel eyes and said.
"How about ... both ?"
... and his lips were catched all over again in a deep kiss this time.
"That's why i love you, Chuuya~"
Dazai then stood up pulling the ginger with him spanking his ass teasingly.
"Go take your shower first then~"
"I .. i will ..."
"Why are you getting all shy when you are supposed to open up more to me now that i am your husband ?"
"I ... i don't know !!"
Chuuya instently ran to the bathroom then closed the door behind him and slowly slided down with his heart beating faster before he lifts his hands and stares at his ring.
Dazai went to sit in the balcony then his eyes slowly wandered to his ring on his ring finger with a smile finding it's way to his lips.
'We are finally married ...' they both thought.
