Reconnect (Izaya Orihara x reader)

6

It has been a few weeks since you last saw Izaya, you were staying over at Shinra's place.

After you had run off, Celty found you walking on the streets when it had started raining. When you saw her you couldn't help but run over and cry on her shoulders. Celty never asked why, she figured it would best not to, so she just took you back to Shinra's before you caught a cold.

When you had finished taking a shower and calmed down you told both her and Shinra what happened between you and Izaya. They understood, so they let you stay over for as long as you needed to.

"[I can't believe Izaya would say such a thing!]" Celty said to Shinra later that same night.

"Really? I think it sounds just like him. I mean when Y/n left-back in highschool I think Izaya was hurt," Shinra says.

"[What makes you think that?]" 

"He started acting strange so I decided to ask him why and he told me, "She promised to be my friend forever,". That's when I thought that Izaya really is the most human out of anyone."

"I also thought that he might l-" Shinra stops his statement.

"[He might what?]" Celty asks.

"Nothing. We shouldn't worry about those two, they always get into little arguments like this even back in junior high but they would always end up making up after a few days or weeks. Everything will turn out just fine." Shinra says.

"[I hope your right.]" Celty says.

'Those two have always been bad at conveying their personal feelings into words when they're together, so maybe this will help them with that and maybe change something else entirely,'

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You were cleaning a bit while Shinra and Celty were out. After all, it's the least you could do.

As you were in the middle of cleaning you heard the doorbell ring.

You were walking towards the door when you felt a small sense of dread come over you.

 You opened the door and saw Namie standing there.

"Namie, what are you doing here?"

"I'm here to talk to you about a few things, first we'll start with this," Namie says as she pulls out a file from her bag.

"A file?"

"It's your file to be exact. Seems like Izaya was curious about what you've been up to, though it seems like he never opened it to see its contents."

"What does that mean?" You ask.

"I think it means he may have had an idea that you were going to come back one day and that maybe he wanted to hear from you why you had to leave, which means-" Namie says.

"-meaning he never actually forgot about me." You say.

"Yes, it seems so, as weird as it sounds."

You couldn't believe it but finding this out relieved you, you were glad he never forgot you.

"Also the final thing I wanted to tell you is that, Izaya's in the hospital. It seems he got injured in some sort of brawl with some back-alley guys." Namie says.

Your eyes widen. As much as you were hurt and angry, you still loved him, so you couldn't just stand by. You moved past Namie as you headed to the hospital. You knew you had to see him.

"Those two sure are crazy about each other."

All you could think about was seeing Izaya, seeing him even after he said those cruel things. You knew that even though he may not have the same feelings as you, he was your friend and you had to be there for him.

You made it to the hospital and went straight to the front desk.

"Is there a patient here by the name of Izaya Orihara?" You ask the woman.

"Mm...yes there is, he's in room 110." She says.

"Thank you." You say before heading off towards the room.

As you make it to the front of the room, you start getting nervous to see him.

'Just go in. He's probably asleep anyway hopefully,'

You say before going in.

As you enter you notice that it's dark.

"Izaya?"

"Oh if it isn't Y/n-chan, what brings you here?"

"I came to see you when I heard about what happened." You say.

"I see," Izaya says.

"I...also wanted to talk to you," You say.

"About what? Why you left?"

"Yes. Listen Izaya I-I didn't mean to-"

Izaya then grabs your wrist pulling you towards him giving him the chance to pin you to the bed.

"If you love me so much then why did you break your promise to me! Why...did you leave without saying a word to me? Am I not your best friend?"

You saw tears in the corner of his eyes, something you never saw before even after knowing him for so many years. It took your breath away.

"Izaya...you remembered that promise, and when I broke it you were hurt...I'm so sorry Izaya. I never meant to hurt you." You say as you use your hand to gently caress his face while tears started to form in your own eyes.

"I know you didn't mean to but it still hurt Y/n,"

"I'll make it up to you. I'll work for you, I'll do anything."

"You know you shouldn't say something like that, especially to a man," Izaya says as he gets off of you and sits up.

"Well I know you're not that kind of man, so it's fine." You say nudging him slightly.

"Hey, watch it I'm still injured."

"Oh come on, considering how many brawls you've been, this is nothing." You say pointing at Izaya's injuries.

"There you are, interesting as always," Izaya says.

"Yeah and there you go being a weirdo as always." You say back.

"Better than nothing and you know you like it."

"You're not wrong. You never change Izaya."

"Never said I would."

"Right, of course."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After a week Izaya was let out of the hospital and you were back to living with him along with working under him.

"Well looks like I'm done for the day, so I'll be leaving," Namie says.

"Of course, get home safely." You say before Namie walked out the door.

You looked at Izaya who was chatting away on a forum.

You knew he was pulling strings behind the scenes for upcoming situations.

No matter how much you disapprove, you knew he would never stop because you also knew he loved humans and this was his way of showing it.

You were content enough to know he's just being himself.

After all, that's what you like about him. Just him being himself.
