"What should I do?" You soon drifted off to sleep. The next day you were waking up,and started to get up to get to work. You went to the restroom and as you stared into the mirror,you noticed the hickey Izaya had given you the previous day. "Damn it! This guy is going to die the next time I see him." You didn't have any make-up to cover it up,so you had no other choice but deal with it. "I'll just say I hit myself with something,I don't know."
Your phone was ringing in the other room. Leaving the restroom,you checked to see who left you a message. "Great,just what I needed..."
(N/N)-chan~
Just wanted you to know that I had a fun time with you last night. To bad it had to end early (-.-)
Oh well,next time we'll go all the way. I promise.
Byee~
"He just wants me to kill him..." After you read his text,you made a quick breakfast and left.
Reading Izaya's text made your day less great to wake up to. "I'll go to the convenient store and pick up something nice for myself." On your way there,you wondered what you were going to do with Shizuo finding out you were going soft for Izaya. Surely he wouldn't overreact,right? you thought. While entering the convenient store you accidentally ran into a high school student wearing a Raira uniform. "Oops,sorry about that." The boy you ran into had blueish hair and was looking towards you. "No problem,hey do I know you." He exclaimed.
"You work at that café not too far from here. Funny,I went to see you once there. You were really great." You still got scared every time people said they knew you. It made you think they were talking about your past self. You placed your hand over your head embarrassed by the fact that you still couldn't trust people with your true identity. "Oh right,well I never would have thought people would recognize me outside the place. So,uh what's your name?"
You were a little unsure about the guy,something wasn't right to you. "I'm Aoba,nice to meet you." He smiled. "I'm (F/N)." You enter the store looking for something to grab. Aoba followed behind you, "So what's a pretty face like yourself doing around Ikebukuro?" dumbfound,you thought by now you wouldn't look like such a tourist around the city. "How can you tell?" Aoba just smiled at put his hands up in an I-Don't-Know pose.
"Well if you must know I've met some people around,so I thought I would have been considered a resident by now." Aoba only laughed, "Really,and who might that be?" "Well I know a few kids who go to that school of yours." You pointed to his uniform. "Masaomi and Mikado." Aoba looked at you with glee, "You know Mikado-senpai? Amazing I'll let him know I met you." You were pretty indifferent when it came to Mikado,you never actually thought he could be popular at his school.
"I also met some unwanted people as well..." You were referring to that human obsessed pervert. "Do tell,Ikebukuro has it's crazys just as much as any civil person around." You laughed,it was true, you knew it had it's perks. "Have you heard about those pretty well know people in Ikebukuro,you know like Shizuo Heiwajima or that guy he always chases,What's his name,Izaya Orihara?"
Trying to avoid the topic of Izaya was like the plague to you,it was impossible to escape. "Yeah,I have... Both actually,they can be pretty cool,I guess once you get to know the two." Aoba then stopped in front of an ice cream bend, "Wait you know them? Wow,call me impressed but I didn't expect that at all. How are they?" "Shizuo is actually a kind person. And uh Izaya I only know he is in love with humanity."
Aoba laughed again, "That guy is such a mental wreck. I could never see anyone love him in return,heck I bet his interest in women include crazy and weird." Knowing that Izaya had a thing for you,this made something inside you snap. You actually got offended over Aoba's comment. "He doesn't have bad taste in women!" you blurred out. silence filled the store,
"Uhh Izaya is actually not all that terrible either,he uhh just has issues to work out. That's all." "Are you going to tell me he isn't some mad man with a human fetish or what?" Aoba was smiling,it didn't look like he was mad,it was almost like he was provoking the entire situation. "No,he may be messed up in the head,but he really isn't half bad." You never stood up to someone over Izaya before,it was almost second nature to you it seemed. Aoba had a point though,Izaya was a little bonkers at times. It was one of his qualities you couldn't forget.
"Tell me then,does he actually have something for you,it sure seems like you are a little protective over him." "I don't think I like you Aoba,but you tell me this. How do you feel about Izaya-since we're on the matter?" You got closer to him,you weren't leaving without an explanation. "He's a waste of breath if anyone ever asked me." This shocked you,did Aoba Know Izaya in some way? How much did he know about Izaya-and maybe you? "I'm glad to have met you,who knows maybe you're part of something big and you just don't know it yet."
You didn't understand what he met,so you just left it at that. You snatched a snack off a random shelf and went to the cashier without looking back,Aoba was still were you left him. You hurried up to pay and quickly left the store. Aoba was still smiling even after you were leaving "So the rumors were true,she does have something with him. Don't know what yet,but I soon will. (F/N)... What a cute girl you're after,Izaya."
What's that guys problem? And when will I ever run into normal people? Before hitting the café,you came across Shizuo. Finally someone to make you feel better. "Shizuo! Hey!" You ran towards him,he was next to a little girl who looked to be in elementary. "Oh,(F/N). Hey,hows it been?" Shizuo was smoking his cigarette when the little girl came close to you. "Hi,I'm Akane." she cheered, "Nice to meet you." You raised an eyebrow to Shizuo, "Uh Hi there. Shizuo,did you kidnap this little girl?"
Shizuo looked irritated,"No,I didn't. Why do you and Shinra think that?" Shizuo explained the situation with Izaya and Akane. You thought it was kinda strange that Izaya would kidnap little girls. Shizuo then told you about Izaya teaching Akane to kill Shizuo,which made you laugh until Shizuo said she actually tried to shock him. "So you're just keeping tabs on her then? Okay that's cool. I just ran into some idiot school boy,so I'm not in the best mood right now.
"It happens,well I'll leave you to it then. Good luck at work." Shizuo then left. "Bye (F/N) onee-chan!" Akane waved. Time for work I guess,better not run into Izaya again- Entering you walked in,ready for the day. Even if you had to deal with teenagers coming up to you and call you crazy. Upon going in,Izaya was in front of the entrance,looking as if he was waiting for someone.
You go up to him,he was smiling when he noticed your arrival. "You here again? Looks like my stalker can't get enough of me." You proclaimed. "I'm wounded (N/N)-chan,out of everyone I would have thought you would actually enjoy my presence." He said in a pouting manner. "Whatever,it's not like I'm in love with you or anything." You say half sure. The words the guy you met at the store where still in affect.
Who was that guy anyways? Does he know me or something? Uh,never mind that. I have another idiot to deal with right now. Lately alot of things haven't made sense to you. Was it perhaps the fact that Izaya had some sort of interest with you? "You may think it's nothing,but a game now. But trust me,you will come crawling to me,Begging for my approval." His statement made you uncomfortable. "Whatever happened with you and me,never happened. Understand?"
Before Izaya could respond,you walked to the stage. Leaving all your thoughts behind,you began to sing again. "This song goes out to everyone who was been through some tough times. I'm here to say,you're not alone." Instantly the show begins. Into the crowd,you spot Izaya as always enjoying the show in his usual spot in the room. You couldn't forget the mistake you almost made at his apartment.
How you dance around in front of him. Trying to think of something else,you also spot Masaomi with his group of friends.This made you smile,seeing someone other then that flea,as Shizuo calls him,made you glad that you did what you do. Izaya sees your eyes move to where Masaomi is and turns to see Masaomi as well.
Great,now Izaya knows that I have something to do with Masaomi. This day just keeps getting better. Finishing your last song,you prepared for what was about to go down. Knowing Izaya and the fact that Masaomi isn't really in good terms with him,you have known Izaya long enough to know he was about to cause some mayhem.
Once getting off stage,you ran to the door avoiding anyone who was to come to you. "Great performance,(F/N). You're always surprising me,no matter how many times I've seen you sing." Slowly turning around,you face Izaya. You see from your left that Masaomi and his friends were coming towards you and Izaya. "Well look who's here,Masaomi. Nice to know you dropped by." Izaya said. Masaomi wasn't to pleased,his face looked concerned.
"Hey,(F/N). Izaya..." The mood was beginning to shift,making things going from bad to worse. "Hey Izaya! Oh and Nice to meet you too (F/N)." The girl named Saki exclaimed. "So Masaomi,you Know (F/N) too? Now what a coincidence,don't you think?" Silent,you didn't say anything. Masaomi then looked at you,almost sending you messages with his eyes. "Hey,(F/N)... Mind if we could talk later?" Confused you only nodded,"sure thing. After I'm done for the day."
"Looks like I'm not the only one who's fallen for you." Izaya said. Making things awkward again. Blushing,you looked to Masaomi,who only walked away. "See you later,(F/N)." You looked over to Saki,wondering how she was taking Izaya's comment. She didn't look mad,if anything she just smiled and waved goodbye,with the rest of the gang following. "See you around,(F/N)." Mikado said.
"Well,I'm off too. I have things to do; people to see,bartenders to annoy. I'll text you later (N/N)-chan. I'll be looking from afar to keep tabs on your progress. See yeah." Izaya left,waving. You were standing and wondering,what'll happen next.
After work was done,you stayed after to clean up and lock up before after hours,the place would be later packed with bikers and die hard metal fans. Thank god the days almost done. You planned to get on the chatroom once you got home and try to get your mind out of reality. I wonder what Masaomi has to tell me today??? Would it have something to do with Izaya? Masaomi did warn you about Izaya,but you never actually thought they knew each other personally.
Looking back,you soon realized that they didn't seem to get along well for some reason. You sort of knew why,something to do with that girl Saki. Both Masaomi and Celty briefly explained the situation,you wondered if Izaya may have played a part in it. That guy can't be that messed up? Izaya being the cause of Saki's accident... would he? You would ask Masaomi about it on a different occasion.
Suddenly from the window,you could distinctly make out Masaomi from outside. He was coming in with the same expression he left with not too long ago. You didn't think he would have come back,you thought he would send you a text or call. "Masaomi? What are you doing here so late?" You asked. Opening the door he noticed you coming close to him. "(F/N),there is something I wanted to tell you." His voice strained a little.
"Must be important if your coming here at this hour?" He looked down at his feet,not answering. "Uhh,Masao-" "Listen to what I have to say,please." You were still,"Okay? What did you want to tell me then?" Masaomi came closer to you,making you step back for a moment. His eyes intensely look at yours. "Me and Izaya have history,and I think it's best if yous stay clear of him." stunned,you let him continue.
"Izaya is bad news,and I mean really bad news. I would know... Don't make the same mistake that I did,if only I could-" "Masaomi,I know how he is. And I get were you're coming from. But it's really not that big of a deal,I can handle him." You said. "(F/N),he may seem like an idiot with a mentality of a first grader,but he is cunning and devious." You have any idea. "Like I said before I can handle it,it's not a big deal." "Yes it is!" He screamed. Silence fell between the two of you.
"He is going to hurt you,and I don't want that to happen. I just know he has something planned,I want you to believe me." You didn't realized before,but Masaomi was holding on to your hands. Making you unsure what to say next. "I think you should go,I have to head home soon also..." You spoke softly. "Okay... But just consider what I said,think it over if you have too..." And with that note Masaomi left.
