An Informant's Assistant | Izaya Orihara x Reader

Summer Break Begins!

When you were in college, you actually aspired to become a teacher. However, out of the greediness of your heart, you decided to spend more time with certain someone by becoming an informant's assistant.

Do you like your job? Of course you do. You barely do any work and you get paid pretty nicely. Do you regret not becoming a teacher? Definitely! Why? Well, teachers get a whole summer off!

"Izaya, can't I get a break?" You complained.

"How come?" Izaya asked.

"Well, it's summer, and it's too hot to work," You answered.

"But you barely need to do any work here," Izaya replied.

"I just want to stay home all day, everyday. It always feel like an oven out there!" You claimed.

"Too bad," Izaya said as he spun around in his chair, signaling the close of the conversation. However, you did not stop there.

"I guess I'll just quit this job," You spoke loudly and clearly to get Izaya's attention. "I can just find another job." Even though Izaya's expression shows that he most likely didn't fall for your "trap", he responded, anyway.

"Actually, there is something you could do that would convince me to give you a short break," Izaya said.

You stood in front of a large ice cream shop. The task that Izaya gave you was to help a friend run an ice cream shop. You were certain that Izaya would give you an impossible job to perform to prevent you from getting a break, but how hard could this job be? You entered the shop, and even though you were only an inch inside the place, you were already enveloped in cold air, thanks to the air conditioner and the temperature difference between the room and the outside world. A bell rang the moment the door became shut, causing the shop owner to look up. He was in his early 20's, just like you and Izaya. He eagerly waved towards you and motioned you to come in. You peered around the room, noting the vast amount of customers. Ultimately, you stepped towards him. "You must be the person Orihara-san sent. [Full Name], I believe?" You nodded. "Oh, thank God I managed to remember your name because it would've been awkward if I said the wrong name, right?" He laughed at his own lame joke. When you didn't join in, he continued. "Anyway, my name is Jonas. I look forward to working with you." He held out his hand, and you shook it firmly."So what do I do here?" You asked."Izaya told me you wanted to cool down, so he requested that you work in the freezer/storage room. In other words, you'll be an inventory control specialist. Normally, I go down there myself, but that would mean I would have to abandon the cashier and ice cream station, and you know I don't want to get robbed!" He laughed yet again and stopped when the air around him remained silent and still. "Well, I'm grateful to have you here," Jonas explained."It's a pleasure to be here. Do I get free ice cream?" You asked with the typical sparkly anime eyes."Well, you get to eat the ice cream that is about to expire, so it won't go to waste," Jonas replied. You shrugged."Ice cream is still ice cream. It will do.""Anyway, we should get back to work. I'll show you where the freezer/storage room is," He said, motioning you to follow him. He lead you to a door, in which he opened, and when he did, he descended the staircase it unveiled.

"This is the storage room, and that room down there," He said while pointing to a door in the corner, "is the freezer room, the place where we put all the tubs of ice cream. Once again, I'm so glad you're here. I usually come in early in the morning to do this shit."

"No problem, but you should be thanking Izaya. He's the one who signed me up for this job," You said.

"I actually don't like that guy," Jonas said under his breath.

"Wait, what did you say?" You asked.

"I said I hate that guy, okay?" He exclaimed. You stepped back a little.
