My best friends a ghost

invisible companion

Shizuo woke up with a heavy weight on his chest. Still tired he stared up at the ceiling, he rested a hand in his stomach but felt something different. Looking down he saw a head of black hair. He smiled and rubbed Izayas back.

"So your awake?" Izaya said with a yawn. "Sorry I just kinda fell asleep on your chest." Izaya said looking up.

"So it was real? But get off." Shizuo pushed Izaya off his bed as the raven fell in the floor his feet up in the air.

"Hey I'm gentle! Don't kick me out of your bed." He sat up rubbing his back.

"I though you were dead? How can you feel pain." Shizuo looked down at him confused.

"I told you. Around you I'm pretty much alive and human. You can still hurt me. Its like how it was remember!" Izaya growled at Shizuo.

"Well whatever flea. Do you want breakfast or what? Since I'm stuck with you I might as well get used to it." Shizuo got up rubbing the sleep from his eyes.

"Sure sounds pretty good to me." Izaya got up playfully following Shizuo.

Shizuo Sighed and stood in the kitchen beside Izaya he smiled at his new roommate putting a arm around Izaya and cooking some eggs with his other. The raven felt cold like ice. He wondered if he would always feel that way. Izaya smiled snuggling close to Shizuo's warmth. It felt so cuddly and relaxing. It was as if he could feel his heart racing. Shizuo out the eggs in the plate giving it to Izaya.

"Thanks. So what are you plans today anyways?" Izaya said sitting down to eat the eggs.

"Well.... I had planned to meet up with Celty and I need to go to the store for some things. I assume your coming along." Shizuo said eating his breakfast and on his second glass of milk.

"Well ya I'm coming. I can't just stay here all they. I'm dead to the world but somehow I'll get back into it." Izaya chuckled having many evil ideas.

"Oh great. Just when I thought I got a break. Well don't make me look bad. Got it!" Shizuo said in a angry tone.

"You?! Why I would never do that Shizu-chan." Izaya chuckled.

"So... Since your with me... And it's as if your still alive. That means I can still kick the shit out of you. Or leave you out in the cold to get sick." Shizuo asked a evil glare on his face at Izaya who gulped nervously.

"W...well yes I suppose that's true. But you... Wouldn't do that would you? Shizu-Chan." Izaya asked nervously, the blond just laughed and cleaned up the plates.

Shizuo walked out the front door with Izaya behind him walking quietly. The raven made a few goofy faces then said things trying to piss Shizuo off. The streets were busy and Izaya used to feeling most things dodged people. Trying not to run into anyone. Shizuo on the other hand ignore the flea entirely and walked into the store getting things to eat for the week.

"Man your no fun." Izaya have Shizuo a cocky grin and got elbows in the chest hard. "Ah... Damnit." He laid on the floor dramatically craving attention.

"Your like a child." Shizuo spoke quietly to Izaya making sure no one was around. "I barely touched you get up. I will not carry you around.

"P...pain..." Izaya coughed sarcastically into his sleeve still holding his chest.

Shizuo grumbled something mean then picked Izaya up slinging the flea over his shoulder as he held the basked in his other hand. He paid digging his wallet out of his pocket. The cashier have him a questioning look as to why Shizuo was only using one hand for everything but then realized if you so much as look at Shizuo the wrong way it would be your life. So he ignore his feeling and went back to work. Shizuo thanked the guy and walked out the automatic doors holding the bags.

"Feeling better now? Cuz I'm tired of your drama...." Shizuo mumbled while alone.

Izaya just coughed and leaned his head on Shizuo's shoulder which caused a low growl of irritation from the blond. Izaya just chuckled then was dropped he hit the ground hard. He groaned getting up slowly to rub his back and crack it.

"Shizuo-chan is so mean sometimes." Izaya shined walking back to the apartment.

"Well little Izaya is so annoying sometimes." Shizuo snapped back putting away the food into the fridge.

Shizuo put the rest of the things away in silence. His mind went back to remembering the day Izaya actually died. The blood and the wounds. It made him sick. He looked so pale that day. Shizuo looked back at Izaya with a frown and a face full of regret. Izaya just cocked his head confused then gave a cocky smile. Shizuo grabbed a ice pack from the fridge and unzipped Izaya's jacket unbuttoning the black shirt and put the ice over the large bruised area that sketched itself across Izaya's chest.

"Sorry. Guess I did hit you harder than it looked. I have to remember your not indestructible like I am. I can still hurt you...." Shizuo said laying a hand over Izaya's chest.

"W...what? Oh... Well it's fine. You don't have to bother yourself about it." Izaya turned his head looking away as if nothing happened.

Shizuo just grinned shyly and picked up Izaya walking to the couch to turn on the tv. Izaya sank into Shizuo's lap resting as the warm hand placed the cold over his chest. His thin frame shivered from the cold a moment but remained peaceful.

"See why can't you just be like this all the time. Peaceful and relaxed. Your a cuddly flea." Shizuo chuckled and looked down.

"Beat me up and I'm sure I would probably be like this more often. You should rub my back why your at it." Izaya teased rolling over on his side.

"What do I look like to you a butler? I'm not listening to your demands." Shizuo said hardly. "As soon as the sun sets in leaving to go hang out with Celty."

"Sounds like fun I'm so coming." Izaya said having a few ideas.
