Monstrous Love [Shizaya (Sequel to Psychopathic Love)]

Chapter 15: Damnit, Izaya!

"Shizu-chan~" He sings every syllable. Shit. I knew it had to be something bad because he called while I was working. I'm not quite sure what this all means, but I know it's not good.

"Yes, Izaya?" I ask with forced interest.

He hums for a second to collect his thoughts. "Can you pick me up?" What is wrong with him? For one, he's acting strangely, and for two, why the hell is he not home!

"Where are you, and why are you not home?" I motion to Tom-san that'll this'll be a minute. He nods in acknowledgment, and I step to a quieter location.

"Well~ Shiki-san wanted some stuff, so I came to get him," he slurs some of the words together. Oh, god. Don't tell me he's drunk. "Wait," he giggles to himself. "I meant I gave it to him. I didn't get him. I have you."

"Izaya," I sigh. "Didn't I tell you to only give information if people would come to the house unless I was there to accompany you?"

He whines. "Iwsh bored!"

"Izaya," I breathe slowly so I don't get angry. "Are you drunk?"

"No~ Silly~ I'm just buzzed. Although I can't see anything, so maybe I am drunk."

"You're blind," I point out bluntly.

He giggles. "Oh, yeah. I forgot." And he tried to tell me he wan't drunk.

"Why are you even drinking in the middle of the day!" I ask angrily.

"Don't use that tone with me. I'll fucking cut you," he growls. What the hell!? Shinra did tell me he's usually an angry drunk, but that was a complete change in attitude.

I hear him giggle again. "Dota-chin and I had a contest."

"You're with Kadaota?" I thought he met up with Shiki.

"Not anymore. I left to try to find you, but I don't know where I am."

"Izaya," I start, but he cuts me off.

"I think I might be by the station."

"Okay," I tell him. "Don't move. I'll come get you."

"Bye~" He hangs up.

I return to the other side of the building and spot my employer.

"Tom-san, is it alright if I step out for a bit? I'll be right back."

He nods. "Is it Izaya or Zenko?"

"Izaya," I sigh.

He chuckles, "You sure have your hands full with him. I think your child is more responsible."

I sigh again, "I know. He's a pain in the ass."

"Well you better go before he causes you more problems."

"Thanks," I put my hand up as a signal of 'bye' and run off towards the station.

Luckily, I find him almost instantly. He's sitting on a bench, swinging his legs.

"Izaya," I call out as I get closer.

He turns his head in my direction when I call his name. "Shizu-chan~"

I grab his arm and help him to his feet. "Come on. I'm almost done with work, so just tag along."

"M'kay~" He smiles and clings onto my arm.

I shake him off. "Stop."

He skips to stand in front of me. "Then carry me. I can't walk."

"Yeah you can."
