Falling In Love With A Flea (Shizaya. IzayaxShizou)

A Strange Meeting

Shizuo POV

Once I finally dragged myself out of bed, I got changed and walked outside into the city. I grabbed a bagel and a coffee on the way to Tom. After I had finished those, I was halfway to Tom's apartment. I suddenly got this really strange feeling. I stopped walking and looked around. Suddenly, my eyes fell upon..... Izaya? His hair was messy and he had dark circles under his eyes. He looked terrible. He was stumbling down the sidewalk in his signature black jacket. I knew what I had to do. Izaya needed someone right now.

"IIZAAAYYAAAA!!!!!" I yelled. I saw his eyes widen as he quickly turned to face me. I swiftly picked up a vending machine and threw it slightly to the side of him. He jumped "out of the way" and took out his knife.

"H-hey S-shizu-chan. Long time n-no see." He taunted. The teasing wasn't much however, because his voice was so weak. I stared at him before continuing with my feud. I uprooted a nearby stop sign and got into my battle stance. I ran forward and swung the stop sign at the flea's head. He dodged and then smirked cockily. I then did something he didn't expect. I set the sign down and sighed. He stared at me, confusion written all over his face. I couldn't keep this up when I really wasn't mad. I slowly began to walk towards him. He nervously began backing away and I eventually pinned him against the wall. He squirmed around, trying to get away but eventually just turned his head away from me. I noticed he was trembling, did he honestly fear me that much?

"Izaya." I whispered softly. He stared at me in suprise.

Izaya POV

So....I accidentally let Shizu-chan pin me against a wall........I knew I could die. I couldn't look into his honey colored eyes, so I turned my head away. I wasn't going to lie to myself. I was terrified. Of Shizu-chan and of dying. And I was about 3 centimeters from Shizu-chan and 6 seconds away from dying. This wasn't exactly what you would call a good situation for me. I couldn't stop myself from trembling. When suddenly,

"Izaya." A soft whisper in my ear. It was Shizu-chan. But he didn't sound mad. And he wasn't using my name in a threatening manor. I turned and looked into his eyes in complete shock. I must be dead already. Shizu-chan could NEVER stay calm around me. He could never stay calm anyway. But especially around me.

"I'm sorry." He whispered sympathetically.

"W-what?" I asked, as I internally slapped myself for stuttering.

"You heard me. I'm sorry." He repeated, kindness shining in his golden eyes. I just continued staring at him. Suddenly, he leaned in and hugged me gently. He wasn't trying to hurt me. It was as if he was trying to..... comfort me. I wasn't sure what to do. Nothing like this had ever happened to me. Shizuo than pulled away and softly smiled at me before swiftly turning and walking away. I stared after him in complete shock before I just stared at the spot where he had been. I have no idea how long I was standing there but eventually I broke out of my daze and stumbled home. I made myself some strong coffee and walked to my glass window. I watched as the humans below my walked to there pointless destination, like tons of little ants that weren't really helping the colony. I sighed in confusion. What was Shizu-chan up to? Why was he not mad? And most of all why was he so kind to me? My brain turned into high wire and millions of thoughts poured through my head like an endless waterfall. Until only one thought remained. Did he know about the voices? Did he maybe see me talking with Celty and Shinra? Oh no.  Did he somehow hear me talking with Celty!? He wouldn't be able to see what she was saying but.... he might have enough information to- No. What if he's going to Shinra's and Celty's apartment!? What if he did already and knows everything!? Damn it! I ran out of my apartment after setting down my coffee and quickly started running to Shinra and Celty's apartment.

Hi everyone! I am so SO SORRY! :,,, ( I completely forgot about this book! D: I did this little part so you guys know that I'm still alive. Lol. I was just wondering though, do you guys think I should write shorter parts but have them up sooner because they are short, or have long parts because they are long and worth the wait? Just asking your opinion on that. Again I'm so sorry for not updating this! I'll start doing that again. I'm just so scatterbrained. But anyways. I hope you enjoyed this little part. I loves you all so much! ♡ \>~</
