I'll Call You When The Dust Settles

Oh! So The Monster Can Get Sick

<<<<<<<VOLUME 2>>>>>>>

<<<<<5 Months Later>>>>>

"AH!! CHOO!!" "Woah. That was a big one man.", said Tom as he and Shizuo walked down the street together. "I didn't even know you could get sick. Who knew?." "Well I definitely have something." "Well it will pass in time." They both walk to Shizuo's apartment building.

He turns toward Tom. "Thanks Tom. Talk to you later." He opens his apartment door and walks inside. Tom pauses for a bit before saying, "He still hasn't fully healed huh? I can see that his scars run deep from what Izaya did."

<<<<<5 Minutes Later>>>>>

Shizuo undresses to go and take a shower. "Gah!" Shizuo was very wobbly on his feet. "Dammit! Once I take some medicine then this damn thing will go away!", growled Shizuo as he enters the bathroom.

After a while he exits with his casual T-shirt and blue boxers with two pair of white lines on either sides. "Shit this sucks", complained Shizuo as he takes some medicine before lying down to sleep. Soon enough he was fast asleep.

His dreams were incoherent. He dreamt about the past; when he first discovered his great strength. He thought back to when he first met Izaya with his big cocky grin on his face. He clenches the bed sheets and begins to become restless.

"You are a monster"

His eyes shoots open as he lies there in cold sweat. "Fuck!"

<<<<<The next day>>>>>

Celty had just finished delivering a package. On the way, she decided to text Shizuo to see how he was doing.

"Hey dead man. Heard that you came down with a pretty bad cold. You ok?"

Shizuo awoke to a dinging sound. "What the heeelll?!", he groaned before he reached toward his phone. He picks up the phone and tries to read the text only to discover his vision's blurry. Setting the phone down on his chest and gasping, he stares up at the ceiling before dozing off again.

*knock knock knock* Shizuo awakes to a sore back, stiff legs, and a massive headache. He felt as though he would vomit. "Ah!! Wha...!?" He tries to get his footing but quickly stumbles back into the bed. "What's....happe-", he is cut off as he blacks out again.

He awakes to find that he is laying on Shinra's couch. He tries to gather his thoughts and tried to move. Just then the door opened and Celty and Shinra walked in. Shinra with a big dumb grin on his face. Celty rushes over and begins to type. "How are you feeling?! I went to your apartment to check on you! You were passed out on the floor! I came to check on you! It's a good thing I did!"

"Your fever is very high. In fact, it's higher than anybody else's temperature that I have ever read. You read 120°F! Anybody normal would be dead by than." "Grr...", growled a sluggish Shizuo as Celty handed him a glass of water.

She begins to type: "Please try to relax. You need it. Shinra may not look it but he's very smart so he would know what to do..." "Aww my dear Celty, that's not nice❤", whinned Shinra holding on to Celty. "Haaa. Anyway, get some sleep."

Shizuo looked at Celty then at Shinra. "Yeah....ok." He lays back down and begins to drift off to sleep. A voice started to speak to him.

"Monster."

A voice that he heard before. That pierced the heart. It was the flea. An image of Izaya appeared before Shizuo. Izaya had a look on his face as though he was hurt. This pained Shizuo to see as he starts toward Izaya.

"Ahh! No! Don't!"

Images of men appeared around Izaya and began to strip off his clothes. This pissed off Shizuo as he charges toward them. Just then, he felt a sharp pain in his left shoulder again. "AH!" He looks over to see it is Izaya with a huge grin on his face. Shizuo can no longer move as Izaya whispers to him:

"You have to choose one of us to save. Either me, or him.

Izaya points toward the image of Izaya with his hands tied behind his back taking dick from two men on either ends. Shizuo eyes widen as he tries to free himself as he feels his rage builds. *STABS* "GAAHH!!" The knife pludge deeper into his shoulder as Izaya, the one stabbing him, is also swept away by men.

"Mhhm!❤ Ah!❤ No!❤ Pl-please save me!❤ Shi...."

"Choose one and only one..."

"SHIZU-CHAN!!!"

Shizuo's eyes shot open to find that he had Izaya pinned down to the couch in his office. Izaya's clothes were a tattered mess with cuts going through everything and Izaya breathing heavily. Shizuo is completely dumbfounded. How did he get here?! What the hell was going on?! He did want to see Izaya again but what is this?!

Izaya reaches up toward Shizuo's heated face and smiles.

"Oh! So the monster can get sick?"
