(Shizuo x Reader) Crossed Paths

Chapter 4: Reunion

It's been a month since you started dating. You've never been happier with someone in such a short time. Your first month of dating someone usually felt astringed yet at the same time slowly opening yourself. Not Shizuo. You carried a hunch about him when you wanted to surprise him with gifts and you always nailed it. Vise versa with him. It was magical like a sign from above screaming, "Hey! This is your guy! He's Mr. Perfect!" You wondered if he felt the same.

You had finished work early. You turned in your latest design and now you are taking a day off until your evaluation. You hum a happy tune while wandering the streets. Your eyes sparkle at the sight of a familiar blonde. Your smile falters to a frown. A sting of pain when you see him talking to a woman in her street bike. She seemed familiar, but you couldn't help but listen to your injured heart. He was smiling just a little. You bite your lip clenching onto the bag tightly. You still wanted to say hello to your boyfriend. Before you could jump to conclusion you notice your body has moved on it's own. You had to trust Shizuo. He wasn't like any other. He wouldn't cheat and he thought low of himself so that was a sign. Goodness you sounded selfish. Regardless, you force a smile and start running up from behind. You jump behind him clinging onto him and covering his eyes. He was about to protest when he felt your breasts pressed behind his back realizing his suppressor was a woman. The biker became wary mostly for you. She didn't want you to get hurt by Ikebukero's strongest, yet she was impressed by the balls you carried to attack him. If she could really say that's what this is. Her hands flail as if trying to catch your attention to stop. Shizuo growls ready to toss you off his back until he heard your melodic voice.

"Easy boy it's me." You whisper. His tensed body immediately dropped. The biker gapes in shock that you were able to calm him down in just a split second. He grabs your hands pulling you over to the front.

"(Y/n)." He coos. You beam over your name being called.

"Ding! Ding! Ding! You got it right!" You hug him first then rise to your toes for a peck on the lips. You turn to meet the biker staring at the two of you fan girling.

"(Y/n) this is Celty she's a friend I was about to introduce to you when you got lost. She's a transporter." You wave to the biker.

"Nice to meet you I'm (Y/n)." The biker nods in acknowledgement. She brings out her phone typing something in then showing the two of you. You read a loud,

"A pleasure to meet you as well. You two make a cute couple." You blush taken aback. Same with Shizuo clearing his throat. "I-I'm sorry." She corrects. "Are you not a couple?" You begin to giggle at he panicked question.

"No, we are. We're just not used to people complimenting us. We usually get faces of shock or disgust but whatever." You shrug nonchalantly.

"Ah, I see. Sorry to hear that." She wrote. "I'm so happy for you Shizuo. For both of you. You've finally found a girlfriend."

"Thanks, she's amazing." He lifts your hand kissing the back. Celty once again squeals in her mind over the two of you.

"Well I should go. I have to check up on something for a job. I'll see you two around." She said taking off on her bike.

"Kay, bye. It was nice meeting you." She waves back seconding that notion. "Well that was interesting. Is she a mute?"

"You could say that." You tilt your head inquisitively. "I'm not allowed to say. You'll have to ask her. You nod understanding. It wasn't his place to reveal secrets. Something Celty carried it seems. It certainly was intriguing the way her bike neighed when she took off. The sound also sounded vaguely familiar.
