Today you were just trying to avoid dealing with the constant disasters that seemed to plague Ikebukuro. With a soft sigh, you looked up at the sky. In the distance, gray clouds were forming on the outskirts of the town. They didn't seem too menacing so you made your way to the fountain near the center of the city. Unknown to you, however, there was a particular blonde in a bartender outfit who had the same idea. You shoved one hand into the pocket of your blue jeans passing by the familiar sushi shop where a large man stood handing out flyers.
"Hello, Simon. Out with the flyers again I see," you commented as you slowed your pace.
"Ah (Y/n). It been long time since you come by. I make new sushi." Simon boasted and handed you a flyer.
You let your eyes skim the words and nodded a bit in approval, "Sounds good Simon. Just don't get caught in any rain."
Simon smiled brightly, "Rain good for business. People come rushing inside with no choice and buy sushi. You come by I give discount dah." Simon said with a chuckle.
"Maybe later Simon," you responded as he continued yelling 'Russia Sushi!' and passing out flyers.
You folded the flyer, keeping it in your hand as you walked a few more blocks to your intended destination. There the fountain sat looking elegant in the pretty empty setting. Everywhere else was busy but the area around the fountain always seemed so empty but tranquil to you. You sat on the edge of the fountain, dipping your fingers one by one into the cold water. It was going perfectly fine considering how chaotic things had been lately. At least that's what you thought until you heard the creaking of a lamp post breaking.
"Why don't you watch where you're going punk!?!?" screamed an all too familiar voice.
You grumbled a few profanities under your breath as you stood from your spot on the fountain. You made your way to the sound where you saw Shizuo and some guy. Shizuo's glasses were in the hands of a guy, who was wearing a yellow scarf and offering them back to Shizuo.
"I-I'm so s-sorry! I didn't m-mean to!" he apologized but Shizuo had no intention of forgiveness.
His cigarette was crushed under his shoe as he prepared to swing the pole. You took no time to stand in the way of the pair just on the outskirt of the trees surrounding the area. Shizuo stopped mid growl and looked at you, frowning as he refrained from swinging. You took the glasses from the guy and gave him a menacing glare as he bowed apologetically before sprinting in the opposite direction. You turned your attention to Shizuo.
"Really? Do you have to ruin this peaceful day?" You asked as you looked up, meeting his eyes.
Truth be told, you've known Shizuo for years. You were 18 and he was 19 when the two of you met for the first time. And although you two didn't hang out often, you hardly ever saw his eyes underneath his glasses. You'd never admit it aloud but you liked when he didn't have his glasses on.
"Oh (Y/n). It's you. What're you getting in my way for? That kid knocked off my glasses." Shizuo said angrily.
You rolled your eyes and handed him his glasses back, "Because you're interrupting one of the only peaceful days we ever get."
Thunder clapped as the clouds rolled in closer. You sighed mentally thinking 'So much for a peaceful day with no rain.'
Shizuo put his blue tinted glasses back on his face and dug into his pocket to retrieve his box of cigarettes since he didn't get to finish the one he was originally smoking. He offered one to you which you took without hesitation. It was a habit you'd picked up from Shizuo. You stuck the cigarette between your lips and Shizuo flipped open his Zippo lighter and held it to the end of your cigarette causing your cheeks to turn a light shade of pink as he did this. You took a drag of the cigarette and let the smoke stream from your lips.
