Chapter 18: Lonely pt1

Lonely

Izaya has always been told how lonely he was. Besides Shinra, he had no friends at all.

He didn't care though. Because he didn't consider himself lonely. No, he was just — err,

...lonely...

He couldn't run from the truth.

Secretly, he wished he had a group of friends. Friends that would invite him over to party's or even just to hang out.

Even though Shinra was his friend, he never invited Izaya to party's or anything like that. Mostly because of Shizuo, but anyway, that just showed who Shinra preferred to hangout with.

Izaya kind of understood the reason. Shizuo had more friends than him so it was only fair that he got invited to the party's, since he was liked by everybody at the party's.

All this made Izaya a tiny bit jealous of Shizuo.

Even though Shizuo was a beast, he had friends. Friends that were very fond of him.

While Izaya was not a beast, he had none.

Well there was someone that shared almost the same mind as him.

Namie was kind of considered as a friend to him. She was the closest (besides Shinra) person to be considered a friend.

She listened to him blabber and go on about Shizuo and even helped him with some plans. She didn't say much, but when she did, her words were mostly insults.

The thing was; he didn't feel much lonely with her.

But then he fired her.

Even though he was mad, very mad, at her, he missed her company.

Right now he felt too lonely and he hated it.

He dreaded someone's— anyone's company.

Dialing....

"Hello?"

"Hello Namie!" He said, his voice echoing the empty room.

"Izaya?"

"Yeah...Can you- Can you comeback?"

God, he sounded so pathetic.

"Comeback? Weren't you the one that kicked me out?."

"Yes but I need your help!" He lied.

Well, that wasn't entirely a lie. He just needed someone with him right now. He just felt isolated— too isolated for his liking.

"That's too bad."

He frowned.

"You'll get paid extra!"

He said desperately.

The line fell silent.

She sighed, "...Fine."

Izayas lips rose up to a small smile, "Ok! Work starts now by the way!"

Call ended.

He sighed, leaning back in his chair.
