It was a normal day in Ikebukuro. Well, it was normal to the people living there but anyone from outside of it would be surprised or even scared of a "normal" day here. Izaya was walking down the street, watching as his precious humans passed him by. He was just a little too distracted however, as he noticed too late the vending machine hurtling towards him, and the roar that accompanied it. He mentally cursed himself for not being more observant as he was hit with the large machine. He crumpled to the ground. He tried to get up but let out a gasp of surprise and pain when he found he couldn't. A moment later Shizuo, the man who had thrown the machine, grabbed the man who was still scrambling to stand, by the collar and held him up in the air.

"Izaya, what the hell are you still doing in Ikebukuro, I thought I told you to LEAVE" Shizuo growled.

"Just having a stroll… Until you came around that is… Oh, I'm not going to stop visiting here just because you told me, I actually enjoy our little fights~" Izaya responded with a smirk.

"Shut up you flea" Shizuo snarled.

"Ah hah… It seems you've really done it this time Shizu-chan…" Izaya said with a look of slight concern in his eyes, but with a smirk on his face.

"What?" Shizuo looked at Izaya, tilting his head with confusion when he noticed Izaya was being quite still. "What the hell is wrong with you? Why aren't you trying to get away?"

"Well I was just hit with a vending machine, is it really such a surprise that maybe you hurt me and that I'm in pain?" Izaya said, wincing slightly as Shizuo shook him "Ow, what the hell Shizu-chan?"

"You don't get hurt…" Shizuo mumbled

"Hahah, of course I do Shizu-chan… So… Are you going to kill me?" Izaya said with a strange look in his eyes. At first Shizuo thought it was fear, but Izaya doesn't get scared… Does he?

"Of course I'm going to kill you, you flea!" Shizuo said, dragging Izaya into an alley and away from the public eye. Izaya let out a yelp of pain as he was dropped on the ground, grabbed by the hood and dragged. He tried to loosen the taller man's grip on his hood but the man was holding on too tight and his entire body hurt.

As soon as Shizuo was sure there was no one looking, he didn't want anyone else enjoying Izaya's pain and death, he grabbed Izaya by the throat and held him up against the wall, earning a strangled cry from the man who squirmed and struggled under his hold. Izaya looked at the blond with wide eyes in what Shizuo agreed was in fact fear. Was the flea scared of Shizuo?

"What's wrong, flea, scared?" Shizuo asked, a feeling or dominance surfacing, he finally caught the flea, and Izaya was scared of him.

"L-let me go, you protozoan." Izaya squeaked.

Shizuo froze, did Izaya just squeak? How pathetic.

Then Izaya just stopped the squirming and struggling. "Kill me then" Izaya said with a look of acceptance.

Shizuo just looked at him. "Uh… Are you giving up?" Shizuo asked.

"Yes. I am giving up Shizuo" Izaya said, not using the blond's nickname. Shizuo could tell he was still scared, he was shaking like a leaf. But this sudden acceptance of fate took away any feeling of pleasure from Shizuo.

"God damn it flea!" Shizuo shouted making Izaya wince.

"W-what? I thought you wanted to k-kill me…" Izaya said, looking at Shizuo with a look of terrified confusion.

Shizuo grabbed Izaya by the head, his palm covering Izaya's face and got ready to smash his skull against the wall when he heard the man sob.

"God damn it…" Shizuo mumbled as he threw the smaller man over his shoulder and started to walk back towards the street.

"S-Shizuo?" Izaya asked with a squeaky voice.

"Seeing you tremble is fun but seeing you give up on life and then CRY is just disgusting, you're pathetic."

Izaya didn't respond, he just stayed quiet as Shizuo walked through the streets towards his destination earning many strange looks from the general public, and an even stranger look form Erika when they passed her and her friends buy before Walker and Kadota dragged her to the ground.

Eventually Shizuo reached the building he was looking for and was ready to kick down the door when it was opened by a familiar face.

"Ah Shizuo! Hello- Um…" Shinra said, first with mild surprise and then with restrained worry. "Is that who I think it is?" Shinra asked, pointing towards the silent Izaya thrown over Shizuo's shoulder.

"Here" Shizuo said, pretty much throwing the raven at Shinra before walking off without so much as a word.

"Ah, wait, Shizuo!" Shinra called but no response was given. "Ahhh… What the hell happened? Shinra asked Izaya.

"I don't really know… Izaya said with a smirk but Shinra could almost swear Izaya had been crying. "Anyway, I'm hurt, could you help me?" Izaya said, not understanding but accepting Shizuo's apparent show of mercy.

Ahh… Please forgive me… This is my first fanfic so please show some mercy. Anyway, I'll try to get the next chapter out as soon as I can.
