Thank you so much everyone for all your love, reviews, encouragement, and overall awesomeness! *hearts* It has been a pleasure reading all your comments and reactions to my story, and I'm quite sad to tell you guys that this is officially the end. I hope I'll get to see some of you again when I post future stories. ^^ But for now, please enjoy this epilogue of sorts~
This chapter is unbetaed so excuse any typos please. XD
This is a deanon from the kink meme. Prompt is in previous chapters if you want to see.

Sixteen-year old Shizuo huffed angrily, glaring at the sprawled bodies on the field. He wondered why so many people decided to just attack him. It pissed him off a bit. After all, he hadn't even done anything to them! A steady stream of claps sounded behind him, and Shizuo turned around, almost freezing over in shock when he saw who was behind him. There he sat, a younger reflection of the man who had disappeared so suddenly years ago. His raven hair, crimson eyes, and exuding self confidence were all the same. It was definitely him.
Shizuo's heart skipped a beat, and he opened his mouth briefly to say his name—feeling his heart soar at the thought of finally meeting with him once again—only he was interrupted by Shinra.
"He's Orihara Izaya," Shinra said with a wide grin as he introduced the guy sitting next to him. "Well, he's not the nicest guy around…or should I say, he's a bad guy."
"That's mean, Shinra," Izaya feigned a bit of hurt as he sighed. Shizuo could only stare, shocked and speechless.
Bad guy? What did Shinra mean by that? And didn't Izaya already know him? How come Izaya didn't seem to recognize him? But as Shizuo took a good look at the raven-haired young man sitting in front of him, Shizuo realized this wasn't the Izaya he knew. First off, he looked a bit too young compared to the Izaya he met before, and secondly, the wicked and calculating smirk on his face felt off. He didn't seem like Izaya. Or at least, not like the Izaya Shizuo remembered.
Did this mean the Izaya he had met wasn't this one? Shizuo felt his heart sink. He had waited years to see Izaya again after that night when he disappeared. Every day Shizuo had woken up, hoping that today would be the day he would meet Izaya. Because Izaya had promised him. He had promised, saying they would meet.
And suddenly, Shizuo felt a bit betrayed. Here he was, anxiously awaiting Izaya's return to him, and the Izaya he met didn't even know what had occurred between them. What Izaya meant to him…
"I don't like him." The words had left his mouth before he really thought about them. But then after he said them, Shizuo realized he actually really didn't like this Izaya. He didn't like the fact that this Izaya didn't know. Didn't know how happy he had made Shizuo before, and how much Shizuo had missed him.
"Oh?" Izaya said curiously, looking up at Shizuo with one eye open. "That's too bad. I thought I'd be able to have some fun with you."
Somehow that sentence made Shizuo bristle slightly. He didn't like the mocking, sarcastic tone of Izaya's words. And they had had fun with each other before, just not the type of 'fun' this Izaya was probably talking about. "Shut up," Shizuo growled as he turned away, not able to face Izaya anymore. It hurt to look at his face and see that this Izaya didn't know anything.
"Don't say that, Shizuo-kun."
Shizuo twitched. Hearing something else besides "Shizu-chan" from Izaya's mouth sounded weird. He could feel the anger bubbling up inside—how dare this Izaya taint his memory of his Izaya?—and without even thinking he rushed towards Izaya, a snarl escaping his mouth as he aimed his fist towards the raven.
Izaya quickly dodged, the table crumbling under Shizuo's strength. Shizuo turned around, looking for the agile raven, before he jumped backwards having been cut across the chest by Izaya. Shizuo looked down at his chest for a moment, seeing blood drip down, before glaring up at Izaya.
"See? It's fun," Izaya stated with a wicked smile on his face, his switchblade pointed at Shizuo.
Shizuo just clutched his chest, staring angrily. This was nothing like his Izaya. He hated this Izaya. He hated him…!
"Shizu-chan?" a voice questionably called out to him. "Yoohoo, Shizu-chan?"
"Ugh," Shizuo groaned as he rolled over in his bed, the dream of that high school meeting fading from his mind as he cracked one eye open to see a pale-faced, raven-haired young man staring down at him with bright crimson eyes. A smile spread out across the raven's face.
"Time to get up sleepy-head."
"Dun wanna get up, flea," Shizuo muttered as he rolled over again so his back was facing Izaya.
"Come on, Shizu-chan! The day's wasting away!" Izaya chastised. "Don't you want to do something productive today?"
"Yeah," Shizuo murmured, a smile curling up on his face. And suddenly Izaya yelped as a hand reached out and tugged him into the bed. He glared up at Shizuo who only smirked in response, wrapping his arms around Izaya's waist to keep him trapped there. The blonde whispered suggestively in the raven's ear, "I can think of a few productive things we can do in bed today."
"My, my, Shizu-chan, who knew you were such a perverted old man," Izaya sighed regretfully, though a sly smile crept onto his face.
"Hey, you're only a year younger than me," Shizuo pointed out. "You have no right to call me an old man."
"Au contraire, my silly protozoan," Izaya protested. "I'm forever twenty-one, hence I'll always be this beautiful and young."
Shizuo snorted in disbelief before an amused laugh escaped him. Izaya glared at him, probably wondering what he was laughing at, but Shizuo could only laugh some more while slowly shaking his head.
Now this was the Izaya he loved. And there wasn't anything that would ever change that.
The end. Ohh fluffy morning moments with Izaya and Shizu-chan are so cute~ ^^
Speaking of fluffy morning moments, I actually have another oneshot I wrote for the kink meme that can tie in with this story and be seen as another "after events" epilogue of sorts like this chapter. This oneshot, however, is more risqué and if you don't want to totally ruin your image of this cute and fluffy story, then there's no need to read it. I'll be posting it separately as a oneshot, but if you'd like some early morning fluffy Shizaya smut feel free to read it. :3 It should be up soon after I post this. XD
Thanks again everyone for reading, reviewing, and loving this story. :D
