HI! IM BACK! IZAYA IS BEING SWEET HERE! HAHAHA ENJOY!

Mio and Izaya were forcedly admitted to the mental hospital for their absurd behaviour at the rooftop. Unfortunately for both of them, they were placed beside each other.

2 DAYS LATER…

"For Heaven's sake, why am I here beside you and more importantly in a mental hospital? I'm never crazy and I got a lot of things taken away from me! Even my death place is stolen by you! Ha, it's my retribution for loving humans." Izaya screamed but laughed afterwards.

Mio looked at him disgusted by his twisted and weird personality and then she mumbled to the floor, "At the very least, it was not a person that was stolen from you forever right?"

-Izaya's POV-

I wanted to criticize and argue back but instead I realized that this girl who called herself, Mio also lost someone like me. I then decided to question her further and listen to her instead. I was kind of interested. I really never saw a beautiful woman like Mio intending to commit suicide. It's usually the ugly ones who got rejected by their crushes who commit suicide. But this was different.

"I was in love with a man who gave me lots of love and happiness… he is the type who sacrifice everything for me." Mio paused. 'Uh, the basic love story huh?' I thought. I was wrong. She then started crying, while I start smiling. I would love to see her crying face.

"He got cancer. I didn't know of it until I received a letter from him on the day he died. He acted to be with another woman so that I will stay away from him so that I won't be hurt and sad when he died. I failed as a lover! I failed to notice his illness!" she yelled and then started crying like a baby. Then I started laughing at her.

(Author's Note: Mio's past love life is written in the prequel of this story: Love Really Hurts! Check it out!)

-End of Izaya's POV-

Mio was oblivious to Izaya's laughter. "That's the very reason I wanted to die that time! I can't live any longer! Not when someone I love is no more! I'm different from you. You didn't lose anyone in your life didn't you!" Mio yelled.

Izaya stopped laughing. He paused for a while. "I did. At the very least he loves you right till the end, right?" He replied with a smirk, a weak one.

Mio was taken aback from his words. She looked at him right at the face. To everyone who knew this rude informant, the smirk represents his first ever genuine smile but to Mio, who knew nothing, not even his status in Ikebukuro; this was a start of their friendship. Mio swore that she saw a small lonely tear at the edge of Izaya's eye. "He must have been badly hurt, huh?" Mio thought. She asked Izaya about his case but he didn't bother to tell her. He brushed it of as 'it's over already, wouldn't want to dwell on it any longer'.

The very next day, Izaya got both of them out. Izaya threatened the doctors to let both of them go. He did this without Mio knowing. Actually, everyone know who Izaya was so the doctors obeyed him and let them go. When asked by Mio how they got to be free, he replied with a grin, "I'm not sure myself. I guess they saw our past medical records. And seeing we don't have any physical wounds on our arms and our mental conditions are stable, they let us go."

After they are discharged, Izaya brought Mio down the streets and introduce Ikebukuro to her. He went out with her for lunch on that day. However, they are not alone. The HTT girls were stalking them. The knowledgeable Azusa instantly recognizes Izaya and told the gang about him being an informant and a member of Dollars. Ritsu and Sawako were furious. Yui, however, did not care about that matter. "As long as Mio-chan is happy and that he doesn't hurt Mio-chan is fine, right?" Yui spoke.

The informant's ex-boyfriend is also there. "Finally, he settled down with a girl uh? It's kind of fast though." Shizuo said.

Later that night, Mio and Izaya bid farewell to each other and went off to their own separate ways. Mio learnt that the solution for ending your misery is not always by dying but you can still live on as other people might be worse off than you. Izaya, on the other hand, felt a small spark formed in his heart. He then left to do his side job – attacking his Shizu-chan again. He felt revengeful for what Shizuo have done. He called out the members of Dollars and told them to finish off the Yellow Scarves. Shizuo was indeed surprise when he was called to fight his ex-enemy.

"Izaya! I don't want to fight you!" Shizuo yelled as the 2 groups met. "Oh yeah? Well, I want to fight you. Is there a problem?" Izaya replied. Shizuo snarled and the fight started. The fight between the 2 groups attracted a lot of passer-by. As the fight progresses, Izaya got hit multiple times, which caused him to wince a few times. Izaya took out his signature knife and smirk and laugh maniacally. He then threw it at Shizuo. To his horror, Shizuo grabbed the knife. Izaya was shocked and stopped laughing completely. "IZAAAYYAAA-KUNNNN! Take that!" Shizuo shouted and threw the knife in Izaya's direction. Izaya jumped to avoid the knife and it went straight through one passer-by's chest. "Shit!" Shizuo and Izaya cursed.

Shizuo went over to the lady. Then, he faced towards Izaya. "Oi, she's dead." Shizuo said. Izaya gave him the you-think-I-care face and then kick Shizuo in the face. The duo continued fighting while other passer-by made phone calls for ambulance. "There is a girl named Tainaka Ritsu who is dead." A passer-by told the paramedic who came at the scene. Well, the police were hopeless in this city. Why? No one can even catch Shizuo and Izaya, less arrest them. So the murder was left unsolved and no justice was brought to her. And for the HTT, the devastating news was unbearable especially for Ritsu's childhood friend, Mio. She swore that she will find out who's the culprit and will kill them. Little did she know, she is going to end her new found friend's life with her own hands.
