A reporter starts investigating Yuhei Hanejima's past and discovers the actor's brother and his reputation. Unfortunately Izaya doesn't like sharing his toys.

Contains: "established" relationship (they're dating but it's a secret), yaoi, M rating, yaoi, cursing, and maybe some yaoi. Both Shizaya and Izuo; i.e. seke relationship.

Disclaimer: I do NOT own Durarara! or its characters. If I did the anime would have been longer and had more Shizaya love-hate flirtations!

Izaya strolled down the street, humming a random song as he did, checking his phone occasionally. He was waiting for a response from Shizuo, hoping they could get together later. People stared at him as he went, almost skipping as he was, because he was Izaya Orihara and the infamous informant was rarely seen anywhere chaos did not gravitate to. So they avoided him, but he didn't care. His mind was full of his precious blonde.

Izaya and Shizuo had started going out just four months previously, but no one knew besides them. It had started when Izaya had begun teasing Shizuo with blowing kisses just before darting away and escaping death yet again. Then it turned into teasing him – a slap on the butt here, a lick on the neck there – before eventually Izaya started wanting longer encounters and more of the blonde's attention. He appeared in Ikebukuro more often, drawing attention to himself just to see the blonde. Shizuo noticed of course, for not even the famous monster of Ikebukuro was that dense, and it wasn't long before they were attacking each other lustfully in an alley.

Izaya's phone beeped and he opened the message, Shizuo answering that it would have to be Izaya's place if they met. Shizuo's place was full with the sound of construction from a few doors down. Izaya quickly agreed and there was a new spring in his step now.

They still fought in public, but in private that aggression was expressed through lust. They hadn't even gone on a proper date, just make-out sessions or dancing the horizontal tango. Despite that, Izaya knew he felt more for the monster than just lust, but wasn't about to admit it to the brute first. No that was something Shizu-chan had to initiate.

Izaya saw a man he didn't know cross his path who did not even glance at the unmistakable informant as he went. That puzzled Izaya enough to make him stop. He didn't know this man – a reporter judging by his outfit – and because he knew every face in Ikebukuro that was strange. Obviously the man was new, but something about him struck Izaya as on a mission, and the raven-haired man was always curious to what others were doing if it was interesting.

So he decided to follow the man on a whim. He also sent out texts to his sources to find out if any man matching his description had arrived in Ikebukuro recently, if yes then how, and to find out who he was. It was Izaya's habit to find out the person's goals himself, so he followed the man at a safe distance, replacing his eager expression with a more suitable bored and uncaring one.

The man didn't do anything in particular. He just went around as if enjoying the scenery, never asking directions or anything to indicate that he wasn't from around here. He stopped in a restaurant for dinner, and that reminded Izaya about his date later. He was going to get something sweet for Shizuo.

Izaya quickly put a tail on the man and waited until his tail arrived to leave the man behind to go shopping.
