Shizuo's POV

"Here are his meds. Remember, give him the meds. DO NOT FORGET IT, UNDERSTAND?!" Shinra warned. "Okay, Shinra! Now will you stop yapping and call a cab? I can't carry him all the way.."

Shinra sighed and reached for his phone. I opened the treatment room, seeing Izaya back to sleep. I sighed in relief because if he's awake and we go back to my apartment, he wouldn't like it. He would do anything to refuse it.

I closed the door and started to stuff Izaya's meds in my pockets while waiting for the cab to arrive. 'Should I stop by his apartment and get his stuff? Nah, I don't have the key... Never mind..' My train of thought roamed by.

"Shizuo. The cab's here. We'll send you two down." Shinra informed. "Thanks, Shinra." I went inside the room and unplug the IV drip from Izaya's arm and carry him bridal style. Well, I really don't want to this, but hell, the last thing I want to do is to injure someone who's already injured.

We went downstairs by the elevator and headed outside to the cab. But 'gently' place Izaya down on the back seat and closed the door. I head to the other side of the cab, giving the driver my address and said a quick goodbye to Shinra and Celty and we're off.

Kishitani Shinra, an underground doctor who lives with Celty, who was found by his father while she's searching for her head. He is pretty much a friend because back in high school, we hang out a lot. He and Kadota were the only ones who are not scared of me even though I'm violent. Although he has a mouth that can talk as fast as the Shinkansen, I always try my best to not get pissed off.

When we arrived, I paid the driver and lifts Izaya out of the cab. I feel that sometimes Izaya clutch my clothes tighter and snuggled on to my chest. I blushed when he does that and quickens my steps to my front door.

I opened the door, hurried to my bedroom and carefully place the flea on the bed. I am pretty tired so I lay down beside him without changing my clothes. I saw the flea shivered and covered him with a blanket.

Great, now I'm freezing. I got no other blankets so I got no choice. I just sleep like this. I won't get a cold, since I'm a monster. *yawn* Good night.


Izaya's POV

After they left from my room, I tried to listen to their conversations. Alas, that baka Shinra closed the door. Great, now I can't eavesdrop them. Well, I can't even move so I'll just go back to sleep.

A while later I felt a presence inside the room. The figure just stood there and stared at me. I was too sleepy to open my eyes. I felt myself being lifted and the same warmth from earlier wraps around me. Ahhh.. It feels so comfortable and secure. I've never been this safe since the twins were born.

The owner of the warmth left, and I was sleeping in a sitting position. I guess we're in a car, cause i can feel it moving. I grunted when the car hits a bump. Itai... The car stopped , I guess we reached our destination. Please, please, please, be not a hospital...

The warmth came back and I clutch tighter and snuggled into it. Ahhh... It feels soooo good... I was put on a bed and man, it is FREEZING. Suddenly, a blanket covered me, warm and toasty. I continued on sleeping, even though I really wanted to see who carried me, where the hell am I and etc, etc...


"Urgh.. Argh... Ah! Ah! Itai.. No, no more! I can't! Hurts... Enough... Uhh... Mou!" Shizuo woke up hearing screams. 'What the hell? Where does it come from?' Thoughts began when Shizuo woke up. "Ow.. That flea is going to get it when he heals... Maybe it's a bad idea to sleep on the couch. Next time I'll sleep on the floor." Mumbled Shizuo. The screams continued.

"It's coming from my room... Izaya?" Shizuo opened the door, revealing the silhouette of the raven under the blanket, screaming his lungs out. "Izaya! What the hell? What's wrong? Where does it hurt? Tell me! Izaya!" The blonde shook Izaya, trying to wake him up. Tears began to roll down from the raven's cheek and there's where Shizuo panicked.

"Oh, fuck. Izaya, wake up! Wake up! Come on... Wake up!" Shizuo keep on trying. He puts the raven's head on his lap and slapped him lightly. "Shi...zu..o.. Shi..zu..o.." muttered the raven, sobbing. Shizuo is surprised when Izaya called his real name. "Izaya... Wake up, will you?" Whispered the blonde brute at Izaya's ear.

The screams died down and so does the crying. The raven never woke up, just continued his slumber. Shizuo sighed of relief when he heard the soft breathing of his archenemy. "I'm so tired... Guess I'll sleep here too.." He leaned on the bed's head and closed his eyes. He gave the black locks a couple of strokes before he fell asleep.


The sunlight shone brightly through the window and landed on Izaya's face. He grunted, cursing the light and opened his eyes slowly. He blinked a few times and scanned the room and the situation he's in. 'This... Is NOT my room. Wha...? Shizu-chan? I'm sleeping on Shizu-chan's lap? Uwaaaa...' He stared at Shizuo's face, admiring his looks.

'He does look humane when he sleeps. He's... So... Handsome...' Izaya lifts his unhurt arm, he touches the dyed blonde locks. 'Soft...' He proceeded to touch the blonde's face, his cheek, nose and finally the lips. The blonde frowned at the coldness that's touching him, causing the raven to stop his actions.

'Phew, that was close..' He look at his own fingers that touched Shizuo and kissed it. "I had an awful dream... But suddenly I felt warm, secured.. Like someone is telling me it's okay, hugging me, loving me. He raises his arm, fingers apart to block the sunlight.

"Who am I kidding? Who would love someone like me, a demon, a psycho and a freak? Heh.. Who would?" He whispered to himself. A drop of tear trickled down his cheek. He wiped it away while chuckling to himself.
