I present to you a new story! It's a songfic (kind of) and I was supposed to make it into a oneshot but then I wanted to include more songs, plus I'm anything but oneshots (i am madaldal/talkative) ^_^" It's not exactly an AU but anyways I hope you like it!

I do not own Durarara or any song mentioned in this fic.

The dark sky found itself cradling the city of Ikebukuro as the winter season allowed the sun to set sooner. It was colder now and by 8:45 p.m. the people were in a hurry to make it back to their warm homes. However one man was in no rush. Rather he was walking as if contemplating about the world's mysteries, with an angry and somewhat forlorn look on his face with his cigarette in between his lips. The few people that remained stayed out of his way for fear of being sent to the moon but that worked well for him.

"Damn that flea bastard..." Shizuo muttered angrily to himself. "Playing with people's lives like that. Who the hell would believe that he is capable of love?! Let alone to me?!" He continued walking in all directions, zigzagging through alleyways hoping that the answer would become clear to him. Taking deep drags of his cigarette, he allowed the scenes from a while ago to replay itself.

That godforsaken flea is here again, he thought as his nose twitched. His poker face shed away and was replaced by his regular angry I-hate-Izaya face. Surely enough when he turned to his left, the annoying informant clad in black was there, calmly making his way through the crowd with his smirk in place. They made eye contact and Izaya called out to him.

"Ne Shizu-chan!~ It's a beautiful day isn't it?" The crowd immediately parted, giving them their space. Obviously it's because they valued their life.

"What the fuck do you want, Izaya?" Shizuo growled. The past three weeks have been a relatively peaceful one for Shizuo since not once did the pest bother him. But now that peace was broken by his presence.

"It's not so much of what I want, is it? But then again I guess it is. Anyway is it so wrong if I just wanted to state a simple fact about the weather? You can't be that uncivilized, but I could wrong." Izaya was getting closer now and Shizuo tried to keep himself from hurling a street sign to his face. In a crowded place, there was a higher risk of him getting people killed so it definitely took every will power within him to restrain himself when Izaya stopped right in front of him.

"I'm in no mood for your games, stupid flea. What the fuck are you up to?"

"If I told you that I have a proposal I have to make with you that we could discuss over a theoretical cup of coffee, would you agree to it?~" That devilish glint...there must be some kind of horrible plot! Shizuo snorted, lips quirking up in a smirk. Izaya gave a small pout.

"Ha! Like hell! You have some kind of evil plot going on right now, isn't there?" Izaya shrugged his shoulders and sighed, looking disheartened.

"Oh well, since it can't be helped." Smirk back on his face, Izaya slashed Shizuo's breast pocket and ran off with the envelope that held Shizuo's earnings for that week.

"WHAT THE-"

Izaya gave a playful wink and teased, "Catch me if you can, Shizu-chan!~"

With his battle cry, he began to chase after him. When the area was loose enough with less people, he ripped off a streetlight and hurled it at him. Izaya dodged it and threw his knives...you've been in Ikebukuro long enough you should know how it goes. Shizuo lost track of Izaya, but following his scent led him to Raira Academy. It was closed for the day because of some kind of holiday. Using the parkour skills he acquired from chasing after the informant, he reached the roof of the building where sure enough the flea sat waiting.

"Ah I knew you'd find me here!~ You've got great tracking skills! Probably even better than any breed of hunting dog.~"

"Shut it flea!" he said, grabbing the raven by the collar. "Give me back my salary and I probably won't send you flying."

"But you will throw me off this building, plummeting to my death?~" he chuckled. "I'm quite serious though, I have a proposal." He handed Shizuo his envelope back which honestly caught him by surprise. This was suspicious...

"Any proposal you make will probably result in utter catastrophe and hell." Izaya wasn't smirking, but he was smiling. Legit smiling. This made Shizuo kind of wary.

"It probably will, but nonetheless I'll tell you. I propose that we should start dating each other." This caught him by surprise. He was utterly speechless.

"What the fuck are you playing at?!" he yelled bashing his head into Izaya's. He cringed a bit but kept smiling.

"I propose we start dating. I've decided to humble myself and allowed myself to open up myself to you. Can you believe that? To put it bluntly, I really, really like Shizu-chan. You could say I love you, probably a bit more than my humans.~"

"That life ruiner is toying with me" he grumbled. "No way in hell! He's got a fucked up plan that'd probably result in me going to jail or worse! DAMMIT!" He didn't realize that through his aimless wandering he somehow found himself in front of a cafe. It was a pretty large cafe. It must be popular, he thought and let himself in. The cafe smelled like chocolate and coffee and the lights were dimmed, save for a single spotlight pointed at the piano. He ordered strawberry cake and strawberry milk. He wasn't really paying attention until the singer took the stage.

The singer played the piano as he sang while another person played guitar. His voice was smooth and sort of cool. He had a very jazzy quality in his voice and the way he sang had an almost lullaby effect Shizuo, calming him down.

~Come away with me and we'll kiss, on a mountaintop. Come away with me and I'll never stop loving you.~

The man's hair was slicked back and he wore a mask that obscured the top half of his face, making it impossible for Shizuo to identify the seemingly familiar figure. He stayed a short while relishing the applause before bowing and leaving the stage. Shizuo wasn't much of a music lover, but this man somehow turned him into one.

Rate and review. The song: watch?v=KvcV7664gy8&list=PL774u30YLfmPXflh9rTcgseiEdblX4s27&index=10. This really was a spur of the moment kind of fic because I missed my older playlists TTwTT. HOPE YOU ENJOYED!
