This is a Durarara! fan fiction. This is in no way intended to be yaoi. I do not do yaoi; if you do then that's your thing. This is simply meant to be a sweet scene, thank you.

Shizuo hated being late. Being late getting home that is. He didn't mind staying out late or not getting enough sleep or whatever. That wasn't it. It was that his younger brother would try to stay awake until he got home. That's what Shizuo hated. Kasuka's life was way too busy for him to be staying awake and not getting enough sleep. He had important things to do. Why couldn't he just go to sleep? Shizuo knew the reason why. One time a while ago, Shizuo had gotten himself injured again. By the time he got home, it was late at night. Kasuka had gotten up for some water. And… He saw his injured brother. He then told Shizuo that he either had to go to Shinra or let himself bandage him. Why can't he just do it himself? Because we all know Shizuo's knowhow of medical is awful. (Remember his fight with Seiji with the pens?) Since then, Kasuka really couldn't go to sleep until his brother was home. At least it was incentive to try to get home on time and try not to get injured so much.

Today was one of those days though. One of those days that he couldn't help but get home late. Shizuo wasn't sure about Kasuka's schedule tomorrow but he hoped it wasn't too bad. After all, Shizuo had a really hard time figuring out if he actually was feeling really tired or not. Sometimes he wished that his brother was more expressive. He had him figured out pretty well but he hated playing stupid guessing games where he didn't have a clue what he was feeling.

Anger began to bubble as he reached his house. It was that stupid Izaya's fault that he was late, dang it! Sometimes Shizuo really did think that all his problems were in some way caused by Izaya. Just like this one! He tried to shake away his anger; he didn't want to vent on his brother when he was probably exhausted. He'd vent later, probably by bending some giant pieces of metal that he had stored for this very purpose. Kasuka's the one who told him to that he should do that to vent. It was pretty effective.

Shizuo walked into the door. He expected his brother to come towards him when he first walked in but he didn't. Had he fallen asleep? Shizuo ventured into the house further. He soon found his brother, sitting curled up a chair at the table. Shizuo knew that he was sleeping when he didn't stir when he approached. If he fell asleep then he was totally exhausted; which didn't make Shizuo feel any better. Shizuo sighed, picking his brother up gently and taking him to bed. All the while thinking about how he was totally gonna make Izaya pay for this.
