Quick AN: Neko here fresh and live for the first time nyan~ 'ω')ﾉ Anyways, this story is based by (again) a cute mini story by 七 三 (pixiv) all credits to the artist, scanlations, translations, etc. Neko will give you some of her OWN ideas soon enough. (`･ω･´)ゞ Yessir~ This is in Shizuo's POV.

Disclaimer: I don't own Durarara! nor its characters. Or this doujinshi.

In the gazebo and garden of the Orihara property, Izaya decided to show his face in my work again..

"...Is it okay?" I asked unsure with an annoyed facial feature, leaning an arm on the edge. I was wearing my usual attire of a fresh white dress shirt and brown trousers. "A young master personally serving tea."

"It's fine, it's fine~" The raven required with a smile, a hand in his pocket. He held a tea-tray asset for tea for two in the other. Today he was wearing his grey suit and auburn tie.

"Well, you're in the way of my work, so go home." I denied the offer of tea.

"Eeeeh, how meeean~ Well for now your job is to drink tea with me." He reported back.

'I'm gonna kill him sooner than later...' So I ended up having tea with him..

"Like I said, are you such an idiot that you willfully come into other people's rooms to drink tea!" I barked at him.

He looked bored as he casually sipped his tea looking at me with those crimson irises. "It's fine... It's thanks to me that my servant is able to drink such expensive tea he would never be able to taste otherwise." Why that little-

I leaned in a bit with my fist in front on the table. "It's not fine! This is making me skip out of work and you, young master are being persistent and not listening to a word I say and it's making me angry!" Already having a vein throb visible.

Izaya pointed to my untouched cup. "Your tea's getting cold, and after I went to all the trouble too." He said lazily, ignoring the subject.

"...! ... ...I'll drink but still." I sighed with defeat, having a sip of the warm liquid. .. It needs sugar..

The Next Day;

In the morning, this time the girls came into my daily routes of watering the plants. "Shizuo-saaaa-n~ hey, hey, hey, make us some flower crowns! Lots of them!" Mairu insisted with a big smile. Wearing a flowing green lined dress with a grey ribbon, a bonnet and brown tights.

There clinging on to her younger sister. Kururi wore a black frilly with white lace dress with a matching headband. "Please..." She timidly finished her sister's sentence.

Slightly confused of why, but I answered with "Ok... Wait in my room later and I'll make some for you." to them. Unlike Izaya they don't really annoy me. I nibbled on my cigarette of the day. Well at least Kururi doesn't..

"We saw some of them the other day and they were so cute!" Mairu added on as the explanation why.

Taking a bucket for the flowers. "Aaah, I see." I reported back.

Back in the gazebo, silent occurred as I swiftly was making the flower crowns delicately. The crown so far was made of varieties of flowers of colour it twinkled with grace. Theading through the crown, a blanked face Izaya gave a bored stare at my work sipping from his cup. "... I'm a nice person, so you know I'll listen to you... So what the hell are you doing, Shizu-chan?" He insisted.

Of course he would be here again. "How should I know. The young mistresses requested it." I replied continuing to thread the flowers into a crown. "Alright. One down."

"Those two..." Izaya lead off while setting down his cup.

"It's your house, you should help too." I complained giving him an irritated look.

"Why me?" He gave an annoyed look back, raising an eyebrow. He switched positions to resting his chin on his palm.

"Then leave me the hell alone." I answered.

"Fine~ I'll do it." He gave a light 'hmmph'. "But, I have no idea how to make these. How do you do it?" the raven asked.

Looking at the new bunch of flowers to use I answered him."It's not like there's any specific way to learn how to do it. You just turn it in a circle like this and feel it out." I explained.

"Hey Shizu-chan, was that supposed to be human speech? Explain it again, I don't get it." Izaya taunted me.

He's so dead-"Shut up, I'm going to kill you!" I barked back. Moments later with a sigh, I picked up the bunch from before and began making the second crown. "Here, watch closely. It'll be dark by the time you finally do it." I assured him while I tied the flowers together.

Izaya watched closely with a peaceful smile on his face. "Hmmmm... How beautiful." he added.

"...Hey, why are you always coming here? Shouldn't you be busy with your high-class friends." I questioned looking up at him, curious.

Izaya's smile became a grin "...I wonder..." he finished off with. Without a quick reply I thought that I would continue on the crown. Then I noticed that he stood up and was dangerously close to my face. "Do you want to know? But what would you do about it when you know." He said smirking. Not breaking eye contact with me. "For example, what will do you do to me if I tell you?"

This guy always speaks in circles, so I often don't get what he's saying.. But...

"For example... If it weren't for social standing or my parentage. Would you leave?" He says with a serious face. I dropped my cigarette on the floor and gave Izaya a shocked face. "Pffft.." Then the bastard starts shaking, trying so hard not to laugh. "Shizu-chan, stop with that suffering face... I'm joking, so seriously, stop. Thinking doesn't suit you." He starts chuckling."Pfffft.. I can't handle it..." As he holds his mouth and puts out his hand as a signal to stop. You got to be kidding me- My face went dark and a vein popped out.

"Oh, is that right? I hope you choke and die on your laughter." I growled out.

Settling in with the laughter Izaya replied with "You're so nice~ Shizu-chan. Mmph." I covered his mouth with my hand.

"Bastard." Still annoyed with his attitude. "I told you to stop calling me that. I'll break your jaw." I threaten him. Leaning into his face, he looked slightly bored again.

He's always smiling and laughing in order to hide his real intentions. I understand at least that much about him.

After letting him go, he went on and on again... "What's wrong, are you shy? That wasn't a compliment. How gross." Another vein hit it's way to my face.

Aah, whatever. it's not like we're dating. This guy's completely bothersome, but I think it's just his nature.

'I'm getting irritated with this...' ... 'rustles' My eyes noticed and met the finished crown from before, I began reaching for it.

"Besides- I need employees. I can't do the cooking and washing by myself, you know. Well, even if I hate it, it's the safest here, riding my parent's coat tails like a caged bird. There's no unnecessary risks..." As Izaya went on, resting his chin in his hand again with his eyes closed. Eventually through that speech, I plopped the flowers on his head. He gave me a surprised face when he opened his eyes again seconds later. It shut him up at least..

The crown gave its twinkle while I re-lit a new cigarette. Through the corner of my eye I looked to Izaya. Silent fell. "..." More awkward silent.

"...What. The hell is this?" Izaya questioned referring to the crown, pointing up to it.

"What. Shut up." Closing my eyes to try to block him out.

Taking off the crown, resting his forehead on his hands. "Aaah~~~~ Seriously. Shizu-chan, die." He sighed out, with a hint of blush.

"You die." I plainly stated back, continuing to smoke facing the other way.

A distance away, we have two figures spying on the two love birds.

Mairu peeked from the tree. "Kuru-nee... What do you make of that." She asked with a twinkle.

Peering out behind the tree like her twin "...Approve." (Absolutely love it.) Kururi replied holding her nose.

AN: Waaaaah~ Neko's finally done the first part! (ﾉ ´ w ` )ﾉ

I'll see you again in the second act nyan. ・ω・)ﾉ:｡
