A/N : Well...I like the couple, but I couldn't think of a single plot for them. Someone requested a IzayaxMikado fic, but I seem to be fail at it. So, here's a series of one shots/scenes my mind came up with during the process. Enjoy~


The day started out beautiful enough. Mikado felt refreshed after waking up that Saturday and went to open the curtains so that the morning sunshine can pour in into his small apartment. The birds chirping sweetly, the spring breeze blowing gently and Orihara Izaya's face was sticking to his window.

Suddenly, this Saturday morning did not seem so beautiful anymore.

Mikado silently closed his curtains, counted to three and opened them again. Nope, there was still an annoying informant's smirking face perpetually imprinted on the window pane.

"…"

He closed the curtains hastily and went to his futon to grab his ever faithful cell phone. He quickly dialed his best friend's number, only to realize belatedly that Masaomi is not in Ikebukuro anymore. Clicking noises started to resound in the unfortunately small apartment, making Mikado feel claustrophobic. He backed away from the door as much as possible when the impatient clicking stopped and the poor door was kicked open instead. The high school boy felt absolute dread looming over him when Izaya's head popped in and turned towards him; the uninvited guest's eyes smiled deviously. Mikado gulped audibly.

Masaomi…wherever you are…I hate you for not taking me with you!

"Whe-where are we going, Izaya-san?" questioned Mikado nervously as the deviant informant pushed him out of his apartment and lead him down the stairs. Izaya didn't answer his question. Instead, he pulled out a set of keys from his parka's pocket and went towards a sleek black car parked at the side of the old building, humming and twirling the car keys using his right index finger. The raven-haired man opened the locks and slipped in, motioning the teen to follow his steps.

Despite his better judgment, Mikado opened the door to the passenger's side and sat down meekly. He looked around tentatively, wondering how much this car costs. Most definitely not cheap.

"Nice car, isn't it? It's a Lamborghini Murciélago." said Izaya amusedly when he noticed Mikado's apprehension. He started up the car and reversed it, smoothly going out of the housing area and going towards the highway. By then, Mikado can certainly say that the car does not have some 8-bit price tag attached to it and silently wished he didn't scratch anything.

"Aa—ah…yeah, yeah it is. Um, I didn't know you have a car, Izaya-san?" Mikado looked at Izaya when the man chuckled in reply. He made a left exit.

"Well I can't really bring this baby around every time I come to play with Shizu-chan, you know? He'd throw away my hard work high in the air in 3 seconds flat, literally! Besides, I prefer walking and the trains; lots of my beloved human around." Mikado laughed a little at the mention of the ex-bartender's probable reaction. The man can really throw his weight around!

Relaxing, Mikado decided to ask Izaya again about their destination, but all he got was a click of the tongue from the older man as an admonishment. "Really now, spontaneous isn't your middle name, is it?"

"Um…well…"

"Okay, okay. If you must know, I needed to tail a certain suspicious couple around because Shiki-san asked me to…Not that you know who he is anyway, but anywho…"

"A part of the Awakusu-Kai," stated Mikado, his eyes sharp and staring forward; a fraction of his true nature finally showing through. Izaya glanced at the high-school student in surprise before laughter broke the heavy silence between them.

"Ah, you are getting more interesting by the minute. How about working with me sometimes? I wouldn't mind having your insights for some matters concerning my job. I'll pay you well."

"No thanks, everyone knows you're bad luck," Mikado countered. He knew Izaya enough to not involve himself with the man any more than necessary. Yet, he vaguely wondered why he was in the man's car in the first place if that was the case. He came to the conclusion that maybe he was a bit of a pushover himself.

"Ouch, that really hurts, Mikado-kun!" said Izaya with a mock hurt tone. He turned his eyes back to the road. When Mikado didn't answer his jab, he pouted. "Boo~ Mikado-kun's no fun!"

"About the couple?" prompted the teen impatiently. If possible, Mikado didn't want anything to do with the Awakusu-kai as they were dangerous in a whole different level. But he couldn't help but feel intrigued as to why Izaya needed him along just to spy on this particular people.

"Hmm…well. It seems they were going to meet someone about their business transaction. Something about human trafficking…and, let's face it. I'd get bored if I tailed them alone, so I brought you with me to keep my boredom at bay!"

At that comment, Mikado's expression changed from serious to stunned to indignation and finally to bewilderment. "So you forced me to follow you to keep you entertained?"

Izaya merely smirked back. "Yup!"

"I-Izaya-san!"

"I don't have many friends, okay! You're the only one who I could think of!"

Mikado couldn't believe his bad luck. Out of all the things in the world he could do to waste his weekend, he just had to be Izaya's company and tail whoever the couple are around. Heck, the couple didn't have anything to do with him or Dollars! He really wished he had legged it instead of opening the passenger's door. A sudden growl of the stomach from Mikado sent Izaya into another howling fit of laughter.

"I guess we should stop for breakfast first, hmm?"

"Whatever. You're paying."


A/N : Originally, it was supposed to be a multi-chapter thing with Izaya kidnapping Mikado saying that he was bored if he'd have to tail the suspicious couple alone. When in actual truth, there was no suspicious couple. Izaya just decided to follow any random couple on a date as an excuse to go on a date with Mikado.

Gah...Too bad I have writer's block with this one. Buuuuuuuut...I can write more if I had some ideas. *hinthintnudgenudge*
