Chapter 1- Coming back surprise

So here I was outside of the Ikebukuro train station for the first time in three years. Ever since high school. everything seemed pretty normal from before I suppose. But then again the main fun part of this town happens at night so I guess I'll still have to wait and see. I picked my back pack from beside me and put it on before pulling out an address from my father about my mothers new apartment she just got.

I decided that I could hit up the town tomorrow since I was exhausted from flying from the states to Japan then getting on trains just to get here. I started to head off knowing my fair way around from before. i was excited and nervous to be back. something very rare for me to feel at the same time mind you. It wasn't that I was scared,living here most of my life I knew what to do and not to do by now.

Although things may have changed from back then but I wouldn't know until I met an old friend. I hadn't talked to any of them since I left so I had no clue what they were up to or even lived for that matter. I figured if I walked around looking for a job I'd run in to at least one of them. It'd be nice to walk into them and chat. I truly did miss this crazy town.

I turned down streets here and there until was sure I was about twenty minutes from my mothers apartment. I was glad she was doing okay after the divorce still. Dad said that she got a two bedroom place for me and her until I got enough money to move out on my own. At first I didn't want her to do that for me but knowing i had no other place to stay I figured it wouldn't hurt if I stayed just for a little bit.

It was then that I heard a loud shout of,"Izaayaa!". I stopped walking and suddenly a huge smile made it's way to my lips as well as a flutter in my chest. Speaking of old friends. I rushed to where I heard the yelling and sure enough there was Shizuo about to throw a trash can at Izaya who was smirking at him.

"Shi-chan! Iza-chan!",I shouted at them both. everyone who was gathered around looked over as well as the other two and I smiled,waving slightly. Shizuo looked over at me and his once angry face calmed as he set the object about to be thrown down. Izaya simply looked over as he seemed amused that I was here and that Shizuo stopped to acknowledge me. Although he probably already knew I was coming I could've cared less.

"Aki-chan! Your back",Izaya said walking towards me.

I felt my chest flutter again."Of course. Did you not want me back Iza?",I asked mocking being hurt although that possibility did hurt a little.

"Of course not! I missed my once amusing friend",he said as he stopped in front of me. I smiled before looking over at Shizuo who seemed ready to hurt Izaya again.

"Shizuo,come over please. I haven't seen you in a while",I said waving him over. He looked tense but slowly walked over to us. I knew he'd scold me later but I missed my friends.

"You hurt me Aki-chan",Izaya said making me turn back to him confused but still smiling."You didn't hug me like you always used to",he said. I remembered what he was talking about and shook my head.

"Were adults now. But I did miss you",I said feeling my cheeks rise in heat a little. His smirk got slightly bigger before Shizuo came to us but stood next to me with his eyes on me alone. I looked up at him smiling."I missed you too Shi-chan",I said. He nodded before taking out a cigarette and taking a blow.

"Indeed we are. You've changed quite a lot",Izaya said. Indeed I have. My old blonde hair was now black with blue bangs and highlights. My clothes had never been conservative but now they had a more mature look to it.

"Like it?",I said doing a spin for them.

"It fits you",Shizuo said with the cigarette in his mouth.

"Aw,does Shizuo-chan like somebody?",Izaya teased.

"Shut it you stupid flea",Shizuo snapped back getting angry once more. I decided that it was enough to see them today. Although I didn't want to leave just yet I didn't want my mother to worry for me.

"Well,it's nice to see you both again but I have to leave now",I said walking away from the soon to be fight scene. There was a feeling in me that I remembered and needed to think about. Something I put off to the side until now it was forced out.

I continued walking and hearing them argue before I paused and looked back. They looked over at me and I smiled."Oh,and if your going to stalk me again Iza,which I know you will,I'm giving you permission this time",I said before walking away. I knew he'd probably already know where I was heading but just in case. At least he had permission this time.

20 minutes later

So once I left the boys I went on home and finally arrived at my mothers apartment. It was big enough for two people diffidently. I just walked in the pace and sat my stuff down having read the note on the door that said she was out getting dinner and the key was under the mat. Yeah,a mat in an apartment building wasn't very sneaky but we wouldn't need it now that I was here.

I just sat my things in the living room and relaxed on the couch for the time being. I was on my cell phone telling my dad that I had arrived okay when the door opened and there was my mother carrying a bag with dinner in it.

"Darling!",she said happily as she went into the kitchen to set the bags down before she came rushing at me in a big hug that almost knocked me down. At least I knew where I gut most of my being from.

"Hey mom!",I said hugging back before she let me go and looked me up and down.

"You've grown up so much",she said smiling big.

"I know. You look the same as always though",I said laughing a little as she huffed and went back to the food.

"Oh hush. Or I might take back your favorite thing of all time",she said before reaching in the bag and pulling out same ramen. My eyes widened as I snatched it from her and ripped off the lid before I started to stuff it in my mouth.

"Oh go sit down before you choke. And don't make a mess",my mother scolded me. I just smiled happy now and went and sat down on the couch finishing my ramen before she even sat down.

"At least somethings haven't changed",she sighed as she sat next to me before eating her sushi.

"Not my fault I'm starving. I was hoping you'd have my ramen for me but I wasn't sure",I said leaning back after placing my now empty bowl on the coffee table.

"So dear",she said turning to me and taking small bites,"did you see any friends coming over?". I knew she might ask that question.

"Yeah,right when Shi-chan was about to throw a trashcan at Iza-chan",I said shaking my head remembering. I felt my mothers look on me and tilted my head at her probably guessing what she was going to say.

"Did you feel anything?",she asked serious now. I looked down and nodded. If there was anyone that knew the real depth of my feelings for a certain someone it was my mother. Before I left I told her everything everyday at dinner. She knew that I left to be with dad,get into my college and try to erase feelings that would never reciprocate. But now that I was back and just saw how handsome he still was...brought back memories.

My friends new I had feelings for him. Hell,he knew I had feelings for him. Threw it in my face a couple times when we were in school. It never bothered me. It hurt knowing the person he was he just couldn't feel for me and would think of me as a toy but I lived through it.

"I still love Iza-chan mom. And he's still the same if not worse than before. And I'm going to be his new favorite toy again. It hurts but as before I'll just get through it like before",I said before getting my things and going down the hall. I saw a room without a light on and new it was mine. I didn't mean to be rude and leave like that,but I didn't want to talk now. I was tired as hell anyways and I knew thinking about Izaya wouldn't help me in the first place.

So I think that was a pretty goof beginning to it. Reviews please!
