Okay... Hey! That street sign looks sort of familiar!
Wait... that's not a street sign it's a telephone pole...
Oh wait! Is that Russian Su- No. That's just a fast food restaurant.
Dammit, now I remember why I put up with Shinra when we walk to school... I have no sense of direction whatsoever.
"Fuck..." I muttered, twirling my hair around my pale fingers. A red ribbon wrapped through the braid. I had found it in my locker when I went to go grab my stuff after my speech...
My speech.
The mere thought of it made me snicker, yeah, not many had expected that from me. Well, if you wanted me to be specific the only person that could have even guessed that I would do something like that was Kadota, and even then he was still worried, he knew how I was when I was trying to be bold, he would tell me 'Miyu, I hate to be the one to break it to you but when you're bold, you're evil. I'm not kidding, so stop laughing. You come up with the rudest things to say and then say it so bluntly with that amused glint in your eye, you wonder why Shizuo gets pissed off when you're bold, it's because you remind him of Izaya.'
Izaya...
I hardly knew the guy. I remember the first time I met Shizuo he had been in the middle of a fight with the raven, but I just sort of brushed him off. He didn't amuse me like Shizuo did (I mean, seriously, who wouldn't be amused by someone that says they hate violence and yet has a bad temper and inhumane strength?) so I ignored him.
I remember walking out of the school's library with Kadota, he had been helping me study for a Science test (E = MC Square, or somethin' like that),
then one of the school's flag pole's slices in between us, shreading at the sleeve of my uniform but not cutting it off. I remember Kadota sighing and muttering something about 'Again?' and then I looked up, seeing Shizuo attempting to hit Izaya with the other school's flag poles. I had stared at them for at least five minutes, and then sighing I literally walked in between the two, sat down and started reading..
Yeah, right inbetween them.
Hey! Don't look at me crazy, they had both been so bewildered by a random brunette sitting in the middle of their fight that they stopped for a minute, I gave them both a dead pan look and asked 'so, sexual tension, huh?' and of course, I was yelled at for that but it gave Izaya enough time to get away and Shizuo to calm down.
And that's how I became friends with one of Ikebukuro's strongest, and I still think Izaya looks like a pedophile.
I blinked when I suddenly slammed into someone's chest.
I stumbled back a few steps, the books that were clutched in my arms slid out of my arms and landed on the ground, I blinked up seeing a flash of inky black hair and auburn eyes.
Huh, speak of the devil. (No pun intended)
He looked down at me, that weird cheshire grin on his face, I quirked an eyebrow at him before bending down to pick up my books I had dropped. Then I stood up right, my usual apathetic expression crossing my face.
"...I still think you look like a pedophile."
He stared at me, crimson eyes blinking, all hints of mischeivousness gone, and I stared back a bored glaze in my eyes. The thing was, I had a feeling he was one of those guys, those ones that didn't take insults lightly. So I was kinda shocked when he started laughing.
"Oh~ You-You're so interstin-ng~" He managed through his giggles, I gave him a deadpan look as he straightened up, I mentally scowled at the fact he was at least a head taller than me. I probably only reached his chin, as sad as that is for an eighteen-year-old girl.
"So, are you lost?" He asked, wiping away a /non-existent/ tear.
I scowled. "No. I just momentarily misplaced myself." I said, bluntly, my usual monotone draining any sort of color from my voice. This guy didn't piss me off he just seemed like some sort of stalker or something... I don't know and I don't plan to find out either.
"Momentarily misplaced yourself, hm? Maybe I could help you find yourself then?"
"Maybe I can help you be normal but I doubt that's gonna happen eit-"
Now, think for me. What would any rational person do upon seeing their best friend with their worst enemy?
Oh, that's right. Uproot a vending machine and throw a fit.
"IZAYAAAAAAAAA!"
