Chapter 2: Calm Before the Storm
"I'm paranoid," I thought to myself. Why do I think this, you may ask? Well ever since the night a month ago where Izaya had a mental breakdown thus having to get him a therapist who he traumatized and Shizuo threatening to get his revenge on Amaya who got a restraining order which ended today well I guess nothing has been the same in Ikebukuro. There are no flying trashcans, no loud shouts of "IZAYAAAAA!" and less people have been jumping off buildings. Which, I never did understand but I just decided to think nothing of it.
So, basically, the two most dangerous men alive, whom I thought would be making mine and Amaya's lives hell by now had just up and disappeared. Oh but that's not only half the reason I'm paranoid. The main reason is because I feel like the creepy pedophile named Izaya Orihara has been stalking me.
How do I know it's him? Well he said he wouldn't leave my side and let's just say, everyday a random knife comes out of nowhere and almost hits my job partner. The poor boy screams like a girl and runs away every time. At first I had thought it was an accident, like maybe someone accidentally threw a knife? My mind of course kept hoping, but as the days went on and more knives started appearing frequently, I had to face the truth of what was going on.
Not paying attention I ran into a door, causing a large banging noise. "Ow," I said as I rubbed my head. Grumbling some lovely things, I walked inside. "Amaya, I'm back," I exclaimed. With no reply, I started to wonder. That was very strange of Amaya not to yell back.
Walking into the kitchen to investigate I found a note taped to the fridge. "Aya," the note read "I have decided to hide out in a cabin by Rainbow Lake, since there is a man with hulk like strength after me. Please do not worry I will be back soon. Make sure to tell hottie my heart belongs to him. Yours truly, Amaya."
"What the hell is this?" I fumed, chucking the note out the window and hitting some poor boy on a bike in the face causing him to run into a pole. The surrounding cars not expecting it ran into each other. Soon everyone was in panic. 'Oh darn it, I did it again' I thought, kind of worried, 'Oh well, I better go find Amaya.' I sighed, when will that girl learn? Walking towards the door, I sighed, this was going to be a long trip ahead.
(a/n time skip to Rainbow cabin. I am a lazy ass motherfucker.)
"TEN HOURS. IT TOOK ME TEN HOURS TO GET HERE. DO YOU REALIZE HOW MANY PERVERTS THERE ARE ON THE BUS? AND ALL YOU CAN SAY IS A SIMPLE 'HI'?" I screamed at the lazy girl lying on the couch. "Well, sorry. I didn't realize you were going to follow me. I just wanted to leave town for awhile since that one night, awhile ago, I've been feeling like I've been stalked by Shizuo." She replied with a bit of fear in her voice.
"Wait… You're being stalked too?" I blurted out with sudden shock. She stared at me, wide-eyed. Before she could reply, I thought of something. "You thought a cabin in the woods that is literally ten hours away from civilization would be safe from a stalker?" I exclaimed starting to panic.
"We have to get out of here." I screamed, running towards the door.
-Doorbell rings-
I stopped mid run and stared at the door with fear. "Oh, that must be the pizza man!" Amaya said, moving past me towards the door. "But… wait. Amaya, I'm sure that the pizza man wouldn't drive ten hours to deliver a pizza to the middle of nowhere." I said, slowly backing away towards the backdoor. "Aya, why are you freaking out? When I open this door I doubt it's going to be a psycho killer waiting, so relax." Amaya said, in a calm voice.
I watched her open the door to reveal the one and only Shizuo Heiwajima, with a pizza in his hand and an unconscious pizza man in the other.
"Oh, thanks for the pizza. Keep the change." Amaya said, shutting the door, without even the slightest recognition of who just answered the door. "Uh, Amaya... I don't think that was the pizza man and I think I better leave now." I murmured softly before fear took over making me run in the direction of the back door and into something. "What the..." I yelled at the sudden collision.
"Oh, Aya, I never knew you wanted me this bad" a silky smooth voice said. "HELL NO." I screamed, pushing the person away when I finally got a good look at the person I wanted to cry. There, right in front of me, was Izaya Orihara. "HOTTIE, you came for me!" Amaya exclaimed from the other side of the room. Well I guess it's about time she realized he was here. I sighed, "Why are you here?" I asked.
"Well, for starters, this is my cabin you two are occupying. Did your friend not even tell you?" Izaya questioned with a slight smirk. I turned to face Amaya. "You knew about this?" I screamed at her. "Well I didn't expect you to come. You can't blame a girl for trying to get a man like that." Amaya shrugged. "I'm leaving," I said sharply, walking towards the door. Opening the door I was faced with a very pissed off Shizuo. 'Shit I forgot about that' I thought.
"You think I would just let you get away with shutting the door in my face?" He growled. On instinct I shut the door again. Sadly, Shizuo's foot stopped the door from closing all the way.
"I'm sorry, this is all Amaya's fault. Not mine. So please, calm down," I cried desperately. I heard him sigh. "Fine, just open the door. I am tired of it getting shit in my face," he grumbled. Sighing in defeat, I opened the door and let him in.
"What are you doing here, brute?" I turned to see a very annoyed Izaya glaring intensely at Shizuo. "Revenge," Shizuo stated, bluntly. I swore I heard a large gulp from Amaya.
"Great to know, now leave." Izaya pointed towards the door.
This is going to take awhile, I thought looking at the window, "um, guys?" I said.
"WHAT." They all screamed in unison.
"It's... snowing. We're stuck in here." I screamed.
Well fuck. The room was deadly quite for a few minutes. But it felt like forever. "You're joking, right?" Amaya said nervously. "Sadly, I'm not" I said, trying to distance myself from the crowd of crazy people, who were now preoccupied with the freshly falling snow. "I fuckin' hate snow," Amaya sighed and kicked the door.
"Well, its your fault we're here in the first place," I yelled at her. She turned and looked at me with a thoughtful gaze that soon turned mischievous. "Well, I guess being stuck here isn't all bad, come on guys let me take you to your room," Amaya volunteered, grabbing boy guys hands. I watched as she dragged the men away and wondered what she was doing.
"HELL NO," I heard both the men scream at once. I quickly ran to the room to discover Amaya wanted to stay in the room with the two men. "Amaya, you are not staying in the same room as them. There are only two bedrooms in this place, and you're sharing a bedroom with me." I said, taking her hand dragging her out of the room and closing the door. After I walked out of the room I swear I heard the two boys yelling at each other.
Oh dear lord, there's going to be a murder tonight.
(a/n time skip to 1:00am)
Waking up to the sound of movement I looked up to see Amaya in a strange costume. "Amaya, what are you doing?" I asked in confusion. She shushed me as she walked out of the room. Not more than a minute later I heard very girly screams coming from the room the boys were bunking in. Then a very frightened Amaya running towards me.
"What the hell happened?" I questioned. But before I could get an answer the two boys ran in the room at full speed "WHERE IS SHE?"
"Someone explain what the fuck is going on!" I screamed.
"Well, that bitch scared the shit out of me," Shizuo said looking around, "now where the fuck is she!"
"I love humans, but sadly this one human is going to have to feel my wrath." Izaya smiled.
I heard a shriek coming from the closet. 'You idiot', I thought. But before they could get to the closet, they looked out the window and saw someone dressed as Slenderman. I was confused. "Um how did Amaya get out there?" I looked at the window. "Guys… I'm right here." Amaya said, stepping out of the closet.
Awkward silence.
We all screamed at once. But before we knew what was happening, we all blacked out.
