First night! Enjoy!
'Follow me, newbie' Shizuo said to Izaya, sounding annoyed, pissed off and resigned all at once. 'We have to be in our cells as soon as that bloody thing goes off.' Izaya followed Shizuo, like a terrified duck follows its mama (a very blood thirsty, abusive mama), to one of the unrecognisable metal doors along the corridors. As soon as the two of them were in the doors were locked by one of the guards. Izaya peeked over Shizuo's shoulder at the room. It was small, but there was enough living space for two people. There was a bunk bed pressed against one of the white walls, with two identical white covers on top. The bottom bunk's covers were tousled and untidy while the top's lay perfectly straight. A tiny bared window right below the ceiling didn't let in any light and a single bulb swung above Izaya's head. A small table with two chairs stood next to the bed and a door led to, Izaya assumed, the bathroom.
Shizuo walked over to his bed and opened a shelf beneath it, taking out a pair of black boxers, before he straightened and looked at Izaya in distaste.
'Okay, listen up kid. I haven't shared a room with person for the ten years since I've been here and to say I'm unhappy about this is an understatement. Hopefully you'll be out of here soon but for now; no crying because you're homesick or you will sleep in the bathtub. No talking to me, no wasting the water, you get the top bunk and you keep to the top bunk, keep your drama out of the room and basically stay out of my way. Got that?'
'Y-yeah' Izaya whispered, clutching his arms around his middle.
'Great, you're PJ's are in the drawer next to mine. Lights out in fifteen minutes.' Thanking the lords that he had taken a shower that morning he watched Shizuo disappear into the bathroom and when he heard the water turn on he breathed out, and then shivered. He realised, horrified, that his eyes were stinging and tears were threatening to spill. He wiped them away furiously.
Stop it, idiot! You don't want to sleep in the bathroom, do you!?
He quickly knelt down and pulled the drawer open. Inside he found a few pairs of underwear, a spare jumpsuit, two white t-shirts, a pair of black boxers like Shizuo's and an extra white t-shirt, bigger than the others, meant for sleeping. Izaya didn't bother putting his boxers on and stayed in his underwear since the PJ t-shirt was long enough to brush his thighs. He climbed into bed and under the covers. He stayed with his eyes open for a few minutes, trying to think of something nice when the light winked out. Izaya yelped and shot up in the bed.
'Chill, it's just light out' Shizuo grumbled, closing the bathroom doors. In the dark Izaya could just about make out his top-less outline. He disappeared beneath him and then all was quiet. Izaya didn't think he would sleep at all.
It seemed that Izaya only closed his eyes when the light turned on again and the shrill sound boomed from the speakers again. Izaya groaned and covered his head with his small pillow. There was a similar groan from the bottom bunk before a sharp kick was delivered to Izaya's lower back through the thin mattress.
'Get up, newbie' was all Shizuo said before disappearing in the bathroom. Izaya crawled out of bed, hearing the tap turn on and off. He quickly pulled out a white t-shirt and a jumpsuit. He took his shirt off and was about to pull on the other one when Shizuo excited the bathroom, stretching and yawning.
'AH!' Izaya yelped, covering himself. Shizuo raised an eyebrow.
'God, you're such a girl' he said, pulling a t-shirt of his own over his abs and tying his jumpsuit around his waist. He was gone in a few seconds. Izaya finished dressing, cursing his stupidity. Now that the lights were on and the monster out Izaya noticed a piece of paper taped to his bunk. He ripped if off and scanned it.
07:00 – 08:00: breakfast in the hall.
Where the hell was the hall!?
As if by magic the answer appeared before him in the form of a tall, sandy haired boy walking in through the now open cell doors.
'Hi, I'm Walker!' The boy said. 'I've been instructed to show you to the hall by Shinra.'
Izaya breathed out and nodded his head.
'Thanks' he said.
Yay! Yay! Walker to the rescue! Tell me what/who you would like to see in the future chapters! Review!
