Izaya woke early in the morning, stretching just his legs and lower back. Then he blinked his eyes open. It was still dark but he could see surprisingly well and he looked around in curiosity. Ahh... yes, he was in Shizuo's apartment... because he was drowned and turned into a cat on the same day...

And now it was the next day. Shizuo was still asleep, though he was next to Izaya, sharing a bed with him.

This same blond had saved Izaya's life. And then bothered to bring him home so that he wouldn't freeze and spend time and money on him.

Shizuo was also the reason Izaya had needed saving though... perhaps Izaya could use that to his advantage... his tail swished under the blanket as he thought, a soft purr rumbling in his throat... not as impressive a purr as when he was being petted or drinking milk or eating fish but a purr all the same...

Shizuo smiled lightly at it, before moving a bit closer to where Izaya was. It was early, so Shizuo wasn't up yet. He usually didn't get up until it was just about time for work.

Izaya blinked and then focused on Shizuo now. He could kill him right now... if he wanted. But the sight of his hands, his face... wow... Shizuo was really handsome. Izaya had never noticed before.

Shizuo was sleeping peacefully. His body was all about the bed, yet there was still room for Izaya in it. The blond, he was peaceful. There was no irritation or anger in his face. In fact, he looked completely human and vulnerable.

It was unsettling... Izaya didn't like finding himself attracted to someone who was supposed to be a monster... damn it. He buried his face in a pillow for a moment before peeking out again. Damn it... he slipped away from the blonde to move his laundry over... maybe more milk. He had quite a taste for it now.

It was then that Shizuo stirred a bit. "Mmm... Izaya?" He blinked a few times before sitting up and rubbing his eyes.

"Just... Moving my laundry over..." He said. If he stayed in bed any longer he might think too much about Shizuo being attractive.

"Oh." He yawned then before getting up. "I'm going to take a shower."

"Okay," Izaya let him go though he needed one too... he was all dirty from the river.

Shizuo showered quickly before drying and dressing.

"Alright. Shower is yours."

Izaya nodded and slipped into the bathroom with a borrowed towel. He hissed though when the water touched his skin and the shower lasted exactly long enough to get the mud out of his hair and... fur and not a second longer.

When Izaya got out of the shower, Shizuo glanced up. "That was quick." Quicker than he had taken his own shower. "Anyway, I made breakfast. Eggs. Eat up and then you gotta go because I have work."

"I'll leave when my clothing is done." He grumbled. He didn't like Shizuo's clothing it was comfortable and smelled like him.

The blond rolled his eyes before sitting down at the table to eat. "Well, go ahead and eat the eggs."

Izaya ate, curling slightly on the chair. His tail curled up and the very tip flicked back and forth.

When Shizuo finished eating, he stretched and put his dishes in the sink, not bothering to wash them yet. "Okay. I'm going to work. You better be gone when I get back." He didn't say anything else as he headed towards the door.

Izaya nodded but the minute Shizuo was out the door he was exploring. Every shelf, every cupboard... Izaya would never have this opportunity again after all... he eventually changed into his own clothing, though he also washed the dishes and took out the garbage before he left figuring it was the least he could do.


A few days passed after that with no sign of Izaya. It was boring though. And with Izaya being a cat... Well, it could be fun.

That's why Shizuo was currently on the way to the raven's with a bag of catnip with him.

Izaya was in hiding, waiting for when Shinra could fix this. He had not been out; he even gave Namie a paid vacation to keep her away. Told his clients he was quite ill.

Of course, Shizuo didn't care about that. He just broke the handle of Izaya's door before walking in. "Oi. Flea."

Izaya started from the nap he was taking on his couch when he heard someone walk in.

"What? Shizuo what the... what are you doing here? Get out this is breaking and entering you know!"

"No. I got this." He waved the bag of catnip. "Want it?"

Izaya frowned, "What the hell is that?" He asked. Locked up he couldn't smell it...

"It's catnip." The blond grinned before opening the bag.

"Cat... get it out." He frowned, afraid of how he would react but already he could smell it...no, resist...

"Don't want to. I bought this just for you." He shook the bag a little bit. "Come on kitty. Want the catnip?"

Izaya's tail swished out now, his pupils were already dilating and his eyes were on the damn little bag that his worst enemy was torturing him with.

"No... I don't want the catnip..." He said but oh GOD did he want the catnip...

"I think you do want the catnip." He shook the bag a little more. "Your eyes are following it." He grinned at that. Oh. This was fun.

He could smell it... nothing had ever smelled this good before, so intoxicating... and he was crouching lower, his eyes on the bag in Shizuo's hand. He was going to spring soon enough.

But, he wouldn't have to. Shizuo dumped a bit of it into his hand before sprinkling it onto Izaya's head.

Izaya's ears flicked suddenly and he blinked rapidly a couple of times before flopping right on his side, a deep, rumbling purr in his throat as he rolled around in it happily.

Shizuo grinned. "Ah. Look at that. You can't resist it." He grinned before sealing the bag and placing in his pocket. "Cute..."

Izaya purred loud too, the sound echoing around the room as he rubbed his head in the catnip on the floor, pawing at Shizuo's legs.

The blond sighed a bit before petting Izaya. "Ah, you're like a cat right now. You can't even reply to me."

Izaya was completely lost with the catnip, high as a kite now.

Shizuo chuckled lightly as he pet the other's ears. "Adorable. Really." Now, he actually sat down next to the other. "Hm. Maybe Shinra should keep you this way."

Izaya rolled right into Shizuo's lap as he struggled for more of his high too, stretching out though his legs were curled and his tail swished back and forth happily.

"Ah, you're a happy kitty, aren't you? A happy happy kitty." Shizuo grinned as he kept petting the other. "Yeah... Shinra needs to keep you this way."

Shizuo petting him wasn't helping him come down from this high though... and he smelled the bag in Shizuo's pocket too. His ears perked forward and he pawed at the pocket before trying to chew the catnip out through Shizuo's pocket.

"Hey hey hey. No. Don't do that." He pushed the other away a bit. "I'll give you more if you want it."

"Nya~!" He whined, his tail thumping against the floor as he tried to get at that good stuff.

Shizuo grinned a bit as he pulled out his phone now. He had to get the 'cute little kitty' on video. "Say that again? I'll give you some more if you do."

Izaya was still purring, "Nyaaaa~!" He whined, trying to bite the pocket again though Shizuo was keeping him from it now.

Shizuo chuckled before grabbing the catnip and sprinkling more onto the raven. "Here you go. You like the catnip, don't you?"

"Prrrow~!" He agreed, sneezing cutely and then rolling in it more. Oooh... this was amazing...

Shizuo grinned as he watched, and taped, Izaya. "Ah..." Yes. Cute. But now, he stood and put the catnip up high. "Now no more."

Izaya hardly noticed, rolling around and purring... oooh, this was good, sososo good~

Again, Shizuo chuckled before petting the raven, and still taping it as well. "Ah, just wait till you see this video, Izaya."

Izaya's eyes were closed in bliss, a lax smile on his lips and his tail moving happily. He rolled every so often but now he was mostly still. He would kill Shizuo when he came back to his senses...

Or he'd at least try to.

Finally, SHizuo stopped recording and stood before making his way over to the couch, waiting now. Ah... The raven would be mad.

Izaya eventually returned to his senses. "Shizuo..." He mumbled when he managed to meander over.

The blond was grinning. "Yes, little kitty?" It was obvious that he was amused.

Izaya glared at him. "If you ever show that to anyone you will sorely regret it." he threatened.

"Who says I was going to show anyone? It's for me. And for you sometimes."

"Why would I want to watch myself making a fool of myself over a damn plant?" He grumbled, his ears flattening slightly. He couldn't wait until he turned back.

"Because it's funny." Shizuo grinned as he slipped his phone back into his pocket.

Izaya made a strange growling sound like cats did when they were irritated. He wasn't sure what to do now.

Shizuo just smiled lightly before going to rub at Izaya's ears. "Good kitty."

Izaya purred automatically but he still glared. "I really do hate you..."

"Yeah? And I hate you. But oh well." He pet the other a bit more, smiling lightly as he did. AH... he did have a soft spot for cats, and didn't really know what to think of a cat flea.

"If you hate me why did you save me?" He grumbled, pouting almost childishly at Shizuo.

Good question. Why did he save Izaya? He could have let the other die and been done with it. But he didn't. "..."

He didn't answer and instead, he kept petting the other.

"S-stop petting me... nyaaaa~" He hated being a cat lately.

"Why? It makes you less annoying and cute."

"B-because it feels good~!" He whined softly, still purring.

"I can tell. You're purring. But it isn't stopping me. Like I said. It makes you less annoying."

Izaya grumbled something but closed his eyes.

The blond grinned a little as he moved his hand to pet Izaya's tail. It was soft like his ears.

Izaya started when Shizuo's hand brushed low, near where his tail emerged from his spine. His spine arched though and he pressed into the touch with a soft gasp.

Shizuo didn't really notice. Instead, he just kept petting the other's tail.

Hm. Strange. Wouldn't think there'd be a real neko. But Shinra made one out of Izaya.

Izaya pressed more into the touch, his hands balling up like paws as he began reflexively kneading Shizuo's thigh... he didn't know why this felt so good though but oh damn did he like it... his purr was different too.

"Hm..." Izaya was acting strange now. But, he wasn't being annoying. And he was acting like a cat again. So he really didn't care and kept petting.

"Sh-Shizuo... s-stop it..." He managed to gasp out... he realized what was happening... Shizuo was turning him on.

"Why?" He didn't know what he was doing. But if he did, he would stop.

Izaya's cheeks went red but before he could say anything he moaned. It was sweet and long and filled with lust and desire too.

Now, Shizuo stopped. Izaya just... moaned. He moaned because he had been petting him. That would be why...

"I'll go now." That was best.

Izaya flushed, hiding his face. "Y-yeah..." He mumbled meekly.

On his way out, SHizuo grabbed the catnip. It was probably better if he took it as well.

...Damn this was awkward. Oh well. He'd just ignore Izaya until he was normal. And then maybe even more after that.
