Celty turned, contemplating her options. 'Come over to the hospital. Izaya's over here and I don't know what he'll do,' she texted Shinra.
The reply was immediate. 'Celty! Ah, so sorry but can't. I'm in the middle of an operation right now. AH! I got blood on the phone cover that you got me. I'll be over as soon as I can. Love, Shinra.'
Celty frowned. Really, if he was operating, he shouldn't even text. Just a 'busy' would've suffice. And the man has to get his priorities straight. Worrying about blood on a cover is the least important thing seeing as he was stitching some guy up.
Celty sighed and thought. Maybe some other friend or acquaintance of Shizuo? Hopefully, they'll be able to stop Izaya from committing murder… if he hadn't already. She quickly texted Kadota before leaving. She was sure Shizuo would survive for an hour or two. Even if it was Izaya. Or not. There was really no telling with the two of them.
When Celty came back to the hospital after the deliveries, she found not Kadota but Shinra sitting in front, fiddling with his lab coat.
'Where's Kadota?'
"Ah, Celty, my love! I'm so glad you're here! It was dreadfully boring being on Shizuo guard duty!" Shinra cried in delight, attempting to hug Celty. He was quickly pushed back.
'Shinra…"
"Oh, Kadota left with the otakus after the girl made too much noise. The hospital threatened to kick them out. Luckily, I was here!" Shinra grinned and spread his arms to emphasize it.
'Where's Izaya?'
"Still in the room."
'WHAT? Why haven't you gone in then?' Celty was furious. Really, Shinra was useless in situations like this.
Shinra pouted. "It was locked." He brightened up. "Besides, I thought we shouldn't disturb them. Privacy and all, you know."
Celty sighed. Shinra was the last one who knew anything about privacy.
"It's really interesting, you know. The dynamics between those two…" The underground doctor rambled on.
Celty decided she had enough. Curling her shadows, she got down to pick the lock… Just as Izaya turned the knob and opened.
The informant's expression was of mild surprise, changing quickly to a smirk. "Picking locks isn't something a fairy should be doing, Celty."
"Izaya!" Shinra cried somewhere behind them.
'What did you do?' Celty demanded.
Izaya smirked even more. "Nothing. It's been a delightful hospital visit but I should get going before Namie tries to put poison in my tea."
Celty tried to protest but her typing wasn't quick enough.
The informant left quickly, ignoring Shinra's shouts of … whatever he was saying and Celty's obvious confusion and doubt.
When Celty stepped inside, she was surprised to see a used chair and an almost empty box of sushi in the bin, containing of a few of the sweet egg roll sushi. The orange lily was placed in a glass of water. There was nothing of evidence that shows that Izaya harmed Shizuo. Not even a nick from the switchblade.
Okay, so maybe this should've gone with chapter 2, but then I had this as chapter 3 so yeah. Again, short, I know. The next chapter will be longer (hopefully).
I like writing Shinra the best, though I'm not sure if he's i character. I think so but maybe he's too... cheerful or something.
And last of all, I forgot to mention in last chapter. I mean that I watched/read the first arc, the Dollars one. I haven't really gotten further than that. I just wanted to clear it since I said it was first season but then someone told me that there was only one season (and I didn't want to look like I was trying to excuse myself from the OOC -ness (or is it OCC? 'Cause I've always read it in my mind as OCC... but the acronym doesn't really match up...)).
I hope you enjoy this one!
Please tell me what you think. Always appreciate feedback.
