„What in the name of hell!"

He felt strong arm grab his and pull him back to the ground. His surprised eyes met Shizuo's angry ones. Why was Shizuo here? To watch him die maybe. If that was so then why did he stop him, why didn't he just let Izaya fall to his death? He won after all. Shizuo won it all. Izaya's soul and heart, his life too. What was going on now?

"What are you doing you sneaky flea, huh? What are you doing jumping from my roof? Trying to get me accused for murdering you or something?"

Shizuo was shaking him so much it hurt, his strong arms crushing Izaya's thin shoulders under them. It hurt. It hurt so much. But the pain from within hurt more. It hurt so much more. The pain wanted to claim him now; it wanted him to die now. He couldn't fight it no longer; there was no point in doing so anywise. Nobody loved him; he had nobody to stay alive for. Shizuo hated him. He hated him so much that he wished Izaya dead. Now he'll get his wish come true. He forced out a smile to Shizuo. That was the first time it hurt so much just to smile. That was probably his fakest smile ever. And Shizuo saw right through it. He stopped shaking the raven head, watching that weird smile that appeared on his face. Izaya was a strange and creepy person, but this was something else even for him.

"I'm just fulfilling your wish, Shizu-chan. You should be happy now; you won't have to deal with me any more."

"My…my wish…what are you blabbing about flea? Is this one more of your tricks?!"

"Quite the contrary Shizu-chan. I'm doing exactly what you wanted me to do. I'm going to die."

"You…what?"

"Aww come on Shizu-chan. I do love you, but why do you have to be so slow, can't you just see how much it hurts. Can't you just let me die?"

Wait what! Did that flea just said he loves him. That he is going to die because Shizuo told him too. Shizuo blinked confused a few times. He hated the flea and that same flea hated him, right? That's how it has always been, right? So why the sad look on Izaya's face now. Idiot probably didn't know what he was saying anywise, he looked pretty out of it. Izaya probably didn't even notice that he told Shizuo that he loved him.

"Please Shizuo, it hurts. It really does. Why won't you believe me? If you want you can kill me yourself too. Doesn't matter to me. Just please make it quick, it hurts so much."

Shizuo flinched when Izaya dropt that stupid nickname he has been called with all these years. What was wrong with him? He didn't like Izaya in the first place, but something here was wrong. This wasn't Izaya, not the one he knew. Not the all-knowing, annoying, bloodsucking little bastard that followed him around, attracting trouble like light attracted moths. This Izaya was broken. There was no that mischief's glimmer in the crimson eyes. There was just pain. Pain so deeply rooted in those eyes that Shizuo couldn't help but not feel sorry for the younger one.

"What are you waiting for, Shizu-chan? Do you really like to see me suffer that much? That's not you, Shizu-chan, I think that would be me. I assure you that I had suffered enough for all these years, so please just let me die now."

Just let me die. Izaya was practically begging him to kill him. He was almost asking his permission. Can I die now, Shizu-chan, can I please, it hurts so much.

"Idiot."

"Hmm?" Izaya's eyes looked at him in confusion.

"You are an idiot, flea. Thinking I'll just let you die, or even kill you for that matter. I would be accused for murder, or help in suicide, or whatever. You are really stupid. And I'm really stupid too. Now I'm stuck here with you, I can't leave, because I know you would just jump of the building then, and I don't feel like having your dirty blood on my hands. I'm really stuck with you now, am I not?"

He laughed into the night, sitting himself down on the roof, one hand holding Izaya down and in place and the other on his head. Of all the people in this world, whose lives could depend on his decision, he ends up stuck with the flea. It was so funny. Izaya sat in his place, looking rather confused, and that made Shizuo laugh even more. The confused face of usually all-knowing Izaya Orihara was really priceless. It was so funny, this whole situation was absurd. He half expected for Izaya to bounce up and out of his reach, laughing at him, telling him how stupid he was to fall for his tricks yet again. But that didn't happen. And Shizuo knew it won't. He knew that because of that immensely confused look in Izaya's eyes. He knew that because when he stood up and threw Izaya over his shoulder, there were no complaints coming from the smaller one. No that annoying whining or never-ending line of witty words that would make him feel embarrassed or angry. There was just a small wince of surprise and that was all. The flea stayed silent. The damn flea stayed silent! He won. He won their stupid game of cat and mouse and got what seemed like a very depressed Izaya as his reward. Oh, the irony.

He laughed all the way to his apartment, nobody came out to complain, they knew better than to complain to Shizuo. He laughed when he opened doors of his apartment, when he threw the confused flea on the floor and when he lit up a cigarette to calm himself down. Once when he was calm enough, he looked down at that annoying little bastard that he now had at his mercy.

"So flea, what shall I do with you, now?"

Note: Dun dun dun duuuuuuun! What shall Shizuo do? Post up your suggestions and if I like them I'll do them. I'm a little short on inspiration, so throw me a bone here.
