Okay, the first thing I want to say here is:

THANK YOU ALL FOR THE LOVE AND SUPPORT YOU'VE GIVEN ME THROUGHOUT THIS PROJECT!

どもありがとございます！！

The next thing I'd like to say is that there are only three more chapters of this that will be from Kida's POV. At 'Day Twenty' the POV will switch to Izaya.

Aren't you excited!

When I woke up the next morning, I was staring at the rather annoyed face of Izaya Orihara. Wait, I said annoyed, didn't I? What I really meant there was 'the angry face' of Izaya Orihara. He looked scary mad this time, not like the last time when he was being quietly angsty. "What the Hell did you do!" he asked. Or rather, he yelled. Mikado woke with a start and stared, a scared expression on his face.

"What... I think that's kind of obvious..." Only when I spoke did I realize that my head hurt. BAD. I put a hand to my head and was rather surprised to find that it wasn't split open like it felt. Then the memory of the night before came rushing back to me and I frowned.

I have a hangover. Lovely.

Izaya, meanwhile, shook his head. "Not this," he gestured to Mikado, who's scared look switched to a confused look. "What did you do to the rest of my house!"

"What? Me!" I stared up at the information broker, a look of absolute horror on my face.

"Yes, you."

"I didn't do anything!"

"Then why's the place trashed?"

"Delic threw a party."

"You let him throw a party!" The look on Izaya's face right then was downright scary, and I couldn't help but flinch away from his obvious anger.

"He was the one in charge! How was I supposed to tell him no!" I launched into a defensive argument, amazed that he was angry at me for the party I couldn't have possibly thrown.

"What? No! I told him to tell you that you were in charge..." Izaya sighed and backed off finally. "He didn't tell you that, did he." It was more of a statement than a question, so I didn't answer. After that, Izaya left the room rather quickly. I assume he went to yell at delic for ruining his home, but I wouldn't know since I certainly wasn't going to follow him.

Mikado got out of bed almost immediately once Izaya had gone. I didn't blame him and so I let him go ahead and get dressed. Izaya hadn't said anything about the brunette being in bed with me, which naturally meant I was in trouble for that.

Ugh. Why me?

"You're leaving then?" I asked, not even needing to hear the answer to hear that he was, indeed, leaving.

"Yeah... Sorry."

"It's fine." Mikado finished dressing and left quietly, a slightly worried expression on his face the whole time.

It was only a few minutes after that when Izaya came back in. "He's gone then?"

"Yeah."

"That's too bad... I actually only came back to let you know that I'll be away for a couple more days."

"Oh." I looked up at him curiously. "You aren't mad about Mikado being here?"

"Nah. I don't see a reason to keep you from him just because you're paying your debt with me." Izaya smiled and started back toward the door. "Speaking of debts... For part of yours, you're going to clean up my home. Delic skipped out earlier I guess, so it's all yours."

"Oh... Alright then." I sighed and waved goodbye as he left the room.

Slowly, I got out of bed, not really all that eager to see the devastation of the house. As I expected, when I emerged into the living room, which had ben the epicenter of the party, it was a disaster come true.

I went into the kitchen and, ignoring the devastation there, grabbed a trash bag to get started. Heading back into the living room, I sighed again.

This is going to take all day!

I got to work immediately, pausing for lunch a little while later, but working on it right up until Psyche knocked on the door. Putting the trash bag down, I went to answer the door. "Yeah?"

"Hey Kida-kun." The young Orihara smiled at me, Tsugaru waiting behind him. "I figured you'd be stuck with clean-up duty, so I brought Tsu-chan. Can we help?" he asked brightly, looking at the mess through the doorway.

I smiled back at them both. "Sure. I guess you guys can help." I stood aside then to let them in and heard a small gasp from Tsugaru.

"You've gotten a lot of it done just by yourself..." he said quietly, smiling at me.

"Yeah... I've been working since I got up though, so it's not really all that surprising."

"Oh! There's my CD!" Psyche ran right over to the CD in question and picked it up before skipping back to Tsugaru.

Only, half-way there he fell over. Almost as fast as it happened, tsugaru was there helping him up. "Are you alright?" he asked the brunette. Psyche nodded and smiled, though there was a little scratch on his cheek from the carpet.

"I'm okay... Thank you Tsu-chan." he said, an adorable look of "I love you!' on his face.

Tsugaru kissed him lightly and wiped the dirt off of his face before they turned to me again.

The rest of the time I was cleaning, I kept glancing over at them thinking how cute they were.

Why can't I have something like that?
