ஜ Chapter 5: Trip ஜ
-Shizuo´s point of view-
... And now?
He had no clue.
He had just arrived at the infirmary again. The nurse was still gone, just like before.
"I even went through the trouble of carrying you down there, stupid flea," he mumbled, closing the door behind them with a swift movement.
He really had no clue at all what to do now, though.
He was supposed to bring the louse to his dad, and now he was still here with him. That flea had a fever- he couldn´t just leave him here.
...
Stupid flea...
What was that even about?
...
Fuck, he didn´t even know himself why he had done what he did. Nothing was wrong at all before. He was just bringing Izaya to his dad, so why... did he have such a bad gut feeling?
Fucking confusing.
He bet the flea did that on purpose.
He glanced towards his back, twisting his head just enough that he could look at Izaya.
Of course the idiot was still passed out.
A little annoyed, Shizuo turned around, intending to drop the flea on the bed in the infirmary, when a soft ringing tone made him pause.
It was the school bell-
Quickly, he looked at the clock hanging in the infirmary-
It was 10am.
Ahhhhhh, they were leaving at 11, weren´t they?
A groan caught his attention, and he twisted his head once more, a slight frown appearing on his forehead. The flea had woken up.
Groggily, he lifted his head, glancing at the blond.
"So, you are finally awake," Shizuo mumbled, half annoyed, half glad that he didn´t have to decide what to do now all on his own. If the flea had woken up, there was no problem in just dropping him here, right?
The flea didn´t really seem to be quite awake yet as he looked around until his eyes stopped at the clock in the office.
"The bus?" he inquired, suddenly shifting on the blond´s back, indicating that he wanted to be let down. The blond frowned a bit, wondering if he should just drop him or not- but then again the flea was sick or something. He couldn´t exactly just drop a sick person.
"Still an hour until it leaves," he answered, letting the shorter male down. A simple nod was all he got as the flea wobbled on his feet. He didn´t exactly look steady. Shizuo moved aside so Izaya would be able to get to the bed without having to move around him first.
"Good thing you woke up. I was planning on throwing you on the infirmary bed," he declared, crossing his arms, but the raven still didn´t move.
He wasn´t about to tip over, was he?
"No, not the infirmary bed." The blond blinked.
"What?" A frown carved itself on the raven´s forehead- but not the kind that was annoyed; it looked more like he was in distress.
"I'll go on the trip. I´m already fine again."
Okay- that was the most obvious lie he had ever heard. From the flea, nonetheless.
"You're sick. The nurse told me to bring you home," the blond simply stated what the doctor had told him. He wasn´t exactly going to try and defend her request when she had asked him... like that.
"No, I´m not going home. I´m fine." That stubborn fucking flea-
"You can´t even stand up straight properly. If anyone notices that I didn´t take you home, I will get in trouble, too, you know." This was ridiculous. But the raven didn´t seem to think so at all, it seemed.
"So? Wouldn´t be the first time." That fucking-!
Yeah, and whose fault were all the other times he got into trouble?!
Fucking louse.
He was about to say something in reply when the flea started to walk. Well, or rather... wobble his way forward.
It was obvious he was having a hard time keeping his balance. Izaya wasn´t feeling as well as he wanted to pretend.
Shizuo frowned. Why was he even that keen on attending that stupid trip? It wasn´t like he attended school that regularly anyway- so why this?
If Izaya was forcing himself to go there like this, it must be for a damn good reason.
...
Please.
...
That bastard had even said "please" before.
Yeah, there was definitely something off.
"You want to go on the trip that bad?" he found himself asking, despite already knowing the answer. Izaya turned around, with his usual cocky smirk on his lips.
"Correct."
As if.
If this was about anything- it definitely wasn´t the trip. And yet, the same strange feeling from before came back to haunt him.
If Izaya didn´t go with them on the trip, he would have to get the flea home.
...
Please.
...
Ah fuck that shit-
Something was just off.
Izaya wouldn´t say please like that for no reason, and as long as Shizuo didn´t know the reason why he had said that, he wasn´t going to do this.
"Hurry up already flea, if I am late because of you, I will kill you." The raven blinked, a tad surprised, and twisted his head to look at the brute.
Was he actually saying what he thought he was saying?
"You won´t tell anyone?" Izaya asked, an eyebrow raised as he made his way over to the door- only slowly. He was feeling way too dizzy for his own liking.
"As long as no one notices you're sick," the blond said with a shrug, causing Izaya to nearly smile- Shizuo wouldn´t know it was because of relief.
"I´m not sick," Izaya commented, playfully. He knew already that the brute knew- he may be a stupid protozoan, but he wasn´t that stupid.
"Whatever you say. What about your fever?" He was really going to play his part wasn´t he? And that even though Izaya thought he was pretty much done for after yesterday.
Really now, he should have known Shizu-chan was a protozoan and would forget about whatever he saw until the next day.
Izaya touched his own forehead-
... Fever.
Most definitely, even he could feel that. But he wasn´t sick, ne?
"It´s gone," he chirped, stepping out onto the hall.
"Yeah right," the blond snorted, closing the infirmary door behind him. He didn´t like this pretend game, but it was better that way wasn´t it.
"Probably was just cuz of the weather or something," the raven lied quickly.
He knew he wasn´t really sick. Not in terms of catching some kind of virus or anything. He knew pretty well why he had a fever- wasn´t the first time, after all.
He couldn´t exactly tell the brute that it was from the blows to his head he had received earlier that morning after his siblings went to school, though. After all, he was going to be gone for a full week, wasn´t like his dad would let him leave just like that.
"We should hurry up by the way. The teacher said something about leaving at eleven," the blond suddenly announced, making Izaya look at the big clock at the end of the hall.
It was only 10:13. But if the brute wanted to hurry, then he wouldn´t complain. Right now he was kind of dependent on the monster. It irked him a lot more than he liked it to, but for the sake of staying away from home for a whole week, he could even endure this for a while.
"Whatever you say," he crooned, walking down the corridor. As long as he kept his eyes focused on the end of it and kept walking at a steady pace, he should be able to make it to the bus without catching any attention.
...
Speaking of the bus…. A little confused, Izaya let his eyes trail over the window next to the corridor.
He could see the bus from here- and it looked like the students were already storing the suitcases in it-
"Uhm, Shizu-chan, by any chance, could it be that they are leaving earlier?" The blond frowned, looking out the window, as well.
"Hah, what are you talking about?"
But then he saw what Izaya had already noticed. The students were even getting on the bus-
"Oh shit-!" The raven frowned, he really felt like hitting that brute!
"You really are a goddamn protozoan!" he complained as the blond started running towards the room they stored the suitcases in while yelling.
"It´s not my fault!"
And Izaya? He was walking watching the brute get farther and farther away.
Ah, there was no way he could run. Walk, alright, but run?
If he had to get the suitcase from the art room and then go to the bus, he would be late.
He already knew it.
"You go straight to the bus!" The raven blinked upon hearing those words and looked ahead, only to see the blond just before he turned around the corner. "I will get your stupid suitcase, too!"
...
Really.
Shizu-chan was and always would be unpredictable.
Why was he helping him this much? Frowning, he walked on. It really made no sense. He passed out in the first lesson after dropping the suitcases in the art room. And then he woke up upon Shizuo carrying him-... Back to the infirmary?
No wait, something was off there.
Shizuo said he was supposed to bring him home. Why was he bringing him back to the infirmary?
Only now he realized that there was something off. Freaking fever.
By now he made it to the end of the hall. Walking through the entrance of the school, Izaya stepped out, finally seeing the bus in front of him. The driver had already taken his seat and was about to drive off-
As quickly as he could he walked towards the door- quickly getting into the vehicle.
"Ah. Izaya-"
"Shinra, you idiot! You didn´t tell me we were leaving earlier!" The raven turned his head around quickly, not expecting the blond to be standing behind him all of a sudden, but really, he was- Two suitcases in his hands and panting from the short sprint.
"Ah, Shizuo, I didn't think you'd make it in time." The future doctor laughed shamelessly.
"Yeah, I almost didn't. Why didn´t you tell me?" the blond asked, annoyed, while the bus driver took his luggage.
"I only realized a minute ago!" Shinra exclaimed, raising his hands in defense. "I think the teacher was trying to 'accidentally' leave you behind, to be honest," the bespectacled boy added, making Shizuo frown even deeper.
"Huh?" Izaya laughed.
"Aww, poor monster, even the teacher wants to leave you here." He earned a glare for that one.
"Shut up, Izaya." Oops- he should probably not tease Shizu-chan when he could still rat him out-
Keeping his mouth actually shut this time, he walked down the tiny aisle in the bus. All places were already taken- only two in the middle of the bus were still vacant.
Obviously, Shinra hadn´t kept a seat free for either of them. He was one of those students that liked to puke their guts out on a bus ride, so the teachers put him in the front row, along with some other kid that also did that kind of thing far too often.
"There are only two seats left." The raven snorted.
"You may not believe it Shizu-chan, but some people can actually count." Shizu-chan was stating the obvious on purpose, wasn´t he?
He didn´t fail to catch the nervous glances of the teachers in the first row to the right. They had heard that Shizu-chan knew about their attempt to leave him here, and they also knew very well that there were only two seats left, he suspected.
Oh well.
Stepping ahead he turned around to face the protozoan.
"After you." He grinned, offering him the window seat. He didn´t exactly like being trapped between Shizu-chan and a window for a good four hours.
After sending him an annoyed glance, Shizuo slipped into the seat, letting himself slump down.
"You look so pissed, something wrong?" The raven grinned, but only received a glare.
"Shut up already." He was tired of the flea always teasing him. There he was, doing him a fucking favour, and he was still being an asshole about it.
Grumpy, he stared out of the window. Where were they even going again? He didn´t even remember, something with sakura trees or shit. Well, he would see when he was there.
Or ask Shinra.
One of these options.
With some noise, the bus driver started the vehicle, finally driving towards their destination. Lazily, he let his eyes trail along the buildings they passed.
Four hours.
What a freaking long drive.
Should he try to sleep? Then again, those classmates of his were chatting in the bus, making it nearly impossible to sleep.
And talking, too? No way. The only seat neighbour he had was the flea, and he was so not going to strike a conversation with him.
So sleep it was.
He sighed as he leant back in his seat, his gaze still fixed on the window. Maybe if he stared out the window long enough, he would get sleepy.
Should be possible, no?
But he didn´t really get to try that theory, because suddenly he felt something brush his right shoulder.
Something that liked to annoy the shit out of him on a daily basis.
"Can you please stay in your seat, louse?" he growled, turning towards the flea and pushing him away again, only to make aforementioned flea glare at him.
"You must have moved over. I didn´t do anything." Yeah right, as if-
He was about to reply, but then he stopped himself from saying whatever it was that was on his tongue.
And why? Because it was getting obvious how sick the raven was. Despite the glare, it was pretty damn obvious how glassy his eyes were. He even seemed to be trembling in his seat- and Shizuo doubted the fever had gone down, so he couldn´t be actually cold.
Then again- he often felt cold himself when having a fever, didn´t he?
There even was a word for that, but he didn´t remember it.
The glare still in place, Shizuo just kept looking at the flea.
Izaya frowned. It really ticked him off how he was just staring.
"What?" he asked, hoping to get some kind of answer from the brute as to why he was looking at him like he was some sort of alien.
The frown only deepened on the brute´s face, and all of a sudden, he got up.
"Stand up." The raven blinked, slightly confused, still looking at the now standing Shizu-chan.
"Huh?" The blond rolled his eyes, obviously irritated.
"We're switching seats," he announced, pushing at the raven´s shoulder to get him to get up. The raven frowned and slapped his hand away.
"And why would we do that?" he asked, a little pissed. Though Shizuo didn´t seem to be in a better mood.
"Just shut up and do it." He growled.
Tch-
"I don´t like being trapped between the window and you, though. Escpecially you," Izaya declared.
He definitely didn´t want to get up right now. With the bus moving, the dizziness from before had only gotten worse, and he could really pass on having Shizuo watch him when he passed out.
"Do it or I´m gonna beat your ass."
Fucking asshole.
"So brutish." Slowly he stood up, all the while keeping his hands on the seat in front of them to keep his balance- in the most non-noticable way of course.
The blond´s frown ceased a little as he got out of the seat, letting Izaya slip into his own. He wasn´t stupid. He knew he wasn´t feeling too great. The way the flea´s knuckles turned white just from gripping the seat in front of them so hard told him already how bad he was having it right now.
Without another word, he pulled off the pullover he had been wearing that day and dropped it on the flea.
Infuriated, Izaya stared at him.
"What the-" But Shizuo wasn´t going to let him continue spouting annoying things.
"You can use that as a blanket. Now sleep," he declared simply. He wasn´t having any of his stupid excuses right now. But of course, the flea had to have the last word.
"Why would I?"
The blond sighed and with a quick glance he made sure no one was actually paying attention to them. But their classmates were busy joking and chatting around anyway.
And so he turned to Izaya- the flea blinked and before he knew it there was a hand on his forehead.
Another blink followed, and then a glance- one to their surroundings and if anyone was seeing what he was doing and then to Shizu-chan himself.
"That´s why," the blond declared, though more quiet than before.
Izaya was still hot as fuck. He had thought before that he was really feeling at least a bit better, but like this, it only seemed like it was getting worse.
"Now lean on the window and sleep already before I rat you out to the teacher. Annoying flea," he mumbled under his breath, knowing full well that Izaya would be able to catch the words.
And with that, he was quiet.
He didn´t complain, simply pulled the pullover up and turned towards the window, not facing him anymore.
A silent win.
The blond leaned back in his seat again, turning his head towards the window- and subsequently Izaya.
At least he had his eyes closed now. Maybe four hours of sleep would help that stupid louse.
...
That stupid flea.
If the teacher noticed that he didn´t actually get better, he would be responsible, too.
Really now.
What did he get himself into?
