Okay so once again this is not edited because I've been sick the past few days so if you see any spelling errors / grammar mistakes just let me know and I'll fix them!(:

They were fifteen now, Shizuo's had grown stronger over the past few years. He was able to pick up vending machines, rip stop-signs out of the asphalt, and even pick up cars and Izaya loved watching the brute at work with his strength, it was one of the reasons why he doesn't leave him alone because their chases grew more and more fun the stronger Shizuo got.

"Shizu-Chan can't catch me!" Izaya called out as he jumped onto the nearest building, he stuck his tongue out at the brute before grabbing his blade and throwing it at the other. Shizuo dodged it only to swing the stop-sign at Izaya but of course missed because of how fast the brunette was.

"Dammit flea, stop running and take the beating I have in store for you!"

"And why would I do that Shizu-Chan?" Izaya hummed taking out yet another blade. "I'm having fun, aren't you? Ikebukuro's monster can't catch me, how interesting!" He laughed as he stabbed at Shizuo's chest.

"Fuck you!" He yelled and hissed as the knife slashed his chest a bit. "You're going to pay for that!" He added as he took off to catch up to the flea who began running again.

"Gotta catch me to make me pay!" Yelled Izaya already several feet ahead of the boy. He had been so caught up in the moment that he wasn't watching where he was going and suddenly he had slipped and lost his balance, only making him slip off the wall he was trying to parkour on only to go crashing down.

"I finally got you now stupid flea!" Shizuo said as he watched Izaya struggle to get up, only to hiss in pain and fall right back down.

"Ah…" Izaya hissed, pain shooting through this entire body but the worst of it was coming from his ankle. Izaya could only see Shizuo began to hover over him — probably to kill him — and Izaya knew he was defenseless at the moment because he couldn't barely move, he wouldn't be surprised if he had broken a few ribs as well with how hard that fall was.

"Shizu-Chan… s-stop… ah fuck… my ankle… I think it's broken…" He groaned as he saw the brute ready to swing the stop-sign he was holding in his hands, at him.

"Yeah right… you think I'm stupid… I'm not falling for your stupid tricks anymore…"

"This isn't a trick, I promise…. Ughh it hurts!" He cried out when he stood because the pain was excruciating. "I need to go to the hospital… you need to take me to the hospital…"

"Me? Why should I take you? If you haven't noticed I hate your fucking guts…"

"Because I can't walk…. Please Shizuo."

Shizuo stood there for a second contemplating on whether he should or not, but finally decided he'd kill the flea later and not when he was so defenseless. "Fine… but only because I don't want to kill you when you can't fight back, I want a fair fight…" he huffed as he bent down to pick Izaya up, being careful not to hurt the other even more. "But I swear if I find out that this is one of your sick jokes, then I'll really kill you…"

"Yeah yeah…." Izaya said as he was carried to the nearest hospital.

Izaya had been given a cast, crutches, and pain killers because of his broken ankle, Shizuo feeling bad for not believing the other at first but he brushed off the feeling of guilt because at least the flea was getting the medical treatment he needed.

Shizuo had taken Izaya home that night, with Izaya's father at work and Izaya's mother taking care of the twins, Shizuo had decided to help Izaya up the stairs and to his room because the boy was still a bit out of it from the pain medication.

Once there Izaya sat on the bed and gave Shizuo a teasing smirk, "you know you didn't have to help me up the stairs Shizu-Chan…. But I'm very grateful…" he giggled.

"Whatever just get some rest…." Shizuo demanded as he pushed Izaya to lay down and covered him up.

"But I need give my hero something in return…." Whined Izaya as he motioned Shizuo to come closer.

"I don't want anything of yours flea…"

"C'mere…" He motioned once more, sighing in defeat Shizuo leaned in closer only to be met with complete surprise as Izaya's lips connected to his. Shizuo didn't know whether to break it or kiss back but he didn't get time to decided because Izaya had pulled back before he could, so the kiss only lasted a few seconds.

"What'd you do that for flea?" Shizuo finally said after the shock subsided.

"Cause you're pretty… preetttty… my pretty hero…" He giggled poking Shizuo's nose. "Shizu-Chan pretty…" He added in his fits of giggles.

Shizuo just blushed, his whole face was red because he was so fluttered. Not knowing what to do, say or even feel at the moment, so he just pushed Izaya down against his pillow "Go to sleep you damned flea." He said as he walked out of the room completely flabbergasted and he tried to write it off as Izaya only kissed him and saying those things was because he was out of it with the medicine.

The next day Izaya wasn't at school because of his mother's wishes, she didn't want Izaya forcing himself to soon so instead of arguing he complied and stayed home to rest, after school Shinra and Kadota visited the boy at his home.

"I knew you were going to get hurt one of these days, you can't pick a fight with Shizuo and expect to come out unscathed…" Shinra scolded. "I hope you have learned you lesson and you two won't be fight anymore…"

"Shinra don't be such a buzz kill, of course me and Shizu-Chan will still be fighting… It's so much fun! But this wasn't his fault, it was being I wasn't watching were I was going." He laughed. "Speaking of the brute, where is he?" Izaya inquired kind of disappointed that he wasn't here to visit him as well.

"Said he had some stuff to do, probably heading home to get caught up some of the school work he's missed while you guys are fighting." Shinra said still in scolding manner because he just wanted his two best friends to get along.

"Lay off Shinra… I know you're just worried but lecturing him right now won't do any good." Kadota said as he placed a hand on Shinra's shoulder.

"I know…" he said before reaching into his bag and pulling out their assignments. "I brought you our work from today, so you don't have to be behind when you get back to class." He said and Izaya just nodded and took it.

"I promise I'll be more careful next time Shinra." He said trying to calm his friends worries, with that Shinra hugged Izaya bye and left with Kadota following behind.

Izaya glanced out the window and sighed, "stupid protozoan…" he mumbled as he laid back against his pillow deciding to get some sleep.

Meanwhile Shizuo stood about a block away from Izaya's house pacing back and forth, not knowing if he should even go visit him today because he didn't want things to be awkward, he didn't even know if the kiss meant anything because Izaya had been pretty out of it with the pain medication.

Part of Shizuo wanted that kiss to mean nothing because it was the stupid flea and then another part of him wanted it to mean something because well, it was the stupid flea! The same guy he's had mixed emotions for since they were kids.

"Dammit…" Shizuo mumbled as he looked down at the 'Get Well Soon' card in his hand that his brother had forced him to buy for the flea. "This is stupid." He said to himself because he knew Izaya would just make fun of him for bringing him a stupid card. Izaya was a asshole but for some reason he couldn't get that asshole out of his head.

After about twenty minutes of pacing he was pissing himself off at the thought of Izaya laughing at him for the card he got, "That'd be just like him." He growled as he marched right up to the fleas house, knocking on the door a bit harshly but no one answered so he knocked again. Guessing no one was home to answer the door and the fact Izaya couldn't really walk made it worse, he jiggled the door handle but it was locked.

That just pissed him off even more to the point he actually went around the house and climbed up to where Izaya's bedroom window was and without a thought he punched it in.

"WHAT THE HELL!?" Izaya screamed as he watched the glass shatter to the floor and then Shizuo pop his head in. "ARE TOU CRAZY?" He added in the same tone because he couldn't believe Shizuo had just busted his window in.

"I wanted to give you this stupid card and this was the only way I could get in because the front door was locked." He said climbing through the window and shoving the card into Izaya's chest.

"You busted my window to give me a card…" Izaya said unamused. "The window was unlocked y'know?" He said with his brow raised.

"Yeah well you pissed me off… so you deserved the window broken."

"How exactly did I piss you off when I've been in bed all day?" He inquired.

"You piss me off even when you're not around dumb flea…"

"Yeah I'm dumb… you're the one who doesn't know how to check to see if somethings locked or not." Izaya rolled his eyes. "It's a good thing you showed up when you did… I've been lying here all day and I'm quite thirsty so be a dear and fetch me something to drink will ya?" He said only to watch the others face scrunch up in annoyance.

"What am I? Your maid?" Shizuo huffed refusing to budge from where he was standing.

"Come on Shizu-Chan…. You are partly responsible for this." He said motioning to his ankle. "The least you could do is get me something to drink!"

"Not until you ask nicely." Shizuo huffed.

"Ugh… fine pleaseeee Shizu-Chan! I'm dying here."

"In that case my work here is done, I should let you just suffer and die of dehydration."

"Wow Shizu-Chan's mean…" Izaya did a fake pout. "And to think I was gonna let you carry all my books during school Monday."

"Wow how nice of you…"

"It was nice of me… but I guess I'll have to find someone else." Izaya said only to have Shizuo roll his eyes.

"Whatever like I give a shit…" Shizuo sighed as he exited the room and all Izaya could hear was a loud rustling from downstairs before Shizuo came barging in with the whole fridge in his back. Quickly the fridge was sat right beside Izaya's bed and in all honest he was surprised the thing even fit in there.

"Just because I know Shinra will scold me if I didn't get you something to drink…" he said.

"WHAT THE HELL SHIZUO?!" Izaya exclaimed. "I said a drink, not the whole fridge!"

"Yeah well I won't be here later, so this way you don't have to get up. It's already right here for you. Plus if you get hungry, there's food in your reach as well."

"My mother is going to kill me!" He said looking up at the brute.

"Not my problem flea! See you at school on Monday! You know if you're not dead." Shizuo smirked before exiting out the same way he came through, leaving Izaya there not knowing what to do or say.

"Stupid protozoan…" He said as he looked down at the card Shizuo had gotten him and he opened it, it was nothing fantasy it was just a plain card you can get at the store. "What a stupid gift." He hummed but yet he couldn't bring himself to throw it away, instead he had laid it in the drawer next to him safely. Neither of them had spoken of the kiss the previous night to which both of them were thankful.

It was Monday morning when Shinra, Kadota, and even Shizuo had stopped by Izaya's house to help him to school. Izaya was on crutches, a backpack slung across his shoulder to help him carry all his books.

Kadota taking Izaya's bag for him to help him out, while they made their walk to school. But about halfway there Izaya whined, "Shizu-Chan I'm tired, carry me!"

"Carry your damn self flea." Huffed Shizuo only to be scolded by Shinra.

"It's the least you can do Shizuo-San."

"Dammit why do I have to be the one always stuck with him." Shizuo groaned but listened to his friend anyways. "Fine, but only to school and that's it. After that you'll be walking on your own for the rest of the day!" He added as he picked up Izaya Shinra grabbing the crutches as Shizuo put Izaya on his back.

But as Shizuo's luck went, all day he had carried Izaya from class to class and he had even carried the boy home.

"You know you got me in trouble." Izaya said when Shinra and Kadota left and it was just him and Shizuo as he was carried home. "You should have seen my moms face when she saw the fridge missing and to only find it in my room." Izaya giggled. "She even grounded me for a week!"

"Serves you right."

"Awe you don't mean that!" Izaya smiled as he poked at Shizuo's cheek only making the other growl in frustration. "You know my mom can't move the fridge because it's too heavy so she just comes to my room now to get what she need for food. My sisters too." Izaya had a hint of annoyance in his tone that Shizuo felt accomplished for.

They had arrived at Izaya's house and Shizuo had walked him inside, only to be met with Izaya's mother sitting on the couch knitting. "Hi sweetie, how was your day?" She asked only to look up and see someone carrying her son and she just knew this was the same boy who broke her window and moved her fridge.

"You Heiwajima Shizuo?" She inquired only to be met with a nod as Shizuo sat Izaya down on the couch. "Speak up boy." She scolded.

"Yes…" He quickly spoke up.

"So you're the one who decided to redecorate my house and break my window…" She said only to grab the boy by the ear and drag him upstairs. "You're going to move my fridge back downstairs and into my kitchen, then you're going to do some work around my house just to pay off that window you broke, ya hear me boy."

Shizuo nodded.

"I need you to speak up dear." She scolded once more.

"Yes ma'am." Shizuo said correcting himself, even though this women was tinier then he was. She still frightened him, she had that mothering look but also that daring look in her eyes that made him think twice before back-talking to her.

"Good, I'll leave you to it then. Once you get done with this come see me because I got more work that's need to be done." She said.

After Shizuo had moved the fridge back to it's rightful place, he had done exactly what Mrs. Orihara said and meet her for the rest of the work he was supposed to do to pay for the damaged window.

That night he had tended to her garden, washed dishes, swept the kitchen floor, vacuumed the living room and all the bedrooms, and even helped cook dinner and set the table but all that had come with the price of the damned flea making fun of him and even laughing at him every time he'd pass him who was still sitting on the couch with his sisters.

By the time dinner was ready, Mrs. Orihara had forced Shizuo to stay and have dinner because she wasn't going to have him working all day in her house and him not get a meal out of it.

So he had stayed, it had been a little awkward at first but that soon passed as soon as the twins began to talk about their day and Mrs. Orihara listening only to turn around to ask about Izaya and even Shizuo's day.

By the end of dinner they had been all laughing at each other's stories, once everyone was done Shizuo had helped clean off the table and wash dishes as his last thing to do.

After Shizuo had left Mrs. Orihara had gotten the twins ready for bed, before heading downstairs to sit next to her son who was doing school work. "Fine young man he is." She started getting out her knitting equipment. "We should have him around more often, especially with your father away on business trips and all, it'd really help me out considering how strong he is for such a young age." She said.

"He's a monster… that's all there is to it." Izaya started not looking up from his homework yet he wasn't even working on it, he was just staring at the book blankly in thought.

"What is it dear?" His mother asked as she could just sense Izaya's distress.

"Oh nothing… just trying to finish up my work before heading to bed." He said mustering up a smile before looking back down at the book in his hand.

"Izaya… don't give me that, I am your mother I know when something is bothering you and right now something is defiantly bothering you."

There was a long pause of silence, Izaya not looking at his mother and Mrs. Orihara waiting patiently for her son to speak.

After a while a sigh left the boy as he looked up at his mother, "I um…. I think I-I'm in love… with him…" Izaya stumbled to get the words out.

"Oh sweetie…" His mother gasped as she just stared at her son with so much love and compassion in her eyes because until this moment she was afraid her son wouldn't ever have feeling for anyone, Izaya always talked about people as "his humans" and as a mother who just wanted the best for her children she couldn't be happier for her son who had just opened up to actually liking someone.

"Well if I say so myself, you have picked a fine young man to love." She said only to make Izaya blush in embarrassment.
