Soo...

After that traumating end of Durarara!, I felt I had to give you all heartbroken royal subjects a gift. Yes, you are now promoted as my royal subjects, you are no longer peasants. I was shaken to understand there won't be anymore Durarara! on Saturdays, but I hope I will find some anime to catch my heart as much as this one did.

So, to cheer you all up today, I present the last chapter of Suit and Tie.


After picking himself up from the unsuccessful chase, he thought the only logical thing would be to contact his family and ask about his whereabouts. Shizuo made his way back to the chapel, where the whole wedding setup was being shut down, and he saw the twins still clinging to his younger brother, so he made his way over there.

He caught the attention of Kururi, since Mairu had her attention to Kasuka. The quieter girl saw him looking at her, so she went ahead to meet him.

''Do you know where I will be able to reach Izaya? I know he went to America, but do you know where he lives, or anything like that?''

''Ask...Mom.'' The girl whispered out, before pointing out at the back entrance of the building, where the blond assumed, the mentioned Mrs. Orihara was. So, Shizuo made his way over there, and as he opened the door, he saw the woman end a call on her phone, and she was putting it in her purse.

''Mrs. Orihara?''

''Oh, Shizuo-kun! I didn't expect you to here. I thought you went to the airport.''

''I didn't make it. You were talking on the phone just now. Was it him?'' The blond asked, his tone careful. The woman averted her eye's from his, looking at anything but him.

''W-wait. Was that even the right flight?''

Mrs. Orihara kept her mouth in a straight line, not wanting to tell the man the truth. But she knew, she would have to tell him eventually.

''It wasn't. We gave you the wrong flight, so you wouldn't be able to reach him. I suppose, when you returned here, he went aboard on his flight.''

Shizuo was shocked. Izaya's own family had lied to him about his lovers whereabouts, and made it so he wouldn't be able to reach him in time. He felt angry, but he didn't let his rage consume him. He just felt comfused this time.

''Why? You saw, I'm finally free, I have the permission to have him. I have the permission to marry him. Why did you lie?''

''I didn't want my baby boy to hurt anymore. He was unstable, even before he met you, after his last romance. I knew he wouldn't agree or believe you, so I didn't tell you the right flight. I want him to settle down his life, and finally become an artist. Until I get news of him being okay, I will not tell you his address. Please, I hope you can respect my wish, Heiwajima-kun.''

Feeling defeated, Shizuo hung his head, but payed his respects to her wish. He didn't want to intrude in Izaya's life, if he wasn't wanted. All he ever wanted, was the raven to be happy. Even, if that happiness wasn't by his side.

As he went back inside of the chapel, he felt somebody tug at his arm. He turned around, and found himself face to face with Vorona still in her wedding dress, standing together with Sloan, his hand around her waist.

''Shizuo-sama, I heard you didn't make it. I am very sorry.''

''Yeah, ah, it's okay. I'll get over it. And now, come to think of it, now I need to find a new assisstant.''

''Speaking of work, that is what we wanted to speak with you about.'' Sloan and Vorona were the ones to speak up.''I have talked to both of our fathers, and Heiwajima-sama said, that he no longer needs you to run his company.''

''The hell! Well, tell him he can show the company up his ass, if he wants to.''

''We wanted to speak to you, to offer you a deal. We want to create a company for entertainment, and we need a CEO. Since you have sort of an experience, we want to offer the place to you. Since I am going to elope with Sloan, my father gives our company over to me, and I think, if we can't be husband and wife, maybe we would make great business partners.'' Vorona finished, reaching out her hand for a handshake.


Shizuo did agree to the proposal, and became the CEO of the entertainment company, that found aspiring artists, opened new theaters, created original restaurants, hosted and supported talent shows, etc. Since Shizuo employed all his father company's employees, his fathers company went bankrupt, and the attention went only to the CEO Heiwajima.

The company became on of the most succesful in all of Japan, with international conection, thanks to Vorona and Sloan.

Shizuo did not get a new assistant, for it would bring painful memories, and he saved the position if for some miracle reason Izaya would return to him.

It has been over a half year later, when Shizuo saw Izaya again. And not even in person.

It had been a usual work day, and Shizuo had finished a meeting with his business partners, and some employees had handed in some paperwork.

As the blond looked over all the papers, a knock on the door disturbed his peace. He gave the command to come in, and it was somebody, that he didn't expect.

''Mrs. Orihara? What are you doing here?''

''I hope you remember, that I told you long ago, that I won't tell you anything about my son, until he has settled down, right?''

Shizuo just nodded, listening, to what the woman wanted to say, and where she was going with this.

''I received a message from him, that he is more than settled down. His talent has finally been seen in the world of art, so here.''

The raven haired woman reached into her purse, and pulled out a big brown envelope, before bowing and exiting.

''I hope you know what to do with this.''

As soon as she left, the blond grabbed the envelope, opening it. Inside, was a red, American magazine, and on the cover, was none other than Izaya himself. He looked just the same, as h had met him the first time. He was blushing a bit in the picture. The text read.

''New aspiring artist Izaya Orihara crashes into the world of art. See his masterpiece revealed in his debut gallery this Saturday, at Agora gallery, New York.''

Attached to the magazine, was an address.


The crowd was bigger, than Izaya had expected in his entire life. It felt like the whole population of America had swarmed to his debut at the gallery, and he was getting even more nervous. It was time to reveal his masterpiece, and the interview, that went along with it, and his face would be seen on the TV for the whole world to see.

As the time went, the crowd swarmed to the covered painting at the middle of the gallery. Izaya took his place at the podest in front of the piece, ready to reveal the painting.

After a brief introduction of himself, Izaya pulled the string, that was attached to the cover of the painting.

The cover fell off, and revealed his masterpiece. It was a recreation of the painting he had painted on Shizuo's mansions wall, but instead of only his eye's, a pair of caramel brown were put right over his eye's.

''Mr. Orihara! How long did it take to create this masterpiece?''

''It took me about 2 weeks, until I got the feel how to put it on my canvas.''

''Mr. Orihara, does the pair of eye's belong to you?''

''A-ah..yes..yes, they do.''

''Who is owner of the other pair of eye's in the painting. Is it your lover or is it just random?''

The gallery fell silent, as Izaya took in a deep breath.

''The eye's belong to the love of my life, that I lost a long time ago. I don't expect to see this person ever again. This original piece is the only thing I have of them.''

''Bullshit.''

The whole gallery turned around to see, who was the person, that said it. The crowd parted almost like for Moses, revealing a tall, blond man, standing in the middle.

''I call bullshit. I am the owner of the original work. Besides, why would you need only the eye's, when you can have the whole me?''

Izaya's eye's were trembling with unshed tears. His lover was finally standing in front of him. He forgot about the interview, and his debut, making his way down the small stairs, jumping in Shizuo's arms. Forgetting about the cameras filming and the footage being shown all over the world, they came together in a passionate kiss.

After breaking apart, Shizuo reached inside his pocket, pulling out a familiar velvet box, popping it open.

''So, let's redo it. Izaya Orihara, will you marry me? For real this time?''

''I will. I love you, Shizuo.''

''I love you too, Izaya.''

The blond pulled out the new ring out of the box, putting it on his lovers finger, before pulling him in into another kiss.


When Izaya Orihara became Izaya Heiwajima, he was recognized all over the world. He became the Co CEO of the entertainment company, became a world known artist, and finally had the happy ending he deserved. But, let's hear him say it himself.


I had learned to despise love. I thought it was a useless emotion, that could only hurt you. Whispers of love would become lies to my ears. But he made me change my opinion. I have learned to accept love once again. I finally see, that love is supposed to hurt, you have to be hurt, to feel the healing, that love can give a person. I have been married for 2 years now, and I understand love. It can sometimes hurt you, and make you feel like you are going to die, but the happiness you feel, when love brings back the only person you have ever wanted, you know the pain is worth it. And-

''Izaya, would come help me please?''

Pause that thought for a bit.

''Shizuo, are you serious? You still don't know how to do your tie? But, I'll better do it, before we miss the premiere.''

''Thank you, honey. What would I do without you?''

''You wouldn't be able to fix your tie, that's for sure.''

''I love you, Izaya.''

That actually surprised me. But, the answer has become a muscle memory for me now.

''I love you too, Shizu-chan. Now, let's go. We're already late.''

''I'm right behind you.''


You'll wear your Suit

And I'll fix your Tie

We will be together, until the day we die.


And, end it with a corny poem.

Thank you all for sticking to the end of this journey. I love you all from the bottom of my heart.

I'll start working on my next fic in April, so stick around for that.

And so,

goodbye for now,
