Izaya looked blankly at the doctor in front of him before giving him a small smirk.
"Nice to see you Shinra, I was waiting for you to come back. Where's Celty?"
"Izaya, you... we're going to keep an eye on you for a while so you won't hurt yourself, okay?"
"No."
"Izaya, just look at yourself.."
"No."
Giving up, the underground doctor looked down closing his eyes and stood up. Walking out the door, he glanced back before speaking once again with a serious expression.
"The most I can do is give you medications to reduce your stress. Its up to you if you want to fight it or not."
Red brownish eyes watched the doctor leave the room and sighed to himself. He looked at the television screen that a person sent a message using his name. Yes, he did decide the song to have a hidden message, but how did they find out? The voice on the screen belongs to a male, and he slowly went over the possibilities in his head. But after a moment of thinking too hard, he found himself sleeping on the bed that wasn't even his.
The peaceful sleeping soon ended as he jolted up in the middle of the night panting and sweating. When he turned and took a good look, he realized he was no longer at Shinra's place either. Where was he? The fact that he was in an unknown place frightened him even more as much as he hate to admit it. Trying to calm down, he fixated his sight on the wall in front of him. Huge mistake.
Shadows on the male turned into faces he did not recognize. Hearing voices saying "Hide yourself" and "Your nobody" repeatedly over and over gave him chills as Izaya's hand slowly covered his ears. His hands were ice cold as he shut his eyes trying to make the noise go away. Opening his mouth, he went to the only solution he knew.
"Let someone by here,
Be here with me,
And take off my facade,
With words saying-"
"Its okay, its alright
You don't have to hide that face anymore,
I just want you to be true,
The true you"
Izaya eyes immediately opened when he heard another voice singing the song. His hand slowly dropped and saw a blonde sitting on the bed beside him looking out the window calmly like nothing was wrong in the world. The shadows and other voices disappeared and Izaya found himself sing alongside with the person he least liked.
"If your feeling sad, go ahead and cry
If your frustrated, let it out
I'm here for you
Till death do us part
Happy, sad, angry, I'll carry your burden too."
When they ended, Izaya looked up at the other male with his mouth slightly open. They sang in perfect harmony, and Izaya was surprised that the blonde's vocal skills wasn't as terrible as he thought it would be. The informant figured the other male knew he was Divined Melody since they did a mini-duet right there. And as strange as it may be, the raven head male actually found comfort when hearing the other's voice.
"Go back to sleep flea."
Couldn't find his voice, he found himself being gently pushed back onto the bed with warmth holding his cold hands. His eyes gradually closed and for the first time in a few months, he found peaceful sleep.
Time Skip
He knew he was being out of character. But he couldn't help smiling when he saw the slightly smaller male sleeping peacefully in his arms. The sun was already up, and he knew he would wake Izaya up if he moved. Last night was an odd one, and he was glad that he listened to most of Divined Melody's song to sing with him.
Yesterday, he managed to convince Shinra to take Izaya to his place so that he can look over him. Not sure if this was attachment, or plain stubbornness that won't let Izaya get hurt from anything but from him, or just worry. Something shifted under his body as he spotted wide eyes staring at his brown ones. Looks like sleeping beauty was awake. Wait what. Sleeping beauty?
"... Morning."
The next reaction wasn't expected at all. He watched the raven headed male stay silent before having a dark expression punching Shizuo on the chest. Ouch. But not really, compared to the usual getting hit by trucks and such, this was nothing.
"Mind explaining where I am Shizu-chan?"
"My place."
"And why?"
"To look after you."
"Sorry Shizu-chan, I'm not like humans who need someone to look after."
"What's wrong with being human?"
The last question hit Izaya in the head pretty... hard. His god complex probably was getting the best of him, but he growled trying to think of something witty to answer back. Losing an argument with Shizuo Heiwajima? It should be the other way around.
"..."
"Im going to make some food then."
His eyes followed the blonde as he felt the warmth of his body fade away and heard the beating of his own heart. What is his body pulling off now? Not really wanting to know, he sat up and placed on feet on the ground. His eyes fell on a scissor and felt his blood run. The little boy came up to him tugging at the end of his shirt.
"Lets play again Izaya-san!"
