Chapter 5

There were alot of clouds in the sky; Shizuo noticed this as he sat in his desk, running a hand through his hair. He sighed, resting his chin in his palm as his eyes shut. It was Friday, finally. He leaned back in his seat, opening his eyes and holding back a sigh as he heard the class door slide open. Shinra stumbled in, Izaya prancing past him to stop at Shizuos desk, a cheery smile on his face. "Good morning, Shizu-Chan."

Shizuo rolled his mocha eyes, looking back towards the window. "Get the hell away from me, Flea."

Izaya pouted, reaching out and playfully tugging at Shizuo's blonde locks. "Ne, is that any way to talk to your new tutor?"

Shizuo swatted the male's hand away before his eye began to twitch. "...So my teacher called you already?"

"Yes," Izaya nodded happily, tugging at Shizuo's hair once more. "Ne, I was also e-mailed your tests scores...I had no idea you were so terrible at math, Shizu-Chan."

Again, Shizuo swatted his hand away, but with more force. He let out a sigh, nodding. "Yes, I suck at math, ok? Big deal...so you're going to help me, or what?"

Izaya hummed a bit. "Well, there's so much you need to cover before the next test...it would take a few days...how about I stay over for the weekend?"

Shizuo stared at the male, shocked to say the least. Even Shinra had been stunned into silence, glancing back and forth between his two friends. Izaya tilted his head, still grinning. Shizuo opened his mouth, no words comming out.

Izaya...in his house...for a few days at once...why was he suddenly feeling dizzy at the thought...?

"Can't we study after school," Shizuo managed to keep his voice even, sounding somewhat annoyed.

"I can't hang out all the time after school, you know,"Izaya stated with a small chuckle, crossing his arms. "This weekend I'm free...unless, the thought of me comming over makes you nervous, Shizu-Chan..."

"Like hell," Shizuo snapped, huffing in annoyance. "Come home with me then...tch."

Izaya's grin widened as he giggled. "That sounds delightful, Shizu-Chan! I can't wait to meet your family!"

"They won't be there," Shizuo snapped quickly, arms crossed.

Izaya's grin faltered a bit. "Eh, why not?"

"My little brother has something to do," Shizuo murmured, gazing out the window. "They'll be gone for a week, starting today. They already left"

Izaya pouted but then a thought occured to him. With Shizuo's family gone, it would be just the two of them for three whole days...alone, with no one to interupt them. Oh, the things he could learn about Shizuo in that time...

"Izaya," Shinra chuckled nervously. "You're doing that creepy grin thing again..."

Izaya spun on his heel, headed for the door. "I'll see you at lunch~"

Shizuo watched Izaya leave, slowly turning to glare at Shinra. "...He's going to molest me in my sleep, isn't he?"

Shinra snickerd, shaking his head. "I don't think he'd do that...but I'm sure he'll grind your nerves."

Shizuo groaned, leaning back and staring at the ceiling. "...I can't attack him in my own house...if I break anything, I'm dead."

Shinra nodded in understanding, sighing. "I'm sure he'll behave...somewhat."

Shizuo sighed, nodding. Class started, students came in, Shinra took notes and Shizuo...well, he didn't do a damn thing. He stared out the window, mind wandering everywhere. It was bad when his mind wandered, though, mostly because the paths it took were dark and usually painful...but he was in class, so he didn't even flinch.

It was lunch soon, Shizuo walking beside Shinra as they made their way to the roof. Shizuo sat down, pulling out a cigarette as Shinra, as usual, set a bento in his lap. Shizuo took a drag of his cigarette before Izaya pranced into their view, a grin on his lips. Shizuo rolled his eyes, taking another long, hard drag. Izaya plopped down across from him, grinning as he opened his own bento. "Ne, shizu-chan, you never look happy to see me."

"Because I don't like you," Shizuo stated, glaring daggers at the male. "Why would I be happy to see you?"

Izaya hummed in thought, plucking some rice up with his chopsticks. "Because I'm drop dead gorgeous?"

Shizuo actually chuckled, raising an eyebrow. "Now who told you that lie?"

Izaya chuckled as well, smirking. "I didn't have to be told; i just know."

Shizuo rolled his eyes, finishing off his cigarette and then unwrapping his bento. Izaya watched carefully, watching as Shizuo's surprisingly delicate fingers gripped his chopsticks. Oddly enough, his crimson eyes followed the chopsticks as they picked up a glob of rice, and they followed as that rice was pushed past soft looking lips. Izaya tilted his head slightly, gazing in wonder at those lips.

Shizu-chan has girlish lips...so soft looking, He mused, taking in another mouthful of his food.

Shinra, meanwhile, was staring at Izaya with an eyebrow raised. He had seen Izaya watching Shizuo and, frankly, it had creeped him out a bit. He knew Izaya had an unhealthy obsession with waching (stalking) people, though this was just weird; he was watching Shizuo eat for god's sake!

Shizuo, after a few oddly silent moments, finally looked up to find crimson orbs staring straight at him. He blinked and then frowned, eye twitching slightly. "Can I help you, flea?"

Izaya mentally cursed himself for being caught, smirking at the blonde. "Oh, no, it's nothing. I suppose I was day dreaming."

Shizuo raised an eyebrow. "While looking at me?...I knew you were freaking creepy."

At that, Shinra snickered. Izaya chuckled as well, though a bit more on the slightly annoyed side. "Me? Creepy? Well, I've never heard such an obvious lie..."

Shizuo rolled his eyes and continued eating, ignoring the other male's existance for the rest of lunch. The bell rang soon and Izaya stood, smiling at Shizuo. "I'll see you after school, Shizu-Chan."

"Get lost," Shizuo muttered, shoving past the slender male with Shinra.

Shinra followed Shizuo down the hall, a small smile playing on his lips."You two kind of got along today."

Shizuo blinked, caught off guard. "Oh...well, yeah guess we did. that's good though, isn't it? If he's going to be comming over to my house, I think it's better if we're on good terms."

Shinra raised an eyebrow. "So you're going to be nice to him today...tomorrow...and the whole time he's at your house?"

Shizuo stopped and glared at his friend a bit. "What, you think I can't do it?"

Shinra sweatdropped,stepping back on instinct. "No, you can totally do it!"

Shizuo rolled his eyes but continued walking. "You're a damn terrible liar..."

Shinra smiled to himself, walking beside his friend. "So, I'm guessing you won't be comming over then, since Izaya is going to your place?"

Shizuo hummed a bit. "Guess not...sorry, man."

"It's fine," Shinra waved it off, smiling brightly. "Just gives me more time alone with Celty..."

"Dude, I'm surprised she hasn't cut your head off," Shizuo snickered, throwing a small smirk at Shinra. "If i was her I would, seeming as you're always making a move on her."

Shinra pouted. "Not nice!"

Shizuo laughed, surprising himself a bit at his sudden change in mood. Earlier that morning, he had woken up feeling like crap but now...he was fine. It almost annoyed him though because he didn't feel really good until he had spoken to Izaya...

He blinked a little. What? No, that flea didn't do anything good to me at all.


The final bell rang and Shizuo sighed, standing. Shinra threw a small smile at his friend, snickering a bit. "Izaya is waiting for you..."

"Shinra," Shizuo warned, frowning. "I won't hesitate to punch you into next week."

Shinra laughed nervously and the two made their way out. Shizuo felt uneasy, his stomach flipping. The walk, suddenly, seemed longer from his class to the front gates. That uneasy feling multipled when he saw Izaya there, smirk on his lips. "Shit..."

"Regrets," Shinra snickered quietly.

Shizuo ignored him, a frown settling on his features as Izaya pranced over to them. "I'm ready to go home with you, Shizu-Chan!"

Shizuo flinched, quickly lashing out to swat at the male's head. "Shut up! The whole world desn't need to know!"

Izaya caught the boy's wrist, snickering lightly. "Easy, Shizu-Chan; if you break me, how can I tutor you?"

Shizuo yanked his wrist free, Izaya's fingers just a bit too close to the scars lying beneath his sleeves. He looked away, huffing. "Whatever...let's just go."

There was a hint of amusement in Izaya's crimson eyes as he chuckled. "Lead the way, Shizu-Chan."

Shizuo hestitated before walking, the other two males following. The first half of the walk, Shizuo knew, would be somewhat bearable considering Shinra would be there. It was the second half that Shizuo was worried about; he'd be alone with Izaya. The thought made him anxious...but he wasn't sure if that was good or bad.

When it came time for Shinra to go his seperate way, he smiled at his two friends. "Well, enjoy your weekend; don't break anything."

"Bye Shinra," Izaya smiled, waving.

Shizuo rolled his eyes, looking at the brunette. "Text you later, tell Celty and your dad I'll come over another time."

Shinra nodded, waved goodbye, and walked off. Shizuo stood there for a moment, raising an eyebrow at the raven haired male grinning at him. "Well, let's go, Shizu-Chan."

Shizuo heaved a sigh, adjusting his school bag. "Right..."

"It's a shame I won't meet your family," Izaya noted as they began walking again, Shizuo keeping a distance. "I wanted to meet your parents and this little brother I heard about."

Shizuo rolled his eyes. "Well, sorry. they're gone till nest Friday."

That made Izaya raise an eyebrow in surprise. "They left you alone for a week? I was under the impression that it was just for the weekend."

Shizuo shook his head as they turned a corner. "No, a week."

Izaya shrugged a bit, yawning. "Poor Shizu-Chan...won't you be lonely?"

Shizuo frowned a bit. Of course he'd be lonely, but he'd also be safe. But it's not like Izaya would understand that. He surpressed a heavy sigh, walking a bit faster. "No, I won't be lonely at all."

Izaya followed the blonde, a frown on his lips. Shizuo seemed so different from when he had met him just days before and he didn't know why; that pissed him off. He was used to knowing people long before they even knew him, so one could only imagine his frustrations when it came to Shizuo. the first day Shizuo had been a big ball of rage, but then all that rage had melted into awkward nervousness as soon as his father had shown up. And, the day after, Shizuo had been dull, as if he was in some other world...and now he was just so...he wanted to say moody, but it wasn't even that. He was just...weird.

Izaya hated not knowing, but that's what this weekend was for; he would find out every little detail about Shizuo, what made him tick and what brought him to his knees...it was brilliant.

Shizuo stopped infront of his house, taking a deep breath as he glanced at Izaya. The other male stared at the house, head tilted and a small smirk on his face. "It isn't terribly small, but it isn't obnoxiously large...it seem's cozy."

Shizuo rolled his eyes, walking to the front door and opening it. "Get inside."

Izaya skipped inside, respectfully kicking off his shoes at the door. He walked in, looking around the livingroom. He nodded to himself, smiling. "Such a cozy little livingroom...I bet you and your family spend hours in here doing adorable family activites!"

"Not really," Shizuo muttered, headed for the hall. "At least, i don't; my brother hangs out here with my parents for a few hours every day...I stay in my room."

"Typical of a teenager," Izaya sighed, following the blonde. "What do you do in there, all alone?"

Shizuo shrugged slightly. "Listen to music, watch anime, read manga...sleep."

Izaya found himself frowning. "How...boring. You don't play with your brother?"

Shizuo scoffed, stopping infront of his bedroom door. "No, I don't play with my brother. I have better things to do and so does he."

Izaya raised an eyebrow. "What could possibly be better than enjoying quality time with your baby sibling?"

Shizuo threw open his bedroom door, tossing his bag aside. "Anime."

Izaya felt himself roll his eyes, taking off his black jacket and setting it gently on Shizuo's bed. Shizuo was already at the computer but Izaya walked over, quickly shutting off the monitor. shizuo whirled around, standing. "What the hell?!"

"I'm here to tutor," Izaya reminded with a small smirk, crossing his arms. "You can watch cartoons after we're done."

Shizuo felt his eyebrow twitch. "It's anime...not cartoons, flea..."

Izaya rolled his eyes, plopping on Shizuo's bed. "Come on, pull out your homework and I'll help you."

Shizuo rolled his eyes as well, looking towards his previously discarded school bag. "...I suck at numbers so it'll take a while..."

Izaya smirked. "Just let me help; I'll teach you everything you need to know."

Shizuo stiffened at the sensual and...almost erotic tone of the raven haired teen's voice. He gulped and turned away quickly, praying that he wasn't blushing.

The hell was that?, He shook his head a bit.

Izaya grinned, not missing the blush staining Shizuo's cheeks. His grin twisted into a smirk as he watched the blonde move around the room. Things just got interesting...

Damn, Izaya, what are you up to, you little flea...? Ahh, and Shizuo...ok, from here on i promise it's just Izaya and Shizuo!...until...the weekend is over, of course ^^ Hmm...what will izaya "teach" shizuo...? Or what will izaya learn in his place...? ^^
