Celty wasn't sure if it was a good thing or not. Her sister had admitted to her that she thought Izaya was cute. It wasn't that Celty didn't like Izaya it was just that he was… Izaya. She didn't want her sister to get her feelings hurt by him or worse. Celty didn't even want to imagine what could be worse than that, but still she also wondered what would happen if he returned her sister's feelings. They'd be kind of like her and Shinra but Celty still wasn't sure about it.
Keira was sitting there playing a video game with Shinra and losing just like Celty usually did. Shinra had eased dropped in on their conversation and both girls threatened him not to tell. Shinra acted like a brother to Keira since he technically was Celty's boyfriend.
"So what are you going to do when Izaya-san figures it out?" Shinra asked her when she lost. Celty listened in wondering what her sister would say.
"I don't know," she said with a shrug, "what'd you do when Celty figured out you liked her?"
"Nothing really changed." He said with a shrug.
"There's your answer." She said waving her hand and picking up the controller again.
"What if he doesn't like you back?" Celty asked and she shrugged.
"Nothing would change then." She said emotionlessly, "Oh and someone's at the door."
Celty stood up as someone knocked on the door and silently sighed at her sister who smirked. A guy in a bartender uniform walked in with a knife stuck in his shoulder.
"Shizuo-san, wait a second while I go get my medical kit." Shinra said pausing the game and then quickly taking off to get what he needed. The blonde man sat down next to Keira as he grumbled.
"How did this happen?" Celty asked him and he sighed.
"Dumb ass bastard was pushing around some girl and…" Shizuo sighed and took off his shades, "… I kicked his ass and then the girl stabbed me." Keira started to laugh at what he had said and then he glared over at her, "What the fuck are you laughing about."
"You got stabbed by a girl." She said giggling at him.
"Who the hell are you?" he asked her and she smiled at him.
"I'm Celty's sister, Keira." She told him as she cocked her head to the side, "why are you so angry?"
"Because I have a FUCKING KINFE in my shoulder!" he yelled at her and she started giggling again.
"Please ignore her," Celty wrote and stuck her PDA in his face, "She likes to mess around with people."
"I'm sorry, Shizuo-san?" she asked and he nodded that that was his name, "I'll tone my playfulness down."
"So, you're really Celty-san's sister?" he asked and she nodded with a smile, "You sure don't act like it."
"She's the… normal one, or at least that was what mom used to say." Keira said smiling in a way that made her eyes close.
"I can't blame her." He said and then looked at Celty who shrugged, "You act kind of like the Flea."
"Does this Flea have a name other than Flea?" She asked him and he sighed.
"Iza –" Celty put a hand over his mouth and then started to type quickly on her PDA.
"Don't insult Izaya-san, Keira likes him and I don't know how she'd react." Celty showed only Shizuo and didn't say anything so that her sister couldn't hear what she was saying.
"Oh," Shizuo said with a nod, "I feel sorry for her."
"I just love when people talk about me like I'm not even here." Keira glared at the two them unhappily.
"Sorry," the both told her at the same time.
"Heiwajima Shizuo?" Keira asked with furrowed brows.
"Yeah, how'd you…" Shizuo shook his head. Everyone knew who he was from his strength, so it wasn't much of a surprise.
"So you're the one that hit Izaya-san with a trash bin?" she said smirking at him. Shizuo didn't like that look. It was too much like the one Izaya gave people.
"Yeah, so?" he said with a shrug of the shoulder that didn't have a knife in it.
Keira stood up as Shinra came back in the room and she walked past Shizuo and then paused for a moment.
"Okay I have the kit." Shinra said and then Keira reached over and pulled the knife out of his shoulder.
"Ouch!" Shizuo yelled as she walked away from them with the knife in her hand. The knife changed shape in her hands and she walked over and opened the sliding glass door that led out to the balcony and threw what was now a red and grey bird into the air. Keira was expressionless as she walked out of the room.
"What got into her?" Shinra asked as he began to tend to Shizuo's wound now that it was worse.
"Fucking Izaya-kun." Shizuo snarled at him.
It was cool outside as Keira walked out of Shinra and Celty's apartment. She thought Shizuo was an interesting human but she still didn't like that he had hit Izaya. She blamed her overly protective nature for her actions but it was more like she was giving Izaya indirect revenge. She knew that they both hated each other which she found hilarious since she had never really understood the emotion of hatred.
"Well hello Keira-chan~!" She jumped when she heard Izaya's voice. Keira hadn't even noticed where she was going but when he pulled her out of her thoughts. Izaya had just gotten out of someone else's car. The guy she saw inside was wearing a white suit and a black shirt under that and he had a scar on his face.
"Hi Izaya-san." She said with a smile as he closed the door to the car behind him. The car drove away and Izaya walked over to her smirking.
"What are you doing out so late?" Izaya asked her and she shrugged.
"I just felt like cooling off my temper…" she mumbled but he still heard her. Izaya smirked even more at her words.
"Aw, what happened to make Keira-chan so angry?" He asked with fake concern as he leaned down and got close to her face.
"I…" she got quiet, "… I met Heiwajima Shizuo."
"Really now?" Izaya said and she could feel anger come from him but she knew it wasn't directed at her.
"Yeah, he had a knife in his shoulder but I kind of took it out for him." She couldn't help the smirk on her face.
"I'm guessing you didn't do that out of kindness?" Izaya said smiling at her happily.
"Kindness? Me, oh never." She said jokingly to him and they laughed a little.
"Well, I should get going before Shizu-chan comes back from Shinra-san's." he said smiling at her.
"He'll probably be there awhile since I made that wound worse." She said with a shrug.
"Hmm…" Izaya smirked, "… you want to go get Sushi again?"
"Sure," she said cheerfully to him, "that otoro stuff was really good."
"I know; it's my favorite." He said walking with her.
Izaya knew she was flirting with him as he walked her back to Shinra's apartment. He didn't really care though. Keira was adorable even if she wasn't human, even if Izaya didn't really like her. He wanted to figure her out and that was all he wanted to do.
"Hey," she said and Izaya could hear the shy tone in her voice, "why do you have it anyway?"
"Well I sort of got it from my secretary so that her brother wouldn't take it." Izaya told her and she nodded, "I figured it wouldn't hurt to keep it around since it was Celty-san's head."
"You won't give it back to her will you?" she asked him and he shook his head.
"Are… Are Dullahans actually Valkyries?" Izaya couldn't help but ask and Keira smiled gently at him.
"No, Valkyries are kind of like angels, um, and Dullahans are more like grim reapers." She told him and he furrowed his brow at her.
"Are you saying that there's a heaven and a hell?" he asked her and she shrugged.
"I don't know," she told him, "I'll never find out but if those places do exist I wish you luck on getting to heaven."
"Why wouldn't you find out?" he asked her and she got quiet.
"I helped the Seelie Court fight against the Unseelie Court a few hundred or more years ago and…" Keira got quiet and her expression turned to a sad one, "… I was punished by being given immortality and being exiled from all other faeries."
"How is immortality punishment?" Izaya said chuckling but she stayed serious.
"I have to watch those around he grow old and die," she told him, "I'll never be able to see my…"
Izaya watched as she bit her lips as she walked with her head down. He could see that she was very sad but he wasn't sure why. He wondered who she'll never be able to see.
"Who?" Izaya asked her.
"My mother… she fought on the Unseelie side and I'll never be able to tell her that I'm sorry for betraying her…" She told him and for a moment Izaya felt like comforting her.
"Well that sucks." He said nonchalantly but somehow that made her smile. It was because she could feel his pity and caring for that one little moment before he went back to being himself.
"Well I guess I'll see you later." She said as they reached the apartment building. It looked as if Celty and Shinra had already gone to bed from how the lights were off. Keira sighed at how worried they'd seemed at how she'd just walked out at eleven something at night.
"You know one of these days you'll have to pay me back for paying for you're to sushi twice." Izaya said to her and she smirked at him.
"I'll do a favor or something then." She said with a shrug as she leaned against the door for a moment. Izaya smirked and then got into her face. It usually didn't bother her but there was something in his eyes that made her nervous.
"What kind of favor?" he whispered softly as his warm breath trailed across her skin. Keira blushed but her expression didn't change.
"Any kind you want." She said and then kissed him to his surprise.
The shock didn't last long for Izaya though. He snaked an arm around her waist and pulled her closer which surprised her as she gasped. Izaya took advantage of her parted lips and slipped his tongue into her mouth to feel around at her shier tongue. Keira started to back up until he was pressing her against the door. Izaya pressed his body against hers earning a soft moan that she tried to hide and at that he broke the kiss.
"Any kind I want, hmm?" Izaya repeated smirking at her blushing face as she breathed heavily, "what if I want a sexual favor?"
"I…" she blushed and looked away from him. He knew she wouldn't go as far as that for sushi; it was a little ridiculous after all. See her like his though, it was what he wanted, and he liked it. "… I kind of like you…"
"Huh?" Izaya said not expecting that. She quickly grabbed him by his shirt and then kissed him again, but kind of roughly. She turned around and then darted through the door and leaving Izaya standing dumb founded out on the stoop.
Ladybug's Ramble: Yeah... I'm probably going to change the rating for this to M. Do you think I should do that? I'm glad that some of you are liking this! I know that I have a few people that have me on their alerts but I know more of you have to be reading this! Review people! Even if you don't have a fanfic account (which you really should get even if you don't write) you can review on this. I'm just cool like that. I think this chapter kind of let you know how childish Keira is and how she doesn't really know what her actions imply, like when she kissed Izaya after saying "Any kind you want." she didn't realize that translated into "I want to do 'things' with you," (you better know what I mean by 'things'!). Oh and Izaya was just being a guy there when he was talking about *cough* 'favors' *cough*... I mean he is a man after all. Sorry if he was OOC but I think he was less OOC in this chapter than in the other one. Ladybug out~!
Oh and to Bree Renee, Smile9316, and celticgod I thank you for your reviews!
