"Izaya I really need to see you eat something, you're getting way to skinny." Shinra said as he brought in a plate of sushi to the information broker. Izaya was lying on his back and staring up at the white ceiling, he hadn't moved for three days which was really worrying Shinra. It had been weeks since he had been put into the solitary confinement room; ever since then he would just lay on the floor for days on end staring at the ceiling or crying…he really didn't "cry" per-say, tears would just spill out of his eyes but he wouldn't scrunch his face up or start sobbing. Whenever Shinra would bring him something to eat he would only take a few bites then got back to staring at the ceiling.
"Izaya please eat…or move…just let me know that you're still alive!" Shinra said nervously; he could see bags under the raven's eyes, signaling that he hadn't slept in a long time.
"But I don't want to be alive." Izaya said almost to quiet for the underground doctor to hear; Shinra sighed heavily as he reached out a hand towards the male. Izaya grabbed it and let Shinra hoist him up to his feet; the raven stretched his tired muscles and stared at the brunet with annoyed expression.
"You shouldn't lie down for such long periods of time; you could really hurt your back like that." Shinra explained as he handed the plate of food to Izaya.
"I'm not hungry." Izaya said as he tried to hand the plate of food back to the underground doctor.
"Izaya I can see your ribs right now, you need to eat something or you'll starve to death…." The two were interrupted by the sound of someone knocking at the apartment door.
"I want to see that plate cleared by the time I get back." Shinra said fiercely as he left the room, closing the door behind him.
"Oh, hello Kasuka." Shinra said cheerfully as he answered the door; the young actor smiled as he was invited into the apartment.
"I'm glad your finally out of the hospital; how's your injuries?" Shinra asked curiously as he saw that all the casts were off of the younger male's body.
"All my injuries healed fairly quickly, aside from a few scrapes and bruises I'm feeling fine." Kasuka said, he actually did still have a small bruise on the corner of his lip and a few more on his arms and chest.
"I'm surprised Shizuo isn't with you, I thought he was going to start being your bodyguard while you're in town filming your movie?"
"I told him I'd be getting out of the hospital so I could come see how Izaya was doing; has he been making progress?" Kasuka asked; Shinra sighed and waved the actor towards the room he kept Izaya in.
"Well he knows what he's doing is wrong, that much is clear…he's just been through a lot and has had some bad experiences with people so I know this is going to take a lot of work. He's been so depressed lately so I wanted to let him out today so he could do his job; he loves being an informant so maybe that will cheer him up. The only problem is Celty can't watch him today because someone had called her for a job." Shinra said as he opened the door to the SC room. Izaya was lying back down on the floor with the plate of untouched food beside him.
"Izaya-kun I thought I told you to eat everything on that plate." Shinra said angrily as he bent down to grab the plate from off the floor.
"I don't want to eat, get off my back." Izaya spat back as he kept his vision on the ceiling.
"Hello, Izaya-kun." Izaya sat up at the sound of a familiar voice; his eyes widened when he saw the young actor staring at him indifferently. He turned his head away as his body started to shake.
"Hello…Kasuka…where's your brother? I thought he was supposed to be protecting you from me?" Izaya asked; not making any attempt to look at the actor.
"I told him I wouldn't be getting out of the hospital until tomorrow, if he was with me I knew he wouldn't have let me come here." Kasuka said; he moved closer to the raven as he noticed he couldn't look at him.
"Well…why did you come here? Did you come to tell me that you've decided to throw me in jail?" Izaya asked; his body was shaking so much that it was very noticeable by the other two males in the room.
"No, I came to pick you up because today I'm going to be your babysitter." This made Izaya look at him.
"Babysitter? If you haven't noticed I'm a twenty-one year old grown man and I'm a lot older then you kid; I don't need a babysitter!" Izaya said angrily; he flinched when he was suddenly grabbed roughly by the collar of his shirt.
"Look Izaya, it's either you let me babysit you for today or I call my agent and get you thrown in jail so fast it'll make your head spin." Kasuka said fiercely; Izaya swallowed hard and nodded.
"You really are Shizu-chan's brother." Izaya said as Kasuka released him; he followed him out of the room as Shinra went to go get his regular clothes.
"Here Izaya; you had no idea how long it took me to pull out all the blades and pocket knives hidden in your clothes." Shinra laughed as he handed the folded clothes to the raven.
"Those were really expensive Shinra; you didn't throw them out or sell them did you?" Izaya asked nervously as he started towards the bathroom to change.
"Of course not, I have them in a safe place and will give them back to you when I know I can trust you with them." Shinra said happily; Izaya changed quickly before coming out of the bathroom and handing Shinra his snow white clothes.
"So what do you plan to do with me Kasuka-chan?" Izaya asked as the two walked out of Shinra's apartment; Kasuka just shrugged and started walking in the direction of Izaya's apartment.
"Let's go back to your place; you have work to do don't you?" Kasuka asked as he shoved his hands in his jeans pockets; Izaya grinned and started skipping ahead of the young actor.
"Whatever you say Kasuka-chan!" Izaya said happily, he was already starting to feel better at the sound of him being able to do his beloved job.
Izaya's apartment…
"Remember everything electronic that you own is monitored so don't try anything." Kasuka said as he started flipping through the channels on Izaya's flat screen TV.
"I won't, I'm just glad to be able to go on my chat rooms and get all the updates on this wonderful city." Izaya said excitedly; his fingers flew across his keyboard as he kept his eyes glued to the multiple computer screens. The two were quiet for a while, until Izaya suddenly stopped typing on his keyboard.
"…Kasuka?" Izaya asked as he stood up from his desk chair and started to walk over to the brunet.
"Yea?" Kasuka answered, not taking his eyes off of the show he was watching.
"….I'm…I'm sorry for hurting you, I wasn't really thinking when I did what I did to you. I was in a dark place in my mind back then….I really am sorry…" Izaya said, blushing a little as he walked back to his desk.
"Thanks Izaya-kun…Nii-san told me everything that you said had happened to you, were you just looking for sympathy or did all that stuff really happen to you?" Kasuka asked curiously.
"It all happened to me, trust me I don't need sympathy from Shinra and Shizu-chan." Izaya said, a grin spreading across his face. The two flinched at the sound of one of their phones ringing; surprisingly it was Kasuka's. He sighed as he answered it.
"Hey Nii-san, what's up?" Kasuka asked as he answered the phone; Izaya's eyes widened when he heard it was Shizuo on the other end of the phone.
"Where the hell are you, I went to visit you in the hospital today and the receptionist said you had already checked out." Shizuo said angrily, he was really worried about his baby brother.
"I'm babysitting Izaya-kun today; Shinra let him out for the day and I offered to look after him since Celty was busy." Kasuka said simply.
"You're what? I'm coming over to that bastard's apartment right now!" Shizuo barked into the phone before Kasuka heard the line go dead.
"Nii-san is coming over." Kasuka said to the raven as he went back to watching the TV.
"What? He's coming here? How could you tell him i was here?" Izaya yelped as he jumped up from his chair.
"Technically I didn't tell him you were here; he assumed we were here and just happened to be right." Kasuka said; Izaya grinded his teeth together as he started running all over his apartment for one of his switchblades.
"Where the hell are all my blades?" Izaya screamed as he ran around in a panicked state around his apartment.
"Shinra had Celty find all of them and give them to him; it was easy finding them since your secretary was happy to show her all you're hiding spots." Kasuka explained.
"Remind me to fire her ass later." Izaya said annoyed as he went to all his hiding spots; he nearly jumped out of his skin when his door was kicked down.
"IIIIZZZAAAAYYYYAAA!" Shizuo screamed as he entered the apartment; he was panting heavily as he looked around the apartment for the flea.
"Hey Nii-san." Kasuka said as he pulled himself off of the couch and approached his older brother.
"Where is that bastard?" Shizuo asked as he stormed around the apartment; unaware that the informant was busy hiding under his desk.
"Don't hurt him Nii-san; he hasn't done anything bad all day and Shinra said he's been really depressed lately. Also he doesn't have any of his weapons so it wouldn't be a fair fight." Kasuka said, crossing his arm across his chest.
"Why are you defending him? Have you forgotten he almost killed you?"
"No I haven't, but he did apologies for it so don't hurt him. I'm just hanging out here with him for the day until I have to bring him back to Shinra's." All Izaya heard for a while was silence, he was so afraid his breathing might be heard that he started to hold his breath.
"Come out flea, I know your hiding around here somewhere." Shizuo said loudly as he started to look around for the informant. Izaya closed his eyes tightly and hugged his knees tightly to his chest; just wishing the monster would leave him alone. He couldn't handle looking at him, he just couldn't…
"Found you flea." Izaya's eyes shot open as he was suddenly grabbed roughly from under his desk, he was thrown onto the carpeted floor with a loud bang. Izaya felt like he was going to pass out as he injured head hit the hard floor; he had eaten hardly anything and hadn't really slept for the past couple of weeks so that wasn't helping at all. He moved himself on his hands and knees and started to try to get up; after a while of trying to get on at least one foot Izaya failed miserably.
"Do you need help Izaya-kun? You don't look so good." Kasuka said as he stepped forward to help the informant.
"No!" Izaya growled as he stayed on the floor, trying to catch his breath.
"If you need help just say so flea." Shizuo said annoyed as he grabbed the smaller male's arm and hoisted him up to his feet. Izaya quickly backed away from the blonde, his eyes locked on him.
"You're welcome." Shizuo spat out at him; Izaya didn't say anything he just continued to stare at him.
"You really don't need to be here Nii-san; I've got everything under control." Kasuka said, breaking the awkward silence between the two.
"I don't trust the parasite alone with you." The bodyguard said fiercely.
"Fine, if you're so worried then why don't you watch him? I have some lines I need to rehearse anyway." Kasuka offered; Izaya was doubtful the blonde would consider spending the day keeping an eye on him.
"Sure, if you need to leave I'll watch him for you."Izaya thought he heard his jaw hit the floor when he heard that. Kasuka smiled and reached into his pocket to pull out a small medicine bottle; it was familiar to Izaya since those were the bottle of pills Shinra had been giving him for the past couple of weeks.
"This is his medicine; Shinra gave some to him a little while ago so give him some more in about an hour." Kasuka explained as he grabbed his jacket and headed towards the door.
"Oh and you have to make sure he eats something, Shinra thinks he's starving himself to death. If he refuses to eat Shinra gave me permission to hold him down and force the food into him so I guess you can do that to. See you later Nii-san!" Kasuka waved goodbye to the two before leaving them alone.
