_Small TIME SKIP + Mikoto's POV_
The sun outside the apartment window had already set & the clock on the wall read 11:25 pm. Shizuo usually would've been home hours ago & we would've eaten dinner together. But princess isn't home, & this was really weird, even for him. "Where is he?" Flicking the remote of the televison had gotten boring after about an hour, so I'd stopped on the news channel to see if anything crazy like vending machines flying around the city came up. It didn't. Now I'm really worried.
Finally, the sound of a key unlocking the front door was heard and in walked Shizuo. But something about him was off, i just couldn't tell what though, "Hey."
"..." Blondie just walked right past me, acting as if he'd forgotten I existed or as if I'm not here or something. Then for some reason he just shut himself inside his bedroom. No gesture, not even a hello. That's really weird...
"Oh well, probably just tired from work. Speaking of tired," I laid my head on the pillow, stretched my body over the couch, and fell asleep.
Next Day / Day 1
Damn... What time is it? I feel like I slept like rock last night. Which is weird because usually I just fall asleep without feeling anything, you know? ...7:24 am, Princess should be leaving for work soon. Well, I just leave a note saying that I went to the bar.
Time Skip = Later That Night
Man, it's good to be home. At least here I can have some personal time with Princess. Hey, wait... What the hell? My note looks as if it didn't get touched at all. As I sigh, I guess what Shizuo didn't have time to read it or something. But now to get my I'm-in-love-with-entertainer & entertainment. "Hey Shizu-"
"..." seriously? You fall asleep before I even get home? Well, I don't blame him, he did come really late last night. Asleep or not this is still gonna be fun. Laying on Princess's bed behind him, I slowly slip my arms around him & start to undo his shirt. While at the same time I let my tongue slowly licking down his neck. As it's done, I let each of my hand play around with one of his- *a phone starts ringing* ((sorry, I'm not too well with writing phone sounds)) "I'm gonna take the call," he wasn't asleep!? Damn, I could've had some more fun.
Day 2
Something's up with Princess. This morning he didn't completely ignored me & now he's showing up late again tonight. Wonder if I did something wrong?
Day 3
Okay, am I doing something wrong!? Because so far, today is the same thing as yesterday!
Day 4
Dammit. Even being at the bar doesn't help lighten my mood, "Mikoto-san, what's wrong?" Crap. I can't even hide that I'm pissed with my outside expression, & usually that's not a problem.
"Nothing Yata..." I'm just gonna try taking a stroll around Ikebukuro. Not like I have much of an option anyway.
Izumo's POV [FINALLY! I'VE MADE IT HIS POV WHILE IT FITS DURING/IN THE STORY! I FEEL SO PROUD OF MYSELF! T~T]
"Nothing Yata..." What the hell is up with him? Until now, Mikoto's never been this way in Ikebukuro. Not even Anna was able to get him to talk one proper sentence earlier! He doesn't really do much around the town, so then... it's gotta be something with Shizuo.
"Hey, Anna. Do me a favor & watch over my bar, alright? And make sure none of the guys make even a dent on it," or else.
"Okay," now. How do you find a guy who can throw things that shouldn't be possible (the guys told me the story, yet I'm still believing it anyway) in reality that's practically got the same kind of get-up as me?
_Later [Like maybe about an hour & a half]_
Oh god! How much of this city is there!? And I can't believe it's this hard to find just one guy in this town! In Shizumi I would've most likely find the guy by now. Might as well head back to the bar. I don't know how much longer I can do t-
"Gah! G-Gomen. Wait, Izumo?" How does this guy- Oh.
"Shizuo, oh & it's okay. This just happened on accident. ((Where does that sound familiar? Look back at chapter 1 CX)) Besides, I was trying to find you so I could to talk you about something."
"Um... Alright," either Shizuo doesn't want to talk to me or he's just really trying to ignore me.
"Well, I wanted to ask if there's something up with you & Mikoto. Like-"
"Nothing's happened. We're only at a stop," a stop? What's- ...Oh shit!
"Hang on, you two haven't broken up yet or something, right!?"
"It's not that. I'm just, having second thoughts about him..."
"Are you insane?! You guys have been together for nearly one third of half a year, & now you get second thoughts!? Three months is a very early time in a relationship! Especially one that you & he had- I mean, have!" Come on Izumo, calm down. Just take a deep breath & continue. "Look. Whenever people are together & happy, it's usually as if you're in a trance. But you & Mikoto made it seem like a completely different thing. Making it more like two pieces of a heart that both have been longing for the other to be complete. You two are those pieces. Whatever you guys are fighting over about, look it over & apologize. Seeing the two of you like this just isn't right. Okay?"
Shizuo's POV
"Whatever you guys are fighting over about, look it over & apologize. Seeing the two of you like this just isn't right. Okay?" Dammit. How the hell can I be in love with someone who's just using me!?
"...I got a question."
"I'd be glad to answer if it'll help you."
"Why are you guys in Ikebukuro?"
"Hm? Well that's easy. Back in our city, Shizumi, we were more like criminals-that-came-to-be. You know? So we came here to restart our lives. Live more like a family than just some gang."
"So, wait. You guys aren't here to catch someone you guys are after?"
"Pssh! No way. Plus, if we were, we would've caught the guy by now. And we're not gonna leave back to Shizumi when Mikoto's got you now," ...Izaya. Is. Dead.
Izaya's POV
Tch! So that brute found out about the truth, did he? I just can never get a hold of that protozoan! That monster needs to stop getting in my way. But still, I guess it's time to use Plan B. And this one will be more devastating than the what I did to you a few days ago, Shizu-chan.
Well then! Time to start planning on how I will have Shizu-chan fall apart again! Let's see, he's starting to heal, so I'm just going to have to reopen that wound. Then I should strike where it hurts so much for him, he'll have to look away & run. That part is one that should be very easy. All I have to do is...
_Later + Shizuo's POV_
"Hey, thanks for walking me home Izumo."
"Don't worry about it. And I'm just glad to know that your relationship with Mikoto will be back when we get to your place."
"Yeah. Though I still feel bad about ignoring him for 5 days."
"It won't be problem. I have a feeling your 'apology' will end up being something more than you expected."
"Wha- Dammit Izumo! Don't talk about stuff like that in that kind of way! It's freaking embarrassing!"
"Embarrassing? Or the fact that you just don't want to accept what you're gonna have to be dealing with soon?" Quit laughing like that! It's so not funny! "Hey Mikoto, guess who I-"
...What. The. Hell?
CLIFFHANGER! YES! Stick around & wait for chapter 8 to see what will happen. And if I get enough reviews for this chapter that will satisfy me, I might lower the level of pain to Shizuo. It's up to you guys if you want to keep him suffereing! MWAHAHAHAHA!
