Shizuo Heiwajima. The monster of Ikebukuro. Known for throwing vending machines, sign posts and trash cans at a certain 'flea' that steps into his territory. Then there was you, an innocent person who has known the monster for a majority of your life, and it was only you who was able to calm the brute from killing or hurting innocent people.
It was like any normal day in ikebukuro, you was just leaving work and walking down the streets as the day slowly turned to night. You were thinking quietly to yourself about random things, such as new manga and anime, but you were disturbed from your sea of thoughts when the usual cry of hatred rang out from the other side of the city. With a sigh you make your way to where the scream came from, you merely sweat dropped once you approached a large crowd of people as they cheered for a fight. You pushed past the hoards of people, managing to get to the front in time to see Izaya pull his switchblade out and launch towards Shizuo, swinging and slicing through his clothes and scrapping at the skin of his chest, causing a small cut to form. The sight of your friend being hurt angered you deeply, so when Izaya went to go a give another deadly slice to Shizuo, you ran out from the crowd and pushed Shizuo out of the way in time. Shizuo was unharmed from the second strike, you however, had a slice along your exposed arm, the red blood driping down from the cut and falling from your fingertips.
Looking to Shizuo's shocked expression, you smile warmly and slowly go over to him, not caring about your bleeding arm as you sit down beside his fallen form.
"Are you ok, Shizuo-kun?..." You say in the normal small and timid voice of yours, however you actions form earlier speak otherwise.
"It should be whos asking you that! Why did you jump in the way like that?! You foolish girl! That flea could of killed you!" Shizuo practically shouted at you and he looked over your bleeding arm, ignoring the stares a whispers of everyone as he acts so gentle and calm towards you, even ignoring the raven haired male that looked to you and him in annoyance.
"Shizuo-kun, Im fine...its just...a little...cut..." You mutter quietly before suddenly falling forward into his arms, passing out from exhaustion. Shizuo, being Shizuo, he started to panic and quickly picked you up in a bridal style. Looking around frantically before running towards his mad friends house, Shinra. Once he finally got to his friends apartment, his kicked down the down with his monsterous strength and looked to his friend in the labcoat as they came to the door in a hurry.
"Help her. Now." and as Shizuo muttered those words, Shinra was on the case, taking you from his arms and laying you onto the tablein his make shift office. He looked back to Shizuo's bleeding chest as the blonde looked down to you in worry.
"Shizuo, why dont you go to the living room and have Celty bandage your chest, Ill help _-chan, you dont have to worry anymore, ok?" His words seemed to calm the usually angery man as he leaves the office to sit in the living room impatiently.
After what seemed like hours, Shinra was down with you and your wounds. His smile, although sometimes creepy, made Shizuo slightly happy as he sits up properly with eager ears to hear about your condition.
"She's fine, nothing but a cut on her arm. She just passed out from exhaustion so she should be waking up so-" He was quickly cut off as the fortisemo of Ikebukuro stormed past him and went to office, his heart beating vigerously against his rib cage as he made his way closer to you.
Inside the office you sat upright on the table, a bandage wrapped around your arm to help your cut. Your ran a hand through your (h/l) (h/c) and sighed quietly, going back to your world of thoughts, however, the sound of the door to the office slamming open snapped you out of it before you could go too deep into your imagination. IN the door way stood a relieved Shizuo, his eyes wide and filled with joy at the ight of your (e/c) open and looking to him in confusion.
"Shizuo-kun? What are you-" you couldnt finish your sentence as Shizuo came over to you, wrapping his strong arms around you with surprising gentlness, resting your head agaisnt his bandaged chest, right about his heart that was still beating at hundred miles per hour.
"Dont you ever scare me like that again...I dont want you to get hurt because of me..."
" But, I just wanted to do you a favor...after all the times you had saved me..." It was true. Many times in the past Shizuo was always there to be your knight in shining armor to protect you against rapist and gang members that would want to hurt you in as many ways possible. Some of the times, the raven haired flea was behind tha attacks, which caused your blonde haired friend to become even more enraged. But just sitting here, in his arms and safe from teh world made you happy, and feel like it was only you that Shizuo was this kind and gentle to. As well as his brother, thats a totally different kind of gentleness. This one...This one is of love...and you could feel it through him even though he had nothing. You jsut knew that Shizuo loved you in some way...
"I know that but...I promised to you that I'd protet you no matter what, and I plan on keeping that promise, no matter what...so dont be reckless and do that again, you ehar me?..." You giggle quietly and nuzzle into his chest, giving a quick nod of understand.
"I know, I love you...My Brute~..."
"...I love you too...My little Idiot~"
So I know its been a long tie since I've updated this so here is Shizu-chans Love~ Lemon will be up...whenever?
