Izaya's POV
"Long time no see, Shizu-chan," I purr out into the night, the blonde monster cladded in tight black and white let's at a snarl and I can make out the outlines of his fists clenching and the cigarette giving a slight bend from the tight line of his lips. I can't stop the laugh bubbling from my lips, though I wished it sounded crueler instead of the stoned minded giggle that fell out- making me giggle again at it. Okay, maybe not a good choice coming here high~ should have told him no to those last few hits before leaving...
"Izaya-kun. I thought I made it very clear not to come back to Ikebukruo, you slimy little pest!?" There it is, there's my monster that I remembered~. He growls out at me like a pissed off puppy, taking a deep sigh and pulling from his cigarette like it'll cure him of the rage that I bring out of him, flattered I am, really.
"Aw come on, I'm not doing anything wrong. Just taking a little stroll, maybe bump into my favorite Monster~~," I grin widely as he lunges for me and grabbing at the bottom of my throat right above my collar bones. Oh how considerate, he always grabs where he knows he won't damage but still able to make a point. Silly beastie~. "Oh lookie, I found him~"
It's nice to know that my taunting still pushes all those buttons, but that's not why I'm here- get it together, Izaya!
"Oh look, I caught me a flea ~ maybe I should squash him!" He mocks and tightens his hold, though still not worried that I'm in danger and I start to giggle again, stopping with a smirk wide across my face and my hands gripping at his around my neck and pushing it up more to my throat.
"If you're going to do it, do it right, monster-chan~" oh fuck, what the hell am I doing. His fingertips dig into the sides of my soft flesh but his hold stays the same lax and pushing until my back is against the building wall and I grimace at the thought of what disgusting-ness could be getting on my clothes.
He leans in close, a growl heating my neck and ear making me shiver and he is sticking his noses to the crease of my neck and sniffing- what a mutt~
"Fuck, flea you stink. You smell like you had an orgy with a skunk... wait, is this glitter? What the hell..." he plucks a piece of glitter off of my collar bones and I can't stop it, I'm full on stoner giggling and I'm trying so hard to not, covering my mouth with my hand .
"Hehe. You caught me red handed. Orgy with a glitter skunk. Fun times you should try it someday~~" I laugh again and boldly lick up the side of his face , making him jump back from me and furiously wiping his face with disgust and scowling at me.
"What the fuck Izaya!? Are you fucking high or something? Fucking gross ass little maggot!"
"As a mother. Fucking. Kite." Damnit, I'm going to die if I keep on giggling like this. "I feel fantastic, my dear beast. Blissedly fucked and mellow, wait- is blissedly a word- oh who cares. No one can rain on my parade right now, not even you and your army of vending machines," I purr and poke him in the chest- high me just isn't caring too much right now- though I could diffentally go for a second round, I wonder if Ran is still up...Fuck! High self, stop getting off topic!
"Since when did you do drugs? And I don't want to hear about you being a whore! Argh."
"Hey! That's not very nice, beasties weestie~," I shrug, he doesn't need to know how right he is though. "Oh yes... I came here cause I needed to talk to you my dear monster. Shall we go somewhere to talk~"
"Talk about what, louse? And I'm not your dear. What's up with you!"
"It's important! I promise! Look, I know I'm the last person you want to see-"
"That's an understatement."
"-but, hehe, sorry, I know I tease alot but I'm really here to be helpful for once. So. Ple-plleeaa- fuck. Please, Shizuo." Oh how that word tastes so bitter.
I can make out his eyebrows kneading together in the dark, before he let's out an over dramatic sigh- finishing the last bit of his cigarette and tossing it to the ground.
"Fine. My apartment is a few blocks down- if you dare try to make a fool out of me, I'll kill you!"
"You do that well enough without my help," I mumble, skipping after him- taking a chance to admire his very fine monster behind when he turns the corner- oh, when did I become such a pervert...
Finally after a few moments, the trip silent aside from my occasional giggle and his low key growl if I got too close- we arrive to his apartment building- which doesn't look any better than mine and we make our way up some side steps to the second floor and three doors down.
He fumbles with the keys for a second, opening the door roughly. Shoes are kicked off lazily by the door, mine joining his but neatly lining the wall.
"Sit while I change. And don't touch anything!" He roars out and stomps through the small living room and into his bedroom, door slamming shut.
I ignore him, shrugging off my jacket to drape on the back of a small couch, exploring the small space- which is surpisingly cleaner than I thought it would been. Few dishes in the sink and books and papers sitting on the counter-browsing through them, lightly running my fingertips over the hard bindings and flipping them over noticing some are actually college coursed books. So he's thinking of going to college? Good for you little monster~
Abandoning the text books, I card through the stack of papers- some practice sheets for the books, an application for the community college, and lastly, the last two were rather well done sketches: one of a landscape of the wateredge that looks close to the park in downtown Ikebukruo and the other of a small child petting a puppy surrounded by a flower garden.
Well tickle me impressed, if Shizu-chan did these. I didn't know he had any talents other than skillful property demolition.
Distracted, I didn't even realise he returned until I heard the growl behind my ear and heat on my shoulder blades from his chest as he rips the papers from my hand. "I thought I said not to touch anything you inconsiderate maggot!?"
"Yeah, and since when do I actually listen to you?" I smirk up at him as I turn around, pulling the drawings out of his hands before they get crumbled and laying them back on the table. "Nya, Shizu-chan. Is this all your stuff?"
"Maybe, what's it to you?" He mumbles, scooping up the books and papers to put away and putting it in a basket on the floor- and there I am again, gawking as he bends over and the sweats he just put on are tightly spread across his ass.
I quickly turn away, feeling my face start to heat up. When did Shizu-chan get to be so attractive~ I diffently wouldn't mind a taste of that forbidden fruit~
"Ah. Well, I never knew you could draw, if they are indeed yours. They are quite good, for a novice," I keep looking away as I talk, staring at random objects to keep from looking at him, knowing full fell that he is now training his gaze on me and if I have to meet those honey drops right now, I might do something I regret. Or not regret~
"So, Shizu-chan is thinking of going to college? Never thought I'd see the day." I hum, picking up random picture frames sitting on a small side table next to his couch- mostly of him and his brother when they were younger.
I can feel his eyes narrowing at the back of my head and I ignore it, humming as I pick up a picture of the whole Heiwjamia family at a picnic, he couldn't be any older that 8 or 9 in it. A soft smile forms on my lips and my voice is low and mellow, "I think you should do it."
"Really? Why is that?"
"Hmm. I think it would be good for you, make something of yourself. You don't want to be a bartending monster all your life, do you?"
He shorts and shuffles to sit on the couch and I lean behind it stand with my elbows on the head of the cushion. "Yeah, aren't you suppose to still be in school, for like another few years. Why are you here instead?"
I freeze for a few seconds with a short lived scowl on my face before I can mask it, just giving a smirk down to the blonde monster.
"Eh, I dont think it's any of your business Shizu-chan. Just say things happen and I have a slight career change at the moment." Sighing and crossing my legs at the ankles, feeling my high start to come down some. "I think you would do well at college, given the right guidance and support, of course~. Wouldn't want innocent little Shizu-chan handing out favors just to pass assessments~"
He scoffed, "Is that what you did, flea? Spread your legs to pass your classes? Must not have been that great if you're here instead of there," he chuckles darkly and my fist tighten in fists and it's taking me everything not to hit him.
"Fuck you asshole. I may have done things I'm not proud of, but I do what I have to, to survive- not everyone has a successful little brother that they can leech from whenever needed. You know nothing about me, Monster. You never have and never will, not that you even thought of trying to know me before declaring war upon me. You must have been so disappointed when I stepped up to you instead of becoming your punching bag. Well, deal with it. I am no ones punching bag, I am no ones anything and, fuck you. I try to be nice to you and give you some encouragement to be treated like this." I'm pissed and babbling and ranting, pushing up off the back of the couch and roughing grabbing my jacket that his head is leaning against. "Don't think you are so much better than I am that you can judge me for anything. I put myself out their and came all this way to make sure you don't get your stupid self killed because you're an idiot at the wrong place, right time. I should just let the Yakuza finish you off and then we will be short one monster."
He grabs at my wrist as I am heading for my shoes and whipping me around, I'm scowling at him with a deep frown. How dare this monster insult me!
"Stop, okay, I didn't mean to upset you... that much. Now tell me what the he'll your talking about?" His growl rumbling in his chest and I can feel the vibrations through his palm and fingertips tightening around my wrist. I glare at him hard before relaxing and putting my hands up in defeat and he let's go my my wrist and I walk and plop on his couch and stretch out so he can't sit down. Because I can~
"Well, Shizu-chan. I'm sure you're aware that some people find you to be a thron in their side. Well I came here to let you know that the Yakuza are planning a hit on you, if you don't leave that job soon you're going to end up dying. Someone else is planning the same, but Shizu-chan. Yakuza don't play around, they deal in guns and other illegal activities. I'd hate to have to hear about it online when and if they kill you off. I would say be careful, but we know that's not a chance." I sigh again, relaxing against the smoke scented cushions and letting my hips go lax with a leg dangling off the couch and hands tucked behind my head. Shizu-chan is looking down at me behind the shag of hair, surprisingly calm for the beast. He actually looks quite nice when his face isn't all scrunched up in anger.
"Oh, I know some fancy dressed punks come into the bar all the time and I have to bounce them out from time to time, more times recently though...," he trails off. "Why are they even there in the first place? It's not that kind of bar."
"Drugs, Shizu-chan. Drugs. You are in the middle of a drug den. The bar is just one of many cover ups for them though. A partner if theirs decided to sell harder drugs behind their backs in Yakuza truff and now they are on the look out, the bar being althe main focus at the time and it must look bad having you rough up their guys everynight. You need to get out of there before they come down on you."
"Ha, I'd like to see them try."
"Stupid beast. Even with your strength and dense head, you can even die from a shot to the head or heart. You are human still after all," I quietly mumble the last part, but I don't miss the slight pull of his lips upwards.
"You know flea. You're not so bad these days. Thank you for coming out of your way, by the way," the way his smile crooks to one side and the softness in his bright honey colored eyes makes my chest flutter and my abdomen pool with heat and I find the urge to want to taste those lips- which I don't act on if course, I'm not that stupid.
"Ah yes, well. As thanks I usually accept cash for, but for you my dearest beast, I will accept your couch for the night seeing as it is nearing five in the morning," I yawn out and stretch, he laughing out an acceptance and tossing me a pillow and small blanket. "Thanks. Good night beast. Nya, Shizu-chan?"
"Yeah, flea?"
I give him a genuine smile that I feel reaches my eyes. "I missed you, Monster~" I close my eyes and snuggle into the pillow.
"Yeah? Good night, flea." He whispers and I heard the descend of his feet to his bedroom and the door open and close softly and I relax and fall into a quite peaceful rest.
