Sorry for such a long wait. As soon as the new year rolled around, my computer broke.

How is one suppose to update with no computer access what-so-ever? This year is defiantly not going to be the best, how sad~

Sankyuu for waiting and sticking with me though, I appreciate it greatly~

Kiitos~

At worst, I feel bad for a while,

but then I just smile

I go ahead and smile.

After slipping the chocolate lax into Hidekis' drink (though you had to pretend that you were drinking some of his so that people wouldn't suspect anything) you sat quietly in your spot, looking like an angel.

The character you were suppose to be playing at the moment.

You were actually pretty impressed by how good you were keeping up this facade.

You weren't a very good actor but he didn't even notice that your could care less about how bad his life was spiraling down!

Truely impressive~

Then again..he was an idiot.

Your phone buzzed quietly in your pocket and with nimble fingers you slide it out and check the text that you had just recieved.

Of course it would be from your partner in crime, Izaya Orihara.

{Did you do it?}

{Duh.}

{Haha! That's the spirit!}

You wondered if this was a hobby for him, if you did this every day.

You seriously woudn't doubt it.

It took approximately seven minutes for Hideki to return from the bathroom and resume his original position in the chair across from you. Most would wonder why he took that long, but you had noticed that his eyes were a bit red as he fixed his shirt as much as he could in his sitting position.

'Probably from balling his eyes out, whimp.'

You thought with a mental roll of your eyes.

Why had you put up with this guy for as long as you had? It made no sense when you thought about it clearly.

"So, um, where were we?"

He rubbed his eyes to stop any more signs that showed his weakened form and looked at you with as much confidence as he could muster, thought it wasn't much in your opinion because his bottom lip quivers for a second before he bit it..

"Your job, you still have that right?"

The mild interest in your voice was too obvious, but he didn't seem to notice how you didn't even seem to care about it.

Instead, he was focused on his shirt.

"Yeah...but..."

You paused running your index finger around the rim of the glass and blinked slightly. For a second, the image right there bold in front of you with him desperately trying to compose himself before anyone really noticed pulled something in your chest.

A small heart string that still had his name barely attached to it.

Was it really right to be doing this?

Ruining someones life and image for your own desires and entertainment, seeing him in a deperate state so that he would cry you a river big enough for you to admire your hard work.

All of it seemed a bit selfish.

"Miku...She keeps...uh."

He looked away slightly, embarrassed by something.

But, it was fair in your mind.

Why should you be the only the one who feels the impact of the break up when it was all his fault in the first place?

He should have never cheated on you in the first place!

And seriously, how long was it that he has been seeing that girl?

You wanted satisfaction of knowing that he was going through the same pain of breaking up with someone like you were, and it annoyed you that he looked so unfazed when you laid eyes on him as soon as you walked into the small cafe.

"She keeps milking me dry!"

You shouldn't call your ex after a day or two wanted to meet up with them to talk about your problems then flirt with with the waitress!

Who the hell did this guy think he was!

Your grip on your cup tightened slightly, trying to focus on something else so that you wouldn't be angry.

"Does she?"

"Yeah. Everytime I get a paycheck, she wants me to take her somewhere. I don't know how much I can take from her..."

Izaya's offer.

That was why you sat at the table across from him right at this moment. Otherwise, you would have never dreamed of doing something as cruel as this plot.

He was the master mind, and you were just he lackey following his every order, wanted to feel satisfied with what you were doing.

You tore your gaze from him to the steaming cup of cocoa in your hand, feeling a weight of shame on your shoulders suddenly.

You felt as though there was a lump in your throat, stopping you from swallowing down the cocoa properly.

"Im sorry..You must be going through a lot of stress."

Hideki nodded solemnly, his eyes downcasted as he thought. HIs shoulders slumped very slighlty and he scratched his head as a small silence took over the air around the two of you.

'I shouldn't be doing this.'

It wasn't right. Your conscience was telling you that this was all wrong, that this wasn't how you were suppose to solve your problms.

Your fingers moved over to your pocket, slowly slinking in to grab it without being noticed by him or anyone around that mihgt be watching.

'I'll just text Izaya telling him that I don't want to do this anymore.'

He shrugged as he looked up, the almost sad look in his eyes gone as he grinned at you.

"Naw, it's fine."

A small smile made it's way onto your face as when you noticed that he was starting to cheer up, you didn't want to see him so down hearted.

It made you feel like a real jerk.

"She kind of makes up for it with the sex."

And just like that, the smile on your face crumbled up and was thrown to the floor like a piece of notebook paper. Your phone was shoved into your pocket and now, on your lips were forced up into a sneering smile.

That he didn't take note of.

"Is that so..."

Letting out a forced laugh, you lifted up your cup and chuckled.

"Well then, I hope that you love everything that comes to you~"

Of course, he thought that you meant that in the kindest way possible, because that was just how you were.

Yup, no sarcasm at all leaking from there.

...

The things that you were going to do to him.

..The pain he was going to feel...

OH!

You couldn't wait to see what Izaya had in mind!

He continued to grin as he lifted his cup up in your direction.

Then gulped it down swiftly.

"Hey...This is pretty chocolatey."
