It was already late. Still, the group managed to arrive home before the sun went down. Shinra kept talking about some wonderful outfits he was going to wear in his future wedding, ignoring every comment against it. Celty sighed, really embarrassed about everything. On the other hand, Izaya and Shizuo were sitting quietly, without complaining. They were probably struggling with some ideas to make the oblivious doctor realize their now romantic relationship. Maybe that was why they didn't listen to Shinra's rambling.
"Shizuo…Izaya…you have been acting really strange for some days…" The doctor suddenly commented, changing the topic of his conversation –rather a monologue. He smiled when he noticed that the duo wasn't responding to any of his questions. Neither was Celty. That last thing made him feel ignored, but he just shrugged it off and continued talking, as if he didn't mention anything regarding the two men.
"Um…do you want to do something now?" Izaya suddenly said, snapping back to reality. Sadly for him, he didn't come up with anything really amusing or interesting, so he hoped the blonde had a better idea.
'But Shizu-chan never gets good ideas…there isn't much to expect now.'
Shizuo shook his head and negated to the 'flea's' question. Throwing his hands up in the air and standing up from the couch, he left the other three alone in the living room while he went to the guest room. "I'll be back in a while". He informed.
"Geez…Shizu-chan isn't being nice." Izaya pouted.
'That's it!' His head suddenly shouted. 'I'm acting nice to him. No…well, I'm not acting nice, but maybe…if I…' He had the perfect plan, but he had to wait until everyone was present.
He loudly left the room and went to the one that had the Wii and the TV. Izaya hoped that everyone would notice him, but instead he only got silence as a response. Very hurt, he left Celty and Shinra alone, making a dramatic pose before disappearing through the door. Shinra just continued talking about uninteresting things.
Izaya found himself alone in the second living room. He sighed and waited for someone to appear, but after a while he just accepted the fact that everyone was really busy. Unlike him. And since that room was not fit to observe humans, he just sat on the couch and started to stare around him.
Izaya didn't know how many times he had been in that same room for the past eight years. He sure remembered his first encounter with Shizuo after school. When he just broke the door and entered the room while he was drinking tea with Shinra. He started to laugh. How much he missed those days.
"Looks like my feelings were all mistaken. Maybe I'm not that amazing at all." He whispered out loud.
Realizing that he was staring at nothing in particular, he quickly smiled and stood up taking the game he bought the day before out of his bag. Opening its case he carefully inserted the CD into the slot. But after taking a better look at it he made up his mind. He didn't feel like playing a game like that all alone. If he wanted his plan to function, Shinra had to be there to witness it, he told himself.
Izaya sighed and went to the guest room, passing next to Shinra and Celty, the last one being a bit fed up about the doctor's endless talking. He could predict that it would end up in a punch really soon, but he shrugged the idea off and continued walking until having the said door in front of him.
Lots of inappropriate thoughts passed through the raven-haired informant's head while he brushed his hand against the door's knob. Smirking he turned it around, opening quietly the door, only to find the blonde sitting on his bed reading some magazine with a pen in his right hand.
"You just disappointed me, Shizu-chan."
The ex-bartender lifted his gaze with an intriguing look. Upon seeing Izaya's smirking face, and his expression he blushed.
"Pervert." He just hissed, and continued reading.
"Ne, it's not my fault. Besides, you don't know what I was referring to, protozoan. And another thing…I'm bored and I want to continue with the plan!" He smiled.
"You've grown to like the plan, huh?" He continued. "Rotate…with seven letters?" He asked.
The smaller young man realized that his boyfriend wasn't paying attention to what he was saying. He was filling a crossword. Sighing he proceeded to answer the question.
"Revolve."
"Thanks…" The blonde thanked while scribbling something into the paper.
"Well?" Izaya inquired.
"Well what?"
'Damn it, he's so clueless sometimes…'
"Well? Are you going to help me with my plan?" He almost shouted it.
"What are you planning to do, Izaya? I hope it does not involve something that I'll regret later." Shizuo lectured him. Then he stood up, tossed the magazine away and embraced his now-anxious boyfriend, proceeding then to share a kiss with him.
"Bleh…you just have to play along. It won't be anything strange. Promise. Well, not too strange."
"Fine, louse."
"I knew you would agree." Izaya affirmed. Then, holding his hand, he lead Shizuo to the living room where the TV was. Shinra saw it and immediately stopped talking to Celty. Izaya ignored it and continued walking to the room, sitting on the couch.
"Ahm…Celty?" Shinra exclaimed.
The dullahan just ignored him and went to the living room, sitting besides the duo, now sitting on the floor. Shinra had no other option that coming along and sitting next to Celty.
Shizuo sat quietly, not knowing what the other one would have planned. Izaya just smirked along the way. He clicked on the game panel on the Wii.
"Playing again?" Shinra questioned. But with a kick from Celty, he knew it was better if he didn't say anything.
The introduction of the game was rather strange for everyone. After a sequence of creepy scenes the game started. Izaya held the remote tightly. Shizuo just looked around, since it did not feature the multiplayer option. Shinra decided to turn off the lights and close the windows, the only light source being the dim light that the television offered.
A creepy house was introduced, and a sort of bloody scene happened. But neither of them was actually aware of what had happened until the screen turned black, and only a word was shown.
"Erika." Izaya read.
"Don't tell me now that this is an otaku game…" Shizuo sighed.
A dog appeared on the screen. Then, it made its way into a dark house, following a pale and bare pair of legs. Shizuo noticed Izaya's grip on the remote was only intensifying.
'He deals with more dangerous things…I'll never understand why he's afraid of those games.'
"Ivy! I'll go look for her." The TV showed.
"Huh…what's this?" Izaya demanded to know, when he saw that turning the remote made the lantern move. The flashlight illuminated a small portion of area, while the rest was left pitch-black. "What? It's…dark." He said.
Then he moved closer to Shizuo. The air was filled with tension. He didn't know what he was going to do. Izaya just moved the character, while trying to keep everything illuminated. Suddenly, he saw a spark on the floor and he picked it up.
"Spare battery." Shinra read, still examining the duo's reactions and behaviour.
"W-What? Does it mean the battery may be…consumed? Does it mean that this lantern will run off of battery. And then I'm left alone at this place? Without light?" Izaya stuttered, but he tried to keep his grin on his face.
He then picked up a key to an old factory. And even if he hid it very well, Shizuo could notice Izaya's eagerness to get past it. When opening the door, a small, pitch-black-eyed infant with pale skin cried. Izaya shouted, jumping back. His heart was racing.
"Damn that child!" Izaya shouted. He then opened the door again, but this time there was nothing. Until he heard someone knocking loudly at the door. That time, Izaya really lost it. He let the remotes fall of his hand and fell to Shizuo's arms. Hugging him, Shizuo kissed his forehead, forgetting that Shinra was right behind him.
"W-What?" Shinra exclaimed. At that moment, everything cleared up for him.
"For…those eight years…I think…" He started to mumble. "I think I understand now. All the things that you have done those days ago…you…you are going out right?"
Izaya looked straight at Shinra. He did not know what to say, since he didn't know what his friend's reaction would be.
"I…we…yes." Shizuo bluntly responded.
For a long moment there was an awkward silence in the air. Shizuo was still holding Izaya's body between his arms, Celty was trying to figure out her lover's reaction and Shinra just had a poker face as expression.
"That means…We can go now to double dates without having problems!" Shinra shouted.
Everyone just face palmed.
"Forget it, it was a joke. But I am pretty happy that this event has achieved your reconciliation. Who knew that you would end up together?" Shinra joked. "What do you plan to do now?"
"Continue together, of course! Maybe go on many dates, right, Shizu-chan?"
Everyone laughed along, and that evening ended up with Shizuo unexpectedly kissing Izaya's lips and going away with him, after thanking Celty and Shinra for what they had done.
Author's note: Okay! So there will be another, last chapter. Shinra finally noticed, it seems. I am very happy. This is the first story I finish. xDD So, about the name. I didn't mention it there, because I forgot, and now I'm too lazy to edit it. The game is called Ju-On: The Grudge. I didn't talk about it too much, because the things that happen there are mainly spoilers, and I don't want to spoil anyone about the scary things that happen. xD Okay, hope you liked it.
