I would like to apologize for being so late. I was in the middle of moving to a new house and I overlooked the fact that internet would have to be turned off and then turned on again. The internet is still off but a kind friend gave me his password and is letting me jump off his. So thanks R and let's get on with the story. But just a heads up if I ever don't update it's not because I'm lazy, I promise I will update when I say I will and the only thing stopping me will be a bad connection or my laptop crashed.

Story Starts Here:

Its been a few weeks since the entire thing started, nearly a month but it didn't feel nearly that long to Shizuo. So far the last month has been filled to the brim with hot and steamy sex. He was getting laid almost every day and the days he didn't see Izaya were hardly noticed because the next day would make up for it.

Things were going great for Shizuo all in all. Even when Izaya came to Ikebukuro he didn't get so angered anymore just horny, causing a lot of their chases to end in a very different way than the past eight years.

At the moment Shizuo was walking into Izayas building and heading over to the silver elevator. Nodding his head to the woman behind the counter, he had been seeing her quite often and they had talked once or twice. Nothing serious but he had a feeling she knew what was going on between Izaya and him. She was middle aged with brownish hair and what looked like a messy bun on top of her head.

Today however, she didn't give him a smile only a worried glance and she looked like she wanted to say something. But instead she looked away and he continued on his way.

Tapping his foot impatiently, he got a strange feeling as the doors slide open.

"If you would have kept your mouth shut things would have stayed the same and we wouldn't be having this discussion!" Shizuo looked to the only door on the floor. It was open completely with an angry looking flea walking out of it.

Izaya had stayed calmed when Shiki appeared in front of his door, offering tea and a snack. They discussed work and the like. When he felt it was time for the other to leave he was cut short.

"Well I have work to do and as I'm sure you do as w-"

"Are you going to tell me who this new guy is?" His tone sound too guarded and monotone, almost as if he were bored but antsy at the same time.

"What do you mean?" Izaya knew it was no use beating around the bush with Shiki but he had nothing better to do. Crossing his legs and leaning back into the couch he waited for Shiki's response.

"Don't play games Orihara." So they were back to last names hmm.

"But playing games is what I live for." Taking a long and drawled out look at the clock, he wanted this to be over. It was quiet for a few seconds. "Oh fine if you must know its Shizu-chan."

Shiki looked shocked for a moment before he looked actually upset. In all his years of dealing with Shiki he'd never seen the man show any other emotion than lust or boredom.

"And how did you manage that?"

"Stiff shoulders, clenched jaw, twitching fingers. Something wrong?" Izaya didn't feel like explaining how Shinra had set them up.

"You know what's wrong." Shiki seemed to forcefully calm down.

"Oh do I? If I recall you're the one who ruined everything." Izaya said this with a hint of malice in his voice. His right thumb slowly stroked his ring, moving it in a circle- a nervous tick he only did when he was starting to lose control.

He knew he was getting upset by Shiki's presence, and the fact that Shizuo wasn't able to come yesterday meant he was feeling a little cold and his mind kept comparing Shiki and Shizuo.

So far Shizuo was better, much better.

"Just because I told you I loved you?" Izaya immediately tensed and seemed to push himself into the couch to get away from the man across from him.

"Just? Just! That wasn't a just situation. Telling someone you love them is a bit of a big leap for sex buddies don't you think?" Izaya bit out, he needed to leave.

"We've been doing this for nearly five years. " Shiki sounded serious as he stood and walked to the front door to grab his coat. "I don't think it was all just sex on your side."

"Well it was so deal with it." Yes he was being a brat, but Shiki was almost gone. But he was wrong in the next moment his head was tilted back and he had a very familiar organ shoved down his throat. Pulsing against his own, he could barely stop the urge to give in to the toe curling kiss. A hand was on his stomach in the next second slowly moving around his bellybutton. He arched into it- his stomach was a very sensitive spot.

Fuck he needed to stop."Sh-shiki!" His mouth was released in favor for his ear. Nipping harshly just like he liked. Izaya couldn't take it after that.

Pulling away from Shiki, he quickly stood up and backed away, looking pissed and turned on at the same time.

"You knew my standing point from the very beginning, not to mention my issue with relationships." He moved over to the door slipping his own coat on along with his shoes. " If you want someone to tell you how much they love you and need you you're looking at the wrong person. I love humans. The doors lock automatically I trust you can see your way out."

Under any other circumstance he would have made Shiki leave but he knew the other wouldn't.

"Izaya if you honestly don't have feelings for me why are you so red?" He knew if he turned around Shiki would be smirking, that bastard thought he won. "Come on, I'll take it back and things can just go back to normal."

Shiki almost sounded comforting but Izaya knew better. "You made your choice, stick with it. I rejected you and that's the end of it."

"So you're just going to forget about us?" Izaya lost it. Spinning around and pushing almost all his self-control out the window.

"There is and never will be an 'us'! If you would have kept your mouth shut things would have stayed the same and we wouldn't be having this discussion!" The door was open and he was ready to leave but turning down the hall he made eye contact with Shizuo.

"Uhh…Is this a bad time?" Izaya almost chuckled at the obliviousness of the other.

"No I was just leaving." He said the last part loud enough for Shiki to hear him. He grabbed Shizuos hand on impulse and started dragging him to the elevator.

"Are you trying to hide him from me now?" Shiki was right behind them although he seemed to be walking calmly were as Izaya was almost stomping.

"No I just don't wish to be in your presence anymore." The doors opened and he quickly pulled Shizuo in and attempted to shut the doors but off course Shiki still managed to slip through.

Shizuo took notice of Izayas irritated state and glanced to the Shiki guy. The name sound familiar. He was wearing a white suit, looked expensive. He looked him up and down before stopping on the tie.

"You're that guy!" This was the man Izaya had been with, he would recognize that tie anywhere. As he looked between the two he got an odd feeling of jealousy. What was he doing in Izayas house and how long had he been there? "You should leave the flea alone; if he doesn't want to be bothered than go away." Blunt was always the he did it.

The doors opened and Izaya decided to act on impulse for once. "Let's go on a date Shizu-chan. A romantic one." Shizuo didn't have time to react because Izaya had pulled him out the elevator and the building as soon as he had said it.

I really didn't want to write a scene with Shiki because I have so much love and respect for his character I didn't want to mess it up, which I totally did.

Next chapter will be about their date, and feelings will hopefully start.
