Izaya's POV

"ugh... My head..." I mumbled as I tried to sit up and was able to do so since the pain in my head minimize but it's still there, I scanned the room and found that I was still in my apartment, my door suddenly opened and there stood ikebukuro's strongest man, Heiwajima Shizuo, I tried standing to prepare myself incase the door comes in contact with my face but found it much harder to do than sit up, "easy flea I won't attack you" he said as he made his way towards my bed and sat down beside me while bringing his hand up to feel my forehead, "your fever's gone down..." He said and I finally had the chance to ask him... "may I ask what you're doing here shizu-chan?" He then looked at me as if I'm crazy or something before shaking his head with a little sigh, "you don't remember me coming here last night?" Last night? Why was he here last night? "Shizu-chan I have no recollection of what happened last night hence why I asked you the question of what you're doing here in my humble home ne? And if you still don't understand what I, saying then let me make it simple for you since you're such a protozoan" I inhaled deeply before speaking at slow pace while making gestures with my hand, "You. What. Doing. Here?" He then glares at me and then stood up "if you can talk like that I take it you're feeling better, come on down stairs I made breakfast"

I chuckled and tried doing just that when the dizziness that consumed my head prevent me from doing so, "having a hard time?" Shizu-chan said as he lifted me up bridal-style which I awarded him with a glare, "put me down you brute" he shakes his head "no can do flea how can you expect yourself to walk if you can't even stand up?" He's got a point though I would never admit that. The smell of something good reached my nose as soon as we went to the kitchen and shizu-chan finally put me down on one of the chairs before allowing himself to sit, "I made extra for me hope you don't mind" he mumbled and I said a small 'thanks for the food' and began eating in silence.

Shizu-chan finished his food first and placed in the sink before heading back to his seat and and doing nothing, after finishing my meal I looked up to see shizu-chan staring at me with a smile on his face and that brought heat up to my face, I faked a coughed to indicate that I'm finished which snapped the brute back into reality, "o-oh you're done?" I rolled my eyes at his question "thank you for asking that captain obvious~" he glared at me for awhile before getting up and brought my plate to sink before washing it along with his.

"y-you know that you don't have to do that..." I said as tried to go where shizu-chan and do the dishes instead, even though I don't know why shizu-chan is here I don't like to let him do the dishes since he went through the trouble of preparing breakfast for me, as soon as I tried to reach for the plates to wash them I was stopped by shizu-chan with him grabbing my wrist and gave me a questioning look, "what are you doing?" He said as he washed off the soap from his hands (and my wrist) before drying them, "you already made breakfast so it's only right that I wash the dishes" I said and tried to grab the dishes again but was stopped again when shizu-chan pulled my wrist and carried me bridal-style to the couch and then putting me down gently which I didn't know that the brute was capable of doing.

"You're still sick so just stay there and get better" he said before going back to the kitchen to resume his actions earlier, I blinked at his statement but decided to do as he said as I reached for the remote and turned on the T.V. and sat comfortably on the couch while flipping through the channels.

After 15 minutes of channel flipping and adjusting to get comfortable I finally was able to find one show the piqued my interest and a position that made me relax. Sooner or later shizu-chan entered again while holding a glass of water and sat beside me, handing me the glass of water and a pill "drink up shinra said you need to drink your medicine" I stared at the pill then to shizu-chan and then to the pill before putting it into my mouth and swallowed it together with the water, shizu-chan took the now empty glass and placed it on the coffee table in front of us, then he sat down comfortably on the couch with me.

"you still haven't answered my question shizu-chan" I said as I tried to scoot away from the blond that was sitting way too close for my comfort while he sent me a look as if silently asking me to clarify my question, "I mean what are you doing here and why are you taking care of me all of a sudden?" He stares at me for awhile and I felt myself become even more uncomfortable "Shinra told me you were sick and needed someone to look after you so I agreed having to see you fall out of your bed last night while reaching for a glass of water so I accepted his request so yeah that's pretty much the whole story" he said as he continued to watch the show I was watching awhile ago before shizu-chan decided to join me until the lightest tint of pink became visible on his face and he looked away, I merely shrugged and just continued watching.

"So why where you sick all of a sudden?" he asked as I looked at him to find him staring at me "I don't know I was completely fine until I was attacked by a headache and when I tried to drink some water from the kitchen the pain became unbearable and just like that I blacked out" I said while sighing, 'shizu-chan will be taking care of me so that means he'll be staying here for awhile until shinra comes with the results of what my sickness might be so perhaps I should tell shizu-chan the truth...which I already did' He looked at me with wide eyes, shock evident on his face, "wait so everything was fine till you got that headache?" He said and at his question I felt myself roll my eyes "I knew a protozoan like you wouldn't be able to grasp information as simple as that" from the corner of my eye I saw shizu-chan's eyebrow twitch ever so slightly and that his hands converted into fists, but then he took a deep breath before exhaling and as he did so his anger was lessened and he merely looked at me with a glare.

"you know what flea? You should be thankful that I even bothered wasting my time taking care of a bastard like you" I flinched at those words but only slightly, hoping that shizu-chan didn't see it, "I never asked you to do that" I said in annoyance as I stood up succesfully before heading towards the stairs and up to my room, slamming the door rather loudly than I intended to, sighing I sat on the edge of the bed.

"stupid protozoan..."


Shizuo's POV

'Great now he's mad...' I thought as I heard him slam the door loudly, 'maybe I was a bit harsh' I sighed in frustration as I rubbed my temples before going to the kitchen and allowed myself a glass of water.

I then heard another glass break from izaya's bedroom and I automatically set down the glass before running upstairs, by the time I reached izaya's bedroom I saw the flea on the floor with another broken glass laying next to him as one of his hands covered his mouth "izaya! What the hell happened?!" concern was tone my voice held as I ran to the man's side, ignoring the small cut on my knee as I kneeled beside the smaller man, said man began gripping my shirt tightly before saying something "b-bathr-room" he said as I immediately helped him up and we made our away towards the bathroom.

the moment that we stepped in izaya went directly to the toilet and began puking out the breakfast he had earlier, I admit that it somewhat worried me to see izaya like this, and all I was doing is just sitting there beside him, rubbing circles on the man's back while he's still panting and recovering from the dizziness he must be feeling. I then picked him up from the floor bridal-style and placed him on the bad before heading down to get him a glass of water.

after persuading izaya to sleep and not to worry over the glass since I'll clean it up he finally drifted off to dreamland, though his face sometimes contorted in pain clearly showing that he is in distress. After throwing out the glass I sat by the flea's side, he was whimpering and sweating slightly, grabbing the towel on the nightstand I proceeded to wipe the sweat of his body and face, little by little his face became more peaceful and I found myself stroking his hair away from his face.

I layed down on the confortable mattress beneath me as I slowly felt myself become exhausted as well, 'to think that we just woke up... ah who the hell gives a shit, I'll sleep when I want too' I huffed as I draped my arm over izaya's waist lazily and snuggled closer to him subcionsiously, and sooner or later I too, fell asleep... Again.
