-๑-๑ ஜ ๑-Chapter 21: Childish flea -๑ ஜ ๑-๑-
-Shizuo´s point of view.-
"How are you feeling?" Turning his head to face the not exactly unwelcomed but unexpected guest Izaya looked at Shizu-chan who had entered his room again with something that looked like a plastic bag.
Okay, so he had received the message earlier that he was going to return with medicine, but honestly Izaya had doubted Shizu-chan would actually be doing it.
After all they weren't nowhere near close enough to show that kind of level of care.
"Same old same old," he shrugged with a sigh as he rose from his pillow.
Despite his unwillingness and stubbornness he had done as the blond had said after all, rested in bed that is. Red patterns were drawn all across his cheeks, he could feel them warm and uneven as he brushed across them with his fingertips. Did he actually fall asleep?
Glancing at a clock dangling from the wall to his right he figured he had as a few hours had passed and it was already evening.
Well he guessed this show that was presenting itself in front of him was Shizu-chan trying to be fair to everyone. He wasn't the type to kick someone who was already down, as for their appointment…. thinking about it now he could have figured as much.
Having walked up to the raven Shizu-chan was putting the contents of the bag on his bedside table.
Heh, cold medicine, medicine against fever he could even spot some kind of special tea there.
"Wow Shizu-chan, sure is nice caring for his enemies and all," the raven snorted. He couldn't yet decide whether he was offended by the blond´s doings or not. After all he had never asked for his freaking help and he despised the blond for assuming he needed it. The dizziness he was feeling and the cold clinging to his body was kinda making it difficult to not appreciate the medicine that the blond had fetched and that Izaya didn't have to walk out to get it for though.
Shizuo merely shrugged at the response. He hadn't exactly expected the raven to be grateful or anything. After all, this was Izaya he was talking about, the annoying lil piece of shit.
"Would be pathetic if you died from a cold wouldn't it?" he merely stated, and actually meant it for once.
It was odd, because Izaya was actually freaking weak at the moment. Didn´t that mean it was his turn to tease that little shit for once?
"Aw I'm honoured, so you're gonna kill me square and fair?" the flea questioned and hell for a moment the louse looked as though he was pouting. Was he really this annoyed by being sick? Then again he had already experiences just how consumed the raven was by his beloved work.
Laying in bed probably killed him.
"Of course, now stop whining and take the medicine. It's sweet even," the blond stated already having poured some of the liquid from one of the packages onto one of those measured spoons.
It was kinda slimy, pink too and he could smell the sweetness- he remembered having to take these as a kid when he still used to get sick. But the raven didn't seem to be reassured by his words on the other hand as his expression only showed a cringe.
"That's what makes it so gross Shizu-chan," he whined and turned around onto his other side-
Surprised Shizuo looked at the medicine then back at Izaya-
"You seriously like the bitter stuff better?" he questioned in disbelieve- he could still remember those as well, that gross taste as the hellish liquid burned his poor tongue off and ran down his throat like acid destroying every last taste bud.
"Of course, this sugary taste is killing my tongue," the raven mumbled although his voice was slightly muffled beneath the pillow he was pressing his face into.
"Always knew you were strange but to think you would be this weird," the blond added not understanding how Izaya couldn´t enjoy this spoonful of sweetness. Nonetheless the flea had to take some medicine, and Shizuo doubted anyone else apart from him would be dropping by to check on that flea.
And leaving Izaya alone was out of option for now as well, seeing as he wasn't even sane enough to just take some freaking medicine.
"Not everyone can have a sweet tooth like you," the raven snorted making the blond pause for a second.
"How do you know I like sweets?" well not that it was a secret or anything but he couldn't remember having met the flea anywhere close to a bakery before.
"I'm me Shizu-chan, I know everything~" Izaya replied with a cocky grin. "Now about our appointment-" groaning the blond sighed.
"You aren´t seriously still going on about that," he questioned, not getting just why the flea was this keen on being forced to have sex while he was sick. After all it was the very same flea that had always been going on about how skipping one day or something wasn't going to kill him.
"You are no fun," the raven pouted, sitting up straight in bed.
Groaning the blond rubbed his temples. He couldn't even blame Izaya, he was just freaking used to this, but the thought didn't cease disturbing him nonetheless.
"No is no Izaya, as long as you are sick nothing is going to happen there."
"Are you breaking your promise?" the flea suddenly gasped and hell he was doing it so teatratically even Shizuo realized he was just joking around. "I would dieeee so easily and you wouldn't give a fuck~" he whined in an accusing fashion only to find what seemed like a white piece of cloth thrown into his face.
"Oh stop exaggerating, it's only a cold," Shizu-chan announced and Izaya noticed pleased that the white fabric was nothing else but a wet towel to put against his forehead for the fever.
It was cool, really pleasant.
"Hoh, did I miss anything? Is Shizu-chan a doctor?" he mumbled, laying back down as he was feeling way too comfortable right now.
"No but like half of Ikebukuro is sick around this time of the year and usually with a cold so stop whining already, you aren't gonna die," but of course the flea was nowhere near done with his pouts.
"But what if I did?" he repeated, rolling on his side as the blond had been about to approach him with the dreaded liquid.
Halting for a moment the blond seriously couldn't believe how childish the raven was behaving.
"I don't wanna," he mumbled, glaring at that spoon as if it were the devil itself.
"Izaya come on, just take this medicine already and I will leave you alone again alright?" Shizuo tried and for fucks sake he felt a though he was talking to some small kid there.
"Nooo," the raven whined, fitting that image perfectly as if he wanted to live up to the role of a childish lil shit.
"Izaya." Shizuo repeated.
"Shizu-chan~" Izaya grinned.
A sigh escaped the blond´s lips- honestly the flea was freaking hopeless.
"Do I have to force you to take it?" Blinking the raven glanced at the blond from underneath the pillow that he had decided to use a sa shield from the disgusting liquid. Upon hearing the threat he snorted, but glanced at the blond from underneath the pillow still.
"Hoh? How would you?" He questioned, still kinda dizzy and he certainly was feeling hot as well, but that didn't make him any less curious about what the blond thought he could force him with to swallow that gross medicine.
But hell-
"I will drown your computer into the bathtub." Izaya certainly hadn't expected that answer-
"You wouldn´t-" but ohohoho no, the blond certainly seemed like he was serious.
"Do I look like I'm joking?" Shizuo asked, and he already felt victorious, because the only possible thing the flea cared enough about to actually do something was probably his work anyway.
"Shizu-chan there is important work on there, work!" the raven complained, only affirming the blond in his suspicions.
"Is that so?" he hummed all too innocently as if he had never heard of such a thing. "Well, then you should better take that medicine before anything happens to it." Honestly speaking Shizuo felt like some kind of yakuza boss, holding the flea´s computer hostage like this.
It was… a fun imagination.
A groan was to be heard and the raven let his face flop back into the pillow. Muffled mumbles and words were reaching the blond´s ears as Izaya seemed to be contemplating with himself whether the computer was important enough to sacrifice his tongue for. After a couple second the raven rose again from the cushion, still frowning and wearing that pout as it seemed he had come to a conclusion.
"Annoying," he grumbled and moved over to the edge of the bed, where Shizuo was already waiting with that spoonful of medicine in his hand.
Grasping the dreaded spoon the raven cringed, and used his other to pinch his nose as he swallowed the medicine in one go.
Cringing, shuddering the raven squeezed his eyes shut and honestly for a second Shizuo even felt bad for making the flea eat something so gross and that even though it wasn't even that bad.
"Disgusting," the raven announced, throwing the spoon back into the package that was still resting on his nightstand.
Shizuo couldn't help but snort at the reaction.
"Stop laughing at me," immediately earning a scolding from the flea for it.
The flea was surprisingly childish when being sick, well not that he wasn't usually as well but right now it even seemed somewhat cute. A good kind of childish.
Turning towards the door of Izaya´s bedroom the blond figured he had done what he could, given Izaya medicine forced him to rest, he would be well again soon enough. Or so he thought-
"And now you are going to leave me alone?" Shizuo had barely even set one foot outside the raven´s door when that question followed right up. Surprised he turned around to face the raven again.
He was still sprawled on that bed, having rolled onto his side just so much he was able to glance at the blond.
"What don't want me to?" Shizuo questioned surprised and honestly he thought he might have just misheard, but nope.
"It's going to be so boring Shizu-chan," the raven suddenly whined and he really seemed as though he was serious about his request.
"You… want me to stay over? Seriously, flea?" It sounded too…. not Izaya like to be true. After all usually Izaya always kicked him out of his apartment or he was the one to leave Shizuo´s apartment quick enough if they met up for just a bit.
"Got anything else to do?" was the next question fired at the baffled Shizuo as he was still remaining in that small door frame.
"No," he answered truthfully- after all the only thing he was going to do at home was probably watching a movie from his brother or head straight to bed.
"Well then," the flea grinned victorious. "Problem solved~"
Problem solved like hell-
"And where am I gonna sleep? On your couch?" Shizuo questioned with a raised brow- the flea didn't quite think this through did he?There was no way he was going to sleep in the living room like-
"Why? Is my bed not big enough?" Dumbfounded the blond blinked. Looked at the flea, then the bed, then the flea again.
"Wait... you want me to sleep with you in the bed?" he repeated, his own brain catching onto the suggestion while he was speaking it out aloud.
"It's not like we didn't already do more embarrassing things in here anyway," the raven snorted, and honestly speaking he had a point there as well-
Sighing the blond ruffled through his hair, this louse seriously-
"You are even more annoying than usual flea," he sighed, walking back inside that room.
A frown was shown by the raven who was a bit too slow to get what the blond was talking about now.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Izaya questioned, not liking being left in the dark, but Shizuo wasn't really willing to answer him it seemed as he simply flopped into Izaya´s bed as well.
"Nothing," he said, one elbow resting on the mattress to keep his head up as he glanced at the raven. "Just sleep." For a moment the raven kept wondering what the blond was talking about. But honestly he was too tired to keep wondering for a long time and so he just rolled onto his side in silent agreement.
And for once the raven actually did as he was told to and slept.
