Chapter 5
I do not own anything except for the storyline. All characters except (f/n) belong to the creators of DURARARA!!
I woke up in a dimly lit room with a desk, dresser and bed. I sat up to see Shizuo sleeping with his head at the end of the bed. This meant his feet were in my face. He always looked so much younger in his sleep.

~~***~~Flashback~~***~~

"Hey (f/n), you want to come to my house tonight?" Shizuo asked. We were about 16 at the time.
"I said I was coming whether you wanted me to or not, and I'm coming." I smiled, walking beside him.
"Are you making supper too?" He asked shyly, scratching the back of his head.
"Of course, silly!" I replied, "How does soup and rice sound?"
"Perfect." He said, a smile but truly happy smile on his face. We got to his house and we both went to the kitchen and started cooking. "We have some shrimp if you want to use it." Shizuo said, pulling it out of the fridge.
"Ya!" I squealed, adding it to the delicately seasoned broth and vegetables. After supper we both got ready for bed. I was there so often that I had my own drawer with my toothbrush and sleep shirt. Shizuo was like my brother, he protected me and I protected him. We were inseparable; we even shared his bed when I came over. I had my head on one side and he had his on the other. He would often put his feet in my face, but once I found out he was ticklish he stopped. And we would sleep peacefully.

~~***~~ End Flashback~~***~~

Shizuo was still sleeping when I came back to reality. I wish I could tell him I cared about him now. And not like a brother, I loved him. I still love him; I just wish I could tell him. I crawled to his side of the bed and poked his nose. He didn't wake up so I laid beside him and set my head on his chest. He stirred.
"(f/n)?" He asked groggily. I sat up quickly.
"You're awake, Shizuo. How did you…" I started. He pulled me back down onto his chest.
"You're cold. Come here." He said, holding my shoulders with one hand and my head in place with the other. I relaxed and listened to his heartbeat. "You zoned out earlier, what were you thinking about?"
"You were awake!? Why didn't you tell me?" I tried to sit up but he held me against him.
"Don't change the subject, what were you thinking?" He asked again.
"I was thinking about our sleepovers as kids. It felt the same when I woke up this morning. It felt…"
"Safe and familiar." He finished. We both smiled.
"Yeah, safe and familiar." I said, finally finishing my statement.
"Can I take you to dinner tonight?" He asked, slightly blushing. We were both sitting now, facing each other.
"Is the stongest man in Ikebukuro really asking me out? Omigosh! What am I going to wear? How am I going to do my hair? Whatever should I do?" I squealed in a sarcastic girly way. He just glared at me. "I'm kidding, who would I be if I cared what you thought?"
"People change in 5 years you know." He stated.
"PPFFTT! If I changed at all I probably shrunk!" I laughed, getting out of the bed.
"Yeah, what are you now? Three feet tall?" He laughed.
"Hey!" I yelled. "I'm actually (height)" I boasted. He just laughed at me and rustled my hair. He walked ahead of me to the kitchen and I noticed his toned muscles. I blushed and shook my head to rid the thoughts and followed him to the kitchen.
"What are we making for breakfast?" Shizuo asked, digging through the fridge.
"Do we have eggs, milk, bacon and bread?" I asked, he looked through the fridge a second and started pulling everything out.
"Yeah." He replied, putting everything on the counter as I searched around for a pan and mixing bowl. I opened the top cupboard and found the bowls on the top shelf. I reached up on my toes for them but failed to grab them. Shizuo reached up from behind me and took the bowls down for me, pressing his chest against my back in the process. I tensed and my face heated up. When I looked up at him I noticed a light pink dusted on his cheeks as well.
"You're cute when you blush." I said, grinning a bit.
"I wouldn't be the one to talk, Cutie. You have sweet and innocent written all over your face." He said, elbowing me.
"You know I can kick your ass, Shizuo." I said, kicking him in the butt. He just laughed and shook his head. "What's so funny!?" I yelled.
"I've missed you." He replied, with a smile on his face.
"I've missed you too." I smiled. When we finished breakfast he got dressed and left for work.
