Chapter 1
"… Right, L-Elf?"
L-Elf's focus was abruptly brought back to the conversation. Frowning, he stared at the boy in front of him, Haruto Tokishima.
The brunet gave him a worried look. "L-Elf, is there something wrong? You haven't really seemed-"
"It's nothing. Go on with what you were saying."
Sighing, Haruto replied, "Er, well… I've just had to repeat myself the last two times I said it. Are you sure there isn't anything wrong?" Haruto silently observed the other male. He seemed tired, and his cheeks looked slightly flushed.
L-Elf suddenly stood up from the table. "I should get going. Renbokoji Satomi had an inquiry about-"
"Are you sick?" Haruto suddenly blurted out.
Without looking at the other boy, L-Elf responded, "I am not. Go back to what you were doing." With that, he started out of the room. Haruto quickly made an attempted to reach for his arm. Surprisingly, he wasn't brushed off and was able to maintain his grip.
…There was definitely something wrong. If he wasn't sick, he easily would have been able to dodge his hand. However, he was sick and his reaction time was off. Haruto proceeded to tighten his grip on the other's arm.
"L-Elf, you need to go back to the room to rest. If you keep going around like this, you'll get other people sick. Not to mention you'll get even more sick, so please go back."
"No." L-Elf said bluntly as he shook off Haruto's hand and resumed walking out of the room.
At this point, Haruto began to grow worried. 'I need to do something before he ends up getting sicker or makes everyone else sick… but nothing will stop him unless I…' Suddenly, an idea crossed his mind. 'No, I can't do that… he'll be pissed once he finds out what i've done… but I don't want him to…' Sighing, Haruto ran after L-Elf, who had just exited the room.
"Wait! I need to ask you something!"
Without turning back, L-Elf responded matter-of-factly, "I told you, I do not have time to rest right now. I have to discuss other matters with Sashinami Shoko after I talk with Renbokoji Satomi." Haruto detected a hint of annoyance in his voice as he talked. 'He's going to be really angry after this…I guess I should try when we get a little closer to our room…' He continued to walk next to L-Elf in silence. In a few minutes, they were within a short distance from the rooms. Suddenly, the silver-haired boy stopped walking.
Turning around, L-Elf said, "Tokishima Haruto, you do not need to follow me."
"Oh, well… I was also heading in the same direction…" Haruto tried to avoid L-Elf's eyes. 'He probably knows I'm trying to do something…' Haruto thought to himself.
"I would prefer if you took another route to wherever you must go." L-Elf stated.
"S-sure, I'll just go this way…" 'Crap… I have to do it now before he gets even more suspicious of me…'
L-Elf sternly stared at Haruto for a few more seconds before he turned around again to continue on down the hallway. 'I'm sorry L-Elf, but it's for your own good.' Just as he turned, Haruto swiftly lunged forward, landing a bite on L-Elf's exposed hand.
"Tokishima Haruto- !" The Dorssian made an attempt to throw the Jiorian off, however by that time it was too late. With that, both boys collapsed onto the floor, unconscious.

After a few moments, Haruto awoke in L-Elf's body. As he regained consciousness, a sudden sense of tiredness and nausea overcame him. 'So he really was sick…' Haruto thought to himself. He then sat for a few moments, collecting his thoughts and trying to think of what to do next. 'Ugh… I have to get his and my body back to the room like this… ' Wearily, he stood up. Letting out a sigh, he turned towards his body lying about a foot away. 'If L-Elf can get through the day like this, the least I can do is take my body back to the room…' Slowly, Haruto approached his body and began to half drag, half carry it down the hallway towards his room. Luckily, the room was close so the chances of anyone seeing them were low.
Within a few moments, Haruto had arrived at the room. Upon entering, he quickly locked the door. 'Hopefully once L-Elf is in here, he'll be less likely to leave…' Haruto was silent for a few moments, thinking of how to get L-Elf to stay. 'Maybe I should also call Satomi and Shouko to tell them "I" won't be able to come…' He felt bad about impersonating L-Elf, but ultimately, it was for the his own good. Carefully, he laid his own body on the floor next to the bed and took out L-Elf's phone to call Satomi and Shoko.
In a few minutes, the issue of meeting Satomi and Shoko was solved. Both were completely fine with the change, and offered to meet the next day. Shoko also offered to make soup for L-Elf, which Haruto accepted. 'Even though her food is kind of strange, L-Elf seems to like it. Maybe it will help him to get better sooner,' Haruto considered. Letting out a sigh of relief, he rapidly became aware of how tired he felt in L-Elf's body. He slowly made his way to his own body, leaned down, and bit its neck.
Once again, he was back in his own body. Slowly, he stood up. In the next few seconds, the other had also been brought back to consciousness, and from the look of it, wasn't very happy. Haruto himself probably wouldn't be very happy if someone he had disliked took over his body and took him somewhere he didn't want to be. In the midst of his worrying, his thoughts were abruptly interrupted by L-Elf's angered voice.
"Tokishima Haruto! Why did you bring me here?" L-Elf demanded. Haruto anxiously noted that the Dorssian seemed to be reaching for his gun.
"W-wait! Please listen to what I have to say-"
Haruto was instantly cut off by the sharp pain of a bullet grazing his arm. "Ah!" He clutched the area instinctively, attention diverted from L-Elf. In a matter of seconds however, the cut had healed. 'Huh… usually that would have directly hit me…' He thought to himself. He then quickly brought his gaze back to the Dorssian. L-Elf also seemed to notice that his aim was off, as there were some traces of shock on his face. It was subtle, but nevertheless, still appeared.
"L-Elf, please just rest for today," Haruto pleaded. He tried to hold the other's intimidating stare, in hopes that it would get him to listen. "You'll probably be better by tomorrow," he hesitated before saying the next part. "I cancelled your appointments anyway, so you have nothing for you to do today." At that statement, L-Elf's eyes narrowed. A heavy silence then settled over the room. 'Well, I tried…' Haruto thought to himself with disappointment. Just as he was getting ready to give up, the silence was broken by L-Elf giving an answer.
"Fine, but only today. Now leave," he responded.
"O-Okay! Please try to rest!" He quickly ran out of the room, to avoid being shot at again. He then started down the hallway. 'I should probably check on him in half an hour… Shoko will probably be done making the soup soon, so I'll go get that and come back…' As he thought about what to do next, he began to grin. 'It's kind of funny, seeing L-Elf sick. It feels nice to take care of him…' At the thought, a blush began to spread across his face. 'Why am I…?' He shook his head as he ran. First and foremost, he had to concentrate on helping L-Elf get better.

Ok so this is the first fic I've ever put on fanfiction, so please be kind. Though critiques would be appreciated. I'm sorry if it's not fluffy enough, I'm going to try to make it fluffier later on. I plan on making 2 more chapters. I'll try to update to the best of my ability, however I'm really busy right now ;;;
