Nursing my Sky

Yamamoto's PoV

It was finally the end of the day and I had enjoyed it with practicing my favorite sport. Baseball! I felt myself brim with confidence for the upcoming match. I hope my friends –Gokudera, Kyoko, Sempai, Chrome and Mukuro (who were new transfer students), and Hibari (probably)- watch it!

I look up at the orange sky, it was a very pretty sight.

Nothing could possibly ruin this day!

I suddenly caught something at the corner of my eye. I find myself staring at an alley.

"A stray cat?" I wondered to myself. I wanted to…. Maybe bring it home… but dad will just probably scold me. So I decided to ignore it and continue on my way, but before I could even reach five steps, I heard a whimper.

Cats usually don't whimper like that… right?

I decided to head towards the alley and just check it out. It wouldn't hurt to check…. Right?

I poke my head in the narrow space and look around. It was littered with trash and over stocked trash bins were scattered in random place. People should really learn how to clean their surroundings more. I pinched my nose trying to block the stink, I stepped in still trying to look for… whoever just whimpered.

I heard another whimper and my head turned to a huge trash bin found at the end of the alley. I jog towards it and I immediately saw a small figure hiding behind it, being covered by trashcans. Of course I never overlook stuff. After all, I need to sharpen my eyes for baseball, especially when I need to hit a ball!

As soon as I approach the trash bin, I immediately saw a bit of brown hair poking from the back and tried to move the trash cans surrounding…

My eyes slowly went wide as my whole body went numb. The trash can I was holding drop down the ground with a loud 'CLANG!'

But I couldn't careless as the scene in front of me was more important than a trash can crashing down letting its nasty content scatter down the ground and on my shoes.

There leaning against the bin, was an unconscious teen –probably the same age as me but smaller-, wearing nothing but an oversize shirt, the neckline hung loosely on his right shoulder and the hem reaching his pulled up knees. I was immediately aware of his messy brown hair that looked like it had been pulled painfully couple of times, and the bruises, scratches and scrapes covering his pale and skinny body.

"W-what happened to him?" I muttered as I try to snap out, I knelt carefully next to the frail brunet. My hand slowly reaches out to touch his bruised cheek but was stopped as he whimpered in pain. I immediately shook my head. I had to call an ambulance! No, there's no time, he had to be treated now.

'My house isn't that far…' I then thought as I gently gather the brunet in my arms… as delicate as I can, cause every touch seems to make him wince in pain.

I could feel the other shiver in my arms as well as the warmth radiating from him. This is bad, he caught a high fever. I ignored all the people staring at us as I try to sprint to my house without moving the brunet too much, which was a bit hard by the way.

As soon as I arrived home, which was a sushi place, I got to the back door and open it. I couldn't afford to enter at the main entrance where all the customers will be staring at me in shock as I carry an injured boy. It would cause a lot of commotion.

I immediately head upstairs to my room.

I kick my door open as well as the things lying on the ground as I made my way to my bed.

I settled him down carefully before running to my closet to grab some cleaner clothes. As soon as I set them out I went towards the bathroom.

I wasn't sure why I was doing this to a stranger but, my instincts had taken over me. I never met him, but I couldn't help but feel pity and worry for him.

I walk out the bathroom carrying a bowl of clean water and a clean cloth hanging by my arm. I put the bowl by the desk and soak the cloth 'I wonder who he could be?' I thought as I softly wipe it over his slightly dirtied face 'And what happened to him?'

I put the cloth down before brushing the brown locks away from his sweaty forehead and wiping it with the cloth. I continued cleaning his injuries and change his clothes, which were a bit big… so I had to settle with letting him wear a shirt and a pair of boxers. Hope he didn't mind.

As I bandaged his right wrist, which I realized was broken as well as his left ankle, I heard my dad closing the shop below and I took this opportunity to probably tell him… about the brunet.


Plates clattered as my dad cleared a table "Ah hey Dad." He immediately turned to me in surprise "Takeshi? Why didn't you tell me you were home?"

"Sorry about that… something happened… on my way home." I said as I scratch the back of my head, feeling slightly nervous

"Really now?" dad looks at me with a raised eyebrow "Could it be another stray cat?"

"No… of course not…" I laughed

He stared at me, as if deciding whether I was telling the truth or not before shrugging and carrying the tray of sushi plates to the counter.

"But…" I continued, making him look at me with crossed arms. I hesitated for a moment before deciding on what to say next "You should probably go to my room and see for yourself."


I watched as dad look at the person on my bed in pure concern. He seemed to react as better as I hoped.

"Heavens, what happened to this child?" he asked looking dumbfounded as he checked his temperature then his injuries "Quick, call a doctor Takeshi!"

"S-sure." I turned to him "Wait, why don't we call an ambulance instead?"

"We can't…" he suddenly said looking serious as he looked at the brunet's left wrist "Do you see this Takeshi?"

I blinked and look at what dad was pointing at, I stared at the small wrist and immediately saw a mark that looked like ropes tied around it 'Rope marks?'

"Someone did this to him…" Dad looked a bit mad as he said this "People this days… anyway, I think it won't be safe to let him go to the hospital, what if those people who did this try and look for him and pretend he/she was his guardian?"

"I guess…" I look at the brunet with a slight frown. He was panting softly, his cheeks were tainted red as his brows furrowed "I'll call the doctor." I decided before heading downstairs to the phone.

After making a call to the doctor, Dad walked downstairs, looking really troubled muttering something like "What kind of person would do such a thing to a boy?"

"Uhm, hey Pops, sorry for bringing him in without your permission." I approached him

I watch him shake his head "What are you talking about Takeshi? You did the right thing. That boy… would've been in a more desperate position if you haven't found him. Where did you find him exactly?"

"In an alley." I replied "I heard him whimper and I kinda' got curious." I said while smiling sheepishly

He shook his head in awe and disbelief "In an alley? I can't imagine what that boy had gone through."

"So… you're okay with this? Even if he's a stranger?" I asked

"Even if he's a stranger, he's still a child. He needs to be taken care properly." That immediately gave me an idea.

"I'll take care of him pops! I swear!" I exclaimed

"Takeshi, he's not a pet."

"I know that…" I grinned "I just want to… you know, take care of him… I don't know why… but…" I look at the stairs leading to my room "…as soon as I saw him in the alley… I just couldn't leave him alone… and I want to take care of him."

Dad suddenly look at me seriously "If you're willing to take care of him Takeshi, there's more than just healing him physically…" he suddenly pats my chest "…you must heal him in here as well."

I frowned, understanding what he meant.

Someone knocks at our door and I knew it was the doctor. Dad left to get the door while I head upstairs.

I opened the door as quietly as I can before entering softly. I could hear the soft panting of the other and I knew he's fever won't be going down anytime soon.

I knelt beside him while taking the warm cloth on his head then soaking it on the bowl of cold water. I placed it back on his forehead, and watch as the brunet relaxed a bit. I smiled slightly. I might not know who he was, or where he came from or what he had been through, but I felt drawned to him… like when I saw how defenseless he looked back at the alley, I couldn't help but feel a bit overprotective. He had this charisma that I just can't leave him alone.

The brunet suddenly whimpered and I frowned in worry. I patted his soft locks as I spoke softly "It's gonna be ok… everything will be fine…"

I hope I sounded like the rain, that had suddenly started… soft and soothing to one's soul. To be able to wash everything away. Yeah… I'd like that, and he'll be my sky… the sky I need to take care and protect.

End of chap.
