ATTENTION! I have NO knowledge of medical terms. Everything you read in this chapter comes from watching House and other hospital shows. Please PM me if you notice a large error so I can fix it. I at no time claim to have vast medical knowledge. And the hospital name, I made that up too.
I have no idea if the injuries I'm giving Usagi are what you would normally get in an accident, so bear with me. And also I have no idea how long these injuries would cause someone to stay in the hospital.
I'm sorry if Misaki is OOC, but I tried to get him right. And I don't really remember Usagi-chichi except that he keeps send Misaki bear carvings, but I think I remember he didn't want Misaki with Usagi-san so that Usagi-san will come back to the family, so I'll just go with this thought.
I cannot find a location fo M University so lets say it's in Tokyo.

"IV drip! Prepare the OR!" Akihiko could vaguely hear people talking, but was not able to tell what they were saying. All he knew was that his whole body hurt. He could only hope that he would see Misaki again.
:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:
Misaki sighed. He knew he should be disgusted with himself. He was in a relationship with another man. But the disgust had long passed. All that was left was love.
And don't I sound like a love struck school girl?
His face heated up and he put his face in his hands. But he really loved Usagi-san. He never thought he would be loved by anyone other than Takahiro. He didn't deserve it. It was because of him that they didn't have parents and that his brother had to drop out of M University.
But he was so glad when he found Usagi-san. Sure, the silver-haired man didn't make the best first impression. Or second. Or fifth. But it all turned out well. He had the love of a wonderful -if perverted- man who could have anyone he wanted.
God, think manly thoughts!
Misaki walked towards the front of the campus. Usagi-san said he was going to pick him up today from class since he was free. Misaki knew he had a manuscript due, but Usagi seemed determined to spend the day with him. He felt his face heat up again.
Misaki had been standing at the campus gates for 10 minutes before he decided something was wrong. Usagi-san was NEVER late, Misaki was concerned. The brunette told himself to wait 10 more minutes before freaking out and calling every person he knew.
:-:-:-:-:-:10 minutes later:-:-:-:-:-:
Misaki dug around in his pockets for his phone. He quickly found his brother's number in his contacts.
"Nii-san? Have you heard from Usagi-san?" Misaki asked as soon as Takahiro picked up.
"Usagi-san? No, I haven't. Why, you haven't seen him? Is something wrong?" Takahiro asked. Misaki could hear Takahiro's voice rise in concern.
"No! No... just… I wanted to know what he wanted for dinner and his phone is off," Misaki lied. He didn't want to worry his brother if nothing was actually wrong. "Well, why don't you two come over here for dinner? Manami is making a dish from America." There was a touch of pleading in his voice. After all, Manami wasn't known for her cooking.
"I'll ask him Nii-san, goodbye." Misaki closed his phone and thought of any other people who might know where Usagi-san was. Aikawa was on vacation in Hawaii, courtesy of Usagi-san. But Misaki knew that it was just a way for the novelist to get Aikawa away from him so he wouldn't be constantly yelled at for not doing his work.
Misaki was just about to resort to calling Isaka when he received a call. He didn't recognize the number.
"Hello?"
"Yes, hello. Is this Misaki Takahashi?" A professional voice asked from the other side.
"Yes."
"Mr. Takahashi, I'm afraid there's been accident. Akihiko Usami was in a car accident and you're listed as his emergency contact. If you could please come to Sakura Hospital right away." The person said something else, but Misaki wasn't listening.
Usagi-san.
Usagi-san was in the hospital, after an accident.
"I-Is he alive?" Misaki almost didn't ask the question. What would he do if the answer was no?
"Yes, he just go-" Misaki snapped his phone shut and ran in the direction of Sakura Hospital.
It didn't matter that Sakura Hospital was over 5 miles away.
:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:
Misaki rushed through the opening doors of the hospital. He ran over to a nurse's station and tried to catch his breath.
"Can I help you?" A startled nurse asked from behind the counter.
"Yes, I'm looking for Akihiko Usami, he was in an accident. Someone called me and asked for me to come. My name is Misaki Takahashi," Misaki was able to get out after his breathing returned to normal.
"Ah, yes. You're his emergency contact. We need you to fill out some forms for insurance purposes. He was brought in a couple of hours ago and rushed into surgery. He just got out and has been given pain killers so he won't be awake for a couple of hours. He's in the ICU for now. You can see him after you fill out the forms." The nurse handed Misaki several papers attached to a clipboard.
"If you could also contact the rest of Mr. Usami's family, we would be grateful. Mr. Usami doesn't have any of their contact information on file." Misaki nodded, but could barely understand what she was asking. His mind was still coping with the fact that Usagi-san was hurt.
He took the forms and sat in a plastic chair off to the side. He looked through the papers and filled in everything he knew. There were still some blanks, but he could get the rest from Takahiro. He still had to call him. And Usagi-san's family. He knew that Usagi-san didn't like his family, but Usagi-chichi deserved to know what happened to his son. Misaki just hoped that if Usagi-chichi came to the hospital, he wouldn't bring Usagi-ani.
He tried to calm his breathing, but it didn't want to cooperate. He just couldn't wrap his head around it. Usagi-san, in an accident. He knew Usagi-san was in the accident several hours ago, so it must have been right after he dropped Misaki at class. What could he have been doing that would have caused an accident? Or was he hit by another car?
He pulled out his cell phone, and readied himself for his brother's over-protectiveness.
"Hello? Misaki? Did you get ahold of Usagi-san?" Takahiro asked.
"Y-yeah. Nii-san, he's in the hospital. He was in a car accident." Actually saying it, Misaki tried to keep the tears from falling. Usagi-san was hurt. He had to have surgery. Misaki could feel the silent tears falling down his cheeks.
"What? Where are you? Are you at the hospital with him? Which hospital? Is he okay? What happened?" Takahiro asked in a rush.
"We're at Sakura Hospital. He's just gotten out of surgery. They haven't told me anything else. Nii-san, I need you to help me fill out some forms for him. I got almost all of them done. Please, please come here Nii-san," Misaki choked out after a sob. But he had to be calm for Takahiro. If Misaki freaked out, it would only make things worse.
"I'll be right there! Manami! I'm going to the hospital!" Takahiro yelled the last part away from the phone. Misaki heard some muffled noise and a door shutting in the distance. "Nii-san?" Sounded like Takahiro forgot to hang up the phone. Misaki shook his head and gave a shaky laugh. He closed his phone, turning it in his hand.
He knew Usagi-chichi deserved to know what happened to his son, but Usagi-san would probably be angry at him for calling his family. But Misaki was pretty sure the hospital was not allowed to release Usagi-san's condition to anyone not related to him (no idea if this is true in Japan, but it is in America). Misaki sighed and looked through his contacts for Usagi-chichi's number.
He waited for him to answer, but instead a woman's voice asked, "Hello, may I ask who is calling?"
"Ah, hello. My name is Misaki Takahashi. I need to speak with Fuyuhiko Usami. I-I'm a friend of his son, Akihiko Usami." He said nervously. How do you tell someone their son is in the hospital? "Just a moment," the woman said.
Misaki fidgeted in the hard plastic chair. How would Usagi-chichi react? He tried to calm his breathing, which was still labored. More from worry than from the run.
"Hello? Takahashi-kun?" Usagi-chichi asked on the other side of the phone.
"Usagi-chichi, hello. I- Usagi-san was in an accident, he's in the hospital." Misaki blurted out. Well, like a band aid...
"He, he what? Where are you?" Well, it wasn't over the top like his brother's, but he could hear the concern. Misaki gave him the hospital's address, and Usagi-chichi said he would be there in a couple of hours. He was at a meeting in Hamamatsu and it would take at least 2 hours for him to get back.
When he hung up, Takahiro rushed into the room. He ran up to the nurse's station and started babbling about Usagi-san. Misaki wiped a few tears that had spilled over his face and went up to his brother.
"Nii-san, Usagi-san's asleep. Come over here and we'll finish some forms so we can see him." Misaki guided Takahiro over to where Misaki had left his bag and the forms. Misaki looked at his brother. His tie was coming undone. He had missed a button on his shirt and his shoes were unlaced.
How was Misaki supposed to remain calm when Takahiro was freaking out?
Misaki took a breath. "Nii-san, please, these forms, I don't know some of these things. Do you?" Takahiro sat next to Misaki and took the forms from Misaki. He looked over and used a pen to fill in the occasional empty section. He was reading over the parts Misaki filled out when he frowned. "Usagi-san's allergic to salami?" He asked.
"Ah, yes." Takahiro shook his head and continued down the form. Misaki knew something his brother didn't about Usagi-san? But his brother had known Usagi-san for 10 years. How is it he didn't know this? But still, the fact that he knew it while Takahiro didn't made him happy.
When Takahiro had the rest of the forms filled, Misaki took them back to the nurse's station. The nurse had said they could see him after they finished the forms, so maybe now?
"Ma'am, may we see Usag- I mean, Usami-san now?" The nurse looked at him and typed something into the computer. "Yes, but he won't be awake for a few hours. Have you contacted his family?"
Misaki nodded, "his father is on his way, but he was out of town so it will be a few hours."
The nurse nodded too, "he's on the 5th floor. Room 108." Misaki waved to his brother and went down a hallway. They passed about 6 rooms before they came to the elevator and Misaki pushed the button.
What would Usagi-san look like? Was he in a body cast? What injuries had he gotten in the crash?
Takahiro and Misaki loaded into the elevator, and Takahiro pushed the "5" button. They stood there quietly and listened to the cheery elevator music.
Why would hospitals play cheery music anyways? Hospitals were depressing; there was no getting around that. Misaki sighed and fidgeted as they pulled up to the 5th floor.
His heart was racing. They said Usagi-san was going to be ok, but what if they were wrong? What if they missed something?
Misaki followed his brother out of the elevator and looked for a sign that would lead them to Room 108. They were just outside the elevator and it said to go left. Misaki grabbed Takahiro's sleeve and pulled him to the left.
…105
…106
…107
…108
Misaki stopped in front of the door and stared at it. Usagi-san was in there, hurt. Misaki's heart started to beat fast and his breathing sped up.
Takahiro opened the door and walked inside.
Hello! Next chapter done! I'll try to get the next chapter up in a few weeks but I'm starting college! Fun!... notice the sarcasim? Anyway, hopefully this is as mushy as the last chapter.
