Part 4

Hinata's head felt heavy. His fingertips tingled strangely and he twitched them. They seemed to respond to him slowly, curling against a soft material. A loud whistling sound filled his ears. It took a moment for him to realise it was his own breathing, magnified largely. It sounded like some masked monster's breathing from a futuristic movie. He tilted his head with effort to one side and opened his weighted eye lids slowly and painfully.

The room was filled with a faint light, and Hinata had no idea of the time. His eyes panned round the room.

To his left sat Oikawa, his head buried in a book, the lamp lit lowly so he could read the black words on the pages. Next was the door and then round to his right sat two empty chairs. And then a sleeping Suga, his head tilted onto a propped up cushion. Hinata turned right round to his far right, his eyes searching for the clock.

He was victorious: the digital clock on his bedside table red 11:27 pm. Hinata let out a low sigh and the oxygen mask covering his face misted up quickly.

"Hey Shrimpy," He heard a loud whisper from his left.

He shifted his head round and watched as Oikawa placed his book down and crouched down next to him, glancing up at the oxygen monitor as he did.

83%

"I think we can take this plastic off your face for the moment," He winked and carefully began loosening the mask. Hinata nodded slowly, slightly scared by Oikawa's kindly doctor-ish manner that was completely new to Hinata. All he knew of Oikawa was the great king; with the dashing looks, and the killer servers, and let's not forget the scary face.

The mask came off and Hinata immediately felt short of breath, the air without the mask felt thin yet thick at the same time. It felt like someone had shoved a cloth over his face; he hated it. Hinata coughed and gasped heavily, trying fretfully to draw in deep breaths of air, trying desperately to fill his lungs up with oxygen.

"Easy there Shrimpy, you'll get used to it," Oikawa said, feeling Hinata's forehead with the back of his hand, "It'll just feel uncomfortable for a bit; your lungs have got used to all that oxygen and they don't like the fact I just stole it from them." He winked and Hinata gave a small smile, "Just try and breathe normally," The Doc advised.

"O-oikawa-ku-un?" Hinata started.

"Yeah buddy?"

"W-what happened?" He asked, his breathing slowly evening out.

"You fell asleep… and now you're awake." Oikawa teased, stating the obvious.

"Pffftt…" Hinata said through a sigh, "You know what I mean…" He mumbled, tossing his head and pressing it into the pillow.

"You fell asleep and Suga rang your mum, who came with a mini and girl version of you, but she had to leave…" He glanced down at his watch, "She left about an hour ago; she was reluctant to leave you though, but your dad…"

"Is in Tokyo," Hinata finished quietly, "And the mini me would've been Natsu…" Hinata bit his lip… a feeling of homesickness washed over him- why couldn't he have woken up a tiny bit earlier and seen his mum and Natsu? Besides how long had he even been asleep? He arrived at like 4-ish? No… it was earlier… or later than that?

"Yep!" Oikawa's cheerful voice tugged him back into focus, "Your team all visited you while you were sleeping too," Oikawa smirked, "And Tobio-chan was worried sick! Lol, but Suga forced him to go home and eat and sleep."

"How is Kageyama being worried a 'lol'?!" Hinata protested, feeling slightly better at the sound of Oikawa's soothing and teasing manner.

"Well it's Tobio-chan being worried! That's practically unheard of!" Oikawa loud whispered back; still aware of the sleeping third year opposite them. "You've done something to him Shrimpy! He's changed!"

"I haven't done anything!" Hinata pouted and turned away from the doc.

"Anyways- how're you feeling?" Oikawa asked, turning serious once more.

"Not telling!" Hinata exclaimed childishly.

"Huh?!"

"…Untiilllll- you apologise for teasing Kageyama!"

"Wha? Never happening." Oikawa folded his arms and leaned back in his chair.

"Then I'm not telling!" Hinata retorted.

"Well judging by the way you're acting I'm guessing you're feeling fine. Anyways it's late- go to sleep."

"I've just been asleep! I'm all awake now… and hungry…" Hinata gasped, "I missed tea! Gaawaaaahhh! What do I do!? I'll starve!"

"Gah… I don't think you'll starve Hinata! Although I guess some food wouldn't do your body any harm …" He mumbled to himself.

"You have no idea what I turn into on an empty stomach!" Hinata pronounced his expression wild.

"I dread to think," Oikawa said his voice thick with sarcasm.

"You're an awful doctor," Hinata huffed, turning away once more.

Oikawa snorted and let out a quiet chuckle, "Of course." There was a moment of silence, "Fine I'll go and make you some toast!"

"Yay! I love you Oikawa-kun!" Hinata grinned up at the third year.

"Whoa!" Oikawa put his hands in front of him, "That's going way too far Shrimpy!" He winked once again and glanced over at Suga, "Watch over you're team mom Shrimpy and be good! Don't you dare try to get out of bed- I'm being serious now" His eyes lost their sparkle and he turned back into killer server Oikawa, "Close your eyes and try to rest some more, if you feel short of breath just pull the mask onto your face and hold it there. I'll be back in two secs- if you need anything just call out, press the emergency red button or punch Suga on the shoulder," Oikawa took a deep breath, "Got it?"

"Hai," Hinata gave Oikawa a thumb up from his good arm, realising with mild surprise that he had a blood transfusion sticking out his arm.

"Good," Oikawa replied, walking swiftly out the room.

"Mmm…" Suga moaned softly from Hinata's right before settling back down with a single soft snore.

Shouyou took a deep breath and leaned back against his pillows, closing his eyes softly. Kageyama had been worried about him? He didn't know why but he felt sort of happy about that. Maybe Kageyama really did care for him like a friend and not just as a tool for his spikes. Hinata's eyes shot open and he shook his head quickly, of course Kageyama didn't think of him as a tool! Where had that thought come from?

No, they were a team, partners. They were friends… Hinata closed his eyes once more… But wait…Noya-san was his friend… and Tanaka-san… and Hinata certainly didn't feel about them like he did Kageyama… no! Where were these thoughts coming from? Kageyama was just a close friend. Of course he'd be worried- why wouldn't he be? And why was the fact that he had been worried about him such a big deal!?

Hinata suddenly wanted to see Kageyama. So badly that the urge to jump out of bed was almost intoxicating.

But he stayed put and tried to place all these silly thoughts and feelings in a locked chest in the back of his mind.

However once he had, a stabbing pain let itself known from Hinata's arm and he winced, maybe he should have kept the thoughts and feelings as a distraction.

The door suddenly opened and Oikawa walked in with a plate of toast, two slices, and a glass of fresh water. "You okay?" He asked softly, noticing Hinata's pained and confused expression.

"Yep!" Hinata replied happily.

Oikawa lifted the brightness of the light up slightly, but Suga merely shifted his head and continued sleeping soundly.

"Is Suga-san okay?" Hinata asked as Oikawa walked across the room.

"Sure he is; he just fell asleep. He's had a very stressful evening though so it's hardly surprising."

"Hmm…" Hinata mumbled in agreement.

"How's your arm feeling?" Oikawa asked, placing the food down and propping Hinata's pillows up in a motherly way.

"Meh- it's starting to hurt a bit," Hinata admitted.

"In what way? Stinging? Aching? Throbbing?" Oikawa pressed.

"It's like a prickly pain."

"Prickly?" Oikawa frowned, "Okay… so like a stabbing pain? Although I've never heard it put that way before…" He breathed a laugh.

Hinata nodded and reached out with his good arm for the food and drink that was waiting attractively on the table.

"Whoa alrighty, Mr impatient. Maybe that should be your new nickname instead of Shrimpy."

"Hmm… would that be an upgrade?" Hinata asked through a mouthful of buttered toast.

"A down grade," Oikawa classified.

"Oy!" Hinata exclaimed, his voice muffled through the mountain of food in his mouth.

"Wah!" Suga awoke with a jerk at the sound of Hinata's voice, his eyes wide.

Oikawa and Hinata froze and stared across at him. Hinata looked terrified at his outburst. Oikawa was frowning with amusement.

"Hinata!" Suga exclaimed, his brain slowly registering the scene in front of him.

"Sugaaaa!" Hinata yelled happily, still through chewing his toast.

"Don't talk with your mouth full," Suga scolded, leaning down and giving his baby bird a huge bear hug.

"Ahh! Suga you're squashing me! Can't breathe!" Hinata spluttered as Suga let him go.

"How're you feeling?" Suga asked, leaning down and tucking a stray piece of hair behind Hinata's ear.

"Good!" Hinata replied, taking another bit of his luxury toast.

"I'm so sorry Oikawa, I fell asleep and left it all to you," Suga apologised, turning to Oikawa.

"It's fine Suga honestly." Oikawa replied with a smile.

"FINISHED!" Hinata exclaimed, swallowing his last mouthful and taking a large gulp of water.

"Okay," Oikawa took the plate off him and laid it to the side. "How're your lungs feeling?" He winked.

"They got used to having no oxygen," Hinata explained with a child- like innocence.

"Good," Oikawa replied. "Well, I think you should be okay to go home tomorrow but for now let's try and get you some sleep."

He stood up and dimmed the lights to near darkness, "Oikawa-kun?"

"Hai Hinata."

"I'm still hungry."

Oikawa sighed, "Well I'm afraid I can't feed you anymore now- it's nearly midnight. Just try and get some more sleep or your body clock will mess itself up." He sat back down in his seat.

Hinata sighed miserably, "Listen to the Doc Hinata," Suga added.

"Pft- not you too Suga-san!"

Suga laughed, "Come on settle down."

Hinata laid back down, once letting his food settle down of course, and closed his eyes once more.

But the 'prickly' pain in his arm wasn't letting itself be forgotten and after thirty minutes of tossing and turning Hinata gave up. "Oikawa-kun? Are you awake?" Hinata whispered.

He received two replies in unison:

"Hai Shrimpy."

"What's wrong Hinata?"

"My arm hurts…" He mumbled in reply to them both.

He heard Oikawa rummaging in the cupboard, "I don't want to give you anything too strong so let's stick with a couple of ibuprofen. That okay?"

Hinata nodded and took the painkillers gratefully.

"Give them twenty minutes to sink in buddy," Oikawa placed a reassuring hand on Hinata's shoulder.

…

"Suga-san…" Hinata mumbled into the darkness ten minutes later.

He heard two muffled laughs, "Yes Hinata?"

"I can't sleep."

"I wonder why…" Oikawa sniggered. "Maybe if Mr. Impatient stopped talking then…"

"Shut up Oikawa-kun!" Hinata grumbled.

Suga giggled and took Hinata's good hand with his right, and began stroking his forehead with the other.

"Close your eyes," He whispered.

Hinata obliged and closed his eyes softly, enjoying the feeling of Suga's cool finger tips soothing his forehead.

Within minutes he was fast asleep.

"Is he asleep?" Oikawa asked after a few minutes.

"I think so," Suga whispered back, leaning back in his chair, "Magic fingers- my mother used to stroke my hair to get me to sleep too. Apparently it still works on teenagers."

Suga laughed and Oikawa smiled in the darkness, "My mother did the same- she used to get so annoyed when I never shut up. It was her tactic."

The third years laughed in the darkness, "Anyways night Oikawa-kun," Suga snuggled down in his chair, wrapping the hospital issued blanket round his shoulders.

"Night Mr refreshing…" Oikawa mumbled.

Suga frowned, Mr refreshing?
