Nice job reviewers!! Yup, Funngurl's here for another chapter! Chapter 6 is finally here!! If I left you on a cliffhanger, you'll now find out what happens so, R&R!! NO FLAMES PLEASE AND THANK YOU!!
Yuki sighed, and heaved the unconscious Kyo onto his back, if he didn't get him back to the hospital, who knows what'll happen. "Baka neko, you shouldn't have left the hospital," muttered Yuki, as he ran to the hospital, as fast as he could.
When he arrived, he brought Kyo into his room, where a very flustered Nurse Hinita was fussing around looking for him. "Uh, if you're looking for Kyo, he's right here," said Yuki as she spun around.
"What happened?" she demanded as Yuki laid the cat on the bed.
"He came to find me, I'm his cousin, Yuki Sohma, but he went into a coughing fit, so I brought him back," Yuki said simply.
"Oh, well this is bad!" said Nurse Hinita worriedly.
"What's wrong?" asked Yuki nervously.
"He shouldn't even be out of bed! His lungs are still so weak, that even walking can wear him out, he'll run out of breath quickly, and running is dangerous in his condition! Sohma-kun, was Kyo running?"
Just then Yuki remembered:
Flashback"Kuso nezumi," said Kyo. Yuki dropped the knife again, to see Kyo, leaning against a sturdy tree, panting for breath. He'd obviously run all the way there. "You, baka," Kyo spat smirking.
End of flashback"Yeah, he ran really far," said a guilty Yuki, feeling somewhat responsible.
"I was afraid of this," said Nurse Hinita worriedly, as she shook her head.
"Afraid of what?" asked Yuki.
"Your cousin had overworked his lungs running, and because of that, he's now in a coma," she said bowing her head in sympathy.
"A…coma?" asked Yuki wide-eyed, not able to believe what the nurse just told him.
"I'm afraid so," she said sadly. "And if he doesn't wake up within a week…" she trailed off. "If he doesn't wake up within the next week, his lungs will stop functioning and…it's over, he'll die," she said quietly, as Yuki sat there, wide-eyed in shock.
"C-can I please use the phone?" asked Yuki, pulling himself out of his thoughts.
"Of coarse," she said sympathetically.
MeanwhileThe phone rang, as Tohru answered it hurriedly, hoping it would be Yuki. To her luck it was.
"Yuki-kun! I was so worried! Where are you?" she asked as tears pooled her eyes.
"I'm at the hospital Honda-san, with Kyo. I have bad news," he said sadly.'
"What? What's wrong?" she asked horrified, afraid to find out.
"I don't wanna say over the phone, just come to the hospital," said Yuki drearily.
"O-okay, I'm on my way!" said Tohru as she hung up the phone, and picked it up to call a taxi.
At the hospital"Yuki-kun!" she cried running up to him and pulling him into a hug. "Yuki-kun, I was so worried," said Tohru, nearly in tears.
"I'm sorry Honda-san," said Yuki, as they headed in to Kyo's room. "Honda-san, when I was gone, Kyo came to find me, he snuck out of the hospital, and I fell asleep in my secret base. He woke me up and told me you were worried about me, but went into a coughing fit because…he ran all the way there," said Yuki slowly. He knew he was lying, but he couldn't tell her he had tried to commit suicide.
"Yuki-kun? Kyo-kun will be okay…won't he?" asked Tohru worriedly.
"Honda-san, honestly…I don't know," said Yuki looking away. "He overworked his lungs while running, and went into a coma. If he doesn't wake up within a week…his lungs will stop working and…he'll die," said Yuki sadly.
"N-no…no…" said Tohru quietly as tears gathered in her eyes. "K-Kyo-kun…KYO-KUN!" she cried running over to the bed in hysterical tears. Yuki came right after her, and pulled her into a strong hug. For the first few seconds she struggled to break free, but soon, dissolved into loud and consistent sobs. Yuki just held her there, as one lone tear slipped down his own cheek.
He held her there until she had finally cried herself to sleep. He saw that Kyo's nurse had brought a spare couch in for her, since lately she had been staying the night. He laid her down on the couch, as he brushed the bangs from her eyes, and ran his hand down her tearstained cheek. Then he sat down in a chair beside the couch.
The last thing he muttered before sleep overtook him was, "I'm sorry"
About two hours later, Tohru woke up, only to see Kyo in the same position as before, but Yuki wasn't there. It was then she saw a note on the chair beside the couch. It read:
Dear Honda-san,
I've just gone to the restaurant for dinner; I'll be back soon
Yuki Sohma
She placed the note back on the chair and took a seat beside Kyo's bed. She took his tan hand in her own, and noted on how cold it was compared to his usually warm touch.
"Kyo-kun, please come back. This isn't even you anymore, it's not the kind-hearted redhead I know and love. It's like your not even here anymore. You have to wake up Kyo-kun; if you don't within a week…you'll…" she broke in to hysterical tears, unable to finish her sentence. All she could force out was, "P-PLEASE DON'T LEAVE ME!!" She repeated it over and over as she cried into his cold hand, that was engulfed in her small but warm hands.
Suddenly, Tohru stopped sobbing when she felt a small squeeze. She thought it was just her imagination until she felt it again. It was Kyo! "K-Kyo-kun? Kyo-kun are you awake?" she asked hopefully. He didn't respond or make any further movement. Her heart fell, but she felt a tiny twinge of hope that he just might pull through. He must've still heard her, even in the state he was in.
"I love you Kyo-kun, I love you so much. Please come back," she said honestly and hopefully. "Please," she pleaded. Just then Yuki walked in, this time, accompanied by Shigure, Hatori, and his own brother, Ayame.
They all sat there that night quietly, with only a few comments from Shigure and Ayame. Tohru with silent tears streaming down her face. All she could think was "Mom, please save Kyo-kun…please…"
After everyone left, Tohru decided to stay the night again. She pushed the small, light couch next to Kyo's bed. She lay down, and as she did, she took his hand. "Goodnight Kyo-kun," she said gently, as she leaned over, and gave him a soft peck on the cheek. Then finally, holding Kyo's hand, she fell asleep.
The next day, Yuki, Shigure, even Momiji were worried about Tohru. She wouldn't leave the room, not even to eat. They tried to get her food, but she wouldn't eat. They couldn't bring any food in the room, because in Kyo's condition, the room had to remain sterilized.
"Honda-san, you have to eat something," said Yuki gently. "If you don't you'll starve," he finished.
"I'm not leaving Kyo-kun," she said softly, with a shaky voice.
"Honda-san, what your doing isn't healthy. If you don't eat you'll get really sick," said Yuki worriedly.
"I'm not leaving Kyo," she repeated gently. "Thank you for worrying about me Yuki-kun," she said gently, offering him a small smile.
"Promise me you'll eat at least one meal a day okay?" pleaded Yuki.
"Alright," she said as she got up, let go of Kyo's hand, and went to get some food from the restaurant on the main floor.
Yuki went with her, and Shigure stayed in the room with Kyo. He sighed, and said to Kyo's sleeping form, "You know, your really worrying Tohru-kun." And then added, "Your worrying the whole family."
