it only seemed like a little while later, when-
Ring ring,
His phone was ringing.
Ring ring,
It's a mobile number. This sure as hell better not be a prank call.
Ring ring,
Ri-
'Hello?' Inuyasha asked groggily, checking his clock.
Two in the morning.
'Hello? InuYasha, are you awake?'
He sat up, rubbing one eye. 'I am now. Is that you, Kagome?'
'Yes, it's me.'
'What's up? What's wrong? How're you-'
'Something's happened.' Her voice faltered for a second, then dropped to a whisper. 'I'm worried.'
Instantly, he was up out of bed and pulling a shirt on.
'What is it?'
He pulled a pair of shoes on and reached for his keys.
'I'm moving.'
He grabbed them, and started jogging towards the door.
'You're what?'
'Moving.' There was a pause. 'It's how I called you.'
It took him fifteen minutes to get to and into the hospital through the broken emergency exit he'd seen when leaving the place earlier, and dashed up the stairs to her floor, and followed the long, silent, dimly lit corridors that seemed to have enemies hiding at every turn.
Finally,
Knock, knock, knock.
'InuYasha?'
He pushed his way in, and saw her lying on the floor, the top half of her wrapped in blankets, phone in hand, eyes wide.
'Are you okay?' He asked, striding over to her and attempting to untangle her.
'Look.' She said, and lifted one hand in front of his face, and wiggled her fingers. 'I'd forgotten what it felt like.'
'How'd you get on the floor, dummy?'
'I dunno. I think I fell out of bed somehow. I woke up when I hit the ground though. Ouch.' She emphasised the point by rubbing the back of her head, then blinked twice.
'Right. well it's your own fault for falling, it can't be any good for your back.'
She stuck her tongue out at him. 'Shut up. I know that.'
'Right, I'm gonna have to pick up up to put you back.'
'What do you need, permission? Hurry up.' She said impatiently, holding her arms out like a small child.
'Alright alright. You attempt to sue me, I'll put you back a year or two.'
He bent closer and wrapped an arm around her shoulders, and the other carefully around her hips, and gently eased her back onto the bed.
'Happy now? You've copped your free feel, are you done?' She said.
'Feh. I'll do some x-rays on you in the morning, when it's actually a reasonable hour.'
'Well sorry for miraculously healing at an unreasonable hour.'
She crossed her arms, and couldn't help half-smiling at the sensation.
another chappie :). Short one, I know, sorry. Reviews welcome.
[Edit!] Guys, sorry about this chapter, I had to change the names when I was writing it because my parents DESPISE me being into anime/manga. So I had to write this chapter with other names, and I forgot to change them back. Sorry...
