~Shuichi's P.O.V.~

I couldn't believe my ears. Tachi beat up Seguchi? Yuki killed Tachi? K's back in the hospital?! My head began to spin and I whimpered; Yuki turning his immediate attention on me. He helped me sit up and I watched my idol as he took a step closer to Seguchi.

"Tohma-kun, that's one second...two..." Ryuichi counted; bringing up a finger with each number. Seguchi panicked and ran out of my room.

I bit my lips; side beginning to burn fiercely and I gripped Yuki with everyone ounce of strength I had. I whimpered and begged silently for it to stop; tears rolling down my cheeks. Yuki kissed me on the forehead and I relaxed; ignoring the fire in my side.

"Shu-kun!" Ryuichi called to me. I looked at Ryuichi as he grinned; child-like features returning and he giggled. "Shu-kun looks much better now! Mean Tohma scared him and Yuki-kun!"

I smiled weakly and felt my strength fading; rubbing my eyes. I whined softly and Yuki stared down at me. "Relax, Shuichi. You need your rest. I'll stay here for as long as you need me. I promise." Yuki said sweetly. My heart melted and I sighed happily.

"Okay, Yuki...Yuki...I love you..." I breathed; closing my eyes and falling asleep. I heard no response for what felt like minutes, so I fought to keep awake.

"You damn brat...I love you too."

~Yuki's P.O.V.~

Seconds after I replied to Shuichi he fell asleep; his face as soft and angelic as usual. I couldn't help but smile down at him and Ryuichi pouted.

"What is it, Sakuma-san?" I asked; the two of us walking out of Shuichi's room. Ryuichi opened his mouth then closed it, frowning slightly before he spoke.

"Well...I was just wondering...how do you know you're in love with Shu-kun?" Ryuichi stared up at me as we walked out of the hospital. I pulled out my cigarettes and put one between my lips; lighting it.

"Hmm...I don't know how to explain it. He did something to me. He's taken over me. I see him everywhere, I hear him all the time and I dream about him. I can't sleep if he's upset, either. And not just because he won't stop fucking crying." I admitted. Ryuichi didn't seem happy with that response and he put one hand on his hips as I wiggled the cigarette. "And...I need him more than beer or cigarettes."

"That sounds like an infatuation." Ryuichi sad sternly. I blinked at the oddly big word for the small man and realized he reentered serious mode. I stared at him and he continued to glare. "He should mean more. Prove you love him. Marry him when he gets out."

I stared at him, bewildered. Ryuichi continued glaring at me and I let the cigarette fall from between my lips. "Why the fuck should I marry him? Because you said so? No. When we marry, it'll be because he and I are ready to live together as one. Not because his idol thinks I don't love my own lover." I snapped, annoyed. Ryuichi suddenly cracked an innocent smile and skipped away. I continued to blink in confusion; trying to figure out what just happened.
