JackalGod: Was bored so I fast-forwarded time so I could continue with the story. Someone asked when Akabane and Ginji were going to hook up so I wrote it in quickly just to keep you happy.

Several weeks later things had returned to normal, well as normal as things in the world of Get Backers got. With Akabane's help, Ban had been transferred to the local hospital and was making a fast recovery. He still refused to talk to anyone but Ginji but his personality was slowly returning to normal. Ginji was still staying with Akabane at his apartment and they'd both become close friends.

Akabane walked down the street cursing the strong wind in his mind as he held his hat down to stop it from being blown away. He arrived at the Honky Tonk took a huge mental breath and walked in

"Morning Akabane," called Ginji waving

"Good Morning Ginji-kun," mumbled Akabane pulling his hat down to hide his faint blush. Akabane crossed the café and sat down as far from Ginji as he could "Why now, damnit I'm trying to suppress these feelings."

"What feelings?" asked Ginji suddenly at Akabane's side. At the lack of answer and look of surprise on the doctors face Ginji sat down next to him and repeated the question

"My feelings for you." was the hesitated reply

"Oh, why are you trying to suppress them?" asked Ginji

"Because I know I have no chance with you so I thought it best if I forgot that I liked you."

"I don't recall saying you never had had a chance with me." said Ginji slowly

"But when I confessed to you said that you didn't feel the same way."

"No, I believe what I said was 'but you would understand 'if' I didn't feel the same way." said Ginji smiling slightly "I simply wanted to make sure that you weren't the type to force people into things and after that time well I couldn't be to careful."

"I see," said Akabane lowering his head "You know I am sorry for that, I had no idea what I was doing, I just you know did it with out thinking and I really didn't mean to and well it just happened well you know you were there but that's not the point...huh?" said Akabane as Ginji had placed a hand over his mouth to stop the flow of apologies

"Just shut up," said Ginji before closing the space between their lips. Time stopped for Akabane the only thing that continued to matter was Ginji's body against his as he kissed the blond passionately. After a minute Ginji pulled away to breath a blush spread across his cheeks "You've changed you know"

"Changed how?" asked Akabane

"You've become very jumpy around me," replied Ginji "Not like your usual calm self."

"It's hard to be calm when you have a million thoughts and emotions battling inside your head." said Akabane "But you know Ginji suddenly they're all calm and I can hear myself again."

"You've been trying to deny yourself a powerful and wanted feeling," said Ginji smiling slightly "you shouldn't you know. It's better to express your emotions."

"But I'm just not like that Ginji," said Akabane "I prefer to be calm and collected rather than an explosion of emotion like you are."

"I know, and that's probably why I like you the way I do. You're so different from me and you know what they say 'opposites attract', I think they're right this time."

"Ginji-san!" called Natsumi suddenly "The hospital just called, it's Ban he's run away."

"He's what?" exclaimed Ginji

"The doctor says he just was scared and ran off." explained Natsumi looking as if she was going to start crying

"Ginji let's go." said Akabane standing up

"Right!" said Ginji following suit and the pair fled from the Honky Tonk

Meanwhile Ban was wandering through the streets of Shinjuku

"Where are you Ginji?" he called his voice barely above a whisper "Why did you leave me alone? Why did you leave me for him? Don't you like me anymore?"

"Mido?" came a surprised voice, causing Ban to look up "What are you doing out of the hospital?"

"Monkey Boy?" asked Ban his eyes slightly out of focus. He swayed on nearly numb legs, falling forwards into Shido's waiting arms

"Hell Mido! What did you think you were doing." asked Shido

"I'm sorry," came Bans faint reply "I was just looking for Ginji"

"Ginji visits you everyday at the same time all you had to do was wait another couple of minutes."

"But he took Ginji away from me, made Ginji hate me." said Ban

"Who took Ginji away?" asked Shido realising that Ban wasn't quite together at the moment

"That guy Jackal, he took Ginji away and made Ginji hate me." replied Ban

"Ginji doesn't hate you," said Shido "Ginji likes you a lot, I'm still not sure why but he really does like you. Heck he likes everyone."

"But Jackal took Ginji away."

"If you mean giving Ginji a place to stay, I don't think that's taking him away. You were in hospital he couldn't stay with you."

"Do you hate me?" Ban asked suddenly looking Shido in the eyes

"I'll admit you're not my most favourite person in the world but I don't exactly hate you." replied Shido thinking about it

"So you don't hate me?" asked Ban

"No I don't, now let's get you back to the hospital."

"No!" cried Ban struggling in Shido's arms "I don't wanna go back there, they won't leave me alone and they make Ginji leave me just after he comes"

"Okay Mido calm down!" cried Shido holding Bans squirming form tightly "I won't take you back." Ban stopped moving immediately and allowed Shido to help him walk down the street

"Thank you Shido-sama." muttered Ban making Shido stare at him

"Geez what's happened to you Mido? What happened to a brash, arrogant guy that I knew from before?"

"The people at the hospital keep saying I'm to energetic, then they stab me and I feel really tired." said Ban his words running together slightly

"Oh God, Mido you're drugged." said Shido finally understanding the reason for the change in Bans behaviour

"Where are we going?" asked Ban

"To the Honky Tonk then you can be with Ginji again." replied Shido

"Ginji." muttered Ban

JackalGod: Just so you know Ban hasn't gone insane he's just really drugged up and slightly out of it. He's still recovering. Just wondering should I pair Ban with someone and who should I pair him with?
