Two Hearts Revealed: Misao and Ayano's Story

Chapter 11: Hospital Re-Visited.


Ayano, in her state of extreme relaxation, actually managed to wake up before Misao this time, something normally not too impressive but, the following week, has made it rather difficult to get any sort of peaceful sleep, when Misao was not with her. So at home she got little to no rest. Looking over at the clock she saw it was already 4:30, the girls had slept most of the day away.

"…Misao…Thank you so much for always being there for me, just like you promised, you really are here when I wake up…You really are the nicest person in the world, and you love me, and I love you…I love you more than you can know Misao…I would do anything just to be with you forever…If my parents did have anything against it, I wouldn't care…Because I know I would have you there for me…And if you need me I will be there…No matter what happens we will always have each other, I always know that." Ayano thought at she leaned down, kissing Misao gently, and then hugging her, however not removing herself. "…Misao…I never want to let go of you…I know Im kind of weird sometimes, and I want to always hold you, and I always ask you if you still love me... but I can't help it, I just love you so much Misao."

"…How is your head?" Misao asked, stretching as she awoke.

"Good, thanks to you." She replied, quickly kissing her.

"Heh…Thanks, waking up to you cuddling against me is just adorable." Misao replied, smiling.

"…I was just glad you were still there when I woke up." Ayano replied.

"I promised I always would be, didn't I." Misao replied, happily

"Yep." Ayano said nodding, still holding on to her.

"…Umm…Sorry for the mood breaker…But do you mind letting go real quick…I have to go to the bathroom." Misao said, realizing they had slept the entire day, and she had not used the rest room, since the day before.

"…ha of course…We should probably get up anyways…I want to see how Konata is doing" Ayano replied, as she released, Ayano from her grasp.

Miao quickly hurrying to the bathroom, as Ayano stretched her arms out, looking around Misao's room, staring at the all the pictures Misao had of the two of them, pictures of them throughout their childhood, Interestingly enough she saw a picture that made her laugh. "…Hmm…Was it that long ago?" Ayano asked herself as she stared at a picture of both Misao and Ayano when they were 12 she only knew when it was because it had the date on the bottom. In the picture Misao was hugging Ayano, and a very clear blush was visible on Ayano's cheeks.

"…I found that, about a week and a half ago…I thought it was a really cute one of us." Misao said, as she wandered back into the room, witnessing Ayano holding the picture.

"…Yeah it is…I wonder if I was blushing because I like you back then or not…That is so long ago I can't remember."

"Yeah I can tell you do…You have that same look about you as you do now, whenever I catch you staring at me…That happy cute look."

"R…Really…I didn't know I had a look…And when have you caught me staring at you?" Ayano replied, embarrassed.

"Lots of times…like at school, I turn around and see you staring a lot, and at the movies I have seen you watching me, when you think I am not looking…Also whenever we ride the train together." Misao replied, naming multiple times, it was something she had caught Ayano doing a lot.

"Fine…I guess I do it a lot…I'm…" Ayano began saying but was cut off.

"Before you finish, you don't need to apologize for that, it is really cute, those times I catch you staring at me, you always have that cute look about you, and I can tell you are thinking about me." Misao quickly said, interrupting Ayano before she said what she knew she would.

"…Yeah...Ha-ha that must be why I never noticed you seeing me." Ayano replied, rubbing her head.

"You are so adorable." Misao responded, giving her a quick kiss. "You are so cute and romantic without even trying to be, all those little things you do…It really shows me how much you care, and I really like it."

"…Well you are always taking care of me, and saying such cute things, and you always tell me you love me, and you hold me as I sleep…Im not the only one who knows how to be really romantic."Ayano replied, which caused Misao to blush.

"…Guess we both have our own ways we are romantic." Misao replied a smile and blush accompanying her. "…That is why we can be together so perfectly."

"...I…I feel really bad for Kagami..." Ayano randomly said, a small tear forming, when she realized how she must feel. While Misao and she were happily enjoying each other's company, Kagami was probably alone, waiting to find out if Konata would live or die.

"…Yeah…" Misao replied weakly, remembering the greatly distressed state she was in.

"…I feel bad, we are here, being happy and romantic with each other…And Kagami has no clue how Konata is doing...They have been together longer than we have, so it must be really hard for her…I mean Kagami is a tough girl, but the way she looked yesterday…It was so sad."

"…I know…It was like that wasn't even her…Her and Konata love each other so much…I can't even imagine how she must feel…I mean we might not even be together yet if it was not for them."

"Yeah…If it wasn't for them telling us, we might not have ever told each other…I don't know where I would be right now, if it weren't for them…"

"…Lets go…Kagami need us." Misao quickly said, determined to help her friend through what she was going through, hoping with every fiber of her being, that Kagami would not have to be alone.

"…Before we go, do you think I could change? My clothes are all wrinkly and messy from being in bed all day." Ayano asked, looking around for something to change in.

"Yeah…Umm….This might fit you." Misao said, grabbing a shirt and skirt, much like the one Ayano had.

"Thanks….Hey this kind of looks like one I have." Ayano replied, looking at the clothes.

"Yeah…Well…I got it because I wanted to dress like you did, because I like you like that style, so I figured I would try it out too." Misao replied, slightly embarrassed.

"Ha-ha that is pretty cute." Ayano responded, causing Misao to blush slightly.

"…Umm…I should leave while you change…Right?" Misao asked, unsure of the answer, but walking towards the door.

"Well…I…I mean you don't have to…But…I…" Ayano replied, unsure of what to say, feeling greatly embarrassed.

"Ha-ha I just wanted to see that adorable reaction of yours, I will leave." Misao said, laughing at Ayano getting so flustered, as she reached for the handle.

"…W…Well…I was going to say…If…If you wanted to stay in here I wouldn't mind…B…Besides, we have taken like baths together and stuff…B…But that…That doesn't mean I want you staring at me…Not…Not that I would mind if you did…But…It would feel weird…Well…Not really I guess I mean…I…Im not sure, what Im trying to say." Ayano replied, going in circles and repeating herself, out of shear embarrassment.

"…I have no clue what you are saying." Misao responded, jokingly rubbing her head in confusion

"…What…I mean is…I…I suppose…I don't mind if you…watched me…Undress." Ayano responded, incredible embarrassed, her cheeks a rich red.

"Wah! I…I…Umm…I…I don't know…It would be awkward." Misao responded also very embarrassed, at the thought of watching Ayano undress.

"…I…Im not saying stare at me, that would be awkward…I…I was just going to say…I…I don't really mind if you are in the room…"

"…I…I think I should just go outside." Misao responded, completely unsure of how to respond to Ayano.

"D…Do not think I would look good? I…I mean…I…W...Would you not like to see me like that?" Ayano asked, thinking Misao would not like to see her.

"T…That's not what I meant…I…I would…I think…You would look good…I…But…I...Im just going to wait outside." Misao replied, just as embarrassed at responding as Ayano was at suggesting it.

"…Maybe that was a weird thing so suggest…B…But I would mind if she saw me…I…I mean…I…I want to do that stuff with her…I…I don't mind if It Is with her…having…S…Sex…Wi…With Misao…I…I would for her…B…But maybe later…Im not sure we are ready for that…" Ayano thought, getting even more flustered at her own thoughts, the shear awkwardness of what she had suggested and what she was thinking.

"…Ayano naked…I…Its not like I haven't seen it before…But now that we are dating it is different…B…But I do want to see her…And…Maybe…Other things…B…But maybe sometime later…S…She probably looks really good naked…S…She is actually surprisingly curvy…No…No that is a weird thought…Well…Is it really… I mean she is my girlfriend…So…I guess it is not weird that I am thinking about her naked…I…I don't know…It is still kind of weird…I bet she is really sexy…feeling her against me naked…I t would be like the closest we could get together…I…I should stop, this is getting awkward." Misao thought conflicting with herself. Feeling incredible awkward, luckily no one besides the two were home to hear this conversation.

"…Umm…Misao Im done…" Ayano said, finishing getting dressed and opening the door.

"…What?! Ohh sorry I guess I was thinking…You look good." Misao replied, wanting to compliment her.

"Thanks…Umm…Do you want to change too?" Ayano suggested.

"I…umm…I think Im good" Misao replied, not wanting to replay the conversation.

"Alright…Well, I suppose we should head out…Kagami probably need us." Ayano said, worried for her friend.


-At the hospital

"I hope she is better." Misao said, as they opened the doors, to the hospital.

"Hey…Isn't that Ayano and Misao senpai?" A blonde haired girl asked as she dragged a certain Meganekko along with her, as they ran up to Misao and Ayano.

"Ohh hey guys." Ayano replied.

"Hey…So…you must have heard the news… DO you know how she is?" Hiyori asked.

"…Well…We just got here…But we saw her last night…She wasn't good." Ayano replied.

"You saw her last night?" Patty asked.

"Yeah…well not really…We saw her being put it in ambulance and we came to the hospital…But her dad told us we should leave." Misao explained.

"Why did he ask you to leave?" Hiyori asked, confused at Konata's dads actions.

"…The shape Kagami was in…She looked really bad, he said it would be best if no one bothered her." Ayano replied.

"Was she really that bad?" Patty asked.

"Yeah…She looked horrible, think about how she must have felt." Ayano explained.

"She was just waiting to find out; if the person she loved most would live or die…I can't even think about something like that." Misao replied.

"Yeah…She must feel horrible…I hope Konata-Senpai is okay." Patty replied.

"Yeah we should go see." Misao replied, as the four girls walked towards Konata's room.

"…We need to help Kagami…She is probably really torn up about all this, especially if Konata isn't better…We should just try and stay as positive as possible, for her sake." Ayano replied.


"…I think I can hear her…This must be the room they are in." Misao said, hearing the commotion, from across the hall."

"…Yeah…I…well…No…I'm a wreck… Miyuki… I can't live without her… I wanted to get married and always be with her… I always counted on her being their… I never even thought that this could happen." Kagami said running up to her friend burying her face in her shirt.

"…Poor Kagami…" Ayano quietly said, the four girls huddled around the room.

"Kagami…It will be okay…Konata will be fine."Miyuki said gently calming her friend

"No…I am tired of everyone saying it will be fine… You don't know… None of you know…Konata could die… And…And…I would be alone… I can't do it…I refuse…" Kagami said raising her voice finally letting out all her fears, and anger on the poor bystander Miyuki.

"…I…I don't think we should go in there…Kagami looks like she is a mess…And I don't think Konata is any better…T…This is really bad." Ayano sadly replied, her eyes getting tearful, tightly gripping Misao's hand, and Misao gripping tightly back in response.

"Konata-senpai…A...Are you okay?" Patty asked, in silence a tear also forming in her eyes.

"Kagami…She won't die…" Miyuki reassuringly replied.

"…Yeah?! Well how do you know? You don't know everything Miyuki." Kagami said angrily, but Miyuki knew she was not actually angry at her just immensely scared of losing the person she loved more than anything.

"…Konata-Senpai…You can't go…Kagami would be devastated…And who would promote my work if you weren't there? We Otaku need to stick together." Hiyori said, looking at her hospitalized friend.

"…She is so upset…I have never seen Kagami like this…She looks horrible, I can understand though…Konata means everything to her, she must be losing her mind right now, I don't even want to imagine that." Ayano added.

"Kagami…"

"Miyuki…I'm so scared… I…I'm sorry for getting mad at you… It's not your fault…I…I just… I don't think I can handle this…If she doesn't wake up…I…" Kagami said releasing Miyuki and falling to the floor.

"Kagami…Shh… don't say things like that… She is going to wake up." Miyuki said Picking Kagami up trying to reassure her.

"…Miyuki…"

"Shh Kagami… Don't say anything more… Just stay here with her." Miyuki looked towards the door and saw Misao and Ayano there but also both Patty and Hiyori… Patty and Ayano were crying and Misao and Hiyori both looked as they were trying to hold it in.

"…I think we should leave…Kagami is under too much stress right now." Ayano replied, looking at the broken girl on the floor crying."

"…Yeah…She probably does not want anyone else coming in telling her everything is okay… That will just make her feel worse." Hiyori replied.

Miyuki bowed her head and they left figuring that Kagami was already under enough stress and the constant people were only making it worse. So they quietly paid their respect and exited the room.

In silence the four girls left the room, wandering towards the waiting room outside.

"Kagami, looked…So…So horrible, I don't ever want to see her like that again." Misao replied, truly hurt at seeing her friend so distressed.

"I have never seen someone that sad in my entire life…Kagami looked so miserable...She loves Konata so much, I completely understand how she must feel." Patty replied. Tears still in her eye.

"Yeah…It is probably a good thing we left…She probably couldn't take more people hanging around telling her everything is okay." Ayano said.

"…Im not sure if I am more worried about Konata-Senpai or Kagami…I don't think Kagami can handle herself if something happened to Konata…She would take that so rough." Hiyori replied.

"I know what you mean…I mean, not only I am really worried for Konata, but Kagami too…I don't think she will be able to take this much longer…She already looked like she gave up all hope in there…She looked like she didn't want to live without her." Patty said

"…She must love Konata so much…Kagami is normally so strong and usually hides how she feels…She didn't even seem like the same person in there. She seemed like she was just a broken shell…It was so sad…I hope Konata gets better…I don't want Kagami to be that sad." Ayano replied.

"…You guys are still here?" Miyuki asked, as she stepped out of the room, noticing that the four of them were still in the waiting room talking.

"…Yeah…We are really worried…How are they?" Misao quickly asked.

"…Well…The doctors aren't sure if Konata will make it or not…Apparently she is on an experimental drug that may halt the disease…But it isn't 100%." Miyuki explained, sounding as if she had already done all the research.

"Oh my god!" Ayano said covering her mouth, tearing up along with patty. "…How is Kagami holding out?"

"…Not very good… she is such a wreck…I have never seen Kagami like that…The way she sounded…It was…Scary." Miyuki said, still crying a little.

"Scary? What do you mean?" Misao asked slightly confused.

"…I don't know…Just the way Kagami was acting…I don't think she is willing to live without Konata…She kept saying she couldn't handle losing her…And that she would not live without her…I…I think she might do something drastic if Konata doesn't make it." Miyuki explained, very sad at the thought.

"…Yeah…I was worried about that…When we saw her yesterday, she looked horrible…Like she was already dead, she was emotionless and she barely even moved…It's like she has no will to even live anymore…We really need to help her." Ayano replied, hoping that Kagami would be okay.

"...Im sure Konata will be fine…I mean she has to be." Hiyori replied, greatly afraid of her oldest friend, Konata was someone who was well respected in the Otaku community, and a person Hiyori looked up to for a long time, as well as being her first real friend.

"Yeah…She is going to be just fine...Konata is a fighter…Besides she would not leave Kagami without a fight." Patty replied, trying to be optimistic.

"…I…I think Konata will be okay…I…She will make it" Miyuki sadly replied.

"…I hope she does...I really hope she does." All five of the girls simultaneously thought.
