Yay! This time when I said I would updater, I actually did! Except it's retardedly short... but to make up for that I've already written chapter 12 which shoud come up tomorrow or the day after...
This chapter is from Yuki's p.o.v so once again theres a bit more swearing... well it is Yuki XD there might be a bit more of that in the chapters to come...
Well hope you enjoy chapter 11 :D
Yuki looked at the slender figure lying in his bed, curled up under the covers. He had missed Shu so much. Since he had left the hospital he hadn't seen nor heard from him at all. Well what did he expect- Shu couldn't remember him and none of their acquaintances were too supportive of their relationship.
What the hell was Nakano thinking anyway, letting Shu out alone, in the middle of winter, at night? Yuki supposed he should probably call Nakano, to let him know where Shuichi was, but then again he supposed it also couldn't hurt to let Nakano sweat it a few hours. After all, it was his fault for letting Shuichi wander around by himself after only recently being discharged from hospital.
For a while Yuki sat on the bed next to Shuichi, absently stroking Shu's hair. He was so happy to have Shuichi back with him, happier than he had been for god knows how long. But he figured it wouldn't last. Shu would wake up and then, if he was feeling better, he would leave. He had no reason to stay at the house of a man he couldn't remember.
For what seemed like the billionth time Yuki cursed the stalker for doing this to Shu. He was thankful that at least the man was behind bars now. They wouldn't be having anymore trouble from him.
The phone rang.
Yuki was torn for a moment, looking doubtfully down at Shuichi's sleeping form. He didn't want to have to leave him, even for the brief time it would take for him to answer the phone.
The phone continued to ring, angrily, demanding his attention. He got up and went to answer it. Shuichi was sleeping soundly; he would be fine left alone for just a few minutes.
"Hello?" he snapped irritably.
"Yuki-san?" he resisted the temptation to slam the phone back down at the sound of Hiro's voice.
"Yuki-san, please don't hang up! Have you seen Shuichi? He hasn't been home; do you have any idea where he could be?"
"What the hell were you thinking, letting him out alone?" Yuki demanded.
"I didn't know… I thought he would come straight back… he said…"
"Yeah well you should have taken better care of him shouldn't you? I thought you would know better than to let someone who's just been discharged from hospital wonder around by himself in the fucking snow." Yuki was starting to snap.
"I know, I know. And now…" Yuki thought he heard Hiro stifle a sob.
"Listen, Nakano…" Yuki started, about to put the poor boy out of his misery.
"Yuki, I just heard from K- the police, they've lost the stalker! He's escaped from where they were holding him!"
The phone dropped from Yuki's now limp hand and clattered noisily to the floor. He distantly registered Hiro's frantic voice buzzing through the speaker, but his mind was focused elsewhere.
He snapped back to his senses and ran back to the bedroom to where Shuichi was.
"Shu-"
The bed was empty.
"Shit!"
He ran into the adjoining bathroom.
Empty.
"Shu?"
Back into the bedroom.
He felt a stinging ice breeze on his face.
The curtains billowed in the wind from the open window.
He ran to the window and looked out.
Fresh footprints led away from the house. Large clumsy boot prints and a trail of something- or someone- dragged along the snow.
Hope you enjoyed that chapter, as always please reveiw :D next chapter should be up soon...
