The rating has gone up, because I decided to make chapter two more detailed. -cough-
Eiji had ignored him.
He had continued to go about his daily activities as if nothing were going on for the next two weeks. But that didn't stop Yunokawa. Eiji knew it was partially his own fault, as he had been stupid enough to reply to the man after his first message, but really. He didn't need to keep harassing Eiji.
Eiji would just be sitting there with family, friends, by himself, or with Oishi.. And his phone could go off or he would get an e-mail saying something along the lines of 'Has he dumped you yet?' or 'He'll come to his senses when he realizes he gave up his dream for you.'
At first it had been easy enough to ignore. But then he started sending more and more. When Eiji didn't respond, he would send multiple messages. None of them were actually physically threatening, but definitely counted as harassment. Still he did his best just to ignore them. To not respond.
He also didn't know how to tell Oishi. It wasn't that he was trying to keep it a secret from him, but he was at a loss as to what to say. So he said nothing.
At the current moment, he was sitting with Fuji at his and Tezuka's apartment. Fuji was on the floor with Emi, while Eiji was taking over the couch. Tezuka was in the kitchen.
"I still need so much stuff…" Eiji whined, rubbing at his stomach as he felt it cramp up a little. He had a notebook propped up on his legs and was chewing on his pen in thought while making a list of things he and Oishi still had to get. "It's so much money, too."
Fuji frowned up at him. "How much more do you need?" He asked.
Eiji grinned sheepishly. "Almost everything."
His family was helping out, sure. But they weren't going to buy everything for them. And while he worked quite a bit, and it was definitely better than no job, he still wasn't sure how they were going to be able to afford it. His sister kept trying to hint at throwing him a baby shower, but Eiji wasn't stupid enough to believe he would get the big stuff there. Although he would be extremely thankful for whatever he did.
There was a knock at the door, and as Fuji got up to answer it he felt his stomach cramp up again. It was a weird feeling. Eiji drew in a sharp breath. This had been happening for the better part of the last few hours. But all of a sudden it was really starting to hurt.
None the less, he smiled through the pain as Oishi followed Fuji into the sitting area.
"Hey," Oishi grinned, sitting down on the floor by Emi and leaning over to make faces at her.
"Hey." Eiji replied, rubbing at the spot the pain had been only a moment before. "I'm about ready to go home." He yawned. "I'm just going to go to the bathroom."
Heaving himself up off of the couch and made his way down the hall. Taking care of his business, he went over to the sink and turned the knob for hot water when the pain struck again. This time, it was like nothing he had ever felt before. Pain so strong he was seeing white and a prickly feeling went up his spine. Reaching out, he attempted to turn the faucet off. Gripping the edge of the sink he desperately called out Oishi's name as loud as he could before everything went black.

When Eiji woke up it was obvious he was in the hospital. He was alone in the room, with its boring white walls and medical equipment. He felt strange. It was an empty feeling. At first he thought it was because he was alone and unsure of how he got there, but quickly realized he was missing something.
