Kyoya

They had rushed to the hospital the moment Kyoya had Shima in his arms. In the car Kyoya held Shima close to him as if that would stop the blood rushing from her shoulder. He looked down at her face, his face distorted with worry and slight panic. Her face was perfectly still with a little blood trickling from her forehead and down her cheek after her head had made impact with the concrete square pillar.

"Shima….stay with us….please," Kyoya whispered. Kyoya couldn't see the world around him. He knew this wasn't like him. Then again he knew he had never felt this way about any woman either. He wanted to be the one to break Eudo's face for harming Shima and trying to take her away from them, but he knew his job was to get her to a safe place and stop her bleeding. He also knew he could leave it to Mori-sempai to take care of Eudo.

The time between when they arrived at the hospital and Mori-sempai and Honey-sempai arriving was a complete blur to Kyoya. He only remembered them getting Shima and Hikari onto stretchers and one particular argument he had with Hikaru.

"We're sorry, but those two are in critical condition and we need to do emergency procedures. We can't let you go back there just yet," one of the doctors said after Hikaru and Kyoya had tried to go back with Shima and Hikari. A few doctors had to hold them back while the electronic door was closing.

"Are you kidding me? Why can't we go back there? Those two mean a lot to our group! They're just like family!" Hikaru yelled. Tamaki put a hand on his shoulder and Kyoya's as well.

"I'm just as worried about those two are you two are, but right now us causing a rukus won't help the doctors heal them any quicker. So let's just sit down until the doctors come back and let us see them," Tamaki said. Kyoya glanced at Hiakru's face and wished he didn't. Hikaru was on the verge of breaking out in crying, or even shouting with grief. He had almost given up on ever seeing Hikari well ever again.

Shima, please be alright. I don't know what I would do if I couldn't see you again. Mori-sempai is taking care of the man who hurt you. Who tried to take you away from us. I promise, if you'll just wake up and stay with us I will never let anyone hurt you ever again. I no longer care if being with you would be beneficial to my family. I just want to see your smile again. Kyoya thought, looking back at the emergency room doors that were closed. Tamaki patted his shoulder.

"Come on Kyoya, this isn't like you. Let's go sit down so that Shima won't have to worry about you acting weird while she's in there," Tamaki said.

"I never thought I would say this but you are right Tamaki, this isn't like me. I can't let Shima see me like this now can I?" Kyoya muttered. Tamaki smiled and shook his head.

"No, you can't. Now come on," he said. They all went into the waiting room and tried to calm down while waiting for news about the girls. While Tamaki managed to keep Kyoya talking, calming him down, Hikaru wasn't faring too well. Kaoru tried to talk to him but Hikaru just kept to himself, getting more and more worried about Hikari. Kyoya noticed this.

"Hikaru," Kyoya said. Hikaru looked up from the ground at Kyoya.

"What is it sempai?" he muttered in a small voice.

"I know how you feel, I'm anxious to hear about Shima just as much as you are about hearing about Hikari," Kyoya said.

"Then why aren't you freaking out as much as I am?" Hikaru yelled at him, jumping up onto his feet. "If you love her as much as you claim then why don't you show it?"

"Because I know that even here we have images to maintain. Those two know that we will worry about them. What would be most important is that we are there when they wake up. Believe me, on the inside I am a mess but I shall not show it even though it would be perfectly acceptable to do so," Kyoya said.

"Well I'm not you okay? I'm so worried about Hikari that I can't even stand to sit down! Right now I don't care about my image or how I may look. All I care about is hearing the news that she will be okay as soon as possible!" Hikaru yelled. For once Haruhi didn't yell at him to keep his voice down. Everyone but Kyoya looked up at Hikaru sadly.

"You think my daughter will be defeated by the likes of that scum?" Honey-sempai's father said, walking up to them.

"You're daughter?" Hikaru said.

"Yes, my daughter. She has been missing for a long time now. One day this past week Mistukuni comes to me and tells me about a girl named Hikari he had met at school and how much she resembled what he remembered of his own sister. So, when he left for the rescue mission for the two girls, I came along, as did Takashi's father," Honey-sempai's father said.

"So, Hikari is your daughter and Honey-sempai's younger sister?" Hikaru said, slowly realizing the facts. Honey-sempai's father nodded.

"You see Hikaru? You're not the only one who is worried about Hikari. We all know how you feel and feel that same thing to a certain degree. Even though Kyoya doesn't show it he is very worried about Shima as well," Tamaki said.

"He's right. So why don't we have some faith in Hikari and Shima that they will pull through and wake up soon?" Haruhi said. Hikaru stared at the ground sadly and sighed, sitting down.

"Yeah, okay," he muttered. Kaoru put a hand on Hikaru's shoulder, giving him silent comfort.

A while later Honey-sempai and Mori-sempai arrived.

"How are they? How's their condition?" Honey-sempai yelled running in.

"Honey-sempai please don't yell in the hospital," Kyoya muttered.

"We don't know their condition yet. We've been stuck in this waiting room since we got here," Haruhi explained.

"Oh," Honey-sempai trailed off. He sat down next to his father and Mori-sempai next to his own father.

The next two hours were excruciating. Kyoya went from sitting down to pacing, to sitting back down again after Tamaki insisted that he sit down again. Hikaru was the same way. At one point Kaoru even had enough of it and he and Hikaru went on a walk around the hospital.

Why haven't they finished yet? Are the girls alright? Are they dead? What's going on? Were the girls in worse condition than we thought? Have they not woken up yet? Did something go wrong? What's going on in there? These questions kept racing around and around in Kyoya's mind and they were beginning to drive him to the breaking point. He had almost reached his limit when a doctor came into the waiting room.

"Are you all here for Shima and Hikari?" the doctor asked.

"Yes, we are," Kyoya said. He had been pacing at this point and Tamaki had just caught up with him to try and convince him to sit down again.

"They aren't awake, but you may see both of them now. Please, only one person at a time though," the doctor said.

"Thank you doctor," Honey-sempai's father said. The rest of them stood up and they all walked with the doctor to the room they had moved Hikari and Shima to. Haruhi waited behind so that she could lead Hikaru and Kaoru to the rooms whenever they got back.

When they arrived at the rooms Mori-sempai's father was the first one to go into Shima's room and Honey-sempai's father into Hikari's room. Kyoya sat down on a chair near the door to Shima's room and his leg started to bounce.

"So she's okay now, more or less," Kyoya muttered.

"Yeah, she's still alive, asleep, but alive. That's good news Kyoya," Tamaki said. Kyoya smiled a little.

"Yeah, thank goodness for that," Kyoya muttered. Tamaki patted Kyoya's back and they both remained silent while Kyoya waited for Mori-sempai's father to get out so that Mori-sempai could go in. After him it would be Kyoya's turn.

It was a painful 30 more minutes while he waited for the two to have their turns. When Mori-sempai's father had come out he started to talk to Kyoya but Kyoya wasn't really paying too much attention. Somehow Mori-sempai's father smiled at his lack of attention. When the door to Shima's room opened again Kyoya looked up at Mori-sempai who simply smiled and nodded at him. He went to sit next to his father and Kyoya stood up and walked into Shima's room, closing the door behind him.

Hikaru

Hikaru and Kaoru finally made it back to the waiting room.

"We're back," Kaoru said as they walked into the waiting room.

"What took you two so long?" Haruhi said standing up. "It's been nearly an hour since you left."

"Kaoru got us lost somehow," Hikaru said.

"Hey! I thought we were gonna keep that a secret. Besides, you should have been helping me in trying to find our way Hikaru," Kaoru complained.

"Excuse me if I have other things on my mind right now other than watching where we are going," Hikaru muttered. Kaoru just looked at him sadly.

"Speaking of which, we are allowed to see the girls now," Haruhi said. Hikaru's eyes widened.

"No way! Really? Where are their rooms?" Hikaru yelled.

"Shh. Keep your voice down in a hospital," Haruhi scolded him. Hikaru sighed.

"Okay, but just tell me where her room is Haruhi. Please!" Hikaru said, grabbing her by the shoulders and gently shaking her. She sighed.

"Follow me," she said. Hikaru let her go and he and Kaoru followed her to Hikari's room. When she arrived Honey-sempai and his father were sitting outside the room.

"We've already seen her and saved you a turn to seen her yourself Hika-chan!" Honey-sempai said. Hikaru smiled and nodded.

"Thanks Honey-sempai," he said. He took a deep breath and walked into the room.

Both Hikaru and Kyoya

They walked towards the beds and sat down on a chair beside the bed. They stared at the sleeping faces of the ones they loved and smiled.

Kyoya leaned forward, grabbed Shima's hand and kissed the back of it. "Please wake up soon. I miss your smile."

Hikaru leaned forward and kissed Hikari's forehead. "Please wake up soon. I miss your laugh."
