Kenma-
Kuroo finally lets me go see Hinata, it's been 3 days, his mom came down from what I heard. Natsu doesn't even know her brother is this sick.
He hasn't woken up either. They're taking him to an MRI today, and to do an EEG to see if he's still active in his head.
I have to believe that he is, I've been sitting next to him for the last few hours, playing my new game. I explain everything to him, because I know he would ask about everything.
The doctor and a set of nurses come in to wheel him to get him prepared. Kuroo watches them with heavy eyes, I just focus on my game once again. I can't think about it, I can't dwell on this thought.
He's my best friend, I don't want to lose him.
"Hey, where are they taking Hinata?"
I look up, and see Akashi and Bokuto.
"MRI and some other tests…" Kuroo sighs, taking a long drink of his black coffee from the vending machine down the hall. He's been skipping school to make sure he's here in case Hinata needed something, or if he woke up, then he wouldn't be alone.
No matter how he may act, he really does care, and he's a really good person.
"Is he okay?" Bokuto questions, his eyebrows furrowed.
"Yeah, at the moment," Kuroo lies.
Akashi squints at him, giving him a dark look, "You know, you're fucking terrible at lying."
I get up, "I'm gonna grab some milk," and walk towards the vending room.
As I'm slowly walking back to Hinata's room, I can overhear the nurses.
"I can't believe it, is he going to be okay?" The shorter of the group whispers.
"I don't know, they expected the worst, but this is absolutely… I can't believe anything anymore. They told us nothing else, besides, all of his medications couldn't have caused this. It has to be something else," the head nurse sighs.
"Has anyone informed his parents? Or the children who have been staying with him since he was admitted? They need to be informed," a newer nurse presses.
"We can only wait and watch right now, maybe it'll turn out okay," the tallest one coaxes, and they disperse.
I rush back to Hinata's room, and I'm greeted by Kageyama and Sugawara.
"Hey, took you long enough," Bokuto grins.
"The nurses, they were talking about Hinata out there," I say, and Sugawara walks up to me.
"Did they say anything?" He questions, gently laying a hand on my shoulder.
I shake my head, "No, they were really vague, but it sounded bad. He's not back yet, I'm worried."
Kuroo gets up, and he's wheeled back in at that moment.
Kageyama tenses up at the sight.
Sugawara covers his mouth.
And then I remember that they haven't seen him since he fell into the coma.
He's hooked back up to the ventilation machine, more IV's are given, and more pain medication is given based on his higher than usual heart rate.
Kuroo is ushered out by a nurse.
My heart drops.
"Can he hear me?" Kageyama asks, I could barely make out the words, even with him standing right next to me.
"I've been talking to him, I like to think he can," I mumble, and go to take Kuroo's window seat so Kageyama can sit next to Hinata.
Sugawara goes to the left side of the bed, gently fixing the orange hat on his head, and fixing the blanket that was seemingly just thrown onto him without any regard for his comfort.
"It'll be okat, Shouyou. We're waiting for you, we've been training a lot. Everyone is excited to see you again. Natsu came by and brought cookies with your mom for your birthday yesterday, and I got you a new hat," Kageyama smiles, holding his hand.
I see tears rolling down his cheeks, and I glance back down at my game, it's an intimate moment that I shouldn't witness.
"I love you, you can't die, okay? You have to come back to us, to me. You're the best damn person I've ever met, and I can't lose you! Natsu can't lose you! No one should have to! Dammit Hinata, come back!" He sobs.
And I feel the tears running down my face too.
"Hey, Hinata?" Kageyama says with a cracked voice.
Nothing, I can't glance up, I'm terrified of what's going on.
"Hinata!" Kageyama screams.
Kuroo and the nurse run in.
I screw my eyes shut.
This isn't happening.
