The day that Takumi could leave the hospital, there was no short of celebration inside his hospital room. He would still need to undergo physical therapy and they still had to figure out how he was going to finish high school, but he was going home before Gii started university. The Saki heir had procured them a nice apartment/condo close to the university so that he would always be able to be with Takumi when he wasn't in classes.
A small party was held in the hospital room, complete with cake and party favors. No one had to wear a mask as Takumi's immune system had rebounded at near-miraculous speed. Aside from the continued limb/muscle weakness, one Hayama Takumi had been proclaimed healthy.
Gii was beyond the moon that he was getting to take his beloved home. It felt like it had been way too long since Takumi had been confined here in these walls, to undergo tests and treatments to return him back to normal functionality. He was happy they were finally getting to put the stressful months behind them as he helped Takumi from the bed into an awaiting wheelchair. Takumi's arms had been responding better than his legs to the physical therapy and he was still very shaky when he walked. A car was awaiting the two betrothed to whisk them away to the new condo.
"Hayama-san, with continued physical therapy I believe that in another few months' time you will be walking and able to move normally again. Today however, we celebrate that you are leaving these walls and continuing on with your life. We all wish you the best success and a bright future," the doctor said as Takumi was settled in to the rolling chair.
"Thank you for taking such good care of me, and for finding a treatment that worked. Gii and I are so very grateful," the young man replied, both he and Gii offering the doctor and nurses a bow. Then Gii was pushing him free from the room he'd been in for so long and to the awaiting elevator.
Gii helped his beloved into the awaiting car and a nurse rolled the chair back inside once Takumi was safely in the vehicle. Gii joined him and immediately grasped his hand tightly as they rolled away from the hospital, Takumi turning to watch it fade behind him out the window. He had a lot of work ahead of him but finally he was free.
"I'm afraid we have a long drive ahead," Gii murmured. "My university isn't that close to Shidou."
Takumi turned away from the window to smile at his future husband reassuringly. He let out a content sigh as he leaned his head on Gii's shoulder, happy to do something as simple as napping to pass the time.
"I don't mind. I'm just happy to be going home," Takumi replied softly and Gii felt a fluttering warmth inside of him as the words sank in.
Home.
It turned out that both of the passengers of the ride ended up falling asleep, being woken by the driver when they reached the condo. Gii happily scooped up his beloved to carry him inside, ignoring Takumi's protests about needing to use his legs and feeling like a girl – though truly Takumi was enjoying being held so close by Gii. The condo was reached through several security doors and a private elevator – it was of course, the penthouse that had come into possession of the Saki heir. It took up the entire top floor and even had its own rooftop garden.
Gii had to momentarily set down his love so he could open up the front door, but then he was scooping up the other – who let out a rather adorable squeak – and carrying him inside.
The condo boasted an impressive four large bedrooms (including the master suite) and one guest bathroom. The kitchen was full of stainless steel and dark wood cabinetry, already fully stocked for the two. The kitchen opened up to the dining room area which flowed right into the large living room. The floors were mostly hardwood, with carpet for the bedrooms and the living room area. A large tv and fireplace were both available for use. Famous paintings were carefully hung on the walls for decoration as well as a few large antique vases. A combination of lamps, recessed lights and ornate hanging lights lit up the area.
From the living/dining area were a pair of French doors leading outside to the terrace and rooftop garden.
The entranceway was brightly lit and open into the living area, the flooring here a nice stone tile. Gii set Takumi down and helped him get his shoes off before sliding a strong arm around the smaller male's waist to steady him as they explored their home – Gii had actually bought the condo rather shortly before Takumi's release and he hadn't taken the time to fully look at it himself aside from the initial visit to purchase. He'd been staying in the apartment near the hospital until Takumi was free.
Takumi brushed his hands over the fabrics and wood that made up the furniture, wobbling a little on still-weakened legs. Gii was careful to move at a pace that wasn't too fast for his lover, watching Takumi moreso than he was looking at the furnishings.
The bedrooms were rather alike and one had been converted into a study with a couple solid desks and plenty of bookcases. There wasn't anything super remarkable about the guest bathroom either, but it was still quite decadent.
The master bedroom was quite something to behold. The four-poster bed was draped with dark blue fabric with sheets and covers to match. The wood was dark and ornately carved at the head and footboards. French doors opened up to the rooftop garden. The floor was a soft plush carpet and curtains framed the windows. Two sturdy doors led to a huge walk in closet plenty big for the both of them and to the master bathroom.
The master bath had heated flooring – marble tiles – dark wood cabinetry and a large shower that had multiple showerheads and a bench to sit on. There was also a huge tub that would easily fit both young men that was partly set into the floor, with stairs leading in. Two doors were in here as well – to the linen closet and toilet respectively. Skylights helped the fancy wall lights bring light into the room. There were double sinks with polished chrome fixtures and white marble basins.
"Gii, I would have been happy in a simple apartment," Takumi commented with a soft laugh. "But I will admit this is all really nice." He was starting to wobble a bit more and Gii easily scooped him back into his arms, heading back to the living room and gently depositing Takumi on one of the couches before taking a seat next to him.
"I didn't wear you out too much, did I?" the Saki heir asked as he took in the slightly worn out expression on Takumi's face and the way his legs were shaking just a little. "Did I push you walking too much?"
Takumi leaned against the other, smiling as he cuddled. He made a soft noise as he shook his head, feeling like taking a nap even though both of them had slept in the car on the way to their new home. Gii's worried look turned to a gentle smile and he maneuvered the two of them to lay on the couch, cuddling Takumi's small frame close.
Sleep quickly overtook the two young men and they drifted off together into dreamland.
A/N: Honestly, I haven't felt like writing for quite some time. Still not feeling it 100% so updates may not be super speedy for a while. Have about 4 chapters left in this one before it's over.
