Hy guys. It's Misha here with a new story. You guys know how sucker I am for happy endings and fluff. So, as much as I like a badass aki. I also love when he is sometimes fragile. And Asami isn't a big bad crime lord and takes care of him.
So, without further ado let's get on with this story.
It was hot in japan. And when you say hot it meant the sun was practically burning the people alive. People were using umbrellas and shelter to take refuge from this scorching heat.
But one silver blond was being too stubborn. When he was done with his usual work he was dead tired.
He had an hour to kill time till his next shoot. He thought of going to the Caffey to cool off but when he reached their, it was full of people since it was lunch break for office workers.
Akihito sighed heavily thinking his options.
'I can't go to penthouse. I'll take too long... Sion is nearby. But is it alright to go?'
Akihito looked around himself then to the sky shielding his eyes from the sun. He was drenched in sweat. Asami's office secret room with A.C on sounds too great to leave.
'Sion it is then' nodding to himself he walked.
Fifteen minutes later he found himself outside the building. Taking a look at the height of the building he walked forward to the entrance.
A hand shot out to block his way when he was at the doors. He raised his eyebrow silently asking the guard what his problem was.
"The club opens at night kid".
"I know genius."
When he again tried to walk, the guard caught his arm and pushed him back. Akihito staggered and narrowed his eyes.
"You can't enter unless you have a membership card or appointment. Which i doubt you have, considering your getup. And Reporters are prohibited."
The guard finished pointing to Akihito's camera.
Now Akihito is a stubborn man as it is. But today in this heat his brain was practically fried. The fifteen minute walk wasn't nice either. Now he had to stand and argue with this dumb shit too.
"Listen man I'm not in the best mood to argue why don't you call Suoh or Kirishima-san and let them know I'm here. I'm sure they won't mind".
"Using the names of higher ups won't get you inside kid. Now get lost before I make you".
Akihito couldn't believe it. He has been standing here for some time now but the hulk of a guy won't believe him. He has already lost half hour of his precious time. Should he go back now? But only thinking of taking another fifteen minutes long walk was enough to make him slump.
And this black shit in 3 piece suit was looking waay too smug about himself. And being the mischievous imp he was, he wanted to remove it. So, mind being made he removed the sweat from his face and pulled out his phone.
"Asami"
Hearing the voice already made him feel better. A bit.
"Hey 'sami..."
Asami looked surprised and looked at the phone to double check if it's really Akihito.
Which is correct but Akihito usually call him at night asking about when he is coming home or when he has a stakeout.
Calling in the middle of the day? That's one new.
"Akihito what trouble did you get yourself in?"
"Hey I'm offended. What makes you think I'm in trouble".
"Your call...!"
"..."
"..."
"Sigh... I'm not in trouble 'sami"
For the first time Asami noticed Akihito seemed weary. And the rarely called nickname.
"Are you alright?"
"Mhmm... Just tired. And not feeling well. So, Asami?"
"Yes?"
"Umm I wanted to rest a bit you know but home is too far and I don't think I can make it. So..."
"So..?"
"I thought I could rest in Sion?"
"..."
"Umm if I'm disturbing something then it's fine. I'm going home. Bye"
"Wait... Come."
"But..."
"Akihito it's fine. Where are you? I'll have Suoh pick you up".
"No need. I'm outside."
"Outside.. as in?"
"Sion".
"How long have you been there?"
"Counting the time we have talk... I guess half hour."
"And you didn't come in, why?"
"Well...
Akihito pointed the phone towards the guard
*Hey you. See? I'm talking with your boss. He is expecting me. So can I go in now?*
*You think I'll believe boss has time to talk this long? And with a brat like you? Get lost kid. This is my fiñal warning*.
"You hear? We have been at this for fifteen minutes straight. Really Asami how annoying your goons can be?"
By this time the guard outside Sion was practically boiling with anger.
"I'll show you who is annoying brat".
And with that he pushed Akihito, who made contact with a wall. The phone slipped out of Akihito's hand with the ongoing call.
"Ugh... Hey, will you stop? I'll throw up on you".
Without listening the guard wrapped his hand around Akihito's neck and leaned closer.
"Get lost kid. Don't make me do something really bad to you".
"Fuck….off".
Bad choice of words it seems. He was pulled and slammed against the wall a second time. The world seems disoriented.
Akihito was literally panting. His breathing wasn't cut off completely but it was getting hard to breathe.
He wasn't feeling well. He was hot. And the weather wasn't making him any better either.
Suddenly the guard was pulled from him. He coughed and slid down the wall breathing hard.
His vision swirled. He closed his eyes tightly and gulped. Trying hard not to throw up.
*****
Asami could hear everything on the phone. His blood boiled when he heard the guard roughly handling Akihito. By Akihito's voice he knew something was wrong with him.
He wouldn't call him if he wasn't at his limit. Asami knew his stubborn kitten well.
Without pulling the phone from his ear he walked out of his office and outside.
Kirishima who was beside him saw how tense he got while talking on the phone and followed. He couldn't helped but sigh. 'What did Takaba-sama did now to make Asami-sama this angry?'
Everyone in Asami's inner circle knew only Takaba-sama could get emotions from a normally stoic man.
The sight that greeted them when they were outside of Sion though, had Kirishima stunned.
Asami didn't miss a step and immediately pulled the guard off of Akihito and pushed him to the side.
That pulled Kirishima out of his stupor.
He glared at the guard who immediately straighten up and bowed.
"Sir this kid was..."
"Save it".
Kirishima saw Asami trying to pull the pale Akihito up.
The moment he got up though he pushed Asami aside and vomited.
Asami immediately pulled his handkerchief and supported Akihito when after dry heaving a bit he was sliding down again from the strain.
Asami patted his sweaty cheek lightly "Akihito".
But gave up trying to get a reaction when he saw the unfocused dazed eyes.
Asami cleaned Akihito's mouth and maneuvered him to rest his head against his shoulder. With his left hand on Akihito's waist, Asami ran his right hand on Akihito's cheek and through his hair.
He frowned realizing he has a fever.
"Akihito?"
"...mmm"
Seeing that Akihito is still conscious but tired Asami took him bridal style and into Sion.
Suoh was already there by the commotion.
"Deal with him."
Suoh bowed understanding the order.
The guard was in for it.
"Kirishima where's Miyazaki".
"I called him sir. He would be here in a few".
Usually Akihito will throw a tantrum when Asami did anything remotely affectionate in public. But he was pretty out of it to realize how people saw him in Asami's arms till they reached his office.
Kirishima automatically did all the work of opening doors since his boss's hands were full. Quite literally.
Asami put Akihito on the bed and bent to take off his shoes.
"Stop"
Hands freezing midway, Asami turned towards Akihito with a raised eyebrow, who was now sitting.
"I'll take them off myself".
"It's fine. Lie down properly".
"NO..!"
This time Asami's hand was caught. Asami was confused to say the least.
"Asami I don't want you touching my shoes"
"What? Why?" He narrowed his eyes.
"Umm don't look at me like that. I don't like it when you touch my shoes. Like you shouldn't do that. It feels weird".
"Akihito I took off more than your shoes on a regular basis and you are complaining about them now?"
"It's not that bastard. Just ... I don't know how to explain it. Kind of respect I guess? Like you shouldn't be sitting there. You should be beside me..!"
Realizing the depth of his words Akihito turned pink and looked away.
Asami's eyes widened in shock. And slowly a satisfied smile formed on his face.
"I'm glad to hear you respect your lover but I assure you we are far from these boundaries. Besides, I like doing everything related to you and YOU."
Akihito immediately flushed scarlet and buried his face in his hands.
"Bastard you did not just say that..!"
Asami chuckled and continued his task. This time without any complaints from Akihito.
"Asami-sama Miyazaki-sensei is here".
Asami nodded and stood up. Kirishima escorted the doctor inside, who after greeting them turned to check Akihito.
Asami stood there scrutinizing his every move.
A few moments later Miyazaki-sensei stood up.
"Asami-sama he has a fever and dehydration. I'm guessing it's because of his work in this weather."
"As I've told you time and time again Takaba-sama please drink water. Lots of it."
"Hey, I do drink water".
"Really? Why do I find that unbelieving?"
"Is there anything else wrong?" the sound of Asami's voice cut through their banter. The doctor turned to him and replied.
"No, Asami-sama I don't find anything else wrong. In this weather it is understanding. And I know for a fact that Takaba-sama doesn't drink water that much. But you need to make sure that it is important otherwise you'll lose your health and end up in bed in this weather".
"Alright. You are dismissed."
The doctor took his leave. Kirishima left with him leaving a basin and cloth. Asami took the cloth drenched it in water and brought it to Akihito after squeezing it.
"Lie down Akihito".
"I'm fine Asami. Really. I should be going to my next shoot. It's getting late".
"No. you are not going anywhere. Lie still now".
Asami pushed him back down when Akihito hesitated and put the wash cloth on his forehead.
"Cold"
Mumbled Akihito but closed his eyes nonetheless when Asami's fingers went through his hair. Asami chuckled. Which brought him back to the amusing eyes of the crime lord. He frowned. Seeing the gears turning in his kitten's head Asami reminded him.
"I mean it Akihito. If you so much as got up from the bed, let alone leave this room. You'll be in for it."
"What will you do to a sick person exactly?"
"Oh I have a few things in mind. I dare you to try any stunt and you'll find out. Though I don't you'll survive in this condition". Contemplated Asami with a hand on his chin.
Akihito's eyes widened. Any punishment from Asami was… worth the crime I guess. His body warmed more thinking about the consequences. But the twinkle on the amused golden eyes told him his thoughts has been read.
"Bastard…"
Asami chuckled ruffling his hair.
"Sleep Akihito. I'll wake you in a few when the food and meds arrive".
Closing his eyes Akihito did just that. He was tired and so passed out promptly.
Sometime after he was woken but was so tired and hot. He heard Soft murmurs and being sat with the help of pillows and an arm supporting him. A spoon was at his mouth, he automatically opened his mouth and ate. After the meds he was asleep again with a soft thumping of a heartbeat in his ear, fingers through his hair and kiss on his forehead. He was in heaven indeed. Getting sick wasn't so bad at all.
That's it guys. This was sitting in my laptop for a while now. So, I decided to complete it somewhat and get on with my other stories. Any ideas are appreciated. Take care ^.^)/
