Kai had been walking down the hallway for some time now peering into rooms to see if he could find the one which Rei was in. so far he hadn't been successful.

Just as he was about to give up hope and turn back he looked into the last room and there he was. Finally Kai had found Rei. He had doctors all around him and they all were writing something down on paper. Kai waited for the doctors to walk out before he walked in.

When he got in there he sat down quietly next to the bed, assuming Rei was asleep or unconscious. He was knocked out of his staring trance when he heard a small, weak voice whisper his name. As his eyes and brain focused he realized Rei was awake.

Kai's heart nearly leapt out of his body with joy. He smiled warmly at the boy in front of him. Suddenly Kai heard some noises and thought it might be the doctors coming back and fearing that he might get in trouble for being in there without permission and would be thrown out of the hospital, he hid behind the door signaling to Rei to be quiet

But it wasn't the doctors who walked in. to Rei's shock and horror/disbelief in his door way now stood Mariah.

"Hello. I heard you had had an accident. What happened my poor little kitty?" Mariah said in a mocking tone.

When Kai came to the realization of whom Rei's unwelcome visitor was he snapped the door shut and made sure Mariah knew about his presence in the room. "GET OUTTA HERE BITCH! YOU HAVE NO PLACE NEAR REI!!" he boomed.

Mariah glared at Kai, baring her fangs before going back out of the room mumbling, "I'll see him soon anyway.."

Kai looked back to Rei who had his head down, and was gripping the sheets tightly. When Kai tried to lift his koi's head so he could look into his eyes and try and make it all better, Rei pulled away and turned so his whole body was facing away.

Kai was hurt by this but knew he couldn't give up on Rei. It was then he felt someone's gaze upon him and looked up to see that it was Rei's. he had unshed tears in his eyes and a sad look on his face. "I'm sorry…" he said only just audible.

Kai gave him a small smile and embraced the neko-jin. Rei hugged tightly back before asking Kai a question, "that note I left you… did you read the back?" Rei seemed to be acting shyly. Kai shook his head. Rei continued. "I-I-it had a poem on it I had written just for you. You wanna hear it?"

Once again, not saying any words, Kai just nodded. Rei took a deep breath then started.

" I know that I'm your strength,

the one you come to, to make the pain go away.

The one who comforts and shelters you,

Who will love you forever and a day."

"I know that I'm the only one you can trust,

the only person you think cares,

though I'm the only one you'll let help,

because no one else would dare."

"I know you think you need me,

believe me I know you do.

But the truth is I need you more,

Then you could ever need me too." 

*the next day*

Kai was sitting on the couch next to Rei. "I'm pretty lucky that I got only a sprained ankle from that fall huh?" Kai nodded. Then he looked up. "do you want to go to the hot tub?" Rei was surprised that this suddenly came up but thought it was a good idea anyway.

"sure." He replied simply. They got changed into their swimsuit and Kai carried Rei down stairs towards the hot tub but stopped at the spot where rei had slipped when he noticed something. Then he realized, 'Rei's accident was no accident!'
