KMC: Hmmm... Why I am having the art contest, to expand my site, of course. I love
having other people's works on my site... so if you could help out, that would be
awesome.
Bakura: *Is chucking rocks at random stuff*
Yugi: Damn, KMC! What did you do to him?
KMC: I have no frikkin clue.
Yugi: He knocked Joey unconscious and now he is throwing rocks at birds! I think you
triggered something when you messed with his mind in the fanfic.
KMC: *Takes out a cattle prod and walks up to Bakura*
*ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
TTTTTTTTTTT* That should calm him down.
Bakura: *Is twitching on the floor*
Yugi: God, she is going to kill us all!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Yugi sat in the waiting room, patiently wondering when Dr. Kris was going to return and tell him of his friend's conditions. Bakura had come to, then blacked out again. Joey hadn't woken up at all. Just then, the shorthaired doctor came around the corner and beckoned to Yugi.
"Well, we do have some good news. Joey is awake and asking to see you. I'll let you go in now," she said gently, opening Joey's door.
Yugi ran in and saw his blond friend sitting in bed, propped up by pillows. He looked so small right now, and so tired. Yugi walked over and sat in a chair.
"Hey Joey, how are you feeling?" asked Yugi.
"I'm all right, I guess. Why am I here? And where's Bakura?" asked Joey, staring around.
"Well, Joey... I called you and Bakura last night to see if everything was going all right, but no one answered. I was concerned so I came over and when I walked into your room, both you and Bakura were unconscious. Both of you had fevers so I called the hospital. Now here you are," said Yugi," You needed treatment that I couldn't provide."
"That's for sure," said Dr. Kris walking in," If you had left the two, they would have gotten worse. It appears that Joey had a type of chest cold... yet he didn't realize it because the symptoms didn't manifest themselves too obviously. Since Joey didn't realize his sickness, the cold spread and got worse... getting into his head. There it turned into a type of pneumonia that caused headache and chest pain. Bakura must've contracted it from taking care of you and being at such close distance. He must've been tired and weakened by something, weakening his immune system, allowing Joey's sickness to spread to him."
"Man... Dr. Kris? Will Joey and Bakura be alright?" asked Yugi.
"Of course! Joey and Bakura have great medicines in those IV's. The sickness won't know what hit them. Just let the two rest here a couple of days, or it's going to knock them out again," stated Kris.
"Is Bakura still out of it?" asked Yugi.
"Yeah, but I'm sure he'll come around. He'll be all right with a bit of rest," said Kris.
"Can I go see him?"
"I'm sure you can, but is it okay with Joey?" asked Dr. Kris.
"Sure, I want to go back to sleep anyway," said Joey, snuggling into his bed.
Yugi smiled and got up, walking out of Joey's room and heading towards Bakura's. He stepped in and looked at the pale form in the bed. Bakura's white hair was spread out gently over his pillow and his breathing was normal. Yugi sighed with relief, because his friend was breathing right and sat down in a chair beside Bakura's bed. Softly, he brushed his finger over his friend's face. To his surprise, Bakura's eyes opened slowly.
"Yugi?"
"Hey Bakura, you finally awake?" asked Yugi softly.
Bakura sat up, rubbing his head. He looked around and sighed.
"Yeah,"
"Good, I was getting worried,"
Bakura lied back down and closed his eyes.
"Did they figure out was wrong with Joey and me?" asked Bakura.
"Yes,"
Just then, Dr. Kris walked in and smiled.
"Well isn't this a nice surprise. Both of my patients are awake. Good!" she said, walking over and pulling out a light, "Open your mouth and say ah, Bakura."
Bakura opened his mouth and the doctor examined his throat, and then his eyes and ears. She smiled and gave him a gentle pat on the back.
"Lift up your shirt there, honey, so that I can listen to your heart,"
Bakura felt a bit embarrassed as he lifted his shirt, and when Dr. Kris put the stethoscope to his chest he gasped at how cold it was. Kris apologized and breathed on it, to warm it up. When she placed it back on his skin, it was better.
"Well Bakura, you're still a bit congested, but the medicine should clear that up. You'll be all right hon," said Kris.
"Thank you Dr. Kris," said Yugi.
"Hey buddy, it's my job. No need to thank me," said Kris, checking the IV over Bakura's bed.
Yugi just smiled.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
A few days later Joey and Bakura were able to go home. Yugi, Tea, and Tristan were there outside the hospital when Dr. Kris and a nurse wheeled the two out in wheel chairs. Tea ran over and hugged both of them, tears brimming in her eyes.
"I'm so glad that you two are all right!" she cried, holding them tightly.
"Tea, as much as I appreciate the attention, you are cutting off mine and Bakura's air supply," Joey gasped.
Blushing, Tea let go and stepped back. Joey and Bakura got up out of the chairs and all of them made their way home.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Soon it was just Joey and Bakura, walking along towards their homes. Joey turned to his white haired friend and smiled.
"Hey Bakura, thanks a lot. I mean, for taking care of me in the beginning. You made me feel better when I was in a lot of pain. You're a great friend,"
Bakura shuffled his feet and looked away.
"But I wasn't able to help you when you needed me most, I was... ummm..."
"Don't feel bad Bakura, Dr. Kris told me that you fainted and were sick yourself. How were you supposed to take care of me if you weren't even able to stand up yourself? You did the best you could, and that's all I ask," said Joey, patting his friend on the back.
Bakura felt bad about not telling Joey the truth. But this was something that he couldn't tell him, at risk of being beaten by his Yami. So, just smiling and nodding Bakura nodded.
"Thanks Joey, for understanding," said Bakura.
And the two friends made their way home, healthy once again.
