Chapter 34.
" NOOOOOOOOOOOO THIS CAN'T BE!!!!! IT CAN'T BE TRUE NO NO NO I WON'T BELIEVE IT!!!!" Manta cried crazily as the others continued staring up at the TV screen. Tears streamed down Yoh's face as he stared at Manta. His face turned pale.
" This is....this is all my fault....'' Yoh gasped his face turning paler by the minute. Manta dropped to his knees grabbing at his hair and screaming. sobbing hysterically and starting in coughing fits.
" M...M...Ma.Manta...." Horo looked at him the boy tearing at his hair and screaming. A nurse soon walked in by the comotion.
" Whats going on!!!??" She asked " Whats wrong with the little boy!?" She asked fearfully. Ryu grabbed her shoulder and pointed to the TV screen and whispered something in her ear. The woman nodded. " Perhaps he should stay here in the hospital in the bed beside Asakura..." She suggested. Horo looked at the nurse " Th..ats a good Idea..."
" I'm sorry but you'll have to leave here for the night..." The nurse said to Ryu and Horo Horo. They nodded and went on their way both of their eyes filled with tears as they looked back at Manta and Yoh.
" Shhh......its ok.....its ok...." The nurse whispered after turning the TV off. She carefully lifted up the crying boy and placed him on the bed moving it very close to Yoh's. " Stay here for the night honey...don't worry about paying anything,..I'll bring up some more food and pleasent movies to watch. She handed him Pajamas to wear and closed the door.
" Manta-chan..." Yoh said weakly his voice cracked.
" Yoh...Yoh-kun..." He sobbed taking his clothes off. Yoh watched him admiring his fragile body he had imagined his skin to be baby soft.
Yoh sighed heavily a great anguish in his chest. " I... I don't know...this is...all of my fault...I don't know how you'll ever forgive me...I...I'm sorry I'm sorry this ever happened!" Yoh cried loudly. "I.. I thought I could....I thought I could get through to him...let you live with me...but...I should have never gone over there..its all my fault!! I should have never tried..I wanted to make you happy...but now..because of me its even worse..." He burried his head in his hands and continued to sob
" Why...would you want me to be happy why would you...let him beat you and still continue...all for me...why would you do that?" Manta asked his voice dead and empty inside.
Yoh looked at him his eyes wide and filled with tears.
The nurse came in quietly with food, movies and video games.
" The doctor said You can stay as long as Asakura...since the hospital was given more than what the bill was...'" She explained handing them large bowls of Udon soup.
Yoh nodded.
" Good night then...if you need me then pull the switch.." she closed the door and locked it.
" Yoh-kun..." Manta whispered quietly. " Whats going to happen to me?" He asked sobbing.
" Don't worry....I'll protect you..I'll be here for you...even if...no I won't let them take you away...I won't...I'll take care of you from now on..." He whispered lovingly.
" Yoh-kun...why are you...acting this way..." He looked at him in shock. Yoh cringed standing up off the bed and walking slowly twords him.
" Yoh-kun!! Don't Your too badly hurt!!!" Manta sobbed as he came closer.
" I don't care about that anymore..." He whispered from behind him kneeling down and taking him into his arms " All that matters is you recovering..." Yoh whispered.
Manta blushed. " You really are my best friend." He said softly *~ Does he...Does he love me?*~ Manta thought quickly but then shook it out of his head *~ it must be pity,*~
Yoh breathed as he continued to hold him. " Your mother...was a kind woman Manta..I'm sorry....I didn't really know her and I never knew your sister... in a way..I wish I had...but..I...know your father..and I...Hate is a strong word...but thats how I feel about him..I'm so sorry...please...please don't be sad forever and never blame yourself.."
" Yoh..kun..." Manta cried. " Its not your fault he's insane..." He whiped his eyes.
" It'll be ok..." He hugged Manta tighter as they wept together.
" NOOOOOOOOOOOO THIS CAN'T BE!!!!! IT CAN'T BE TRUE NO NO NO I WON'T BELIEVE IT!!!!" Manta cried crazily as the others continued staring up at the TV screen. Tears streamed down Yoh's face as he stared at Manta. His face turned pale.
